Username: Eternal_Flame

Name: Inna



Gender: Female

Personality: Barely one to speak. Quiet. Silent. Some believe she to be without a voice. Others deaf. Really, Inna is neither. She just doesn't like to be loud. So she supposes selectively mute would be the way to go. Usually only one to stay on the quiet side, Inna communicates in gestures, writings and fin movements. Not to mention the expressive ways she moves those ears of hers. Inna is one who appreciates nature to it's fullest, but believes things such as cameras, camping, and really anything not naturally formed to be intrusive, another reason she is so quiet. When Inna goes into the forest and mountains it is with no objective in mind other than to enjoy all that nature has to offer. She has had close encounters with predators but somehow is always a step ahead to avoid them, while anyone less attentive would have surely been harmed. As a result of this lifestyle, she finds civilization to be much too loud and unpredictable as a result, while in nature everything holds a pattern and it is easily recognizable. Often thought of to be feral, and while not completely wrong, Inna holds herself apart from other Vaiki.

An adventure they had: The snow was thick and the air frosted in silence. No birds chirped yet, nothing seemed unordinary. Still you keep watch, keep aim. The river is waiting.

You find a log along the banks, the river pink with the morning sunrise. You push it into the water and climb on before the water makes you both drift away. As the river flows you watch other creatures come along, one by one they reach the banks.

When the mountains begin to grow closer you know you're in for a ride as suddenly the river's waters run faster than before. The rush of the water sprays all around you and you cling tightly to the raft until the very end.

You’re almost there. Finally, you leap and your raft breaks on the river rocks. But you hardly care. A cottage is there, smoke chuffing merrily from the chimney. You smile. You’re home.

Jayflight.
Name:
Sylvestra 'Syl' Sykes
"wood, forest"
Gender:
Female
An adventure they had:
"Ahh? You'd like to hear a tale? Well it'll cost ya, but sure...I was wandering the woods once many years ago,I'd gone pretty far from home, and I came across this creek, you see. I followed the streaming water for a while, I don't really know what it was that pulled me to follow its trail. So I kept at it, trotting by the river bed, and that's when I saw it.It was beautiful, glistening in the sun like a dream. Majestic, even. It was a unicorn, standing calmly in the sunlight.
Don't give me that look!"
She flashes you a crooked grin, and pulls a strand of snow-white hair from her shawl."This here is one hundred percent genuine unicorn fur, and that unicorn in my story was kind enough to let me take some! And at the low price of only 19.99!
What a deal!"
(150/150)

➼ Occupation:
She runs a small shop, 'Sylvestra's Emporium of Oddities', in the woods. She could also be considered a bit of a con-artist due to the fact that just about everything is fake, only a few lingering remnants of the 'real magic' that the previous owner claimed to sell. She inherited it from an older vaiki named 'Maeve' (she always questioned if that was her real name) who taught her the tools of the trade. She cons other vaikis into buying her 'genuine' stock of items. Unlike her master, and despite being surrounded by the 'supernatural', she does not believe a lick of what she preaches, but is a brilliant actor and has had no trouble convincing even the most sceptical.
➼ Personality:
Outlandish ~ Exploitative ~ Acquisitive ~ Lonely ~ Derisive ~ Cynical ~ Witty
Syl is a very strange vaiki, to put it kindly. If she isn't chatting you up for a scam, she doesn't really speak a word. She acts in a very animalistic way, due to spending most of her early life in an isolated area. She eats like any second the food may disappear, and despises sharing. Sylvestra looks down on those she considers weak, and only offers respect to those she considers equal. She is used to being alone, and as much as she would like to deny it, she adores talking and being around others, though she only does it within the parameters of her job. She enjoys a good challenge, and one of her favorite hobbies is disguising her mocking of a customer's naivety with 'interest'. She is a master of manipulation, and is skilled at observing body language. She can also behave in a very predatory manner, approaching things like a cat moves in for a kill. Despite her cynical attitude toward her clients, she does indeed hold a lot of pride for her trade. She can be easily offended, and will put all her effort into converting sceptics. (She will later laugh at the irony, that 'magic' might exist in the hands of a real witch, but her version is entirely poppycock.)
➼ Daily Life:
Sylvestra moved skillfully through the thick underbrush, easily navigating the nearly non-existent pathway. The bags of herbs hanging from her belt swayed with her swift movements. She gave a wry smirk at the colorful, tacky signs stuck up along the way. 'Witch Ahead!' 'Beware of Hoodoo-o-o!' 'Approach at your own risk!', and what creepy wooded route would be complete without the classic 'Turn back now'? The brown vaiki continued on her way, flicking the final 'blood splattered' sign with the messy fin of her tail as a large shack came into view. Trotting up to it, she absent-mindedly observed her reflection in the smudgey window. Several exotic looking beads hung from her neck and tail, a shawl clasped around her thin body by what appeared to be a rodent's skull.
Pulling a small key from her shawl, Sylvestra clicked open the old door, and stepped inside. She flipped the sign on the door to open and skipped over to the counter. Kneeling down, she smiled and plucked up the cardboard box nestled beneath the counter. Picking up her scissors, Sylvestra cut open the crate. She emptied the box and discarded it. A bright grin grew on her face. A beautiful purple headdress sat on the counter, and she again plucked up her scissors, and clipped off the tiny tag labeled 'MADE IN CHINA.' Ahh, she could almost see how her gullible customers would react with this on. Finally her look was complete. Syl situated the hat on her head, and leaned against the counter with a yawn. Time to wait for the prey to wander directly into her domain.
➼ Quirks:
Due to the fact that she grew up nearly feral, and practically raised herself until Maeve took Sylvestra under her wing, this strange vaiki has many quirks. She has a bad habit of pronouncing words wrong, but she covers it up skillfully with faux accent. It annoys her when people point it out, and she tries her best to remember the word correctly with each person who crosses her path. (Because if there's anything Sylvestra hates in the world, it's being mocked.) Although she vehemently convinces herself that none of her items really work, she still wears the beads and shawl Maeve crafted for her in an almost religious manner. She panics if each of her items are not in the right place or she is missing one. It's one of the few things that cause her normally closed off emotions to boil to the surface. Her left ear gets twitchy when she's annoyed, but otherwise she has almost complete control of her body language. She also adores sweet tea and constantly smells of incense. She despises belladonna, having had an unfortunate experience with the stuff in the first years of her apprenticeship.
➼ Fun Facts:
• She has a pet cactus named Gertrude or 'Ger Ger'.
• Two tabby cats like to menace her emporium, she's dubbed them Annoying the First (Noya) and Irritating the Second (Irri)
• White carnations are her favorite flowers.
• She has a fondness for tuxedo kittens.
• Pecans are her favorite snack, and she tends to an old pecan orchard on the edge of her property.
• She might have a teeny tiny addiction to the smell of catnip.
• She HATES bugs, so much so that she still uses Maeve's old bug repellant remedy. It's the only thing she hails for true magic, and sells it as ''Auntie Maeve's Bug Begone Concoction''

An adventure they had:

almost there
body balanced on a thin wire. the death defying trick was coming to a close. the wind was
picking up and the orange and blue eyes focused on the horizon, ignoring the wing as one paw
was placed in front of the other. the crowd 150 feet below was cheering, chanting his name.

one more step
he took one last step his hands slipping on the wire and plummeting towards the ground.
someone creamed below. but the crash never came. arms outstretched a thin sheet spread as
they glided to the ground. no crash came.

applause.
their trick was complete. their high wire act was a failure, yes. but their skydiving act was
flawless. the trampoline or net was never needed. for it was all an act.

an act.
an alarm clock sounded. and their eyes opened.
another dream. yawning they began starting their day.

Username: Quasar-Wolf
Name: Leia
Gender: Female
An adventure they had: 150/150 // Bright lightning dazzled Leia's eyes as she glared unblinkingly out of the cabin of the ship. The crew huddled together in the small space, hoping that they will make it out of this horrible storm. Leia felt so useless down here, while she knew Captain was out there, trying to steer this ship to safety. Thoughts of all the things that could go wrong flooded through her brain. Lightning striking the ship, crashing into something, Captain's death... She couldn't let that happen. She bursted out of the cabin and started sprinting up the stairs toward Captain. Icy rain pierced her fur as she grabbed a hold of the wheel. "Leia!" Captain shouted over the storm, "Get back to the cabin! Now!" She didn't move, "No! I'm not leaving you out here to face this alone! You could die!" "Fine," he sighed, knowing he wouldn't win this argument, "Let's do this."

[not a talking cat]

possible res about him saving a prince?? idk (generic prince saves princess except other way around mayb)

♞♞♞♞♞♞♘♘♘♘♘♘
username:
not a talking cat

name:
Maru

gender:
male

sexuality:
pansexual demi-romantic

♞♘♞

personality:
Seeing how Maru is always excited for a new adventure, he's an optimistic and loving
hero with a love for all genders. Maru is a big risk-taker that doesn't mind getting cut
up and often doesn't care about how badly he gets beat in battle. However, that doesn't
mean he doesn't have self control when it comes to fighting, or anything, really. When
angered, Maru often speaks very formally, using old English language terms (such as
shan't, thou, shalt, thy, thee, thine, ye, the list goes on). Despite being past his child
years, Maru still believes in paranormal activities and mythical creatures such as unicorns
& dragons. He hopes to find some sort of odd creature that isn't known deep in the forest,
just so he can bring it back to the town and prove everyone wrong. He enjoys when things
go his way and will not hesitate to blackmail or knock you down if you get in his way.

occupation:
obviously a homosapien hunter-gatherer

hobby:
collecting the spines of animals.
as odd as it may sound, there's actually many things you can find in the
forest; one particular thing that caught Maru's eye was all the skeletons
of dead, dried up rodents. after seeing them so often, he decided to start
his own collection. not only does it disgust the vaikis his age, it fascinates
the children, which makes him happy knowing that someone appreciates
his hobby.

relationships:

Cognac -- Maru's prince(ss). He's saved the Vaiki from being
trapped in a tower (courtesy of Cognac's father,)
and together (well, it was more Maru carrying around
an annoyed Cognac) they traveled back to the town.
Of course, Maru saving one prince doesn't stop him from
quickly going back to the forest to discover new things.


♞♘♞

an adventure they had: (( shout out to crimoodle for letting me use their cutie patootie, cognac uvu ))
Maru's ears twitched, listening for the screams of the princess as he urged himself to run faster.

Slung around his shoulders was his messenger bag that contained apples, cookies, two rusty
daggers and a grappling hook.

Once his eyes caught sight of the tower, he could see another Vaiki screaming- or was she
singing?- inside, just like in the fairytales.

"She really is stuck in a tower!" He laughed, looking up at the silhouette of the princess.

"Fear not, for I'm here to rescue you, princess!" Maru shouted, watching as the princess
peeked its head out.

"I'm a prince, that's rude!" The Vaiki spat. "A prince...?" Maru repeated, cocking his
head slightly.

"Even better!" Maru called out, earning a scoff. "You can't even get me down! You're
too short." Cognac replied. "Grappling hook," Maru grinned, pulling out
said item. "Step back," he said before preparing to rescue his the prince.
