Erik Cooper (Nerd, Orc)

For the whole of his life, Erik had been a nerd; smaller, shy and unathletic he had always struggled with fitting in with his few saving graces being his supportive parents and high IQ. There were a few friends that he had, but school had always been an awkward place for him since he was oft times seen as easy prey by school bullies and such.

The change for him therefore, had come as quite a shock; he'd been a weedy 115 lbs and 5'3 when he went to bed one night and when he woke up in the morning he suddenly was 6'3 and 315 lbs of mostly green muscle. His facial structure had change with his jaw becoming more pronounced and square while his teeth had changed to be more like those of a carnivore with two prominent tusks jutting out past his upper lip. About the only thing that hadn't changed as much were his eyes; they still had that sort of shy innocent blue that he'd had the morning before.

Beyond merely the obvious changes though, Eriks senses had sharpened, his sense of smell, taste and vision had sharpened which was something of a mixed blessing given how for the first week or so he was incredibly sensitive to brighter lights, flavors of processed food and the smells of the outside world, all of which was quite stressful and that led to the other change; Erik's body was seething with hormones that made every sensation and every though seem so much more **** then it normally would have been.

Fortunately for the 18 year old, his parents were equal parts patient, calm and supportive; Instead of responding with blind panic like some would at the sight of the green hulk in their son's bedroom, they'd carefully and calmly assessed the situation, did their research and just went about adjusting to their boy's new self. New clothes were bought since nothing they had would fit, a call went into the school to let them know he wasn't feeling well and the three of them all read as much as they could, learned about the Change that had happened to some folks and planned for how he would be going back to school.

Today was going to be that day; the teachers had been advised of the situation and Erik had brought a handful of notes and such signed by his parents certifying his identity if they questioned it.

The issue of course was how a young man with social anxiety in the body of a hulk with the testosterone of an NFL division was going to make out.
