Username: Garuru
Name: Sosnovom Lesu
Race: Avatar of Evolution
Gender: Male
Color: the color of Nature
Description: Lesu is a brown bear. He is entirely indistinguishable from an ordinary brown bear, even to other bears. However, he is unique, largely due to his potential of evolution. He is the avatar of evolution, and he has been around for much longer than you'd expect. Also, he hates humans. A lot.
Items/Abilities: He has an innate knowledge of genetics, and can fully analyze any organism's genetic makeup via a single touch. He has a highly advanced brain for all this, but he has never used it much, in order to fit in the animal kingdom. Thus, in terms of functionality, he is little more than a brown bear. He can, however, willfully manipulate his own evolution. If he had to do so, he could evolve, say, advanced vocal cords for communication with humans. But of course, he has never needed to. This is due to his other ability. Namely, he can revert any nonorganic construct into natural minerals, a power which he would never use if it were not for the humans. Whenever they became too advanced for their own good, doing things such as shooting animals with those god-awful guns, he would have to forcefully de-evolve those guns, then kill them. He has demonstrated advanced control over this ability, being able to dismantle such constructs down to the molecular level, and even simply eliminating any manmade elements. Additionally, it appears that he can only be harmed by natural means, such as claws or teeth.
Biography: With his potential for evolution and his immensely long life span, it's possible he has been around since the first living organisms began to exist, living as a specimen of those organisms and evolving alongside them. At the moment though, he appears to be stubbornly stuck in the Boreal climatic phase (around 9000 BC - 6000 BC, according to you humans), which also happens to be the time that brown bears settled in their little evolutionary niche. Around this time, humans started painting on caves, making stone knives, and what have you. They discovered technology, and it is through this that they skyrocketed in terms of evolution potential, though it was of course all unnatural. From this point, humans became weaker physically, even losing fur to the point where they got burned by the very sun. Logically, they should have been weeded out due to natural selection and predators becoming stronger. However, they began cutting down trees and razing the land, planting farms and controlling Nature. This is the point where other animals stopped evolving, because the more dangerous they got, the quicker they would be killed by humans. Later, much later, more species would become extinct, leaving humans to be the only species still alive. Then, they would learn how to upload their brains into cyborg bodies, becoming immortal and putting an end to evolution permanently. This, Lesu prophesized would happen. It was antithetical to his purpose on Earth, so he set out to stop this future from ever happening. Apparently, the human genome was the key towards unlocking advanced evolution, so his main goal was to put a stop to (read: kill) humans whenever they made a huge technical leap, such as discovering how to harness fire, or discovering agriculture. He has, however, allowed natural evolution of their bodies. It has been some 5,000 years since the cessation of the Boreal phase, and humans remain stuck in their tribal hunter-gatherer phase, thanks to him.
