prompt: Where did your kalon grow up?

iola

iola grew up in a small town that had more greenhouses than actual houses. The major source of income for most of the population was floriculture, or the cultivation of flowering plants. Flower Farmers! The few children that lived in the town were put to work after school, helping to fetch and carry when they were younger and learning more about pests and diseases, fertilizers and nutrients, pruning and cutting, splicing, breeding for color and shape, you name it. By the time she was 15, she was adept at the management and care of at least half of the species that the village grew. All of the children were covered in dirt and leaf litter at the end of each day, but iola generally left the greenhouses with small offcut flowers tucked into her hair, as well.

prompt:
Incarse facts!
•His childhood was kind of rough so he hung with a bad crowd
•His best friend when he was younger was a mouse that he named Tom
•He basically raised himself because he was supposed to be living with his grandfather, who didn't care too much
•His shine is very noticeable when trying to pull off gang activities, so he has a custom black cloth bag that he ties over the end of his tail
•His middle name is Ephesus, he doesn't like his last name so he just uses his middle as his last
•He seems hard and intimidating but he is really sweet to those he trusts. He knows it sounds super cliche but he really cares about his friends because they're his family, he just doesn't like many other people (besides kids)
•His gang doesn't pull off stuff that usually hurts people, they're more like a bunch of robin hoods that steal money from the rich. Lots of money.
•Secretly, he wants to get out of gang stuff because he thinks that he would be better off without worrying about police and things all the time and actually making a legal living, but he doesn't know how because this is all he had ever known and he doesn't want to leave his members
•He's looking for someone to mentor to take his place, but it's hard to find a nice person who also wants to steal money.
•He really wants to settle down and have kids one day, that's one of his major goals.

Prompt 3
Write 10 bullet points of trivia about your kal!

Tilly -

1.) Tilly has a deep, unending love of coffee in all its forms. Everything from icy sugary frappes to the darkest espresso, she loves it all, and makes a point to try the coffee wherever she goes.
2.) She's an avid lucid dreamer and constructs beautiful, strange fantasy worlds to play in each night.
3.) She runs a small shop specializing in handmade goods, particularly candles and soaps made by herself and a select few other local artisans.
4.) Tilly specializes in candle making, and is well known for creating unique floral scents.
5.) She's also known to make cold form soaps. They aren't fancy, but they smell wonderful, and leave both skin and fur incredibly soft.
6.) She lives in a small, cozy apartment above her shop in the heart of the city. It's tiny, but perfect for her, and she gets to wake up to the heavenly smell of her favorite diner just down the street making bacon and eggs.
7.) She's actually an awful cook, and half her kitchen is just various different coffee equipment. She considers herself lucky she's able to afford meals from the health restaurant down the road.
8.) She has a small bear she sleeps with at night she's had since she was a child. His name is Snuffles.
9.) She makes it a point to go on a walk through the park every evening to get some exercise and fresh air.
10.) She's got a fondness for bitter flavors, and honestly isn't too big on sweets.

Dante -

1.) Dante's favorite pizza topping is triple pepperoni and bacon with spinach. He lives off a diet almost entirely consisting of pizza.
2.) He's thin but huge for a kalon, and fairly strong. He looks a lot more fierce than he is, and due to this and his lifestyle he's accidentally developed a completely inaccurate reputation as being the strongest gang leader in the city.
3.) He doesn't belong to an actual gang but does spend almost all of his time with his main group of friends. They're incredibly close, having grown up together, and he's incredibly loyal to them.
4.) He's a massive fan of horror movies and dreams of making his own. He and his friends spend their days off trying to make one of their own. He isn't good at it, but they all have a lot of fun.
5.) His actual job is pizza delivery. It doesn't pay a lot but his boss appreciates a guy who can deliver to the shadier parts of town without getting jumped, and Dante gets a free pizza every work day on the house.
6.) Dante is deeply socially awkward, and very very quiet. It makes him seem cold, but he's honestly just nervous.
7.) He badly wants a pet, but is allergic to pretty much everything. He has one beta fish he takes incredibly good care of living in a rather large, well kept tank. It's name is Freddy.
8.) He's been trying to find a significant other for a while, but gets so nervous trying to ask anyone out he nearly faints. He also has a hard time finding people he likes in the first place.
9.) Dante was raised by a single mom with a few siblings. He considers his childhood a happy one, and still visits his family often.
10.) Dante has a movie collection that takes up three whole walls of his bedroom. He remembers a crazy amount of detail about most all of them.


Agni -

1.) Agni actually grew up out in the country and only moved to the suburbs just outside the city in his late teens. He took to it instantly, a natural extrovert overjoyed at finally being surrounded by people, and quickly earned a reputation of being a pretty nice guy who can host some awesome parties.
2.) He's a bit of a party animal, and seems to need to be surrounded by people. He's pretty good at keeping things from getting out of hand, but his place is pretty much always a wreck because of the constant guests.
3.) He has a massive appetite and it's something of a mystery to most people how he doesn't balloon like crazy.
4.) He actually works out quite a bit, and keeps a tight gym schedule.
5.) He works as a delivery boy of sorts, mostly dropping off and driving around unmarked packages. It's unclear if he realizes he's working for the local mafia, but most people would like to think he's not so dumb he doesn't see how fishy it all is.
6.) He's generally an incredibly calm and amicable guy, but when pushed too hard has a frightening temper. It lights up hard and fast, most often resulting in short but incredibly intense outbursts. Thankfully it's rare anything sets him off, to the point most of his friends argue his supposed temper is just a rumor.
7.) He has a love of clashing colors and most of his decor is a bit blinding to look at.
8.) He loves animals and would love to have a pet, but knows he wouldn't take care of one properly. He makes due with lavishing attention on any animal that will let him.
9.) He once ate an entire sheet cake at a party on a dare. He's incredibly proud of the fact he didn't puke.
10.) He's honestly a lonely soul, and would love to find a partner. It takes him a long time to grow to like someone romantically, though, and the only kal he ever got to the point of asking out turned him down.


Gregory -

1.) Gregory has quite a few weird blank spots in his memory. He doesn't remember much of any of his childhood, and what he does remember is vague, more sound and feelings and light than anything concrete.
2.) He first clearly remembered when he woke up in a physicians office, apparently dragged there when an older kal found him unconscious in the woods.
3.) He first sought out his tutor, Llucid, because of their reputation as a powerful witch. He stuck around primarily because something about them was... familiar.
4.) He's taken an interest in darker magic, particularly spells and hexes preformed through sigils, and necromancy.
5.) He hides a lot of his magic practices, genuinely not wanting to upset Llucid. He knows they wouldn't be mad per se but he doesn't want to see them cry either.
6.) He's honestly not a bad person, but finds it hard to connect with or open himself up to anyone.
7.) He's a very good student, despite his sarcasm, and is actually fairly smart, able to pick up on and memorize things rapidly.
8.) He's incredibly rude with most other men, but gentle and courteous with most women, though painfully awkward. This tendency alone makes most think he probably hailed from a family in the south where gender roles tend to be more strict.
9.) He honestly doesn't eat much, "eating to live instead of living to eat", but has a massive weakness for apple pies.
10.) While his need to look cool prevents him from expressing it publicly he actually cares quite a bit about holidays, and gets depressed if he feels he can't celebrate properly. He isn't too cheerful around family centric holidays.
