╔═══════════════════════════╗“The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing.”

╚═══════════════════════════╝
Calm :: Thoughtful :: Wise :: Tender
Guardian :: Knowledge Seeker :: Nature LoverSy is a calm, polite Plumerian who enjoys spending his time outside enjoying the nature
around him. He is always pleasant and serene, never quick to anger or raise his voice.
Sy prefers to speak in soft tones, and while he can be quick to act when it is needed, he
usually doesn't mind taking the scenic route or stopping to smell the roses. Sy is a very
dependable Plumerian, and his friends always know they can rely on him. Whenever
there is trouble, Sy is the first they come to find because he always knows what to do.
His friends never worry about him telling anyone their secrets because he is so very
trustworthy. For this reason, they often tell him secrets and ask for his advice because
he always seems to know what is best. He is good at solving problems, and has a very
kind heart. Sy is always available to help his friends, whatever they may need.
Sy enjoys reading, listening and learning. He is very thoughtful, and is content to spend
much of his time thinking, puzzling, imagining and dreaming. He is very insightful, and
always seems to know the answer not matter what the question. Whenever he doesn't
know the answer, he is always keen to work it out. Sy loves to learn new things, and
enjoys spending his time seeking out knowledge of all sorts of interesting things. Never
a selfish Plumerian, Sy readily shares his wisdom and thoughts with others keen to listen.
One of Sy's favourite activities is tending to his garden. His garden isn't just a collection
of plants to Sy, it is a magical world full of joyful life. Trees, vines, flowers and greenery
of all different kinds grow strong, tall and lush under the gentle care of Syphadias, and
amongst the plants live many joyful creatures. Sy loves animals and plants alike, and has
a great respect for life. He does whatever he can to make sure that all of the living things
in his garden are both happy and healthy. A gentle and caring creature, Sy would never
dream of hurting anyone, although as a rather tall Plumerian he is always successful in
defending his garden friends from anything that may challenge them. Whenever he senses
danger is near, Sy hides his animal friends until the threat has passed, but he knows that
if they are ever found, there is nothing he won't do to protect them from their aggressor.

Sy is a very dashing Plumerian, with a warm chocolate coat speckled with many light spring
green markings that fade at the edges, giving them a glowing feel. His eyes and feathers
are a sharp cyan blue, with shades ranging from dark teal to an icy white tinged with aqua.
Sy is relatively tall for a Plumerian, though not particularly lanky as he bears the studiness
of a hardworking creature who spends their day engaged in many adventurous activities.
His constant exercise keeps him in good shape, and he has a healthy glow due to many
years of taking good care of himself. He always makes sure he has enough to eat and
sufficient time to get a good night's sleep. He always make sure to keep himself clean.
══════════════════════════════
Unsurprising due to his obvious love for
nature and all things that live and grow,
Sy frequently decorates himself with
leaves and foliage. On special occasions
he also likes to wear a few flowers, but
generally he sticks to shiny green leaves.
Not only are his leaves fashionable, but
they serve to hide the fact that during
his day to day life, he often finds himself
brushing against or entangled amongst
various foliage that will stick to his coat.
Sy owns a rather mystical looking lantern
that he always carries around with him.
Living deep in the rainforest, the sun does
not always make its way past the thick
canopy above, and for this reason Sy feels
that carrying light with him is a good idea.

Sy has a few notable features that set him
apart from many other Plumerians. The first
are his long, winding horns that strongly
resemble solid tree branches. Dark brown in
colour, they started as small knobs on his head
and gradually grew long and sturdy as he aged.
As an adult, his horns are a most impressive
set of antlers that he frequently decorates with
various leaves and other foliage he finds.
Like other Plumerians, Sy boasts a number of
rather stunning feathers that match his eyes.
Cyan in colour, they bear many darker stripes
overlayed with light spots and white-tipped
edges that have an icy sheen to them. Sy very
much likes his feathers, and proudly shows
them off to whomever comments on them.
Wings are a rather unusual feature for a
Plumerian to have, but Sy has been gifted
with a small pair of magnificent white wings.
While too small to carry his weight in flight,
Sy does find them useful for helping him glide
should he wish to jump down from a small
height, and they also help him to jump higher
than he would otherwise be able to.

Sy loves to tend his garden. His favourite plants
to grow are passiflora, or passion flowers. Passion
flowers come in many different types and colours,
and Sy loves them all. He also likes to grow other
flowers, leafy plants, shrubs, vines, trees and
vegetables. Growing his own fruits and vegetables
provides him with plenty to eat and share with his
many forest friends.
Whenever he gets the chance, Sy likes to head
out on adventures to explore the forest and search
for new types of plants and flowers that he can
bring back to grow in his own garden. He carefully
extracts pieces of plants and fallen seeds to plant
in his garden and hope that it grows. His favourite
thing to find is a new colour of passion flower that
he doesn't already have in his garden.
The more he fills up his garden however, the harder
it is to find new passion flower types or colours that
he doesn't already have. Brazil is full of many exotic
flowers and plants though, so Sy never has to wander
far to find new plants to try and grow in his garden.
Tending his garden is one of Sy's favourite activities.
Every morning he checks on all of his trees and plants,
and makes sure they have enough water and sunlight.
He also checks on his little forest friends to make sure
they are alright as well. Sy understands that everything
in the forest relies on each other to thrive.
Sy has many wonderful friends who live in
his garden. One of his best friends is Sprite,
a colourful Violet Woodcapped Nymph. Sprite
is a type of hummingbird, and his favourite
activities include flittering between plants,
admiring flowers, and helping Sy tend to the
garden where he lives. Sprite also likes to
accompany Sy on his adventures, and often
scouts ahead in search of new plants to
bring back to the garden they share.
The other friends who share Sy's garden are
the local bumblebees. The bees don't usually
leave the garden, but they always greet Sy
when he returns from one of his adventures.
Sy's bee friends are the queen bee Queenie
and her lovable trio Brighton, Tiny and
Bumbles. Brighton is a very cheery bee who
loves to hear stories of grand adventures.
Brighton is the only bee to have ventured
outside the garden with Sy and Sprite.
Tiny is the smallest and lightest coloured of
the bees, and also the most shy. He dislikes
being alone, so is never found far from his
other bee friends. Tiny is quiet but kind.
Bumbles is the darkest of the bees. He loves
to eat, sleep and buzz around with his bee
friends. Bumbles is helpful and dependable,
although he can be a bit forgetful at times.
· · · тнe тιny ѕeed dreaмѕ oғ wнaт тнe ғυтυre нoldѕ · · ·══════════════════════════════Sy's story begins when he was only a little one. His fondest memories are of his parents and
the beautiful gardens they grew. He always dreamed of tending many flowers and plants when
he grew older, just like they did. Many of his days were filled with playing amongst the plants,
enjoying both the pockets of sunshine and the cool shade beneath the trees, and waiting most
impatiently for magnificent flowers to bloom. At night, Sy's parents would tell him stories to
lull him to sleep. His favourite tale was that of a magical kingdom where the princess grew
many lovely flowers, just like his parents did.
....
......................
in a land quite far away
There stood a magic castle
In which many flowers lay
The butterflies did love them
Growing so strong and tall
The frog did love them also
As he sat beneath them all
But one day there was trouble
As a dragon flew quite near
And with one great unlucky sneeze
All the flowers did disappear
Everyone was very sad
Their flowers were no more
But one princess was not upset
For she had a trick in store
With one wave of her magic wand
All of the flowers reappeared
The beautiful garden was now restored
And everyone in the castle cheeredLittle Sy loved the story as it was filled with tales of animals and magic. His favourite part
was when the princess grew all the flowers again with a simple wave of her wand. While Sy
loved to garden with his parents, he was sometimes frustrated that the plants and flowers
would not grow faster. It took much water, sunshine and patience to grow beautiful plants.
══════════════════════════════
❧ ❧ ❧ wιтн a lιттle waтer and ѕυnlιgнт, тнe ѕproυт eмergeѕ ❧ ❧ ❧══════════════════════════════When Sy grew a bit older, he was able to start helping his parents in the gardens they so
lovingly tended. Sy would help ensure they had enough sunlight, water and soil, and that
each new seed was planted far enough away that the fully grown plant would not hurt its
neighbours. If a plant grew too large close to smaller plants, its shade would starve them
of sunlight. If too many plants were too close together, there would not be enough water
to share around and some would grow thirsty. Sy was a keen learner, and always made
sure to take note of how large a plant would grow and how much water and sunlight it
needed to thrive. To help him remember the various plants he learnt about, Sy liked to
draw them in his sketchbook. As a child, his favourite plants were the colourful flowers.
As an adult, Sy would learn to love the magestic trees, the delicate ferns, vines, shrubs
and other leafy plants just as much as the fragrant flowers he adored as a youngster.
══════════════════════════════
✿ ✿ ✿ ιт мυѕт вe мagιc тнaт caυѕeѕ тнe ғlower тo тнrιve ✿ ✿ ✿══════════════════════════════Sy remembers when he first set out to find a home for himself, one with a beautiful
garden filled with plants of all shapes, sizes, colours and scents. He found such a home
in beautiful glade near a small stream. The soil was soft, water was near and the canopy
above provided shade from the harsh midday sun. The only problem with Sy's new home
was the lack of flowers and plants. Little grew in the patch of dirt, and choking weeds
ensure that anything that tried would shrivel and die. But Sy new all about tending to
plants, and with a bit of tender loving care, the gentle Plumerian cultured a beautiful
garden. He moved rich soil from near the stream into his garden to give the plants a
better chance at life, and cleared out all the weeds. He brought water from the stream
as needed, and to provide extra light for the plants eternally shadowed by the trees
above, he held up his lantern to let its warm rays bathe the new seedlings and sprouts.
Sy used his experience, knowledge and caring paws to grow a lush and glorious garden.
To the little animals that lived nearby, Sy was nothing short of a legend, a wielder of
magic who waved his lantern and caused flowers to burst from the soil, vines to reach
out and climb the majestic trees, and faded, wilted plants to grow strong, lush and
green. When hearing these fanciful tales, Sy would chuckle in amusement, but deep
down he enjoyed the fantasy that he could be like the princess from his childhood story,
who grew back her entire garden of flowers with the simple wave of her magic wand.

I have been interested in Plumerians since I first saw them, but for some reason I
didn't try out for any until very recently. I am pretty picky about which characters I
try out for because I like to spend a lot of time working on my form, learning how
to code them up nicely, trying new things artistically and trying to develop unique,
interesting characters that I hope stand out amongst the many other great forms.
I am currently a non-owner, and would be ecstatic if Syphadias became my very
first Plumerian, and the first of many that I apply for in the future. I would love
to become involved in the Plumerian community, I think they are a truly unique
and adorable species. I tried to make my form as visual as possible, and apart
from the divider images which I found online, I personally made each graphic for
this post specifically to support my form. Some pieces I made from scratch while
others I made using stock images and scrapbook kits that I thought would suit
Sy's personality and story well. I hope that I have been able to communicate my
vision for this magnificent Plumerian, and that everyone who has stopped to
read Sy's story enjoys it as much as I enjoyed crafting it. Thank you all who have
read my form, and a big thank you to Charchar2 for creating his wonderful boy.
