Personality:
Raptorson is a scientific dreamer who firmly believes in the power of technology and will fight for the common people for their rights. He is an overall very positive sort, and can be socially awkward. as a result of being taught to firmly grasp onto his pride as a talking Dinosaur, rather than being downtrodden for his odd looks, he feels the need to add in the phrase "I am a raptor" in many social conversations.
Raptorson is usually a very calm and even sort of investigator, not reacting to anything with more than a little bit of emotion in his voice at the best of times. His method of speech isn't so drab as to be called emotionless, but not warm enough to be called serene, either - he just doesn't seem particularly concerned with things the majority of the time.
This does not apply to when he is properly upset, startled, surprised, or otherwise emotionally compromised - at which point his instincts will come into play, he will usually forget how to speak except in his more "Native" tongue, and his behavior much closer resembles the pack predator that is his race. He can shift from the behavior of a mild-mannered scientist to a Utahraptor at a drop of a hat in calmer situations, such as his idea of "lunch" usually involving mouse hunting, and he has difficulties understanding the abnormalities of some of these behaviors. While he's worked hard on controlling his instincts in many other situations, occasionally his Teeth win out against his brains.
He's very protective of the scientific degrees he has earned, however, and will not be afraid to point out his expertise.
History:
The circumstances that caused Raptorson, a long-dead strain of Dinosaur, to be born in this day and age when the genus has changed so much baffles even the best science has to offer on the subject, however it is generally agreed that the deserts in the west may have a hidden utahraptor population within the world. What a Utah is and why the species was named for it has been lost to current science but what is generally agreed on is that, while the animal was very intelligent, it had no business existing at Horace Raptorson's level of Intellect. Nonetheless, he was taken in at some point by the Wolf-fang school, first as a pet, then as an orphan when they realized his intelligence.
He had a brief stay at the orphanages there, though he did not learn combat from them. He left not a day too early, for he was frequently bullied as a child. as it turns out, a small human is far more interested in bullying those who are different than they are self-preservation when they come together in large packs. Raptorson, having a fairly low EQ at the time, was unaware that he was being made fun of or bullied when people pointed out simple facts about him, but the problem came to a head one night while Raptorson was sleeping. though he was seven at the time, his body was already that of a full-grown utahraptor, which made the ensuing dare a horrific tragedy when at a younger age it might have ended with mere injury.
"Poking the raptor" was a common dare amongst the kids, with Raptorson being the pokable raptor. For the first time that night, they tried it while the young animal was asleep, going farther and farther. What happened to get it to that point is a matter of debate, but it is clear that at one point, raptorson's actual lips (as much as Dinosaurs had lips) were to be tickled for the bet going forward. This, finally, awoke the sleeping Raptorson, who's thick scales prevented him from even feeling the earlier pokes. Raptorson had been exceptionally well-behaved to this point, which perhaps makes the lack of caution and complete surprise from the children make sense as the dinosaur promptly woke up smelling delicious meat directly inside his mouth, and gobbled up the unfortunate youngster in seconds, consuming him completely (Or at least, the lack of a body seems to imply).
The children who saw this horrific sight took a few days to process it enough to tell a nurse, which was fortunate for Raptorson, lest his life hit an early end. Filled with guilt, he was surprised to see what he saw the next day - A dinosaur. A raptor. Doctor Dinosaur, PhD.
Doctor Dinosaur, hearing of an intelligent Archosaur in this orphanage, had come here with the intent of adopting him at a rushed rate. As the orphanage had been eager to get rid of Raptorson and his incredible food cost, this process was rushed, and within a day, Raptorson's new father had taken him under his wing, the younger dinosaur happy to have relatable, intelligent family.
From there, things moved fast. He was taught the sciences, both formal and his father's fabled crystal research. He taught himself some medical science against his patron's orders, who thought such was a waste of time. Raptorson, however, felt a duty to help those injured and in need, as a result of his earlier sin. He took to most of Doctor Dinosaur's sciences well, and was in the middle of his bachelor's degree. the two argued, but never for long, and a legitimate bond was soon formed...
Unfortunately, 2 incidents soon followed. 1 was the insanity caused by over-exposure to crystals Doctor Dinosaur soon fell victim to, making him erratic, difficult to follow, faulty in memory, and far more prone to instinctual behaviors. This bothered Raptorson immensely, as he could neither fix it, nor convince Doctor Dinosaur to get to legitimate medical care, leaving him frustrated and frightened at his powerlessness.
The second was an experiment that sent his mentor through a portal, powered by those very same crystals. An experiment Raptorson did not want to help with, but did not refuse when asked, and a portal that closed before he could jump in after his master.
Since then, Raptorson has spent his time researching the enigmatic "Crystals" his patron had so long ago discovered - but at a distance, carefully, safely. He finished his PHD's. He further accomplished his secondary goal of obtaining a regular doctorate, allowing him to become a doctor in every sense of the word. He started looking into mental health and neuroscience, in order to learn what might have befallen his master.
And most importantly, he never stopped working for what he had always wanted to do, always worked towards, even during his search for his master across the multiverse:
He would use his smarts to help people. To make their lives better. To use science to protect the people and assist those who could not defend themselves. And he had every confidence he could do it, too
