@Ebooz @Carved_Ice @Turokai @Oovie OOC; It has come time to start this thing!  I have simple rules, quite simple, so follow them!1) Please write at least two sentences. 2) No god-modding. 3) If there is an element you want to play that is not listed please address me here(eg; sand, mist, etc.); mixes of elements are fine (eg; fire-dark, water-earth, etc.)) 4) Follow Subeta rules! 5) HAVE FUN! Light - Dark ((I'd like to make a note here, just because you're dark doesn't mean you have to be evil, and vise verse with Light and any other elements.)) Lightning - Water Fire - Ice Earth - Wind My Characters Name: Neith (Nit for short) Gender: Female Element: Water Description: Blue-green iridescent scales cover the body of this four legged beast. A long, ten inch silver horn sits on her head; matched by four silver cloven hooves semi-hidden by long black fur. Her ears are fin like, and match her iridescent color. A long dolphin-like tail drapes behind her. Trailing from the base of her horn, through her black curly mane, across her back, and down her tail are small spiny fins. Flowing graciously from just behind her shoulders are wing like fins; they may drag on land, but are glorious under the currents. Underwater her eyes may be a monstrous black, but on land the sun dances on them, coloring them a beautiful, bright blueish-purple. She stands at 5' 6" at the shoulder. Name: Aruna (hates when people call him Aru) Gender: Male Element: Fire Description: His body consists of white fur. A golden horn, twelve inches long, rests on his forehead, matched by golden cloven hooves. A giant flame makes his tail and mane, and runs down the length of his back, connecting the two. The flame grows in size depending on his current emotions. His eyes are a soft dark grey color, like smoke. He much resembles the good king, Larus, and rumor has it that he is the king's only living heir, hidden away for protection. He certainly does have a princely atmosphere, but he has the mind of a warrior, and the heart of a knight. He stands 5' 8" at the shoulder. Small Setting Description The land of unicorns, dubbed thee Land of Aereus, is vast and much like Earth; beautiful seas and forests, countless glaciers and volcanoes, magnificent displays of weather; tossing winds and large thunder-heads. There are of course the miscellaneous lands too, like sandy deserts and misty swamps. And we mustn't forget that there are evils as well as goods in this world. Short Plot Description The good king Larus, a fire unicorn, has recently been murdered and his throne stolen ad claimed by his evil step-brother, Feran, a dark-lightning unicorn. So sudden and shocking was this news, and how quickly it spread, the unicorns of this land, Aereus, have little knowledge of what to do. There is talk of rebelling and talk of seeing these bad times ahead out. Surely there is a unicorn looking to lead Aereus into war against the king. ((I was thinking of making Aruna that rebel leader.)) ((I will make a post once others have some characters going. ))Last Edit by:

Name: Teneska {Eska}
Gender: Female Element: Ice Description: She has white fur, tinged every so lightly with blue. Her eyes are a black color, though they seem cracked like ice would be. Her horn is small, only 8 inches, and a dark shade of blue, almost black in appearance with her matching hooves. Her mane and tail shift from a watery blue to a white tinged blue to different shades that might cause one to think of ice, water, or snow. She stands 5' 6". I wish to be the Ice that so Haunts me... |

Caspian Gender: male Element: Lightning Description: Caspian is a fiery young colt the color of sunlight with a snowy white mane that extends over his back and blends into his tail. He surveys the world through bright orange irises flecked with gold. He is quick on his feet and forever bursting with energy. The colt is scarcely a yearling in size and rarely thinks before he acts. Caspian's horn is thin but extremely long and has interchanging colored bands of cream and white. He has one white stocking on his left hind leg and a star at the base of his horn. There is a rumor that Caspian is a relation to Feran, so he is often discounted as untrustworthy. Picture Sample: [ x ] Sable Victoria Gender: female Element: thunder Description: Sable is a strong and beautiful dappled grey with long dark legs, snowy white head and an unusual thick yet elegant peppered mane, tail and feathers which cover her grey cloven hooves. She gazes through irises the color of polished stone with slivers of indigo and black. She sports a strong, smooth horn to match the color of her grey coat which sprouts from a solid base between her eyes and curves upward not unlike the crest of the moon. This oddly shaped horn weighs a great deal and takes much effort to lift in the fashion that she holds her head. It is said that the strongest of her kind could not possibly lift it, though none have ever tried. So this is still just a myth. When she runs her movements are fluid like water and to look closely, one might just see the earth lightly ripple with each hoof beat. She is solitary in nature with a strong conviction for mutual peace and understanding, and runs with Caspian who is still too young and strong-willed to take care of himself.

Name: Elulia
Gender: Female Element: Wind Description: This unicorn has a faintly silvery hide and large, pupil-less eyes glimmering with a random rainbow of hues that never seem to stay the same from one moment to the next; they often don't even match each other. Overall her body resembles a doe more than a mare. She has a long sinewy neck, a narrow muzzle, lean belly and delicate legs more suited to fleet bounding through the air than a steady gallop across the ground. She has a leonine tail tipped with a puff of pale, silky hair that matches her shimmering mane and flowing fetlocks. Her cloven hooves and sharp 12 inch horn are as clear as glass and as solid as diamond. She seems to an adult but her exact age is something of a mystery... she has been known to frolic foalishly through the skies or offer the riddling wisdom of an elder to passers-by. She's quite small for a unicorn, standing only 5'3 at the shoulder. |

@Carved_Ice @Oovie (( Alright, here we go, sorry I took so long. )) Sparks flew up from his golden hooves as he paced back and forth across the small darkness clad meadow. The moon was shining, but it was only a sliver. Occasionally the large stallion would rear up and run the circumference of the purple flowers that grew all about in the clearing. After a while he slunk slowly to the center where he stomped ferociously; murdering the poor flowers that fell victim to his flame embodied hoof beats. He shot a glance at the mermaid like mare that was sitting and watching him. The two had been friends for quite some time. "Aruna.. Maybe it's time to go home. They obviously don't want to be a part of your rebellion." Her voice was smooth and flowing, like a cool stream. She gave a sigh and glanced moon-ward. Despite the reigning darkness that had taken over, this land was still beautiful. Her dolphin tail swayed hopelessly behind her; her fin wings plasterd to her sides with no hope of moving unless underwater. Aruna huffed and snorted, "or those poor foals have no sense of time." He watched his friend's movements. "Nit, surely there are some unicorns that want to fight. Surely not all of them want to roll over and show their bellies." He huffed again, stomping on an innocent mushroom. "Maybe they're smarter than you to start rebelling right away." Her voice this time seem more closely compared to a waterfall, or a downpour. "Now, either we go home, or you stop ruining the vegetation here." She huffed at him in an almost mocking way. Last Edit by:

@Inari_fox A breeze heralds the arrival of the first potential rebel; just the faintest whisper of air slowly strengthening into a gentle leaf-tugging wind. In mere seconds a dainty creature comes leaping soundlessly down from above. She is wingless, but her mystical bond with wind and sky allow her (and those she chooses to hold aloft) to ascend to the clouds whenever she wishes. Even when she lands, her transparent hooves hardly seem to bend the grass below her. "Salutations." She says in a fluting voice. "I have been nearby, awaiting the others; I thought it time to reveal myself before you gave up and went home. Patience is a virtue. Some of those who offer their aid come from far away, and none wish to be followed by the Dark Storm's spies." Although the petite unicorn is presumably addressing both of the meadow's fellow occupants, she looks at Aruna the most. There is a strange recognition in her eyes, her colorful flashing gaze seeming to study him with almost unnerving intensity. What is she thinking? Just before the length of her stare can become awkward and prompt a question, she offers an introduction. "My name is Elulia." Last Edit by:

xxxxxThe mare's smooth dappled neck hung low as she picked her way through the vegetation. The soft moonlight flickered over her great crested horn, which gleamed despite the impending darkness. She questioned her judgement in coming here. The concept of rebellion was not a new one, she herself had entertained the possibility sometime ago. But she had other, more impending responsibilities to see too first. "I'm tired! Why can't we stop?" She gave a deep sigh and rolled her eyes. Maybe it wasn't a good idea to entertain this meeting after all. "The whole idea of traveling at night was to avoid drawing attention, little one." She nickered with meager enthusiasm. "But-! Oh! What was that?!" The golden colt perked his ears as a bright flourish of light caught his attention. She paused briefly and raised her head. "I'll be right back!" The colt chirped with excitement before taking off in the direction of the glade. "Little one! Wait!" But he was gone. She groaned before picking up a brisk trot after him. This was going to be fun. xxxxxHe could faintly make out light conversation as he approached, only making out the word 'rebellion' and someone else's soft words before hurtling into the clearing. The colt quickly dug his hooves into the charred ground and slid to a stop just inches from a face encircled with a mane of hot flames. "Caspian!" She called as she cleared a hedge of underbrush and landed gracefully in the clearing. The ground pulsed lightly as she found her footing. "You foolish colt!" She snapped. "Have I taught you nothing of patience." The colt was not sure who was the more imposing. The stallion with flames on his mane or his guardian mare. "Forgive me Master Aruna." She addressed him most formally. "May I introduce Caspian, before you incinerate him that is." She raised her head and snorted. "Good evening, I am Sable Victoria." She bowed her head to each of them before ordering Caspian back to her side. "Forgive him his impatience. He is young." Last Edit by:

Aruna shifted lightly, his flames rustling at the breeze. His face alighted with pleasure at the arival of another unicorn. "Pleasure to meet you, Elulia." His tounge tripped over the name slighfly, but he managed to say it clearly.
"See?" Neith spoke up at this point. "Your 'followers' are smarter than you." She snickered lightly. Aruna huffed at his companion's comment before going to introduce himself to the mare of the sky when he was inturpted by a sun colored colt. He reared a little, backing up. He landed a little hard on the ground causing a flower to catch fire. He huffed at the colt. "You shouldn't be running so carelessly." At the sound of his name he remebered the intoduction for Elulia. "Oh, yes, I am Aruna." He gave a slight bow. The mermaid-unicorn stood from her seated position. "And I am Neith; Nit for short." She turned to Caspian's 'keeper', "Pleasure to have you." |

xxxxxCaspian pulled himself upright and trotted back to Sable's side, his head hung lower than usual out of embarrassment. He was headstrong, most colts were. But he remembered his place and so she let him be. "The pleasure is mine," she responded, "though do not count your allegiances before they are born." She shifted her stone cold gaze from Neith to Aruna. "I have heard talk of unrest and how one might wish to challenge the cause." She tossed her head and took a step forward, respectful of stallion's standing and not, at the moment, wishing to challenge it per se. "I have little respect for talk, though littler still for foolish endeavors." Caspian perked his ears and took a brief pause to survey the clearing. He tossed his head at Elulia and extended the greeting to Neith, his bright eyes flickering with curiosity at the nature of her form. He had never seen one of his own kind with fins. How strange. "So have I happened upon a midnight meeting of stories and talk, or a promise to right the great wrong that plagues our land?" The mare raised her head, her great horn gleaming in the light of Aruna's mane. Last Edit by:

The silvery windborn creature regards Aruna solemnly as he offers his own name. "I know." Is all she says, her voice barely above a whisper. Elulia's slender head then pivots atop her long neck to appraise the other arrivals. Her front hooves prance in place a bit as she watches the golden colt tear about the meadow, a little smile warming her enigmatic face. For now she seems content to let the powerful dappled mare speak, awaiting the would-be rebel leader's reaction to her questions. Last Edit by:

Eska hesitated before joining the others, watching them from a distance before approaching. She didn't speak, merely giving her attention to those who were speaking. The light gleaming just right to make it a appear as river ice covered her fur, eyes curious yet uninterested in what was being said. The flowers around her hooves slowly wilted as they became covered in a thin frost.

Aruna huffed a little at the mare's words; cutting him somewhere deep. But she was right not to trust so willingly. "I am here to promise to right what has become wrong, but I can only promise if I have those that trust and follow me." He glanced around the clearing, regarding the icy unicorn lightly. "I would gladly raise my horn against the Dark King if my friend here," he motioned to Nit, "Hadn't talked me out of that suicide mission. I can not destroy this evil on my own, and so I have requested the help of many others." As if on cue, or some strange coincident that made him look good, a large group of unicorns exited the forest to join the rebellion meeting. There were unicorns of all elements, all different shapes and sizes, and even a few obvious mixes, some stranger than others as an obvious water-fire mix joined the group. Aruna smiled to himself, almost happy that such a coincident had taken place. "You see?" He glanced quickly at the ground and frantically moved his hooves against the ground, gathering some sticks on the ground. "Alone I am nothing," He quickly ended the life of a single stick, before gathering all the others in a tight pile as best he could, "But together, we can destroy the Dark Storm!" He stomped down on the pile, a couple sticks only merely cracking, but not breaking. Neith stomped the ground with her silver hooves in excitement. She smiled quite obviously; proud of her friend.

xxxxxSable's eyes wavered from the young stallion's face as she watched more of their kind dispel from the shadows. The herd was well diversified with pure and mixed alike, each with a strong and unwavering conviction in their eyes that only proved to amplify the fire in Aruna's own eyes. Although he had not yet proven himself wholehearted, the passion in his words was enough to convince her that this was not just talk. But a call to action. She lowered her horn. "Alright, Master Aruna. You have gained the support of this humble one." She raised her head and vigorously shook out her mane. "I trust that with your leadership, we shall rise to be a formidable adversary in the face of our enemies." She nodded in approval. Sable was not yet fully convinced of the success Aruna spoke of. But she knew that with time the nature of the beast would be fully realized, whether for better or for worse. xxxxx"We are invincible!" Caspian whinnied at the top of his lungs as he dashed to the middle of the clearing and reared up in a fit of excitement. "We can do anything!" The colt could barely contain his excitement. He fell back down on all fours and snorted, his eyes flying around the circle in boyish glee. "What are we going to do?" He questioned after a moment of silence. Last Edit by:

Elulia nickers a soft laugh at the colt's continued exuberance, leonine tail flicking back and forth in a very catlike manner. After a moment she prances forward to stand nearer the fiery warrior Aruna. Her body is surrounded by a hazy light. "That was quite a rousing speech, and your words ring true. A herd has strength one unicorn alone could never possess. But what to do with it? Shall we march upon the Dark Storm's home and slay any in our path? There are many who would support the current King simply because he holds the title... Honest and good creatures who do not yet understand the nature of their ruler, or who fear to cross him. What of them?" Last Edit by:

Aruna watched the excitment in the new formed crowd. He gave a light bow to Sable, smiling lightly. He stepped back lightly when the wind mare approached him. "Well.." He was obviously nervous now, his flames dashing about the air around him, and the area close to him getting hotter. "That's another reason I brought this meeting together. You see, he glanced at Elulia but quickly looked away.
Before he could go further Neith strode up to the mare of air and the flaming stallion. "He's not too good at gathering his thoughts, making him less good at battle plans." She snikered lightly beneath her breath. "He may be hot headed, but his heart is pure gold and in the right place." Her fin-ears flickered in an odd manner. |

xxxxxCaspian sat in the middle of the clearing and thought to himself. Sable took the moment to join him, nuzzling him behind his ear. "What is it, my wonder?" She asked. The young colt did not respond at first. She lightly pawed the ground, her mane rippling in an invisible breeze. "Caspian?" He looked up. "The pretty one said there are those who help this evil one, this prince." Sable pricked her ears. "Yes my dear, there are those who would support the Prince." Caspian nodded. "The pretty one says we might attack them all, but you told me that attacking an enemy blindly is not wise." She flicked her tail in agreement. Caspian hopped up and trotted over to the pretty one, Elulia's, side and tossed his head to get everyone's attention. "Auntie Sable says that to attack an enemy unknown in folly. I don't know this Prince you speak of very well. But if there are lots of our kind here, there will be lots of our kind there as well. And all over for that matter. He is the ruler." He flickered his tail. "I was once attacked by wild desert dogs. There was a leader and they all did what he ordered them to do. They were not scared at all. But then Auntie Sable charged them, the leader dog and the other dogs were separated." He pranced in place and pawed the ground as if reliving the event in his mind. "When they were all not together, the other dogs did not know what to do and the leader dog didn't have any support against Auntie. Then they got scared of us." He looked up at Aruna and swallowed as he watched the flames around him dance. "When the dogs were all together they are very scary and were going to eat me!" He hopped forward. "But when they leader dog and the other dogs were not all together, they were very easy to overcome." The colt perked his ears and looked around the circle. "Can we do what Auntie Sable did to the desert dogs?" He swallowed and tucked his head in, pointing his horn forward nervously. Caspian was second-guessed his words and worried they would laugh at him. Of course they would. For what did he know of battles and evil things? Last Edit by:

@Inari_fox @Carved_Ice @ibook @Oovie OOC Sorry, I didn't get this up sooner. Name: Tegant’alas Gender: female Elememt: Dark Fire Appearance: Standing 12 hands (four feet high) at her withers, Tegant’alas is a dead black emaciated alicorn, with broken wings that are nearly bare of tattered feathers. Her horn is a two foot, twisted double spiral of bleached bone. Bare bone shows through her desiccated flesh on her right eye socket, right foreleg, and left hindleg from cannon to pastern. Her tail is a whip of jagged bones tipped with a silky plume of black hair that matches her long and flowing mane. Her usually dull red eyes are set deep in bony sockets and her withered lips expose sharp white teeth. When angry, or using her power her eyes and hooves burst into flame. Despite her frightful appearance Tegant’alas is not an evil creature. Once the most beautiful of the fiery sunset painters, she was too proud of her own beauty and made fun of an ugly dwarf…, who just happened to be a god. Now undead, and cursed to dwell in darkness, she bitterly regrets her former hubris, and desperately wishes she could fly again. Her powers are now the opposite of normal fire. Instead of giving light, she casts darkness. Instead of warmth she emanates freezing cold, and instead of enlightenment she brings confusion. She is currently the loyal guardian of the current ruler, believing him to be the just and rightful heir. Last Edit by:

(( While I'm here.. If anyone hadn't noticed I wait for at least two people to reply before I reply, just so no one gets behind. Also, if anyone would like to know, I'm posting here what Larus and Feran look like;
Gender: Male Element: Fire Description: ((being lazy here)) Take Aruna's description, turn his horn into a spiral horn, and longer horn. Take his white fur and tinge it a smokey color, like it's been slightly singed. And, finally, take his eyes and make them a bright ember color. Also, one major difference, he's dead. Name: Feran Gender: Male Element: Dark Lightning Description: Resembling a shadow, his fur is a deep, dark black covered with scars from countless battles during the years of the unicorn wars(over 300 years ago). A long, eighteen inch, twisted ebony horn sets on his evil head, matched by chipped cloven hooves. His mane seems like nothing more than a black apparition, flowing constantly, even with no wind. It doesn't even look like hair more than it'd just a shadow. The tuft at the end of his whip like leonine tail matches his mane. If watched closely, his mane and tail occasionally set off green sparks in the air around him. His eyes are a deep, almost black, green. Around his neck sets a golden enchanted necklace with a bright emerald embedded in it. This enchanted item grants him flight through ripping shadow colored wings through his scarred flesh. Removing the necklace will cause the wings to disperse. There. )) |

Elulia listens patiently and quietly, bobbing her head when the colt has finished.
"A clever idea. We can certainly try. Separating the Dark Storm from his defenders will not be easy, though... He is a villain, but no fool, and surely knows as well as we that strength lay in numbers. Should we march upon his home with an army, he will be certain to keep a wall of defenders between himself and danger." |

The fiery stallion nodded his head, stepping a bit closer to Elulia. "What ever strategy we use, it'll need to be carefully planned. We can't quite march against his dark army," he looked around the group, "we're way too small for that." He pawed at the ground in front of him and shook his neck, small embers flying off his mane. He looked from the wind rider, to the lightning colt, to the mermare, and then to Sable, his smokey eyes taking in each unicorn. He looked up towards the sliver of moonlight. They were far from the Dark Storm's castle; it would take many phases of the moon to get there.
Neith seated herself once more, near the others. Her dolphin tail wrapped up around her front feet. "There would be much planning, ahead. One night will not be enough." She snorted lightly, also looking to the moon. "The dark night is almost here, the time when the Shadow King sends out scouts to pester the unicorns of the land; to steal from them, to attack them, and ruing their lives." She snorted again, and shook her head slowly. |

“Majesssty…,” The dry whisper rustled like dead leaves across the throne room floor. Feran glared disdainfully at his attendants and ministers, most of whom could not suppress their shivers at the chill that preceded his eerie servant. His deep green eyes searched the shadows quickly spotting dull gleam of her red ones, her illusions could be seen through by the strong of will. “You may approach the royal presence.” He announced regally, still reclining, on the thick, many colored furs that covered the raised dais in the center of the vast room. Jeran’s entourage, powerful unicorns of storm, wind, stone, and darkness, drew back as Tegant’alas seemed to materialize amongst them. The bare bone of her knee and horn clacked against stone as she knelt. “I have newsss. Rumors grow of dissent in the Sssouth.” “Rumors?” He shook his smoky mane. “I have no use for mere rumors.” He paused, considering. “ Go to the south my faithful servant. The moonless night approaches, you work well in the darkness. Go, and bring me the facts behind these rumors.” “Yesss, my liege. Your word isss my command” The nightmare stood, broken wings dragging, then with a flash of fire, she was gone. Edit: sorry, better?Last Edit by:

xxxxxSable softly pawed the ground, drawing her polished hoof about in such a manner that tiny whiffs of dust began to dance. She lowered her head, lost in thought as she quietly watched the display. The thought of rebellion stuck in her mind. There was certainly due course for such bitter feelings towards the Dark Prince, but she could not help but feel overwhelmed by the prospect of war. Of course, she would expect nothing less. Although he cared little for his subjects, he would never stand for such defiance. There were many little birds in the kingdom with hearts as black as his who no doubt have whispered in his ear. He would confirm such suspicions before taking action. He may have been evil, but he was not without his fair share of intelligence and forethought. He would carefully prepare and crush what resistance existed into the dust that now danced at her feet. She shifted her gaze to Aruna as he pawed the ground in frustration. He was filled with passion and desire, but lacked greatly in strategic planning. Neith was correct. There would be much planning to come, but there was a much more pressing issue to consider beforehand. The great mare gave a deep breath and dispelled the dust dancers in a cloud of debris and dead leaves. xxxxx"Mistress Neith is correct." She drew closer to the center of the circle where Aruna stood, strands of her peppered mane falling around her eyes. "The night of darkness is all but upon us and the Prince's minions and spies are no doubt crawling out of the shadows as we speak." She shook her head to dispel the strands of mane from her vision. "I advise we begin by ensuring our own survival and doing little to hinder them." She noted the snorts of derision and nervous shifting of hooves, then continued. "There are already rumors of a possible uprising coursing through the land. The Prince will no doubt investigate such claims and if he discovers anything amiss, he will crush the cause and anything remotely close to it without a second thought. We will have been finished before we even began." She stomped on a dried leaf and ground it into the dirt to complete her point. "So let us use these rumors to our advantage. Let the Prince believe that there is indeed a rebellion, a forc preparing to challenge him...but elsewhere." She drew her foreleg in front of her and then back under herself, drawing a line on the ground. "It would be a 'false rebellion', to mask the true one. The objective would be to draw his forces in the opposite direction, away from us. He is intelligent enough not to send everything he has to one place, though we may be able to spread his forces thin enough to have a chance at taking him outright." She swished her tail and addressed Aruna directly. "I'm sure you would agree that the beast is much easier to overcome when it's head is made separate from it's body? Then each may be dealt with in turn, rather than all at once." Last Edit by:

(( @Turokai Not to be sounding rude here, I love your post, however, I hadn't given you permission to put words in my character's mouth. Your post is absolutely fine, but please address me if you want to do it again. Feran is a cold, heartless creature, as if the devil himself, at least of unicorns. He would not have been chilled by the presence of a mere undead. Should he fear anything, it'd be his own death, but only at minutes before it happened. He is fearless merely because he is fear itself. He rides the darkness and leaves destruction in his path. Surly, you would've known that If someone made a character; they'd be the ones to play them? True, he is the 'evil' character in this story, and true I do have two characters technically, but.. Feran came from my imagination, and any role player would know that only I'd know him best, don't agree? ))
Aruna nodded in agreement to Sable's words. He shook his head gently. "Sable, if you don't mind, I'd like to make you, at least one of my strategists. I'm gonna need them, if you couldn't tell before." He shifted lightly on his four hooves. He looked out to the crowd of unicorns. "We will face fear itself, and death as well. This is no party with a bad-mood guest, or a playdate with your manorless cousin. This is a war against the Dark Prince; darkness itself swirls at his hooves like a docile kitten. There is no 'easy' to this battle. Some of you may not return home to your families that love you, so. If there are those of you who wish to leave, do so now." He pawed the ground again, sparks flying up. Few unicorns left, but there was some. They were mostly younglings who were curious warriors, but mother's foals in the end. The fiery stallion watched them go behind smokey eyes. He looked to the others who had stayed, and getting down to one knee, and placing his golden horn in the dirt, he bowed to them. Neith watched the commotion curiously. She watched the younglings leave back to their comforting, warm homes. Then, she watched Aruna bow in respect to those that had stayed. She nodded slowly before kneeling and placing her own horn in the dirt, bowing to Aruna. The others watched the merunicorn and followed suit. Raising slowly, his flames growing hot with embarrassment, he spoke again. "I respect each and everyone of you; you and your courage. You all will be valued in this war. I will not let you down." He huffed, in a brave-speaking manor, hot smoke leaving his nostrils. |

Gender: Male Element: Earth Description: His coat is the color of spring moss with white highlights on his shoulders and rear flank. His short mane and lion-ish tale are a smoky green, as well as his cloven hooves. He stand about 5'8". His muzzle is reminiscent of a goat, a short beard coming from his chin. His horn is rather small, maybe 8 inches, and looks as thought it was fashioned from the sturdiest oak. He is often seen talking to the nature around him, hearing its wise words. He isn't one for wars and big speeches but he will not stand for the horror that has befallen his beautiful Aereus.  Last Edit by:

(Hooray! I was hoping we'd get an Earth unicorn in the mix. :3 Welcome to the RP, @Haruko_42!)
The peculiar misty colored unicorn bows deeply before Aruna in return, the tip of her own pointed horn leaving only the tiniest dot in the loam beneath her. She is regarding him with that knowing stare when she rises again, and there is something almost sad in her whirling eyes. "I expect you won't. The heart that beats within you is a noble one." Her legs prance with sudden discomfort. "The darkness closes in. I can hear it's hunger on the breeze. As you stated earlier, we cannot remain here. There are some who are meant to join us who have not yet... As we part ways tonight, keep eyes and ears open." |

((Thanks @Oovie!!!)) "I do not wish for war.... but this beautiful land must be saved..." Ki spoke softly to him self. "I shall join them." Ki stepped gingerly out from his hiding spot amongst the bushes. He was covered from head to toe in leaves and with a shake of his mane the leaves flitted to the ground. Stepping lightly around a patch of flowers he approached the group. "Good evening to you." Ki put his right hoof in front of him, his left lifting as he bowed his head. "I am Ki Jivas and I wish to join to you." As he spoke his name the leaves rustled and a soft sigh of recognition came from the trees. Last Edit by:

Sable listened intently to the brazen stallion's words of warning as well as encouragement. He may not have thought it to be true, but he did have a way with words. She diverted her gaze for a brief moment to the colt by her side as he jumped back and forth in pursuit of a particularly bright firefly. He was an idol young thing, but at least his heart was in the right place. He did need some encouraging from time to time though. He pranced back and forth in curious delight before falling headfirst into the dirt. Sable pulled her foreleg back under her and bowed her head low, tossing her muzzle at Caspian to encourage him to remain still. He huffed impatiently and rolled his eyes, but remained on his knees. Once there had been a brief moment of silence and the last of the yearlings had left the clearing for home, Sable pulled her head up. Caspian followed suit, jumping to attention with a particular spring in his step. "I would be honored to assume the position, Master Aruna. Thank you." She said calmly as she tossed a few more tuffs of mane from her eyes and shifted her gaze to the fleet of foot Elulia. The forest breeze had picked up slightly during their meeting and already the stars were beginning to disappear under the misty grey haze of clouds from the south. "Master Aruna. I recommend we depart from each other's company for the time being." She surveyed the group briefly, taking mental stock before continuing. "I suggest we depart in groups of two or three, well away from each other. The groups would disperse and keep out of trouble, if possible, until the night of the dark moon has passed." She shifted her footing. "The small groups would ensure the security of those who have pledged their services tonight, for one of us alone would be in jeopardy and anything gathering larger than three would draw unwanted attention. We can reconvene sometime after the dark moon has passed, though not immediately. This is a dangerous time and we must be vigilant, not only of our enemies, but our friends as well." She nodded her head to Elulia and then gave a subtle greeting to the newcomer. "Welcome Ki Jivas." She turned her attention back to Aruna. "What say you Master Aruna?" Caspian jumped forward and skittered to Elulia's side. "Can I be on pretty Elulia's team?" He perked his ears and looked around. The silence was overwhelming. "What?" He asked, completely serious.

Aruna nodded, his flames seeming all the more brighter as the sky grew darker. "Groups of two or three would be good." He spoke gingerly. He lowered his head slightly in recognition of Ki. He glanced from wind-kissed mare to dapple-colored mare, and he couldn't decide for the life of him which he should accompany. And, then there was Nit. Of course, the mermare could take care of herself, he's seen it before. But surely these other mare's could do so too? Sable was smart, oh so brilliant. And, Elulia was quite intelligent as well; very wise with her words and thoughts. He pawed yet again at the ground in front of him, this time being cautious of lighting any flowers on fire.
Nit waited, thinking she should to see which group Aruna attached himself to so that she may choose a different group. She giggled at the young lightning colt. "She is quite pretty isn't she?" She remarked, mostly to Caspian, but loud enough for the others to hear. She turned her head to Ki, her dolphin tail swishing slightly as she stood. "Pleasure to have you." |

Caspian snorted and tossed his head in embarrassment at Neith's comment. Sable took a deep breath and shook her head, amused. "No matter, young man. You will be remaining with me anyway." "But I-!" Sable stomped her hoof and Caspian jumped to her side. "Now, I suggest the groups be composed of those who are somewhat familiar with one another." She looked around the clearing. "It would draw attention I'm sure if there was a sudden jump in new friendships between those who would otherwise not have met." She glanced in the direction of Neith and Aruna. "There will be a handful of exceptions of course." Last Edit by:

Tegant’alas stalked from the throne room, cloaked in darkness. Silent on her fiery hooves she was virtually invisible to all save her king. Her King, who had just ordered her to leave the safety of the palace for the first time since escaping the prison of her tomb. She was not afraid, being undead made her very hard to kill a second time, but she was concerned about how to best gather the information His Majesty required. The sun would be an inconvenience. It could not destroy her like so many other undead, she was a fire unicorn before the curse that changed her life forever, but it would dispel all her shadows. Even full moonlight could shine through her illusions and show her as she truly appeared. The approaching darkest night would make it easy to move about, but most unicorns retired to their holts and homes at night. How was she to gather proof of an uprising? “Ullo Tegs” The deep voice startled her from her thoughts. A huge red granite statue moved, becoming a gigantic unicorn blocking her path. “I know ye’r there, it’s too cold to be anythin’ else. ‘Sides, I kin ‘ear ye’r wings draggin’.” It was Micah, one of the few palace guards who didn’t actively avoid her. He was as solid as the stone that was his element, but smarter than he let on. Now he stood snuffling the air, smelling for what he could not see. Tegant’alas dropped her concealment, the flames in her eyes fading to their customary dull red glow. “Ha! I knew it!” He neighed, prancing in place, the stones beneath him shaking with each hoof beat. “So what’ve those ghosts you listen to been sayin’ about what’s goin’ on in the South?” “The Ssspirits don’t really sspeak to me. They sssend me images, feelings of unressst. I sssee a sstallion of fire, charging with lowered horn through a lightning sstorm. I do not undersstand it, but I feel it iss a threat to our King. ” She looked up at the Stallion towering a full head of hands above her, his foot long horn of red flecked stone looking puny in his massive forehead. “Our King isss sso ssstrong” she hissed through her desiccated lips, “and yet I fear for him” “You? Afraid?” the dark hallways echoed with Micah’s resounding laughter… Last Edit by:

"The trees a happy to carry messages for us. We need never be unsure of the location of the other parties." As Ki spoke the trees sighed happily in agreement. "I would enjoy to go with Neith. Her element is very important to mine after all." He walked carefully to her side, bowing low to her, and straightening himself before speaking again. "That is unless someone else wishes to camp with me?' He said smirking a little.

Aruna watched the groupings and then nodded. "I will go with Elulia then." Seeing as to him traveling with Neith might actually be bad if others didn't know they're background. He carefully stepped closer to the wind-mare, being careful not get his flames too close to her fear that she herself was made from air.
Neith nodded to Ki and smiled pleasantly. "Sounds like a brilliant idea." Her fin-ears twitched lightly, the dirt around her turning into mud as she had been standing there a while. |

The dainty mare shakes her drifting mane wildly at the compliments on her beauty, hopping from side to side for a moment as though trying to shake off her embarrassment like an unwanted rider. "Well." She says softly, then a little louder to the lightning colt. "Well. Off we go with our kings and keepers, then." She seems almost to float to Aruna's side, pausing only a moment to gaze briefly at each unicorn gathered around; memorizing them before they take leave. "Such humble beginnings... You'd never guess..." She blinks her colorful eyes and her expression seems to indicate her thoughts puzzle even herself. "Ah. No. One night at a time, skydancer." She offers Aruna a sheepish smile. "Shall we make our homebound force a triad, or shall we trot off as we are?" Last Edit by:

(OOC), N.pc. introduction. Micah, Element= earth. Big draft horse sized grunt soldier/guard Honest, obeys orders without question. stomping hooves makes earthquakes. looks (and often acts) like he's made of red granite. Havis Element= ice Cold and cruel, she likes to cause pain both mental and physical in others. she is the pale blue-green of sea ice with emotionless black eyes and a broken icicle horn. King's spy. These two are just filler npc.s play with them as you see fit Edit: In Character;Tegant’alas stood silently outside the palace gates watching the last rays of the sun drop below the horizon. If her dry husk of a body had the ability to create tears anymore, she would have wept at the beauty of the sunset. Up there, flying unicorns who were once her sisters and brothers spread their fiery colors across the sky. There was no longer any excuse to linger, as darkness spread across the lands. Using the lengthening shadows, she wrapped herself in the illusion of an ordinary black and grey unicorn, and stepped forth on her mission. “y’ don’t think you’re gonna go an’ take off alone did ya?” came a deep voice behind her. How did that monster stallion move so quietly ? Tegant’alas wondered, turning to see that Mikah was not alone. Cold flowed from the pale mare beside him, almost as intensely as from herself. "Teg's, Meet Havis" "Tegant'alas" she corrected looking into the blue-white mare's round black eyes. She had seen eyes like that on a shark once. "That cold of yers is a dead giveaway" Mikah chuckled, amused at his own pun " Havis 'ere has a natural reason for i to be cold 'round her. Last Edit by:

Ki smiled at the lovely blue unicorn. "Well then my fair maiden, shall we move out?" He watched Aruna out of the corner of his eye, watching for any movement caused by his term of endearment. Shaking out his mane, a few leaves that were still caught fluttered to the ground. (Imma eat you Inari, makin me type and stuff.....) Last Edit by:

The mare's peppered hair danced subtly in an invisible breeze, her ears flicking this way and that as if listening for something that just wasn't there. "Well it appears that everything is in order and everyone has a companion." She surveyed the clearing once more to ensure no one had been left, then took a few light steps backwards and to the side. "Remember to look out for one another and keep Elulia's advice at the forefront of your thoughts: keep your ears and eyes open." She tossed her head and half reared, bringing her front hooves down hard against the cool earth. "There are many friends yet to be discovered. But enemies are just as plentiful, if not more so. Be careful." The company joined in her farewell with a great resound before dispersing in the forest from whence Aruna summoned them. "If it would be to your liking Master Aruna," Sable turned her attention to the stallion, "I would travel my own way with the colt during the Dark Moon." She tossed a glance at Caspian before continuing. "I fear we will be little company to you, more of a hindrance I'm sure in the times to come." She gave a sigh before turning to leave. "But I give you my word, I will do everything in my power to ensure that peace is restored to our realm. Until we meet again, farewell. Master Aruna. Mistress Elulia." She nodded to both of them, as well as the mercorn and her companion. Then without another word she nickered to draw Caspian to her side and departed into the dark underbrush that lay beyond the warm glow of Aruna's fiery mantle. "Auntie Sable?" Caspian chirped once they were well out of earshot of those left in the clearing. "What are we going to do now? We have no place to go during the dark time and what if we are caught?" They had taken to a brisk trot through the trees and it was some time before the mare answered. "I fear there is much we will encounter during the Dark Moon, though whether it is friend or foe, I am less certain." * * * * * (OOC: I would like you all to meet the newest addition to our little swaray.) Yashiana “Ana” Gender: female Element: tar Description: Ana is a beautiful young filly with a coat as soft and pure as fresh fallen snow and horn and hooves that much resembles polished silver. But her mane and tail are the most striking of her features, for they are composed of a thick, black gooey substance that ruins anything it touches. The sickly strands are long enough that they drag across the floor much like a sleek black cape and when standing still one could not tell them apart from simple shiny black locks of hair. It is only when she moves that one might notice the black trail that she paints behind her. Although everything she touches is ruined, the strands of thick tar roll over her coat like water over a duck’s back, leaving her coat as white as the finest linin. It is a mystery as to how this is possible. She may appear somber and shy though in truth she is one of the sweetest unicorns you will ever meet. She is quick to trust and somewhat naive, though her heart is in the right place. It is her only wish to discover a way to walk freely over the land without the burden of her cumbersome mantle. Yashiana is Feran’s cousin and only known surviving family member. She thinks very highly of him and will do just about anything he asks of her. Last Edit by:

((@Haruko_42 @Turokai @Oovie A question was brought up about other creatures in this world. There are indeed other creatures and all magical in one way or another. There aren't quite as many humanoid beings, however, there are faeries and pixies, probably some other small humanoids. I hope this answers any questions about what other inhabitants there are. ))
Aruna pawed at the ground, and nodded to Sable. Before the peppered mare and the lightning colt were out of the ring of luminescent light, he spoke to them, glancing first at Elulia the wind mare, then at Ki the earthen stallion, "We will use the wind and trees to send our messages. May you find good rest on this dark night, Sable.. Caspian." He glanced skyward watching the last sliver of light slowly fade. He turned to the skycorn, "Shall we be off?" Neith nodded, a little giggly to Ki. "I would not take me lightly, my good stallion." Her fin ears flickered lightly. "Let's be off." She turned to Aruna, regarding him with utmost respect. She turned and slid past Ki, motioning for him to follow. She stepped lightly into the darkened forest, her tail fin twitching up as she exited Aruna's light. |

(@Inari-fox Thank you, that does help quite abit.)
Ki turned to Aruna. "Until we meet again." He bowed and trotted off after Neith. "Is the somewhere specific you had in mind to settle down for the night? Or shall we continue moving until we tire?" He asked. As the two walked light music could be heard coming from the leaves, voices that seemed to hold music in their notes. "O môr henion i dhû: Ely siriar, êl síla Ai! Aníron Undómiel. Tiro! Êl eria e môr I 'lîr en êl luitha 'úren Ai! Aníron..."

After introductions were past the three unicorns set out into the deepening darkness, their cloven hooves the only sound on the lightning blasted and fire scorched plain. Tegant'alas led the way, following the fickle shadow voices. Beside her Havis shone in darkness like a fallen star, her jagged shard of a horn glinting like diamonds in the wan light of the dying moon. Behind them Micah towered, his massive head swinging as he watched their empty surroundings intently. The forest edge, though thin and stunted was full of life by comparison, and as they moved deeper into the trees the feeling of being watched grew strong. Nothing confronted them though as the three traveled southward, searching for signs of other unicorns. (OOC. sorry it's so short.. Work is busting my brain.
