Open Species - Freya's Eldrcats - Read!!

Postby woolly » Wed Jul 08, 2015 10:55 am

Freya's Eldrcats
Ymir's Skullehunds . Rune Converter . Color Guide . Reference


Freya is fabled to be the Norse goddess of love and fertility, yet also war and death. She rides a chariot pulled by two cats and when hovering, they scatter morning dew, sunlight, and spring flowers. When the legend of the great war between light and dark begun, Freya's shed amber tears which assumed the shape of cats, friendly felines but deadly when challenged. Especially true of the Rjukas, the winged cats. They fought Ymir's Skullehunds, driving them back inch by inch until a stalemate happened upon them. Emotions have been calm for centuries, but the 'hunds haven't given up their relentless pursuit of the world and the Eldrcats are keen of this.



Attributes

Amber Eyes
Eldrcats are only ever seen with red, yellow, amber, or near white eyes! Heterochromia Is heard of within the breed, though it is uncommon.

Tail
Individuals can have different tails or multiple.

Types
from most common to most rare
Viortaca - defense ; often kind and wise cats who stay off the battlefield unless their homeland is threatened
Mjotuor - fate ; cats who can accurately sense or cause impending death, destruction, or widespread fear~ most often warriors
Rjuka - flying ; the winged cats who operate as anything from messengers to warriors
Angan - delight ; eldrcats with a passive streak who provide cheer and guardianship to their town and companion
Astugr - loving ; cats of kindness, they bring mass hope and fortune during times of need
Kappi - champion ; extremely rare cats, winged or not, with blue in their eyes~ able to harness elemental power

Rune
Runes or symbols are marks given to Eldrcats throughout their lives and they can have anywhere from one to thirty runes. You are allowed to add runes to your Eldrcat as you see fit, but they must be of Norse origin. Runes can be the cat's name, a personality trait, it's companion's name, etc. They provide security and luck, and when in great distress have been heard to ail the cat with magnificent powers for a short time.



Your Role

You enter this fabled land as a new persona so choose a side; light or dark, or rebel. Become passive, become aggressive it is your choice and you must face the consequences. Fortunately, you don't have to face them alone. Work alongside either Eldrcats or Skullehunds as your most loyal companions. They will defend you till death and if you truly realize the importance of this war, you would too. There is no limit as to how many you make for yourself and others, so feel free to trade or gift your companions if you'd like. But if you wish to keep either cat or hound then raise them, give them runes throughout their lifetime and mark your own self with runes of courage as well. There is no limit as to how many personas/characters you create but one human cannot own both cat and hound. In this world there are humans, light and dark elves, and jotuns (giants), design as you wish.


-multiple eldrcats can be owned by one persona, they're very social
-feel free to take off site, sell for profit, do whatever you like just give me credit for the lines and species
