↳.I see this Kiamara as female. Out in nature, the males are usually flashier than the girls (hummingbirds, peacocks, lions, etc.). This Kiamara has beautiful muted colors, which leads me to believe that she's a girl.

↳.I'd like to give her the name Ceren. It's a Turkish name, meaning gazelle. A gazelle is a form of deer, but it's not a deer directly. I wanted her name to be kind of delicate, but to still have meaning.

↳.Ceren's object that she considers important is simply an expended shotgun shell.

↳.The only reason we really grow attached to things is because of the memories associated with them. To any other, your wristband is just a camouflage band of rubber. But to you, it means something special, because certain things resurrect in your mind when you think of it.
Ceren shoots competitively. All of the rules for the range are permanently embedded in her mind (keep the gun pointed in a safe direction, always treat a gun like it's loaded, keep your finger off the trigger until ready to shoot). This was the shell that helped her to win her first medal. To help her remember the competition and the thrill of the shots going off, she grabbed this shell after firing it, and painstakingly carved the rules of the range into it.

Marshmallows

Why ;;

When Smore's was but a small kiamara, like every young fellow his age he went to school. One particular year, he had recently switched schools-he knew no kias, and he was at an awkward stage where it can be hard to make friends. He felt really nervous when one day, his teacher announced that the class would be going camping that weekend. He knew nobody, and he had never even been camping before. Doom was written all over it.

When his mom found out after he got home, she quietly went to the panty and pulled out a bag of marshmallows. "Son, this is the ticket to friends and fun. Take these."

He stared at the marshmallows. How on earth would marshmallows relieve him of the painful weekend ahead? He rolled his eyes and packed the sticky treat in with the rest of the belongings that were listed on the checklist the teacher sent with them.

When Friday came, he was still puzzling over it. Marshmallows. Marshmallows and the possibilities that never make sense filled his mind as he climbed into the bus. Odd visions filled his head as he sat alone for the two hour bus ride. However, at the campsite all of that was forgotten. The class was split up into pairs, so everyone had a tent buddy. Each pair was responsible for setting up their own tent, so Smore's and his partner worked together to set up theirs properly. Smore's didn't know the kia, but he seemed nice enough.

When nighttime fell and all the kias had their tents up, the class had a blast roasting hotdogs over the fire. Smore's pal's hotdog fell into the fire once, which sent the class roaring with laughter as the sparks flew and the hotdog whined and groaned amidst the flames. Once the kias had settled down and eaten the meal, the teacher stood up and smiled. "Ok everyone, who wants to now roast marshmallows?"

Every paw sailed high in the air. Smore's raised his too, although an odd look was upon his face. "I'll go get them from the bus then." the teacher pawed off. He soon returned. "Unfortunately class, somehow the marshmallows didn't make the trip. Sorry. Graham crackers anyone?"

Smore's had to raise his voice high to go above the din of disappointed kias. "Uhm, excuse me-I have some. Uh, uh, I'll go get them." He stuttered to an astonished crowd. He quickly returned with the bag. There arose quite a cheer, and Smore's found himself being clapped on the back and thanked. He resumed his seat by his tent buddy. "You know..." spoke his friend. "I thought that this camping time would stink, as you seemed so...uncool. But I may be wrong. Friends?" the kia rose his paw high in the air. Smore's high fived him. "Totally. Now, let's roast some marshmallows before the rest hog them all!

Years have went by, but everytime Smore's sees a bag of marshmallows, he can still smell the smoke of the air, the crisp air, and the shampoo of his still best-friend that had sat beside him that night. For friends are like marshmallows-even when torn apart, they can easily stick back together given time.

An object or symbol of importance ;; A broken glass.
Why ;;
This is a symbol of importance because it shows us how life isn't always the best
thing that may of happened to you. One day, it may be the best day of your life,
and the next could be even worse than a nightmare. The cup represents yourself,
while the crack represents the hardships you go through. The spiderweb represents
that everything is tied together somehow.

Feeling Groovy - Simon and Garfunkel

Why ;;

Many songs have strong emotional connections to us. We may feel connected to some songs because of an event that happened while listening to the song, a person who liked or sung it or something the song reminds us of. For Regent, this song Feeling Groovy has a strong emotional connection to him. His father, someone who loved folk music, used to hum it all the time, and it was one of the first songs Regent ever remembers knowing. Although he has grown much since then, and although he doesn't particularly like folk music nowadays, this song remains as his favourite as it reminds him of his childhood and his father.

An object or symbol of importance ;;
A purple flute, worn from age.
Why ;;
Amiya has kept this flute from when she was young. In her child years, she had always been a musical type of kid, being entranced by dancing, singing, and making tunes through instruments or even just her paws. This little memento reminds her of her sweet dear mother, of which had taught her how to play the flute. They would practice for hours on end, smiles on their faces and happy eyes. Though Amiya was left devastated when her mother was taken by illness, but continues to live on with a pained smile, and her same, old, happy eyes.

However, in her teenage years, she had became deaf due to a small accident. Now, she can never hear the same melody that may remind her of her loving parent, but she still has it to look at and say, 'My mother was great.'

Kia's Gender ;; Male
Kia's name ;; 'Reggie'. I don't know why I chose Reggie, it's kind of a rustic, jazzy kind of name. I think it suits his personality and his looks nicely.
An object or symbol of importance ;; A piece of frayed rope
Why ;;This beautiful boy's item is a small piece of frayed rope. Why the frayed rope you ask? This rope was part of his homemade childhood swing, he has many beautiful memories of his garden and the sweet swing; so after many years of living there, they decided to move, Reggie untied the swing and took a part of the old twine, tying it around his neck. Reggie still keeps this round his neck today, a pleasant reminder of how innocent life can be, and how it's the little things that make beautiful memories.
The swing was made out of old wood and the rope that Reggie now wears round his neck. Now that Reggie has grown up he hopes one day to build a swing similar to his; so that his children may experience the same simple joy he experienced as a child.
Reggie wears the rope round his neck in a loose knot, the frayed ends dangling slightly.
If ever an item could carry so much sentimental value, this would be it. <3

She owns an old map which is crinkled around the edges.
;;why;;
The map has been around for generation after generation, it began from her early ancestors and it has been carried down now. They are attracted to the mystery of it, the adventure. And many love traveling.

When Zealandia lived with her Grandfather due to her father being gone and her mother traveling the world she asked him about the map.

Her little head had peeked over his shoulder to get a closer look at the map, it's edges curled and small tears around the edges too. It had browned and once it had almost been struck by fire. There was so much history and when she asked, he answered.

"But why do we still keep it? Why do we search?" she had asked innocently.

"We look for hope in this map, it could lead us anywhere and sometimes it has even led us to our dreams. The mystery makes us just want to find the location hidden away and without this map I'd never have met your Grandmother. It is special to each member of our family in a different way and I want you to find something
special in it too," her Grandfather told her whilst gently folding the map into her paws.

After that she treasured that map and when her Grandfather passed away she cried for months, nothing but the map by her side. It's her faithful companion, the thing she holds when she's upset, what caused her happiness, her excitement, and even her frustration. But everyday she keeps trying to follow the map, and she is always looking for that something special that will truly connect her to the map. Little does she know that she is already connected to it by her Grandfather.
