Out Of Her Hands {PRIVATE}

Localized Name: Boggart/ Crimson Devil/ The Beast

What To Expect/Personality: The beast is a merciless hunter, hunting down whomever it deems worthy to be it's annual prey. The beast is capable of transfiguration and mimicry of sounds, noises, and voices; this makes it incredibly dangerous as it has the capability to hunt it's prey even in broad daylight, disguising itself as a stranger to learn more about it's prey and it's weaknesses, it will seem to be a human stalker, attempting to earn the attention of the prey/put them on edge to extort their instincts and bring out their fear; once the prey has gotten used to looking out for their human stalker, the beast will ignore the prey for a period that ranges from barely a week to half a month; after this 'resting period' ends, the beast will invade the prey's home and disguise as an inanimate object or perhaps a family pet (in which the instance they might decide to take the place of the pet, they will have consumed the animal before replacing them) so that the beast may observe it's prey when they are most comfortable: at home. It will allow at least a month to pass before moving to it's next phase, which is deciding exactly when and where to strike first. It's first attempt at the prey's life will seem like an accident; perhaps it somehow makes the prey slip in the shower or fall down the stairs. The next will be a bit more high-profile; when the prey is alone and there is no-one around to hear the attempt, they will disguise as the same person it used as the prey's 'human stalker' and attempt to kill them with conventional human means such as using a weapon commonly used by humans; like a knife. If all else fails, it will begin to try even harder; it will attempt to truly put the prey on edge; after the trauma of surviving a break in and a very open attempt on their life, it will begin to move around objects in the house, beginning very subtle, such as a toothbrush never being in the spot they put it in last, or their keys going missing and appearing in a place they always check one random day; then it will become more high-profile, causing public embarrassment; say the prey still attends school: the beast will hide all of their required materials to the point where they physically cannot complete an assignment of any kind without asking someone for the materials needed to complete said assignment. Or perhaps they need to get up early every morning; it will subtly break their alarm or always turn it off when they fall asleep only for it to never go off the next morning. It will also perform other such tediously obnoxious acts though I just listed a couple. When the beast knows they're stressed or paranoid; it will begin the second to last stage: make noise at random places, perhaps the noises become more disturbing as time goes on. Maybe it breathes down the prey's neck or taps them on the shoulder and then runs when the prey is not looking to make them scared or even more paranoid. Once they know the prey cannot do anything else to stop the beast's subtle actions, it will begin the final stage: the killing of the prey in it's one true form [this is it's last resort to take the prey's life and consume it]. {I probably didn't write this too well: late)

The 'change' theme (i.e. something moved and the protagonist realizes)

The 'tension' theme (i.e. the protagonist hears a noise they've never heard before/gets chills down their spine because of the Boggart's actions)

The 'chase/no escape' theme (i.e. the Boggart it sick of subtlety and is prepared to strike at any time: the time being now)

I have literally no idea how to make this character rn, I just know he's a dude and that his first name is James.
