Characters of All Sizes Sanctuary [Revived!/OPEN]

[CaptainHiccup]

Go ahead and keep working on your forms guys, you'd probably like the extra time anyways. I might not have internet access this weekend and even if I do I'll be spending time with my family so I am going to set the code drop back to either christmas day or new years day. That gives you all a lot of time so I'll allow you guys to also try for three characters at this go around if you like ^-^

So this doesn't count?

What do you mean it doesn't count?
If this CD, yes this Code drop doesn't really count because Syr is pretty busy, but you should work on your form untill the next one.
Oh and read my post on the last page about the amount you can adopt.
~Thank you

[Wesley]

Aysan, Syra said that you can go for three this round. FF was asking you if what Syra said about the amount didn't count because she was confused. You said she can only go for two, but Syra said she can go for three in that message FF quoted.

[Offended Cockatiel]

Ah... sorry. Thanks for that, I had no idea.
Hey Wes? Chat?

Why I want this Character:
Her designs are gorgeous and I intend to have her be Lux's daughter, who's color scheme is the same as her.
I really like how the colors blend and go together so well, also how the markings are all different but they are
both the same but not quite. I want this character to be a part of Lux's story and they would be great together!

I’ve been watching this beauty for a while and I’ve finally caved in so hopefully I’m not too late to go for her. It's still pretty rough if you ask me but it will have to do for now. Happy New Year to everyone and I wish you all good luck in 2012!

Why I Want This Character:
Hmmm….this is a hard question. I always find it quite difficult to explain human emotions such as desire and fondness but I’ll give it a shot. Well let me see, she is gorgeous but honestly everybody can see that. This character has a specific aurora that makes me feel like she would make an amazing contribution to any story and actually the second I laid eyes on her I found my creativity, which I thought had been hibernating because of its inactivity, stirring with new ideas. Most importantly I just want her to have a loving home and I know for a fact that I can give that to her.

Name:
Kallysta Svanja

Name Meaning:
Kallysta, a variant of Calista, has both Latin and Greek
orgins and means “the most beautiful”.
Svanja is a from the German and Swedish word Svan meaning Swan.

Age:
Unknown

Gender:
Female

Species:
Third Generation Mutant Wolf
[This will be explained in just a bit]



Personality:
Although Kallysta’s personality does seem to be undertaking a significant change as doubt in her existence sinks in most of her characteristics linger on, if not a bit tattered. While extremely composed and indifferent she lives in a world tinged in crimson. She seeks nothing, not power nor glory, and never seems to have any other goal than to survive. A frightening opponent she seems intimidating because of her phlegmatic attitude and her lack of anger towards her enemies. Brutally honest she does not seem to worry about others emotions but has a natural affinity for reading others body language. Friendly, is a word that should never come up when she is being described; with too many hardships in her past she has become quite reserved and defensive and it would take a lot of gentle persistence along with an everyday miracle to get her to open up. If you ever do get the chance to befriend her, though, she transforms into the most loyal and sweetest of companions and it’s this blind love that more often than not leads her to hearbreak.



History/Background:

Hidden deep within the confusion and madness of New York City lived a man names Doctor Sorenn Clarke. Clarke, despite being one of the leading scientists in the study of genetic coding, was a quiet and all in all rather insignificant man. Residing in a rather small house on Harrington Street North with his young son, Peter, he kept mostly to himself until the day that his son was diagnosed with a rare subdivision of acute myelogenous leukemia (AML). In the next two years he spent most of his time in hospitals but when nothing seemed to cure young Peter and even the doctors started giving up hope of recovery Clarke retreated to his personally laboratory, desperate to heal his son. As time ticked by Clarke became more frantic and started testing animals with each of his antidotes but all of his experiments seemed to fail before they even began. On December 27th, 2052 he had a breakthrough, one of his lab rats not only survived but seemed to grow stronger. Afraid that it was just a glitch he tested four more rats, three mice, four cats, six canines, and even two chimpanzees and when all of the animals came up with the same results as the first rat he did one last experiment...his son the last variable. Two days later Clarke was dead but Peter was stronger than ever with only a few slight changes; the boy now exhibited a strange sensitivity to light, a much quicker response system, blood shot eyes, and the growth of sharper incisors. Fearful and confused, assuming that he had somehow been transformed into a vampire; Peter fled leaving his home and his father’s body and traveling North to find refuge in the unfamiliar streets of Albany.

Abandoned the creatures which also displayed strange characteristics found an escape, crawling through the air ducts they managed to break out of the Clarke laboratory and find shelter in the crowded turmoil of the city. As time passed new traits formed among the animals, with a higher intelligence they were able to verbalize their thoughts in both their animal languages and in the much more complex human languages. Heightened senses allowed the animals to flourish in their new habitat without drawing attention to themselves and some of the animals even exhibited distinctly human features and emotions. But with these new strengths came conflict and division.

The Mutants, as they came to be called were split into three groups: The Noble, The Loyal, and The Ambivalent. During the first generation, or Alphas, rule three of the canines, two rats and one of the felines thought of themselves as superior to human kind and wished to purge the world of those two weak to fight for their lives; these mammals were later dubbed The Noble but did not become much of a threat until two generations later. Not wanting to interfere with fate and some even believing that they were not worthy enough to call themselves anything other than monsters another allegiance was formed called The Loyal founded by the remaining three canines, two rats, three mice, and one cat. Although most fell into one of those two categories there was one last group created; The Ambivalent or The Untrusted were those few Mutants that swayed from Noble to Loyal or had no interest in the quarrels of their kind. Both chimpanzee’s, the last two cats, and the boy Peter were placed into this category.

Over the years they gained knowledge, strength, numbers, and power. Soon it became known that Dr. Clarke had not stumbled upon a cure for leukemia but instead a virus which infects the blood stream and takes over both the heart and brain. Of course this virus is not deadly to its host and doesn’t seem to have any negative side effects but that does mean that all a Mutant would have to do to infect others would be to get a single drop of their blood into the direct blood stream of another animal’s. Another discovery that was made was that Mutants were not immortal nor were they invincible; they could be killed in the same way you kill regular animals but killing a Mutant has its risks. The only safe ways to kill a Mutant is by burning them or stabbing the heart and leaving the weapon in the wound so that less blood is spilled. Since there is a live bacteria specific to each Mutants blood, if another Mutants blood were to mix with a different Mutants the virus’s would attack each other and ultimately kill each other resulting in blood poisoning.

Many were converted into Mutants but there was a small portion that was born to the Alphas; these were called the Second Generation or the Heirs. Unlike their parents who had the challenges of discovering what exactly they were and what their limitations were the Heirs had to defend their morals. Among these Heirs was Kallysta’s mother; she was a beautiful Mutant wolf who was an extreme Loyal and it was this understanding for the world that Kallysta was brought up in. It wasn’t until her mother’s death that she gave up on everything and acquired the reputation of an Ambivalent. Although she does not know it nor does she wish it, Kallysta will soon have much more of a reputation than just an indifferent Ambivalent after she meets the spunky and slightly animated Mikail Raito and is forced to join him and his friends [Chrysolite, Akio, and Ronin] on a journey that will test not only their physical strength but also their determination.

Here are a couple sketches that I did of her and I apologize beforehand for the quality of these; my camera is not exactly the best.

I would just like to thank JerseyDusk for donating this sweetheart. She is gorgeous and I know that it must have been hard to give her up. I would also like to thank Syra and everyone who helps keep CASS up and running I know it must be hard sometimes but you guys are doing an awesome job.
[Please don’t think this is me trying to suck up to you guys. I just wanted to show some of the appreciation that has built up while I have silently stalked this thread for a while.]
