Welcome to Gaia! ::

"I don't knof if there are any villages nearby, but I live with mom and dad in a shrine not too far away from here. It's about a day's walk from here for a human I think." he yawned a bit. "If you want I could give you a ride, though I'm afraid we can't offer you much. We live a bit isolated, so we don't get many visitors." He streched a bit and flapped his wings a bit to get rid of the last sleepyness. "By the way, my name is Bael." He sniffed a bit in the air, as it seemed like there was someone else nearby. "Aren't there any humans with sensible sleeping habits these days?" he thought to himself.

"Oh it's nothing, really" he answered. "I just felt the scent of another human around here, that's all. I haven't met many of your kind, I usually run errands to the manakete villages. You could say I'm sort of a mailman." He winked. "Wanna se a little trick?" Without waiting for an answer, he flew up out of the tree. When he came back down again he wasn't the at least mostly humanlike boy anymore. He peeked trough the branches with his golden dragonhead, wondering how she would react, but also what the other human would do.

Name: Odik
Age: 24
Gender: Male
Race: Kodiak
Bio: Odik is part of a race known as Kodiaks, humanoid bears with shamanic abilties with the forest and self-proclaimed "Protectors of the Forest". Like his race, Odik studies the trees, leaves, and other inhabitants to heighten his abilities and to prepare for his journey deeper into uncharted areas where he will begin a new village.
Personality: Is stern and dutiful like the rest of his race. Everything he does is in the name of his village. This has caused him to be something of a loner.
Appearance: Short for his kind, Odik is only 6'2. The Kodiaks tend to resemble bears whom stand on their hind legs with the balance of a human. His muscled limbs are covered in a thick mat of chestnut brown fur able to repel lesser weapons such as arrows and short blades. His eyes are a deep hazel and his arms are riddled with teal-coloured markings displaying the spells he learned.
Quotes: "For my Ancestors." "If it must be done." "Halt! In the name of the Kodiak!"
Extras: Like a bear, he has inhuman stregnth. Enough might to shred through a tree with one swipe, but would rather use his magic than destroy that which he protects.

Ivy felt a tremor go through her body, and something glowed in her pocket. Pulling out a talisman from years ago she noticed the center gem was glowing. A magical creature was nearby. Thinking as she pulled on her thick black gloves she wondered what it could be. There were so many possibilities and she really didn't want to meet any of them. Ivy decided it was best to continue to go in the direction she had been traveling, she could see a clearing ahead and decided it would be a good place to rest.

Walking forward into the clearing caused the talisman to grow brighter and Ivy started to rub her hands together, a blue glow starting to seep through the gloves. She heard a snap of a branch above her and she looked up, poised to attacked. She stopped short, up there was a young girl and-a dragon? That must have been what thetalisman was picking up. Still poised to attack she yelled," What the hell are you doing up there?"

Ivy's eye twitched slightly, this was beyond weird. 'I'm yelling up to this girl and all she's doing is asking if I'm lost??' she dropped her glowing hands to her side, 'How much did I have to drink last night?' She looked back up, blowing the hair out of her face, "Err...actually I am. Do you have any idea where I should be going?"

Since he couldn't talk in his dragon form, he transformed back into his original shape and looked down. "Sorry, I don't have a clue where you're going." he answered. "If you want, you can come with me and my friend to my home." He turned back to Pen. "Is that a boy or a girl down there? It looks like a boy, but smells like a girl."

"Good, then it's settled. Climb up in the tree. There's not enough space for me to lift from the ground." Bael got some distance between the tree and himself again, hid under his wings and came out again as the much bigger golden dragon he was. He managed to land in the tree again, flapping his wings slightly so the weight wouldn't make the tree break, and nodded for the girls to climb up on his back.
