Abilities:
RomHack has the ability to change into a second form, his "feral form". In this form he walks on his four paws and loses some of his anthropomorphic characteristics, like his hands and his upright position. Thus, in his feral form he is not able to use his hands anymore, but on the other hand he can run faster, jump higher and he is more agile. Additionally, in this form, less energy is consumed and he has more stamina. This form is only of temporary nature, which means he cannot stay in this form for a very long period of time. Depending on the amount of magical energy he used, he can be in his feral form for around one to four hours. After this special energy was used up, he will turn back to his standard anthropomorphic form and it takes him several hours for recharging
He has the remarkable ability to create illusions for himself and other beings, provided they agree to it. These illusions range from simple objects to entire modified areas. The size and intensity of these playful and entertaining deceptions depend on the amount of magical energy used. Larger illusions, of course, require more magical energy. These special illusions can last up to three hours, depending on his current energy level. RomHack loves using this ability to simulate games and, occasionally, movies in the real world. Not only that, he and his best friend Kritzel often combine their powers by merging their illusions. He typically handles the settings, such as landscapes, rooms, and environments, while Kritzel focuses on the creatures that inhabit and interact within them. Together, they create captivating and immersive worlds and many other beings are also quite fascinated by it and love taking part in them
He produces and emits light form the colourful parts of his body constantly. That way he can lighten up the night in many different colours. The way he glows is particularly strong and bright. Unlike other creatures, the glowing requires almost no energy and he has the ability to vary the intensity of his glowing from a dimmed one to a dazzling bright one. Even the highest degree consumes only a small amount of energy. This glowing cannot be turned off though
He is a very talented and passionate gamer and nearly unbeatable when it comes to his favourite video games. He has incredibly fast reflexes and is extremely skilled. He is considered one of the best gamers in the entire land
Since he often engages in playful adventures within his illusions, he is quite athletic and very agile
He has the ability of speech and he speaks and understands many different human languages of our world. Of course he is able to interact with his fellow species and other animals and creatures. He can even translate to a certain extent
He has a pretty good night vision and can see quite well in the dark. He cannot see through the dark in the Land of Eternal Darkness though. He can also see almost all existing colours
Weaknesses:
His glowing cannot simply be "stopped". He can dim it to a certain extent, but not turn it off. This makes it difficult for him to hide for example
RomHack is a true child at heart. He is very playful and loves playing all kinds of games, especially video games. He also enjoys other activities like going on "virtual" adventures outside, especially together with his best friend Kritzel by combining their magical illusion abilities. He is a creature full of fantasy and imagination. A lack of these activities would weigh heavily on him and could even make him feel down
Although he is generally a laid-back being, it can happen that he rages when he loses a game. It becomes quite difficult to calm him down and he needs some time to cool off and relax
RomHack has a tendency to delve deeply into one of his fantasy worlds and lose sight of reality sometimes
Not only is Kritzel his best friend, but also his secret crush. They seem to be made for each other and Kritzel even shares these feelings. However, both are too afraid to confess their feelings for each other, worried that it might change their close friendship and they fear what might happen if they start a relationship. Neither of them has ever been in a relationship before, which makes the situation even more difficult for both of them

Further Information:
He was born in the Land of Eternal Night a gorgeous land which is full of colourful and glowing plants and creatures. As the name implies, the land is in a state of eternal night. It is a very soothing and peaceful land. He and his family moved to the Land of Eternal Dusk just a few months ago. RomHack initially found it difficult to settle in and make new friends. He felt that the teenage peers might label him as too childish and strange, even though most of them didn’t actually think that way. He distanced himself from them and felt sad about being so alone. However, during one of his "virtual" adventures in the great outdoors, he met Kritzel and everything changed. He finally found a best friend who was just as playful and young at heart as he was. He even is in the same age group and has similar magical abilities. Since then, the two have spent a lot of time together, greatly value their friendship and even developed feelings for each other, but which are kept secret
In every land you can find the following rule: Every strongly marked anthropomorphic creature is actually a human being from either a different dimension and/or time, that's why these creatures are more human-like than other beings
He is anthropomorphic and thus very human-like, but can still do typical "fox-like" and things like digging, making cute and funny sounds and much more
He and every here presented Land of Eternal Dusk resident are good friends. As already mentioned, he is not only very close to his best friend Kritzel, but is even secretly in love with him and vice versa, but they are too afraid to confess their feelings, fearing it might jeopardise their close friendship, as both are still quite inexperienced and insecure. Furthermore, he also feels close to Bubbles and Lullaby
RomHack is cis-male and he is bisexual
He is still a teenager and therefore quite young. In terms of age, he can be placed somewhere in the middle compared to the other teenagers introduced here
He has an entirely vegetarian diet, even though he is a kitsune fox. His favourite foods are vegetables, fruits, nuts and sweet treats
