This is on Antichthon, the 'counter earth' where man is few, and beasts are many. Myth does rein and shadows run. Mysticism is deep in the pockets of magic here, and it is here that the Animal Nation dwells...

As the moon broke red upon the sky, casting bloody light, laughing at the faces of the Animal Nation, as they tried to break free, and survive what was coming...Bird, Wolf, Deer, Mole, Cougar, Mouse and so many others...all the faces...ran as directed by Kiitani, the Bird Mystic.
She had never failed to warn them of danger, they were safe in her care...until it came...
Birds flew before the raging water, climbing higher into the ravaged sky, only to be torn asunder by the falling Fire, Wind whipped those who were not burned into debris, breaking brittle bones of birds and small beasts the wind tore from the ground.
Those larger peoples, running and dodging, trying to protect those smaller than they caught flame in their pelts, and rolling and screaming burned, choking on the ashes of their dying. Swept away many were to weak to swim and drown in the roil. Powerful animals, Oxen, Buffalo, Stag, Bear, Bobcat, Wolf and few more fought the water, and were swept under by trunks of trees and other hidden wash out.
Day broke as the water passed weak and washed out...bloody dawn...like bloody night. Trees, rocks, bits of things they never knew, building and statue, strange men and women, drown or caught aflame until they died scattered around their safe haven...
The Animal Nation, so proud and fierce in it's ways is broken and spread...What is to become of the Animal People? Souls entwined so because of their Mysticism, and beliefs.

The Cataclysm broke the earth, and it is weeping...is it for the people, animal and man in the same body...to rebuild and survive...Though unrest and civil war is starting...the Mystic has failed them, and the beast lives in eyes of many...their animal nature is coming, and their reasoning is dying...
Carnivore, omnivore and even Herbivore feel the pull as the Animal comes to their eyes...


What will become of this noble people?

Those who chose to leave the Animal Nation after the Cataclysm believed the words that were spoken on the full moon night that the wolf spoke. They believed it the fault of the Mystic for their pain and loss and left to find safety and shelter.
Their world had been shattered and needed mended. Like all things it can heal strait or heal crooked and twisted...

In their hearts they had left the spirit of nature, and became men. As men they have lost their connections with nature and eat the flesh of animals...


In time they will learn how to separate themselves from their spirits entirely, and take them as beasts of labor and as pets, and not the beings they have shared life with, who have learned with them and know their knowledge...

Character sheet. A basic one, feel free to add extra, I believe I will be updating mine from time to time as I learn more.

Name:
Gender:
Animal:
Age:
Place in the world: Up to what you believe that might mean, take a guess. It's as good as mine.
Appearance:
Personality:
History:

* and anything else you might like to add, odd quirks, likes or dislikes, family, what all may come to mind. Add it above History.

************************

Here is the BirdWoman/man Mystic, Kiitani. XD Hope you like it!


Name: Kiitani
Gender: Female and Male.
Animal: Bird, seems none specific.
Place in the world: Mystic, and claimed leader of the Nation.
Age: 32

Appearance: (female) 5'6 tall, and lean with tanned skin and eyes blue, but seeming beady like a bird's eyes. Long blond hair, about mid back frames this tanned angular face in wild snarls and curls. Capping this wild hair is something akin to a head dress, a hooked beak hangs over her forehead, on tanned leather crested with feathers and beads on strong grass strands. There is no apparent way that it stays on, it just does.
She gives off a motherly feel, but backing it is the solid affirmation of knowledge and understanding. Kiitani wears little, green and brown wood beads in a leaf pattern cover her leather chest strap, and a short skirt of similar design, covers just to her thighs. Wearing very little else but her cloak of black, grays, white, and rich brown feathers. It sets like a fine mantle across his shoulders and stops shy of her ankles.
At times she can be found wearing Feathered boots, the same colors as her cloak, but normaly she is barefoot.
Appearance: (Male) Kiitani when Male has sharper blue eyes, and carries himself with more authority and steel. He stands with his back straighter. His shape, and clothing is still the same as when he is in female form, but the chest strap falls down and hangs more like a sash across his chest and shoulders.

Personality: As the Bird Woman Kiitani has a mothering yet stern standing. As a Male, he is Firm and more Authoritative. Either way the Mystic is understanding, and tries to be fair. She loves her people and reserves judgments.
Rarely does he loose his temper, but when he does it burns and needs justice. He will not rest until this is so. At times he prefers to be to himself, and will seek a solitude to gain some knowledge and try to helps his peoples in this struggle.
At times, the Magpie in her will come forward. Magpie is who she was first, and will always be in the end, this makes her, at times, mischievous and playful.

Worship: Kiitani, like many of the animal nation worship the spirits of nature and the communion of Souls. This is why they are animal people, taking the soul of an animal into them to be with them on their life journeys. Taking in the soul they take the aspects of the animal and certain traits. She believes a person must find their soul match or the will not be at peace. Many though, because of the ways of the Nation, find their soul match quickly.

History: Kiitani was made Mystic of the Nation because of it's Duality of soul being both male and female. It was a temperamental yet eager child, and enjoyed learning, but hated to be corrected.
At the time, Kiitani had the spirit of Magpie, mischievous, and playful. As she grew more bird joined her and Magpie is now but one. Only Mystics may take on other spirits of a similar nature.
She learned to read the signs of nature, and take visions and became the leader to the Nation that she is today.
**************************
Eferhilda is playing the part of Raissa, mate of Draekin-the female wolf that challenged him. A sheet was not made, she is playing it by ear~

Quote Witchety Grub:
Name: Draekin

Gender: Male

Animal: Wolf

Age: 48

Age at which first joined (with an Animal Spirit): 25

Attempted Test of Aggression?: No

Place in the world: Alpha of the Animal Nation's wolf pack (such as it is; the pack was decimated in the Catastrophe.)

Appearance: Draekin walks as easily on four legs as on two, and his appearance differs dramatically accordingly. When on four, Draekin moves with a preternatural grace, his steel grey pelt contrasted by the white shock of his mane. His eyes reflect the light like mirrors, and his teeth bare when he talks. When walking as one of the People, on two legs, his coat/belt is visibly ripped and scarred; wounds Draekin bares with pride. His eyes flash green as the forest, and as dangerous, but his age sits heavily upon him.

Personality: Attentive, not much passes that Draekin is not aware of. And guarded, careful not to betray any weakness. And a scowl which threatens disembowelment.

History: Draekin waited the longest to first join with a spirit of the People in living memory. It is said that even then, he did not submit willingly to the ritual. Perhaps he foresaw the Spirit that would claim him, and sort to escape it.
Once joined, Draekin's presence was quickly felt, and knowledge of his life before was lost. He bears many scars from years of recklessly wasted power, but eventually he found focus and rose slowly, steadily to Beta within his Pack.
The death of Alpha Tylann in the Catastrophe summarily promoted Draekin, and filled with anger, loss and grief, he now acts as he sees fit, unbeholden to the Mystic.

Name: Maered

Gender: female

Animal: elk

Age: 18

Place in the world: she travels the world learning about the different people

Appearance: shaggy black hair/pelt. Antlers protruding from just above forehead. Delicate cheekbones and a small pert nose with a stubborn mulish chin. Large dark brown eyes, framed by thick lashes. Long scar running from her brow down to her mouth. Short stocky build, heavily muscled but slender. Clothing long shaggy fur looking cloak. Usually bare foot but occasionally wears sandals.

Personality: She is a very curios person and wants to learn about all of the people on the earth but she hides this from others. She appears stoic barely showing emotion but if she gets agitated enough she will attack. Small children are her weak spot. They break through her calm. If someone attacks a child she will tear them limb from limb. She hates man for taking of her fingers but also holds a fascination for them.

History: Mared was perhaps the youngest person to join with a spirit ever. She joined at the age of three weeks old which might be the reason she feels more comfortable in the wild then in large herds. Her fascination for other kinds developed at a younger age when she would go to other species in the nation to learn the ways they worked. Once she was discovered watching the wolf pups playing in a field and the alphas chased her a way but she didn’t stop coming until one day when one of the pups caught her and left a long scar down her face splitting one of her eyebrows in half. During her early teens she decided it would be interesting to learn about the other people besides the nation so she left.

Name: Simaya

Gender: Female

Animal: Bengal Tiger

Age: 18

Place in the world: Simaya is a sailor and a merchant for her tribe.

Appearance: Long fire-red hair that falls to her mid-back like a curtain. She has emerald green eyes that blaze with defiance and her strong will. She is tall, about 6'8", and her skin is pale, but not terribly so. Simaya's face is angular, with rounded tiger ears just above her forehead.

She usually wears a buckskin button-down shirt with sleeves that end halfway down her forearms. Under the sleeves, are leather braces that cover her entire forearms. A skirt, that matches the shirt, goes to her knee. Simaya also wears a cloak of tiger fur that hangs off of her shoulders and down to the same length as her skirt. On her feet, she wears leather boots that go halfway up her shins.

Personality: Simaya is hot-headed and stubborn. She has a warm heart beneath her icy exterior. For some reason, she always feels the need to prove herself. Simaya's temper as is fire-y as her hair.

History: As a child, Simaya was always in the water. Some of the other kids her age joked that she would be paired with the spirit of a fish, which resulted in a few fights when she was little. Simaya hoped she would be something strong, like a bear.

When she turned seven, she became paired with a tiger, and wasn't disappointed. After that, the other kids stopped picking on her, and some even seemed impressed.

I will approve this, the rp is post cataclysm, so there is turmoil and the need to rebuild, and Man is becoming a threat. Trade is between other tribes, and this will be useful, since many blame Kiitani, the Mystic for what has become of the people.
