(http://tychebooks.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/stone_man_photo_concept_by_jeffpeli-d3bso16.jpg)  In half morph form, he remains is human height and size, however with more weight.  Think flexible, thin shale skin.  Weight becomes approximately 400lbs.<br/><br/>In full form (http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-SODfd5x2zzY/UGSdScuZ8sI/AAAAAAAAAZ8/Bj00Nl40ecY/s1600/stoneGolem.jpg), just imagine longer arms.  The curious part of full form is the size change.  He becomes smaller to the tune of only 4 feet in height.  However, this smaller form, matched with the ape like proportions, give him a lot more range of motion and quicker movements than a large Stone Golem.  Things like planting his fists in front of him and swinging his body forward to attack and even simply move quickly from one place to another. Pretty much human level range of motion and speed.<br/><br/>Personality:  Loyal, friendly with an edge, not a loner but often quiet and to himself and his thoughts.  Makes attempts at comedy, but often misses completely as he has a difficult time picking up on subtle cues around him.<br/><br/>History: Born to a poor share cropper in the south eastern United States, cars and engines became his passion at a young age.  Manifesting shortly after puberty, his family hid him away and gave him little social skills.  They actually tried killing him numerous times to no avail.  They kept him locked in a root cellar and stopped feeding him shortly after realizing they couldn't kill him.  He got good at getting himself free by learning how to shift forms and taking what he needed to survive.<br/>In his mid teens he left home and never looked back.  Heading to the west, he found himself good company in the form of bootleggers.  Learning to control his emotions, he become handy with a wrench and learned quick behind the wheel.   Once he stopped aging around the age of 25, he found he was forced to move around alot.  He joined the army for WWII, a solid patriot.  He was a mechanic, of course.<br/>Into the 50's he continued west, moving about working in various shops and began studying more on geology. He spent a few years a on the west coast in the 60's and traveled throughout the country at the end of the decade into the next with hippies.  The late 70's took him to the Midwest, where he took up masonry.  He held a steady life bouncing around the states in the middle of the country up until the 90's when he had an incident in Wisconsin and headed back east.<br/><br/>Other: He can be controlled in real time, in Were form, by the one who has a ring he made of his own stone heart.  He made it for a woman he loved in the 60's and discovered the power by accident.  She died in a car crash about a year later.  She never knew and no other woman has ever had the ring since.
