Chris is the host of the Orochi, its chosen avatar for when it finally decides to manifest physically in the world. The young boy, however, is totally unaware of his true nature.
Chris was born in Sweden, and grew up on the streets. It is unknown what happened to his parents, and Chris can not even remember them. He grew up independant, learning to rely totally on himself for everything from food to shelter to basic cleanliness. He grew to despise people who treated him as incompetnent because of his cute childish looks.
Chris acts like a carefree young boy. He loves the outdoors, hiking and communing with nature. He prefers to smile and laugh at life, but can become very dour and almost wild when provoked. He has a terrible temper, and hates most of all being treated like a child.
While Chris has the potential to contain the power of the Orochi in his body, and if he knew how could unleash the god's signature purple flames, he has not been trained in these attacks. In fact, Chris has no combat training at all, aside from what you would expect a young boy growing up on the cold streets of Sweden to have. Perhaps he is a little faster and tougher than normal children, but not so much it is obviously inhuman... yet.
