Xiddeus

Name:Jerome Harris
Age:829
Race: Were-Bear
Appearance: Jerome  is every bit of his Bear heritage, even his build represents that.  Massive in size and strength, he stands head and shoulders above normal men, and a bit taller than most in his tribe.  His long black hair is usually braided into a single braid, though no hair grows upon his face.  His eyes are of a deep brown and mirror his fur when in bear form, which is usually how he is found.  A Grizzly in every aspect except temperament, for he finds that staying quiet and watching will prevail over quick and unthought action.
Orientation: Heterosexual
Station: Leader of the Bear Clans.
Weapons/Abilities: Jerome carries no weapons while he is a bear, his claws, teeth and strength are quite enough in most cases.  In man form he carries a bow and a quiver full of arrows, as well as a hatchet, serrated five times to look like a bear's claw.  He possess a keen sense of smell and hearing, things common to most bears, even as a man.
Biography/history: Jerome grew up in the oasis, and can remember when it was still fresh and clean of the taint of the other races.  He spent his early years constantly as a bear, learning quickly the ways of his people and of the land.  He has taken no mate in his life, as he has always been at war with one race or another, raiders, bandits and worse.
Personality:Jerome is the quiet big man in the back of the cave.  He prefers to watch for his enemies from cover and take them by speed and surprise.  When the days are calm and he finds no one that threatens his clan, he finds himself bored.  War is what he lives for, war is what he will die in, for that is the very essence of nature.  Kill or be killed.  Yet he knows that there is more to life than blood... but he has not found such yet.
For want of something better to say... sometimes nothing is best.

Very nice character and as I have already said in PM approved.  Happy writing!

My main:

Name: Malthias Sazyr

Age: 277

Race: Dragoon

Appearance: Malthias stands about nine feet tall, trapped in a hybrid form between his human and dragoon states as he is losing the ability to switch forms.

Orientation: Straight

Station: Seeker

Weapons/Abilities: Wielder of the cursed blade Xavarian (as seen in the picture), said to greatly enhance the power of the user while slowly driving him into madness. Malthias is a master swordsman and novice warlock, imposing the elements of shadow and fire with powerful spells as well as his massive blade, usually combining the tactics in his battles.

Biography/history: Seen by many humans as a prodigiously talented military strategist and combat artist, Malthias was at first an ally of the human race, born and raised in their care after his parents had supposedly been killed in one of the many wars centuries ago, just after his birth. Convincing him that they had saved his life, the humans deceived Malthias; he was stolen as a fledgling to be used as a tool in the human military's arsenal. After nearly two hundred years of violent sacrifice to the human legions, Malthias discovered the cold, dark truth of his existence; he was a puppet for lesser beings that he deemed righteous and pure. His heart set on revenge, he escapes the confines of his human domain and joins the Dragoons in their home high atop the mountains, seeking only to find those that would aid his cause against the blight that threatened to extinguish his bloodline from existence.

Personality: Malthias is a young, unruly and arrogant Dragoon. He is fierce, cold and calculating, never hesitant to seize the breath of life from any who stand in his path. Fancying himself a bit of a genius, he has always felt disconnected from other beings; of course, he has spent most of his time around mortals. The dragon blood in him rages furiously, seeking to rob him entirely of his humanity as he slips further into thoughts of hatred, his will fully consumed by vengeance.
There was no beginning
There will be no end
There is only now

So yes enjoy your trip and feel free to join us when you return.  Shall be looking forward to seeing your Dragoon Character.

#86
Name: Muireann   (Ann in human form)

Age: Unknown

Race: Exotic Mermaid

Appearance: Mermaid Form :  Muireann does not have the typical tail of a mermaid instead she has normal human legs.  Her feet however are more like as scuba divers fins.  And she has webbing between her fingers (except between forefingers and thumbs) to aid in swimming.



Appearance: Human Form - Her ears even in human form remain nearly the same shape so that she is always seen with the same earrings as in her Exotic Mermaid form.  She also wears the same clothing in both forms.  Along with a belt that fits around her waist of similar materials and design to carry her daggers.  In the cylinder on her hip she carries her wrapped up sandals that have leather bottoms but lace up to her knees with flexible silver lacing that creates similar patters to that of which is on her breasts.   



Orientation:  Bi

Station: Gardian/Seeker

Weapons/Abilities: In both forms wields two 12inch double edged daggers.  Also in both forms she has the ability to use her voice in much the same way as Sirens drawing those she wants to her and by the same token can drive who ever she wishes away.  Her voice can also be used to heal or maim.  Muireann has the ability to live outside of the water for up to six months of the calender year. 

Biography/history: Born in the depths of the Aislin Haven Lake, Muireann has spent all of her adult life as one of the guardians of the Mermaids.  Very little is known of her childhood for there are very few who would still remember and she never speaks of her own past.  After the arrival of the Were's to the Aislin Haven.  Muireann volunteers to become a Seeker going out to find those who have not yet made it to the Valley.

Personality:  Muireann is a very emotional person meaning she feels most everything very deeply.  Whether those emotions be love or hate in anger or at peace.  While she is very capable of keeping these emotions under full control there have been times when she has allowed her self to live out her emotions to the extreme. 

Bella90

Station:  Guard/ warrior
Weapons/Abilities: apart from the obvious, She can make her wings stretch out of her back while still being in human form, Her love of flight and being in the air gave her the ability to control it. as an affinity. She is extremely talented in archery.
Biography/history: She was born to a large clan, growing as an apprentice to a wizard, she learned a lot of tricks, best of all, living with him to over thirty years gave her the affinity to control the wind, it was because the old wizard saw how much she loved the air and being up in the sky, he gave her an amulet, as long as the amulet's around her neck, or anywhere attached to her she'll be able to control the element. the Wizard constantly spoke of the amulets of the elements, and of their power, but he never found other than the air. and he gifted it to her before she left the village ready to seek her own adventures. She had learned a lot from him, and would always refer to him for knowledge she gained. After years and years she ended up in the forest, or up in the high mountains watching man-kind and the dragoons from afar not wishing to interfere in a fight that wasn't hers.
Personality:  Strong, analyzing, moody, frank, loyal, persistent, quiet, caring (in a sense to opposite of careless), can be really aggressive.

Nim

Name: Vanyel

Age: Unknown

Race: Dragon

Appearance:  As a Dragon   (Note the cliffs behind him in this picture are no where near high enough to be the cliffs that the waterfall comes down.)



Human Appearance:



Orientation: Straight


Weapons/Abilities: Fire Breathing

Biography/history: Vanyel had been born and raised in the deep catacombs under the mountains far beneath the great waterfall that stands at the end of the Valley.  Where there are only two entrances to his lair the first being a cave that is hidden behind the waterfall itself the second is high in the shear cliff face of the mountains that face into the valley.  He had been there to greet Yintainia when she had returned to her homeland after suffering the great loss of her mate and her son.  Vanyel has rarely made an appearance within the valley during the daylight hours preferring the dark lonely hours of night when his black scales nearly made him invisible in the nights sky save for being a shadow below the moon and stars. 

The great black dragon had not been in the valley when the Dragoons had made their generous offer to Were's in having them come and stay in the valley.  He had been out in the world seeing for himself what the world of men had been up to.  So he knows nothing of the great hustle and bustle of this new community within the walls of his ancestral home. 

Personality:  Vanyel has lived long enough upon the face of the land to grow in wisdom and knowledge.  Generally he possesses a generous and kind heart.  Slow to anger but swift to act upon his own judgments.

Odin

Name: Talarez
Age: Unknown
Race: Dragoon
Appearance:

Station: Exhiled
Weapons/Abilities:

Talarez and his blade are very lightweight.
Biography/history:

When the war first began, many lives were lost in both the initial attack, and the counter attack. Human mages would join battalions of soldiers in the fight, being the most powerful weapon they had, and the most valuable. When the king finally received word that he only had a few Mages left, he pulled them from the front, and began having the remaining teach them.

He couldn't teach everyone magic - he needed soldiers to hold off the invading armies and to guard him. They couldn't be learning spells and fighting the war at the same time.

The Grand Mage Marcias saw the death and destruction covering the land. Casualties on both sides only saw his brothers fall when the king sent them off to die. Finally, he took himself and hid from the world, crafting the weapon to win the war. After some time, he found it. Imbuing his staff's orb with the magic of old, he marched. Incinerating, Banishing and Dominating his way across the kingdom, one opponent after another fell before his mighty staff.

The Dragoons could not let him continue the slaughter of their people. A battle was set. Some of the finest warriors were placed directly in the path of the Grand Mage Marcias.

One of the most devastating battles in history took place in the village. Talarez's two sons stood and fell beside him, along with his only brother. Lost and destroyed, Talarez rushed toward the Mage. The Mage passed him off as any other foolish warrior, and sent a spell at him. The spell ravaged him, but did not kill him. In shock, the Mage allowed him to draw closer, and Talarez's cleaved him through the shoulder, and out the hip. Both sides retreated.

The staff was not destroyed, but even on recovery... No one could use it.

Talarez's physical form was darkened, and his aura was destroyed, giving off a dead feeling. Upon arrival home, he was taken to the Council, and they spoke with him, before finally deciding to exile him, though thanked him deeply for what he had done for their race, and sympathized greatly for the sacrifice he had paid.

Talarez's mate, Lisora, died of starvation after her sons, step brother, and mate did not return. Like a love bird, they never live without the other. Talarez was not told of her death.

Despite being exiled, Talarez did not leave the land of the Dragoons. Instead, he was sealed deep underground in a Prison, set in the magical equivalent of a coma.

Personality:
Distant, but caring.

Akasma

Oh goodness you guys have been busy! Characters approved Nim, Bella90, and Odin. Pretty please put a copy of them into the approved character sheet. You guys are an amazingly creative and imaginative group, I am having a ton of fun already! =D *huggles for everyone, gives Nim a kiss on the cheek* Now I am off to write another post!  ;D

Demik

Name: Miluiel (Mil-oo-ee-el)

Age: 20

Race: Exotic - Unicorn

Appearance: Unicorn form -
Humanoid form- Miluiel has worked hard to try and perfect her Human form but it still isn't quite there yet. She appears to be a stunningly beautiful young woman of about 16 with long white hair. Usually her beautiful face is mostly hidden behind her long, shaggy bangs though. Her eyes remain the same glassy black. She also keeps her sparkling horn though it is smaller at only 4 inches. Her torso is Human enough, though her nails are a glossy light gray, her legs, however, remain horse legs including her long tail. They do change enough for her to stand and walk upright. Normally she tries to hide this fact by wearing long, flowing dresses and gathering her tail into a loose bun but it is hard to disguise the clopping of her hooves.

Orientation: Straight

Station: Lost and lonely.

Weapons/Abilities: Her abilities are weak for a Unicorn because she is so young. She can heal minor wounds. She can purify poisons and toxins in the air, water, or body. She is best at concealing herself using her magic. She knows nothing offensive except to kick with her hooves.

Biography/history: Miluiel watched her small herd be slaughtered 8 years ago by Humans to be harvested for their magical bodies. The only reason she escaped was because they had been teaching her how to conceal herself. When the Humans attacked her parents screamed at her to not show herself no matter what. She had to just stand there and watch as they were killed and then butchered. Once the Humans were finally gone she ran as fast as she could. A few months later she was set upon by another group of Hunters. She barely managed to escape them but she was badly wounded. A kind wizard found her nearly dead in the forest. He nursed her back to health but more than that once she got her strength back he performed a spell on her. Knowing if she only had her Unicorn form she would always be in danger he tried to give her a Human form as well. It worked somewhat. At first she had a more humanoid body but she still looked mostly like a smaller Unicorn who simply walked on two legs. He told her that was the best he could do but if she added her magic and practiced she could master the form. Over the years she has practiced and now she is able to look more than half Human. While not enough to fool the Humans into thinking she is one of them it is a start and a work in progress. She actually enjoys this new form and spends most of her time in it.

Personality: Shy, quiet, kind, curious.

Nim

Nice job on your second character Demik.   

Both Demik and Odin please put your characters up in the Accepted Character thread thanks.

Lady Kitsune

#93
For approval.   ;D

Name: Shima

Age: Unknown

Race: Therianthrope.  For the moment a black wolf.

Appearance:  Silver haired and silver eyed, Shima moves with predatory grace.  Small and lithe she seems to dance.  Pale of skin, she at times seems ethereal, especially around the full moon.  Her clothing seems like silver metal but moves like silk. 

Orientation:  She is mostly straight but has been known to take a female lover if it fancies her.

Station: Shima is alone at the moment, a wanderer.

Weapons/Abilities: Shima carries a strange silver dagger.  Sometimes it's the size of an eating knife and if you blink it can be the size of a short sword, perhaps longer.  On the pommel is a beautiful Moon Opal and is carved intricately with old runes and animals of all types.  Shima is odd, she seems to be able to do things at times and then sometimes not. She can create a silvery light and hide in shadow.  She also seems to be immune to some magics.

Biography/history: Shima has an unknown history.  She seems to be suffering from some kind of memory loss.  She can remember being surrounded by many living in harmony but the humans came and then she can't remember more than that.  The only thing she does seem to know is she is afraid of deep water.

Personality:  Shima has a ready smile and seems innocent enough.  Don't let that fool you.  She may not know what she can do but when she releases her magic the consequences can be odd indeed.  She also has a furious temper which she holds in check...barely and is prone to grandiose outbursts.  Most might find her just plain...odd.  She seems to know things she shouldn't and if someone asks her how she knows she shrugs.  What a little mystery Shima is.

I am working on it, I swear!

Nim

Very beautiful Character  Lady Kitsune.  I think that Dirk shall fall instantly in love.  Please go ahead and copy your character to the approved character sheet.  And welcome to Illestra.  You should find all the links you need on the first post.

Demik

Name: Nafrit
Age: 350
Race: WereCat (Lioness)
Appearance: Human form: Pale green eyes, 5'6" tall


Anthro form (Except her hair is the same black and she wears the same outfit as in her Human form): 6' tall

Pure cat form:

Orientation: Straight

Station: Leader of her pride, willing to be leader of WereCats in the valley if they accept her.

Weapons/Abilities: Human and Anthro form: Her polearm (pictured in first photo), able to use fire magic easily in both forms. Pure cat form: Teeth and claws, some of her fire magic but not as well as in her other forms.

Biography/history: Nafrit's pride hailed from a land of desert. They called themselves The Pride of the Sun. They had made their home along a great river which flowed through the desert, bringing life to the barren area. They had been a large pride and had a large territory they called their own. They lived next to the river except in the months when the great river flooded the area then they moved away from it's banks into the desert. Nafrit and her husband Aten had been the leaders of the pride. They had 4 children, two sons and two daughters. Humans had decided they wanted the area as their own though and had begun a war with the pride. Many lives were lost including Aten and one of their daughters. They finally fled to the northeast. Disease, treacherous, unfamiliar territory, Humans and other creatures thinned their numbers even more. Nafrit lost one of her sons in the trip. Eventually a seeking party from the Dragoons found the ragged band and brought them to the valley. A pride which had once numbered in the hundreds was now down to only 20. Despite losing everything Nafrit has kept them together and tried to keep their hope up. Now that they have a place they might be able to call home again their spirits are beginning to lift. They have been in the valley for about a month. Her daughter recently gave birth to a beautiful little boy, Nafrit's new pride and joy.

Personality: Strong, firm, loving, kind, can seem harsh at times, always thinking of others.

((Just a note: If anyone wants to take on the part of her son feel free. I'm going to NPC her daughter and son-in-law off an on. If no one takes him after awhile then I'll NPC him now and then too.))

Nim

Very nice Demik.  I really liked her history.  Please move over to the approved character sheet when you get the chance.
