Name: Prof. Shamus Greg Pirino (Professor Shamus)
Age: 35 years
Gender: Male
Species: Anthro Cobra
Height: 6' exactly
Weight: 145 lbs.
Eyes: Golden colored with black slitted pupils
Legs: none actually, back end of a snake
Clothing: He doesn't really wear much clothing as his body shape prevents such things, but it also destorys the need for it. He has no legs and his body is covered in scales so there's nothing for him to hide really. But, based on school regulation, he does wear a bit of clothing. Usually a very casual vest or muscle shirt either black or white in color as they seem to look the best on him. Sometimes he has a belt hang around his mid-section just because he likes it. He doesn't have the ability to wear pants...
Physical Description: His upper half is very human, complete with long arms and a braod chest and shoulders. His head and face however are completely snake like in appearence with slight acceptions with his face muscles and movement. He can express himself just like anyone else and talks with others. His eyes are just slightly more forward facing and his fangs are smaller. Most noticable however is his neck fan typical of cobras. It starts at the sides of his face and moves down his neck and merges into his back around his waist. He usually leaves it flat against his sides but when he gets angry, it can flare up and he can be quite intimidating. His body is covered in thin hard scales that start off small around his face and near his muscles but braoden considerable as you move toward his tail. These scales gaive the illusion of very flexable skin that even shows his muscle definition and scars. They're colored a faded tan with black stripes and spots in various areas...
Personality: He's a very... unorthodox kinda guy. For starters, he has his students call him by his first name. Then there's his behavior. Normally, he's very laid-back and sort of arrogant, thinking mostly of himself and very little of others. But he seemes to be bi-polar, and tends to suddenly swing from "Get it yourself" to "How dare you ask such a thing of me!!!" in seconds. Spazztic might be a good word for it. His temper is short, almost microscopic and flares lighting quickly and quite often. Many have upset him without even knowing it. But, he's also quick to calm down usually, often too lazy to continue to hate someone. As a teacher, he's very strict and pays attention only to the students that wish to learn. The ones that sleep in the back may sleep so long as they don't snore. Wanna listen to music? Go ahead, just make sure he can't hear it. Some students find this great, but it's counterbalanced by his insane amounts of homework, frequent pop quizzes and 100 problem tests...
History: His history is pretty vague as he doesn't really tell anyone about it. But we know his father was an alcoholic and used to beat his mother. His mother would then get both angry and depressed and start to beat on little Shamus. He ran away to his grandparent's house where he lived until he went off to college. Eventually, he got his teaching degree and wound up here....
Likes: Reading, chess, card games, anything you can by yourself and in quiet tranquility.
Dislikes: Too many questions, disruptions, cheeky behavior, stubbornness, too much food.
Fears: absolutely none... well, he doesn't like clowns but not to the degree of fearing them.
Turn-ons: none, he hates others...
Sexual Preferrence: none really but I'd go with undecided...
Prized Possessions: Himself
Pets: Hector the cat
Magical Abilities: none
Weapons: his fangs
Friends: nope
Enemies: everyone
Subject: Ancient History

Sample post:
"Now, the Greeks were very clever people, able to conduct their lives very well. They created the foundations we have today, simple things like indoor plumbing. Now, this is back in 500 BC, mind you. Quite an achivement if rather crude..."
The serpent's voice carried forcefully over the class. The teacher had been talking nonstop and most students wanted to simply hang themselves at this point. Good.. This was the way Shamus taught his classes. Bore them to death, the ones that manage to stay awake are the ones that should graduate. Life isn't always interesting. When out in the business world, one can't fall asleep in the middle of an important meeting simply because it's boring. Grinning softly, the reptile turned about swiftly and began drawing on the bored. It was very crude, depicting a long bridge-like structure moving from the mountians to a little city...
"Now, how can tell me what this is? Come on now, speak up..."
