Cyrrane


Here I will write all about Cyrrane, all the posts I have written and stories about the characters.

Image


Cyrrane- a place where the unnatural meet the normal. Most people living in this village are humans, but some are not. Wood elves, great but mysterious warriors, live in the woods below the village and sometimes join them. Rarely, dwarves also come out from their mountains to live in the small village, and hobbits are a rare sight too. Those special creatures living in the village makes it that Cyrrian people (the villagers of Cyrrane) usually have a great acceptance to other looks, races and ideas.

Cyrrane is located on a high plateau of the Blyhonn mountain. A slope leads down on the east to the valley below, where the thick Wyst forest is. The west is a cliff, and below that cliff lies a big lake, the Ahl. A river of the same name flows from the far north towards them and finishes its course in the lake. To the south is more forest. At the top of the plateau, where the village is, there are barely any trees. Instead, small bushes and areas of bare earth make up most the ground.

The Wyst is populated by many animals. Birds of all sizes, as well as mammals like boars, deers, foxes and squirrels live there. It is rare, but there are a few berry bushes and fruit trees down in the less thick areas of the forest as well. At the top, the few patches of earth are good to be planted with seeds. The lake Ahl is also filled with all sorts of fish.

Myriam Sheherezad

Postby Arya22 » Sat Dec 09, 2017 10:29 pm

Image
Myriam Sheherezad
Rank: Head Chief
Looks: ST-D7 / HC-5 / HS-HW / EC-A6 / X
Race: Human

Personality: Myriam is usually very cheerful. She always
smiles and laughs, and likes to tease others. In truth, she loves
everyone in Cyrrane like her own children and is very protective
about them. She does tend to be a little.. Too selfless when
taking care of others, and it has led her to getting herself in
situations where she really wasn't in a good shape.


History before Cyrrane: Myriam used to live in a small village
in a hot desert, with her parents. One summer there was a terrible
drought. A lot of villagers died, and the rest decided to leave. It was
too dangerous. The handful of villagers set off across the desert,
knowing they had to find a place with water soon. One night a
desert lion attacked and due to the villagers being very weak, they
had trouble killing it. Myriams father was killed and her mother
seriously injured. She died of her injuries a while later, leaving
Myriam alone.

Many days later the very small group finally found a river. They lived
there for a while, but the villagers started arguing. The fights got
very bad, and after a while they disbanded. Myriam was alone.
She wandered in the forests of Wyst for a while, and slowly she got
better. One night, she got a dream. And that is how Cyrrane started.

Aaron Crawford

Postby Arya22 » Sun Dec 10, 2017 10:08 pm

Image
Aaron Crawford
Rank: Hunting Chief
Looks: ST-C3 / HC-53 / HS-S / EC-D7 / X
Race: Human

Personality: Aaron likes to think of himself as strong
and courageous. In fact, others see him more like a
big, fluffy bear. He is very kind, sometimes a little
shy, but he has everyone's best interests at heart.
Regarding his skills, he definitely is a very good
hunter, a downside might be he tends to be
forgetful.


History before Cyrrane: Aaron used to live in
a small village to the far south of Cyrrane. He
was not particularly well liked in the village, since
his father had been a voyager of another village,
and his mother died in childbirth. They hadn't
been married. Despite that, Aaron was a good
hunter and slowly rose in the others esteem.
One day a bear attacked hunters while they
were out in the day. A week later he started
again. Worried for his villages safety, Aaron
went out to hunt the bear. But he went too
far, and eventually got lost. During the night
the bear had turned around and now hunted
the hunter. Forced to flee, Aaron became
even more lost. He did not have any more
water with him for many days until Myriam
eventually found and saved him.


Family: Aaron is married to Hilda Bronzemane,
and had a daughter with her: Talyn.

Zaos Faelen

Postby Arya22 » Thu Jan 04, 2018 10:05 am

Image
Zaos Faelen
Rank: Warrior Chief
Looks: ST-E3 / HC-1 / HS-LC / EC-A6 / X
Race: Elf

Personality: Zaos is a pureblooded elf- and likes to remind
others of that. He is usually condescending upon humans and
'lesser races' like hobbits and dwarves. For the latters, he will
even act with scorn towards them. He is very proud, some of
a show-off and often irritable. The only person able to see his
other, loving side is his wife, the gentle and kind Laedrya
Faelen.


History before Cyrrane: Despite his fancy and show-off
airs, Zaos is not well-considered in the elven world. He
used to be part of the Solis tribe, made of fair-skinned
and dark-haired elves. The chiefs son, he had all
advantages and everyone looked up at him. He was
proud, smart, strong, a great warrior. But all this fell
apart when his tribe went to fight the Lunar tribe, their
enemies since many generations. On that raid, Zaos
caught a glimpse of a fleeing face, dark-skinned but with
long, golden hair. She was the Lunar chiefs daughter,
and all should bring them against each other, but in that
second Zaos saw her, a surge of surprise, admiration and...
Love rose up in him.

Since that day, he was never the same at home. He had
become thoroughly bitter with his family, questioning things
he had never asked about before. One day, another raid on
the Lunar was planned. Zaos first refused to take part, but
when his father confronted him about it, demanding to know
why, Zaos gave in and joined. That day, while he was someplace
else, his father managed to catch the Lunar chiefs daughter.
He wanted to sacrifice her to the sun, to show the Lunar tribe
they were stronger.

But before the sacrifice, Zaos burst in and ran to her. In front
of his whole tribe, he set her free and fled with her, under the
yells of rage from his father. He was dishonored. Laedrya, it
turned out, had also secretly fallen in love with her from the
moment she had seen his face, in the flickering light of the fires
from her village. Despite him being happy of being with the woman
he loved, Zaos was bitter. He had lost his village, his family,
his honor and the joy of being a chiefs son. All his fault.


Family: Zaos is married to Laedrya, and has adopted
two young elves that were found one day, the twins
Arun and Rhys. He had a daughter with Laedrya, Lyra.

Laedrya Faelen

Postby Arya22 » Thu Jan 04, 2018 10:08 am

Image
Laedrya Faelen
Rank: Gatherer
Looks: ST-A11 / HC-24 / HS-LC / EC-D7 / X
Race: Elf

Personality: Laedrya is a very quiet woman. She tries- and
succeeds- to always stay in the background. She doesn't like being
looked at, it scares her. But despite all that, she knows very well
how to behave around other people, and she can easily make people
do or understand what she wants them to. Most people will describe
her as shy, yet very smart and mysterious.


History before Cyrrane: Laedrya used to live in an elven tribe,
the Lunar. She was the tribes daughter, and thus many looked up at
her- yet she never liked it, and often preferred to stay at home and
not get looked at. Her tribe was not very aggressive. They were
mostly composed of healers and gardeners. But for generations, her
tribe had been at war with the Solis tribe, an aggressive, proud
tribe. There were three raids from the Solis in Laedrya's lifetime.
The first was when she was a baby. Her mother was killed then.

When she turned 20, the Solis began getting more and more
aggressive. One day they raided the village, and as Laedrya was
taken away for safety, she caught sight of one of the Solis. Like
most, he had raven black hair and deathly pale skin- yet...
Yet he was different for her. After the raid, she started dreaming
about him. He seemed to pop up in her mind at the worst, most
random moments. She couldn't get him out of her mind.

Weeks later, there was a second raid. Trying to somehow
catch a glimpse of him, she stayed behind too long. The Solis
tribe caught her and she was taken to their village, as a sacrifice
to their god, the sun. She was terrified. Her life would end here,
now. Buy before the sacrifice, the elf she had fallen in love with
appeared. In front of his own tribe, he untied her and fled with
her. Zaos, he was named.


Family: Laedrya is married to Zaos and has adopted
two young elves that were found one day, the twins
Arun and Rhys. She also has a daughter with Zaos, Lyra.

Hilda Bronzemane

Postby Arya22 » Thu Jan 04, 2018 10:11 am

Image
Hilda Bronzemane
Rank: Hunter
Looks: ST-D6 / HC-5 / HS-HW / EC-A2 / X
Race: Dwarf

Personality: Loud and prone to happy guffaws, Hilda is definitely
one fun dwarf. She loves making jokes and isn't scared of saying
what she wants, when she wants. Many 'respectable' women could be
shocked by the things Hilda says or does... She doesn't mind (and actually
likes) drinking, fighting, and sometimes even saying rude things. Almost
a boy, basically. She is also a great hunter though, and will become deadly
silent when on a hunt. An ax is not the usual hunting weapon, yet she uses
it perfectly well and has been known to catch boars all by herself.


History before Cyrrane: Hilda used to live in a dwarven village in
the middle of the mountains, between high rock walls. Her mother was
dead from childbirth and Hilda had no sisters. She grew up between men,
like her father, and wished nothing else but be one herself. Alas, she
couldn't.

Hilda was her father's treasure, his pride and joy, and he would have
done anything for her. That is what happened when Hilda turned 27, at
her birthday. A rival dwarf clan decided to attack to try getting to the
mines just under Hildas clan. Hildas clan fought hard, but they were
outnumbered and unprepared. Hilda had gone closer to the deep tunnel
that led straight down to the mines to protect it, but when the enemies
arrived, they were five and she was alone. Nonetheless, she fought hard.

She was alone against the strongest of the five in the end, but she was
injured.The dwarf was about to kill her when her father ran over. He
crashed into the dwarf enemy and both fell down the deep, dark and
steep tunnel. When she had finally climbed down, Hilda saw both had
died from a broken neck.

Traumatized by the thought it was her fault her father had died, Hilda
left her clan and wandered for a long time alone. In the end she was found
by Aaron while he was hunting, and they bonded immediately. She followed
him to the village after hunting with him.


Family: Hilda is married to Aaron Crawford and had a daughter with him: Talyn.

Pantaleon Brown (and Zacharius)

Postby Arya22 » Thu Jan 04, 2018 10:13 am

Image
Pantaleon Brown (and Zacharius)
Rank: Scout
Looks: ST-C5 / HC-23 / HS-S / EC-H7 / X
Race: Hobbit

Personality: Sometimes described as childish, Pantaleon Brown is
not the person you would trust with an important job. Yet- When he
wants to, Panto (as he likes to be called) can be quite serious.
Except he rarely wants to. He's a kind, jolly fellow, likes to eat and
loves a comfortable sofa. It sometimes feels like he could chatter
on for days, and that annoys others.


History before Cyrrane: For as long as he can remember, Pantaleon
was alone- alone with only his squirrel. Truly, his past, his parents,
how he grew up- All of this is a mystery. But what he doesn't know,
I do. And I'll say it.

Pantaleon Brown was born in a family of happy hobbits. They lived
in a small hobbit-hole far from others. Alone. Pantaleon was the
only child, and was cherished by both his parents. But at some point,
when Pantaleon was about eight, his mother expected a new child. A
baby girl. When she was born, it was a time of great joy in the family.
What they did not know was that soon, great misery would fall upon
them.

Pantaleon, one day while playing outside with his pet squirrel,
Zacharius, heard a man's voice crying out for help. Having been taught
to be a kind and helpful boy, Pantaleon went instantly to see who it was
and do see if he could help. He found an old wizard, injured, lying in
the bushes. Hobbits know the earth very well, and Pantaleon quickly
found the right herbs to help the old man. Then, he helped him walk to
his home, where he knee he could rest and get better. His parents, as
good and kind as him, helped the wizard without asking questions. Yet,
what a mistake it turned out to be...

A few days later, there was great stirring in the forest. Creatures
were roaming and causing havoc. When he heard of it, the old wizard
had paled. He murmured. "pray they do not find this house... For your
sake." but sadly, the creatures found them. They had been hunting the
wizard a long time, and were angry at having wasted that long.
Pantaleon and his sister, Makilla, who was only a few months old and
in Pantaleon's arms, were huddled in a corner while the great oak door
shuddered under the creatures pounding. The battle that happened
afterwards was bloody and terrible. Both Pantaleon's parents were
killed, in front of their eyes. Before dying, they both begged the
wizard to save their children. The old wizard had regained his
strength, and fought hard. But he wasn't sure he could win.

So he grabbed the children and fled, as fast and as far as he could.
When he stopped, he did two things. He gave Pantaleon's squirrel
companion a power. The squirrel would stay alive as long as
Pantaleon, and would stay with him forever. To Mikalla he gave a
little necklace, with a stone that would keep sickness and infections
away from the wearer. The last thing he did was at the same time
terrible but kind. He wiped from Pantaleon's memory all about his
family, his past. As far as the boy knew, his life was starting now.
Then, the wizard left to fight the creatures.

Now, I must remind you Pantaleon was only 8 at the time. With no
gruesome memories in his mind, all he wanted to do was explore a
little this new place. Leaving his sister to sleep, he ran off, playing,
with Zacharius. Sadly, eight year old boys are not the best explorers.
He promptly got lost, and since there was no one to call him back...
Pantaleon thus started his life at the age of eight, after running off
to explore. Somehow, he survived alone and now knows everything
there is to know about the forest. He grew up and one day, found a
pretty young lady of his age named Myriam. Feeling lonely, he
joined her.

And the sister, you ask? The wizard miraculously survived his fight.
He came back for the children, but there was only the little girl. He
searched far and wide for the boy, but Pantaleon had vanished into
thin air. The wizard then proceeded to bring up the Mikalla himself.

Joan Helend

Postby Arya22 » Fri Aug 10, 2018 12:03 am

Image
Joan Helend
Rank: Healer
Looks: ST-D11 / HC-11 / HS-HC / EC-E6 / Y
Race: Human

Personality: Joan is very young, and that definitely shows in her
character. She is relatively shy, usually not speaking up unless somebody
asks her first, but when she is used to being around certain people she will
get more confident. People that know her well describe her as bubbly,
cheerful and kind, yet serious when needed. Those that do not know her
would rather say she is quiet and serious.


History before Cyrrane: Born in a family of healers generation
by generation, Joan has been immersed in the trade since a youngest age.
She quickly took a liking to learning new things about plants and potions,
and at the age of 13 she was reputed to be one of the best healers around.
Sadly, while her parents were extremely proud of her, her two siblings, of
ages 17 and 23, were bitterly jealous of her. She was younger than them,
yet got all the fame..

Naive as she was, Joan never noticed the light of anger and revenge
in the eyes of her siblings until that one day, a summer day when she
was 18. At last, green with jealousy at her success, her siblings teamed
up against her to make her disappear in the most natural looking way:
They tried to kill her by luring a bear with cubs towards her.
The plan almost succeeded- Joan still bears a long scar on her shoulder.
But at the last second, she had managed to jump into a fast river. Half
unconscious, injured and cold, she was stranded on the edge of the Ahl
river, not far from where Cyrrane is. It was then that she was found by
Myriam as she came back from asking the ancestors for a healer. She was
accepted immediately.
