Jim Shrapshire

James Damael Shrapshire or Jim Black as he’s known in the Mercenary Guild is the Chief of Security for The Pack, the former Alpha Male of Clan Cat, a part-time Merc, close friend of both Kate and Curran, and eventual second reigning Beast Lord, following Curran's retirement.

Human Form
Standing 6′ 2” with a lean, sinewy and very defined muscular frame, his default expression (a ruff-scowl) gives him thuggish appearance.

He has short dark brown hair, dark brown eyes and dark skin.

Jim preferred style of dress is dark cloths under a dark cloak.

Beast Form
American jaguar

Warrior Form
Was very awkward and by comparison to Curran or Derek mismatch. While raiding the rakshasa base is the jungle in Unicorn Lane it becomes sleek and elegant while his coat gains a vivid golden tint.

Personality
Jim is very observant and is suspicious to the point of being paranoid.

Like most shape-shifters Jim is very mistrusting toward outsiders.

After Curran abdicates the "throne," Jim becomes Beast Lord, making Dali his Consort/Beast Lady/Official Mate.
