One body, two souls
Alright I want to give a bit of context to it: After becoming a chimera, Casther’s been 50% humans and 50% wolf. His body didn’t gain that many visible attributes from the wolf, most things are internal or not obvious, like his heightened senses. However during the transmutation, his and the wolf’s soul both came into the same body.
Most of the time Casther’s souls is dominant/in charge, just because him and the wolf are very compatible and because the wolf is very peaceful and enjoys “watching”. However there are circumstances where Casther loses control or where the wolf takes over by force. During these moments he’s not hostile per se (except for when someone threatens their “pack”). But he *can* be dangerous.
For Casther the state of losing control to the wolf is highly traumatizing. Ever since becoming a chimera he has been absolutely terrified of losing his humanity and becoming a monster/animal. And losing control of his body fully triggers that fear in him.
The wolf however doesn’t strive for control and sees everyone Casther holds dear just as much as family. Because the wolf sees and feels everything Casther feels and he too is very protective and loyal. Casther doesn’t know that though and fights against the wolf, which makes both of them very unstable.
It didn’t happen often and most of the time, Casther can’t even remember what happened later. To him, it’s like he just blacked out. However the feeling and paranoia stays. There is a point where they can arrange themselves better, but we’re talking about maybe 15 years after the transmutation.
