Wha...? I see freaks on the front page! This must mean...

POUND OF HOPE AND FREAKS OF NATURE ARE FINALLY ONE! 8D

Yes, I got off my lazy butt, and added the kennels. So, after this CD, please, oh please, start adding the correct letter to the kennel number as well, as you can now adopt 1 common and 1 freak each round. Plus, it'll keep us all from getting confused. XD

This also goes for anyone going for a character being given out next week, instead of this week. Pleas edit your form with the right letter. As they were just added today, the freaks will start to be dropped next week.

Now, let's party! 8D

Kennel: P21
Name: Kai
Definition/Meaning of Name: Pet form of Low German Gerrit, meaning "spear strong." (meaning taken from: http://www.20000-names.com )
Breed: Grey Wolf x Tribal Wolf
Age: Unknown
Why do you want this animal? &What will you do for this animal?: I want Kai because when I first saw him, I immediately fell in love with his design. I love his tattoos, his mask, and the color combination (it's the same color combination I used for my fursona XD). Kai would be a perfect character for a story I am writing. I currently do not have enough characters yet, so I would really need Kai.
Personalty: Kai is playful, mysterious, funny, and flirty. He is the most outgoing of all of his friends, he is a daredevil, and, though he doesn't seem like it on the outside, he is actually sensitive and sweet on the inside.
Dislikes&Likes:
-Likes
  • Pranking people
  • Helping others (Though he makes them swear that they will never tell anyone. It's one of his biggest secrets. Kai thinks that if anyone finds out, it will ruin his "reputation")
  • Doing the "bravest" (most wolves think their actually quite foolish) stunts to show of to everyone
  • Playing around
  • Fighting

-Dislikes
  • Being embarrassed
  • Having things taken away from him
  • Being bored
  • Hunting.
  • Being patient
Histroy/Backround:{5000 max,500 min}
WIP

My name is Kai. I am not like other wolves. My father is Kemoro, the great warrior and hunter, and my mother is an unknown warrior of the Tribe. If you're wondering what the Tribe is, here's the answer: The Tribe is a group of wolves with powers, so it's basically a VIP wolf pack. Anyway, if your looking for my story, here ya go:

I was a pup when my mother left. My siblings and I were just beginning to eat meat. We were to small to understand that our mother would never come back. As we grew older, we realized that we were different. We were the only ones in the pack without a mother. One morning, I went on my first hunt. A couple of bigger wolves came over to me as I followed behind the adults. "Hi guys. What's up?" I asked them energetically. The biggest, most muscular one laughed. "Shut up you little runt. you don't belong here. Go back to the other weaklings in the pack. I bet your mother left because your so weak." I was aghast. Was this why my mother left? I was too busy in my own thoughts to notice the wolves around me. Suddenly one of them raised their paw and pushed me into a huge boulder. Blood poured from my back. I screamed, and the sound of thudding paws of adult wolves came close. "Let's run." The leader of the gang of wolves said, and took off, leaving me at the boulder. My father picked me up at the back of my neck, and ran towards camp. I heard faint laughter behind me, and saw the gang mocking me. I was filled with shame as my father gently put my down in the cold, spacious medicine cave. "Ebony! Come here! Kai is bleeding!" My father barked desperately. Ebony, the pure black healer walked over to me. "Oh my! What happened to him?" Ebony asked urgently in her soft whisper. "I don't know. I found him against a boulder. Please help him!" My father replied. I started feeling faint, and then I blacked out.
After what felt like hours, I woke up. I tried getting up, expecting my back to hurt. Surprisingly, my back was healed! Then I looked around at my surroundings. Where was I? That was when I saw my mother. I was with the Tribe.

Kennel:
Number P21
Name:
Jack Frost
He is usually referred to as Jack, and rarely ever Frost.
Breed:
Grey Wolf x Italian Wolf cross
Age:
Nine Months
Why do you want this animal? And what will you do for this animal?:
First of all, his design is amazing. I've been drawn to him as soon as iBrevity posted him on the PoD fan club. I'm totally in love with his design. I've already got many ideas for him, and I plan for him to be in my pack of canines; the Llanura Pack. His colors and tribal markings are just awesome, and his little masquerade mask is too perfect. I've been looking for a companion for Lalita, and I think Jack would be the right character for that role. I would write about his adventures and discoveries with Lalita, and his interactions with the rest of the pack. I'd get art of him when I get the chance and he would get a spot on my character site. And I'd love to try and draw him myself. Honestly, he gives me a lot of inspiration for stories, and I plan to love him a lot <3
Personailty:
Jack is an extremely loveable puppy and he is a total attention hog. He will pretty much to anything he can to get just a little bit more spotlight time. He rather playful and he loves to goof off when the time seems appropriate, or sometimes when the situation doesn't call for silliness. He's a funny young fellow and has a great sense of humor, especially when he has an audience. He likes to explore and he can be quite the trouble maker. He also enjoys annoying the adults of the pack. He can be somewhat of a mysterious fellow and the others believe he hides something behind that beautiful masquerade mask of his. Jack doesn't like to talk about the mask or of where he got it, but no ones knows why. He can hide his true feelings inside rather well, so of course not much true information is known about him. He is exceptionally good at giving someone the cold shoulder when he's not in the mood to talk, and sometimes he has his grumpy days like just about every other pup in the world. When he is feeling irritable and grumpy, it is best to avoid him as he would just ignore everyone anyways, and is more prone to snapping out.
Dislikes & Likes:

.::Likes::.
Attention - He can never get enough. He thrives in the attention of others and will try to get more whenever possible. He loves all sorts of attention, not matter what the consequences.
Adventures - He loves to explore the plains with Lalita. Jack loves the thrill of discovery and excitement of new places that come along with adventures.
Being an Annoyance - He finds it rather amusing. And it's just another way to get more attention, whether it be good or bad.
Lalita - Lalita is his absolute best friend. Jack likes to goof off and mess around with him. Also, the two usually go off exploring together, much to the adults' distaste. They also like to crack jokes together, no matter how lame.
His Mask - He cherishes the beautiful obsidian mask, a gift from his true mother. It is his only memory of her, as she abandoned him when he was rather young. Even though it brings back painful memories; he cannot stand to get rid of it either.
Jokes - He doesn't care if they're the lamest joke ever or comedy genius; he loves jokes. He loves to hear them and he loves to tell them to others. They brighten his day, and sometimes even brings him out of a grumpy mood.
The Cold - For some reason cold weather gives him comfort and a sense of security. His favorite season is Winter of course, and he never wants it to end. He adores snow, and he loves to play in it. Too bad there is very little in where he lives now.

.::Dislikes::.
Loneliness - This is the one thing he absolutely cannot stand. If he is alone, then he gets no attention, and that makes him feel sad and empty. Being alone will also eventually drive him insane, so Jack tries to have company at all times.

Histroy/Backround:
[Jack's PoV]
I sat in the fluffy, beautiful white snow as it fell on my cool pelt. I stuck my tongue out to catch the endlessly falling watery substance, and my other siblings were chasing each other in the snow. I laughed and joined in the fun, because well, why not? I bounded through the freezing snow and gained on one of my sisters. She let out a high pitched squeal and I tackled he. I yelled "You're it!" and dashed away from her as fast as I could, laughing. Mother called for us to come to her, she said there was something special for us. I bolted towards he as fast as I could; I had to be first, naturally. I skidded to a stop in front of my tall mother, and I could tell she was hiding something behind her. I tried to crane my neck to see what it was, but she scolded me and said "No, no Jack. You can't peek yet my son." I sighed and sat rather impatiently for my other siblings. Why was it taking them so long? Finally they came one by one, my lonely brother being the last of course. Our mother smiled and exclaimed "I have presents for you my children! First, for you Jack; a mask of great beauty. I found it in the streets of Italy, before I met your father. I've been saving it for one of my children." I stared at the mesmerizing object, was that beautiful thing really for me? I was surprised, but pleased at the same time. "Thank you so much mother! It's so gorgeous!" I happily cried. I can't believe she would give me something so important to her. "Go on, I want to see what it looks like on you." I bent down to the ground and shoved my face through the string and the mask, making sure it was securely on. It was somewhat dark behind the eye holes of the mask, but I felt wonderful. I struck a pose and asked "Well, how do I look mother?" She laughed and replied "You look handsome Jack." I smiled, I felt like I was on top of the world. I had such an amazing parent that cared for me, and I watched intently as my other siblings got their gifts as well. The comforting pristine snow fell on our close knit family, and I couldn't have been any happier.

Those days are over now. My happiness, and my joy; it is all gone. The wonderful cold weather and the lovely snow is no longer. I don't even have the places I loved when I was younger. I have absolutely nothing left at all. My mother left me alone on this fateful rainy day. I can't believe she just left me out there, left to fend for my own. I don't even know what she did with my other siblings. I was almost disgusted looking at the mask that lay before me on the ground, but I couldn't stand to throw my only life's treasure away. How could I? Tears started to form in my eyes and I looked down at the wet object in front of me. I slipped it onto my face and sighed. I could not destroy the mask, and yet it brought the pain of the absense of a mother's love to me. I sat in the pouring rain, unlike snow it made me feel depressed and lonely. At least the rain hid my tears. I had no idea where I was and I had no one to help he. How would I survive out here? If my mother had truely cared about me she woudn't have left me out here to die. Suddenly I saw my saving grace, a sunny yellow wolf looming over me. She smiled and I was so grateful to see her. Her smile grew and asked "Are you lost little one?" I shivered and stuttered "Y-yes miss. I cannot find my mother." Here eyes softened and said softly "I know how you feel. Follow me." She pattered off in the falling rain, and I scampered after her, hopeful of what might be waiting for me.

***Warning:
This form is no where near complete. I always add onto forms once I win a character. ***


"I'm not just an Acerbus Navi...I'm a Gypsy. And Savior to my kind."

Image

||Kennel||
Letter P, number twenty (P20), image above form.
||Name||
Gypsy Navi
||Why do you want this animal?||
I was scrolling down the kennels and she really caught my attention. I love the markings for more than one reason. I love raccoon-type stripes, tattoos and swirls. Plus the design looks kind of elegant, but cheerful and fun. The design also really reminds me of a close friend. She just looks like an awesome foreign girl who likes partying and having fun (which is like the friend I mentioned and my other friends and me also love partying/having fun). I really feel like I could easily connect to this character and make stories/poems/etc. involving this character.
||What will you do for this animal?||
I'll draw her, write poems and short stories featuring her. I'll also add her into my book and once I learn wolf anatomy I'll make a comic featuring her (I've always wanted to make a comic, but I don't have canine anatomy down, she gives me the perfect opportunity to start the comic and I believe she'll help motivate me to learn canine anatomy). She'll also be used on my site for a species I created as well as for another species (which also has a few separate purebred bloodlines, one of which she will be in) I created a long time ago.
||History/Background||
Just a normal Navi wolf born in Paris during the late 1400s, until she met a young gypsy who showed her what it was like to live as a gypsy.
||Art||
Coming soon! <3
||Other||
Acerbi is plural for Acerbus. Acerbus is a rare strand of astrums, both of which can be any type of animal. And the Navi are beings that come in any and all animals. They started off with three original tribes of each animal species and eventually some broke off and created new tribes. There are three main Navi bloodlines with several other bloodlines branching off.
All are my creations.
Crystal was Gypsy's real name, just so you know.
Hope you don't mind me adding my normal form onto this. And her story is a Hunchback of Notre-Dame-type setting (and yes, I stole the name Esmeralda just because I couldn't think of any gypsy-like names).

||Name||
Gypsy Navi
"Yeah...a boring name, I know."
||Namesake||
Gypsy- Gypsy is her self given name. She gave herself this name because at one point in her life she was the pet of a gypsy. This gypsy soon started calling her Gypsy because of her elegant look as well as her free-spirited, gypsy-like ways. She became attached to this name and thought it only right to re-name herself Gypsy in honor of her friend's memory and the memories they shared together.
Navi- Navi is the only part of her old name she kept. Gypsy is a Navi wolf and very proud of it. Every pureblood Navi has Navi somewhere in their name.
"I miss my gypsy friend, she was very dear to me."
||Nickname(s)||
Silence, Silence of the Gypsy, Silent Gypsy, Gypsy, Gyp, Sy, Crystal and Chrissy(by Jelli)
"I'm most commonly called Sy by friends, to strangers I'm often referred to as as Silence, Silence of the Gypsy, or Silent Gypsy. You may ask me why, but I won't tell..."
||Age||
Around 530
"Around 530, you're a genius, aren't you? How ever did you manage to figure that one out?" *eye roll*
||DoB (Date of Birth)||
Sometime in about 1480, unclear whether or not she even remembers her own birthday.
"I do remember my own birthday!"
||Origin||
||Mother's side <3||
Her mother came from a tribe of Navi wolves in Paris.
||Father's side <3||
Her father came from one of the original three tribes of Navi wolves. He lived in a tribe in Paris.
"Yeah, Paris girl through and through."
||Patronus||
Jelli
"My protector."
||Mate||
None, love someone who loves another (Jelli).
"I don't love anyone."
||Gender||
Female
"Obviously."
||Species||
Acerbus Navi wolf
"I'm a born Navi wolf and I was brought back as an Acerbus."
||Habitat||
Lived in Paris, but started traveling after she was brought back as an Acerbus.
"I do travel an awful lot."
||Diet||
Small mammals, birds, and even reptiles of sorts.
"Not really much to say."
||Pelt (Natural)||
Gray (fine, silver) and white.
"Silver, not gray! Gray is so dreary and boring."
||Pelt (Unnatural)||
Black tattoos gained when she was turned into an Acerbus.
"I'm rather fond of my tattoos."
||Eyes||
Change with her mood, a trait few Acerbi have.
||Neutral/Bored -.-|| Blue
||In love/Lust <3|| Hot pink (no/small pupils, darker shade of pink)
||Embarrassed ^^;;|| Pink
||Angry D:<|| Dark blue (no pupils)
||Joyful :D|| Lavender
||Excited/Squee ^O^|| Sea foam(-ish) green
||Surprised 8O|| Gray-blue
||Shocked o.O|| Electric blue
||Malicious >:D|| Dark purple (no pupils)
||Depressed/Upset :'(|| Gray (no pupils)
"Not exactly the colors you'd expect, but oh well."
||Voice||
Normally strong and confident, but soft and unforgiving.
"My voice is not unforgiving."
||Intelligence Level||
Extremely smart, but doesn't show off. She has a lot of common sense as well, but normally doesn't use it.
"I have no common sense, what are you talking about?!"
||Theme Song(s)||
"Soldier-" Goo Goo Dolls
"Just the title could be applied to me. Soldier. I've always kind of been like a soldier, marching on no matter how difficult it is.
The lyrics also apply, but describing me from Jelli's point of view.

'When you came back I knew you'd have a story
You need someone to ease the pain of living life
You're like a soldier in the fray, seeking shelter
from all the madness that you've seen raining down now.'


After I was murdered, my best friend, Jelli, always believed I'd come back. And I did. When I came back he knew I would have a story to tell. He actually told me something very similar to the second line. And truth be told, he's the one who does ease the pain of living life. I've seen more things than I care to admit and it's completely mad.

'I know things change, your world has slipped away
I know things change, but you're living like a soldier who's caught in the fray
Don't lose your faith, it's not so cold, it's not too late.'


When I came back as an Acerbus, I found many things changed. It turned my world upside down, my world slipped away. Jelli also said something similar to the third line once I started loosing my faith and giving up.

'When you were naive you were so invincible
and you laughed at anyone and anything that ever got in your way
But now the mirror shows the change and you don't see that
you're sinking back into the crowd, an echo fading.'

Before I died, I was naive. Blind to those around me and blind to what was happening around me. I never took anyone or anything that got in my way seriously. When I came back I changed, but I didn't realize it. I did start to sink back into the crowd like an echo fading. I used to be bold and exciting, but slowly I started turning into the others.

'And I never thought I'd see
you living on your knees
A slave to some disease
that holds you captive.'


I was a slave to some disease that held me captive. It was something that shocked Jelli, something he never thought he'd ever see.

'And you can look inside of me
but the answers that you seek
and everything you need
is all inside you.'


I tried to look to Jelli for answers, but he didn't have the ones I was looking for. I never realized that everything I needed, all the answers to everything, were inside of me."

||Personality|| Gypsy's personality is complex beyond imagination, so I will point out what I can. One is the side that Jelli brought back after she came back and started loosing herself. The other is the side she was when she came back, it's become bonded to her in times of worry or depression. Both sides are connected by some key points.

Free-spirited. Like a gypsy in the late 1400s, she is very free-spirited and loves freedom. She hates boundaries and limitations, she feels the stars should be the limit.
Bold. Gypsy doesn't care what others think of her. She doesn't spend her time wondering what others will think if she does something, she does it and observes their actions.
Funny. She's always joking around about everything. Gypsy is also very amusing and entertaining to others when she'd not trying. She'll say the funniest things and then look at everyone laughing and not understand why they're laughing.

Observant. She is always very vigilant and watchful. She notices everything around her, even something as simple as birds circling above. Gypsy never lets her guard down and takes great care in noticing any change in her surroundings, as it could be the difference between life and death.
Opinionated. Gypsy almost always has an opinion and she's not afraid to stand up for what she believes in.
Witty. She's smart and quick, both physically and mentally. She often acts on whims, never planning more than a paw step ahead. Gypsy can find her way out of pretty much anything.
Independent. She is very self-efficient. Gypsy doesn't like being alone, but she can be if she needs to be.

Other than that, you'll have to figure things out on your own.
"No comment."

How could a world so perfect crumble like the leaves beneath my paws? I don't understand what happened. Should I be asking why or how? If I try to save you, my world collapses around me. If I leave you here to die, I, myself, will surely die inside. It was your job to protect me,to save me, now it's my turn to return the favor...

||"My Little Warrior."||

I followed behind my father. The snow was deeper than I'd ever seen and I loved it. Jumping from set to set of his pawprints, I often fell into the snow. My father hadn't told me where we were going or who we were meeting, but I didn't care much. My father found it amusing that I was acting this way.

I pounced on my father's tail and he turned around, playfully, but gently, batting my muzzle. I ran away from my father and turned to face him. My haunches rose into the air, my front legs stuck out from underneath me, and my bushy tail waved in the air. My father was in the same position a distance away. He started running and tackled me. I slipped out from underneath my father and pounced on top of him.

"Quite the fighter, isn't she?" The voice had a slight echo because of all the ice and snow surrounding us. I jumped up and turned around to face a male wolf. Much to my surprise, he looked very similar to my father. "She's my little warrior." My father replied with a grin. The dark male smiled. "Brother, I have missed you at home." My father nodded, "As I have missed you. But we have more important things to talk about. Our brother's...ways." His face was stern.

My ears perked and I cocked my head with curiosity. "You have a family?" The brothers laughed in union. "Yes, little one, I do," His eyes were still worried, but his expression was friendly now, "What did you think, Crystal? I had no family at all?" My father chuckled. I looked at my my paws, "No, but I didn't know you had a family..." Again, the brothers laughed in union. 'Now that's scary. They laugh the same, even at the same time ! Next thing I know they'll be finishing each others sentences.' I thought. "Who's your other brother?"

"Nuage the Great."

||Present||

I sighed as I let my eye lids fall, feeling the cold rock against my side. Jelli entered the cave, his pelt dripping wet. I opened one eye and peered at him. He grinned at me, "Shouldn't you be asleep by now?" He asked, raising an eyebrow. "Shouldn't you be with the love of your life?" I responded, clearly agitated. Jelli didn't understand why I was so upset. After all, how could he when he was completely blind to my love? "I think someone's a bit tired today." Jelli teased, pawing gently at me.

"Don't touch me, you're soaking wet!" I laughed. A mischievous smirk played out on his face as he collapsed beside me. Jelli rolled over onto me, now on his back, and batted my muzzle and ears with his soaking forepaws. We both laughed as I tried to escape from the wet attack. I managed to get to my feet and leaped over him. He got to his feet and chased me. Jelli was throwing out his forelegs, much like a cheetah does, to trip me up. Finally, I reached the edge of the cave and stopped dead in my tracks. Jelli tackled me, both of us rolling out into the raging storm. I yelped and jumped to my feet, dashing back inside of the cave.

Jelli followed me back inside after remembering my fear of storms. "Sorry, Chrissy." He mumbled, laying down behind me. He started grooming my neck as I closed my eyes. The last thing I remember was his head resting on my shoulder as he said, "G'night, Chrissy."

||Little Actress||

I sighed as I walked along the streets of Paris, everyone was too busy to notice such a small she-wolf like myself. I turned a corner and saw a beautiful young gypsy with tan skin and wavy black hair. She was dancing and a few men dropped small gold coins into a hat beside her. The golden shiny circle plates on her purple dress matched the rimming. As I trotted towards her, the sun reflected off of the round, golden things and hurt my eyes. I kept up my pace, now with my eyes closed.

She bent down as I approached her, "Come here, girl." Warily I took a few steps forward. She picked me up, patted my head and set me back down. She resumed her dancing, but people now started to leave. I stared up in amazement, amazement that only a pup such as me would ever have. Slowly, I stood on my hind legs and started to walk around on them, mainly just trying to keep balance. The gypsy laughed and more people started to come towards us.

"So you're a little actress."

||Present||

I woke with a start, it was still dark and stormy outside. Jelli opened one eye and looked at me, "You always have trouble sleeping during storms...why?" He already knew the answer. Our camp was attacked on a dark, stormy night.

"I have a new story, would you like to hear it?" He asked softly. I nodded.

"There was once a great leader, Havoc, and he accomplished many great feats. Havoc always put his pack, his family, before himself. He wasn't perfect, as no one is, but some say that he was as close as anyone could be. His brother was always jealous of him, and vowed that he would see to his brother's downfall. When the time came, he died," Jelli began.

"Not laying down, but in a battle. With his own brother. Both of the brothers died, Havoc from loss of blood and his brother from a bite to the neck. As they lay there, side by side, dieing, they realized that killing was a sin. That is why killing is now a sin. The gods, seeing the meaning in the brothers' eyes as each stared at what they had done, granted the two brothers the one thing they both wished--a second chance to be true brothers. They died and two stars lit up the black sky, side by side moving 'round and 'round.

Now, all leaders, human even, who realize their sins and regret them, are united with their old family and foes in the form of stars...to have a second chance."


Jelli studied my eyes, they were hot pink with small, darker pink, pupils. He had yet to figure out what hot pink eyes meant and I was glad. "So now you have bright pink eyes, what does that mean?" He asked in amusement.

||Lunar Eclipse||

My eyes were closed as I listened to Jelli's breathing. We'd become inseparable over our three years of life. Our breathing was harmonious; he breathed out as I breathed in. A howl sounded at the border. We were under attack. Jelli, being the commander of war, jumped to his feet and raced out of the den. I followed. We were both shocked at the sight that lay before us. Bloody bodies lay limp on the ground with dark wolves standing over them. "Who are they?" I gasped.

"Nuage the Great's wolves."

~♥~

For our pack of about three hundred, this was the worst battle in history. By the time the war was over there were eighty deaths and more than a hundred wounded. Jelli was among the wounded, I was lucky enough to have gotten out with my life. Especially after facing my uncle.

||Present||

I woke to Jelli's nuzzling. "I think you need to take a look at where we are." He mumbled, nudging me. Sleepily, I stood up and walked to the cave entrance. Looking around, I realized we'd been here before.

The place I fell in love with Jelli. The place he met his love. The place my heart was broken.

I walked out into the opening. The damp, springy grass felt cool under my paws as I trotted over to a lake. I smiled, the water shone blue, clear as crystal. Allowing my legs to collapse under myself I laid down underneath a huge oak tree that had branches extending over the lake. Jelli watched from the cave entrance as I rolled around happily under the tree before walking over to me.

"So many memories..." His voice was content.

A WIP.

Kennel: 20.
Name: Night of the Dancing Moons. (Moon Dancer for short.)
Breed: She's a fox/wolf mix!
Age: If she was a human, she'd be 16.
Why do you want this animal?&What will you do for this animal?: I love the markings and how elegant they look compared with her smile that makes her look young and blue eyes add to it that she's intelligent. I like how she looks small too. I could easily see my self in this character because my friends tell me that my smile makes me look like I'm twelve. (Also, I'm short, but that's not the point.)
Personailty: Looks very cute and cuddly, but is also very sneaky and you should keep one hand on your wallet or purse at all times when around her and DO NOT under ANY circumstances, give her shaving cream or sugar unless you want to find your bed full of shaving cream or have her bounce around like she's mad. XD It's actually pretty amusing to watch her run around.
Dislikes&Likes: She has a sly smile that gets her marked as a trouble maker, and that's what she is. She also enjoys listing to guitar music and relaxing. She appears cute and cuddly but you better watch out. She loves to steal things, such as;
*Wallets.
*Purses.
*Shoes.
*Shaving cream.
*Light Bulbs.
*Cookies.
*and if you have anything personal, such as a diary, she'll find it and have read it by the time you realize it's missing.
Histroy/Backround:{5000 max,500 min}
WIP
Art:{Made by you this is all up to you through you don't have to do it but it shows your dedication}
WIP
Other:{If there is anything left} This is totally a WIP.
