The Beast Within Our Tribe is out hunting today To keep our people fed; Quickly now to catch our prey And keep moving ahead.
Verevend, Blood Brothers, Stout-hearted, brave, and true- Verevend, Blood Brothers, We'll carry on with you.
Bound in blood and bound in love Together strong we stand; Eyes of eagle far above, Wolf’s steady paws on land.
Verevend, Blood Brothers, With holy strength imbue- Verevend, Blood Brothers, True warriors through and through.
In stormy wood or windy vale We’ll stand strong at your side; Even if all our hope should fail We never will divide.
Verevend, Blood Brothers, Fighting along with you- Verevend, Blood Brothers, Stout-hearted, brave, and true~! -A Tribe Hunting Chant
Basically this is a spirit animal/shapeshifter roleplay I purposefully made to be more chill than a lot of other rps I've tried to make. Hopefully that'll help encourage more people to join! The Tribe, Verevend, is secluded far from society. This allows them to freely worship their primal gods, and use their abilities without fear of isolation. Time period wise, just think classic tribal. That means no advanced technology or anything like that. There are also no ‘magic powers’, unless you count a Tribe member's racial bonds. The Tribe works together to achieve their goals, similar to a clan. If you want to be a higher ranking role, just ask first. I'll probably be okay with it~ There are no specific rules, just the standard rp stuff you read every time. If you're not sure about anything, ask. I'll gladly help you figure things out.

Names and Places
Ranks- Alpha Just like in a wolf pack, the alpha is the leader of all the tribe. There are two alphas, one male and one female, usually either a mated pair or a close pair of siblings. They make major decisions for the tribe, and are also in charge of determining when an Initiate has sufficient enough control of their powers to become a full-fledged tribe member.
Tribe Members The basic members of the tribe, usually between 16 and 45 years of age. They have control over their powers, but it’s very rare to see someone that has completely master their shifting abilities. The new alpha is elected from tribe members when the old alpha dies, and tribe members are also responsible for teaching the Initiates how to use their powers. Although no specific pairs of teacher and student are made, usually groups of tribe members with similar spirit animals to the Initiate will work together to teach them.
Initiates Initiates are those still in the process of learning to control their powers, and are usually between 7 and 15 years of age. They struggle to control their animal urges, and need the help of a tribe member to learn to use their powers. Sometimes, Initiates are prone to shift without warning, completely overwhelmed by their spirit animal and losing control of themselves. This is extremely dangerous, and so whenever an Initiate goes somewhere outside the camp, they must be accompanied by another tribe member who can help them deal with their primal instincts.
Fledglings Fledglings are the youngest members of the Tribe, those who are newly born up to those 7 years of age. They’re basically children. However, unlike their parents, fledgelings are born without an animal form, and there’s no guarantee that they will share either parents’ animal form. Fledglings determine their spirit animal when they reach 7 years, during the ceremony to become an Initiate.
Elders Those too old to effectively serve the tribe anymore, usually 45+ years old. Tribe members must decide for themselves when they wish to retire, but must keep in mind that they will be held to the same standard as all the other Tribe members. Elders are treated with immense respect. Because they have managed to survive this long, many believe them to be specially selected by the gods to serve as counsels. Sometimes a particularly troublesome Initiate will be placed under an Elder’s guidance to receive a more experienced teacher. Elders are given first bite at every meal.
Forsaken Those who, for whatever reason, were never able to call a spirit animal. These people are believed to be scorned by the primal gods who gave them their powers, and are often scorned by most. They oftentimes even run the risk of being run out of the tribe. However, sometimes their family will pity them, and beg the Alpha to allow them to stay. If the Alpha agrees, the family accepts full responsibility for any actions the Forsaken takes, and may even be banished with them if things take a turn for the worse.
Loners Shifters who, for whatever reason, left the tribe. They are forbidden from entering Tribe territory, and, while they might not be attacked on sight, are not welcome to any hospitalities the tribe may offer. However, when a greater evil arises, Tribe members and loners may work together to defeat their common foe.
Places- The Territory
The Tribe’s territory is very diverse in biomes. Legend says that when the gods chose the tribe to receive their gifts, they shaped the land so a greater amount of creatures would be available as spirit animals. The largest of these biomes is the temperate forest, sometimes called the Forest of Colors. This is where the camp is located, as well as where many of the spirit animals come from. To the north, there is a boreal(pine) forest, called the Evergreen Forest. To the southeast of the temperate forest, there is a medium-sized swamp, with a large lake at the center. The swamp is simply called the Marshlands, and the lake is called Lila Lake. Moving east, the swamp deteriorates into a vast plain, called the Field of Dreams, due to the lingering fog from the Marshlands that sometimes seep into the area. Separating the Evergreen Forest and the Field of Dreams is a large mountain range, stretching across the land like a large scar. About halfway between the two territories, the mountains fork into two smaller, separate paths, enclosing between them a small desert. This desert is called the Barren, and is extremely hard to reach, even through several small mountain passages that exist.
The Camp The camp is settled deep within the temperate forest, and mostly consists of ramshackle huts centered around a large clearing. These structures come and go with their owners, and the number of huts can differ greatly in just a few years. The only two permanent structures are the Elder’s hut and the Alpha’s hut. The elders have a larger, more established hut at one end of the clearing. It isn’t as elaborate as the Alpha’s, but is still more comfortable than the other huts. The Alpha’s hut is situated at the other end of the clearing on a small hill. It’s the largest building in the camp, and is built to withstand nearly anything nature could throw at it. The Alpha’s hut isn’t too different from the others, but it does have several separate rooms, unlike many of the smaller huts. This allows for a bit more privacy. In the clearing itself, there is a large firepit, used mostly for cooking and warmth. Surrounding the firepit are several long mats and crude tables, used for eating meals. Tribe members are strictly forbidden from eating any other Tribe member’s spirit animal race. There are also separate tables for carnivorous and herbivorous Tribe members, since often a member will adopt their spirit animal’s eating habits in this regard. At the base of the Alpha’s hill, there is a large stone altar, used for sacrifices to the gods, as well as a Tribe member’s cremation after they pass on.
Ceremonies- Birth Ceremony When a new fledgling is born, they are presented to both the Tribe and the gods for approval. This usually occurs during the first month after birth, but may come later if the child is sickly. The ceremony begins with the parents and family of the child forming a procession towards the altar, with all the tribe in audience. The child is then presented to the Alphas, who will say a blessing and plea to the gods. The Alpha then anoints the child’s head with a mixture of herbs and plants. This is left on for two days after the ceremony, at which point it can be washed off.
Calling a Spirit Animal On a Fledgling’s 7th birthday, they must take part in the ceremony to find their spirit animal. If several Fledglings were born around the same time, the ceremony may be postponed so there’s only one ceremony necessary. The ceremony itself lasts for three days, and requires intense concentration and reflection. The Fledglings travel to any place in the territory, where the will retreat for the three days to wait for their spirit animal to arrive. Once the calling process begins, they cannot eat, drink, speak, or even move until their spirit animal arrives. If the animal arrives before the three days are up, the Fledgling is free to go home as a new Initiate. If no animal arrives, the Fledgling is considered Forsaken, and awaits further judgement upon their return home. This may happen if the ceremony was disrupted or the instructions weren’t followed, but is, overall, still a rather rare occurrence. When a spirit animal chooses a Fledgling, a lifelong connection is formed between the two individual creatures. They share a special empathetic bond that allows the two to communicate somewhat, as well as always have a general idea where the other is at all times. If one creature is in danger, the other becomes compelled to protect it. If a spirit animal dies while its Tribe member is still alive, the Tribe member loses their ability to shift, but still retains the enhancements given to them by their bond with the race. Due to the bond, some Tribe members invite their spirit animals into their home as a kind of honored pet, but others see this as disrespectful. This has caused a few large disagreements within the Tribe. After the ceremony is complete and all Fledglings have returned with spirit animal companions, there is a feast and welcoming of the the Tribe’s new Initiates.
The First Shift When an Initiate first forms their bond with their animal, there are two major results besides the bond with the creature. First off, the human will have a slight change in appearance that will make them more closely resemble their animal bond. This is nothing so dramatic as scales or claws, but more along the lines of hair/eye color changes, slight build changes(thinner, stockier, etc.), or vocal changes. The second is the special abilities one gains from their animal bond. For example, if one’s animal is an eagle, they may gain improved eyesight and the ability to jump higher/longer distances. The Initiate also gains the ability to shift into their spirit animal. This requires concentration and, more importantly, practice. The first time a young Initiate is able to shift into their animal form successfully, there is a celebration and offering to the gods. This is a smaller ceremony than that of the Calling, but is still an important stepping stone in an Initiate’s path to become a full Tribe member.
Becoming a Tribe Member When an Alpha considers an Initiate ready to join the ranks of the Tribe, they will call the Tribe member or group of Tribe members that helped out most often with their training. If these people believe the Initiate is ready as well, then a brief ceremony is held. The Alpha calls up the ready Initiates to the altar, and will offer a prayer to the gods. Then, a few words are exchanged between the Alpha and the Initiates, before the Alpha asks the Tribe, “Do you believe these members are ready to fully enter life as a member of the Tribe?” The assembly always responds yes. A feast follows, similar to that after a Calling. The Initiates are greeted similar to how they were at the Calling, but this time as peers.
Becoming an Alpha When the old Alpha dies, his/her co-leader will immediately step down to the elder position to clear the way for two new alphas. These Alphas are selected by all Tribe members(excluding Fledgelings and Initiates) by a majority vote. The candidate chosen can be anyone, as long as they are old enough (20+) and get 51% of votes. If a majority cannot be reached in five rounds of voting, a simple plurality will determine the winner. Once the Alpha has been chosen, the will meditate beside the old rulers body for a time, before it is cremated. After the old Alpha’s funeral rites are completed, the new Alpha will announce who their co-leader will be. They must always be related by blood or bond (siblings or marriage), and must always be of opposite genders. The Alphas will spend the night in prayer to the gods, asking that they be accepted as the new leaders of the Tribe. The following morning, there is a large feast celebrating the new Alphas as opposed to remembering the old.
Mating/Marriage When a couple wishes to form a long-term relationship, they can ask one of the Alphas to marry them. This is only available if the majority of both party’s families approve of the marriage. If not, the Alpha will not consider them applicable. This has caused a few instances of elopement. However, if both families approve of the union, the Alpha asked will begin making the preparations for a wedding ceremony. This includes a feast, as well as an offering to the gods. The offering is decided upon and procured by the couple. When all the preparations have been made, the couple will be married in the center of the camp, with a brief ceremony presided over by an Alpha. Any shifter can marry any other type of shifter, regardless of their partner's spirit animal. Married couples may also see their companion animals grow closer as a result of their bond. M×M and F×F marriages are allowed, but discouraged within the Tribe, since they cannot provide any offspring.
Retiring When a tribe member wishes to resign and join the elders, they first must meet with the Alphas to discuss their decision. If both the Alphas agree the cause of the decision is reasonable, they will speak further with the Tribe member on what they would prefer to do. Some elders wish to retire in peace and quiet, while others wish to ‘go out with a bang’. No matter what is decided, there is always a small ceremony where the Alphas or the elder themselves informs the Tribe of their choice. The new elder is then greeted by the rest of the elders, and will live in the elder’s hut for the rest of their life.
Funerals When a Tribe member passes on, either of natural causes or in battle, there is a brief ceremony that celebrates what they were able to accomplish in life. There is also a brief period of time in which the family can speak of their departed. After this has finished, the body is carried to the freshly cleaned altar, where they will be cremated. Tribe members believe that this will help free ones spirit to travel in the afterlife. Some even go so far as to say their spirits become the spirit animals of new Initiates, continuing the cycle even after their departure.

Characters
Joining Form: Username §|§ Character Name §|§ Spirit Animal §|§ Rank
Description Alphas: kiwi cheesecake §|§ Jethro Unia §|§ Bison Jethro is a large, boisterous man of 40 years old. His skin is more tanned, and contrasts sharply with his long greying beard. His hair itself it much shorter than his waist-length beard, only reaching a bit past his shoulders. His eyes are a deep kindly green. His animal form is a large brown bison, mimicking his spirit animal, Ra’ak. Jethro dresses more regally than the rest of the Tribe, wearing long flowing robes of various colors to denote his status as Alpha. He isn't the least bit pretentious about it, however. He looks at the whole Tribe as his family, himself being the father. As such, he often helps training the Initiates and playing with the Fledglings as if they were his own children. Jethro has a big heart, and he takes it personally if anyone in the Tribe is hurt or insulted. He's a very empathetic person, and often finds it hard to see past his emotions. Jethro has a deep connection with his family as well, and finds it hard to harshly punish any of his children for their actions. Luckily, not many of them get in trouble. Jethro, though aging, still makes an effort to keep an active part in The Tribe. He's fallen a bit out of shape, but will still greet every young one at their Birth Ceremony and watch over Fledglings during their Calling Ceremony. Jethro keeps his own quarters fairly unfurnished, preferring to live in the same circumstances as many of his Tribe members rather than purposefully raise himself above them.
@shootforthestars §|§ Paisley Unia §|§ Caracal Paisley stands at a average height of 5'6", and has curly, chestnut brown hair that stops right below her shoulder blades. It tends to be wavy towards her skull but it very quickly turns into ringlet style curls. Her eyes are light green that in some lights appear brown or hazel. At 38, she has aged well and has high cheek bones and toned limbs, but she almost always has dark spots under her eyes. Not bags, just dark spots. Despite her body being lithe, she has womanly curves in all the right places. She is an attractive woman, especially when she smiles. Paisley comes off as cold at first glance, but she is actually quite fun to be around. She can be the life of the party if she wants and loves to joke around. Still, it totally depends on the day, how much sleep she got, or even if she has been able to make a snarky comment during the day. Back biting comments tend to make her happy. Is that wrong? Probably, but she doesn't care. She is sarcastic and witty and has a wicked sharp tongue. She is extremely loyal, however, and truly wants the best for her tribe and her two sons. She loves her sons more than life, but it's all tough love with her. Of course, there are times when all she wants is to have fun with her husband and sons. Paisley doesn't tend to be overly emotional, but is prone to fits of anger in high stress situations. In fact, she feels the most calm in the midst of battle and receives something akin to a high from the situation. She is very goal-orientated and does her best work when she gives herself something to strive for(38 years old).
Tribe Members: kiwi cheesecake §|§ Kamaria Isildu §|§ Leopard Kamaria is a slightly shorter than usual 21-year-old, standing at a height of 5'3", but her stocky build makes her more than an intimidating figure. While not as large as some her age, she is certainly well-muscled. She has several scars along her arms and legs, but her face is surprisingly unmarked. Her eyes are an almost unsettling bright green that stand out against her darker tan skin. Her waist-length hair is a bright blonde, with the tips gradually fading into more of brown color. She usually keeps it loose, flowing around her like some kind of warrior’s battle cape. Her tribal clothing is fairly simple. Although more tomboyish in other aspects of her personality, Kamaria prefers wearing skirts. Usually the skirt is a neutral color, and longer in back than in front, giving it a sort of rippling, flowing effect. This is accompanied by a white long-sleeved shirt with a conspicuously low neckline, although she oftentimes doesn't seem to notice. Along with her clothing, Kamaria also has three tattoos- one that weaves its way along her left arm of her animal guide, Alaria the leopard; one of her deceased brother along her back, in his jackal form; and one abstract tribal design that vaguely resembles vines winding their way up her right leg. Personality wise, Kamaria is extremely dynamic. She can change from a nice, friendly person to a vicious killer in a few minutes. However, a few things always stay the same. She constantly uses sarcasm to get her point across, either in humor or in a vicious attack. She also is consistently more street smart than book smart, relying on what years of experience have taught her is true. As such, she is slow to change opinions if she has firsthand experience that might oppose the change. Kamaria hasn’t had any notable things happen to her, and she’s almost starting to get mad about it. She just wants to be a part of something amazing, just once. Unfortunately, she’s nearly willing to do anything to achieve this. Kamaria has an affinity for tattoo making, and, if asked, will sometimes give them to other people. The inside of her small hut is covered in charcoal designs, and she keeps her supplies neatly organized along one wall.
kiwi cheesecake §|§ Noel Amaria §|§ Grey Fox Noel is a tall, slender woman, standing at about 5’11”. Her hair is short, only reaching to her shoulders, and colored a light brown-blonde. Her eyes are passive and grey, just like the fur of her spirit animal, Alari. Besides this, the only benefits she has received from her partnership with Alari is a slight increase in flexibility and speed. Her shifted form is, of course, a grey fox. However, instead of her eyes retaining their grey color in this form, they switch to an almost startling shade of green. Personality wise, Noel is far more reserved than many Tribe members. She tends to keep to herself, but doesn’t necessarily dislike other people. She just likes to work when she can hear her own thoughts. She’s extremely touchy about certain subjects, and oftentimes overreacts to simple situations. Noel’s also a little bit of a perfectionist, and will rarely start something she knows(or thinks) she can never achieve. Despite this, she is a very skilled healer, and can often be found sorting through her supplies or learning how to use a new medicine. She also can hold her own in a fight, even though she’s more suited to a mental battle than a physical one. Of course, her fox form helps with this. She also will shift into her fox form when out searching for herbs and plants to help with her healing. It’s easier to find them this way, especially when she works together with Alari. Noel’s hut is fairly empty, except a lone sleeping mat and crudely made herb rack in one corner. There is also a small sleeping mat for Alari. While Noel doesn’t keep her there, she still wants to be prepared when(or if) the fox decides to stop by.
oysk §|§ Jemin Wyllow §|§ Barn Owl Jemin is 38 years old, almost ready for retirement, and the mother of Kaeli. Her mate left early on, and she doesn't know if he is alive or just a Loner now. She has waist length brown hair with sun streaks in it. Her eyes are a light blue (not as light as Kaeli, but still light). Because of her spirit animal, she is able to see a little better than most, but that's about all, when she is in human form. When shifted, she is a beautiful speckled barn owl. Her eyes stay the same throughout it all. Jemin is very lithe and her muscles taunt. She's worked very hard for her body, trying to keep in the best shape possible. A lot of her personality is teasing, with just a hint of responsibility. If needed, she will become quite serious, especially with her daughter. She's very kind, with a motherly glow about her. Generally, she wears clothes that are easy to move around in, as tight clothing gets in the way.
@shootforthestars §|§ Zane Timal §|§ Dapple Grey Mustang Standing at 6'3, Zane is a tall and lanky individual. A fine layer of muscle covers his tanned arms and legs much like a horse. His disheveled strawberry colored hair hits the nape of his neck, contrasting nicely with the sharp blue and green of his eyes. When he smiles, dimples pop up on his cheeks and the sharp point of his chin seems less severe. With broad shoulders and a tattoo that curls around the back of his neck, he could appear intimidating to any passersby. He usually wears baggy pants and loose fitting tee shirts, but will occasionally wear muscle shirts. Zane is knowledgeable and intuitive. A gentle soul, he speaks in soft tones and hardly ever raises his voice. He tends to find the good in people and neglect the bad making him a great (yet sometimes naïve) friend. He has an uncanny talent for giving advise even if he has never experienced a certain situation before. He loves the water and he enjoys late night swims in Lila Lake. He hates confrontation, but isn't necessarily a pushover. Despite the fact that he is gentle, he can have a violent temper if severely provoked. It takes A LOT to get him to that point however.(23 years old).
@toomanywcfaccounts §|§ Erie Houma §|§ 28 y/o §|§ Sumatran Tiger Erie is a very tall and muscular man, reaching at about 6'3" and weighing at around 215lbs in human form. His jet black hair is known to be quite long and messy, as it reaches around his waist and he normally wears it braided with amber/brown feathers. Rumor has it that when his hair is let loose, he's known to look even more terrifying than usual. His eyes are thin, however the sharp hazel color of his iris and dark long lashes make his eyes much more noticeable. Erie's facial structure is thin, yet his jaw is very pronounced due to his fang-like teeth. His cheekbones have two black strikes on each side of his face, and another going down the center of his forehead. Erie's whole body is covered with black viney/striped tattoos; going down his arms, back and legs- alike to his spirit animal. You'll normally see Erie wearing hooded robes, alike to an assassin's clothing due to the fact he wanted clothing that was maneuverable yet still easy to hide in. He is known to be stern and knowledgeable. He's a very decent fighter and strategist, and he normally takes things very seriously- he doesn't get along with kids very well. He's quite moody for the most part, however he's known to be a loyal member of the tribe and deep down he's very protective of every member. Erie is known to love cloudy weather, and also enjoys different types of flowers. You can most likely find him relaxing in a shadowed place. A lot of others think one of the main reasons why Erie is so focused on being a loyal and helpful member is because he was not tribe-born, as a small child he was found severely injured on the territory.
Initiates: kiwi cheesecake §|§ Kiluga Unia §|§ Gila Monster Kiluga, while small, emanates an aura of hostility that makes nearly everyone tentative to approach him. Kiluga’s hair is pitch black, and his eyes are a strange mix of amber and orange. This resembles his Gila Monster spirit animal, Gajel’s, scales. His build is nearly pure muscle, an unusual look, especially for someone so young. Kiluga attributes this partially to his spirit animal bond, but also to the fact that he meticulously keeps his muscles trained for when he’ll need them. He often wears only a loose pair of trousers to show off these muscles, as well as make him lighter on his feet. Being the Alpha’s son, Kiluga is very full of himself. Even though he's only 12, he still thinks he’s better even than the elders. This has got him into trouble several times, but more often than not his kind-hearted father will let him off with just a warning. This has led him to become even more of a little brat. It doesn't help that he can beat most of the other Initiates into submission if they don't agree with him. Kiluga has no qualms about using his status for his own personal benefit, and doesn't really care how it reflects on himself or his family. Kiluga likes showing off, and this is particularly evident in his room in the Alpha’s hut, which is covered in many trophies from his hunts and challenges. He will never back down from a challenge- not even if it's apparent he will lose.
treerain §|§ Kaiya Baislannya §|§ Leopard Kaiya is a tall 15 year old girl, with shoulder length slightly wavy, thick brown hair. She has a tanned complexion, and is rather thin, but with still some lean muscle on her. She is usually thought of as the shy quiet type when you first meet her, due to her tendency to stay to the back of official affairs with those who are not close to her due to respect, but if you are lucky enough to be one of her close friends you will find she has quite the sense of humor, and a rambunctious, rebellious spirit. She deeply cares for those in her tribe that are close to her and is very empathetic with all animals. especially her spirit animal Jagu'uairi. She doesn't keep him in camp but prefers to spend time with him outside of camp , occasionally to hunt, but usually to just share news. She is close to being able to shapeshift, and is a late bloomer because of that, but she is still hopeful that when she does, she will be one of the best shapeshifters in the tribe.
@toomanywcfaccounts §|§ Lux Gitksan §|§ 13 y/o §|§ Albino Burmese Python §|§ Initiate Lux is at an average height for his age (around 5'5"), however has a very lithe body alike to his sister, Umbra. Lux has ivory toned skin and fluffy platinum blonde hair, that reaches around his ears, to the nape of his neck. He wears a mask on his face, which is made to look like a white snake with multiple tribal patterns (this was made from wood). Most people have not seen his face, but without his mask he has pale blue eyes and dark brows and lashes. His face is thin, and he has a small button nose. Lux has a tattoo of the yin-yan symbol on his right forearm. You'll normally see him wearing a pale shirt which is cropped at the elbows, with a pair of pants which are bunched up to his calves. He wears tribal bands around his upper arms and around his calves. Lux is obviously very alike to his sister, both being mischievous and perhaps a little intimidating. Most wouldn't know, but between him and his sister; he is the more serious sibling and normally is the one who makes the calls on what they do. He's a lot more concerned about there safety and will take action if needed. He doesn't get along very well with others, but he isn't a bad kid. He has a severe fear of water/swimming due to the fact he does not know how to swim.
@toomanywcfaccounts §|§ Umbra Gitksan §|§ 13 y/o §|§ Burmese Python §|§ Initiate Umbra reaches around the same height as her twin brother, which is 5'5". She has a very slim/lithe body which makes it easy for her to get into things. She has the same ivory toned skin as her brother, however her hair is a dark brown, almost black, and it reaches to just below her chest. Umbra wears a mask on her face, which had been made to look like a brown snake with multiple tribal patterns (this was made from wood). As most people have not seen her face, she has pale blue eyes and long dark lashes. She has a thin face and a small button nose, just like her brother. She has a tattoo of the yin-yan symbol on her left forearm. She normally wears a long pale dress and wears tribal bands around her wrists and ankles. Umbra is alike to her brother, being very mischievous, however also a lot more curious. Once you get to know her, she's quite friendly and is very adventurous- always wanting to get into things, however her Lux normally holds her back. If she could, she'd love to travel some day and see the world.
Fledgelings: oysk §|§ Kaeli Wyllow §|§ (no Spirit Animal yet, as she is 6 years old, but after the ceremony a panther) Kaeli is a very bright and energetic 6 year old. She has dark black hair, but pale blue eyes that are almost white are her most unnerving feature. She is getting close to being an Initiate, but is quite happy with just being a Fledgling. While she is young, she has learned very early on to control her emotions. Whenever she is around others, she will put on a facade. Her mom is the only one around, as her dad is either dead or a Loner, no one really knows. Clothing wise, she tends to wear very flow like clothing. They seem to trail around like wings, as she wants to be like her mom.
lazy penguin §|§ Berin Unia §|§ None, he's a Fledgling. (but it will be a brown bat) Berin, almost seven years old is notably tall for his age. His hair, which is always a mess of waves and curls, is a deep brown, almost the color of black coffee. Like his mother, his eyes are a pale green with flecks of brown and hazel scattered around the pupil. The young boy usually gets away with wearing very loose and simple clothes, taking after his father's flowy style. His personality is completely opposite from his brother, and Berin has an aura that emanates friendliness. He rarely has anything smaller than a smile on his face, and his happiness seems to burst from every limb of his body. He loves to have a conversation with anyone despite their name and status, and especially likes spending time with older tribe members, pretending that he's important. Berin is still incredibly naive and innocent, both believing that everyone is perfectly trustworthy and that no matter what he'll always have his family around. Berin is the son of Jethro and Paisley, and thus, is a very important character in the tribe. However, unlike his brother he doesn't flaunt this in others faces. He dreams of one day being an Alpha like his father, and strives to set a good example amongst the other Fledglings.
Elders: None.
Forsaken: None.
Loners: oysk §|§ Tectiv Wyllow §|§ Lynx Kaeli's father, and Jemin's mate. He left the Tribe when he fell in love with someone else. Instead of just figuring out his feelings and stuff, he left. He didn't know that his mate was pregnant at the time, otherwise he probably wouldn't have left. He has black hair, bright golden eyes (like a lynx), and lean muscles. His spirit animal gave him the ability to see better in the dark, not too much better, but enough to tell a difference.

oysk §|§ Jemin Wyllow §|§ Barn Owl
Jemin is 38 years old, almost ready for retirement, and the mother of Kaeli. Her mate left early on, and she doesn't know if he is alive or just a Loner now. She has waist length brown hair with sun streaks in it. Her eyes are a light blue (not as light as Kaeli, but still light). Because of her spirit animal, she is able to see a little better than most, but that's about all, when she is in human form. When shifted, she is a beautiful speckled barn owl. Her eyes stay the same throughout it all. Jemin is very lithe and her muscles taunt. She's worked very hard for her body, trying to keep in the best shape possible. A lot of her personality is teasing, with just a hint of responsibility. If needed, she will become quite serious, especially with her daughter. She's very kind, with a motherly glow about her. Generally, she wears clothes that are easy to move around in, as tight clothing gets in the way.
oysk §|§ Kaeli Wyllow §|§ (no Spirit Animal yet, as she is 6 years old, but after the ceremony a panther)
Kaeli is a very bright and energetic 6 year old. She has dark black hair, but pale blue eyes that are almost white are her most unnerving feature. She is getting close to being an Initiate, but is quite happy with just being a Fledgling. While she is young, she has learned very early on to control her emotions. Whenever she is around others, she will put on a facade. Her mom is the only one around, as her dad is either dead or a Loner, no one really knows. Clothing wise, she tends to wear very flow like clothing. They seem to trail around like wings, as she wants to be like her mom.
(LAST ONE I'M NOT GIVING HIM MUCH DETAIL. I don't think I'll actually role-play with him, but I want him to be known, as he is a Loner, not dead)
oysk §|§ Tectiv Wyllow §|§ Lynx
Kaeli's father, and Jemin's mate. He left the Tribe when he fell in love with someone else. Instead of just figuring out his feelings and stuff, he left. He didn't know that his mate was pregnant at the time, otherwise he probably wouldn't have left. He has black hair, bright golden eyes (like a lynx), and lean muscles. His spirit animal gave him the ability to see better in the dark, not too much better, but enough to tell a difference.

ѕнσσт ƒσя тнє ѕтαяѕ §|§ Paisley Unia §|§ 38 §|§ Caracal Paisley stands at a average height of 5'6", and has curly, chestnut brown hair that stops right below her shoulder blades. It tends to be wavy towards her scull but it very quickly turns into ringlet style curls. Her eyes are light green that in some lights appear brown or hazel. At 38, she has aged well and has high cheek bones and toned limbs, but she almost always has dark spots under her eyes. Not bags, just dark spots. Despite her body being lithe, she has womanly curves in all the right places. She is an attractive woman, especially when she smiles. Paisley comes off as cold at first glance, but she is actually quite fun to be around. She can be the life of the party if she wants and loves to joke around. Still, it totally depends on the day, how much sleep she got, or even if she has been able to make a snarky comment during the day. Back biting comments tend to make her happy. Is that wrong? Probably, but she doesn't care. She is sarcastic and witty and has a wicked sharp tongue. She is extremely loyal, however, and truly wants the best for her tribe and her two sons. She loves her sons more than life, but it's all tough love with her. Of course, there are times when all she wants is to have fun with her husband and sons. Paisley doesn't tend to be overly emotional, but is prone to fits of anger in high stress situations. In fact, she feels the most calm in the midst of battle and receives something akin to a high from the situation. She is very goal-orientated and does her best work when she gives herself something to strive for. §|§
ѕнσσт ƒσя тнє ѕтαяѕ §|§ Zane Timal §|§ 23 §|§ Dapple Grey Mustang §|§ Standing at 6'3, Zane is a tall and lanky individual. A fine layer of muscle covers his tanned arms and legs much like a horse. His disheveled strawberry colored hair hits the nape of his neck, contrasting nicely with the sharp blue and green of his eyes. When he smiles, dimples pop up on his cheeks and the sharp point of his chin seems less severe. With broad shoulders and a tattoo that curls around the back of his neck, he could appear intimidating to any passersby. He usually wears baggy pants and loose fitting tee shirts, but will occasionally wear muscle shirts. Zane is knowledgeable and intuitive. A gentle soul, he speaks in soft tones and hardly ever raises his voice. He tends to find the good in people and neglect the bad making him a great (yet sometimes naïve) friend. He has an uncanny talent for giving advise even if he has never experienced a certain situation before. He loves the water and he enjoys late night swims in Lila Lake. He hates confrontation, but isn't necessarily a pushover. Despite the fact that he is gentle, he can have a violent temper if severely provoked. It takes A LOT to get him to that point however. §|§

(Finally worked up the motivation to write a starter for everyone who’s joined lol)
xxx
Jethro stood at the top of the hill the Alpha’s hut, watching over his Tribe as they began to stir. The sun was just peeking its golden head over the horizon, and with the first rays, the Tribe would awake. Then the entire clearing would be a bustle of activity and hunting parties. Jethro relished these few moments before dawn, when the Tribe still slumbered and all was quiet. He stretched slightly, before turning back into the Alpha’s hut. Better check to see if anyone is waking up yet, he thought.
xxx
Noel was already wide awake, trying to make as little noise as possible as she got ready for a trip. Alari was waiting in the doorway, curious nose sniffing every one of her friend’s herbs. Noel chuckled slightly. “You helped me find all of these,” she whispered. “Why are you still curious about what they are?” Alari tilted her head, staring up at Noel with wide brown eyes. Noel sighed, shaking her head as she fastened a makeshift bag around her waist. “Alright,” she said, following the fox’s lead out of her hut. “Let’s get going then.”
xxx
Kamaria was busy snoring outrageously. She was still fast asleep in her hut, completely oblivious to anyone attempting to contact her. Not that she minded. She was having a wonderful dream.
