Toraris

Toraris, or Tori, is a halfbreed. Incubus and fox shifter, Tori never fit in with the shifter community his mother raised him in. Especially not after he turned sixteen and started emitting pheromones every time his high sex drive turned on. He very quickly became the most hated, accused of seducing betrothed and married men, and of confusing women. Women aren't as strongly affected as men, but they can still feel the pull of Tori's pheromones. Blood relation seemed to be the only way to remain unaffected. Tori's mother did her best to drown the scent by filling their house with numerous scented candles and incense. And even Tori tried to resist his urges. But after six months, it became very clear that Tori needed these urges fulfilled. He looked like he was wasting away.

So, Tori's mother bought him a two year lease at an apartment in the big city, with the agreement that he would finish out his high school education and get a job. Tori graduated a year early. Not through smarts alone; he definitely used his pheromones to his advantage. It also served his needs, being able to feed off sexual energy while making sure he was passing in the top ten percent of his classes. Then Tori got a job. Then lost it, again accused of seducing others, this time his coworkers. Then another job, then another. Eventually he gave up, and started doing online modelling. It made enough to get by. When he turned twenty one, he applied as a server at the nightclub a block from his apartment. He got it, and flourished. He was good at encouraging drunk patrons to buy more, with false promises to entertain them. The patrons were usually too drunk to try and follow up on those promises by the end of the night.

Tonight, Tori is lounging on his couch in a purple tee, his favorite purple galaxy hoodie, and a pair of green pj pants with little white foxes. He's swiping through on online hookup app, checking or crossing off users based purely on looks. Tori has no intention of getting into a committed relationship. But the app works well for satisfying his needs. Tori pauses on the profile of a young man with half shaved blue hair and multiple ear piercings. "Hot. Wonder if he's into small guys?" Tori checks the man as a yes to show his interest, then carries on. He tries to do one night stands, so that nobody gets attached, and is looking for a new one.
