-Characters-




Name: Astra
Age: About 18 if in human years...
Gender: Female
Weapon: Small dagger for protection
Occupation: Healer
Picture (if you have one): http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b12/Atsuko_Yutaka/Centaur.jpg
Character History: Astra loves animals. Has since she was little. At her side is a little puppy named Perttu that follows her wherever she may wonder. Her favorit place to roam is down by the beach, the feel of the sand beneath her hooves just makes her day. She's a happy go lucky little lady, until somebody pushes a wrong button that is. So you might want to watch out.

Username: Alice -poptart- 2041
Name: Meka Kel
Nickname: Meka.
Age: 18
Sex: Female
Appearance (pictures are preferred): http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a285/alice2041/Centaur_by_cashmerekiss.png
Occupation: Farmer
Weapon: Scythe
Tempermant: Friendly and flirtatious although she primarily looks out for herself

Username: Colour Kid
Name: Cybelle
Nickname: None
Age: 19
Sex: Female
Appearance (pictures are preferred): http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v253/Jenniechan88/rubysandhoofs.jpg
Occupation: None
Weapon: None
Temperament: Easily offended, snobbish
History: Cybelle comes from a long line of noble and rich centaurs. She has had a very cushioned life up until now. She doesn't know if her parents survived the fire or not because they sent her along without them.

Username: x_ exorcist-delight _x
Name: Khazz
Nickname: None
Age: 19
Sex: Male
Appearance: Avatar (or signature)
Occupation: Freelance warrior/adventurer
Weapon: Crossbow, small dagger, horns
Temperament: Witty, slightly arrogant
History: Seemingly lost his memories, Khazz has spent the last few years of his life wandering the lands, taking any job to put food in his belly. He recently became a freelance warrior, willing to work for anyone who pays him (or feeds him). Through this, he learned about his knack for fighting, which caused him to become a wee bit arrogant. Like most young men, he can sometimes get impulsive, saying or doing things withought a second thought. However, unless you are deemed a threat (or if he was hired to off you), he is a sweet, fun loving guy to be around.

Username: danger0uslypink
Name: Xeonix [Zee-onyx]
Nickname: Xee [Zee]
Age: 17
Sex: Female, but doesn’t really look or act it
Appearance: Avatar for now; avi art in the works
Occupation: None
Weapon: Rapier
History:
Born into a average centaur family, she was separated from her herd durring a large fire. She was found by the son of a wealthy soldier, who thought she was a strange looking horse, and was taken to his manor. Though the boy was later corrected by servants and others working within his family's land, he wanted Xee to stay with him as both a playtoy and a playmate. Xeonix was quick to latch onto the boy, not wanting to have to face the world alone so young and lived with the boy's family since. Unlike most centaurs, due to her exposure to other races, she tends to lack a fear of wingged or two legged ones. Another quirk would be her tom boyish nature: though she is a female, she is as rough and tough as a boy (with looks androgynous enough to match).
Personality:
Sarcastic, dark humored and somewhat on the arrogant side, Xee doesn't exactly radiate lady-like behavior. She's the first one to make a witty remark in bad times, the one who makes that loud, embarrassing speech when someone returns from a battle, and the one who puffs a cloud of smoke in your face when you ask her to put out her cig. While not the most polite girl, she isn't dangerous. If she is your friend, you can count that she will be the first to back you up. She tends to act more boy-ish.

Username: Merily
Name: Merily Pronarius
Nickname: Meri
Age: centaur equivalent of mid-20's
Sex: Female
Appearance:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v48/MeriGreenleaf/centaursmaller2.gif
By default she has tan skin on the human half, red hair, blue eyes and blue horns; however, as a bard she specializes in illusion spells, so she occasionally will make herself have different color horns, hair, etc, or even look like someone of a different race (for a limited amount of time). The whiskers on her face aren't actually whiskers, they're just painted on; she uses them to represent her connection to her familiar.
Occupation: Bard
Weapon: Bow and weak magic
Temperament: Friendly and cheerful, but since she's got a wanderlusting spirit and travels a lot, she doesn't have close friends besides her sister.
Character History: Meri is a bard who is also trained in magic (although weak) and can use a bow, although she doesn't like fighting; she'd rather talk her way out. Her only family is her twin sister; her parents died when they were teenagers. She has a familiar (a black cat), but is an animal lover, so other animals tend to flock to her.

Name: Vanaran [Vanny]
Age: About 17 in human years
Gender: Female
Weapon: usually a pair of hand-scythes [bow for mid-to-long range]
Occupation: tracker/seamstress
Picture: http://vanaran.deviantart.com/art/My-Gaia-Avvy-93724655
Character History:
Vanaran was always busy working for others in the small town near the main village in the woods. Her skill with the needle and the loom was well known although it was not her greatest joy.
Her best friend, Valran, was an expert archer and she often spent every spare moment with him. He was a member of the guard and was assigned to keep the humans from finding the hidden towns.
It was Valran's time off and he and Vanaran were practicing their archery when the first whiff of smoke alerted them to the danger. Valran rushed to do his duty but Vanaran would not leave his side even though being 17 and 6 years younger than him she was completely unprepared for what happened next.
The forces sounded the alarm that sent the inhabitants of the towns running as a select fire centaurs remained behind to hide their path.
Valran was ambushed and Vanaran rushed to his rescue but their efforts were in vain.
Both were captured and bound. On their way back to the human camp Valran attempted to free them both and was killed, his body thrown into the sea.
Devistated, Vanaran no longer found strength to resist as she was taken into a makeshift corral and chained where she was beaten and questioned about the others of her kind.
But she would not speak. She would never betray Valran.

Name: Norofel Arcadia
Age: New adult in the centaur world. She recently has become more than a foal, however is still considered a young centaur.
Gender: Female
Weapon: Twin daggers, hidden in her jacket. The daggers have roses at their hilts, with thorned "vines" crawling the blade. She uses a secret switch to make the "thorns" drip poison when she wishes to kill.
Occupation: A hopeful rogue. She is looking everywhere for a rogue to apprentice beneath, but has had no luck so far.
Picture (if you have one): http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a290/Norofel/gaia/Norofelyay.jpg
Temperament: Shy and standoffish at first glance. She can be sharp-tongued when provoked. She only truly opens up as she gets to know a person. She frequently shows her humorous side, and isn't one to let an "inappropriate moment" get in the way of her laughter.
Character History: Noro's mother died early on in her life. She's never met her father. She spent her childhood stealing from her fellow centaurs. During the fire, when the other centaurs escaped, she attempted to steal all that she could, leaving her with the expensive outfit she wears today, and a nice tinkling pile of gold in her pocket. However, since the fire was so quick to destroy all that it could, she did not get much else. She is still poor, and will be likely to steal when she finds that living an honest life can cause starvation.

Young Astra stood at the oceans edge as the water hit at her hooves gently. She looked over her shoulder at the smoke rising from the forest and heaved a heavy sigh. "Stupid humans," she muttered to herself. She shook her head some and looked down at the small dog at her side. "Perttu, you're going to have to learn how to keep very close to me, I can't risk a human finding you and following you to the herd," she said as she leaned down some to stroak the dog's head.

Meka looked around, she didn't know if others had gotten out, she only knew that she was now stranded on a beach in the open. She didn't dare call out in case human were near. She instead shuffled around, the sand felt so strange under her hooves, she she had seen the ocean but she had never come out of the trees. Walking along the shore she coward the first time the waves hit her legs. Meka kept her eyes open for any of her kind.

Astra gazed out at the horizon. She sighed softly as the sun beat down on her. "Well Perttu, I always loved the beach... but I didn't realize things would come to this," she claimed looking down at the dog. She brushed her wind blown hair from her eyes before she picked the small creature up and placed him gently on her rump and started to search for the others that had been chased out by the fire.

Meka looked around, she didn't like being so out in the open, she found herself brushing her hair away from her face every few minutes. Walking along the beach she found that it was harder to move in the sand, it came up around her hooves and tried to trap her. Finally a sight she thought she wouldn't see, "Astra!" She called out forgetting where she was, running over Meka shuffled in the sand. "I'm so glad I found you, I thought I was alone."

Astra couldn't help but smile some. "I'm not the only one to make it out... I'm so glad to find that out," she said. "My... aren't you a bit clumsy in the sand," she said with a light snicker. Her hand covered her mouth some as she tried to stop her slight giggling. "You'll get used to it, eventually you'll love the feeling of the sand beneath your hooves and the cool ocean breeze in your hair," she said as she looked at Meka.

"HEY, IS ANYONE THERE?" Cybelle called out, sliding down the slight decline that separated the forest floor from the beaches sand. The temperature was much higher out in the open sun without the trees to shade her. She wasn't exactly sure what had happened. Only that her parents had awoken her from her midday nap in a complete frenzy and she soon found herself fleeing from the village with orders not to stop until she came to the ocean. Cybelle was exhausted and wiping the disgusting sweat from her forehead, she bent her legs to sit down.


(I have to go. I'll probably be on tomorrow. Don't leave me behind! :c )

Astra looked up quickly. "Does she want us to get found by the humans?" she asked as she watched Cybelle. She sighed softly with a shake of her head. "Spoiled little brat is going to give us all away if she's not careful," she claimed with a stomp of her hoof.
PostPosted: Wed Jul 30, 2008 11:28 pm


Meka didn't care that she was clumsy, to be completely truthful she was clumsy on solid ground as well. She laughed and took the girls hands with a great smile, "I'm just glad to see another centaur around, I was so scared that I was the only one." Her abnormal tail swung about behind her. She was very happy although her hair was bother her.

Astra sighed softly. "What are we going to do? The humans destroyed our home and now we're stuck here on the beach, completely exposed," she said as she looked at Meka. "I only come here at night, when the humans aren't around," she added.

Realization struck her again, "Oh, yeah, your right... What are we going to do? we are going to have to build shelter, and how am I supposed to grow anything in this?" She asked kneeling down running her hand over the sand, pick up some in her palm she let it run though her fingers and catch on the wind. Looking back up at the woman, Meka's smile had completely disappeared.

Astra couldn't help but sigh. "The deal is, nothing will grow in the sand. And it's quiet hard to build a shelter here," she said. She brushed her hair over her shoulder and slowly moved to lay down. "We'd have to wait for a beached whale or something with good strong bones to die so we can use the bones to try and make a shelter," she said closing her eyes. She took a deep breath before she reopened her eyes. "Did you get any burns in the fire?" she asked curiously.
