Bk13 wrote:Name of Serenche: Havarti
Personality: SHe is a very traditional Serenche, prefers the 'old ways' and tends to be very wary of humans or anything not common to their land. So in other words she is a relatively cautious creature that does not take kindly to change. She is also relatively reserved, preferring the company of very few much like her antisocial father.
History: As a young pup (pup? Kit? I dunno what they would be as babehs x) ) Hava was very close with her mother. The very beginning of her life was relatively calm, her father checked in to make sure his family was doing alright but would often dissapear. At one point her father and mother sort of switched places, her father would stay while her mother would dissapear for hours at a time. This caused a rift to form between her mother and herself, and Hava was constantly asking, "Mother, where do you go for so long?" and her mother would say the same thing every time, "To see a friend."
Now Hava knew nothing of 'cheating' at this young age but even if she did that was not the reason for her mothers dissapearing. What her mother snuck off to do was to meet up with a human, she would go to the edge of the trees and just watch the human go about it's day, she studied it. This went on for almost a full year. Unfortunately for her, her daughter and husband found out and they did not take kindly to the news. Her father always hated the humans for encroaching on their homeland then turning and attacking their kind for what seemed like no reason. And now some of the two-legged were trying to make friends? Rediculous. Untrustworthy. Dirty. Bad. Those are the describing words Hava's father engrained into her mind. Neither Hava nor her father approved of her mother's escapades. From this Hava gained her severe untrust of humans, and it only intensified when her mother limped home one night with a gun shot wound to the leg. Hava's father was furious and exploded at her mother, snarling and pacing around their little den like structure made of broken trees. Her mother knew that the human she watched was dangerous but she continued to press her mate to let her go back and see why she was attacked with the sticks that shot rocks. Both Havarti and her father agreed the watching would have to stop but her mother wouldn't let that happen and instead she snuck off as soon as she was able to walk properly.
She never came back.
Havarti and her father carefully searched where her mother most likely went to to watch but they never found anything more than a stale scent. Infuriated and enraged Hava's father withdrew into the shadows, taking every bit of emotion he ever showed with him. Hava was left to fend for herself almost a year younger than most Serenche Lartins. She barely knew how to scavenge for food.
So one day when the almost starving young creature found what looked like crumbly rock on the ground near the edge of the thickest trees she had to investigate. With a quick sniff she determined it was edible, a touch of her tongue and an explosion of flavor tidal waved over her tastebuds. Heaven on earth.
What was this scrumptious piece of crumbly rock? Havarti was about to find out.
She followed the trail of crumbs to a break in the trees where a small human was sitting, gnawing on one of the rocks. Havarti crept in as quietly as she could, attempting to steal one of the delicious treats. Unfortunately the little girl noticed the hungry animal and was startled into dropping her cookies. Havarti pounced on the treats and ravenously gobbled them in no time at all. At this poinjt the little girl realized the animal meant no harm and she pulled another cookie out of her sundress pocket. With no fear she held the cookie out for Havarti to sniff, and so she did, however her actions dripped with caution. The small human didn't look dangerous but their tools definetly were.
Which Cage?: Cage 5
Other: These creatures are so clever ^^ I love the way you design them and you will definetly be getting some fan art from me soon x3)
WIP
I think I would call the childs for pups, since the species is more canine than feline x3
Beautiful story too, by the way ;3

Well, I think they understand the word cookie (xP) but other than that they don't understand a lot more

Planning to add their language up at the facts page soon, with a few simple words; like "hello", "how are you" and of course "cookie?" x3 It will be somewhat like chirps though, kinda like a birdy noice ^^'
Everyone else:
Sorry for not commenting everyone, but it would taken me the whole day x3 Just picking out a few which have a few questions or something and answer those, but trust me; I read EVERY form at least once :3
5 days until the first three is finished by the way ;3 When all the five Serenches is out I will start up a RP for all of you, just so you can do something with them ^^
