Personality:
Donovan is a lovely person to be around but can get quite annoying in large doses. He is completely harmless and very friendly towards people he knows, and doesn't know. As an outgoing kind of person, Donovan loves making friends and meeting new people. However, he does tend to get a little over excited at times and this is when he gets annoying. He likes to play around a lot and acts very much like a child when he is hyperactive.
Like his shifted form, the canine, Donovan is very intelligent, although he doesn't like to brag about it, and if he has nothing to do, he gets easily bored and may become slightly destructive towards his surroundings. He is probably one of the most loyal and trusting people anyone will meet.
Background and History:
Donovan didn't have a very interesting past. He was born into a tight knit family in which neither of his parents were shapeshifters, but his other two siblings were. His eldest brother was a canine shapeshifter as well and helped Donovan learn to change at a young age. His older sister, the middle child, was a feline shifter. She would tease her little brother a lot, but despite that, she loved him dearly and was a vital part in teaching him how to use his shapeshifting abilities. His parents were very accepting people, and chose to believe that their shapeshifter children were blessed.
When Donovan started school, he turned very quiet and nervous because he worried his shapeshifting powers would 'malfunction' during classes and he would be revealed. But luckily for him, the lessons from his siblings made sure he was ok. He made friends very quickly and soon settled in with no problems at all.
When Donovan turned eighteen, he left high school and went into collage to study vetinary medicine, and later to split off to study animal psychology. On top of his studies, Donovan is trying to learn to control his shapeshifting abilities to the extent of holding his 'half-way' form.

Example Role Play (must be at least two FULL paragraphs):
[/b][/u]The sun sunk down behind the concrete forest ahead of him leaving an orange glow on the windows way above his head. Donovan's pace quickened. It would be dark very soon, and when it was dark...He daren't continue his thoughts. Glancing around quickly he noticed the way people slunk off into the shadows. And with the minute, he was the only one on an empty road. The inside building lights flicking off leaving loud neon on in the streets. The eerie lighting wasn't helping Donovan. He whipped his head around quickly. He could've sworn he'd seen something move.
His heart beat quickened along with his steps. His hands instictively slid into his jacket pockets, and immediately he felt more secure. It'd be ok. His flat was only a few minutes away now. He'd be fine. A car passed him almost silently, making him jump as he caught it in the corner of his eye. He sniffed the air warily, ducking into an alley, and, not before glancing either way, shifted into his canine form. With the animal's increased agility, he set off home as fast as his legs would take him.
Door slammed. Lights on. Lock clicked. Big sigh. Donovan dragged himself to his room and slumped on his bed. That was enough running for one night.

Anything Else?
Eh, sorry to ask, but when a person is a canine shapeshifter, do they become a specific breed of dog, or a general canine? Sorry if that's a silly question...
