Fayne- "Not a thing," he answered sadly. "I've been searching for nearly two years now." He mustered the courage to make eye contact. He saw pain in her face too. "Do you.. share a similar story?" he asked her. Reluctantly, Nikita nods. Not many people feel worthy of the story, but this traveler has already shared his own. "Yes, I do," she admits sullenly. "My family and I were forced from our home when I was young and began to travel. One evening, my brother and I returned to our camp to find it empty. We never found our parents. Eventually my brother disappeared as well." (Sorry for the wait!)

(Awesome, winter! That's how I imagined them, too! My description from a few posts before was pretty bare bones. They're pretty much anthropomorphic animals, my favorite! ;D ) (Sweet! They're my favorite too XD. The last few descriptions of them were a little confusing, but knowing that's how they are it helps me imagine them better and now Fayne is just cuter than ever so Vince is how I thought of him as, and he's in that form all the time. Could just say they're in anthro form instead of half-form? Lol.)(You like Fayne?! Yay! ^-^ And I love fuzzy Vince, with his cute little accent ;D Yeah, let's do that! Calling them anthro makes waaay more sense xD I'll put anthro on the front page so it's clear to new joiners!)

(If anybody wants to have a better idea of what Nikita looks like, just look up runawaystuck!Dave! He's the closest thing I can find to the vision I had for her, even if her coloring is different. She could technically shift even more toward bird, but doesn't know how.)

Finnian could barely contain himself when he caught the rat napping, leaning against the building on the very edge of town where the trees loomed up almost suddenly against the sky’s backdrop. His inner voice—that conscience thing people were always telling him about—told him that it was a singularly bad idea, but he couldn’t resist. Moving quickly but silently, he crept past the bored guards who weren’t even paying the slightest bit of attention and reached out a grasping paw toward Ravage’s pocket. He stiffened in alarm when the rat seemed to stir, catching his breath and holding it in the fear he’d be discovered. He loved the adrenaline of it, the not-knowing-when-you-might-get-busted part, the way his fingers tingled and his step lightened whenever he pulled off a job. Surely the king’s right-paw rat would have something valuable on his person…. Finn eyed the rat warily, whiskers acutely twitching and wiggled his fingers as he inched toward his neck meal ticket. (I hope that doesn't count as godmodding, making Ravage slightly move? I didn't mean to, if it is.)

I was just about to answer you, but it seems like you've got it now! I've clarified it in the rules for future use, because I was waaay to tired when I wrote that awful run-on sentence xD So yeah, there's human>half-form/anthro>full animal. And anything in between, really! If you still wanted to edit your profile, just re-post it and I'll update it!)

I've been busy doing stuff so it doesn't bother me at all ;D ) Fayne- Without warning, Fayne took a step forward and hugged Nikita. Stranger or not, he knew the feeling of loneliness mixed with despair all too well. Whether she accepted his gesture or not, he suspected that somewhere deep down she needed a hug as badly as he did.

Ravage dreamed that there was a fly buzzing around his head. He could feel its presence and it irked him. He began foolishly swatting around in his sleep. "Stay back!" he shouted suddenly. "By Saber's whiskers, I'll have you executed!" He was flailing around idiotically, yet still appeared to be asleep somehow.
(Nah, you're fine! Ravage is my "advanced NPC" character, so you can mess with him a little bit, haha!)

(I was so confused. I thought when they shifted they're totally animal ---> "Werecreatures can completely transform into their animal form if they have had training. (A trained wererabbit can transform into a full rabbit, rather than a half-man half-rabbit"<--- so I messed up Finnian's post a while back. And I'm still a bit confused so now I'm not sure how to post... are they anthropomorphic when they phase or full-on animals?) (The characters have the ability to shift into an anthropomorphic version of their animal, but if they can control their shifting very well, like a firebender can control his temper, then they can take the form of their actual animal. My character Vincent is a werefox, he stays in his anthro form the whole time, but he can take the form of an actual red fox. Make any sense?
Sorry, didn't realize there was another page XD)

Ravage is my "advanced NPC" character, so you can mess with him a little bit, haha!) Several curses fluttered around in Finn’s mind and he paused, half-frozen in place as he eyed the guards from the corner of his eye, wincing when a blow from Ravage smacked him in the head. They hadn’t even turned around when their leader called out? Wow, he thought, they just don’t train guards like they used to. With a steadying breath, Finn resumed the task at hand, tail-tip twitching just slightly in anticipation of his prize. (it'd be hilarious if all that Ravage has in his pocket is lint XD)

Ravage sensed something. Something was not right. His eyelids flashed open. His glaring red eye focused on Finn. "YOU!" He roared. "What do you think you're doing, soldier?" Ravage quickly glanced around, hoping nobody caught him napping on the job. "Aren't you part of the Nightwing branch? Why are you here in this town?" His voice quieted down. He spoke convincingly, in a silky tone. "Listen here. I'll tell you what, friend. You don't tell anyone you caught me napping, and I won't tell anyone that you're skipping out on king Saber's army. You just have to do one tiny thing for me." He yawned and stretched his arms. "I'm mighty tired. I've been busy killing people and hunting down lions and foxes for days. I'd like you to stand guard. I'm going to take a nap, and I'd rather nobody.. disturb me. Are we clear?" His red eye glinted and he held his whipping tail in his hands threateningly.
(LOL I would die xD After all that effort too, ha!) (edit: If it's not clear, he thinks Finn is part of the army, because he's confused xD )

She needed time to think, but as long as they were out here, there wasn't any. *Maybe I can go somewhere else.* Arabella turned into her full clouded leopard form, "I have to go." Was all she said. It may have been calm on the outside with Jag and Vince but on the inside her mind was at war. Everything was just...going wrong for her. Everything was now so complicated and confusing; Arabella didn't mind being a guard but the system...was it controlling her more than she can control herself? *No, don't think about it, just...run* she leaped through the tunnel and opened up the bush covering before heading deeper into the woods, running as fast as she could. Even when her muscles screamed for her to stop, she wouldn't. She had to keep going. Arabella wasn't sure why, or where she was running, but it didn't matter. She just...needed too.

"So.... odd?" the crow called in confusion after the leopard, watching her disappear down the tunnel. Ir turned to the others, sighing in exasperation. "What the hell was that?"

Jag was worried about Arabella, who was usually calm and collected. Maybe she needed an outhouse? he thought, laughing to himself. "Right, everyone. Well, now that we're all armored up and we're in a safe bunker, I think it's safe to talk about our next move." He turned to Vincent. "Vix, I thank you for returning my father's armor to me. And I know you are smart in many situations, but I have a plan and I don't want you to try to stop me." He crossed his arms and looked away. "I'm going to go back to town. Before Ravage realizes that I've been gone. Then we will suspect me less. I'll go to the guard bunker, and convince the town guards to help me take out Ravage. If the king is as dumb as he acts, he'll be lost without his right-hand rat. I know it's dangerous, but.. I want to do great things and make my father proud...wherever he is."

Vince wanted to slip a word of advice to Arabella before she ran off but her feet were faster than his mouth. "I just hope the lass realizes that those close to her are more importan' than 'er duties. As me father said, there is no mercy for those that disobey the rules of a king, but there is no forgiveness fer those that turn their back on their kin", he said before turning to Jag. "Ay lad, yer father was good, but unfortunately he let the fear of Saber control his actions. He 'n me father had talked of rebelling a couple times, but it nevery got any further than a mere conversation", he said with a nod.

Jag shook his head. "Our fathers may have been great men, but they were all talk. If people everywhere are suffering under king Saber's paw, then I know we'll find allies out there. A revolution is coming, and we can change this kingdom for the better if someone would just make the first move."

Arabella started to see black spots clouding her vision and her chest heaved, trying to get in more air. The sharp pain in her side made Arabella collapse on the ground in exhaustion. She tried to get up but her body wouldn't let her. She was very far into the woods now, but didn't feel concerned even though she isn't sure how to get back. She might have ran in a large circle for all she knew, but none of it mattered now. She was too tired to move, not having enough strength to go back to her full human form. So instead she laid there in the mud in her full clouded leopard form. Mud didn't bother her anymore. Nothing did. Except for her mental battle. However, she decided it can wait. All of it can wait for a few hours. Just a few hours was all she needed to sleep. Her breathing shook as she closed her eyes and her flanks still heaved. It will get better...soon it will be better. She promised herself. The world was going away as she closed her eyes, in need of rest.
(I'm not sure if Arabella should die here, driven insane by her mental state and exhaustion or if I should just wait a bit)

(It's your call! Though I think it would be cool if she died in battle too. I have a really great idea that we can try if you want, but she would have to be alive for a bit longer) (Also I'm going to be at class for a few hours, so I'll respond as much as I can!)

(Good afternoon all! Just a heads up that I'm moving into my apartment tomorrow, so I might be gone.) Nikita // Tags: FernclawNikita startled at the sudden contact. She swept an arm out to dislodge the larger boy in an instinctive defensive move, but it was half-hearted as she realized what Fayne was doing. Instead of the rough hit to the ribs she nearly delivered, she uses one hand to pat him awkwardly on the back and the other to check that he isn't trying to pickpocket her. "It's, uh... it'll be alright," she tries, missing a comforting tone by a mile.

"What exactly are you two doing?" Ir asked, squinting her eyes. Ir could already feel the coin in her pockets from this prospective job, or perhaps the exhilaration one gets from going against authorities. To tell, or not to. Ir chirped quietly as she mulled over her decisions.

(Good for you, ice! New apartment, woot!) (I laughed so hard at Nikita though xD )
Fayne pulled away, completely oblivious to Nikita's discomfort. "What kind of werecreature are you?" He asked, out of the blue. Normally he could easily pick out characteristics. But with everything crazy happening these days, he didn't want to make an awkward mistake.

Jag shot a glance at Vix, then turned to Ir. "I'm going back to the town, and I'm going to start a revolt. Are you with us or against us?" He tried to think of a reason why she would join forces with them instead of turning against them. "And I'm sure Ravage would have a gold coin or two on him, being the rat that collects everyone's taxes."

(Whales, I'm going to do my plan now, but it's slight god-modding because of moving your character's location, so let me know if you approve or not! Or if you don't like the direction this is going in, then I'll change it ;D )
A trapper carried a covered cage to the throne of the cage. "A rare present for you, my lord." He pulled off the covering blanket to reveal a clouded leopard.
King Saber had accepted the present. Clouded leopards were rare in these parts, and owning one would make him look more powerful. The cat had been found in a dazed shock, but otherwise in good health. They placed her in the castle, so when she woke up she could be the king's housecat.
