Were-Meme: flashback to the days of the werecard.
Today we don't have werecards; they're passe. Now we have fifty pages of ticky-boxes because if you don't have gossamer wings you have to add that box to the list so you can ticky it. My pertinent facts:
[X] human
[X] jaguar
[X] alive
[ ] dead
[ ] male
[ ] female
[X] both
[X] neither
[ ] earth
[ ] fire
[ ] water
[ ] air
[X] cesium
That covers the essentials, I think, but if it doesn't, I freewrote this:

Human Name: Jennifer
Were Name: Swiftpaw (affectionately 'SpaceJaggy')
Email Address: xxxxxxxxx@xxxxxxx.xxx
Phenotype: Jaguar
Shifting Ability: Jaguar
Birthdate: July 15, 1985
Birthplace: Portland, Oregon
Home Territory: Yuma, Arizona
Dream Territory: The Sonoran Desert, including the bits with the new, growing cities and the bits with the old, abandoned cities, and the bits with the nothing-at-all.
Physical Desсriрtion, Human: Could stand to lose about fifteen pounds, short brown hair, blue-gray eyes, sneakers, cargo pants, and plain colored t-shirts. When it's cold, maybe a big soft green USMC sweatshirt.
Physical Desсriрtion, Were: Jaggy. Big paws, grippy claws, big ears, big eyes, pretty rosettes, soft tail (shorter than a mountain lion's), and burly shoulders over powerful legs. Bulky but, damn, all the power comes from the chest, the heart. Damn, they say, what a hell of a cat.
Human Career: United States Marine, Aviation Electrician. I want to be a spaceship builder and an astronaut.
Hobbies/Interests: Aviation, writing, reading, history, mechanics, electrician, theories, website design, running, hiking, dreaming about space, posting in LJ.
Favorite Movies: Silence of the Lambs, Dark City, Solaris, Babylon 5
Favorite Were-movie: *snrk* Silence of the Lambs. Traditional: oh, Blood of the Werewolf. Definitely. Wilderness. Brotherhood of the Wolf.
Favorite Were Literature: Charles de Lint's Forests of the Heart and Someplace to be Flying.
Favorite Art: Those itty-bitty acrylic landscapes that fit everything in vibrant color into a five by ten-inch rectangle.
Favorite Were-art: Photo portraits of people with stories in their eyes.
Favorite Quote: "I know that I shall meet my fate, somewhere among the clouds above. Those I fight I do not hate, those I guard I do not love."
Favorite Were Saying/Quote: "What people say about shape-changers or those who go into berserk fits is this: that as long as they're in the frenzy they're so strong that nothing is too much for them, but as soon as they're out of it they become much weaker than normal." - Egil's Saga
Favorite Personal Quote: "Entrance not for everybody."
Favorite Song/Band(s): Carbon Leaf and Metallica

Hunting Tips: Use a rifle; the rest of it's too much work.
Preferred Method of Attack: Drop from above.
Favorite Non-Were Mythological Beast: Dinosaur.
Feelings Toward Vampires: Fucking blood-suckers.
Feelings Toward Normal Humans: What can you tell me?
Personal Therianthropy: I'm a kitty. I thought I was a wolf for a while but I'm not, I'm a jaggy. I went to Iraq and went all jaggy for a long time, and got a little weird, but I'm better now. I fly. Jaggy means motion so I keep doing impossible things because I forget that they're impossible. I try hard to keep it toned down but that's impossible, too, but everybody seems to forgive me. I get teased a lot but that's because teasing is how they say they like me, so I tease them back and we get along. I have to do a lot for jaggy that's not-in-the-city and not-in-the-groupthink, but it works out. I do okay. I'm balanced. I didn't used to be, but I am for now.
