Draw them as they are now and when they were younger:


- Despite looking cuter as a kit, she was quite the stinker! Althea had her hair down a lot more then, and definitely had different clothes [late-1700s].

Workshop Three - Writing Prompt

Kalon Name: Althea
Link to Kalon: here!
Prompt:
- Althea walked home, in the peaceful breeze throughout the late night in Toulouse. She was content, but wanted rest. Tired, she continued homeward, thinking of the day she had with her best friend, Azrael. It had been simply fantastic; he had taken her for another fly in the sky and even did some tricks while with her in the air. She had laughed like she hadn't in a long time in the air, she had been so happy, not to mention what happened with the flowers. Azrael had let her braid some golden flowers into his hair, which had never happened before. He had been completely okay with it, and Althea had been so excited that Azrael had let her do this, that her paws had been shaking a bit during the whole process.
She found her key in her purse, unlocking the house with a quick turn, and laid down on her bed. She recapped every detail of what happened that day, and in all her centuries of life, she doesn't think she's had anything better. She fell asleep with thoughts of flight, flowers, and a dark angel dancing in her head.

Workshop Three - Day One Exercise
Kalon Name: Peregrine
Link to Kalon: here!
Has your kalon ever met their grandparents? If so, what do they think of them?
- Peregrine has never met his grandparents! He doesn't know who they are, since he doesn't know his biological parents either, but he's still a very happy kit. He would love to meet them someday if he was able!
What is your kalon's relationship with their parents?
- He has no relation to his parents. He has still grown up very happily, and is just closer to his friends as a result of having very little family. It doesn't make him unhappy that he doesn't know his parents; just curious.
Do they have any siblings? Are they blood related or adopted?
- Nope! No siblings for him. He does have friends that are very close, and considers them like family as far as the degree that he cares about them, but he had no siblings; biological or adopted.
Does your kalon have children? Do they/did they ever want to have kits?
- Not yet! He is a kit himself, but he would love to have a family of his own someday. He thinks it would be fantastic, and looks forward to it when he grows up.
Which family member is your kalon closest to? Why?
- Unfortunately, he has no family members, so he's not closest to any of them.
Is there a family member your kalon wishes they could know better? Who is it?
- Peregrine does wish he could know his parents! He doesn't think about it every day, but it does make him genuinely curious. He just wonders what they were like is all.

Workshop Three - Day Two Exercise

Kalon Name: Althea
Link to Kalon: here!
Who is your kalon's enemy/least favorite person? How did they come to feel this way about them?
- Althea's least favorite person would have to be a "friend" that deserted her in a time of need. While planning to leave an orphanage in Italy as a kit, at age 12, she asked this friend to accompany her. He had agreed, saying that he was going to pack his things. Instead, he had sold her out to the nuns, and they had come after her. Quickly, another friend agreed to help her escape and go with her to France, and they made it out. Althea has long forgiven the boy, but as it was the first major betrayal she had experienced in her life, she still feels the dislike.

Besides their best friend, who else is your kalon friends with?
- Althea is friends with only a few people, since she's found it harder and harder to trust new people over the years. But she really did like the childhood friend she has that embarked on the journey with her to France!
What qualities does your kalon look for in a friend?
- She really looks for someone she can trust. If there isn't any trust, there is simply never a relationship with Althea. She also looks for humor, if she can! She loves to laugh.
What qualities does your kalon dislike in a friend?
- She doesn't like anyone that makes snide comments to other people, or ones that are especially rude to people who are trying their best. For instance, if a waiter at a restaurant dropped food, and the person had said something about how they should do better, since they only get minimum wage, she would drop them as a friend very quickly. Sarcastic people are okay, but anything higher, and Althea is gone.
Would they risk their life to save a friend? A stranger?
- She would risk her life for anyone! Her ability, when used, physically drains her of her strength. Usually, she works herself to exhaustion, and depending on the situation [if in the middle of a battle and healing the wounded among attack], she is risking her life. Nowadays, it's less severe, but Althea would still risk her life for anyone, since she knows all life is precious.
Is it easy or hard to earn their trust? Why?
- It is definitely hard to earn Althea's trust. She's been betrayed so many times in the centuries alive that it's even more difficult than it would be for any ordinary Kalon. She would have to be friends with someone for a long time before she truly trusts them, but if her trust is gained, she'd easily do anything for that Kalon.

Workshop Three - Day Four Exercise

Name of Kalon: Miles
Link to Kalon: here!
Describe their pet/companion:
- Miles's companion is one that he met just a few years ago, one that kept returning over and over. Whether it was to visit him, or if the fish supplies were just plentiful over the seasons, but a male sea lion is a frequent companion with him at the Santa Monica Pier in California, where he works as a lifeguard. Miles playfully calls him Finnegan, "Fin" as a nickname, because he has some scratches on his left fin; probably from another sea lion.
How did they meet their pet/companion?:

Gosh, it's been a rough day, Miles thought to himself, patroling the beach on foot. There was another lifeguard at the station who had kicked him out, saying that there were a lot of people out on the beach in July, and that he should walk around to make sure people are safe. He had been walking around, back and forth, for over an hour and a half. Nothing had happened whatsoever, but that's usually how it was on the job. Miles sighed, continuing his stroll throughout the beach. He walked very far outward away from the crowd, and hadn't really thought about it; being so involved in his thought.
The waves were crashing like thunder, but not shaking the large boulders on the beach. There was no one present where he was,
and Miles decided a small, ten-minute break would be appropriate. Looking at the floor, he saw shells, and thought about his kits.
He smiled, picking some up and putting them in his short pockets. Then, he heard the startling roar of, well, who knows what.
Miles had never heard of such a sound before, and he quite literally jumped. Turning, he saw a monstrous creature, propped onto the large boulder. Brown, with long whiskers and a slick, fat body, he recognized the animal.
A sea lion, Miles again, thought to himself in wonder. He strayed away from the animal, unsure of what it would do to him. After all,
they are dangerous on occasion. The two locked eyes, the sea lion's large, brown eyes staring into his own purple ones. To his surprise, the animal yawned, and laid down on the rock lazily. Miles thought it would be appropriate to approach, and did so. Ever so slightly, he petted the sea lion's side. It was covered in sea water and soaked his paws, but the sea lion didn't care about anything else except basking in the sun.
Miles glanced at the mammal, and noticed something odd. Captivating, almost. The sea lion's left fin was littered with scars, scratches and bites, it seemed. He remembered something from a documentary, about how vicious sea lion mating season could become. Nodding subconsiously, as if Miles understood everything the male had went through, he smiled. Sliding his paw off the belly of the sea lion, he looked at his closed eyes.
"Hello, Fin," Miles smiled. He then heard the call of one whistle, indicating an injury, but not an emergency. Nevertheless, he had to report back. Miles jogged back to the other side of the beach, taking one last glance at his new companion while running. Fin had now opened his eyes, poking his head up curiously from the boulder.
"I'll see you later!"
