This will eventually be a directory of all my chars with up to date refs and stuff. At the moment, it's a bit sloppy, but I'm wwwooorking on it. :B Each character receives a grade on the quality of the ref, snippit of writing for them, and use in an RP/plot. Ref criteria include: how well it's drawn, usefulness (aka markings/accessories are clarified), accuracy (up to date). The writing grade is based on how neatly it's written (not just slopped down to get the idea out), usefulness (must give reader an idea what the char is like), and accuracy (yet again; up to date). I'm not sure about the RP/plot grade yet, but it'll probably just be A or F. They're either used in a plot/RP or they're not.

Working on (in order of priority):
- reorganize this page
- update uncolored, out of date, and REALLY BAD refs
- update/add to unsatisfactory writings
- cull more, if necessary
- draw all minor chars
- draw all frozen chars

Other things I need to do:
- go through old rps; sort what is/isn't canon
- make up to date guides to lands (priorities: Riria, Protae, Saramela)
- make up to date species refs
- organize chars on aywas (low priority :3;)
- FF thing -vague on purpose-

The shipper
Kitter Excali is a knix lynx (usually just called a knix), a species of lynx that originate from Terasp. Like Caragians, the Terasp people are pretty private and snooty. Since they broke away from Caragia, they’ve become extremely militant and won’t let anyone in or out of the country. A small group of Terrans (JEJEJEJE) tried to escape, but their boat was SPLODED and the survivors were taken back to Terasp for a trial. All survivors save for a little kit who floated ashore in Ciu, somehow. She was found by a female dragon dog that had recently had pups. Rather than have some noms, the mother dog brought the kit back to her nursery and raised her with the other pups. Eventually, some person found the mother dog and shot her because they thought she was going to harm the kit. They took the pups to the humane society and the kit to a hospital. Once the kit was deemed healthy, she was put into an adoption center.

The adoption rate in Ciu isn’t too hot, so she stayed there for quite a while. After some time, she ran away and lived on the streets where she found Buster, one of her dog “brothers.” She was quickly found and put back into the adoption center, but was able to keep in contact with Buster from then on. She was finally adopted when she was 8 and, after some begging, was allowed to keep Buster. She was crazy responsible for her age and took care of him by herself. That was about the only thing she was responsible for though.

In highschool, she was a cheerleader and dated Tibby, the smexy football player. Her BFF was her penpal, Mitty, who lived in Rixa City. Her BFF in person was Charlie, though Char was a bit of a doof and did teh drugz sometimes. D:< She was also with that JERK, Zyoko. I mean, wtf? That guy is such a DOUCHE.

She’ll ship ya a new one. Or something. She’s very gay, but not literally. She’s kind of lesbie homophobic actually, but not like what the term apparently means today. So like, she’s not OMG I HATE GAY CHICKS, she’s like “D: Gay chicks kinda scare me, but I’m not going to say anything; I’ll just kinda avoid them without being rude or anything.” Which is what I thought homophobic (phobia = scared of, homo = same sex… scared of same sex? Not OMG HATE THEM. Whatever. /rant). Anyway, she lives in a house with Mitty, Charlie (not anymore), Lillian, and Tibby. And later Buster, Fred, Rick, Adrean, and Eddie.

the anti-Kit

Conrad Kurtis is the eldest child in the Susan family. As such, he was always on call to babysit his younger siblings. His parents both worked jobs, so they relied on him a lot to look after the little ones, giving Kurry strong parental instincts from an early age. He was always reliable and responsible, putting the family before anything else. Though he went off track a bit during his mid-teens, he always (and still) holds these values closely. During those off-track years, he would go to raves often to try to deal with his feelings. Ever since dating and relationships became known to him, he knew he was gay. In other words, there was something wrong with him (*see Riria info). He couldn’t tell anyone, especially his family. And he couldn’t be like anyone else, happily going about and telling their friends/family all about how much fun they had with such-and-such on a date. He had to be secretive and feel filthy about how he was. And it’s not like there was some known gay underground where he could somehow meet others like him, no… There probably weren’t any others like him. He was a total freak; a screw up. He initially tried to cope with this loneliness by using drugs and drinking at the raves, but realized that it made him a shitty big brother. Not only would he be a secret freak, but he’d also be a bad role model, which was unacceptable. Instead, he would just entice himself with the invisible, yet belonging feeling of being at a rave.

Later he would form a strong bond with his BFFs, Tick and Stacy. After unintentionally spilling his secret to them, they still stuck by his side and loved him as much as ever. Through this acceptance (and, other stuff), Kurry was okay with himself. Even though he'd probably never have a mate, he at least had his friends and family. It was hard when Tick and Stacy left, as he lost the only two people that truly accepted him, but he still had to take care of his family, which became all the more imperative after his parents died. He's still taking care of everyone, but what he would really love, for once, would be for someone to take care of him.

Derek RONALD and Daniel Rico may as well have been twins when they were younger; they were both DELINQUENTS and crazians that wrecked the house. Dare was a “miniature warrior” (aka running with knives, BAD DARE) and Dan was a pyro. Many things were shredded and burned. Dare was the more dominant of the two, being older, and Dan was a bit like his sidekick as they wreaked havoc. Being slightly meeker, Dan enjoyed quieter activities when not around Dare. He liked fire because it was pretty; he liked a lot of pretty things, which showed in his interest of making BEAUTIFUL WORKS OF ART for their parents. Dare was all OMG I’M SO GONNA BE A BADASS WARRIOR AND KEEL DEM BAD THINGS >8DDDDDDDDD. He probably got grounded a lot for stabbing Dan’s tail so much (among other things; they both got grounded a lot), but they still supported him in wanting to be a warrior, up until he was selected to go be one.

While Dare was away, Dan was a bit unsure at first, but slowly started to become more loud, taking Uzi as his “sidekick.” Dan also became more lively and popular in school, boosting his confidence and leading to his current 8D personality. He never really took art classes or anything because he thought art was girly and didn’t want anyone to know about his sketchbook. When Dare finally came back, Dan was like 8DDDDDDDDD, but then D: wtf ‘cause Dare was like -___________-. Dan tried to make Dare not so EMOOO, but GOSH HE WAS SO EMO IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE, so they just stopped hanging out for the most part.

Corie “Uzi” is the oldest girl of the Susan churl. Being born after three boys, she didn’t really have any girls to rub off of, so she was much more boyish and rough early on. She got more girly in middle school though, when dating became a thing. Also, she had a baby sister that she needed to raise properly, not like how she was. Holly Bell was an average little girl that liked pretty things, but like, flowers and stuff, not Dan-kinda-pretty things. Dan’s manly, dangit. Anyway, Uzi aided in this process of proper ladiness, though it didn’t last very long seeing that the fyre thing happened. Before then, Holly was always the one that persistently bothered Dare in his emo hole aka room. She didn’t really notice though; she’d just hug him a lot and generally be adorable.

Melanie Emmert came from the southern part of Kir-Kara that had a less traditional culture. On top of that, it was a city, vaguely based off of Ciu and Kaburn architecture which was veeery untraditional. It wasn’t uncommon for families to be rather small here, and so Mel was an only child. Though Mel tried to be sociable in school, she never really made any close friends due to not being able to hang out outside school once she hit working age (13-ish? Not completely decided on that though). She was born into a very low income family that could barely make it paycheck to paycheck, so they needed her help as soon as possible. Due to all three family members working, they didn’t spend quite as much time together. Mel saw the least of her parents though (by which I mean the parents saw more of each other than her), making her bond with them not very strong. Mel never really bonded with anyone before the fyre outbreak, only finally ever having a BFF when she met Vivian.

She met the mehzor gang while exploring and decided she may as well go with them. She was used to being alone, but there are times when you shouldn't really be. Such as when the land is ravaged by murderous beasts like bloodless. She hung out with Viv the most because they were the only ones of similar age and they quickly became friends. Mel likes telling Viv about courting, dating, and... veeery nontraditional practices done prior to marriage to get a reaction out of her. Though Mel never had time for such things herself, she does know about it from what she's heard- and it's lolrific to see how horrified Viv gets at the idea of it. Haha, Viv's going to have a heck of a time getting southern men.

Viv, on the other hand, came from waaay up north where it was the exact opposite- very traditional. She came from a family a bit larger than the Susans and was the third eldest girl. She got to attend many family weddings and greatly anticipated her own. Her parents found a nice guy for her (arranged marriages up thar), but the marriage never actually happened. It was originally held off due to circumstances involving fyres, then it just ended up totally being dropped because everyone was running for their lives. Viv was separated from her immediately family, but eventually located some older relatives and stayed with them in the country. They went looking for other survivors after a while, eventually finding that mehzor group. Despite her traditional background, Viv was always more dominant and outspoken for a girl. Being a smart and confident lady led others to look to her for leadership, despite her age in comparison to most of the people in the group. She didn’t realize that she had come to power for a while, but when she finally did, rather than feel happy, it made her very lonely. She may be dominant and confident, but she still just wanted to get married, have churl, ect ect. She unhappily came to the conclusion that sacrifices must be made and tried not to think about it. While the group was roaming in the south, looking for a permanent base, they came across Mel wandering by her lonesome. Their completely opposite upbringings always gave them something to talk (and argue) about and they quickly became friends.

Later, after the mehzor base was destroyed, Viv searched the wreckage for any survivors. There had been bloodless, but they burned in the fire, so there were only ashes. Absolutely no one. She wandered into the forest and happened to find a necklace that Holly always wore, leading her to believe that the Susan's smallest family member was still alive. She searched for days, but to no avail, though she did come across something rather useful- a winged lion, and a tame one at that. It seemed to like her, but she soon realized it was interested in the pendant; this lion was linked to the Susan family in some way. Now she flies across Kir-Kara on the lion, still in search of Holly. She located the whereabouts of the remaining Susan family as well, but hasn't contacted them yet out of shame. She should have kept their little girl safe in the first place...

Lerola Sorbica is a young princess who was only married for about a year when her husband died during the fyre outbreak. Originally from Cirvindale, she was married off to nearby royalty that also resided along the border- even closer to Kir-Kara in fact. It was a massive castle; a place where nearby royalty often held meetings. She had met her to-be husband here many times before, as well as Emile. Emile was a douche. Anyway, she was here during the fyre outbreak and the local peasantry stormed the castle. In the chaos, her husband was killed. Some of the peasants that overtook the castle were possessed and the inside of the castle pretty much became a prison for subjects of the possessed to torture in various ways. After a while, there were very few non-possessed people left, so the possessed stopped killing them off. Instead, they used them for servants and entertainment, a la Lerola. She lived in this torment for a while (at least two years?), when she was rescued by a warrior lehmori and mehzor. Personality-wise, she’s very uppity and thinks highly of herself, despite being beaten down and her husband dying. She tries to abstain from calling much attention to herself much anymore, as class in the society she once knew has all but gone.

*May redo her personality slightly, so she's more humble instead of still being a prissy priss. More like... Rikka! :3

Stacy is an average Kir-Kara (lehmori) girl, living in a large family on a farm. Tick, or rather, Emile Darkof, is the prince of a northern family. Tick sneaks out of the castle often to visit his BFFs Stacy and Kurry. He goes by the name Tick when on the streets to come off as unappealing, and people generally leave him alone. He unintentionally lured Kurry out of the closet with his… Well, look at him. He’s freakin pink. He was cool with Kurry though, telling no one other than Stacy. He eventually ran away to Ciu with Stacy, hoping to find a better life (and not get married, ew). They ended up in Tanyas however, where Stacy was killed by a possessed person, and soon after turned into a bloodless. Tick carried her dead body, looking for help, and came across Gary’s cabin. In his hysteria, he didn’t notice she was already dead. Gary let him stay for a bit, but Tick ran away after Stacy’s body vanished. Tick’s current location is unknown, but Stacy is “happily” living in the basement of a homicidal Caragian.

Tiz came from an average torzek family of five. He was BFF with Dan in middle-high school and had a fake-but-not thing for Uzi, always hitting on her like a fiend. He was a prankster, a gamer, and a son of a meep. He was separated from his family during the fyre outbreak and has never seen anyone he knows since, presuming they’re all dead. Presently, he is under the “protection” of a gaggle of rabisu girls that use him for nommins. As such, he is considerably less cheery than he once was.

Nalon Curmudgeon's mother wanted a girl to name Natuka, after her grandmother, but they had a boy. She still wanted a ‘na’ name, so Nalon. Nalon flippin’ hates his name, so, lastnameplz. After Nalon, she had twin boys, and was still unhappy without a little girl. But she gave them NORMAL names. Lucky morons. But then she had her sweet little angel, Natuka. At this point, their mother was so frantic about having a girl that she practically dismissed all of her boys’ existence. After Natuka’s eyes were removed (they stopped working properly and were causing her pain), her twin brothers were jealous of the attention she received, but Nalon was just outright afraid of the little girl. She just stared with her creepy eyeless face, seemingly boring into your soul. Or so Nalon thought. He simply avoided her. His dad worked at the barracks where boys were trained to be warriors. More particularly, he worked in the area where weapons were stored as a janitor of sorts. It was a menial job, but it worked out well with the pay, hours, blah blah. Like any other young man, Cur wanted to be a warrior some day, so he found the job to be interesting at first, then embarrassing. It’d be much cooler to have a warrior for a dad, rather than a person who cleans up after them, you know. When harvesting the crops, Cur would often play warriors with his siblings, using the scythes as their warrior weapons. Cur grew very fond of the curvature of the scythe, and was generally attracted to anything curvaceous from then on.

He was six when his sister died. His father was at work, as usual for that time of day, while he, his mother, and siblings worked out in the fields. Cur had wandered a bit away from his brothers today, working alone instead. After a bit, he got an uneasy feeling and looked over his sh- BWOASHITEMPTYEYES. He got freaked out as she just STAAARED, so he went away, but she followed him. She kept following him every time he went away, so he started running and she started running and she was getting closer and he kept looking over his shoulder and getting freaked out and suddenly she caught him and they fell in a hole. He accidentally stabbed her when they fell and got stuck with a dying (then dead) little empty eyed, impaled girl, still staaaaring at him, stuck on top of him. He was stuck like that for at least a day in utter silence. After that day, he could no longer stand it being completely quiet, otherwise he’d start to have a panic attack.

Cur was pretty much effed up after that and sucked at personal relations with people. He grew apart from his family (his mom practically disowned him after that anyway) and would get into fights with most anyone, at home, school, or work. As he got older, he attempted to have normal relationships- friends, lovers, ect, but it was difficult. He pretty much gave up and just lived on his own, far out in the country. There he was allowed to blast music, shoot guns, ect without getting yelled at by stupid neighbors. His only companion was Quintillion, a warrior weapon he stole from his dad’s workplace.

Cur first learned of the fyre outbreak on tv, but he didn’t pay much attention to it. It only directly affected him a while later when he came across a battlefield of dead warriors. A possessed insurrection had caught them off guard and since no one could tell who was what, countless warriors were slain in the confusion. He ignored the battlefield at first, disturbed by the bodies, but he later got an idea. He still had takein (stuff that lets you communicate with warrior spirits) that he had stolen from his father, so he went to the battlefield holding it, thus able to hear the weapons. He picked all the weapons from the field, storing them in his house. Sometime later, he had built a room just for the weapons, and would actively seek battlefields to add more damaged weapons to his collection.

Sadie and Rambi came from a very country family who hunted all their meals. However, the family didn't shove one practice on their children like most families do; they exposed their kids to different options of eating- nommin the whole thing from solo hunts, group hunts, and non-killing feeding where only blood was consumed. Sadie and Rambi differed in their ideas on the matter; it's pretty obvious who is what. They both always wanted to leave home to explore though. Since Kir-Kara was in shambles, they decided to treat it like a playground and go exploring. Sadie went waaay north, where he apprehended Lemon eventually and decided to try to find Rambi again, lugging the gift aaaall over the place. This was freakin' traumatizing for poor Lemon, obviously. xD;;; I don't even know how long before they met again! Meanwhile, Rambi met Jarv/Susan family, befriended them, yadda yadda. She finds fodder endearing in a way that we find animals, so she doesn't want to kill them, but she wouldn't be a huge baby about it like I made her be sometimes. :P After the incident where Sadie uh... gifted Rambi with Lemon, he kinda flew off his own way again. He went to back to Ferafia, deciding to explore the city this time. Summarizing like heckkk- he met Fashio, thought it would be lolrific to take her into the wilddd, did so; severly freaked out Fashio, ect. Lulz ensued. They're out traveling somewhere now, prolly.

Caya, a city rabisu, is like one of those annoying protestors that makes a huge deal about things no one cares about. She researches about food production and stuff like a nut, getting more and more FURIOUS the more she finds out. UNETHICAL TREATMENT, OMGGG. D8< She's against the food industry, fodder kept as pets (all other species are referred to as fodder, prey, or just food. Sometimes "lesser case" [case= refers to all sentient species; pronounced cah-see, like caseatrix's pronunciation kinda. ... it might be spelled casi; I forget XD]), ect. She's an extremist and thinks they should be treated the same as people. WHAT A FREAK. She started a movement against the industries and crap and has a small following. Personality-wise, she's pretty annoying. She likes to dominate every conversation and has a hard time shutting up to let others get a word in, especially when arguing. She -tries- not to though because she's not stupid and knows that she'll just look like a raving lunatic if she runs her mouth like crazy. She's much more composed during public appearances/debates/ect, espeeecially if the media gets involved.

One thing Caya found while researching was a really old text talking about possibilites of rabisus eating stuff other than meat. She was like 8OOOO OMG, but at the same time, unsure because it might just be some old crack legend. Well. Domino was unsure for her, actually. But Caya was SO INTO IT and wanted to INVESTIGATE. So it suddenly turned into some RPG or something where she planned out an adventure to find MAGIKUL ARTIFACTS/books/something spread across Riria. She only wanted to take a very small expedition, so she chose herself and Domino. She left the group in the hands of someone else she trusted and, after careful planning, set out on the adventure with her homie G.

Caya's omgbff is Domino. She's not like Caya much, but they've been friends since childhood and stick together regardless. Domino isn't crazy about about the movement (but then again, no one but Caya is that insane about it ._.). She's very quiet opposed to Caya and doesn't talk in public at all really. She's rather shy due to being an outcast (dude, freakishly tall albino chick?), but she's not like... a wuss or anything. Well. A little, emotionally. She can get hurt by ridicule if it hits just right, though she's generally used to "omg u big ugly white thing! >8O" and such by now. She could probably punch peoples' faces off in defense as well, but wouldn't because, being a city bisu, she wasn't raised like that. That's more of a country/slums bisu thing. She helps Caya out with rehearsing speeches and crap, thinking up rebuttals and such, since Caya can't think of them sometimes like the silly she is. She's the only one Caya won't interrupt annoyingly all the time.

Caya and Domino traveled for a ways, eventually ending up out in Kir-kara. They were all shocked to come across another bisu. PLOT HOLE I FORGET HOW CILANTRO GOT OUT THERE. But that aside (xD;;;), she was lost and pretty much dying because food is flippin' scarce in the ravaged land. Then these wacko vegans come up, all preachin' about their MISSION. So Cil was like "o-o... YES. I AM SO FOR THIS HOW LUCKY THAT WE MET OUT HERE." because they had a food source and she'd be so dead without them. She's still traveling with them because it's not like there's any way she can get back home easily and she doesn't want to starve. But she's totally BS'ing the crap out of them; she secretly thinks they're retarded nuts, like any normal bisu would. She keeps playing along for the noms though, but secretly wants to just tear open their food source. They were really fascinated to have "such a cultured country bisu," because they're usually gruff ruffians. HILL BILLIES. The kind that still HUNT THEIR PREY AND EAT THEM ALIVE SOMETIMES OMG. But not Cil. She's so proper. How wonderful. 8D! ... She doesn't eat them alive at least, though. :3;

Timmy is sort of a ditz like Fashio. Less ignorant, but still. He is came from a suburb rather than the city, which added to his as upbringing. His family hunts occasionally, but aren't totally into it. They don't let their kids hunt until they reach a certain age. It's kind of an age rite of passage thing for bisus of that class. For all bisus, being a predator/dominant is a very important thing, even for the most 'cultured' of city bisus. The more country you get, the more vital it is to your status. It would be super shameful to fail the hunt, and THE ULTIMATE SHAME POSSIBLE to freaking be preyed upon. So basically, Timmy failed at LIFE on his first hunt ceremony, which took place at Frankie's since his family got poofed there around when he was to have it and his family is very punctual with dates. Don't let any weird crazy poofing get in the way! GO OUT THERE AND HUNT. Timmy: Kay, Dad. o-o Then you know what happened. He became the prey. Not only that, but he TOTALLY WUSSED OUT and hid like a TOTAL PANSY and ALMOST. DIED. SO. MUCH. SHAMEEEEEE. How could he LIVE WITH HIMSELF? Totally couldn't go back to his parents like this. All failure-ish and bleedy. So he just kind of wandered and passed out. I'm going to summarize a lot, but basically, he never saw his parents again.

When he woke up, he was the fodder. There are all sorts of freakos in Frankie's place and one just so happened to come across a FIERCE BISU... passed out on the floor. LOL. That'd be funny to stick him in a cage and treat him like an animal. A few months of abuse and stripping (as in, tearing him down emotionally, ect) later, he was poofed to freedom suddenly! ... And there she was. The same lady that SHOT HIS HEAD OFF. And only a few months after she initially shot him. By then he TROOLY WAS... the most timid rabisu! And yeah, Les tossed him in some holding cell and who knows what happened after that. Maybe the vegan ladies rescue him?

Fashio Olice is a what I would refer to as a "generic human" in our culture. I don't know how to describe it, but... Likes MONEY, spending money, buying pointless things, being skinny, being cute/ect, having boyfriendsss, having expensive things, and being generally ignorant of the big picture. For an American, that's a generic young-ish human female. Fashio is like. "Generic rabisu young female." It's not the same obviously, since it's not America, but hopefully that makes sense. The generic city bisu is what Caya is not. Just eats without eeever thinking of where it comes from, hears about a country bisu hunting for their food and laughs, thinking it's fake/a joke/something, likes looking cute and going shopping, having sweet robots, ect. So... I guess I could have just said she's an ignorant ditz. xD

Asef is a very proper dude; a soldier in the bisu army/whatever. The army rarely gets called into service, seeing that there haven't been any wars in a veeery long time, though they also double as police, dealing with bisu on bisu stuff as well as border issues (though that's in the country). Asef stuck to the city, but recently the bisu government put forth relief efforts to help the neighboring countries from the bloodless invasion. Since bloodless, fyres, ect, completely dismiss rabisus as targets, it is easy for them to dispose of them. Also, the bloodless had reached their precious Lamonda-Ishnx, threatening the food supply. The biggest danger out there would be hostile survivors really, seeing that no one really likes bisus and they have no way of publicly announcing that they're sending aid, not DOOM. Anyway, Asef was deployed in the field. Personality-wise, he's very calm and orderly. He likes to be in command and HATES INCOMPETENT IDIOTS. They should be shot. D:< Er. :| They should be dismissed from service. He doesn't lose his temper easily, but he's scaaaryyy when he does. He has hunted his own food once before, but it was a one time dealio.

100 or so years ago, Caragia decided it wanted to ally with another nation. Kaburn and Fenc-Rati were the top two competitors for this “competition” and thus had many relations with them back then. Both nations were given the honor of freezing a few of their species to be magic. 100 years later, Fenc-Rati had won the competition, but there was still a baby ermite that was thawed out. Desmonda was raised by Caragians as if she was one and was an average student. She specialized in stuff relating to fyres, bloodless, ect. She went off the deep end for unknown reasons (it was rumored that she removed her essence) and moved to Spirchet. She stayed in Tanyas for a short while, observing the amount of fyres/ect that had infiltrated the area. She found a bloodless there, captured it, and moved to Ciu. She now lives there, housing the pet bloodless in her basement. She feeds it every so often, like a freak.

Lemon is a Caragian student, studying the art of conjuring and commanding beasts. During a trip to study the wildlife and lands of Riria, he encountered an unexpected peril. Not the fyres, of course; Caragians knew what they had unleashed upon the land and weren’t stupid enough to go to Riria unequipped for such an encounter. What they weren’t expecting though, was a rabisu so far from home. One bash in the back of the head later, Lemon woke up in a sack, his limbs bound and a buttload of pain circulating through him. Wtf did that bisu do to him. :c After failing to escape a few times, Lemon would eventually fall into the custody of the rabisu’s sister, Rambi, who was actually a nice lady. Even better, she didn’t seem to consider him property. She was living with a family of mehzors- the Susan family- and sort of just ended up staying with them.

Lewis is an average Caragian student who disappoints his parents. He studies animation, in the sense that he can bring objects to "life." Currently, he is able to bring objects to "life" by assigning bits of essence from himself or others to them. Usually, he only does this temporarily, but there are a few objects that have run off before the essence could be reassigned, such as The Pepper and Angry Box. He allows Box to stay animated with a bit of his own essence on purpose though, for "storage." Also, he luffs Box. As for HHC, Walking Pie, and Walking Cheese... Er, don't ask about them. He's still studying to perfect his abilities as well as moving onto the next step... Which is a secret, shh. :3 He had a pet gatimo when he was little that he sort of saw as a brother and taught to do lesser magic.

Talking Pepper scares Lewis. He was one of his first reanimation attempts- he tried it on a scary looking pepper that his mom was trying to make him eat. His mom didn’t force him to eat that thing though. She threw it away instead. The Pepper wouldn’t leave him alone though; it always found a way to get back to him, even after being flushed down the toilet. The Pepper just likes his creator SOOO MUCHHHH. But then the Pepper grew up and wanted to find his true love, so he sailed across the ocean to Ciu. There he found the most beautiful woman in the world- Toxicate~ He constantly tries to woo her, always popping up when least expected, but he’s not very good at it. He may have tourettes (or maybe he’s just retarded) because he shouts very random things a lot.

Angry Box was… Probably the worst thing Lewis ever reanimated. It was involved in some sort of murder and… Well, it’s an angry box. Since its reanimation, it has redecorated its form slightly, adding ‘teeth’ to the lid/opening areas so it can bite people.

Cambur's dad was a slaver, as was his dad's dad, and so forth. One could say it was in their delicious lemon flavored blood. He was raised soley by his dad, as many young boys were, but unlike many other boys, he came from a priveledged family. Being a slaver, his dad was well off opposed to the average male relgna. His dad left him in the care of his friend while he was out at sea until he was old enough to accompany him on jobs. Cam grew into the field, eventually acquiring his own boat when he gathered enough experience. A boat wasn't cheap though, so he lived on it instead of buying a house first. The job is the most important thing.

Nora was also raised by his father, but not alone- his dad, unlike Cam's, didn't call his mate just a 'friend' that happened to be around. As such, his family life was much more affectionate; hugs, kisses, and cuddles all around! Even so, he was of course brought up being taught that this was something you only do at home. That's just a norm with relgnas. His family was average, money-wise, so he didn't have many opportunities like Nora. He had an apartment and was working two jobs around the time he met Cam at a bar. After they went out for a while, Nora moved in with Cam and only worked one job (Cam wanted to provide for him, since he's so well off, but Nora didn't want to feel like a leech, so he kept the one job).

Bang came from the north, hence his darker fur. He wasn’t a very good churl and the only reason he didn’t end up in the mines sooner was because northerners prefer local punishment. Around 13, he stole a lesser dragon and flew away from his home town. He released the hot dragon and laid low in a city for a while, but started stealing crap again. He moved on shortly and kept up the pattern, gradually moving across the country until he hit the southern shore. He got to working on Aeron’s ship, uh… Somehow. "He might have hopped aboard during the clamor and when Aeron noticed, he was giddy enough about the whole situation that she was just like FINE WHATEVER GET IN THE RIGGING or something. XD" - Swee; YES, that. But he didn’t plan sticking with it for long, seeing that he liked bouncing around so much. The canons were SO OSSIMMMM THOUUUGH 8D. Also, he eventually found that he rather liked working with a team; it was like a family that you didn't have to shun in public. Also, the captain was danged smexy, not that Bang's dumb enough to expect anything. Anyway, unluckily for him, his crimes finally caught up with him and he got landed in the mines when some of the crew were caught. It’s actually… Not so bad though, seeing that he’s in a group rather than a lone target. / He dropped out of school early, obviously, so he sucks at talking… Not that he lets that stop him. Despite wading around in crime for so long, he’s generally a mild, not confrontational guy. He goes by Bang because well, he likes that noise. And… What the heck was the thing his dad named him…? Well, whatever, Bang works just as well.

Ruby Mancha Keresoh was a most unusual case- raised by her father rather than her mother. Usually, when the much rarer females are born, the mother prefers to raise them (to be lady-like), but the mother let her dad and his mate raise her. The 'average' couple were stupidly happy to have such a privilege, and sort of became the hit in their town. Ruby was a special kid and everyone was always showering her and her family in gifts. Though her family had an average income, she had a priveleged childhood and, like all females, was destined to one day be incredibly rich. Due to being raised where she was though, she was more humble than the average girl. All of her friends were boys, all of the parents were boys, so she acted like a boy. She was a very happy kid, until she got older and realized what responsibilites she would have to face in her adult years. She didn't want to have a bunch of kids, live in a fancy place where everyone oggled her to death, wanting her babies, ect ect. Grossss. And BORING. Just having babies all the freakin' time. And getting super fat. Fat may be pretty, but she didn't want to be pretty- she wanted to run around like an idiot, playing with her friends, working a job, and being normal. A normal dude. Someone who had one mate instead of many. How freaking unromantic and depressing it would be! Bluh, just BLUH. When she was 18, people starting oggling her and treating her like a girl, so she got fed up and decided to run away. She felt bad for leaving her parents behind, but felt she didn't have a choice. She brought only things she really needed and left the town she grew up in. She wore clothes that hid her features (which were thankfully not very prominent in the first place) and, if anyone asked, her pampy was lost in some horrible accident when she was younger. Yes, well, that could happen and was a horribly embarrassing thing. She had to practice being embarrassed about it, because obviously she wasn't really since she never had one. Anyway, her plan failed horribly because she forgot to bring a map of any sort. You're out in the middle of the country, sweetheart, that's not a good thing to do. So, she hitched a ride on a vehicle that happened to be stopped ahead. She was too afraid to talk yet, not sure if her act as a boy was perfect yet, so she hid somehow. The large vehicle traveled off to wherever and she fell asleep wherever she hid at just as it started to get dark. She was awoken by being smacked in the head by the butt of a gun. It was so totally illegal to be hitching rides on government vehicles, so she was tossed in prison along with the rest of the prisoners inside the thing. BEST LEGAL SYSTEM EVERRRR.

Should also mention that feminism and masculinity are pretty much flipped in Saramela. Females are very dominant, emotionally strong, "jerks," and have deeper voices (but not like, exaggeratedly so). Girls tend to only be like that, but for guys, there are two main categories- masculine and feminine males. Stereotypical masculine males (by their definition of masculine) are dainty, submissive, physically weak, emotional, like sparkly/cute things, have higher voices, ect. Feminine males are like the bridge between the two, having mostly feminine qualities, but not as extreme as actual females. Typically, a masculine guy gets together with a feminine guy (the standard "straight" to them). If two fem-guys or two guy-guys got together, it would be the equivalent of being gay by their standards. A girl with a girl would just be. Wtf. Anyway, reason behind this explanation being that Mancha is a weirdo. She's a masculine girl, which doesn't really happen... So she doesn't have to try to act like a boy- she already does.

Gatalyn’s dad was one of the truly 'straight' relgnas, his only lover being Gatalyn’s mom, and thus, Gatalyn was raised with only one parent. He had an averagely average childhood and his views on sexuality pretty much matched his dad's. As such, he was looking forward to a rather lonely life in that sense. He kind of liked being alone anyway. With this in mind, he jumped at the opportunity for a particularly odd job that he came across. It involved being shipped off to some place called Tanyas to be a housekeeper or something for some rich person. It was a pretty remote place up in the mountains and, to him, seemed like a haven in comparison to the crowded streets of the city. He was accepted for the job and got shipped away to Tanyas. Upon his arrival he discovered that the said rich person was a really old relgna lady who had used her riches to buy a house in the beautiful country land of Tanyas, away from all the craziness of Saramela, similar to Gatalyn's idea. That was about all they had in common though. She was soooooo oolddddd and grumpy and annoying and afiodhfiosdf. He regretted the decision after a while and started getting lonely. The old lady was anything but company and the only other person in the house was her weird slave mow. That freakin' mow. It always seemed to be following him like a creeper. Who would want to hang out with a stupid mindless slave though? So annoying.

After two years, Gatalyn was half relieved, half horrified to find that the old woman had kicked the can in her sleep. Nothing really happened after that though. He wrote back to the people that gave him the job and she was buried... But that was it. There was no ride back to Saramela offered, no one came to possess the house and the stuff inside it... Just. Nothing. So he had a huge house and a mow slave, alone out in the mountains. Just like he originally wanted. But he wasn't happy. It was nicer without the old lady, but he was still lonely. The mow became considerably more talkative once the old lady died, as if she were trying to befriend him or something. Clingy freakin' mows. So annoying, so... Well. He couldn't blame her really. She was just lonely too. He put his taught racism towards mows aside for her and they became friends, making it considerably less lonely there. Also, he finally bothered to remember that she had a name, Lukrezia. Gatalyn learned mow things from Luk and Luk learned relgna things from Gatalyn. As a result, Gatalyn became considerably less mow-racist and Luk... Well, Luk dyed her tail green. And added some cute little stripes to her arms.

Weird things weren't done happening at the house though; about a year later, they found a strange little gatimo girl while taking a walk in the forest. She was a sickly shade of grey with creepy translucent pink eyes and acted extremely lethargic, as if she wasn't really "there" anymore. Skipping some stuff 'cause it's taking too long to summarize, they got her name, Nashika, out of her and kept her at the house with them. She vaguely became less blah over time, but not much. Then, one day she was suddenly orange and yellow with crazy bright green eyes. Also, lively as FRAK. Gatalyn, Luk, and Nashika were kind of like a little family; a weird, platonic, tri-species little family. Skipping moreeee, all was well until Gatalyn got in trouble involving a mow catcher thing, was arrested, and dragged back to Saramela on the slave ship it came from. Lukrezia and Nashika were left behind, not caught. The legal system in Saramela must suck, 'cause he was pretty much just shipped off to the mines for who knows how long. That's where he met Manny Chacha. The two were both total wusses and socially awkward, so they ended up forming a little band.

Tall pines blocked the early morning sun, shrouding a small cabin in the forest from light and warmth. Gary Amplias wouldn’t have been able to notice the lack of warmth if he wanted to though. When he was a young boy out exploring the forest, a zephon had attacked him, tearing his essence right out of him. At the time, there were only rumors about the malevolent beasts roaming the land, but the attack on young Gary had confirmed the horror, leading to the inhabitants being more careful about exploring alone. The new precautions proved successful and there were no more colorless people. It was too late for Gary though, who was never able to feel again. When one’s essence is torn away, they become languid and dull. Their flesh and hair turn a sickly shade of grey and their eyes a light shade of blue (sometimes pink), giving them the appearance of an albino in a sense, only with grey and blue rather than white and red. In addition to this, colorless people cannot see in color or feel. They can hear fine and feel some pressure, but that's it. Possible pleasure-inducing things like taste and touch are completely null though.

Gary was older now, so he was adequate at determining what his body needed even though he couldn’t feel it himself. He was in very good shape since the taste of food that tempted some to overindulge had no effect on him and the burning feeling of exercising did not deter him. Indeed he was quite a well-muscled and handsome man (lawl)... If it weren't for being a creepy-arse colorless. He glanced at the caged hypo and hyper outside, noticing the hyper bouncing around gleefully while the hypo was sluggish, indicating that it was rather cold today. He grabbed a jacket and cap to protect his unfeeling skin from the elements and proceeded outside. He took a deep breath of refreshing cool air, believing that even if he couldn’t feel it, his body appreciated the deep intake anyways. He headed over to his small shed to retrieve the axe that he would use to replenish the dwindling, but neatly stacked firewood pile next to his cabin.

It was a beautiful winter day, though it seemed like spring already with bits of greenery daring to poke up out of the soil here and there to compliment the darker greens of the conifers. The ground was very bland in comparison; a mix of fallen trees, dirt, and stone. The land may have seemed boring or of lesser beauty to some, but to Gary it was home, and as gorgeous as he always expected it to be. He contemplated how the soil would feel against his feet if he had not worn shoes when he ran through the forest as a boy. The few times he had, he could no longer remember, but it must have felt good. Wild, fresh, free. His thought continued to wander as he began hacking away at a particularly large spruce.

That evening he decided to have an old favorite- hot chocolate by a toasty fire. He never heated his hot chocolate very much nowadays in case he might make it too hot then scald his tongue without knowing it. It was a very peaceful evening, as most were at the quiet little cabin. Gary never was quite sure what possessed him to get up out of the comfortably familiar scene of happiness and go for a walk that night, but he never forgot the consequence.

It was quite a chilly night according to the hypo/hyper, so Gary put on his thick black coat and boots before heading out. His feet made a soft crunching sound as he walked across a thin layer of snow that had fallen earlier, dashing the hopes of the early sprouts. Above him an owl took off almost silently, but he caught the faint sound of flapping and looked up just in time to see it swooping off into the shadows to locate a meal where some fool wasn’t scaring off all the prey.

“That’s right; I’m just a fool tonight. Getting up in the middle of a nice sit down to trudge through the forest, disturbing the poor night creatures.” He thought to himself in an almost self-scolding manner, but his thoughts were quickly interrupted by the most unexpected noise he could imagine: a scream.

A casea scream had suddenly reverberated through the forest in such an abrupt and unexpected manner that Gary was alarmed. No, not alarmed, but disturbed by the sudden breaking of the peace. He was so dumbfounded by the noise that he stood completely still for moments that seemed like an eternity, shocked and confused. Finally coming to his senses, he ran towards the source of the scream, unarmed, but determined to help whatever had let out the tormented cry which again echoed throughout the land. When he got to the source, however, he nearly tripped and fell at the sight. A young torzek covered in mud and blood was dragging a lehmori who was sweltering with blood and unmoving. The sight would have been perfect for a cliché teenager’s slasher film with the damsels in distress and the crazy guy out in the woods, but Gary was the only guy living out in the woods and he definitely wasn’t crazy. Also, the torzek wasn't a damsel, but a dude.

/random intro to when he found Tick/Stacy that is adequate at describing him, so yeah

Retconned Reeve's original childhood. Now he just had an average one: raised by his parents, wanted to be an explorer when he was little, was always rather asocial. And now, we jump into the middle of his life so far- middle school!

When he got bored in class, he'd randomly observe people and take notes on them, sometimes even sneaking his dad's little camera in to record/take pictures without them noticing. He was a bit of a creeper in this sense. XD He just found it interesting though, the behavior of people. This is what got him into j-rizm. He saw it as a form of art of informing people, but also an evil thing that can twist peoples' view of what is actually going on around them... If you word things differently in the news, you can convey a completely different hidden message... and in a sense, brainwash people into thinking what you want them to think. Reeve didn't like that people twisted the news though and he wanted to become the best, clearest journalist ever: To be the clear window to the world, showing exactly what happened, not a window that was fogged up and dirty, contorting your view of what was really going on. And thus began his career and obsession.

He was still a really quiet kid in school, keeping up with the creepy observing every now and then, but he was always dead focused in his j-rizm classes. And when he had to speak about the news or anything to do with journalism, he spoke with great confidence and passion, which impressed his teacher and classmates, especially Mymus who thought he was SMOKIN'. After he graduated from high school, he immediately got into a great college with scholarships and stuff. He actually got his job at the Twitter before he even graduated because he was just that SICK WIT IT. He was now old enough to travel on his own, seeing as he now lived in an apartment instead of with his parents, but... He never did pursue his childhood dream of exploring, though it still tickled his fancy. He felt he was needed here and now, and the opportunities were just too great.His success story at the Twitter is rather bland- he was really good and climbed up the ladder quickly. He was respected by everyone there, even Kooby, an older woman who was... piss and vinegar-y. She wanted to see how far she could push him though, so when she helped Nuki get in the door as a rookie, she assigned him to Reeve. Reeve, of course, was all WTF?! because he hated working closely with other people. And then he was suddenly stuck with this "emo" punk kid... Who was actually not too much younger than him. But whatever, he was still a punk kid. I mean, what the HECK is up with those pants?!

Being so highly respected and well treated all the time, Reeve figured he could give this punk a bunch of flack and not receive any in return... But boy was he surprised- Nuki was as stubborn and rude as he was when he was in a terrible mood, only like... Constantly. Reeve was actually a little scared of the more muscled, usually angry-faced mutated tatzel. He kept him in line though, because Reeve wouldn't let anyone get better of him, and Nuki wasn't completely disrespectful- only when Reeve was being a jerk for no reason. Over time though, they formed a mutual respect for each other as great journalists, because they were both great- in fact, Reeve was a little jealous... Nuki almost seemed... Better. And he was, but only on paper. In person, Nuki fell apart due to his stutter and appearance. Despite how he had fought with Reeve, he was very scared of most other people in person, especially girls, Reeve noticed. This is where the friendship began to brew... They were off the job, hanging out at some place (a place with EGGS I bet, because they were having a dern good time), and Reeve'd tease Nuki about going up to girls, which made Nuke die with embarrassment. They started hanging out more and more off the job, and when Nuki could no longer stay at his house, Reeve let him move in with him at his apartment. Then they hung out a lot and... Yeah. :3 PRESENT DAY. And Nuki likes videogames. And animals. So all of those moved in with him. xD Reeve hated the animals, but started liking the videogames. They also had an awkward gay moment when they fell asleep on the couch together, but Reeve didn't think anything of it after the awkwardness died, because he still doesn't know Nuki's half gay. Nuki was probably a lot more aaaaaaaaaaahhhh about it because... Reeve is sexai. o3o

Nuki's dad was a grumpy as HELL jerk of a guy, with good reason- He was a half breed and an accident. Half lehmori, half nonpoisonous tatzel. His mother put him up for adoption when he was very young, and he spent his entire life in an orphanage because no one wanted him. He didn't have much of an education either. But one day he met an angel. After he got in a fight (the other guy called in a few friends, so they really tore him up), he was in the hospital and met a nurse; the most gorgeous nonpoisonous tatzel he'd ever seen in his life. Now, Nuki's dad wasn't a very hopeful guy, and he wasn't stupid either. He figured she was probably already taken because she was so sweet and beautiful- and she didn't even seem to notice how furry and lehmori-ish he was; she was as kind to him as any other, and he was in LURVE. And much to his surprise... They eventually got together. -won't go into too much detail about that 'cause I guess it's not important- x3; He didn't really want a kid since he thought it'd be bad to pass on his genes, but Nuki's mom really wanted one, and she didn't care. She convinced him that they should try for one because it would only be 1/4th and then the child's children would be even less and it would eventually seem like it was never even in their lineage.

And so, Nuki was born. The father was distraught because Nuki was even more messed up than he was- the father had no mutations, but Nuki had freaky ears and splat (also, lehmori-clawed hands and feet). He almost didn't want him, but the mother loved him instantly, just as she's loved Nuki's dad. The dad learned to accept him quickly though, because they were so similar, but he was very hard on him. It was because he loved him that he was hard on him though- he didn't want anyone else to push him around for what he looked like on the outside, how he had been pushed around. Nuki, of course, didn't understand this at a young age, and hated his father. Nuki was a very angry child and got into fights at school- much more deadly ones than what Reeve had gotten into. Nuki was feirce and maybe even stronger than the average tatzel. Indeed, he spent much of his time out of school weightlifting and such. He got pretty big and muscley too, and wanted to be a fighter (boxer/whatever) when he grew up. His dad noticed how angry he was and how his grades/reputation at school were dwindling, so he had a talk with him. He explained how lucky Nuki was that he even GOT to go to school and told him of his past. Nuki was about 13 at this time and still rather angry with his father. But now that he was older, things made more sense, and it wasn't long before he understood... He started working out less and getting better in school. His father started being more openly supportive (with the guidance of his mother, seeing as his dad was still kind of affection-showing-retarded, especially towards his son), and Nuki's hatred for everything started lessening... Although he still hated everyone in school, including most of his teachers who were racist.

Nuki was still irritated and wished he could get back at these stupid people. The discovery of journalism opened a door to him- for almost the exact same reason as Reeve... It was a way society's mind could be twisted, an amazing power... But Nuki didn't want a clear window like Reeve, no, he WANTED this power. He wanted to make people think what he wanted to think. He wanted control. His ferocity and ambition showed in his writings, which took peoples' breath away. His racist journalism teacher was even impressed, and actually helped him get a scholarship and information on where to go to college. Nuki was bored in college; it was too easy, but he didn't get in the door as easily as Reeve. He graduated college and was still having a tough time getting in, but FINALLY. He had sent an application over the internetz to get in the Twitter and they were extremely impressed, and had requested an in person interview. This, of course, made his hopes sink. They would see him... They would hear him... But he HAD to go. He had to be brave... So he went.

They tore him apart at the interview- mercilessly, like beasts. Nuki took the heat though and tried his hardest to come across as a successful hard worker, catching the eye of Miss Alexis Kooby. She had been in his position before, only she could imagine how much harder it was with splatt, tourettes, a stutter, and various mutations. She could smell the hard-working attitude and the will to fight for the job on him, so she pulled together the others at the meeting and convinced them to let him in. Kooby was an older worker there and quite respected, so her opinion was what saved Nuki's tail. However, she would prove to be yet another obstacle- she wasn't a softie at all; she wanted Nuki's hardworking personality to show through and she gave him absolutely no slack. It was his father all over again, only with far less support. Kooby didn't care for him at all if he couldn't work, as she doesn't waste her time with such people. Nuki hated her slightly, but he got over it MUCH more quickly than he had with his father. After all, she was pretty sexy for some older chick with splatt. Just as his silly crush began developing, he was suddenly thrown into the apprenticeship of not Kooby, but some punk who was hardly even older than him. What the heck was up with those stupid sunglasses he always wore anyways? Freaking moron dork...

And so, they butted heads like stubborn males. Nuki knew he was good and wanted Reeve to know that too. And I won't repeat most of it, since it was in Reeve's story, but they became friends blah blah blah- Reeve discovered Nuki had a thing for Kooby and teased him harshly for that. Nuki STILL has a little thing for Koobers, but he'd neeever pursue it. She's a scary thinger after all. Smexy scary thinger. And besides, he figured a girl would never like him anyway; sure his dad was lucky as HECK when he snagged his mom, but he was far worse off, and would take anything he could get. A guy's not... That different... Right? >.> A girl would definitely be his first choice, but he sure as heck wasn't picky. And being gay meant you didn't have to stay with your own species, since you couldn't have kits, and Nuki knew how much more accepting some other species were. He pushed thoughts of relationships away though, since he needed to focus on writing. Also at this time, he was nowhere near as beefy as he was at 14, but he still worked out a little, so he was pretty tough. He could beat Reeve's arse if he wanted. He was also living with his parents because it was hard for him to get a job during college and rookies didn't really make anything so... Yeah. He also wanted to save up for a house, rather than an apartment, and his parents didn't really mind since he was going somewhere in his life. However, his mother died suddenly of completely unknown causes, causing much grief to the small family. After the funeral, Nuki's dad left Lorn. There was just nothing left for him there, and he couldn't stand to be there anymore. He sold the house to get enough money to travel and set up camp somewhere else, leaving Nuki alone. This is why Nuki had to move in with Reeve.

Alexis Kooby is a nonpoisonous tatzel born with splat, a mutation that replaces the normal tatzel stripes with speckled goop looking markings. Splat occurs naturally in tatzels (about 1 in 100), but is defined as a deviant, nasty thing to have due to it nearly always occurring in mixed breedings. Tatzels have the highest amount of purists in their populous, splat is most common in nonpoisonous tatzels (and doesn’t occur in vipers), and is rarer in females. All of these things are unfavorable to Kooby, who was brought up as an average middle class tatzel girl, mutation aside. In school, she was teased at first, but mostly ignored in later years. Kooby didn’t like being defined by a simple skin-altering mutation, so she sought to find a field she could be strong in to outweigh the stigma. She ended up in a field that she liked well enough- writing. That way, no one had to see your face, though she practiced being more aggressive in person anyway. After all, she had to be fierce in the interview if she wanted to earn her job. With her and her parent’s connections, her talents, and her dominance (being tall helped with that as well), Kooby was eventually able to procure a job at the Twitter. She is now an editor at the Twitter and spends her days bossing around/yelling at Reeve, Nuki, and various others that work there. Nuki thinks it’s hot.

Penelope Mymus goes by Pen though, not Penny. She thinks it sounds kiddie or something. She was the only child of a somewhat wealthy family, as viper tatzels usually are. Her father was an actor and her mother a model. She was expected to be one of these things when she grew up, and was often dressed up as a kid as they tried to shove her towards auditions for such things. She wasn't into it though, and in fact, was oddly was tomboyish. She wore her hair in a ponytail constantly and never really took care of her appearance. She liked to wear longsleeves and pants because she was shy of showing off her stripes. She argued with her parents into letting her go to public school which is where she first laid eyes on Reeve. Although Reeve was sexy, she wasn't immediately in love or anything. No, it wasn't until journalism class came along (she'd joined it just to try something different, she didn't really care) that she came to develop her crush. Reeve was so strong and confident when he got up and talked about things... She barely heard what he was even talking about; she only saw that confident look on his face and heard the tone of his voice. She was such a fangirl. Outside of classes with Reeve, she was actually quite a confident person and good at getting what she wanted. Even though she didn't do much with her appearance, the fact that she was a viper still made her very desirable with the mens and popular with the girls. She wasn't really into the stupid things girls talked about though, so she shied away from them and started hanging out with guys. A lot of the guys were just trying to... be TARDS, much to her dislike, but, seemingly by fate, the guys in journalism class ended up being her primary friends. Except for Reeve, seeing as he was antisocial and didn't hang out with the group. Thus Mymus became more and more of a 'boy', much to her parent's displeasure. Her mother even went so far to have a talk with her about how "it's okay to be gay" which REALLY pissed her off, because, you know, she's not. XD REEVEYBOO~

Lumos: HAHAHA- MYMUS. It's OKAY to be GAY. 8D *rainbow*

XDDD She continued following Reeve through his j-rizm classes. She didn't know what else to go in as a profession, and DEFINITELY did not want to fall back on being a model or something- yuck. So she went to college for journalism to further her career in it. She's not nearly as into it as Reeve/Nuki, but she does a decent job with it. She's not a stupid ditz or anything, basically. She's a pretty hard worker too, but plagued with the laziness her parents rubbed off on her. After all, she didn't have to pay for anything she did and everything was always handed to her because of her wealth, lineage, and beauty. She had nearly forgotten about Reeve actually, and was focusing on building up her career so she would no longer need mommy and daddy's help, but once she heard he'd gone to the Twitter... she HAD to follow. And Pen wasn't stupid, as said before- she knew how to get what she wanted. She dressed up, fixed her hair and everything for the interview and dazzled them with her beauty and skill. With a nice look and a nice voice, she was immediately considered for a news reporter- a pretty face to put on tv. Kooby didn't really like her, as you might imagine, but she didn't say anything against her. Pen isn't all OMGREEVE<3 anymore, but she still holds a soft spot for him, and swoons on the inside when he gets all serious and talky about things. She nearly died the time he was talking to her and called her… Penny.

Rohan Fukarski was an oddball in Lorn- a mehzor rather than the standard tatzel. Though tatzels were purists, they generally weren’t racist, but being the only mehzor in your school was another thing all together. Rohan was a snarky, rather rude dude due to being excluded from so many groups there, but he eventually befriended Reeve, who thought he was interesting. They ended up hanging out a lot, taking similar classes, and having similar interests- they were both photographer/journalist junkies. Early on, they set their sights on one day working at the Twitter. They were ttly bros then, claiming that they’d never take the job unless they both got in, regardless of how freaking amaaaazing it would be. Sadly, this wouldn’t be the case in the end. Socially, Rohan was the loudmouth that enjoyed hearing his own voice just a bit, but not many (er, no one really) liked to hear him yammer on. Instead, they’d rather hear what Reeve had to say. This was one of the things that started to create a rift between them, as Rohan became tinged with jealousy. They started hanging out a bit less and Reeve would “steal Rohan’s ideas” which pretty much shoved them apart. Reeve, of course, was less aware of it- the stealing thing wasn’t obvious to him; he was just using sources that they had talked about together. Eventually, Reeve got into the Twitter, going without Rohan. Whether he forgot their contract or what, Rohan never asked, but he was so incredibly secretly pissed at Reeve by now, he didn’t even bother to ask. Rohan now works at a photography studio, working primarily with… *shudder* children. Can you believe it. He’s able to put on a façade for the job, but you better bet he has RAEG later in the day. He still visits Reeve occasionally, all PEESED when he does, but Reeve’s just like “:D; Hi, Rohan!” which makes him even more PEESED.

Mitzi Belammy was born in Caragia. Her parents decided that they wanted to raise their biological child instead of having a baby and adopting a frozen one like a normal person. After 10 years, they changed their mind and shipped Mitty off to Ciu to be with other non-magicals and adopted a son (Lewis). Mitty was always sent royalties by her parents and was well off in that sense, but she never felt loved. She was raised by a servant in a high up apartment complex in Rixa City and went to a private school. Once she graduated, she wanted to be more involved in the outside world, so she bought a communal living house. Her long time penpal from Rixa, Kit, agreed to move in with her if she did, as well as Charlie, so it was like yeeey, three pipple! Mitty was still well off, but her parents didn’t send her as much crap since she was of age, so it was more beneficial to live with more people. They did okay in the first few years though, so they didn’t worry about it too much, though they rented out the extra room from time to time. Mitty is confidentshy, which makes no sense. I suck at describing her.

Umbra Szuras is a lovely little fairy living in Ciu. She loves awesome bananas and looking adorable all the time! :DDD Her BFF is totally Arri, the most awesome murx you’ll ever meet!

Charlene Anne Neona grew up in Rascii City and was the less bright of the Char/Kit friendship. Her family was lower class and didn’t even expect her to finish high school. Even though she worked hard, she probably would still be in Rascii if it weren’t for Kit’s connection with Mitty. She used to be kind of violent and uncouth, but now she luffs video games, chickens, and being silly.

For some reason, Lillian Remsuan’s mom had her with some evil villain guy. She was raised normally until her dad kidnapped her and trained her to be a warrior. She met Galli in her training and they became BFF! :D But Galli mysteriously disappeared one day. :< Teroz conspired against her dad and told Lill he killed Galli, so she keeled him WITH HIS OWN WEAPON. (Eric: Yae! Take that Lill’s dad!) Then she became the EBILEST, most FIENDFUL villain evar. >B3 She killed innocent people and entire armies with her ossim weapon, all the while disguised as a dude using a deep voice and everything. And she has the SCARIEST evil laugh. Ever. It can stun/kill people. o.o Then she finally was defeated by some annoying hero guy who banished her to the duex forest. Her momma made her this ossim white dress that they forced her to wear there and they thiefed her weapon. She lived there for a while until she was magically transported to Caseatrix and- guess’ut? This was all actually a video game, and she just popped out of it O: Then she was all confused in this new world and met Kit and got to live at her house, blah blah blah. She tries to be nice, but always has urges to kill people. So she distracts herself by reading about killing people, and became obsessed with the idea of killing demons. It would certainly be better than killing off random strangers anyway. Or her roommates. She generally hates girls and thinks they’re stupid/worthless.

Tiberton Panit’s parents moved from Fenc-Rati after a horrible incident involving a pissy Caragian. Not digging too far into the details, their first born son was cursed (hello squirrel tail) and they were forced to flee the land before the lynx's wrath became more intense. It was really that bad. Unfortunately, they lost most of their possessions in the quick move, so they had to live in a lower class area, Rascii City. Tib had a normal childhood, aside from the freaky tail, and was brought up with volt ideals, however, he was also influenced by his peers a great deal. He dated Kit in high school, but realized that it didn’t feel right and that he in fact rather liked another dude on the football team. He didn’t really talk about it with his parents though ‘cause, well, he didn’t really talk about that stuff. He finally somehow mentioned it at the end of highschool however and his parents disowned him in a RAEG because he was being VERY UNVOLT-LIKE ABOUT IT. He was saying he was flat out gay instead of just like, being casual about it or whatever. You know, the volt thing. So he got kicked out and lived on his own with pretty much nothing to his name other than his motorcycle. After failing to get on on his own, he eventually found where Kit was living (they were still friends after they broke up) and she let him live in the last room they had. She said he counted as a girl anyway, so w/e. He luffs football, reading, and video games. He doesn’t really have any “stereotypical” gay traits, other than owning a pair of pink kitty slippers. For teh lulz. He also turns into a flying squirrel when quad instead of a volt because of the curse. 8D Not that he'd know.

Farid Letrau is just some douche from Ciu and Stealth’s older brother. He came to Ciu with his lil bro who only 7YRS old and took care of him by himself. He was never really affectionate towards his lil bro, but he kept him safe until they were able to go their separate ways. Now Farid lives in a communal house with some other dudes and parties whenever he’s not working or sleeping.

Stealth was born Linnae Letrau because they thought he was going to be a girl and just decided to keep the name. After ridicule in school, he started using the alias Stealth because he thought he was “uber stealthy” (he really, really isn’t). He got Ninja from an animal shelter while in Ciu and took him with him when he moved out because Farid didn’t like him. Stealth lives in a decent apartment now, living paycheck to paycheck with his crap job… And Farid still barges in on him occasionally to drag him to parties in an attempt to make him more social. Omg, noooo. :(

Chance is either an anthropologist, archaeologist, or something. Archie had him come look at Enya to try to figure out what she is. Chance was all 8OOOOOOO because he didn't know either and did a bunch of research and crap. He also just hung out with her a lot to study her/try to teach her language and crap. He later had Tarn come down and go 8OOOOO at her too. xD Tarn is an anthro-/archae/zoo-ologist. Summat. He's up near the top of Ciu though, seeing that he likes hanging out in Damaman. xD Personality-wise, Chance is an excitable, geeky kinda guy, but is good at putting a professional facade on when necessary. And he wears a bandanna around his neck- OMG. I didn't even think of that! XDDD Enya would be all "Omg, what a nice, proper person for once ;A;" xDDDD

Tarn is an excitable zoologist (or something) that has always loved animals since he was a little kit. His favorite thing like, ever, was Damaman and all of its weird creatures. He pursued his education in the field, able to get into college relatively easy due to coming from a rather well off family. He met Chance in college and they became study buddies, then eventually good friends. They work in different areas (physically and occupation..ly), but always keep in touch through phone/mail/ect, occasionally getting together for tea. Yeah, tea. Girly tea (not really). Tarn lives near Damaman, visiting often and always getting a huge thrill out of turning into an elephant.

Y'know how rabisus are really technologically advanced? In this plot, a rabisu secretly was president/whatever of Ciu. They'd pretty much run the country and crap, 'cause they SABE. The public doesn't know about it, obviously; only really high up people. However, obviously, the bisu has to eat. And he was treated very well 'cause, y'know. But recently the people decided they didn't want to be ruled over by a sicko who ate people (hey, he's a bisu, whatchu expect >:o), so they overthrew him. But they still wanted an omgsmart rabisu working for them, so they... Somehow, magically made a new bibbeh bisu. But it wasn't just a bisu. They only had the one rabisu dude and it's not like they can go over to Ferafia and kidnap someone, so they had to improvise. Originally, it was a derva/rabisu (suuuch a slap in the face, lololo; also 'yo momma wuz a bunneh'... 'cause of the ears 8D;), but if I implement that breeding restrictions thing, it'd have to be a rabisu/ermite. Anyway, they raised this FREAK OF NATURE to be their next ruler. Only he was more like a slave. They fed him like a bisu, but only blood rather than like, whole people. They exposed him to stuff they thought would help him be a normal smarty smart bisu while still treating him like a lowly thing in hopes of getting a smart, docile servant. But of course, since he wasn't raised in bisu culture, he didn't really have the... bisu touch? So he was essentially worthless. Also, his da was probably dead by now. He's now older; 18 or something and they just keep him off in some cage/something somewhere. No one really bothers with him since he failsss, but he got kept alive for some reason. Either they're waiting a bit just in case he makes progress as he gets older, someone offered to keep taking care of him, ect.

Fred and Rick are the mindbabies of Kit and Noose, unbeknownst to either of them. It’s pretty obvious though, I mean. Fred’s like a clone of Noose, but female. Adrean is the mindbaby of Frankie and Linny, also unknown to his parents. The three lived in Lala for a while. During their time there, they learned of a loophole that would let them escape to the ‘real’ world. Much adventuring later, they finally found it. They had been through a lot together- whenever one of them died, they would always search until they found him/her, endeavoring to never be split apart. And there they were, all together, about to leave this wretched place. However, there was one thing they were mildly concerned about- they would spawn close to one of the parents, but Adrean’s parents were different. They weren’t sure how far away they would spawn from him… But they had always found each other before, so they went through with it.

When they entered the real world, Fred spawned near Kit and Rick spawned near Noose. They eventually both get to Kit and she adopts them. A while later, they find Adrean, who spawned near Linny (when he named him; before then they just called him Pickle). The trio act like children, yet… creepy mature at the same time. Also, very on edge and peculiar. They find it hard to be uneasy about their grades rather than being uneasy about being killed. Among other things.

Fred was always the loud and dominant one. She likes to talk, pick on Rick, paint, and generally be artsy fartsyyy. She gleegasmed upon learning that her dad was also an artist OMG and reaaally wanted to meet him. And, figures, he hates kids, so she was like :(. Rick was the squeaky little scared one that would have died the most due to his sucky skills, but he was waaaaaay too cautious. Also, Fred and Adrean were always there to protect him. He’s quiet, shy, and loves to help. In Lala Land, he was always the worthless one in the group with nothing to offer, so being able to help with even menial tasks irl boosts his low self esteem a lot. Adrean is even quieter than Rick, though it isn’t so much due to shyness. He just lets Fred do the talking, since she’s better at it. He’s the most competent fighter of them all and didn’t do much other than protect the group, so he feels the most displaced irl. He just doesn’t know what to do with himself.

In his first life, Mobius had a rocky first few years living. Actually, he didn’t do a whole lot of living, seeing that he died often due to being young and alone with no one to teach him to defend himself. Eventually, a death would teleport him to an area with these weird goop monster things that raised him as one of their own. The society of goop monsters had specific norms and regulations which Mobius adopted unquestionably. One of these norms was the no-touch rule: you are not allowed to touch anyone or anything unless you give it permission to kill you (basically). The law was a bit more extensive than that, defining how intimate relationships and such can be formed, but that’s the gist of it. He lived strictly by their norms, even after he died and was separated from them (4-5 years after finding them). In his present life, he is aging like he did in Lala Land. As he lives here, memories of living in Lala Land are constantly filling his head, as if he is in two places simultaneously. When he sleeps, he has vivid dreams of his other life which he always remembers clearly as if they were memories. Due to this, he feels as if he never sleeps, so he’s very tired all the time. Although he has the body of an eight year old, he’s only existed on Caseatrix for two years, so his grandparents are at a loss as what to do with him, school-wise (among other things). Currently, he has “just met” the goobs and is learning their ways. The conflicting ideas of goob norms and what his grandparents have been teaching him are very confusing and give him way too much stress for someone of his age. He also feels very lonely because no one believes him when he tells them about his alternate life. He’s still too young to grasp that people think he’s crazy, but he’s still a very sad little child. But. Toilets are awesome. At least this place has toilets.

Valerian Voski Vespaspianus

She always wears her hair down, disliking putting anything in it that would cause irritation. She likes wearing clothes that are comfortable, so, t-shirts and knit pants usually. She doesn't care what she looks like as long as it doesn't bring attention to her. She usually ends up wearing greys or other dull colors because she thinks it makes her look boring; essential for warding off people that might try to talk to her. The horror. She usually adorns her tail with wrapped vines. Sometimes she may even decorate her tail with flowers, but never would let anyone see her all "dressed up" like that; she wouldn't want anyone to know that she actually likes to try to look pretty sometimes. She used to wear a yellow and green neckscarf that she had since she was very young, but recently an evil guy burned it. He's such a jerk. She hates having her neck exposed because beneath that scarf is a thin metal necklace encrusted with a single red-violet jewel in the front. Also, you know, the neck is a phytel's sexy place; shield your eyesss! Another person she hates put it there and it's welded on or something, so she can't just take it off. Dartanion gave her a sky blue neckscarf to comfort her, which she would have secretly fawned over (it's her favorite color) if she weren't so depressed at the time.

Enya's personality changes depending on who she's around. When she was young, she used to be cheerful around everyone, but when she hit adolescence, she chose to keep the cheery attitude for her friend and family only. When she lived in Ableosis City, she discovered that how you acted around certain people could mean life or death, so she became extra cautious... Well, okay, she became paranoid. It seemed unlikely that she would ever be anywhere as cheerful as she used to be when she was younger, but one day she unexpectedly came to the treehouse... And she was free of those people in Ableosis that wanted to hurt her. It was safe here, but she still didn't let her guard down. She finally had a place to herself, so she just stayed in there all the time, avoiding everyone. When she did have to interact with others, she was usually snarky and rude, wanting to appear as if she were confident and possibly dangerous, so no one would mess with her. That's about how she is now, though her paranoia and insecurity may shine through to someone she's more than just an acquaintance to.

Presently, Enya is staying at Rylz's apartment, and thus has to put up with him often. Before now, it might have appeared that they hated/disliked each other, but now that she has to live with him, she's subtly attempting to befriend him, or something. Despite past discrepancies, she trusts him more than other people. Rylz's sister also makes frequent appearances, though Enya isn't as eager to put her trust in her. She's a tad bit sexist due to past experiences, not to mention Saki's kind of annoying. The person Enya likes the most in the apartment is probably Rylz's pet, Cherio. It's a lot easier to trust a non-sentient creature that can't betray you after all (and Cherio's adorkable).

Cuyo is an average phieri phytel. He’s loyal to phieri only and thinks everyone else is a noob, making him a bit close-minded. He’s a perfect phieri, really; being able to perform any mountain-related task, tame any sefu, and make profitable trades with afore mentioned noobs. He’d be a great mate and father… So why does she not even NOTICE him? D8 QQ

Demont Dayito is a bit of a freak for a phytel, socially. He was raised as a Saudi with his parents and another pair of phytels. The other two had a baby girl, who would always call him Monty. The adults always assumed they would become mates, so they never bothered to correct her. Though they called him his proper nickname, Mont, he came to identify himself as Monty. Two younger siblings later, Monty’s parents decided to seek a clan to live in for protection. His family split from the Saudi group, but left Monty with them so he could later marry the girl. But, boo on it all, the Saudi party later got caught in the middle of a phytel/kzpatl battle where he was separated from them all. He was too young to be romantically attached to the girl, so he wasn’t absolutely destroyed by losing her (not all omg spend my life trying to find mai troo luv againnn or anything). He was very sad and scared though, being all alone in a dangerous world (he was… 10-ish?). He managed to live on his own for a while, until Marsha and Anto stumbled onto him and decided to take the little weirdo with them. More likely Marsha took pity on the poor thing and chided Anto for wanting to leave him for long enough that he relented.

To know about Francium, you must also know about her mother a bit. Her mother's name was Neon, and she was an evil woman that traveled from planet to planet, eradicating people in mass genocide- people with genetic diseases that "threatened the species as a whole." Neon eventually came to Caseatrix to do her evils there- but she had not been expecting a planet that would /defend itself/. When she tried to set up her machines and things that she used to take control of planets, she was foiled by the planet's magic as well as its current peacekeeper, Sungera. Afterwards, she was prevented from doing any serious damage by magical bindings. She still continued to do less threatening things however, and this is how Francium was created. Francium doesn't actually have "parents" because she is a clone; a clone of Neon. It was an accident of course, and Neon had no desire to raise a miniature of herself, so she ditched the kitten in a nearby dumpster (she lived in Ableosis City). So Frankie was abandoned, with nothing more than a name.

Frankie was left with a tag with her name on it, so when a young human girl found her in the dumpster, she decided to keep the name, only she mostly called her Francie instead, while the young woman's newlywed husband, called her Frankie. Frankie eventually favored her current name because she was tomboyish as a youngster and thought it wasn't too girly. She was raised by the couple for her entire childhood and was quite happy, although the city was 85% humans, so she never really saw many anthros, and thus pretty much considered herself human, even though her parents had told her early on that she was adopted, and was in fact, an anthro. As a child, she had friends, but as she got older, humans wanted less and less to do with her, including her own father, who divorced her mother when she was 14. By that time, Frankie only had one friend- Mew, a human she'd been friends with for about a year. Mew was quirky and didn't really care what others thought of her, so she didn't mind that a lot of people didn't like her since she hung out with Frankie all the time. She and Frankie were inseparable friends, and always talked about everything with each other. Mew stayed at Frankie's house for a while when her parents got divorced. Frankie was very depressed at that point in her life, but got over that quickly with Mew and her mother's support.

When the girls were 17, Frankie developed a huge crush on Sandy, a human who was friends with Nose, a boy Mew had a crush on. Although she was shy, Mew was able to ask out Nose and he accepted. Frankie, being a fuzzball (a slang derogatory term for an anthro), had a much more difficult time. She couldn't bring herself to ask out Sandy. One day though, Frankie was surprised when Sandy asked to cut chemistry to see him. It was pretty obvious that Frankie was crushing on him, and Mew had dropped a lot of hints to him on her behalf, so she knew he knew... And she went. Once there, Sandy acted very interested in her. And she was being all shy and stuff. Then, after talking for a bit, Sandy made a move like he was about to kiss her and Frankie almost died (XD). But instead of a kiss, a 'click!' was heard and a large and uncomfortable collar was snapped around her neck. She was really freaked out at this point- especially when she began to shrink and twist weirdly, her body becoming smaller and smaller, her spine bending in a most unnatural way, and the collar shrinking with her all the way, but not her clothes. Before she knew it, she was the size of a lesser cat, staring up at a disgusted looking Sandy. He had actually been disgusted by her the whole time- an anthro in his school that had a crush on him? How gross! How EMBARRASSING! But now he had her- His dad was the head of the weapon manufacturing facility that the humans were using to develop things for the Human-Anthro war that would soon erupt on Trix. And Frankie was one of the first test subjects.

Terrified and confused, Frankie didn't know what to do- she had no idea how to move her four legs in coordination and when she tried to run, was easily captured by Sandy who began taking her to the weapons facility- to his father. But (thankfully) before they got near, the war broke out on the streets. As guns and things fired and exploded, Sandy forgot about Frankie and just ran. Left in the middle of the battlefield with no idea how to run, Frankie was even more terrified and lost.... Being nowhere near home, she ran/stumbled to the next best place- school. They might be having a lockdown or something, and that would mean she could find Mew, who she knew would help her. And well... I think I'm getting waaay too into detail here, so I'll kinda... skip details. XD She couldn't find Mew and was lost on the streets for a long time. She eventually found her mom dead, then Mew and Nose, and stayed with them for a while. None of them could find their parents, so they traveled together, and no one knew how to get off Frankie's qollar, so she stayed quad.

Eventually, they were separated and Frankie was found by anthros who had discovered a way to remove qollars and did so. They then made her fight in the anthro army, figuring she'd want revenge. So Frankie was forced. Forced to kill the people she'd grown up with, the people that she believed she truly was. Even though she WAS an anthro, and the humans had treated her badly, she still didn't want to be on the anthro's side. She felt human, and she killed humans. It killed her inside and she no longer cared if she lived or died. The war went on for 7 years, finally ending when Frankie was 24. She had killed so many humans... She hated herself so much. When it was announced that the humans had all left and everyone was celebrating, she just sat alone, dead inside. She had no friends, no family. NO family. Neon had even died in the war, even though she had never known or met her. And she never saw Mew, Nose, or Sandy again. She didn't know if they were dead or alive.

It was then that Sungera found her. The ancient feline, having failed her duties as the peacekeeper by allowing war to break out, had to find someone new to replace her. She found Frankie, and she vaguely trained her to do the duty. Frankie was so dead and careless, that she didn't really fully understand what she was getting into. She grew somewhat close to Sungera though. She was so kind and patient, and warm... The only fuzzball that Frankie ever really liked. But when Frankie was midway through her twenties, Sungera did something crazy- she told Frankie about when peacekeepers get an apprentice and need to train them, and what happened when it was the apprentice's time to take over. Then Sungera stepped outside abruptly and ran into the snow (they're at Frankie's current house on the north pole). She died almost instantly, for her destined way to die was by freezing (It's hard to explain...).

Then Frankie was all alone again. She cried and cried forever, hating Sungera. Sungera had left her behind too soon! She needed her! WHY did she leave her?! Confused and hateful, Frankie stayed alone in Sungera's mansion- now her mansion- for a very long time. Probably ten years, although she never aged past 25, being the new peacekeeper. At some point in her long life, she tried to start a war. She acted like her mother- killing mass amounts and framing people, hoping to make them hate each other as much as she hated herself, hoping they'd start a war so she would die. It never worked though, and it always just made her hate herself more and more. She was a relentless tyrant for years, then a dormant giant in others, just sleeping in her mansions for years and years. Recently, she was in a state of tyranny, experimenting with creatures that she'd let loose in the forest around her mansion. She always kept a helper "pet" and a keeper of beasts for her dangerous creatures. Tangkai was her pet and Catlash was her keeper. But even more recently, Frankie went into another dormant state and let her pets and slaves go. She just wanted to cry and be alone more. And she even tried to be nice for a while, but it was hard. She couldn't help but be mean. And then one day she walked past a room with a giant gerbil cage in it. And in the gerbil cage was a random guy she'd kidnapped from another world about a year before. She decided to chat with him for a while, although he seemed a bit dull. But eventually, she found herself letting him out of his prison to take him to Rixa City. It was a cold day, and they somehow decided to go and get soup. He ordered tomato and she ordered tortilla.

Teela is some sort of plant-animal thing, a freak of unknown origins like Phinex. She grew up in a large indoor greenhouse-like place where she lived most of her life. A bunch of bad bugs got into the greenhouse one day though, killing the forest as well as Teela’s primary food source- nectar. As a quad, Teela only had a very small mouth with a long tongue that she used for sucking up nectar. Eating all nectar made her fragrant and nice; occasional flowers sprouting from her odd neck ruff. However, she had another way of absorbing nutrients using the digestive material under her ruff. Placing detritus beneath the sheet of grassy material caused it to decay and be absorbed into her skin as nutrients. This was just as effective as eating nectar (if not more effective since she doesn’t have to do as much work), but it made her smell foul. After her home was destroyed, she couldn’t find much nectar, so she had to rely on using the stinky method.

After a while, she came to an area where her body changed- an anthro area. Now she had a larger mouth that she wasn’t sure how to use and less neck ruff area. She was starving for a while until she came across Frankie, who brought her back to health. Together, she and Frankie renovated a room into a new garden for Teela to live in. Frankie also showed her how to make drinks out of flowers using a device she made for her, so she smells nice and is never starving. Teela now lives peaceably in her room, tending to the plants there as well as in other plant areas nearby.

Victoria Acuarela's momma died when she was 6, so she felt she had to take care of her little sister, Khaiu, who was 3 years younger than her. Her dad raised her to be a lady and she was quite a pleasant little thing, except she’d make fun of people and be a brat sometimes. But she’d ALWAYS make up for it with junk food night, or whatever the heck it was called. She’s also pretty short, and was SOOPA short as a kid, earning her the nickname Tiny Torri, and guys would pick her up and toss her around because they thought it was funny. o_O; She had a subconscious grudge against guys for a long time because of that, yet she met her fiancé, uh… WTF WAS HIS NAME…? >.> Well anyways, she met that ATH. They were the STUPID kind of couple that fought/broke up all the time, but always got back together for some dumb reason. When she was 20-ish, they were engaged, but... After a fight no different from any other one, the tard just up and left, leaving her a note. She never read it because it made her too angry/sad. And, to top it all off, she was pregnant.

She was so upset after that, that she cut herself off from her family, preferring to wallow alone. One day, for a very simple reason (that I forget), something happened that made her lighten up and she decided to leave Frieu for a town north of it, to start over. She became more level-headed and planned to contact her family again soon. However, when she was very close to having her baby, she got attacked by a monster that skinned her alive, thiefed her baby and… I dunno. Made a rug out of it? ._. ANYWAYS. The area Tor was attacked at was near a dream cave linking to Frankie's, hence the monster being there randomly. The monster had dragged her back to the Primoris side of the cave before uh, taking what it wanted. Thus, Tor was quickly discovered by this jittery, weird dude named Tetzyl, who is somewhat Frankenstein-ish. Tetzyl took her back to his room or whatever and gave her her oh so beautiful green skin of ewiness as well as some FABULOUS stitching. Despite training, he was still kinda noobish, hence the crappiness of the stitches which left massive scarring. He also be’d nasty and stuff to her, and then she finally got away from all the freaks and pervs and lived in Frankie’s place, where she was a psycho that had delusions about killing people and cried all the time. In other words, Tor was never the same after that and went nuts. The loss of pretty much everything that made her a person, save a single eye and a patch of fur on her face wasn't the best experience ever. She didn't really remember the monster since she fainted so quickly from blood loss, but vividly remembered Tetzyl, and hated his guts, blaming him for everything in her insanity.

Not long after her arrival, she attacked Teela. However, upon realizing she was female, Tor let Teela go- she only likes attacking the dudes. Teela was like wtf, and left her alone 'cause dude, what a weirdo. Also, what's up with the haunted garden and all the poison crap? It was like... She was trying to be the exact opposite of her. A rival... KISMESI- *shot* No. However, they did have a rivalry for quite a while until Tor finally changed. More on that later.

Tor also became extremely unnerved by children because of her loss and developed extreme antisocial tendancies, especially obsessed with the idea of poisoning people. She threatened to poison just about everyone she saw, though rarely went through with it. She kept vials of poison and poisonous flowers in her room, which was also cluttered with mold, stacks of papers with scribbled nonsense, and her pet, Cyanide. She came across the creature randomly in Frankie's place and decided she liked it because it scared people, especially children, away. Not that there were many children there. Except that kid who collected kitties and was always dressed up in such an abundance of garb she couldn't even tell what he was. He gave her chills whenever he was around though.

After Tetzyl fixed up Tor, he went back to where he found her to see if there were any clues as to who she was. He found a sealed envelop with what appeared to be "Torid" written on it. He didn't have a chance to give it to her personally since she flipped out at the sight of him, so he slipped it under her door one day. Tor still has never read the note, but she keeps it in a drawer (it's hard to find in the mess of scribble papers, potions and such though). Whenever she comes across it, she becomes very calm, and almost sane for a brief amount of time, when she could remember what it was like before she was mutilated. But then she'd lose it and go frikkin nuts all over again until she found it once more. Tor was in this state of dissarray for a very long time, 10-12(?) years. Then she began to become somewhat sadistic, poisoning people more often and such.

One day a szulach randomly decided to appear on the premises (or didn't, rather) and Tor discovered that she liked to pwn him. Randomly. She put a qollar on him at one point and tried to make him her goat. Thing. Pet. I dunno. I don’t even remember how the crap he escaped. Also around this time Frankie, who payed attention to Tor's shenanigans since she lived near her 'safe' area, decided to try an experiment on her. She got some kind of drug and slipped it into Tor’s tuna. 83 Tor’s the kind of vegetarian that eats fish btw, whatever-the-crap-it’s-called. Anyways, then Tor was kinda normal (Frankie has the sweetest drugs, yo) and like OGODSWTFISWRONGWITHME DDDD8?? But Frankie (and Teela) helped her, giving her more meds and support. They were getting along fine for a while… Until Tor mentions Horne. Shippination ensued (there was a Kit involved). But now Tor is chillin’ with the Horne in hiz crib out in the wild, yo. They be homie G yoonitz now. B3… Not really. At all. o_O But then they WERE homie G yoonits! :D And then they luffed each other and then Tor wanted a baby. owo

Tsulox was part of a gete clan that lived in a mild-temperature biome bubble on Primoris. Tsulox was always criticized and bullied for her lack of markings, as any gete would be. One day when running from her tormentors, Tsulox was ambushed at her usual escape route- a grove of rose bushes. Forced to go on, Tsuey had to improvise. Used to running into places no one else would go for shelter, she dived at the next opportunity… A valley where some sort of, well, no one knows what happened there really, but it was now strewn with toxic waste. Of course, Tsu kept running through, ignoring the pain as she trudged over broken glass that lodged into her paw pads. She hardly noticed the odd glowing stuff on the ground which seeped in through her cut paws. She finally stopped to rest underneath a bit of an old broken down building. She carefully pulled out the shards of glass and licked her wounded pads that seemed to glow a cliché green. The green didn’t leave her paws as they healed in seconds before her eyes. She shivered, weirded out and feeling ill from swallowing so much.

She returned home later with one spot on her leg where a shard of glass flew up and hit her- one green spot. A marking! Oddly, people noticed this small marking and vaguely seemed satiated about her finally getting a marking. She returned to the wasteland later and carved markings, painfully, into her body, dropping the stinging green fluid into the open wounds. Having not eaten in a long time, Tsu ate more of the green crap. It had made her feel a bit sick the first time she ate it, but it didn’t have a lasting effect, so why not? It made her horribly sick this time, but the next day, she felt like she had all the energy in the world and her wounds had healed. She felt a little different too-= weird. Invincible. She ran back home and challenged her previous tormentors on a power rush. She mauled one of them, but the others pounced on her and took her down.

Angered by her defeat, Tsu returned to the wasteland and consumed as much green as she could, plowing through the pain. However, she was met with another problem- eating so much of it was too much for her body and it rejected the stuff by making her vomit. Tsu scoured the wastelands for something to solve this problem and came across another broken down building with a cabinet. Littered around the area were even more shards of glass, but also some functional glass instruments: syringes. Tsu inspected the device and, upon discovering its use, took advantage of it. She injected green into herself until she was shaking. Staring as her reflection in a large shard of glass, Tsu remembered how painful it was when she made the markings under her left eye. It was so painful that she had passed out doing her right eye, which was incomplete- only one line. Numbed by the amount of pain she was in, Tsu lifted a broken piece of glass beneath her eye and started to carve the second line next to her eye. She nearly finished the mark when a violent tremor shot through her body, causing her to jerk the shard sharply into her eye. She screamed and sloppily tore the chunk out, but her damaged eye didn’t heal like the other parts of her body. It expanded and turned green, a thick catalyst forming over it.

Psycho with pain and rage at this point, Tsu ran back to her clan and began slaughtering everyone relentlessly. The screams and moans of the dying echoed in her head days after the last person died… She liked it. She loved it. She wanted more of it. After the land was exterminated, she began wandering past the wasteland into the forest, eventually coming across Frankie’s mansion. She enjoyed exploring the weird place, torturing and killing people she came across. Sometimes she wouldn’t kill people if they would just scream for her… Not right away, anyway. It was almost impossible to oppose her- whatever the green was, it imbued her with a frightening amount of power.

One day, however, she came across a huge adversary that slashed and bashed her so much that she began leaking the green fluid. The adversary left her body after it supposed she died, deeming it too infected to eat. When she awoke, she couldn’t remember anything other than her name. She wandered Frankie’s house with no goal now, other than to eat, sleep, and carry on. Eventually, she became very lonely and sought companionship, but everyone always avoided her. Screaming makes her fur stand on end, but in a sort of excited way- she does not know why.

Catlash was a randomly violent child (and is still a violent adult) and was suspected to have mental impairments like her mother. She is a bit odd looking for a gete, lanky rather than sturdy, a whiplike tail rather than a bludgeoning one, and fluffs in the oddest places. Her looks and mannerisms didn’t exactly make her a popular kid, so she only hung out with her brother, Dart. He was fiercely protective of her, but was unable to foresee the thing that eventually separated them. Some anthros took her while she was still young for a ship cat to nom the mice on their boat. The quad/anthro barrier was not breached, so she stayed quad and, since she looked weird and acted feral, they never suspected she was anything but a weird cat. When out at sea, the boat was torn up in a storm up north and pretty much everyone died. Cat would have drowned if a sea serpent/dragon thing hadn’t saved her. It took her to Frankie’s mansion on Primoris and let her off safely. She wandered aimlessly in the mansion for a while, until Frankie discovered her and made her the creature keeper for some reason I don’t know.

Iviore was an experiment of Frankie’s – a rabius in volt’s clothing. Frankie found some “willing” rabisu parents to raise her, as she wanted to make sure Ivi also had a proper upbringing for her species. Ivi had about as normal a childhood as a freak like her could have, with parents that thought she was weird. They ditched her later, so she wandered Frankie’s place with no real purpose for a while. It was just as well though, seeing that she wouldn’t have a place in bisu society anyway, being a freaaaak and all. Frankie assigned her to be a cave guard, which Frankie neither enjoyed, nor hated; it was just a job. She gets along well enough with other people, but feels innately superior due to her species (despite how she looks). It’s hard to tell wtf a sentient species is at Frankie’s, so Ivi often went to Ciu to get her meals. Frankie disapproved a bit, and shoved various sentient creatures at her instead. Iviore nommed them, but then decided it might be a good idea to keep one and to use as a renewable food source. She slapped a quollar on the poor fellow and claims he’s her pet in most situations, as most don’t know that she’s actually a rabisu. And yeah, poor Ferero. He's an unfortunate little dude.

Sungera Esmeralia is the clone of Sungera, Frankie’s mentor. Frankie has noooo idea wtf she came from or how she was made, but she did test her DNA and it was a match. ‘Cause Frankie keeps Sun’s DNA lying around, apparently. Having been rather attached to the original Sun, Frankie felt very protective of this clone and made sure Sun lived as comfortably as possible, providing her a room in a safe area near a library. She knew that her mentor loved to read and was happy to see that this Sun did too. Sungera spends a lot of time in the library, reading about obscure things and studying lesser magic. However, unlike the original Sun, she wasn’t quite so benevolent. Her night shift consists of bashing people in the head and dragging them to a life of horrible work on Emo Island. She’s kind of, uh, yeah. ‘Cause it’s not like she even needs a job, seeing that she has a free home at Frankie’s. Her partner at work is Lev and they’re… TORTURE BUDDIES! 8D

Phinex is, uh… something. He’s either a horrible breeding failure or a horrible experiment failure. Either way, no one has any idea wtf he is. He was raised by the creature keeper before Catlash, but wandered off during his teens ‘cause he didn’t care about that guarding-the-entrance-to-Hell crap. He’s since claimed a room for himself in the safe area where he terrorizes the locals with his silliness. He’s a peppy dude that loves messing with and playing pranks on people. Everyone sort of kind of hates him, but puts up with him and his stupid nicknames he assigns. He’s in love with Teela and constantly fails to woo her ‘cause he’s such a noob.

Leon is an averagely average Kaburn ermite. Random poofing made him not-so-average, as not many ermites visit the north pole (or wherever that room thing is). Pretty much that RP is needed to write anything extensive on him, SO. >o>

Susan was on vacation, orbiting their planet in one of the various stations where people went to be closer to space. It was an average, pleasant vacation until something very odd happened- the station was evacuated due to a large orange mass coming tantalizingly close to the vessel. Most of the escape pods got away safely, but Susan’s was sucked up by the orange mass. It crashed on the planet within the mass, landing in a frigid environment. Somehow, the air ended up being breathable and the survivors of the crash tentatively explored the area. They were in a sort of pine forest and there was… an odd silence to the land other than the noises of the people.

The ‘peace’ wouldn’t last though, as a band of collectors swept through the people, snatching up a couple of them before dashing back to base. Susan was the only one snatched in her collector, so she became separated from everyone else. The collector deposited her, cage and all, onto a conveyor which led to a white room. She stayed here for a long time, fed and taken care of by yeebos. After a while, they randomly stopped coming and she gave up hope of living, when a red thing came to her and let her out, but with a catch- she had to befriend some dude.

Benjamin was an average murx from Ciu, working an average sorta-crappy job, until he got involuntarily dragged to Primoris. He fell prey to Iviore back when she still used the city as a hunting ground. Unlike the usual prey, he was able to catch her off guard and escape when he woke up in the dream cave as she was dragging him back. This never happened (or if it did, the prey were very disoriented and confused by the dream dust), so Ivi didn’t expect the tubby dude to shoot off into the distance abruptly. She was rather dumbfounded and amused, so she didn’t go after him, even though she could have easily recaptured him. Confused as heck at the freakiness of the place and totally lost, Ben just wandered about for a while until he found a relatively safe place. Others in the area have since become aware of his presence and welcomed him to their freaky community. He eventually even became acquaintances with Ivi since he never actually saw her in the dark cave and certainly didn’t know of her original intentions. She showed him the dream cave and how to get back, but he decided to stay. After all, free rent, no crappy job, no real need to be social = AWESOME. He could now hoard beautiful shinies away from the eyes of everyone else. Omg gtfo Phin, HATECHUUU. >:C

Tetzyl is a torzek that works at the science facilities on Emo Island. Dunno whether he was born in Ciu or Primoris, or why he’s sadistic. His contributions to society include sewing Tor back together and getting Zy horribly high on some drug that… Well, who knows or care what it’s for. For all we know, he could have done that to Zy just for the lulz.

Taco is an ermite born and raised in Ciu. His parents came from Kaburn a bit before the lockdown. They raised their son with ermite ideals, though they also encouraged him to try new things and integrate into society. Ermites weren’t exactly loved around the world and his parents realized this, so when peer influences brought out a weird, bubbly side to him, they didn’t interfere, though it was very wtf-ish for them. He moved out when young and worked various jobs until somehow getting to Frankie’s, perhaps by following a weird murx toting some diamonds off into a weird cave. The cave was really flipping weird; he was like on a constant trip while walking through it, but somehow came out the other side. And omg, what an awesome and weird place to discover! He found a place and stayed there for a bit before going back home. He eventually found the place again and started using it to store the product of his… ah, habit. It was more secure in that creepy place and even if anyone found his stash, he doubted they’d care.

Aldwin was torn from his mother before he was able to be born normally, but he survived. The monster that skinned the mother took the baby to its master as a gift. Catlash didn’t really know what to do with a baby, but she tried her best to help it, seeing that it was a gete- kin! She went to Frankie who showed her how to take care of it better. The child, who Teela named Aldwin, would come to have many ‘parents’ since everyone in that area raised him a bit. Now 10 (ish), he lives in his own room and collects kitties. Because he likes them. He’s pretty hyper, demanding, and a rather bit spoiled, so he pouts when things don’t go his way. He’s been getting a bit less whiny though as various ‘parents’ try to straighten him out.

Shukam is a weird creature… No one really knows what he is or where he came from. He lives away from most of the others at Frankie’s, constantly trying to make a new form of people. These people he’s trying to make will have taint in place of their essence, but still maintain a life force. So far he hasn’t had much luck, but he’s relentless in his experimentation and subjects are so plentiful.

Javelin grew up in a quad area near Dandelo, but they moved to the city when she was a bit older. She was always a pudgy little kid, but it was cute, dangit. Also, she didn’t care. But OMG did her sister CARE. She cared so much that she convinced Jav that she needed to freak out about it and BE THIN BECAUSE OMG WHY ELSE WOULD YOU LIVE. So Jav became anorexic, bulimic, and stuff. She’s naturally a bit pudgy, so it was hard to keep up her nasty (er, I mean, ‘pretty’) thinness. She has rather crap self esteem, but tries not to let anyone else know. It’s hard though, ‘cause she’s so loud and complainy. In high school, she accidentally put someone in the hospital by javelin’ing them through the neck in gym class, ‘cause she’s dumbz and was REALLY TIRED THAT DAY. And that’s how she earned her nickname. Presently, Jav lives in the city, near her little brother, and works as a waitress.

Jian Crow Modori came from a land across the sea that consists of only his species (whatever it is). The land consists entirely of warriors- not all doks or anything, just normal weapons mostly. Everyone there must always carry their weapons in case they are challenged to a duel. The initiator of the duel must set the stakes and something else I don’t know. Jian got a crap weapon, so he wasn’t able to defend himself. He would have lost something, uh, very, er, important if he stayed home. The punishment for refusing or running out on a duel was bad, but. He ran out on one and fled the country with his crap weapon. He now lives in Dandelo, living rather happily, if not nervous as heck. LITTLE DOES HE KNOW.

Mine is a young rich douche that constantly indulges himself with stuff. So much stuff. And ladies. Recently, however, his parents decided they needed to join their family with some other rich family and guess what? :D Marriage time for you, Miney! FFFFUUUU- Now comes with an emo past, lol 8B *rolls on him*

Eku is a very sweet bubbly little girl. She likes making everyone’s day, cooking (FISH), fishing (MORE FISH), and hunting (... birds, usually). She likes fresh meat very much and has been known to knock out people with her weapon and eat them. … Pfhaha! You don’t actually believe that, do you? She likes FISH!

Ziegen came from a nearby wooded area where he lived for quite a while with others of his kind. He wanted to be an anthropologist though, studying various types of cultures, so he’s doing a study on Dandelo for a few years. He’s very peppy and in your face; very annoying in this culture, really.

Nieve always knew that he was loved, his parents made sure of that. The family of three lived in a small house in the suburbs near L’Nana City. Both of his parents worked a lot, but committed as much time as they could manage to spending time with their child. He grew up with very few possessions, but it didn’t matter to him. He was raised to be very nonmaterialistic. Only his family parents to him, and only he mattered to his parents. A sweet, loving little family… But there were odd bits to it. He was never allowed to leave the house, and when his parents left home, they always looked different from how they looked when they were at home. At home, they looked like him- long pointed faces, mantis-like forelimbs, and bug-like eyes. However, they would always change to that peculiar alternate form before they left- more canine-like features replaced the insect ones. Nieve didn’t know anything but this, so he presumed it was a normal thing. Maybe he would be allowed to go where they went and change often as well when he was old enough.

And indeed, when he was 10, he changed. He was given a little capsule and instructed to swallow it. This must always be done before leaving the house. He clearly remembered his father’s words. After a while, his insect features were replaced and he looked like his parents. He was very proud the first time, taking it as a passage into adulthood. He also was able to leave the house finally! And he did, on a few occasions with his parents. It was always an adventure to go out and see different people and things, to communicate with people other than his parents. There was just so much. And not enough time to grasp it all.

Days had passed and they his parents hadn’t returned home yet. This was a break from the routine he had grown so used to, and 13 year old Nieve was very unsettled by this. On the fifth day, he figured it was time to do what his parents told him to if they ever vanished for too long. He opened the chest that served as the base of their kitchen table. He took his time looking through the treasures inside and reading the notes his parents had left him. They had hoped he would be older at least before this happened; he might have able to understand better. But alas, timing. They only hoped in their last moments that he would abide by the instructions they left him and be able to live safely, happily.

Aside from the notes, there were books, clothes, a backpack, and bottles of the pills. The first note was very brief and provided quick instructions in case he needed to leave immediately. However, Nieve didn’t sense any sort of urgency, so he took the time to read the second note as well. It instructed him to pack as much as he could, the pills being the most important thing. He must never be in the presence of anyone without the alternate form. He mustn’t trust anyone except for the single contact they had left. And he must go to that contact immediately after packing up and changing form.

Years later… STUFF HAPPENS. *not writing the whole thing ‘cause* >:O

someone else with a sad past, go figure

Kukri rents an apartment that is pretty much just a garden. Either that, or a jungle- there are plants all over the flipping place; mostly fruit, but also some other things. She frequently visits the flower shop and is probably friends/acquaintances with Moet. :D Maybe supplies shop with flowers occasionally? >:?

Axe is an anti-map warrior, raised by anti-map parents, from a land farther “south.” She set up residence in Dandelo recently due to suspicions about mappers about. She’ll be on duty to kick some mapper arse. >:[

Ruido is a sickly dude, and has been as much since he was a kid. He’s fragile, like a DAINTY LITTLE FL- STFU D8< Anyway. He hates being called a DAINTY LITTLE FLOWER or anything similar and will at least try to beat the crap out of you. He’d fail like, every time though. That is, until a few years ago when he got his OSSIM WEAPON. Though it’s a warrior weapon, it’s a “blank” and isn’t coded to fight against mappers like usual weapons. Ruido can use his weapon to bash people with, but it also sustains his vitals. He probably couldn’t even walk without it. It’s also detachable like the ossim thing it is. Even when detached, it’s still connected to him, so you can’t just like, rip out his plug, lulz. Not that it’d come out just by anyone tugging it though- it’s attached as securely as an actual limb would be (if not stronger), and only comes out on command.

Malvador is a mapper and contributes to the map society by providing anti-weapons, things like warrior weapons, but blank slates. Instead of fighting against maps, they are blank, like children, and must be taught. Malv himself is a rather bland individual. He doesn’t like you. Or you. And especially you. >:[

Simon is Javelin’s little brother. He’s hyper and acts stupid sometimes, but cuts it out if he’s annoying anyone. When he’s not being so MANLY, he be’s even MANLIER by roleplaying his MANLY MAN character MORTIKUS THE DRAGON. Simon takes RP’ing VERY SERIOUSLY and would rather die than act out of character while in outfit. He’s gone so far as to paint an ‘exit’ in his apartment bathroom, where he says Mortikus goes when he’s actually going in the bathroom to take off the outfit. Obsessed? Pft, no. What’s wrong with being really into it? >:[

Weirdoooo

Thieffff

Sad guyyyy

Matiq loves to wear things that show off her figure. She aims for cute over slutty looking, but usually gives off the unwanted vibe. Her favorite things to wear are low cut shirts/tanks and short skirts; she has tons of them. Despite that, she isn't as fond of shoes as the average clothes-crazy girl; she only has a few pairs. Her favorite are her high heel boots which she almost always wears. She loves to accessorize as well and is usually adorned with many bracelets, necklaces, and tail accessories. She has a tail wrap with two dangling red jewels that she *never* takes off. Otherwise, her outfit is always changing, along with her hair. Sometimes it's a mohawk, sometimes with extensions, sometimes in a small ponytail, sometimes this way, sometimes that way... Probably never curly though.

Matiq is extremely flirtatious, but also rather shallow- she goes for the hotties over the good personality. Silly Tiq. She also loves to be in the presence of people, especially at parties. She can't stand quiet or lonely places for very long; it drives her insane. She also hates to be without a boyfriend or some form of companionship. Unfortunately, she's horrible at commitment and tends to go through a sad amount of boyfriends. She really does try to make the relationship work, but she's usually too clingy and dependent, which gets on a guy's nerves after a while.

Matiq's past was just averagely average. Not everyone has an uber special, unordinary past. Boring people actually exist, omg. That being said, Matiq isn't boring, just nothing OMGsome worth mentioning happened, so. Yeah. :B

Fritz is a very jumpy and nervous little fellow. His super meek attitude is the result of being raised as a slave where he wasn't allowed to do a darn thing without first being granted permission. Though he's been away from his masters for over a year now, he still can't help but retain that personality. He shys away from everyone; not wanting to do something wrong or be ordered around. He also finds it hard to not eat without first being given permission, so he is frightfully thin. He eats only the bare minimum to survive, and still can't help but feel bad about it. When in the presence of people, he thanks his small size, as he can skirt around people without them noticing in large crowds. If, by horrible chance, he must converse, he's extremely quiet and it would be a pretty one-sided conversation.

Fritz's birthplace is unknown, but since he is a gatimo, it was theorized that he is from Spirchet. When still rather young, he was somehow separated from his parents and ended up washing up on the shores of Caragia. Caragia is a land filled with people who practice higher magic, and unfortunately, most Caragians were very unaccepting of species besides their own, the lynx. Fritz's small form was found by a group of Caragian children who, intrigued by the strange and foreign kid, greeted the intruder "properly." Being kids, they weren't as skilled in their magic just yet, so they messed up quite a bit.

After what seemed to be an endless amount of torment, the kids broke up suddenly. The frail gatimo finally opened his eyes to look around, hoping they had simply lost interest, to find one of them staring down at him. He flinched fearfully, but the lynx didn't curse him again. Instead he crouched down and pat his shoulder, mumbling something softly. The kid, who he later learned was called Lewis, scooped him up and brought him home, begging his parents to let him keep Fritz, as if he were a stray puppy he found. Though they never planned on having such a thing, slaves of other species weren't all that uncommon on Caragia, so they let their son keep Fritz. They also tried to fix the hexes cast on Fritz, but weren't able to remove all of them- this is why he has so many ailments such as the hyperactive pores, smoking mouth/paws, and gender switching. He also couldn't remember anything before washing up on shore, though they're not certain whether that's from the hexes, trauma, a head injury, or a combination of those. Regardless of his quirks, Lewis loved his new "pet" and named him Fritz since he couldn't remember his own name. As they grew up together, Lewis began treating him more like a brother than a pet, though his parents didn't feel the same way at all. The odd mix of brotherly affection with strict orderliness made Fritz a somewhat confused little guy, but also very subordinate. He wasn't allowed to do much of anything unless someone told him he could. Unless, of course, he was with Lewis, who encouraged him to be himself. Lewis even went as far to teach him lesser magic, which was super forbidden for many reasons (if it being called "lesser" magic wasn't explanation enough). Lesser magic is a lot more complicated, even for the simplest of spells, but Lewis didn't want Fritz to feel left out. Over the years, Fritz became very skilled in healing magic, and still is.

When anthro, he wears shirts that are way to big for him (sometimes they hang nearly down to his knees). He's extremely embarrassed by his smokey hands, so he usually wears a pair of black gloves. He has far worse ailments though, including the inability to stick with one gender. Though I usually refer to him as "he", he actually shifts between male and female randomly. Not by choice at all; he hates it. For this reason, he isn't really sure which gender he should go for, so he'd go for either. Not that he's looking or anything. SO EMBARRASSING.

Fritz's fur is mucky green and unusually clumpy, even for a gatimo. His teal hair is afflicted in a similar fashion, sticking out in great chunks (natural hair spray, much?). His ears are unnatural for a gatimo; they are bi-colored blue and light blue in a similar pattern to a phytel's. He also has dark blue "eyeshadow" above his eyes. There are small dots on his knuckles, each with a tiny pore that excretes a faint orangey brown smoke occasionally (usually when he's nervous... so always pretty much). The same smoke emits from his mouth, but he's better at controlling it. And no, it isn't smelly or anything. Completely odorless in fact; though that doesn't mean he's incapable of having stinky breath. *hides onions from him*

Cheeremo was born into an average dragon family. Since they were able to wiggle, her siblings tried to kill her and she returned the favor. Of seven eggs, only she and two brothers made it to de-nesting age. Once mom booted them out, their rivalry turned to kinship- they traveled together, hunted together, and looked out for each other.

Some years later, a rogue dragon about their age killed one of the brothers while he was solo hunting. Chere was outraged and wanted to avenge her brother, but the new dragon was a smooth talkin' punk and convinced her remaining brother that he should join their group. She didn't like it, but Chere's older brother always made the decisions, and so the killer took her little brother's place in the group. She always did wonder how such a scrawny dragon could have taken out her brother though...

More time passed and Chere generally accepted the new guy into the group, though she didn't like him. Though now they had come of age, the time where dragons went separate ways from their siblings, becoming rivals once again. The trio stuck together for a bit longer for no particular reason and chanced upon a portal to a keeper's dungeon. Since they were little, the dragons were all told of the life of a keeper's minions... Serving to kill stupid heroes and defeat rival keepers' dungeons. Cheeremo was too curios about the life she had only heard of to pass up the opportunity of trying it out, but, to her dismay, Scrawny also decided to go along. Ugh, why couldn't that moron go into a different keeper's portal so she could just kill him, already? Worse off, her brother wasn'tcoming. Always the aloof and scrutinous one, he scoffed at the size of the keeper's puny treasury and left with an unceremonious farewell.

Chere lived out the rest of her life under control of that same keeper. She was generally okay with it, but was a bit infuriated- the keeper never let her go into battle. Actually, he never even permitted her to train. After all, if she attained a higher level, she'd just want more pay! Pah! Greedy dragons. So she kept to the library as a researcher for most of her time there.

A year ago, Cheeremo was reading peaceably in the library, as always, when she heard a strange whispering. It didn't seem to be coming from anyone, but instead, it seemed as if it was coming from inside her own mind; a teensy little whisper... Join us, come with us.... Simple, melodic words, repeated over and over with bits of other tempting words here and there. In a trance, she left the library and walked slowly down the tunnels to the portal room. The voices egged her on like an invisible force dragging her towards the portal... She exited the dungeon for the first time since she came in.

It was some time later... Minutes? Hours? Days? Chere had no idea, but the whispering was gone and she was somewhere else. And she felt strange. Her body didn't feel right at all, as if it was contorted and- GACK! What the hell? Arms? Legs? FINGERS? The tall, now anthro dragon, stood up abruptly on her oddly long- and for some reason now white- legs. Not to be distracted by her strange appearance, she quickly took note of her surroundings- at the entrance of a cave with purple stuff floating around it. Behind her were stairs, and above them were strange smells and noises- and voices. Other creatures! Angry and confused about her appearance, she rushed up the stairs (nearly falling a few times to the odd balance of this new body) and confronted the first person she saw, demanding to know why she had arms. Of course, being a tall, naked chick coming out of nowhere and barking such a stupid question in someone's face wasn't exactly the best way to introduce yourself to the first Bitian you saw. Cheeremo doesn't really care what she wears, as she doesn't really care for clothes. If she had it her way, she wouldn't wear anything, but that's unacceptable (obviously). When she first arrived to Bita, she was given some clothes that she has grown used to wearing. So, if any, she prefers those: Sweatpants, a flake hoodie, and... oddly enough for her character, a shirt with a koala on it. How cute. She also used to have a silly pastel bunny hat, but Hellion wouldn't have her wearing such a thing and gave her a hood instead, which she enjoys just as much.

Chere is usually quite stoic, not portraying much of a personality beyond a mindless soldier at first. As much would be expected though, seeing as she was raised since a small demon spawn to mindlessly serve the higher power. She would fight and kill for this power without a thought or question, and that was quite normal to life. Upon arrival to Bita, it was nearly impossible to grasp the concept of free thinking and not being required to obey a higher power's every whim. After some therapy with Quan, she started to be able to fathom this strange "thinking" thing and developed a few preferences. Chere's progress was for naught though, for when Hellion came to the treehouse, he practically reverted her back to her original state of not-thinking upon recruiting her. Chere went back to it quickly. After all, it was just so much easier to not make her own decisions.

Before Hellion came to the treehouse, Cheeremo was visiting Quan regularly for lessons in behaving like a normal person because Chere was anything but normal. Having come from Hell, she wasn't exactly up to date in mortals' etiquette. Despite not liking it, Chere has been trained to be subordinate since her memory served her, so she obeyed the first person of superiority she came into contact with which, thankfully, was Dart. He laid down the law and put her in her place, making her go to therapy with Quan (who crazily volunteered). Therapy was going decently until Hellion arrived... Then the treehouse burned down. Chere's a dragon; figure it out.

Corey came from a very wealthy family, but doesn’t like to let anyone know. When he was younger, he usually had to hang out with other rich-ish kids and they always seemed boring to him. Being rich seemed boring in general. His opposition to his status came mostly from his nanny, his primary influence when he was young up until he was a teen. Then his father tried to make more of an impression on him and raise him to think ‘rich’. His parents were new money, so they didn’t reaaaally know what they were doing, so… oops. They couldn’t have children on their own, so Corey was made in a dish, hence why he doesn’t have any siblings. Oh, if only, then he wouldn’t be pressured to pass on the bloodline. Ewww.

Corey lives in an apartment, “making it on his own” (psh, despite all the gifts he gets) and pretending to be middle class. All of his friends think he is and he doesn’t want them to know otherwise like, ever, if he can help it. It just makes him friggin’ nervous.

Thrill is from the great city of Dandelo, but lived in the treehouse for a bit, where he met his bro, Zy. The two of them often went back to the city and partied like fewls, but then Zy bailed on him like a jerk. Thrill since moved back to Dandelo (the treehouse burned down anyway) and hasn’t really seen much of Zy since. He keeps it up as a masseuse and artist, making it by okay. Still hits up the parties and occasionally visits the Silo to see old friends.

Tink was born to a lower class family that got by okay… Until his father died. Tink was only seven at the time, but his father, sick from something-or-other, had taught him early on that he needed to take care of the girls. His mother worked, but his two younger sisters definitely could not, so Tink had to get a job and work on their home. He was a bit too young for a real job, so he ended up doing a lot of house work, including baking. He ended up baking a lot and selling the stuff to support his little family. Word got out of his ossim pies and they began getting good money from his goods. It was short lived, however, as he was kidnapped when he was about 13 by some knights from Kaburn. They tried to force him to make them stuff, but he refused, demanding to be taken back to his home country. Of course, this was a no go and he was just thrown in the dungeon. There he was tortured in an attempt to make him give- his ears were cut off piece by piece until there was none of them left and his tail received similar treatment. Bits of finger were also removed, but nothing too much, as they still wanted him to be able to cook. They were getting around to removing teeth, but he was… Was he dead?

He thought he had died for a very long time, and the forest was heaven. It took a while to comprehend that he was in another land and there was no way back. This made him very depressed, as he wanted to help his family, but he also remembered what his father told him- he had to be strong. If one of his little sisters got sick or died, he must go on for the others. If something happened to mother, he must still go on. He MUST go on, because even if everything seems lost, he must remember that he, Tink, is important and he must live. And that’s what Tink did; he lived. He practiced his baking more at the treehouse, allowing everyone to have at since it seemed to be an egalitarian society at this house. Later he would find a job and cease being so charitable though. He has to put himself first, since he’s all he has now. That is, until someday he finds someone he can devote his life to and have little kits of his own. Someday.

Jessica (Lulz’s mom) was raised in the slums of Ableosis City. She and her sister, Evangeline, were cross breeds- half mow, half ermite. Her father, the ermite, was a controlling man and her mother, the mow, couldn’t really think for herself. He pressured the girls to aim towards the ermite side of their lineage and at 16, Jes made a bad decision and got pregnant. Her parents didn’t want anything to do with it, so she stayed at the father, Tarek’s, home and raised the baby, who she named Martin (Marty). She dropped out of school and got a job alongside raising the baby and helping out at home. Tarek also got a job and continued to go to school. Jes was miserable living this way as she didn’t love Tarek and his family didn’t seem to like her either. Tarek graduated high school and jumped right into college while Jes continued to be unhappy and alone. When she was 19, she met Cordell at work. She began seeing him in any spare time she could manage and they fell in love. When Jes announced she wanted to marry him Tarek was like iefohfoisdh and Tarek’s family was like *#(&$(*@#(*@*(&$_!. Jes moved in with Cordell, they got married when she was 20, and they had shared custody over Marty. When she was 21, the twins (Lis and Lulzento) were born. When she was 23, Tarek vanished with Marty and was never heard from again somehow. Jes was heartbroken, but Cordell helped her through.

Cordell’s family likes Jes well enough, and they keep in touch with his parents and brothers. Throughout Lis and Lulzento’s childhood, they hung out with Uncle Josh’s family the most. Thomas and Lis were BFF-ish, and Beth and Tina were BFF-ish. Jes did not keep in touch with her parents at all, but did with her sister and her family.

Lis and Lulzento weren’t really bad, but they got involved with the wrong people in their teen years. They both were good students in school, but outside school, Lis dipped in illegal activity. Lis was the older and more dominant twin, so Lulzento mimicked her. They were suddenly submerged into a life of drugs, sex, and vandalism, though Lis stayed away from the boys, so Lulzento did too. Lulzento never really did any of the bad things, she was just there. The only bad thing she did was vandalism, and she was good at it. Well… Her graffiti was gorgeous, but on the downside, she got caught a lot. Their mother had to pick them up from the police station quite often and it was breaking her heart all over again. Lis, being the stronger one, was able to shake the habit and straighten out, but Lulzento still lingered in the field a while longer. After being arrested multiple times for vandalism, she was sent to rehab when she was 17. She was released after six months and, with her family’s support, never went back to anything illegal again. She was kind of scarred by what happened in rehab and started to question her sexuality. By this time, Lis revealed why she never got into the boys by introducing the family to her girlfriend. Lulzento was never sure of herself after that. After all, they were twins, so…

As the years went by, Lulzento became less focused on this, and more focused on her work, which made her happy. While Lis fell in her father’s footsteps as an electrician, Lulzento was an artist. She owned a successful (and profitable) pet site, did illustrations for kid’s books, and did some freelance art on the side.

Lulzento can't stand to go anywhere in public unless she looks nice. She loves to wear girly and cute things. Usually she'll wear dresses or skirts- she hasn't worn pants in a long time. She's careful about what she wears though- as said before, she wants to look nice, not slutty or something. She rarely wears any accessories though, just long socks (which are usually colorful). She will never go anywhere unless she is covering her natural foot markings with socks or boots (they are considered undesirable by mows).

Some time in December, Dartanion was kicked out of the treehouse for disobeying an order. In his defense, the order was to NOT rescue someone who was being tortured, so he couldn't resist. The said person was Enya, who was also banished from the treehouse for this. For most of December, he and Enya lived out on the streets with no home and no money, but Dart did his best to keep her warm and fed. Sometime around the 25th, Dart ran into Saki who offered to let them stay in her apartment with her and her brother. He stayed there with Enya for a bit, but it was really crampt in the small apartment so Dart left Enya there and went back on the streets of Bridgeton where he continued to live a pointless life, unable to find a job. Though life was rather suck, he found comfort knowing that Enya would be safe living with Saki and Rylz. He couldn't return to his home on Caseatrix since he needed help from someone living at the treehouse to do so, so there wasn't much he could do besides get by.

Dartanion was born into the humblest and most unlikely setting for someone who was to one day be a warrior: a den in a quad area of Nucoa. His mother, Rim, was also a white gete, but she was much more mangy and "unattractive" by gete standards. Not only that, but she was also mentally impaired. She acted like a feral animal half the time and was otherwise generally dull. Dart's father, Adrien, claims she wasn't always like this, but it was his word against most other getes that lived in the community. Because of his mother's status and the fact that there was a lesser species very similar to a gete, Dart was constantly ridiculed for having an "animal" as a mother.

Due to this, Dart didn't have any friends when he was very young, so he played by himself. Not being exposed to the normal games other quad getes played, Dart would make up his own. He liked to wander in the thick forest in which he was born, observing and experimenting with the plants and animals he found there. He'd often wander out very far, even into areas with anthros. He was thrilled and shocked when he saw his first anthro, walking on two feet and using their front limbs to do various things. The plants and animals of the forest suddenly became boring and ordinary- he just wanted to watch these strange bipedal people. He was shy of other sentient people since the ones back home would tease him, so he kept out of sight, only observing. He was so intrigued by them- their upright stature was the coolest freaking thing in the world. He wanted to stand up like that... So he practiced. Like Meowth in that one episode about his past (lololo), he gradually taught himself how to balance on his pack paws. It was tricky to master, but his huge gete tail was great for balancing. That wasn't enough though- he also wanted to use his front limbs like they did. Just thinking of all the stuff he could carry opposed to a normal gete who could only use his mouth to carry stuff make Dart burst with excitement (hey, he was a kid; they're easily excited by things xD). It was a whole new adventure learning to balance while holding things, but he got this skill accomplished over time too. He wasn't aware that his strangely long toes were different from anyone elses', but the difference was extremely helpful, especially when he needed to grip things like sticks. Sticks were his favorite thing by the way- he liked to pick them up, swing them around, hit things with them, and generally be a chaotic little child. Dart kept his bipedal training a secret for the most part, but one day he decided to show his parents, hoping to impress them with his feats. His mom actually seemed amused by it, but it made his father worried. He told Dart to keep his oddity to himself, not wanting the community to think he was weirder than what they already thought. Dart promised his father that he wouldn't, but was always extremely disheartened that his dad didn't approve.

When Dart was three years old, his mother disappeared from home. She had left with no warning and left nothing behind indicating where she might have gone. Dart's father searched for her restlessly, but there was no sign of her. His dad became ill with worry, muttering about her being dead, murdered, or starving out on her own. Three weeks went by perilously slow until, miraculously, Dart's dad found his mother out in the forest, wandering aimlessly. She was disheveled as ever- fur matted, covered in muck and burrs, and eyes eerily glassy. Dart's father nurtured her back to health, not letting her out of his sight for a moment. However, he became ill-hearted when he discovered that Dart was going to have a sister, but it wasn't his.

A few months later, Dart's half sister, Catlash, was born. His father was very disinterested in her, for obvious reasons. Dart was too young to understand his parents' behavior towards each other, but he decided not to worry about it and instead spent time doting over his little sister. She looked a lot like her mother, mangy and weird, but Dart thought it was cute. The opportunity to raise a little sister and finally have a friend was such a great pleasure to Dart. He did everything with her even before she was able to leave the den to the point where his mother would have to wallop him to give them some space for a bit. When Catlash was old enough to venture outside, Dart was always the one to accompany her. As she grew, he took her farther and farther into the forest, showing her all of the things he used to play with when he was her age. She was a bit dull which worried her father, but she was also still quite young, so Dart had hopes that she wasn't afflicted as their mother was. He went all out to teach her everything he knew and aimed for her to be more intelligent than the other kids were at her age. Unfortunately, Catlash just wasn't equipped to work in such a way and was still a bit slow for her age. Dart was extremely patient with her though, even when she went into her little "fits" as he called them: she would become rather violent for her age, shredding plants (and animals, if she could catch them) to bits and generally being a wild child. It took a while, but Dart taught her to at least respect the poor little animal's feelings. And by the by, she gradually became more learned with her devoted brother's help.

Later, his sister would be stolen and he would go searching for her. During this search, he went into anthro lands and learned about how to really be one of them. He never really went back home. Instead, he ended up traveling all the way to Fenc-Rati where he became a warrior. He thought that traveling around so much on the job would be a good way to cover ground in finding his sister- and he'd get to help people at the same time. Helping people is so awesome. Before he was deployed to Freeverse, he had been a warrior for a long time. Older now, he no longer really expected to find Cat, but he never forgot about her.

Clerf Lucemu was born into the royal family of Cirvindale, a small town near the southern border between Fenc-Rati and Kir-Kara. Though royal, she was born with “imperfections” and thus kept out of sight from the public. Two of her siblings who were weird like her were kept in the same area as her. It wasn’t as horrible as it sounds though- the small group of children had a large portion of the castle they were free to roam and, sometimes, they were allowed elsewhere (provided that they were properly covered). Clerf played with her weird siblings as well as the normal ones, which were allowed to visit occasionally. Once she was older (12-ish) she began to take note of how the others really treated her differently. Also around this age, one of the older weird kids vanished and no one told the other weird ones where he went. The other weird sibling was a rather bit older than Clerf and they didn’t have much in common, so Clerf sank into the wonderful world of the internet for most of her time.

Later, that other sibling was sent away too, but she was used to having only internet friends by then. A bit after that, the fyre outbreak happened. The volts didn’t expect it to hit their country or for it to spread as quickly as it did, and before they knew it, there were fyres on their front lawn. Luckily for them, only their border areas were in trouble though. Unluckily for the Lucemu family, Cirvindale was on the border. The castle was under siege when Clerf was poofed to freeverse by an unknown force. Not used to the outside world at all, Clerf was FREAKASCARED/SHY, but due to being used to following orders, she did as she was told while there. She was instructed to move in a small room in the treetops. This was nothing like what she was used to and the hustle bustle of people building the treehouse scared her. She holed up in the room, afraid to leave it- Scary people, scary endless forest of plantsss. She wasn’t used to being around so much vegetation and it was freakishhhh.

Clerf had long hair all of her life, but she cut it for various reasons upon coming to the treehouse. For one, there was no air conditioning and it was hot. And… The bathrooms. So small. So public! DX She nearly had a heart attack when someone knocked on the door while she was taking a long shower (it takes a while to wash all that hair :3;). Those were the initial reasons, but when it came down to actually bringing the scissors to her hair, the main reason she cut it was because it was a sign of beauty to have long hair. She knew she was treated differently because of how she looked- she was ugly, so why should she have pretty hair? Chop chop.

A bit later, a scary plant girl moved into her room and OMG SHE WAS SO ANGRY AND SCARY. ;^; Clerf was dead silent like, always though, so the SCARY LADY wasn’t as scary towards her. And luckily, that scary lady didn’t stay in the room nearly as much as she did. Not long after that, the treehouse was becoming more complete and Enya got her own room. Other people began moving in the treehouse, but Clerf didn’t really notice since the rooms were so spaced out and she hardly ever left her own room. The only people in the house she even remembers are Dart, Quan, and Tink- the first two because they’re nosy sonsa’-meeps that make a point to know everyone in the house, and Tink because he was always in the kitchen. The kitchen and bathroom were the only places Clerf went besides her room. She wasn’t curious about looking around at all and was used to being cooped up, so it worked. She was known as the "shyness ninja" around the house (probably started by Matiq) because she always found a way to get food from the kitchen and stuff without being seen by anyone.

Sebastian always wears a pair of goggles, whether they're on his head or over his eyes. They're not just for show though- Seb is nearsighted and the goggles are specially made for his prescription. His favorite pair to wear are his golden ones, though he also has dark violet and blue ones. Another thing he always wears is his long red scarf. Because scarves are awesome. He has a lot of aerodynamic armor-like clothing used in races, but he likes wearing it all the time. He pretty much always wears his custom-made tail armor in public, which covers most of the floofiness of his silly tail. He occasionally wears fingerless gloves and helmets as well, but mostly saves those for competitions. Seb's major clothing passion is... Shoes. He has a freaky huge collection of shoes, a good deal of them special or custom made. He hasn't gotten rid of any old shoes since he was in his early teens; he's really freaking... obsessed. And if anyone were to call him out for having more pairs of shoes than the average girl, he'd beat the snot out of them. So don't do that.

Sebastian Strix grew up in a very poor family with a buttload of siblings, so he didn’t get a lot of attention. His favorite thing to get as a gift were shoes because they were just so AWESOME. Omg. After he got a pair of amazing new shoes, he went to school and some punk-arse kids tried to take them from him. He got away, but had to run like heck through the woods and they got filthy. The next day, the bullies got them anyway. As he got older, he started working out, working a job, and spending any spare time he had at the comic book store. The clerk there knew he never would buy anything, but didn’t object when the poor kid came in to get his fix. Seb loved superhero comics and wanted to be one someday.

Seb ended up becoming a professional athlete (I dunno what the sports in FV are though, so…) and rather well off. He spent all his money on SHOES and costumes. When he went out to *insert sport here*, he was in full battle regalia aka costume. He probably doesn’t own any normal clothes, and thus is always walking around in costume.

Ko Tribble was an average city mow from Rascii City. He had normal parents and an older sister. He earned the nickname Zyo Ko because he made funny noises when he slept (zyo = sleepy noise, like zzz kinda), which was said so much that it became Zyoko, pronounced like zy-O-ko rather than ZY-o-ko. It pretty much became his standard name then, and later his nickname would by Zy; back to one syllable for you, Ko.

While on vacation in Tanyas, Zy's family met Gary's family. The families became very friendly, and the Tribbles made it a tradition to vacation to Tanyas once a year to visit them. The families kept in contact when they were away as well- Zy and Gary became penpal buddies. Sucia, such the proper little lady, outgrew playing rough with the two boys very quickly and would instead hang out with the parents. Gary and Zy formed a close bond in the meanwhile.

All was well and swell for a while, but things can never just be that happy. The boats that frequently brought people/supplies from Riria, also brought unwanted creatures from the other land... Mainly fyres and zephons (these weird little things that you can't kill except with magic; they tear out your essence and eat it. Kinda like a heartless but not? XD Ath made them up a long time ago). When Zy was 8-ish or so, the boys were out playing in the woods and my oh my, little Zy came across a fyre. He was probably all like "8DDD OMG, GARYGARYGARY LOOKLOOK A FIRE THINGIE *tries to catch*" ... but, yanno. D: It possessed him. He immediately showed symptoms, though it seemed like he was just sick. He was bedridden for a few weeks, worrying everyone while internally the fyre was beating his essence to smithereens, eventually destroying it. As soon as it was destroyed, Zy seemed to be getting better, though everyone was extremely concerned that his green eyes had become red so suddenly. He insisted he was fine though, because he was.... Or at least, the fyre which now had a hold of the body was. Children's essences are weak, and easily killed compared to adults', whose essences are firmly in tact and are extremely hard to remove (which makes possession trickier in them). But in children, once their essence is destroyed, the fyre takes its place and essentially becomes the person. There were many practices to prevent and deal with this in Riria, but Spirchet people didn't really know about it, so no one really knew what happened. So little fyre, aka "Zyoko we all know and love" got away with it and now had a whole life to live, instead of however long fyres live on their own. By default, fyres don't really have emotion, but they develop certain things when they possess people. At first they seem sick/listless, then get back to "normal," but secretly plan to harm anyone around them. 'Cause that's just what fyres do.

And so, now an evil little punk, fyre-Zy set out to harm the person he was around the most at the time- that Gary guy. What's a better hurt than betrayal, after all? Zy lured Gary far from their parents where he knew zephons were lurking and... that was the end of Gary's essence. Or so it seemed, rather. After being torn out, the essence somehow escaped and drifted off, but that's a different story. Even though no one ever realized Zy did this on purpose, the bonds between the families became tense and they started visiting less and less. Zy was generally a jerkface after that. Eventually they stopped visiting Tanyas, so he couldn't do anything nasty involving demon-based things, so he stuck to littler things, like indirectly making his family and other people around him miserable. Possessed people are also somewhat super-charged in strength, so it wasn't hard for him to become the bully in school. He was just a flat out butthead for a long time until he was about 17 or so.

Possessed children were never left possessed for long in Riria. The fyre was either exorcised, leaving the child colorless like Gary became or the child was disposed of (in certain parts of the land). As such, neither fyres nor people knew the long term effects of being possessed. It's not a proven fact, as this is only a single case, but in the case of Zyoko, the fyre gradually began to... Change. Over time, it began losing its initial generic evilness and somehow almost became a substitute for an essence. By the time Zy was 19 or something, he was basically who he is now- a pretty nice guy, though he wasn't freakishly shy/emo like he is now. He was still kind of strong by the default, but even that began wearing off. Soon he started going in the *opposite* direction of what a fyre was supposed to do- he got wussier, emotionally more than anything. And now, of course, the Zy we REALLY all know and love: Mr. Emo Wussypants who doesn't even understand his own emotions. Poor little emobucket. Another thing about fyres is that, if they live long enough, they eventually turn into taint. Being a possessed person, this process was held off in Zy... For longer than usual, anyway. Now, the process finally seems to have caught up with him, as the fyre- his essence substitute- slowly tries to turn into taint. Without an essence (or any kind of substitute) a person isn't a person. They're nothing, an empty shell like a person that got soul-sucked by a dementor. And on top of that, taint cannot coexist with a lifeforce, meaning that if the fyre turns to taint, Zy will die on top of losing his essence. AND not only that, but the result of all of this will be a body with taint aka a bloodless. Zy would be totally dead- no essence for the afterlife even- and his corpse would become a murderous beast. Now that's a reason to be emo.

Kay is extremely skinny, but not unhealthy; his legs are borderline "stabby feet" but not quite. His short fur is black all over except above his nose, inside his ears, on his underbelly (and legs), and on a strip down his tail. His strangest features (aside from his tail) are on his face- he has huge eyes with tiny black irises. They're usually wide open, which can get pretty unnerving after a while. His most odd facial feature, however, is his lack of mouth in quad. There's absolutely nothing there. This is because he does not need to eat to survive, but is instead primarily maintained by electrical energy. He can gather energy from any sort of electrical thing such as lightening, electromagnetic fields, that outlet in your wall, ect. He can also produce minute amounts of electricity by using his body as a solar panel. Because of this, the black parts of his fur get very hot if he's not covered in sunlight. The two silver things jutting out of his tail are hollow, lightweight, metallic... something-or-others that act as an output. In other words, he's able to discharge excess electricity through them. Yup. Just like a pikachu.

When anthro, besides the obvious changes, something odd happens- he randomly has a mouth. Thus, he can speak and eat if he wants. Despite not being able to use it in quad, Kay does have a food digesting stomach, albeit a lousy one. It digests food very slowly and inefficiently which ultimately results in something very unpleasant for Kay that most of us don't even think about. He, uh, has to go to the bathroom. When relying purely on electric energy, this is not necessary. Aside from that though, he's a pretty normal anthro (besides being a freaky tall, lanky beanpole). For some reason, he feels that he needs to wear clothes that compliment his natural body color, so his attire consists of black shirt, black trenchcoat, black gloves, black pants... Yeah. He almost considered wearing some color, but immediately began to feel vulgar about it. Why he's like that, not even he knows, really. He also wears a black kerchief to cover his mouth, to make it appear as if it's still not there. No one wants to see that.

Kay is a pretty shy guy when anthro, mostly because he's not used to it. Especially the whole talking thing; it still kind of freaks him out to hear his own voice after so long. He is also nervous about how much he stands out in a bad way - being freaky tall, lanky dude with creepy as heck eyes does not help with first impressions (or second or third for that matter). He's quite a different person in quad though- he's very vocal (he can make an array of odd sounds uh... somehow) and even bold to the point that it gets him in trouble. He also freaks out if a squirrel happens to be around. He hates them inexplicably, and will hunt down and kill them on sight.

Quandary’s tail-lava is constantly flowing, though it has a thin layer of solidified lava, similar to our thin layer of skin. If her tail were to be cut, lava would seep out and quickly "clot." Her tail also flames a bit, the amount depending on her mood. Usually there are just a few licks of flame peaking up around the tail, but if she exerts enough energy, the flame can cover her entire tail, even enveloping half her body. The flame, usually benign to the touch, will become hot enough to incinerate things... Including her clothes. Which wouldn't be good. :D; No matter how hot her tail gets, her body is never harmed by the heat (though she might get tired; it burns up energy stores). Quan sports average red-orange fur and a dark red stripe around her waist. The only mark on her eye is a small vertical oval behind her unusually bright green eyes. Her inner ears are golden on the top and dark red on the bottom. Her shoulder-length hair is the same golden color. She's a bit chubby, but happily so. She's proud of the figure she has and is pretty resilient to negative taunts about it.

Quan values comfort and is a little clueless about fashion, so she sort of gave up on having a decent wardrobe. Her clothing choices tend to be more boyish (hey, it's comfortable!) even when she tries to be feminine. Dangit. She's not really into accessories and just keeps to the minimum.

Quan loves to help people and is a self proclaimed therapist (which you don’t need a degree for anyway, so it works). She’s always there for anyone that needs to talk about problems or just needs someone to hang out with. For more sensitive patients (… Clerf) she made an email/IM username for indirect contact, though she still tries to persuade Clerf into in-person meetings. She’s BFF with Corey, Matiq, and Gir.

Stabby Legs is stuck in quad form no matter what she does or where she goes. Her signature feature is her "stabby legs" which end in point sharp enough that she can easily pierce things with them. Because of this, walking on certain surfaces can be very annoying. Her back-arms can change in size as Stabby pleases to do so, though it takes a while. She usually keeps them as small as possible (about two inches in diameter) to minimize startling people, though they can get absolutely massive- large enough to lift her whole body off the ground. However, she usually just uses them to sew (since she can't with her stabby legs).

Stabby's past is a haze to her- she doesn't remember anything before arriving to the treehouse, which she stumbled upon out of chance after mindlessly wandering through the forest for goodness knows how long. She was slow for a few days, but gradually retained general knowledge and was able to convey that she, indeed, was not a crazy freak... Just a freak. Soon after her arrival, she discovered an odd gift- animals around her seemed to behave... oddly. At first, Stabby didn't pay mind to it, perhaps she just had an odd scent that made them act so. But after prolonged exposure to her pet, Melinda (given to her as a gift), it became apparent that it was not a scent. Melinda began speaking, and not just weird nonsensical babbling, but structured and sensible sentences. Soon after, her personality became apparent as she became more and more sentient. Disturbed by this, Stabby began to avoid Melinda, but the sneaky little thing stalked her like a madwoman, not wanting to revert back to her stupid animalistic state without Stabby around. Stabby, already being rather submissive and mellow, eventually became Melinda's "pet" in a sense. She did what Melinda said, which wasn't bad really- just to stick around for most of the day. It was only bad when she was away too long because then she would get screamed at.

Pangir is a small, somewhat pudgy ??? with sandy colored fur. Her eyes are dark blue, almost appearing black and she has an X tattooed over her left eye. She often keeps her left eye closed to fake people out. Her hair is short and often styled to stick far out to the left.

She usually wears clothes for comfort more than looks- tanktops, hoodies, and flipflops are her primary wardrobe. She has a small assortment of headbands and hairclips that she likes to wear depending on which hairstyle she's using. For winter, she enjoys oversized coats and scarves.

Pangir is a generally bubbly person which might get on the nerves of more serious people, though her most annoying aspects are her mouth, strong opinions, and moodiness. She might be bouncing around happily one moment, then cussing someone out the next for a really random reason. In that aspect, she's not very "lady like" as she isn't afraid to curse up a storm if someone gives her a reason to. And her reasoning can seem very stupid sometimes. Even though she's rather active, she's overweight because she eats waaaay too much candy, sweets, and food in general. Despite this, she's generally healthy and moderately strong. She likes her size and would kick your arse if you called her out for it in a derogatory manner.

Trigger and Hellion were born normal children, but were thiefed by a demon when they were rather young. From then on, they were raised as siblings and administered a number of good/bad curses based on behavior. Hellion got his “sexist curse” that turned him into a girl whenever he was being a sissy (a weak girl, hence its name), which also made his ears grows exponentially. He could cut his ears, painfully, or turn into a girl and cut his hair, which didn’t hurt. This was supposed to teach him to be tough, but he sissied out a lot. Trigger was first punished for messing around with boys too much- the demon took away her lady parts. Just to be rebellious, Trig continued to act the same way despite that, and the demon got peesed. She was just a complete idiot, normal teen- he took her conscience and sex drive the next time. Soon after, she made her first kill, then another. And torture- ooh, torture was a good one~ She decided not to kill any more people after that; just torture them… Make them never forget her.

Hellion, meanwhile, was trying to find a way around his curse as well. After seeing the results of Trigger’s rebellion, he tried to be much more discrete about it. He became very good at lying and hiding his true emotions. Aside from that, he practiced magic, learning as much as he could about curses and the like, planning to somehow override the one placed on him. The demon found out, but instead of reprimanding him, he praised him and helped him learn more. It was a vital skill, after all. Hellion eventually learned to control his curse, changing into a female at will instead of accident. He also eventually freed himself of his oppressor, killing the demon. He sought to cure Trigger for a while, but after many a scuffle, he decided that he didn’t care enough to. Stupid (@#*!, still have your freaking fingers from the time you tried your *(@& on me. >_>

Frollock is generally shy, preferring to hole up in a tree alone than hang out on the ground with you weird "ground people." He has a few favorite trees in the dark forest which serve as his hideouts. He collects and stores little trinkets in these trees (primarily pinecones). No one is allowed to see his pinecones. No one except, perhaps ???. He hates squirrels passionately. If you happen to be interacting with him and he runs off suddenly, he's probably chasing a squirrel. To kill. Yup. :q

Arbideze is a warrior from the nation of Suchasa, a Freeverse place. Suchasa is in a constant state of war, the citizens fighting against each other for the limited resources, primarily the precious dirt. All Suchains are some plant-kinda animal thing and need to consume dirt, but after ages of carelessness, the supplies of the ‘common’ source have become uncommon, and now everyone’s scared of running out, and thus forming militant units to kill anyone that tries to touch their dirt. There are all sorts of different armies, ranging from single families, groups of families, towns, to large city armies. Most of the huge armies have fallen apart due to insurrection, betrayal, and stuff.

Deze was part of one of the larger armies; one from what used to be a city, though now it’s only crumbling ruins. The war had been going on since Deze was five, so he doesn’t really remember anything prior to it. He was trained from a young age to be loyal to his army, to know the importance of the scarce dirt, and how to fight. Warriors were required to show diversity in weapon usage, rather than specializing. This allowed them to be more creative in any sort of situation they might get in. For most of Deze’s career, he had nothing more than a boring ol’ sword and shield. Later he would scavenge a chakram and practiced using it since he never used such a weapon before.

During a raid on another city, he was separated from his people and abandoned. He fled the area before being killed, but could not find his way back home. He wandered on his own for a while, an extremely dangerous thing to do as there was no way he could get dirt by himself. He made it to a coastline where he ate fish to mildly sustain himself, but his body would not live long without soil. He met a squid there who he later named Anthony. Squids cannot talk, but they are intelligent. Anthony likely has a different name in squid language, but he agreed upon the audible name Anthony when Deze suggested it. Though squid and the plant things never really crossed paths, the two formed a friendship and Anthony let Deze in on a secret stash- Some dirt. Amazingly, it was surprisingly high in silt/clay content (for a once sandy beach, anyway) and was present in an underwater cave.

Deze lived with only Anthony for a while, slowly diffusing from the ideals he was brought up with. Unlike many of his species, he was independent and he enjoyed it. Even so, he wasn’t sure that he should be enjoying it, making him feel guilty as well. Thus, he was never very content with himself. After a while, other plant things moved in to the area, making it unsafe for Deze to stay. He was distraught about the idea of leaving Anthony and being truly alone, but he had to leave. Anthony surprised him by agreeing to leave with him and, after packing a supply of dirt, the two absconded from the now dangerous coastline.

Later, they would find a gnarled, hollow tree. They took shelter in it for a night and upon exiting, found that they were not where the tree originally was rooted. The lighting here was much different than the constant glaring sun- it was shaded, the light dappled from the leaves of the trees above…. Trees… Above? Living trees! And grass. GRASS. They had emerged into a forest loaded with so much soil that freaking huge trees were growing. For a while, Deze thought he died and went to heaven, which Anthony would squiddily roll his eyes to. Why would this be heaven for a squid as well? Deze eventually accepted this wonderful land as not being heaven and just continued to live his life. There were other creatures in this forest, but he stayed away from them due to his survival instincts.

This small insect-like freak oddly shares a similar body type to Frollock. He has small transparent wings on his back which can be used for gliding short distances, but they are otherwise rather useless.

Mosquito does not like you. He isn't in the forest to frolic about gaily; he's on a mission... That which he will not tell anyone. He doesn't like being near others and will keep as far away from them as possible. If approached by others, he will threaten them with his silly looking "nose"... Though it is stupid looking, it also is rather intimidating. I mean, how would you like to be bitten by a four foot tall mosquito? Ouch. If threatening doesn't work, he'll resort to running up a tree and hopping/gliding away in the treetops, though he'd rather be feared as to not be bothered again.

Machete does not like creepy stalkers, but Machete herself is a creepy stalker. She's deathly shy- too shy to go up and talk to someone- so she instead watches them at a distance. And follows them. And hides poorly if they look her way. There is no reason to be alarmed if she's following you though, she isn't more than a pest- she'd never act upon her creepy stalker-ness. The most she'll possibly do is poke someone she had been stalking if they happen to fall asleep- then dash off like a madwoman. If she's particularly bold (or drunk/retarded), she may even give a quick nuzzle to the stalkee before fleeing for her life. ... She is NEVER bold though. Dunno about drunk though. >.> If anyone happened to see her in the act of poking or nuzzling, she'd be so painfully embarrassed. Embarrassment is really, truly painful for her- she'll be sick for weeks on end if horribly embarrassed.

Machete is always sneaking in the shadows and generally avoiding public areas. She likes places where she can hide though, such as the playground and ruins. She walks or sneaks just about everywhere, rarely running as not to make a ruckus that may alert others to her presence. If you see her running, she's either fleeing from a deer or is OOC because I'm too impatient to walk somewhere she needs to be. xD In game, her emotions consist of: sad/head shake if a deer has cornered her and she can't get away, surprised if a deer blatantly discovers her or does something unthinkable such as nuzzle her (in which case she'd be mortified), shy if she's confronted by a deer but happens to *not* run, and angry/defensive if she's terrified and desperate. She never really does any of the happy emotions such as dancing, laughing, or frolicking; though she might if she is all by herself.

Rapier is an eccentric deer that lives in the forest. She insists that everyone must looks their best and, yes, she would identify as a fashionista. She decorates herself (and others) with trinkets, scarves, drapery, and jewelry. Since deer have no way of properly doing this, she totes around a little entourage of woodland creatures to help her with the task. Birds, squirrels, and the occasional raccoon always heed her call for help. Though she adores the animals, her favorite assistant is her friend, Kooma, the warrior spirit of her rapier. Kooma usually bounces by her side in bunny-thing form, but can shift forms to help with arranging when no animals are available. Usually, she only does this when she’s alone though, as warrior weapons aren’t taken to very nicely in the forest. Might retcon her warrior weapon?

Tialulu is ugly. She knows she’s ugly. She stayed away from the public eye, not letting anyone see this ugliness. She didn’t want to be treated differently.

After traveling endlessly, she came upon the forest. It was a nice place for a stop- plenty of vegetation to hide in and obscure her features from passing people. After having a rest, she started to move on again, moving through the bushy and such. She observed the others in the forest, wondering if they were having a festival or something due to the masks that adorned nearly all of their faces. She decided to stick around for a bit, enjoying this spectacle. A day passed and she slept in the forest again, sad that she didn’t have enough time to construct a mask and join in on the fun. It would be so perfect, to wear another face and be able to be someone else…

A yellow face stared back at her. It was a horrible face, maybe as horrible as her own. But it was the mask she had made for herself. She almost completed a different mask, a pretty mask; a thing she wanted to be. She couldn’t bring herself to wear that mask though, and discarded it. She was making this new persona for herself, something to cover what she really was… But she couldn’t don the pretty mask. She just couldn’t. She was not pretty and couldn’t pretend to be pretty. She was an ugly person. She put on the yellow mask.

Slowly, she emerged from the bushes. A week had passed since she arrived, but she still saw others wearing masks, so she decided to take the risk. No one said anything to her. None of the beautiful masks gave the yellow one more than a glance. It was a strange experience for her; she was relieved from the lack of ridicule, but at the same time, she was sad from the lack of attention. She had always been alone; she wanted to be with others.

Suddenly, as if she had been possessed, she clambered to the top of a nearby rock pile and started singing loudly. She had no idea what her voice was like, but in that moment it didn’t matter. They turned their heads finally and witnessed the strange spectacle that was a singing yellow-faced gremlin. The events that followed were a blur to Tialulu, but a crowd had gathered and they laughed, danced, and started to make a raucous that drowned her out entirely. No one forgot who had started the party though- that goofy little fool with a weird voice.

The yellow gremlin was accepted by this society. He was funny and a real sport, good to laugh at and laugh with. An ugly person can only be accepted if they have entertainment value. Lou was a joke to them, but he was just happy to be accepted. Tialulu on the other hand, was still completely alone.

Xylophone has been the peace keeper of Ij for 120 (ish?) years, starting his reign at the end of a war that wiped the last of his species out. The previous peacekeeper took note of this and tried to preserve the species by turning the only male he could find into the new keeper and freezing some chicks. Chicks are another story though. Xy was instructed to lay low for a bit, but he was kinda like FRAK THAT FRAKKAGE and made the peacekeeper a public thing. For the first time in who knows how long, the peacekeeper became a celebrity. His plights were made known to everyone- how the peacekeeper keeps freaking dying, not allowing any knowledge to be passed on so STOP FREAKING FIGHTING AHOLES. Weirdly, this brought about an era of peace- at least among the own planet’s peoples (which is all that mattered for the PK). Instead, deep space exploration was the new thing to be funded and conquering new planets became a bigger thing. Xy is well respected now and many come to him for meetings/world politics/advice/ect. When he’s not booked with appointments, he travels about on his ship, usually accompanied by his slave, Splash. He’s also totally an arrogant, bossy, spoiled, AHOLE himself.

Splash is Xy’s current slave/assistant. He had an irrolg assistant first because he was nervous about his fame at first and skittish about controlling others, but he soon got fat headed from all the attention, fired that dbag and got a tata. He didn’t like his first tata because it was so FREAKING skittish, it was annoying! D:< He took a shine to Splash though, as her demeanor was usually just calm. No matter how pissy and/or gay he got, she always was just like “More tea sir?” and stuff. He also doesn’t like having a bunch of people in his crap, so he just has Splash and another tata as a secretary for his appointments.

I CAN'T FIND THE SUMMARY OF THIS PLOT, SO. Have an RP thing. 8P

“But I refuse…” The dull blue eyes of the sara fluttered and closed before she could finish her defiant statement and she settled into the light sleep the doctor warned her she would go into.

She awoke to find herself cold. Very, very cold; freezing even. She gasped and her eyes flung open, duller than their usual color- she was still very tired and groggy. Extreme discomfort had awoken her; a coldness all around, although she had no idea why she would be so cold. Her blurred vision made the room around her swim incomprehensibly and she raised a shaky arm before her, trying to feel ahead, only for it to be blocked by nothing with a light ‘thump’. Thump, thump. Both of her hands hit the invisibility, and as her vision became more clear, she discovered that she was in some sort of plastic tube. A giant test tube? But why would she be in somewhere so odd when she had just fallen asleep in a chair just hours ago… Her droopy ears twitched irritably from the cold, but still functioned well, telling her that there were voices around her. Turning her head to the right, she glimpsed another sara, pale white and saying something, though she wasn’t able to comprehend it for a moment.

Everything seemed alien and strange, as if she was on another planet and the other girl was speaking Vitrian. Then she finally noticed something disturbing- the other was naked. She looked down to finally recognize that she was also as unfortunate and quickly wrapped her arms around herself. What was this foreign place? Why was this happening to her? She couldn’t remember…

The sara residing in the next tube over tapped a sharp finger to the plastic, experimentally, examining the thin, wet layer of ice trailing over the surface surrounding her. She was bored- disgusted even- with her situation. Once the shock and confusion of waking up in a place so surreal passed, it was really was the only way one could feel. Aside from cold, very cold. Her eyes rolled to the left to focus boardly on the similar-situated sara next door.

“Can you hear me?” The blue-eyed sara called to the other in a small hoarse tone. Alarmed at the scratchy, almost manly tone of her voice, her eyes widened. She closed her eyes in an extended blink, mumbling softly to herself the same question again, making sure she had heard correctly. Saddened that her voice remained the same unattractive tone, she looked over at the other sara again to see if she had noticed her speaking.

The other female's expression remained unchanged, but her lips parted to form a series of unheard sounds. Not a sound wandered from between the thick panes of ice and plastic, but the faint voice vibrations rattled around her cell, forcing her into silence. Blue eyes stared at the other, understanding. Perhaps she had just heard herself mumbling earlier, but hadn’t realized what she was doing. She glanced around the room more hopefully, spotting about five or so more tubes with saras in them, confused as she was probably. Realizing now that there was no sound other than her own raspy breathing, blue eyes became unnerved. She curled up, leaning against the side of the tube, hoping that something would answer her plea for answers; something, anything…
~

A loud “clack!” awoke blue eyes once more. She had fallen asleep again in the tube, but now the walls of the prison were slowly descending around her, letting in air from the room outside, which was warm and welcoming. She let out a long breath and widened her eyes, sure that she heard the surprised murmurs of others around her now that the barriers were eliminated. “Hello?”

As the rounded clear walls decended fully into the floor, small amounts of chilled water spilled out onto the stone floor. More bothered looking then enchanted as some of the other girls displayed, the white sara stepped forward from her prison spot. She expected her legs to give, but instead they stiffly held her weight, giving her time to nearly glare at the others. Her icey eyes drifted from one face to the next, demanding a response.

No one replied directly, but blue eyes didn’t take it to heart. She watched the standing sara next to her, to see what she would do. Normally blue eyes liked to lead, but she was confused and afraid, so she felt the need to leave that responsibility to the more confident looking girl.

A door in front of the girls slid open suddenly, distracting her from the other though, and two figures entered; a man and a woman. The taller of the two was a sky blue tata with lime green markings. She wore a dull purple dress, plum gloves, and a matching apron. Her docile face and slightly drooped ears confirmed that she was the man‘s servant. The male was a sara, shorter by quite a substantial amount seeing as he was male. He had a stern and serious face, making him intimidating despite his height and he didn’t look happy either. He seemed confused even, and after staring for only a few seconds, he looked away and appeared to be blushing. All girls remained silent, but there was a sort of unanimous discomfort that worked its way into even the most confident of them at the sight of this male. They had, after all, learned early on how few sara males there were.

The awkward silence ensued until finally, the male mustered up the courage to speak. “Hello. My name is Xylophone, eh…” He cut off awkwardly, his face clearly showing his discomfort.

Blue eyes stared at him in awe, and despite his bashful and unconfident behavior, she was under that the impression that this wasn’t normally how he acted. No, he was a confident and successful man. He had to be, all males usually were… “You’re all… All… Girls…” He stated the obvious, feeling quite stupid. “Saras.” More obvious information. How much of a fool could he make out of himself before he said anything of use? “Well… Who are you? Names?” There. Now they had to talk instead of him and he would be given more time to think of something more intelligent to say. The overly confident white female sneered silently, lip curling while she tried to physically brush the pink from her cheeks. She nearly made her introduction with a brisk profanity, but a wisp of a thought halted her just in time. This was one of few males she had seen in her life, and despite her utter hate for the current conditions, he could be useful later on...Fur spiked with renewed vigor since she had been brought to this place, she rid herself of the water hiding between her follicles with a dog-like shake.

When no one spoke up, the bit of confidence he gained from the question dissipated. “Oh… Well, I suppose you would rather hear ‘Here are some clothes!’ huh? Uh… Splash, would you mind fetching some things?” His head swiveled over to the tata, more of an excuse to look away from the naked girls before him than anything. The tata, Splash, nodded once and hastily made her way down the hall which they came from, disappearing into a room. She didn’t waste any time in gathering garments for the unclothed girls and returned swiftly, making her way around the room to hand out the temporary clothes- mostly cloaks and jackets, just to make them halfway decent for now.

Xylophone seemed more at ease once the girls were less awkward. “Anyone willing to give a name yet? Or a word even?” Of course, still an awkward silence while the girls looked from one to the other, daring someone to speak. Whitey was highly frustrated by the silence- how freaking rediculous! He was just a male, and a rather shy looking one at that. Flaunt in her step, poison thoughts aimed at the other girls in her mind, she whipped her cloak around her and wibbled on sore feet right up to him. "Nyla," she huskily crackled, drawing a finger over his cheek maliciously. His expression was priceless- he looked like a frightened little boy. Not thinking of a better reply, he quickly almost mumbled back, “Hi, Nyla…” After Nyla’s confident move, some others began piping up as well.

“Risetta,” The girl on blue eye’s right said with a surprisingly clear voice, her deep red eyes staring up at Xylophone and Nyla with a hint of jealousy.

“Falen.”

“Cadence!”

Blue eyes looked at each one as they spoke, making mental matches of their name to their face. The room quieted down after eight names had been spoken and blue eyes realized she herself had failed to speak. In a quiet, embarrassed tone, she finally gave away her name, “Ave…” Nyla tilted her head back elegantly only when she heard Ave's name, mildly interested. She was, after all, the only one to acknowledge her, which made Nyla feel oddly protective over the younger-looking sara. But once Ave finished speaking, Nyla's attention slipped back to the rare find in front of her. "You." She was blunt with him none the less.

“Me…?” Xylophone stared at her, into her eyes, disturbed to find how confident and dominant they were. He broke the eye contact, internally hitting himself for appearing weak, but hell, why should that matter? He practically owned this girl since… No, that wasn’t the proper way to word it. One can own a tata, sure, but not a sara. They may have been extinct for over one hundred years, excluding himself, but that in no way put any sara below his level. But still… They were his responsibility at least, so he shouldn’t feel intimidated. Billions of people practically bowed down to him and he thought nothing of it; there was no way one girl could make him so uneasy. He forced himself back into eye contact. “Nyla… Can you tell me what you remember?”

Her pointed claw slid over his jaw line again contently while she spoke. "I was just about finished with my damned laundry before I was summoned here. Explain the ice bath, boy, it was sort of unnecessary, don't you think?"

“Oh… I apologize, but none of this was my doing. You’re all probably rather confused, as am I. An old colleague of mine must have pulled this together before he kicked the can. He was a crazy old bastard, excuse my language.” Xylophone seemed to become a bit more confident once he got into the flow of talking about nothing. Nyla's expression sunk and set into a glare. An annoyed curse was at the tip of her tongue, but she bit down on it reluctantly to keep it from being spoken. "...I think you're mistaken," her voice broke from lack of use and, while she tried to regain it, she shot a look to Ave to pick up where she left off. Not even able to comprehend the look, much less the courage to continue this girl’s speech, Ave stayed silent as Xylophone went on. “Mistaken? I doubt I am…” He looked around the room suddenly, frowning. “This is a dreary and weird part of the house; perhaps we should relocate to somewhere more comfortable so we can all talk? Some more suitable clothes and food wouldn’t hurt either I think?”

Some of the girls were nodding and murmuring in agreement, but Ave was frozen, still wondering what Nyla’s look was for. Ave knew she was considered slow by some, and hoped that she wasn’t being stupid now, when the “leader” had given her a look that may have been important. A cough finally cleared her speak-valves (YUSH), but Nyla didn't finish. While the other girls began following Xylophone from the room, she spun on her heel to take Ave by her shoulder.

A small chill spiked up Ave's spine when Nyla took ahold of her. It wasn't aggressive, yet she feared it anyways. Thinking Nyla was have disapproved of her lack of action earlier, she tried to make up for it with conversation now, but only one more word managed to get out, "Hi..." Nyla raised one eyebrow high, suffering from a confusion attack brought on by Ave. "...hi," she grumped, letting go. "Say something, gosh darnit," Ave thought to herself desperately, Nothing came to mind. Ave looked away, feeling oddly tired again. Equally tired from her "exersion" (if that was what it was called), Nyla just gave Ave's jacket a tug towards the door. "Next time I ask for help, you'll try, won't you?"

Ave's eyes widened with dismay at her failure and she tilted her head forward, forcing a few curly blue hairs over her face, half hiding her guilty expression. "I didn't know what to do. I'm really sorry." It wasn't difficult to determine that she was sincere; her face was that of a puppy that had been kicked for misbehaving. Feeling rather betchslapped due to the face Ave made, Nyla tossed the other sara's hair in a familiar way, shaking her head. "Cool it. Just follow the others." And so they did.

Wraith was born Linnae Lovato, a would-be normal girl. That is, if she hadn’t been undergoing a series of injections while still in the womb. This procedure, among others, was continued after her birth as well for some experiment her parents didn’t entirely understand. Her family’s low class status made it exceedingly hard for them to get by, especially when they found out her mother was pregnant. As a solution, they agreed to some experiment to be done with their daughter for compensation. Many families were in similar situations, and thus there was a small generation of mutant children. Once the facility was ousted, the children were seized by the government and put under protective custody. Her parents fought to get her back, but to no avail. Wraith, like many others in the experiment, was put into foster care.

Now a young adult, she attends ??? Academy to be a flier. Pissed at society, she believes that she needs to get back at it in whatever way she can, including, but not limited to, breaking norms. Girls never become fliers, but there was no freaking reason for it, so gosh darn it all, she’d be a flier. She devoted herself to learning and being the best student she could be, despite constant ridicule from her peers. Near graduation time, she discovered that she was basically being screwed over by the school and wouldn’t get full privileges as a flier. Also around this time, Xylophone and some of his ladies were visiting the school. Scheming occurred and soon after, Wraith helped two of the girls get their freedom. She and the girls live on Trix now, keeping away from Nook.

Nook is an average irrolg student at ??? Academy. He’s arrogant, prideful and a bit of a douche. Okay, he’s a more than a bit of a douche, but whatever. Along with Wraith, he was one of the best fliers in school, but received popularity rather than ridicule like his female colleague. Being a top student, he was one of the people to go after Wraith when she reportedly killed two of the peacekeeper’s ladies. He was the only one who was left chasing her when he shot her down over Caseatrix, right as he received a transmission informing him that the girls were kidnapped, not killed. OSHEETA- he landed on the foreign planet to search for them… And still is. Lulz.

Bazooka (Marissa) was originally from the City, but ran away because uh, there was a thing. With a thing. And a thing. Uhhh, yeaaaah. She’s now hiding in the small village of Varg, far off from where anyone would expect to find her. Even so, she’s scared to go near people, so she hangs out in the surrounding forest, occasionally scavenging from the town. She is easily alarmed, randomly clingy, and LOVES FOOD. Because it is so delicious. She’s the slowest eater on the planet, probably, savoring every second of food that isn’t disgusting, rotted crap. Omg, cookies. @_@

Tark came from the same city as Bazooka, but stuck around ‘cause I dunno. She misses that sweet little Baz coming by her shop for a pastry or two though~ Such a cute little girl, despite being a skeleton; must feed her~ Oh yeah, she owns a little café there, hence the pastry thing.

I'll add all the trolls' writings when I make them not crappy. :D;;;

Rbd’s “adopted brother,” who she caught when he was drifting in the wind as a spiderling. Thrilled, she brought him home to Momma Spider, who faked delight. Curt has always been terrified of Mom, but always fakes the “happy family” ordeal when rbd is around. Not that he could tell her if he wanted to- she’d either not believe him, or Mom would eat him. That aside, he’s very close to his sister and enjoys her company immensely. Since he became a merchant of sorts, he hasn’t been near home as much, making visits more sparing (rbd: ;o;).

oshit, I just realized his writing was out of date 8B8B8B Basically, he's a battle-y kinda dude. Because. Not all trainers are, you know. *descriptive*

April isn't really into pokemon, but she loves achievment and meeting new people. So, she put together a small team of three (after much experiment with others)- luxray, floatzel, and lopunny. With these three, she earned bages, traveled around, ect, but she never really liked floatzel and lopunny after they evolved (she gets creeped out by pokemons' looks sometimes), so she always keeps them in storage, planning to trade them or something. Currently, she travels around with Dirk, growing rare berries, and studying battling ... stuff. as well as traveling and growing berries, she runs a kind of foster care for abused pokemon. She takes in five pokemon at a time to travel with, treating them well and bringing up their trust in humans again, before finding them good homes. She does this because it gets her a good reputation and to attempt to get over her freaked-out-ness over certain pokemon. xD April, like Therin, experimented with a couple different pokemon early on... Well. Not for the same reasons exactly- she just wanted to get a full team of six as early as possible. It was something like two bidoofs (Fudge and Mixie), a starly (Stipple), a shinx (Dink), a psyduck (Enigma), and her starter, chimchar (Chimmy) [not that the names matter, but these are real pokemon xD]. She liked Mixie and Chimmy the most, so they leveled quickly, but they also started evolving quickly... April was horrified of bibareals (or whatever) and thought monferno was ugly, so she had to stop the evolution each time. She got annoyed and just stopped training her bidoofs and Chimmy, leaving her with the others (which sucked at the time). However, Stipple and Dink got considerably better once they evolved. April didn't like it at first, but they weren't as bad as bibarial and monferno, so she got used to them. She eventually ditched Enigma in favor of a different water pokemon, buizel, which she named Excaliber. She realized by this time that having a team of six wasn't always best, so just kept with these three for a while. She later caught a buneary and decided it might be a good idea to build up a friendship before training it so it would start at a lower level as a lopunny (she was more experienced by this time, so knew about buneary's kind of evolution). She didn't really like lopunny, but heard that it was a strong pokemon (it actually kinda is oO), so she went with it. She put Stipple in storage when it evolved into staraptor because it scared her. She only kept Excaliber, Dink, and the lopunny around long enough to get all the badges- then she stuck Excaliber (who was floatzel by now ew xD) and the lopunny in storage, keeping Dink around for protection.

Yee: Therin's first pokemon was a cyndaquil, but he didn't raise it past a quilava. He caught a lot of pokemon early on, experimenting with who to keep on the main team. His team changed up a lot, but the first pokemon he caught that stayed on his team was Yee the quagsire. It wasn't a special occassion when he caught him- an ordinary catch like any other. He never even planned to train Yee up, but kept him in his team because he was the only water pokemon at the time. Yee was... never supposed to evolve, actually. Because Yee just seems like a wooper name, you know? XD But alas! Yee was always... kind of annoying. He wasn't stupid or anything (as people often seem to portray quagsire), he just seemed to outright enjoy getting on everyone elses' nerves. He likes playing practical jokes on the rest of the team and Therin. As afore mentioned, most people just think quagsires are dumb, so "he can't really help it, he's just an idiot". He doesn't mind this though because it just means he can get away with everything.

Claren: Therin came across Claren when exploring the Burnt Tower. It was really dark and he was using his quilava for lighting, when they were attacked by a crudload of koffing. They made it away, but just barely- quilava had fainted in the attack, and so they had no lighting. Therin was getting freaked out, trying to find his way out in the dark, when he heard a slight crackling behind him. He turned around quickly to see a freaking magmar standing right behind him. And, you know, magmar is freaking fugly and it'd probably be scary as hell to have that pop up behind you. XDD So Therin sent out Yee, recently evolved, who blasted the poor thing. It wasn't fighting back, so Therin just decided he might as well try out a dusk ball that he bought from the store recently and captured it. Later on, he found out that the magmar was extremely loving and gentle in nature- in fact, Claren originally appeared to Therin because he wanted to help light his way. Claren is like Luna in a way- he's very parenty towards everyone else, including Therin. He's very sweet and kind, but he shows no sign of that in battle, which he takes very seriously. He's a very forgiving guy too- he didn't hold anything against Therin for freaking out, for one.

Triforce: Therin was pretty well off by the time he came across the Safari Zone. He had Yee, Claren, a pidgeot, and some other decent pokemon that I forget. He really wanted an electric pokemon though and after some planning, decided on a magneton. After some research, he came to learn that there were magnemite in the safari zone, so off he went. Catching a magnemite proved to be rather easy and he still had quite a few safari balls left, so he kept searching. After catching a few pokemon for the pokedex, he was surprised to come across a magneton. He happily went after it and, in the process of breaking a bunch of safari balls, finally caught it. He eventually named it Triforce because one of his friends thought it would be funny (Swee xD). Triforce quickly became his best battler, which was odd because the magneton always seemed a bit... dull. Not stupid exactly, just kinda like "off in la la land" all the time. He never really bonded with the rest of the team, always preferring to be off by himsel(ves?), daydreaming. Therin, though he battled with Tri the most, was puzzled at how powerful Tri was since he never seemed to even concentrate on the battles.

Odette: Ever since Triforce's success on his team, Therin always planned ahead which pokemon to add next. Research research later he traveled to the Whirl Islands to catch a horsea. Yes, he already had a water pokemon, but he really was really interested in kingdra, the final evolution, for its partial dragon type. He could have gone with dratini, but heard that they were hard to raise, so no. Anyway, he finally found a horsea after searching around and caught it, but then became skeptical. It was a male horsea. His entire team was already male... A disadvantage if he was put up against a female pokemon with attract. So he hung around a bit more and finally caught a female horsea, which he named Odette. Odette was extremely low level compared to the rest of the team by this time, so she wore the exp share and watched the others battle, slowly getting up there in level. Therin also fed her a lot of pokemon vitamins to raise her stats, which she liked... But she did not like battling. At all. She always got upset and anxious watching her teammates battle, getting both squeamish and scared for them when things got rought. So you could imagine how freaked out she was when she was deemed high level enough to battle on her own. She was always scared and battled as if she were going to die, which actually made her a pretty bad battler, always too nervous to think right. Somehow she continued to level though, with the team's support and finally evolved... Which made her depressed. She was always concerned about her looks and thought seadras were hideous. All in all, she is a very unhappy pokemon as well as the "baby" of the team because she's the worse battler and the lowest level. Claren can usually cheer her up just enough to make her not completely emo, but she's still pretty bad. She is kind of distrusting towards people now though- she never wanted to battle and never wanted to evolve. Oh, also, Therin was away from civilization while training her when she evolved into a seadra, so he didn't have the opportunity to evolve her into a kingdra over trade. When he got back to civilization, he proposed the idea and Odette FLIPPED. THE. FREAK. OUT. XD Because kingdra is like, OMG SO UGLEE!!!!!111one She threw such a fit that she scared Therin and he decided to just let her be. xD

Dice: Therin became tired of using a low level, non-battling pokemon for transportation, so he again planned out a pokemon that could be battled and ridden. He decided on a dodrio, but wanted to switch it up a little. This time, instead of catching it in the wild, he wanted to raise the pokemon from an egg. He had no idea where he could get an egg though, so he set out to catch a male and female to breed himself. How hard could it be, right? Oooh, boy... I won't even get into the crazy battle where he ended up catching two dodou and a dodrio. After that little fiasco, he decided to just leave the still wild-ish, untrained birds in the hands of experienced breeders in order to get his egg. He thought it would produce a stronger baby between the dodrio and dodou, but after leaving them with the breeders for a while, they reported back that she'd have nothing to do with the poor dodou. Therin was a bit bummed, but the other dodou he caught was female, so he sent it over in place of the dodrio. Then he went on his training mission away from it all in which Odette evolved, so he didn't hear from them in a while. When he got back, he was surprised to hear that there were three eggs waiting for him. He hatched all three and observed them to see which would be likely to like battling- he didn't want to make a mistake like he did with Odette again (she had her episode about becoming a kingdra just recently xD). Dice seemed to fit the bill- when exp share training her, she'd often jump in the battles to help despite her low level. Over time, she became one of the stronger team members, quickly leaving Odette in the dust (so Odette was still the "baby" even though Dice was younger). Dice loves to battle and is even a bit arrogant about it. ... She's a bit arrogant about most everything though- being the youngest on the team, but the most "useful" because she carries them all around (well, when Therin has them in their pokeballs ya' know), is the youngest yet the "best" battler, ect.

Dink: Dink was always a pretty chill dude. Though April tried her hardest not to openly OMG UR SO UGLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! at random pokemon she deemed so, Dink was good at reading her after being with her so long and knew she was anything but pleased when he evolved into a luxray. He generally just leaves her alone though, as not to bother her, and she has grown very attached to him for being so considerate to her stupidness (yes, she's aware of how much of a moron she is for freaking out over what they look like xD).

Muse is a confused little V3 virus, suffering amnesia for unknown reasons. He doesn’t know how he should act, so he tries to mimic the behaviors of people he’s around at the moment and is rather good at matching demeanor. He’s a tad silly by nature and occasionally lets it show. He’s unnaturally calm about things he doesn’t understand; admiring, avoiding, and questioning when appropriate. He doesn’t know how to battle, so he hides behind Amby and Canta when conflicts arise. Amby is his BFF and they love to frolic about together, wreaking havoc gayness across the land.

Cantanda is an outwardly stoic V2 virus that lives/travels with Ambient and Muse. She’s secretly working for an organization trying to find more of her (and Amby/Muse’s) kind. She thinks she knows their intentions, but… Does she really; is she the villain? Or is she being fooled? She is capable of storing three voices- one in her mouth and one in each of her mouth arms. In battle, she uses sound-based attacks, martial arts, and her mouth arms to bite/eat things.

Ambient is a lumbering silly oaf in the form of a V2 virus. He found Muse and convinced Canta to keep him, as if he were a pet. He and Muse are BFF though, and Amby was the first to show him the land and teach him all about it after his amnesia. Ambient has a very odd body that can squash and stretch dramatically. He’s definitely the tank of the team, able to take a massive amount of damage on his sturdy frame. He’s also very creative in battle, using his squash/stretch in a variety of crazy ways that usually catch the opponent off guard.

Slash is an antivirus gone rogue. He used to be a normal AV, until he went nuts. He was stationed to protect a bunch of sparkledogs and after getting ditched there accidentally for a stupid amount of time, he went mad. They were just so STUPID! He wanted to kill them all, but couldn’t. ALAS. He just left them, hoping a virus would come along and do it for him.

Pancake - Natuka - Quintillion - Daunt - Cnat - Box - Walking Pie - Walking Cheese - HHC

Pancake was one of Tickle’s pet winged lions. Pancake was very hard to break for some reason and Tickle’s family, not to be bothered, was going to get rid of her. Tickle gave her to Teresa because Tere is very good with animals and otherwise would not be able to afford a winged lion. Pancake became Tere’s loyal companion. When the girls left for Ciu, they presumed there would be no place for a large animal in the city, so they sent her to a renowned wildlife reserve for such animals where she was well taken care of. After the fyre outbreak, the caretakers died and Pancake escaped. She flew around aimlessly for years, just living, until she came across the Susan farm. Lions have exceptional memory and are loyal creatures, so Pancake remembered Kurry as someone she should serve. She lived with them for a while, up until they went to the mehzor hideout place. After the vetala destroyed the place, she rescued Vivian, someone she recognized as important to Kurry, and flew off. She’s been with Viv ever since.

Natuka is Curmudgeon’s younger sister. Cur’s mother really wanted a girl and, even though she knew she shouldn’t have more children due to some birthing thing she had, she risked it for Natuka. They both nearly died, but eventually they made it through. However, Natuka had creepy eyes and was probably autistic because she hardly ever talked beyond making weird noises and just stood about like a zombie most of the time. Natuka was her mom’s world though. When she was three, she had to have surgery to remove a swelling eye that threatened to explode and cause serious damage. Natuka seemed happy and lively (for her) after that, but it was short lived, for a few months later, she began bumping into things and crying (silently, usually) all the time. She wouldn’t respond to comfort and hid to be by herself when and if she could. On another visit to the doctor it was discovered that she was now completely blind and her remaining eye needed to be removed. It was a terrible time for Natuka and her mother, but Natuka quickly showed signs of wellness again and was soon restored to her usual self. She died when Cur accidentally stabbed her with a sickle.

Quintillion is Cur’s weapon, a sickle. He stole him from his dad’s work place when he was a teenager and has kept him ever since. Cur is rather cruel to Quin, who was already a bit shy to begin with, causing Quin to be a very melancholy fellow. Even though he isn’t bound to Cur, he would never disobey him out of fear.

Daunt is Dartanion’s warrior weapon, a stick. He chose Dart as his master because Dart was “the most adorable little thing,” aka he was a white ball of fluff dyed with pink and light blue. Daunt presumed Dart was gay, or at least very effeminate, which he thought would be something nice to have in common with your warrior. He ended up being wrong, obviously, but he still loves Dart to bits and pieces. He’s a very loud and silly fellow which intimidated Dart at first. As they grew together, Daunt’s personality started rubbing off on Dart though, making him a bit obnoxious and a bit gayer than he probably would have been otherwise. But it’s Fenc-Rati, so. Not gay. Daunt thinks Fenc-Rati’s not-gay thing is retarded, but he doesn’t make a fuss about it. Whatevs, man!

Cnat is a dyre that is in love with Lukrezia’s tail. She doesn’t know where it came from; it just appeared one day and has been snuggling her tail ever since.

Box is a favorite toy Lewis had from childhood. When reanimated, Box turned out to be a very quiet, shy fellow. Lewis still has him and keeps him like a pet.

Walking Cheese, Walking Pie, and Half-Hatched Chicken are some of Lewis’s favorite animated creations. WC and WP hate each other and always verbally abuse the crap out of each other, which Lewis finds hilarious. HHC is pretty silent and just kinda chills like a villain.

Nox - Teroz - Galli - Samy - Ninja - Sucia - Bug - J-Rizm - Newbie - Staffy - Muffin - Gobblygook - Lis - Archie - Darwin

Nox is Lillian’s dear friend, who she would never use the term ‘pet’ for, but it could be seen that way. When Lillian was very young, she ventured into the dark forest near her home to play. She got lost and was terrified, but a small black duex led her back to the border. He would have been a terrifying site to a young girl, but he was able to mind synch with her in order to make her feel safe. Indeed, Nox had a special gift that other duex did not possess- instead of being able to communicate with his own kind with the mind synching ability, he was able to communicate with casea. This made him an outcast of his own kind which led to a very lonely life. He had hoped to see the one who was brave enough to venture into the forest again, but she would not return for many years. This time she was an adult and her reasons for being in the forest were quite different. Nox remembered her clearly and went to seek her out immediately. What he found was so different from the child he had originally met, that he was surprised, but only until he read her history. He looked through her entire life, reliving the events that made her the empty shell that she was now. Nox approached her and offered her companionship for her time of banishment in the forest. In the second Chichai game, this is what led her to become good and eventually fight for a righteous cause, which ultimately led to her just death. IRL, Lill was poofed out of the game very soon after reuniting with him, thus she was still very lost. She got poofed back into the game where she left off, but this time with Tantalus. Due to her exposure to the real world, it was no longer so simple to recover her ravaged mind. He did his best to be a good companion to Lillian and Tantalus both though.

Teroz is Lillian’s warrior weapon, a polearm or something. He used to be her father’s weapon, but he had not been used in a while, as her father was a pretty old guy and didn’t do much fighting himself anymore. Teroz, like his master, was a truly evil being, and sought Lillian’s young and impressionable mind. Unbeknownst to his master, he had plans of his own for her. Instead of training her up to be his master’s minion, he watched and waited for the time to make her HIS minion. Lill was a very good, proper child- it was so hard to make her hate. However, her father had devised a plan- he obtained a trinket that Lill’s friend, Galli, wore all the time. He planned to murder Galli and plant the trinket on someone else, driving her to her first slaughter. The plan failed utterly when Teroz whispered to Lill, leading her to the truth- that her father had murdered her bff and would destroy everything she ever cared about. She couldn’t kill him herself, but Teroz helped her with that. A child was easy to possess- easy to alter the mind of. They made her first murder together, that of which there would be many more. Teroz coddled her, making her invest her utmost trust in him alone and he shaped her to be what the old man no longer could be- a killer, out on the battlefield. Her father may have been too old to keep on fighting, but Teroz was an immortal, he had all of the time and energy he needed… And the only remaining component to his desires was a weak minded, but strong bodied individual to play out his desires to kill.

Galli was Lillian’s friend when she was younger. He lived in a small village in the mountains where Lill’s dad often sent her to train. He always went out exploring to find new things because he was an incredibly curious child and often got away with it. One day, however, he was captured by a band of gordruns and set up to be eaten. Gordruns are magical beings who feed off of waves sent off of sleeping people. The process is anything but harmless and literally drains the substance out of a person until they die. Galli was tied up in their home cave and they merely had to wait for him to sleep. With no hope for escape and exhaustion from trying so hard to stay awake bearing down on him, Galli succumbed to slumber while in their grasp, never expecting to wake up again. Lill, who was training nearby, witnessed the glow emitted when gorduns begin eating and, with the mind of a righteous warrior, rushed over to dispatch the evil beasts. Galli woke up the next day to find himself in the presence of a cute, but disheveled girl with a blunt sort of polearm weapon. They became friends after this instance and would travel together often. Lill taught Galli fighting techniques and he taught her various survival tactics for living in a remote wilderness. When Lill’s dad captured him, he bashed him in the head to knock him out and cut him to get blood to put on his trinket. However, he hadn’t killed him yet and, due to Teroz’s intervention, Galli woke up safely yet again and was able to flee. He never saw Lill again, as she had fled to another area under Teroz’s instruction.

Samy was Tibby’s pet dandan dog. He had her since he was 10 and she died of a disease when she was 8.

Ninja is Stealth’s pet cat. Stealth received Ninja as a parting gift from his parents when he was 12 and moving to Ciu with his older brother, Farid. Ninja is a rather old cat, but not terribly so. He is more of a chill cat, but does have bouts of glee-insanity.

Sucia is Zyoko’s sister. She used to be very close with her little brother, but their connection was severed when he “when through puberty” and became a little shit. He was increasingly cruel to her while he lived at home, driving her to depression which he would jeer at her for having.

Bug was Zyoko’s pet bug thing. After being an ass for so long, no one really liked Zy by the time he began chilling out and being a wuss. All he had then was this stupid bug. It would bite him sometimes, but it was still a companion, even though it was ugly and mean. He couldn’t really afford a high maintenance pet, so it was all he had. I think Sada got him another bug after the first one died? He still has that one.

Nuki’s kitties are just… Well, Nuki’s kitties. The momma cat is J-Rizm, the kittens are Newbie, Staffy, and Muffin (renamed by Reeve because “Editorial is a stupid name for a kitten”), the senile one that pees on everything is Gobblygook, and the neutered male is Lead. Reeve hates them all.

Lis is Lulz’s older twin sister and the more dominant of the two. As a teen, she was randomly rebellious and did a bunch of bad crap, cutting her hair/straightening it to differentiate from her little, innocent sis. She eventually got out of that silliness, but the hair thing stayed, as she didn’t want to be defined by having a twin, especially since they were so different. Presently, she works as a police officer, trying to clean up the streets she once terrorized as a youth and generally being a badass. She also looks after her nephew, Mobius, when her parents are busy.

Archie and DARWIN DARKIE (lololo, he's just Darwin really) are the gangsta ganstas. Or. Mobsters. Mobsters, yeah; I think that's the more appropriate term? XD *KNOWS NOTHING ABOUT THIS* And because I don't know about it, I can't really say much about the structure of their, uh... Organization, I guess. I'm sure I've already told you the main points about them- They bumped off the couple that found Enya, saw her, and thiefed her because no one knew who the crap she was, so they didn't know if she should be hit or what. Archie wanted to keep her because he likes exotic shinies and Darkie wanted to keep her because he also likes exotic shinies. But he's a pimp, so. >:k Anyway, yeah, I dunno. They're both pretty much huge a-holes, but I can never develop them, seeing as they're TUFF GUYS.

Twitch - Patrick - Erissa - Finfi - Konita - Alex - Carmelo - Rik's Parents - Abriia - Libranch - Curio - Zefur

Twitch is Enya’s “pet” evavsivanivanis. She found him in the city, where they are considered pests and are thus commonly exterminated. He was dying from a poison pest control use to kill them, but Enya nursed him back to health. She kept him secretly in her room for a while, but Archie eventually found out. He allowed her to keep Twitch though, only he insisted that it be kept in a cage, which he bought for her. After Enya poofed to FV, Twitch was allowed to roam freely once again; he would often run amok in the forest for hours before retiring to Enya’s room again. Personality-wise, he’s mischievous and playful when around Enya and certain others. He likes to play pranks on random people for his and (he thinks) Enya’s amusement. He’s extremely protective of Enya and others being threatened by bullies, and will defend with his life.

Patrick is Enya’s childhood friend and eventual love interest. Patrick and Enya were both very lively children, preferring to run about crazily more than anything else. The devious duo loved to sneak off to quad areas, explore, and just romp about gaily. When they moved into a clan, these escapades became a less frequent experience shared between them, especially when Erissa popped into the picture. He became interested in Erissa because she was so persistent and upfront with her feelings; he was a bit confused by Enya’s weird actions by that point. He’s currently being a very sad little dude, seeing that Rissa is captured by the kzpatl, and therefore likely dead.

Erissa is Enya’s childhood rival for Icky’s heart; very attractive by phytel standards and also incredibly forceful/dominant. She eventually becomes engaged to Patrick, but is captured by kzpatl.

Finfi Matishro was always a sort of… grumpy/scary phytel. Well, not really; he’s just quiet and always has an unapproachable look on his face. He casually began pursuing Enya as a mate, as they were about the same age, but then poof! She vanished. He found it rather annoying, but eh, people said she was a weirdo and she proved it. Good thing she just left, probably. Not quite the charmer, Finfi still hasn’t married and, like any normal phytel would be, is a bit worried about this.

Konita is an outcast in phytel society, banished from groups because of her frivolous use of fire. She doesn’t mind though, oddly for a phytel. She never feels alone when all by herself though, believing the thing she is shunned for brings her closer to the gods. She never married and is now well past 25, the “absolute latest” phytels get married. She’s peaceful, nonconfrontational, and will kindly tell anyone that will listen the benefits of using fire in this way. She’s not pushy, but she does encourage others to try it. Of course, no one is willing to listen to her hogwash ‘cause she’s craaaazy. She doesn’t mind these connotations though; she’s not bent on forcing her ideas on anyone, nor does she care terribly about having company. Enya was the only one who ever really listened to her. As a young, conflicted, and lonely child, Enya sought to find the answers to her problems with any kind of solution. She didn’t toke up with Konita, but she did follow some of her other advice, eventually leading to her departure from Protae.

Alex is Enya’s mother. She’s more serious than Carmelo, though she’s not stiff or anything.

Carmelo is Enya’s father. He’s a pretty average dude; a little silly and a bit jumpy, but not a wuss. He’s more affectionate than Alex, so he had a slightly closer bond with Enya.

Patrick’s parents have been BFF with Enya’s parents for a long while. They traveled with Enya’s Saudi party when she was young.

Abriia is Erissa’s BFF. She’s very dominant and doesn’t like to be challenged, hence why she eventually becomes mates with Libranch. Enya finds her to be exceptionally annoying.

Libranch is Abriia’s bo. He’s a nervous pansy and gets pushed around a lot.

Curio is an average phieri dude with goopy yellow hair.

Zefur is a buff phieri dude with a lot of FAYSHUL HAIR.

Cyanide - Bell - Khaiu - Mew - Sandy - Nose - Neon - Frankie's mom

Cyanide is Torid’s pet “chupacabra” from when Tor was crazy. When Tor moved into her room at Frankie’s and started adorning it creepy as it was, certain creatures started making it their home as well. Cyanide was a particularly social freak in the bunch, and would often demand Tor’s attention. She is creepy as hell looking and her mannerisms, even if innocent, also seem freaky as crap. She likes to smile and wiggle her fingers at things, which is being “cute” to her, but scaaarrry to anything else. Frankie, who started hanging out with the people living in that section of the house, named her Cyanide and it’s stuck. Once Tor became less crazy, she started calling her Cyan though, because it sounded less… Dreadful.

Bell is Tor and Horne’s pet lesser gete. Tor, for some reason I forget, got her while the both of them were back on Caseatrix briefly, and was all “OMG LET’S KEEP HER PLZ? 0u0” And they did. She is now a very luffed kitteh in the family, and demands a lot of attention.

Khaiu is Tor’s sister.

Mew was Frankie’s BFF through highschool.

Sandy was Frankie’s crush in highschool. His family supported oppression of furries, so he viewed Frankie as a lesser, an animal freak thing. The day the war broke out, he put a qollar on her.

Nose was Mew’s crush, and eventual boyfriend, in highschool.

Neon was an ashi from Ij. She was a genocidal scientist and wanted to perfect things. While searching for yet another planet to “perfect,” Caseatrix grabbed her and sucked her in, making her crash on his surface. She was unable to rebuild her ship and lived as a recluse in the city of Ableosis. She went increasingly mad over the years, unable to escape the annoying planet, unable to perfect, unable to take care of herself. She labeled important projects with numbers and the corresponding atomic element with it. In one experiment, she successfully made an infant that was a clone of herself. This happened to be experiment 87, so she labeled it Francium. Like other experiments she didn’t really care about, she discarded this one, throwing it in the dumpster near where she lived.

Frankie’s adoptive mother found the helpless child, labeled with “Fr87, Francium” in the dumpster and took her home. She and her husband adopted Frankie since they couldn’t have their own children.

Fur - Fish - Neosnap - Orxon - Dirk - Potpourri - Chuckity Jimcash - Pluto & Charon - Chizzle - Chewy - Thef - Mortikus

Furkerraukerrerkerraukerreekerraukerroo is Quan's pet sock fish. She got him from a breeder a while ago and has had him ever since. She always wanted a low maintenence pet and sock fish are just perfect little things~

Fish is the warrior spirit in Javelin’s weapon. She’s VIOLENT and sort of crazy. Jav is terrified of her because she WANTS TO KILL PEOPLE YEAAAAH >8D.

Neosnap is the warrior spirit in Jian’s weapon. He’s probably the worst weapon ever, seeing that he freezes and becomes completely useless when he’s scared. He’s scared very easily.

Orxon is the warrior spirit in Mine’s weapon. He’s very competitive and sort of violent, but only when in battle. Outside of mortal conflict, he’s a very calm and balanced dude.

Dirk is the warrior spirit in Eku‘s weapon. His personality changes depending on whether he’s in poof form or regular form. Normally, he’s very laid back and quiet, but in poof form he’s a rather silly. He thinks he should ‘act the part’ when in poof form since it looks so goofy even if he’s trying to be srs.

Potpourri is the warrior spirit in Ziegen‘s weapon.

Chuckity Jimcash is the warrior spirit in Dagger‘s weapon. He’s uber gay and silly.

Pluto & Charon are Mol's elbamorphs.

Chizzle is the warrior spirit in Kukri‘s weapon. She’s illiterate and sort of dumb, but well meaning.

Chewy is the warrior spirit in Axe‘s weapon.

Thef is the warrior spirit in Ruido‘s weapon. He’s extremely loyal to Ruido.

Mortikus is Simon’s RP character. He’s a polite dragon warrior that always exits through a portal in the bathroom (at home).

RD - Squid - Dusty - Susu - Papa Hormigo - Army - Lurk - Zhy's lusus - Dyla's lusus - Ceph's lusus - Tark's lusus - Earth - Auir - Char

Raepdolphin, or RD is Franky’s not-actual-lusus. RD is extreeeemely energetic and always wants to sail about Alternia, preferably with Franky on his back, making baby lususes and helping his little Franky find “love” too. He gets upset when Franky doesn’t want to go out (which is more often than you’d think) and will leave by himself to be a freak, often getting in trouble. He isn’t very bright at times, often getting beat up when he chooses a lusus that’s stronger than him to “woo.” He usually goes after different lususes, but also makes sure to give special attention to Franky’s friend’s lususes. Usually he just teases and torments them though; the exception being Ix’s lusus.

Squid is Franky’s actual lusus. Squid and Franky had only just started building Franky’s house when a crazy-arse dolphin lusus attacked and tried to eat him. Squid got away, but was like FFFFF because he became separated from Franky. FAIL NEW PARENT. The dolphin was kind of just like “lol, actually, might as well be a da while I’m here 8D *thiefs Franky*” even though their blood types don’t match up. RD is kind of an idiot, so. Squid still tries to get Franky back and often fights with RD for parenting rights. RD is a big oaf though, so Squid always loses.

Dusty is Ixiden’s goat lusus. Ix and Dusty don’t actually get along most of the time. Ix doesn’t let Dusty in the house half of the time because he still doesn’t trust Dusty not to trample his mushrooms. Ever since that one time… >8| Even so, they still look out after each other and Ix often has to go punch some dolphin’s face in for attacking poor Dusty.

Susu is Sullie’s lusus. She was very protective of her when she was younger, but now she wanders about on his own a lot. Since Sullie moved into the city, there isn’t a whole lot of room for a huge thing like her. She also hates the noise, so she hangs out in the nearest forest area, visiting Sullie for a bit at a time.

Papa Hormigo is Dyspro’s anteater lusus. Like Dsypro, he’s full of RAEG and hates you all. However, he keeps it bottled up and mostly just sleeps all the time, having RAEGFUL dreams that cause him to twitch in his sleep. They kind of live in the middle of nowhere, their only “neighbor” being Oberon, so there aren’t many others to take out this RAEG on. Instead, Hormigo usually kills animals and leaves them on Dyspro’s doorstep, fueling Dyspro’s RAEG as well.

Army is Cocalo’s armadillo lusus. He’s scared of everything, almost permanently curled up in a ball. He pretty much only uncurls to eat, though he also does if Cocalo coaxes him out. How he was brave enough to even go get a grub in the first place is a mystery.

Lurk is Morden’s sea urchin lusus. He never seems to have any emotion, B| -ing constantly, looking quite a bit like his owner, sans the actual sunglasses. He has bitty little feet that allow him to scuttle about, but he usually is content to just sit around, making that face. His quills contain powerful toxins, much like the ones Morden uses, so it would be a horrible idea to touch him.

Zhygon's lusus

Dylatu's lusus

Cephea's lusus

Tarkus's lusus

Earth is Riflee's bull lusus.

Auir is Zealoa's bengalaas lusus.

Char is Neural's mutalisk lusus.

Momma Spider - Sue & Ernie - Fisher & Mejjie - Luiza - Avera - Mooboru - Warlock - Thug

Momma Spider is rbd’s adoptive mother, who raised her since she was a wee enderling. She’s not exactly the most affectionate mother one could ask for, but she brought rbd up to be self-sufficient. Despite these things, rbd loves to visit her mother, redecorating her cave with wool on every visit. Mom has all but given up on dropping hints that she just wants to be left alone. Nom always had planned on eating Curt when rbd forgot about him, but rbd never did, much to her ire. To this day, she still hasn’t relinquished the thought, but tends to make use of Curt’s fear of her rather than just getting a little snack.

Sue and Ernie are the more fierce and competent of Jazz's dogs, stationed to guard the bridge that leads to her island home. They generally do quite well, and are rewarded with a steady supply of meat.

Fisher and Mejjie... Are pretty much useless. Jazz refers to them as her sheepdogs since she keeps them out back, but they do a shoddy job at protecting the sheep from a certain enderman. They’re much more lovable than the other two though, their “true job” being snuggle buddies for Jazz. They’re very, very good at this aspect of their job.

Luiza is Anne’s pet… dog-cat-whatever-the-heck. She doesn’t really know what Luiza is, but doesn’t really care- the loyal little whatchamacallit sticks by her and keeps her company on her journeys, something she’s most grateful for. It is assumed that Luiza died at the same time as her master.

Avera

Mooboru

Warlock

Thug

Embrace - Trixy - Caseatrix - Maris - Ij - Krajin

Embrace is a sad little V2 virus, infected with some sort of disease. The disease kills other viruses/antiviruses, but it just makes her constantly sick. As not to bump off everyone she’s around, she wears a series of tubes that filter her ‘air’ and prevent her disease from spreading.

Trixy is Nook’s pet cat. He inherited her from his mother after her death, so he takes care of her, even though he dislikes cats and Trixy’s annoying as FRAK.

Caseatrix is a planet made of chees. And magic. And magic chees. He’s silly, gay, and loves to establish connections to other planets via dreamcave. Omgomg, also! He ttly loves gathering shinies to decorate himself with! New species, plants, elements, rocks, and such.

Maris is a grump. He hates Ij because Ij is always TRYING TO MAKE HIM CONFORM. Dammit, he doesn’t want to be part of your group! >:K

Ij has multiple personality disorder. He has 3409 different personalities. Thankfully, most of them are nearly identical, so you can’t really tell. And he’s not trying to make Maris conform, hones- YOU WILL JOIN US M- no really, he’s not! Promise! He will join us, one day.

Krajin is a planet made primarily of energy and little solid mass. He's very solitary and quiet, leaving his frollock/mosquito inhabitants to run amok.

Eaihl Plot

Well, the main problem in the current plot revolves generally around 2 characters, Muerte and Alzon. I was messing with ages and stuff today, and came up with that, in this newer, more refined version, they crashed there 19 years ago. The ship had a lot of people on board, and the section that somehow got shot into the sewers area was the nursery/kid part, so it was 99% kids as young as only a few months old, up to about 12. There were like... maybe 6 adults total. So. That's why everyone's around their twenties now, and everyone 18 and younger was born there. The adults at the time of the crash were Leah, Sean, Skadu, Bermuda, and 2 other people that don't matter, but were Almond's parents. Well... I guess Almond's parents don't have to be adults, but maybe were older kids. Almond's parents don't have to be anyone important is what I was saying. They can even be dead or summat. XD;

Anyways, back to the plot. Bermuda was pregnant when they left Maris, but didn't know it. She had a boyfriend who broke up with her when he found out she was a werecat, so she went with the others to hopefully find happiness with similar people. When they crashed, she was 19, Skadu was 21, Leah was 28, and Sean was 31. Being the oldest, and naturally leaderlike, Sean was the leader at first, with Leah at his side. She wasn't his mate or anything, but really tough and able to handle any sort of situation. They actually didn't get along most of the time, but eventually fell in luff. At some point, they had Muerte, and not long after, they died. o3o Also, Skadu kinda... Well, he was always a really tough guy, but got weak for Bermuda, and supported her during her pregnancy. They sort of got together and that was about the only time Skadu was ever happy. She disappeared when she was long pregnant, and never came back. Sean, Skadu, Leah, and Soft (the oldest kid at the time, 12) went out looking for her, but never found anything but... A baby. This was Sorex. Skadu wanted to raise him, but couldn't bear it in his heartbreak. You think it might make him somehow happy to raise her kit, but it just made him freaking depressed, so Sean and Leah did. They never saw Bermuda again. About 6 years after that, they found this kid that looked freakily similar to Sorex in the sewers. They didn't know where the hell he came from, but couldn't LEAVE him out there. They named him Alzon. NOW... For the plotness. BD

Okay, Sorex is 100% Bermuda's kit. Alzon, however... he's only somewhat so. Remember those slime beast things? Well, they had captured Bermuda and... Well, either she was having twins and they thiefed one, or they somehow spliced her with a slime thing to make Alzon. Either way, he's a hybrid. If he was actually Sorex's twin, they did stuff to him throughout his childhood to make him half slime-thing. So. Alzon is actually a spy for the slime things, living among them and making sure they're not harming or trying to harm the slime-things.

And in the veeery original plot... The focus was around Muerte, son of Leah and Sean, who sadly died in some tragic incedent with the slime things- So, no one liked Muerte because Skadu, the now leader, didn't like him. He was very, very bitter towards Sean and Leah for having each other while Bermuda died, and for raising Sorex... Because he really WANTED to raise Sor, and would have forced himself to, but Sean and Leah, oh, they were ALWAYS butting in to help. How dare them. He never did like Sean especially. Thought he was a silly nerd-

And Sean WAS rather nerdy... But a born leader. As was tough Skadu, so they butt heads a lot. Sean always won though because Leah usually agreed with him and he was older. And since Skadu disliked Muerte and made it known publicly, no one else liked him either. Skadu is mostly protective of Raven now, and has been since she hit 19 years old, the age Bermuda was. He scares guys away from her, because he's weirded out that if she gets pregnant, she'll get captured. Because Leah randomly disappeared the day Muerte was born and they found her in the swamp too, but they found HER and she was okay. She didn't know why she had went out there. Couldn't even recall. No one else really dared to get preggie after that, cept Almond's parents apparently. Alright. And in the old plot, the story actually got up to where Muerte followed Alzon one night and saw him meet with a slime thing, and transform to a half slime thing. Then a bunch of other stuff happened, and when Alzon was found out (not by Muerte ratting, but SOREX ratting! O: Although, it could also be Soft ratting. Sorex and Soft's positions could replace the guy that ratted in the original story's position, if you know what I mean), so then Skadu comes in, shoots him in the foot, and he bleeds GREEN. So Skadu's gonna beat the sheet out of him and... BD I'm not telling. The plot will prolly change anyways. :3

---Characters---
*= no longer a char, someone else’s char, ect
~= main char
DUNNO ABOUT AGES

Almond, M-8, ribbon fox: He’s a cute little goob that is Muerte’s only friend. Thinks Kwink is cute.

~Alzon, M-18, ?: A rather quiet kid, and very well respected. He's kind, polite, and humble, not rubbing Skadu's favoritism in anyone's face like Sorex. He's also strong, quick-thinking, and annoys the crap out of Sorex for being the "good one", but they actually get along when they're around each other. And of course, he's the spy and reports to the slime things every so often.

Ariphazod*, F-25, bulky dragon: She's an oddball. Obsessed with going out in the sewers and playing with the fish that live there. She wears fishnets and a bathing suit nearly all the time, making girls jealous and guys.... Uh... Yeah. She's kinda hot. xD She's a little dumb though.

Bermuda, F-dead, fox thing: Description in the intro.

Boldan*, F-20, dog: Cheerful little thing. CHANGE PLZ.

Folly, M-28, "baby" deer: Slightly clumsy, and seems to have chronic misfortune. Never anything really bad, but he's always getting pranks played on him and just little bad things, like falling in a huge puddle of muck every other day. Often made fun of, and he goes along with it, even though it secretly bothers him.

Kwink, F-8, napkin kitten: She’s freakishly adorable and sweet. Hangs out with Muerte sometimes.

Leah, F-dead, kitty: Tough, stubborn, and somewhat close-minded. She does what she's thinks is best, and doesn't like to compromise; just do it.

Litto Love, F-27, sparkledog: Like her name, she's super lovey dovey and always tries to make sure everyone's happy. She loves kids and probably spends a lot of time with Almond/Kwink/Zonkers.

Mica, F-19, freaky mutant... thing: Very creepy and sneaky. She likes to voice her opinion a lot, but no one really gets along with her. She hangs out with a few people, but doesn't really have anyone that can stand her enough to call her a friend. Like she cares though.

~Muerte, M-16, fluffy bat-derva thing: Disliked by EVERYONE except the children, mostly. He's often sent on dangerous missions that Skadu hopes he won't return from. Very clingy and sad, though he has no one to cling to, so he’s even more sad. He crushes on Mica and Spryn.

Panzer, F-20, white tiger. Panzer is the only one from Maris that is actually an animal, rather than a human. She turned into a human-animal thing when they crashed on the planet and no one could really figure out wtf she came from. She’s deformed and kind of retarded since she’s both an inbred white tiger and an animal in a human body.

Peanut, F-19, nowse-cat thing: Likes guns. A lot. She's one of the few girls that's insanely adamant about becoming a guard, and really, really wants to shoot one of those slime-things. Badly. Or at least shoot SOMETHING.

~Photon, M-22, fairy serpent thing: Jerky McJerkface. He sorta kinda hates everyone and just likes to tinker with weapons and such by his lonesome.

Raven, F-29, derva-bear-ish thing: She's rather quiet, preferring to usually sit away from others and read. She doesn't mind going out and having a good time at a party or something though. She can be rather flighty, and shies away from guys for fear of what Skadu might do. She's become rather defiant towards him in her older age though, and wants to get a boyfriend without him attempting to kill them. She's nearly flippin' 30 after all, and not a kit.

Sean: M-dead, tree dragon: Not really physically strong, but strong in tactic and words. He wasn't exactly a scientist, but dabbled with it a little, therefore making him kinda geeky.

~Skadu, M-39, gargoyle-bear thing: Strong, stoic, and very harsh. Dislikes most everyone but people high up like Soft, Swamp, and Sorex. Peanut amuses him with her enthusiasm.

Soft, M-31, winged dog: Tries to be like Skadu as much as he can and pulls off being stoic pretty well most of the time, unless he's out in a casual situation. His friends know he's not as tough as he appears when giving commands. Softie on the inside, like his name suggests.

~Sorex, M-18, ?: He's kind of a jerk really. Likes bossing people around and Skadu usually lets him, though Sorex is usually pissy because Skadu seems to favor Swamp. Spryn’s bo.

~Spryn, F-22, demonic-looking thing: Since she was born, she's had a very strange skin condition that's baffled everyone. To cover up her grotesque, crackly, and discolored skin, she wears thick bandages. *Everywhere*. Also, due to this condition, she is bald. The crack of her... Ah, bewbs, is so bad that it bleeds often, leaving a weird mark on the bandages on her chest. She doesn't put up with ANY crap and would beat the snot out of you if you made fun of her. She's freaking scary looking though, and no one would dare make fun of her anyways... Though, with her condition, she's actually very fragile and gets hurt easily. She never shows signs of weakness though and tries her hardest to be looked at as a powerful individual.

Stinky: M-25, camel <3: He was six at the time of the crash, and was badly hurt during it; cracked his head really good. Due to this, he lost nearly all memory prior, so he doesn't remember Maris at all. He didn't even remember his name. Since no one really knew his name to begin with, they had to come up with something... When he was recovering from his injuries, he'd often act very stupid due to the head injury and bring disgusting things back to his caretaker, and try to give a gift. He also always smelled rank for going out and looking for these things. oO So. He got the name Stinky, and it stuck. People no longer use it in a mean way though; it's just his name. xD

Tizne*, M-29, hound: Serious and calm. CHANGE PLZ

Trouble*, F-21, raptor bird thing: Very fiesty and pretty much the opposite of Tizne because she's NEVER serious. Always joking, being silly, and usually the one playing those pranks on Folly. She can be randomly serious though, which usually weirds people out.

Tuka, F-29, plant thing: Sweet, mute, and never frowning. She was 10 at the crash and helped take care of a lot of the younger kids. She's well liked and knows it, but is very humble.

Zonkers, M-10, fluffy dog: Unlike the other kids, he’s kind of a jerk. He wants to be like Sorex so he mimics him and is thus the only kid that treats Muerte like poo. He liiiiekkss Kwink though and hates that Almond hangs out with her more than him.
