The only thing that is known for certain is that the world ended. By now the End has become a legend as old as dirt,
created over thousands of years slipping through lips around crackling fires, being whispered in hushed voices as
night falls - a tale of disease, of bloodlust, of ruin. A warning to the people of Urath. Never again.

physical description Vasily stands at about 6'1" with a muscular build, honed through years of heavy activity. He's marked with a smattering of scars, including a long slash across the center of his chest, but the most striking aspect of his appearance is his silver-white hair. Matching the shade of his fur after shifting, it gives him a slightly ethereal quality - 'kissed by snow'. His eyes may appear dark enough to be black, but in direct light they're the deep green of a pine, unexpectedly crisp and vital. The cool lingering sent of pine covers whatever odor naturally builds up during his strenuous work, mingling with a clinging spice that is impossible to place but heady enough to linger.

personality To most Vasily comes across as deeply cold and unfeeling; a man meant for solitude. He is stubborn and gruff with all the delicate mannerisms of an avalanche. That is to say, he rarely considers how his presence affects others, instead focusing entirely on whatever task is at hand, often to the detriment of his interpersonal interactions. There is no malice or ill intent, simply indifference to most. People tend to pass quickly through his life, so he often does not pay new acquaintances the due that he should.

Yet, despite his unapproachable demeanor, Vas does have a hidden streak of kindness that runs deeper than perhaps any of his other qualities. His indifference is not cruel, and where he can, Vas is quick to quietly provide aid. Be it sharing his rations when others are low, or taking longer guard posts so others may rest, he hides his weakness, his kindness behind a perpetual frown. Nothing makes Vas quite as uncomfortable as recognition for his actions, or recognition of any at all - he rarely feels it is warranted. Growing up as he did, Vasily struggles with most forms of personal interaction, his inexperience manifesting as cool indifference.

history Abandoned in the winter woods as a babe, Vasily's only birthright was was the howling winds full of ice and the promise of a slow death. Years later, his old teacher speculated that maybe he was meant to be a grizzly, but the winter claimed him as its own from the first, gifting him with the claws of the ice bear in return for his companionship on that long, lonely night. Ice bear claws or no, had the Ursine equivalent of the royal advisor (though 'brutality' was often the only advice) not found him, Vasily would have certainly perished. As it was, he was taken in by the royal family - but there was no altruism in the act, just the simple fact that the Ursine prince was in need of a new vassal. And so, Vas was raised with the sole purpose of serving his future king - his life indebted from the very first.

Childhood was as everything else in his life - a challenge to be overcome. The prince was sickly, and though most Ursine leaders would have cast him out for his weakness, the family chose instead to made Vas his strength. And so, the cub was trained hard - harder than perhaps he should have been - and forged into a fierce weapon. He had no friends, no solo time, no life outside his duties, his debts, and that quickly became the only life he knew. Day after day he was given new tasks, and even when a second heir was born - one that was strong and healthy, the true new Ursine king - he was not released. Years slipped by, unnoticed through the toil, until at last a promise of a new life came. The Royal Ursine found only a few to volunteer to search for a cure of a newly emerged disease, and wanting to hedge their bets as much as possible offered their oldest fighter the promise of release from his debts upon completion of the mission. Hope proved to be something Vas was still capable of, even despite his past.

physical description Faolan stands at 5'11, lean and tall. He is a shadow of a man, more sinew than muscle, but with all the air of an unsprung trap. He's always fully covered in dark fabric, heightening the impact of his stark appearance - raven wing hair flecked with silver, slicked back and tumbling in waves, frame dark eyes and lips that are pulled into a perpetual grimace. He has never been confused for a beautiful creature, his features too big, too small, to ever reach such a conclusion, but he's captivating all the same. Schemes flick through his expressions all the time, unreadable plans and thoughts constantly storming across his face, and it's no surprise that he has the scent to match; the calm of an oncoming storm.

personality Faolan is as a shadow - constant yet always in flux. An unflappable facade - as mortal as marble and just as cool - balances on a wire of unknowable calculation. Every action chosen, every movement precise, Faolan cuts through the world. Always thinking, always scheming, always that unsprung trap. Perhaps there was once a molten core of emotion that drove him, perhaps there still is, but if it exists it is likely just rage. He knows what it is to have joy turn to ash in his mouth, a bitter taste that lingers in his every day, seeping into his very bones and the world around him.

Yet is seems as though there is none that he holds in greater regard than himself, greed as intrinsic to his personality as scheming. In moments of need, he will not act unless it is to his direct benefit, and though he was once capable of care the traces of those days have long passed. Now, there is no other who he trusts no one on whom he relies. There is nothing left for him but the promise of revenge.

history The story of Faolan's past is unspoken by him, for if he were to recount his losses he undoubtedly could not stand their full weight. Yet, his story is know in the Canine territory, his name still evoking snarls at its mention. Son of an alpha, perhaps the strongest in generations, Faolan was born with the world at his feet. His mother led the largest pack of her time, roving across the territories and constantly growing the pack under her unflappable guidance. Territory disputes held no weight against their might and skill, and growing up Faolan displayed an early intuition for battle and strategy, learning what he did not know from the best in his territory. Yet for all his skill on the field it seemed he lack the qualities of a leader - compassion. Driven by greed for power, he was reigned in only by the alpha, yet her untimely passing loosed Faolan upon the Canine territory.

Gifted with the largest pack in decades, a brilliant, cruel mind, he became a scourge on the land, taking what he wanted, looting what he was denied and churning up smaller packs beneath his heel. He attacked without warning, and left none untouched in his personal quest to obtain more. Faolan had a mate who had been his chosen since a young age, yet as greed poisoned him to the world, his mate took matters into their own hands to secure the future of the territory. Working in combination with the Alpha council, his most trusted advisors were slain, mutinies were built, and Faolan's fall from power was as graceless as his rise. Death was deemed too good for a man of his crimes, and so he was stripped of his processions and sent to endure the worst fate for one of his kind - living a ceaseless life of an outcast.

○Like Vas, Faolan also has
a shifter suit, and though
they're less rare in the Canine
territory than they are in the
north, it is his most prized
possession. It is well worn and
poorly patched, but it is all
that remains of his former life.

○His shift is a large grey wolf
with a silver stock of fur running
along his back, and a silver band
around his back left paw. He
avoids shifting as much as
possible, mainly doing so at
night so he can travel under
the veil of shadows
○Faolan has incredibly acute
hearing , and despite a small
chunk being taken off his ear
during the mutiny, it remains

○Faolan carries very little
on his person, traveling with
a water flask and small food
provisions, he is capable of
covering ground very quickly
○Due to his well known past,
particularly from the east of
the territory where he
hails from, he often wears
scarves draped over his mouth
in a mostly futile attempt to
hide his true history

physical description Everly is a petite 4'11, with a slightly athletic build. Her fair skin is always tanned from time spent out in the sun, and her fingertip are perpetually smudged with ink from her notes. Exploration and creativity light up her eyes at any given moment, and like her shift she is in perpetual movement. Warm brown waves of hair with tints of gold - when the sun hit them correctly - match perfectly with her sparkling hazel eyes, giving her face a distinctly affable air. Her shift is equally as small as she, brown feathers the same tint as her hair and flecked with trademark shimmers of gold. Everly often smells of the baked goods constantly being made in her home, paired with a sharp note of something chemical - a combination that is hard to forget.

personality Everly is every bit as warm as the sunshine she so adores. Kindness is perhaps what people notice about her first - it is an admittedly difficult quality to overlook - be it the quiet aid of helping where others will not, or standing up to anyone regardless of who they are. Yet, it is her intelligence that Everly takes the most pride in. She dives into her projects whole heartedly, leaving no room for half-efforts or patience. She is often a whirlwind of activity and chatter, yet when studying or experimenting she is deeply focused, and can stay on task for hours without wavering.

Everly is always looking to learn, and it can sometimes blind her to the dangers that might lay head. Yet her kindness and desire to see the best in people and her love of discovery does not mean she is entirely ignorant or incapable of protecting herself. When faced with someone she disagrees with she can be downright fierce, though it takes much to upset her, and even more to provoke her ire.

history
Everly was born to two deeply loving and doting parents, and spent her infancy being well cared for. Her parents were both gifted mechanics and held an important place in their city, quickly becoming close friends with some of the brightest minds in the territory. They were highly respected citizens of the Roost, though then often disagreed with the Elder's opinions of the ancient metal ruins. They believed that the ban on entering the ruins should be lifted as a wealth of knowledge might be found in the underground structures. They argued as much on multiple occasions, yet time after time their petitions to explore were turned down. Thus, Everly's mother took matters into her own hands, believing that perhaps if she returned with resources and knowledge from one known structure further would warrant further exploration of the others. She never returned, and when Everly's father went after her, he was caught in the worst dust storm in generations, being lost as well.

Now with no parents Everly was raised by grandmother Tita in their stead, having only stories of her parents while their memory faded from her young mind. Yet a part of them remained rooted in her - the desire for knowledge. Everly used the connections her parents had forged to get access to education, and quickly found her passion and affinity for chemicals and compounds. Though she crafted a few improved substances on her own at a young age - such as a sticky paste that hardens as it dries, becoming a strong building aid - she took on an apprenticeship with the best chemist in the territory, Zilker. For years she studied with him, until his recent untimely passing. He had been a member of a small team who'd realized the dream that her parents, and so many others like them held onto - they'd explored the ancient ruins. He was a part of the group who'd found the cure, and so when the dangerous task of transporting it came up, Everly was the first to volunteer, despite the protests of her grandmother. The right thing is rarely the easy one, but Everly simply couldn't stand by - she is her parent's daughter.

────────────

○Everly is best friends with a
pair of twins - Nox and Alora
- who are engineers. They
taught her a bit of what they
know, but in truth she is a
sorry builder and should never
be trusted with a hammer
○She knows how to swim,
but is deeply terrible at it
and can't stand it.

○Like most Avians, Everly has

look like the clouds that linger
about the canyon where the
Roost is situated

○Everly constantly carries a
small vials of chemicals and
compounds on her person at
all times - in event of an
emergency. It has only
exploded once, but she tries
not to shift in the event that
they vials will break upon
being dropped

be a professional cook, selling
her baked goods to help raise

physical description Narah is willowy and tall, standing at 5'10. She, like her shift, is lithe, her movements filled with characteristic feline grace, belying the power underneath. Her looks are striking a combination of multi-hued browns, hazels, and the light olive green of her eyes. Her loosely waved hair is most commonly pulled back by elaborate braids decorated with gleaming charms, and her eyes are normally lined with a deep brown kohl. Her skin is inked with swirling patterns that denote her royal affiliation and standing within the territory, though she rarely wears the patterns uncovered. She smells of jasmine and citrus, crisp and clear, the smell heavy enough to linger slightly even after she has departed.

personality Narah is pride incarnate, her ego standing alone as a force to be reckoned with. Ferocity comes as easily as oxygen to her, and once provoked she is dangerous. Her resting state is one of poised indifference, for she and her siblings were raised as a blade to cut through the fabric of high society. Aloof, yet poised to strike - it's a delicate balance, but one that Narah has been maintaining as long as memory serves her. Gracious kindness is for those who have secured their place in the territory, and the Sanhar family is far from secure.

Yet for those who she is close with, Narah transforms into something else entirely. She is loyal to fault when it comes to her family, and would give anything, has given everything, to please them. She can be quite playful as well, perhaps stemming from that fact that she is the youngest daughter in her family, and when she was little was quite prone to pranks. Narah guards this side of herself fiercely, believing full well it would be ripped to ribbons if exposed to the world.

history
Narah is the youngest daughter of six children born to her mother, Ina. Ina was previously a member of the ruling Pride, and was heavily favored by the people as a leader. It was during her time in the Pride that she had her children, which is why each bears the swirling tattoos of their mother's lineage and the markings of royalty. But Prides are not like the Canine packs of the east, there is no stability to be found for most members, particularly for those who have come from outside families as Ina had. So when Ina was slain in a coup for power, it was entirely unsurprising.

While they could have fled, Narah and her siblings instead chose to remain in Fang, and fight their way back into power. They each vowed to do their part to restore the family name, and endure the crushing weight and ferocity of Feline court. Left with little more than their old trappings of royalty and their fierce pride that holds them together, they defied the odds and each survived to adulthood. Led by their eldest brother, Karu, who known both for his beauty and for his ferocity in defending the Territory, each sibling has a role to play in garnering support for their name. Narah has long held a place in society, but the battle to maintain is constant, and so when the opportunity arose to solidify the family in the minds of the people and in the ruling Pride, Narah leapt at it. So with the fate of her beloved siblings handing in the balance she will not allow the mission to fail. She simply cannot.

Physical

xxxxxIn a mountainous region where people’s skin is made ruddy and calloused by the elements
and their bodies made thick and hard to survive, Mave’s smooth, pale skin and slim, long-legged
form is unusual. Lithe; willowy; sharp— these are the words that most easily surface when
appraising Mave. Beautiful could easily be among them, but only if one has a true appreciation for
the wilderness, for fierceness— because despite the inviting large eyes and plush lips, everything
else about her lean figure, right down to the callouses in her palms and the unwomanly flatness of
her stomach speaks to a lifetime of near-hunger, saved only by her own quick wits and instinct for
self-perseverance. There’s something strangely scrappy about her otherwise beautiful face, a
contradiction between the lush, dark eyelashes and cheekbones as pronounced as the mountain
peaks of her homeland, a battle between the delicate freckles dotting her skin and the faint
hollows under her eyes, that bespeaks a longer, deeper war between wilderness and humanity,
and it takes a fine eye to pick up on it. To most, though, it is just a fairly beautiful face made
somewhat less beautiful (to what extent is dependent on the viewer) by the harshness of expression
which has clearly dominated her countenance for most of her life. One of her most notable features,
however, becomes more and more obvious the longer one knows her, and that is the utter lack of
mars in her skin. Sure, she has the nicks that even the wealthiest might have, the tiniest scrapes on
her knuckles or knees that healed with faint white marks, but not a single battle scar. Not even the
thinnest claw mark or puncture wound. That, perhaps even more so than her beauty, makes her an
oddity considering her unforgiving homeland, for even the greatest warriors have taken blows in
battle for the sake of winning the war. What it betrays, more than fighting expertise, is a complete
lack of fighting at all.

Personality

xxxxxIf there was ever a woman who needed no help at all, it would be Mave. Quick-witted, capable,
and ruthlessly persevering, Mave takes on her snow-capped world with an iron will and a goal to do
one thing: survive. Not a believer of luxuries or comfort, she embraces her wild side more than most
shifters do or would ever want to, spending the majority of her time in her leopard form in the
northern hunting territories of her kingdom, making her living by selling elk and deer antlers and
only regularly shifting to her human form to travel to the cities for trade. Very much a creature of
routine and efficiency, Mave has never ventured beyond her homeland, and her trips to the cities do
not allow sight-seeing. Starting her day in the wee hours of the morning, long before the sky has
begun to brighten, and hunting well into the night with cat-naps interspersed throughout her day, it
would be quite difficult for any observer to distinguish her from an oversized snow leopard. Even
her little wooden hut, situated high up in the mountains, is only ever used as a craft shop, with her
"bed" a pile of elk furs. Sure, comfortable enough, but really looks more like an oversized doghouse
than a well-lived-in home. Lucky for Mave (although she probably wouldn't care very much anyway)
there are no observers to her solitary life. As a snow leopard, she can move in silence, only ever
sensed by the most sensitive of fellow feline-shifters.
xxxxxMave’s skills and personality lead her to very rarely have to face trouble head-on. Even in more
populated areas, her slight frame blends in with the crowd, and her fur coats are of good enough
quality to not distinguish her as a pauper, but plain enough to not call attention to herself. On the
rare occasion that attention is called, however (usually when attempting to barter for perhaps a bit
more than she deserves), and there's a risk of things going south, she has one last thing to fall back
on: her face. It is no secret to her that her appearance is generally appealing, and just like any other
tool she has— from her claws to her silent pawsteps— she has no qualms taking advantage of it. In
the few instances where she was unable to evade confrontation, things never came to blows as she
was able to charm her way out of the situation. She has no moral issues with dishonesty when it can
spare her hide, and in the same vein, sees no value in pride or dignity if it comes at the sacrifice of
her physical well-being. So this otherwise capable and independent young leopardess has never had
an issue with mollifying would- be attackers with simpering smile and a coy wink— "Oh, I was only
playing." Some may consider it shameful to stoop to such levels, or pity it as an unfortunate
consequence of being a woman alone in the wilderness, or even worry it could lead to more trouble
than a good old brawl, but Mave has never been one to victimize herself and sees it as an
advantage that a more intimidating figure may not have access to; and for anyone that dare try to
take advantage of her, well... even the fluffiest cats have their claws.
xxxxxIsolated, cold, wary, and manipulative— not a recipe for closeness, really. But with those few
who she is close to, what is she like? Mave herself does not know the answer. Losing her older
brother at a young age, her sister even younger, and leaving her mother before she was 16, Mave
has spent almost half of her life in near-isolation. For a human, this would be agonizing and
indicative of grave psychological effects— even the most introverted of people are social beings
at their cores— humans need humans. But Mave wasn't raised to be a human. She wasn't
necessarily raised to be a wild animal, but examining her, it is sometimes difficult to find the
difference. Leopards— and snow leopards especially— are isolated creatures their very essence—
they meet with the opposite sex to reproduce, raise their cubs, and leave their cubs to fend for
themselves. They are not family-oriented, they do not generally make very doting parents or
partners, and they certainly don't make very good friends. After spending so much of her time as
a leopard, allowing the winter chill of the mountains to freeze her human heart and bury it
under decades of snow, perhaps Mave has lost the humanity that distinguishes her race from the
animals they transform into. Then again, perhaps it will take joining together with her fellow
creatures to reawaken the other instincts lying dormant inside of her— to befriend, to love, to
protect. Perhaps it will take a threat to what she cares about most— her own survival— to
remember why she was meant to care about it in the first place.

History

xxxxxBorn in the frigid northern peaks of the Ursine territory, Mave's mother allowed them perhaps 24 hours in their human forms before forcing her newborn to shift. They were on the run, from what, Mave was never allowed to know, but she has vague memories from when she was younger of the overwhelmingly fishy stench of grizzly bears and the howls of wolves. By the time she was old enough to form any concrete memories, though, they had reached their destination— the northwest mountains of the Feline territory; her mother's birthplace. It was here that Mave learned to track, hunt, and kill for her livelihood. Her mother had always encouraged independence— anything Mave killed, she got to eat, and any skins or antlers produced from her catches, she kept the profits from. Spending nearly all of their time in total isolation from the world as snow leopards facilitated this independence— they were less vulnerable that way. Less bothered by the cold and pain and human attachment. By the time she was 12, she was largely responsible for supporting herself with the exception of the hardest winter months, sometimes going a week without seeing her mother as they pursued different prey trails. As she got older, the stretches between seeing one another extended, until they were only together every 3-4 months to take a trading trip to one of the cities. Then, for one such excursion not long after her 16th birthday, her mother never showed up. Mave had not grown up to anticipate support from the icy leopardess, though, and after a few days of waiting— just in case— she started the journey on her own. Since that day, Mave has lead a solitary lifestyle, making her living hunting and trapping and using the pelts and bones to make clothes, tools, and decor to sell in the cities,
where such rustic goods are novelties to southern lifestyles. She doesn't discriminate, either,
and being situated on the northeastern edge of feline territory, will somewhat frequently
travel to the Ursine border to trade pelts and jerky for blades to make weapons with.

HISTORY: his mother dying shortly after h
is birth, daniel was raised by his cold and
unaffectionate father until age 16, deem
ed an adult at this age and expected to f
ind his own way from there on out. unbo
thered to have to leave his previous hom
e, never finding much comfort from his s
ingle father who treated him as more of
a student than a son (teaching him basic
survival skills instead of giving the love a
nd warmth of a parent), daniel moved fr
om the valley to the jungle in an effort t
o move as far away from his past as poss
ible. able to use the trees as hunting gro
unds, daniel found peace in the bounty
and beauty of the thick jungle terrain, a
nd would have been happy to stay by his
lonesome among the trees if it wasn't for
this cursed plague.

surprisingly sentimental despite his detached image ─ gives off that the past doesn't b
other him, but he's also the first person to remember the smallest details of events th
at someone else might see as insignificant • has a mix of distaste and distrust towards
others that causes him to distance himself with his words and actions • if you break p
ast his tough facade, daniel is one of the sweetest people you'll meet, quick to pampe
r and care for those around him ─ he will always be somewhat harsh with his deliverie
s, but he can be quite humorous and charming if he warms up to you • at some point,
his pointed glares will become more of a playful teasing if he's starting to warm up to
you ─ good luck interpreting • most often seen with a look of nonchalance or obvious
distaste, honest smiling quite rare ─ they're reserved purely for those he trusts • more
likely to roll his eyes at overly extroverted/friendly individuals, preferring they mind t
heir own business versus bothering him • overly possessive ─ doesn't like other's gettin
g too close to the things or people he's closest/most attached to, and will show his jea
lousy aggressively (initiating fights, threatening others, etc) • extremely protective •
spent so much time pretending his lonely past didn't bother him but it didn't make mu
ch of a difference in the end ─ most comfortable alone, but still hates it, unaware of
what love/friendship are and wishing that he can experience them at some point in hi
s life • can get somewhat restless after too much time alone ─ would often travel to t
he nearest cities when this happened, seeking something new, only to eventually feel
overwhelmed and again return to his solitude in his small forest home.
