Boar Form
When in boar form, Jeju is a colossus of a being, standing tall at a mighty 6'5''. He is covered from head to toe in a thick layer of fat, muscle, and bristly hair. When shifted, Jeju usually wears thick fur-trimmed leather armor and wields a combination hammer/shaman stick. Hidden on his person are a number of crushed herbs, reagents, and remedies that he uses for his crafts.

Human Form
When in human form, Jeju prefers to go shirtless, and carries a long, unkempt head of hair. He very rarely shifts into this form, usually only for his best friends and when he needs dexterity to accomplish what he needs.
Personality:
Jeju is a very utilitarian person. He never hesitates to say what's on his mind, and had an astonishing knack for analysis. Though he often says improper things, Jeju is a level-headed person even at the worst of times. However, he is definitely one to hold a grudge.
When angered, Jeju stops taking things easy, and immediately takes an authoritarian bent. His spur-of-the-moment decisions must be followed, or else he will react with exaggerated frustration, and constantly question the plan of action the others are taking. If pushed to fight, Jeju will do everything in his power to end a fight quickly, regardless of how painful it is for his opponent.
When meeting a friend, Jeju is very straightforward. Meetings often go by a rote schedule, and rarely stray from the day's plan. Jeju expects nothing more than cooperation from his friends, and gladly cooperates when his friends are in need.
When meeting their enemy, Jeju is quiet and withdrawn. He will outright refuse to work with his enemies, and will act stubbornly if forced to. However, Jeju is willing to put aside his differences with his enemies in an emergency.

History:
The Black family make for the single most powerful source of shamans and monks in all of Therian. The Blacks' extensive library of lore and nigh-endless garden of minerals and plants allowed them to see the world beyond Dreamland as easily as one can see the 'real' Dreamland.
Jeju was one of the Blacks' most knowledgeable children of his generation, and took to his learnings like a fish takes to water. As he grew up, his knowledge base grew, and he became the envy of his peers. Eventually, wanderlust got the better of him, and Jeju left his home at the age of 20.
Jeju spent the next decade wandering the lands of each kingdom, learning from Witches, Angels, Demons, and even some Others. He learned how to control plants through the many druids of the Yuputka Forest. He learned how to commune with spirits through the many mediums of Orenda. He learned how to defend himself from mundane force through the infamous enchanters of the Montains of Litost. His travels are too many to count, and he has almost met with death countless times.
As he neared his thirtieth birthday, Jeju felt that his wanderings would bring no more enlightenment. And so, he returned home to share his stories and take a role in the clan's hierarchy. His learnings had amazed the then-Alpha so much that he was granted a spot as his right-hand confidant! When the then-Alpha passed his role on to the current Alpha, Jeju found himself lucky enough to maintain his spot. Now a high-ranking member of the werecreatures' society, Jeju manages most of the kingdom's religious and spiritual needs.
Abilities
Power:
Jeju is capable of speaking to plants and spirits. If given time and concentration, he can convince them to support him. Whether this is through attacking enemies or giving advice depends on what Jeju asks them to do.
Through extensive use of magic and a battery of defensive rituals, Jeju is almost entirely immune to all brute force, regardless of its source. Jeju is still susceptible to magic weapons. This grants him almost-impossible skills in wrestling and fisticuffs, and is the main reason why he still holds such a high rank in the clans.
Though it is of much less practical use than his other powers, Jeju is knowledgeable in all forms of rituals and ceremonies. Seances, healing rituals, and rainmaking spells are his particular forte.
Fighting skills:
Jeju is a master pankrationer. His potent grapples and pokes make Jeju a force to be reckoned with in melee range.
Weapons:
Though Jeju prefers to use his bare fists and plant friends, he is entirely capable of using his Shaman Hammer as a deadly weapon. It serves as both a heavy wooden mallet and a rudimentary microphone for his plant-speaking and spirit-speaking abilities. Without it, Jeju has to shout to be heard by plants and spirits.
Other
Jeju is a very good cook and an amateur brewer.
