~Apperance~
Rancor is of lakotah/Navajo and English descent. He is an unremarkable-looking man in his early thirties, built as if had more muscle to him than it is readily apparent. His features are clean-cut, pleasant but not particularly handsome. Swarthy skin, Dark-haired with a few threads of grey in it, his eyes, however, aren't human: golden-green with metallic flecks in them his tapetum lucidum shines brightly in direct light. His movements are fluid and graceful, someone who is comfortable in their own skin. Carried with an air of a tightly coiled spring ready to release.
Outside of his fairly nondescript human form mentioned above his form and description vary substantially. Preferring forms and shapes of a predatorial nature to reflect his own nature.
