aroefex Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 Among the dense trees and unclaimed grass, deep into the heart of a large island lies a small den carved into a giant tree. Within lies an orange striped creature with tall, twisted black horns scurrying around with a multitude of dyes of several colors, a small jar of teal paint clutched in her nimble fingers.Eventually she notices someone lingering by the entrance and turns to look. "Oh, uh... hey there? Do you need something?" ----- Arewe lives with her trusted friends on a large forested island. Her trade consists of art for other necessities and imports though she doesn't do that much so she doesn't get overwhelmed. She rarely lets others in to live with her unless they have done a lot of favors for her or had known her for a long time. Arewe hates confrontation and will often try to avoid it, retreating if she needs to. Despite the island's harmless forest appearance, there's a lot more looming in the woods... ----- Inhabitants Arewe The island's first inhabitant. She often draws. Even if she's non-confrontational, that doesn't mean she gets excited at getting her paws dirty. Arewe has a degree of detestment to creatures who still continue to maintain a crush on her even after she rejects their advances. Osseus She was given the title "Child of Bones" after the rest of her tribe saw her. She is naive and lively and had been the first to be immortalized after catching Arewe's eye. Cinders The mate of Pestilence(Spotted creature to the right of him) and a cherished prince. He is confidant and brash, eager to befriend those he take a liking to. Despite his friendliness, he gets easily jealous. Pestilance He had been called an Ill Omen, literally. He was touched by the goddess of illness, donning the red coat adorned by spots meant to represent bulbous infections and had been cursed by an illness that still plagues him. He still lives to his fullest as he is under care of Luckless. Luckless Destined to be almost miserable her entire life, she was an absolute klutz. Leech were pulled to her like magnets and she would lose out on a life with her childhood friend and love, remembering him all too late. To escape her grief, she ran off with Pestilence and Cinders to Arewe's abode. Niveus Despite being a rogue male, Arewe thought he would still make a wonderful addition to the tribe since Osseus had decided to adopt him as her big brother. He watches over her. Looming. You wouldn't want to seperate the duo now, would you? Sparrow Sparrow might have been enraged by the prospect that she didn't have wings, so she grew muscles in their stead. That's what Arewe thinks anyways. Carindal and Canary They are two brothers who might as well have been twins. Shame they weren't. Carindal is the red one and Canary is the yellow one. Sunlight She spent her time on a trunk, calling for a mate. She didn't expect a female wanderer to come up. Nonetheless, she is grateful for her companion and devoted mate. Isla Most of her history had been shrouded in mist as she had appeared to Sunlight, enticed by her singing. She continues to follow Sunlight to this very day/ Queen She holds herself in a regal regard, and frequently regulates the island's inhabitants for Arewe since the little artist is awful at governing. Glidder Though regarded as pretty... his personality is rather interesting to say the least... Arewe's advice is that don't approach him unless you want him to make you feel like you narrowly escaped a rogue male by just using his words. Those Monstrosities "Hey! What the heck?! No no no no no, get out of here!! This information is classified!" -Arewe -------------------- "Anyways that's the end of our tour. You may stay as a guest if you like but don't go into the woods, mkay?" -Arewe 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that.“ Arewe hears something shuffle in the woods and turns to chase it back in, “Hey! No! Bad!

Except for a winged cracker jaw perched on Arewe’s den. “I try to disencourage her from making these things, but does she ever listen? Nooo... She had to go ahead make them, and they multiply like rabbils...” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although Arewe cleared a path to the only ports out, it’s still not as safe as anyone would like for it to be.” She began forward, refraining from her use of wings.

(🤔 hmmm) They arrive to the ports without any trouble and the winged one stopped. “Alright, we are here. But first, rub the soles of your paws against the flowers before going. Then leave for home.” She sat by, waiting for Mikkin to remove any possible parasites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She stares at the flowers, squinting before nodding. “Go ahead, and have safe travels. If you find something writhing under your skin, don’t be afraid to come back and we will gladly remove it.” She waved with her wing and watched Mikkin go.

aroefex Posted March 5, 2019 Author Share Posted March 5, 2019 It woke up, peering out at the world from its sealed pit. When it was first trapped, it thought it could claw through those bars, but it appeared to be more sturdier than it appears to be. It prowled around, tusk glinting in the sun light, staring up. Those inferiors had already thrown him it’s scraps of food, though they seemed to be getting progressively better and better in quality each day. His captor is a bit strange apparently. It had been a month since he had came to consciousness and he, of course, went with his first instinct and tried to abduct a wingless bird who’d scratched and pecked him until his creator and her ragtag group had knocked him out and put him here. He wouldn’t be locked up anymore. After making sure no one was coming, he dug away at the walls of his pit to reveal a tunnel. Continuing up the tunnel, he scratched and broke through the grass surface and taking in the fresher air, he ran. Eventually he’d tire but found the village. When before it had been sweet swelling to him, now there was something foul smelling about the nichelings that inhabited the area and he briefly went away. It took a while but he’d find the ports. Without looking back, he’d jump to wherever his mind took him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elf Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 Lenaea slowly shifted forward, land not being the greatest place for a creature like her. She turned towards Queen, shuffling forward a few more steps. "Can I swim across?" She looked over. "It would be faster" she then quickly added 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don’t allow swimming in undesignated areas, not anymore...” Queen gave a sigh and looked off into the sky. “In fact, we don’t have aquatic anybodies who have been selected for the job since the last time.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
