Weight: 165lbs (245lbs mutated)
Appearance:
Canines are barely larger than a normal human's and enlarge slightly more when fully mutated.
Civilian Attire: Seeing as he is a member of royalty in a foreign country he tends not to dress down too much. So he often wears a suit or at least a dress shirt and tie with slacks. Occasionally he wears a polo with a baseball cap, but that is the most casual you will ever see him.
Personality:
Upbeat with a passion for adventure, T'Chui or Bem to those that know him on a more personal level, say he is always up to something. Seeing as Bem prefers to wear either a suit or jacket, he tends to remain rather reserved amongst others observing as he calls it. This comes in handy as well, seeing as he has spent time within the jungles and the royal gym, training like his father did. With this training he has also developed a thirst for knowledge, but he rarely shows it once you get to really know him he seems all fun and games.
On the flip side however he seems to hold quite a stand for Wakanda in that he believes they are the strongest, smartest nation in the world. This includes himself and his family. His sister tends to keep him in check and mellows him out.

The Hero
Codename: The Black Panther
Hero Attire:
He mutates but wears a special suit underneath his clothes that is designed with a vibranuim weave to prevent wear and protect the prince.
Powers:
Feral: The manifestation of his mutant abilities grants him the ability to mutate into the Panther form. Many believe that Bem is the Panther God in bipedial form. Which his mother and Aunt Shuri use to their advantage by cautioning Bem to refrain from reverting back to human form until he is able to go somewhere private.
Heightened senses also come with this feral transformation:
Shadow translucence- Due to his dark fur which grows in his mutated state he is able to blend almost perfectly into the shadows other than his eyes still being visible.
Increased agility or dexterity- greater than an gold medal Olympic gymnast. Bem's level of dexterity is on par with that of an actual leopard. He can jump at least 10 ft in the air, 15ft in feral mode.
Skills:
Intellect: Having had the best education money, vibranium, Wakandan royalty, military, and his mutant upbringing could provide Bem is able to not only represent his nation with ease, but protect it as well, there and abroad. He also holds a Bachelor of Arts & Science with Honors.
Staff/spear training: Trained by his aunt, uncle, and the Wakandan Guard or Coal Tigers, Bem is proficient in this method of self defense.
Special Equipment:
His necklace is a collapsible vibranium staff that extends to 4ft. and houses a retractable spear head.
Weaknesses: Being the son of the Black Panther and Storm has constantly placed Bem under scrutiny by paparazzi especially when Stateside. This makes it more difficult for him to get out of the public eye to revert back to human form or hold his feral state back.
If he remains in feral mode for more than 4 hours then he runs the risk of its changes becoming more permanent. He also can lose control of his emotions at times becoming angry or territorial, and as with all ferals, Bem is afraid of fire.
Most Heroic Achievements:
None in America as of yet, however, in Wakanda he has taken on the Coal Tigers in training and Man-Ape in defense of the city.
History:
The youngest of the two heirs of the Wakandan throne is Bem Chui T'challa. The Wakandan king T'challa, after many years of dating, skirt chasing, and admonishment from his stepmother finally found... or rather, relocated his queen: Ororo Munroe better known as Storm. The pair have stuck very close over time, even though they may still lend aid to former teammates and allies alone, they have also joined or led teams together such as the Fantastic Four in the midst of the Civil War. The two also found time to themselves as sparse as it may have been, to eventually give birth to two children. The younger of the two having golden colored eyes, "Like the Panther himself," as the king procclaimed at the young boy's birth. However, for a portion of Bem's life he has had little interaction with his father during his recovery, after Dr. Doom the Latverian leader destroyed Bem's father's ship.
Growing up Bem was trained by various leaders of Wakandan and American descent, not surprisingly he took well to them all, excelling in primarily the science and technology fields by the time he reached the American equivalent of high school. He then started showing exceptionally high progress in other... more athletic areas as well, such as spear and staff training via his Aunt Shuri who had at this point taken on the mantle of Black Panther while his father was recovering under his mother and grandmother's ever watchful eye. His aunt, being one of his greatest supporters in his desire to attain the "Panther" title, made sure every one of his exercises were as precise and intense as the ones his father did with her for so many years. In a final test of his abilities she had him face off against the Coal Tiger squad. It was during this training exercise that his mutant abilities first manifested originally just being a set of advanced sensory mutations along with his claws. Bem was hardly in control once this change took over him. It was as if all his senses were massively amplified. After it was brought to Storm's attention, she sought counsel of Wolverine, but it was primarily her that worked with Bem to control this mutation.
His mother, once blessed by the Panther God, has taken Bem before it for counsel. Once his mutation fully manifested itself he is able to physically mutate as well into a full grown bipedal Black Panther.
Upon turning 17 he came to the U.S. where he majored in Political Science and minored in Computer Science. Now in his early twenties he has remained in America, after graduating from college with a Bachelor of Arts & Science with Honors, and is an understudy for the current liason and Wakandan representative at the request of his mother. For a few years now he has taken to the new mantle of Black Panther often defending the nation of Wakanda from several of his father's old foes and his relatives, namely Man-Ape. His mother has placed a word of good faith in for him with the JLA should he require assistance while Stateside.
RP Sample:
*Sniiiiiff* Bem traced the scent of the burglar around the corner. He had gotten maybe a block away, taken the alley around to 9th, Bem loved letting the crooks get a little ways ahead of him to make the chase more fun... "Let the hunt begin..." he said to himself as he leapt from his perch on an alley side fire escape to the a nearby rooftop.
He leaped from one roof to the next, as claws began to extend from his fingertips, he felt the muscles in his face tremble as the bridge of his nose flattened, as well as its tip. Bem noticed his teeth begin to enlarge and felt his canines become slightly more pronounced. Finally the tip of his spine extended slightly as his tail sprouted to its full foot and a half length.
Bem paused on the corner of the building's roof. He had passed his "prey" by half a block , turning his head slightly down and to his right, he caught the criminal's scent again. Bem let out a loud feral roar and the chase continued...
