(ah alright. If you're wanting to rp and you have time you can maybe just post, like, the bare minimum with like name, gender, age & animal, and the a very brief summary of everything else, and then just fill it out later. If you're not gonna be able to rp for a while either, though, then don't worry about it lol.)
(Edit: also, a vulture spirit will be very interesting, since vultures are generally considered evil... I didn't expect anyone to pick a vulture spirit so this should be fun. People would likely be somewhat suspicious of them since vultures are considered to be bone-stealers and followers of Jek-durr.)

Name: Tendua Symbol: ૪ Animal: Fang Cat Age: 23 Gender: Male Role: Hunter Appearance: Tendua is lithe, tan skinned, and agile. His hair is dark, chocolate brown, and long enough to hang in his eyes. There are sun-streaks of lighter brown filtered in, and he wears several thin braids, though none of which are any longer than his bangs. He has high cheekbones and a sharp jawline, along with noticeable freckles sprinkled across his nose and under his eyes. There are much, much more, decorating his back and arms particularly, but those are seen less often. His lips are rose pink and bowed, and his irises are bright green, a ring of amber lining his pupils. He has long eyelashes and his eye-shape is almost feline in appearance, sharp and sometimes more threatening than he intends. Tendua is very tall, standing at well above six feet, and that paired with broad shoulders and a limber frame makes him a perfect match for his hunting role. He bears a red band on his left arm and many others for his pleasure only, none of which have much meaning to anyone but himself. Personality: Tendua is a free spirit, and as aggressive as his animal counterpart. He has little respect for authority, something that definitely does not do him any favors within the tribe. Despite his lack of submissiveness, he is incredibly loyal, and dangerously self-sacrificing when it comes to something or someone he cares about. It takes a while to earn his trust, but once you have it, he will defend you to his last breath. Although he considers himself to be distant when it comes to relationships, he is generally very friendly, and almost never rude. He isn't the type to be incessantly humorous, but he's no stranger to sarcasm. Skills/Weaknesses: Tendua is physically adept - even stronger than he looks and fast enough to outrun almost anything he hunts. He is incredibly skilled in his role, and is proficient with any and all weapons, though he prefers close-quarter instruments, such as knives or spears, or even his bare hands. He is very brave and tends to be selfless to the point of fault, willing to risk anything for his tribe. However, these traits come with drawbacks. Tendua is reckless and even audacious at times, refusing to bow to those ranking above him is he believes he's doing the right thing. He takes risks that are dangerous enough to be considered stupid and has almost zero sense of self-preservation. If there is an opportunity for him to take on large game, he does it without thinking and without waiting for backup. Though he doesn't show it often, he is also a bit of a pessimist and tends to expect the worst. In this way, he is also distrusting, and rarely willingly relies on others. He's overambitious and often overconfident, traits that could very easily get him killed.

》Yeah, I thought it would be interesting. I quite like the idea of having a vulture character. It's not an animal most people would choose, so I figured it would be a lot of fun.
The poor guy is going to be so falsely accused... Or will those accusation be the truth? The world may never know! *evil laughter*《

(Yeah I look forward to seeing what you come up with for Kawinu. And as for Tendua... mostly he's good, except for two things. 1) you forgot to put personality and 2) he couldn't really have a jaguar as his spirit as the tribe lives in an area located probably in like Alaska and therefore would have no idea what a jaguar is. And we already have two characters, one living and one dead, who are the cave lion... however he could possibly be a fang cat- a saber-tooth tiger. Not exactly the lithe and lanky cat that a jaguar is, but a large feline nonetheless. And they don't necessarily have to be the embodiment of their animal, especially not physically. It's the personality that counts far more in that regard. But other than those two things I see no problems.)
(Edit: also I added the rest of Takoda's info.)

All these cool and interesting characters man, I'm excited! RIP Maguura though. We're going to start with the wedding right?? Or should we do just a few days before while we wait for people to join?

(I believe the plan was to start the day of the wedding. That will give people a few days to join before Maguura dies probably. What will happen after that, I don't know. There's not really a main plot yet except for the death of Maguura and Takoda subsequently taking leadership.)

(Yeah sure go for it Glow. Also I think I'll go ahead and start of the roleplay here soon, just make a post to sort of establish the time and set the setting and everything. Then after that post anyone whose characters are finished and approved can start rping. I think perhaps we'll start a bit before dusk, so when everyone will be in camp or returning to camp, ready to feast before the wedding itself.)

(Okay now it looks good except, again, for the spirit. If his animal is a cave lion his name would be Aesu, since that's the established word for cave lion. There are also two other characters, one living, who already have that animal and name, so while that doesn't mean your character can't also be a cave lion I wouldn't recommend it. However, as I said, a fang cat- the tribe word for a saber-tooth tiger- is another large feline that lives in the area, though it's not quite the same as a cave lion, and the name could remain Tendua, since even though it's mentioned that Daru, the second ancestor, was a fang cat I can easily change that to something else at this point. Sorry for the trouble with the spirit animal ^^' )

(No, with the exception of if there are two characters of the same animal. I'll use Tsuka as an example. Since there is a living character named Tsuka- crow- after his animal, if baby were born into the tribe who is also a crow their name would also be Tsuka, but to differentiate between the first Tsuka and the second, the baby would have a second word added to their name. This word is up to the discretion of the shaman who names them [who, in this case would in fact be Tsuka], but really it could be anything- a color, a sound, or a season for example. So if baby Tsuka was born in the summer, it's entirely possible that their name would become Tsuka-haatsu, literally "summer crow". In that case, they might be called by their full name- Tsuka-haatsu- or just their suffix, in this case Haatsu. So that would be a way for a character to be called by a non-animal name, even though their full name does include the animal. Sorry if that's really complicated lol)

(Hm well, if you had twins who had the same spirit animal, they could have opposite suffixes. Also, the words winter and summer could be used more metaphorically than literally, so you could, for example, have Hazu-negua and Hazu-haatsu but they go by Negua and Haatsu. But it's up to you what you want to do.)
