Name: Calec
Pronounced: kay-lek
Species: Levii
Gender: Male
Description: Always dignified even when in a hurry, Calec has mastered the art of never appearing to be ruffled by anything. He walks with smooth, even steps that make his dark fur ripple like gently disturbed water. Once would think he would hate to get grimy but he glides right on through as though itâ€™s not even a barrier.

The room is done up in a plush style with thick carpets and a purple scheme that seems to fit well with the black marble walls. Maps, charts and books about the oceanare scattered here and there. The Kumos himself seems to be diligently peering at a massive map if the oceans surrounding the Omen Islands. As you walk in though, he looks up at you and smiles kindly.
"Welcome!" he greets you, "Have a seat; make yourself comfortable. I'm sure you have a number of questions for me."
"Thank you. So I hear you are actually from another world, is that right?"
Mercolo's smile freezes briefly before he sighs and sits back, "I should have expected this to come up. Yes, I am one of the original four whowere brought to Subeta from our birth planet: Neopia."
"I seem to have hit a nerve. I'm sorry. If you don't want to talk about it..."
He shakes his head, "It was inevitable, really. How many can say they were born on another world, died, and came back on an entirely new world? Of course some folks would be morbidly curious."
"D-Died?"
"Essentially yes. Well, to be more accurate, the rulers of Neopia became corrupt, to the point they froze many people for little to no reason whatsoever. We were part of that terrible event. Alkuna refused to let us languish. When she came to Subeta, she cut through the spells that held us frozen, extracted our souls, and brought them here. Our bodies are different, and we are... scarred... by the experience, but we are still going strong."
You manage to swallow past a throat suddenly gone tight with shared grief. Perhaps it's time to change the subject. "So when did your magic come in?"
This time his smile is genuine, "I tapped into it shortly after recovering from entering this world. I was Shadow colored then, and I wanted to be dark again. Dark matter fits perfectly, and my magic suits me just as well."
"Have you had any trouble, being Dark and all?"
He grins, but there is no friendliness in that baring of teeth. "Some. But they are listed as Missing."
"Er..."
"After all, no bodies were ever found."
"Right... *ahem* Do you have any favorite treats?
"Oh yes. Sea food and swampie fetus candies."
Er, yeah that's not creepy or anything. Nervously you say your farewells and edge out the door.

Mercolo is an honorable fellow who follows a personal code of chivalry. Seeming a bit too trusting of others, he nevertheless tends to find the right kind of person to place that trust in. A dark knight; loyal to Alkuna, protective and affectionate of Lacoda.

Another side of him is mysterious and dark... not necessarily evil, but dark. Walking the mysterious and alluring paths of the shadows, Mercolo can manipulate them to his will, even to the point of making the shadows act upon others physically. To travel, all he must do is step into the shadows... and he can appear anywhere there is enough shade.

It is said that Mercolo is one of three Dark mages who is responsible for the death of an enemy. Rumor has it that a high ranking member of a group of fanatics set his sights on Mercolo, proclaiming him to be an agent of evil. Mercolo rebuffed the man again and again, first gently, then firmly. When the man finally attacked Mercolo with a deadly weapon, a mysterious thing happened. The man went "missing." Poof. Some say Mercolo killed the man and buried his body somewhere. The truth is, there is no body left to find. The story ends there, and no further details are forthcoming. If asked, Mercolo merely smiles.... and does not answer.

Light does not battle darkness; rather, it is the opposite side of the same coin. So whenever you see a fight, it is always between individuals.

'Everyone' says that Dark is evil. 'Everyone' says that the Dark must always be defeated by the light. 'Everyone' says a lot of things, and most of it is wrong.

Wake up, this is not a land of gumdrops and rainbows. Nothing scars a soul like betrayal. Don't look at me and say that I know nothing of pain.

DARREN HAYES - "Darkness"

Been spending so much time underground
I guess my eyes adjusted
To the lack of light
I got
Covered in darkness
Covered in darkness

I have been waiting
Always waiting for something new
Happiness has always ended
In the blink of an eye
There was no one attending
No one attending

It doesn't really matter where it all began
All I know
I got covered in darkness
Covered in darkness
Ever wonder why I never really truly connect
Although my eyes are open
I can hold your gaze
But I am never connected
Never connected

I am famous for my generosity
They say I am the kindest
But it is easier to
Give than receive love
Give than receive love

It doesn't really matter where it all began
All I know
I was covered in darkness
Covered in darkness

Turning pages over
Run away to nowhere
And it's hard to take control
When your enemy's old and afraid of you
You'll discover that the monster you were running from
Is the monster in you

Better to hold on to love
Better to hold on to love
Change will come

It doesn't really matter where it all began
All I know
I was covered in darkness
Covered in darkness

It doesn't really matter where it all began
Cuz all I know
I was lost
I was lost
No, no

It doesn't really matter where it all began no no
All I know
I was lost
I feel lost
Lost
No...
