Right...Well...I'm still working on this lil beasty, but I might as well show what I've got goin here so far sooooo here ya go character wise: 

Name: Rusty McKennath
Age: 296 (Give or take a decade
as best as he can figure)
Sex: Male
Species: Welsh Sheepdog/Irish
Black Wolf mix
Height: 5’0” (He was a
runt!  Not his fault!)
Weight: 105lbs

Appearance:

- Hair and fur: As per his
namesake, his fur is a mix of rusty orange and red/brown with random splotches
of black, with a shock of scruffy red hair that always fails to keep in order
despite his best efforts.

- Markings: Bioluminescent Celtic
and Catholic Tattoos from the tip of his ear on down the left half of his body,
displaying parts of his life he felt deserved a place (This includes his time
on a privateering vessel in the Caribbean, a caring Gypsy, and a thorn wreathed
Catholic cross), tends to glow emerald green and the designs never seem to stay
in the same place.

- Eye color: Bright Crimson

- Other features: Multiple neural
transmitters and receivers discreetly hidden by a metal plate located on the
upper back of his neck, keeping his hair long enough to cover the plate from
the general random glance.  Also has
other upgrades, including a strengthened bone lattice and an experimental
medical injury analysis and recovery system (Think Microscopic medical bots
what may or may not be functioning correctly hence experimental!!!).

Behavior and Personality: Reserved,
a little jittery and nervous around new faces. 
Rusty is warm and accommodating towards those he holds close as friends
and will always go out of his way to lend a helping hand if it's needed.

Skills:  Has always had a great affiliation towards
technology and a near endless depth to his imagination.  Rusty has dedicated himself to understanding
everything he possibly can about any technology he runs across, if given a
screwdriver and a hammer, he can take it apart and put it back together before
anyone could realize what's happened. 
Over the years he's been...Modifying himself, not always with the best
results.  Has found a way to communicate,
and with great effort even control sentient and non-sentient machinery using
some of his modifications.

Weaknesses: As with being a tech head (Figuratively and
literally), he's highly susceptible to virtual attacks and "break
ins".  As such he must constantly
keep himself locked off from the virtual world, or at least monitor every
connection he makes, which forces him to bear great physical and mental
exhaustion within a fairly rapid and short amount of time.

Likes: Asian frying cuisine,
Southern cooked home foods, barbeques, meats prepared in many ways.  Rusty owns a huge physical and digital collection
of music, ranging from classical compositions to Death Metal (yes, he's a metal
head, again literally and figuratively. ;) ). 
He is also an avid RTS, RPG, and miniatures gamer with a collection to
match his ambitions.  For entertainment
he enjoys musicals, Operas, Science Fiction, Drama and Comedy.  He tends to steer away from television most
of the time, at least until something catches his eye and ears.  Rusty will always enjoy a rousing
social-economic or political debate, so long as it stays civil.

Dislikes: Politicians, Reality
TV of any kind, Narrow-minded behavior, insects and bugs of any kind,
Politicians, (Most) Oscar winning movies, torture-porn movies, viral hackers,
Olympic games committee and highly organized world events which deny politics
yet are all about politics, Politicians, religious zealots, neo-classical
literature, death obsessed poets/authors, drama queens, forced Drama
Television, and one more time for effect...Politicians.

History: (Still workin this section through, seriously, lotta hammer work.)

Clothing/Personal Style: Surplus
Military shirts and pants, boots, a collar (Only allowed to be tugged on by
certain people so don't even THINK about it unless he invites your touch!) or a
healthy dose of Death Metal/Heavy Metal black and gold with a hint of punk
rocker thrown in.

Goal: To wander the world and
enjoy life one day at a time.
Profession: He really shouldn't
tell you...really he shouldn't, black helicopters in the night, business suits,
the whole "No Such Agency" pandering...Okay okay he's a luckless
college grad with a few hints at military contracts!!  Sheesh, can't let a guy have his fun. ;)
