Male Gargoyle Protector Alacer (alert) name means 'alert.'

Alacer the I Will Always be There Protector Male Gargoyle
Speech Code: #e3e3e3

Appearance: This boy resembles a dragon that is more like those of the Far Easy on Earth, he is very much a lean and low to the ground boy. He has small wings that sit just behind his forelegs, he has spines along his back that allow him greater flexibilty and allow him to move as he likes. He has horns that curve over his head and arch back up much like a Ram's. He has long limbs that look gangly and awkward on his body.

Personality: He is a creature that loves to be around others, he's social and kind but he also knows when to keep someone safe. He is fully willing to jump into a fight if he feels intos the best interest of someone or something. He's sweet and kind to those he cares about but woe unto you if you are an enemy he'd much rather deal with you swiftly and go back to whatever he was doing. When he's with those he cares about he likes to talk about anything they're interested in and will listen to any conversation that is going on around him.

No matter how long goes between him talking to someone he's familiar with he will still protect them if his bonded asks it of him. He'd rather do his best to care for those that he wants to be around, if a friend needs him and he hears about it he'll be there no matter what.

Female Spirit Familiar Risus (laughter)

Mated to Orsum

Female Spirit Familiar Risus (Mate: Orsum)
Risus the Let's Play Games and Have Fun Female Spirit Familiar
Speech Code: fd00be

Appearance: This girl has chosen to take on the shape of a small dog, she is a brilliant shade of pink with neon green swirls all over her body. She has two tails and a frilled ridge from just behind her head to the base of her tail, her eye searing colors don't end on her body, her ridge is a brilliant neon blue that clashes against the other two. Her eyes like all of her rank are a vibrant purple.

Personality: She's a sweet but energetic creature, she loves to do things that are fun and always on the go. She'd rather be out there doing which pairs well with her mate but she also has a bit of a wisdom to her and she isn't stupid about it. She does have a fun loving streak that allows her to do things like play pranks on people, her favorite target is her mate. She'll often tell him of new things she's heard about and then pull the 'no not really' card when he's worked up and so they have to be calmed by their bonded.

She would rather go and see new things than hear about them or read about them, this is a counterpart to her mate who'd rather learn about it. She wants to live experiences and do things about them and be out there doing her best to be part of all these things, because clearly that's how you should live your life. Her mate Orsum is almost always driven crazy but her need to be out there doing.

Never Have to Tell Me Twice
Shoyi (Noble Nagakt) Grathkin (Showy) (Chimpanzee)
Rank: ☼☼☼☼☼

When Lakada spoke to Shoyi to inform her that she would be of those to be bonded, the Nagakt Grathkin didn't hesitate to stand up, pull a tan leather satchel over her shoulder, and begin walking toward the clearing, awaiting the large ceremony in which all the bonds would be appointed. Of course, this didn't mean she had to stop reading the book she was holding onto, either. This simple leather tome was one very recently obtained by the Grathkin, and she had already taught herself to read the language and was enjoying the rather enticing poetry of a man going through the perils of hell, the nothingness of purgatory, to find his lost love. She found herself cracking up constantly at all the satire and analytical association to those that had clearly wronged the author in life. While she had no relevance to the world in which it all took place, she was painting a pretty sound picture as she went.

What a bizarre sight indeed, as the black-furred Shoyi walked about on three limbs while the fourth held her precious book, those near-glowing amber eyes fixated on each important word. While most people would be very distracted in such a process, she has long mastered the art of being able to completely pay attention to her surroundings, even while absorbing useful information. She ducked and weaved around others also preparing for the ceremony, and without hesitation, even managed to successfully greet everyone she passed - without ever needing to look up once.

So, when Lakada discovered the angelic Raferties was a 'Lorekeeper', the combination was immediately accepted in her mind.

Nagakt are typically ambassadors - able to communicate in many different forms and languages, with multiple people at a time, and can often work as mediators. That is... not the case with Shoyi. She's social, and friendly, and charming, and has all the potential of her kind, she chooses instead to use any material she can to analyze people. Her favorite subject matter is always in relation to the mentality of the author, and the characters within, and rarely has fondness of generic fiction. Character development - that told her everything she ever needed to know. Now, she puts this vast knowledge to work with the ability to know everything about a person upon an initial greeting. From the firmness of a stare, to the handshake, eye avoidance, and tremble in the voice - she knew.

Because of this, many people will find it very difficult to look her in the eyes. She always projects the sensation of reading into a person's heart and soul, and knowing their dirtiest secret and greatest desires, and she absolutely loves the fact she can always help someone feel better, in some way, shape or form. You see, instead of a communicator or ambassador, Shoyi has made it her life work to be a Psychiatrist. She seeks to help -everyone- she ever meets, even if it is just mentally - making their state of mind 'better.'

The twin rings that decorate her forehead and indicate nobility are both white, complimenting her dark fur perfectly. When you can get her to meet your gaze (which typically only comes during a scheduled appointment, or when you sincerely need her help), she is always smiling - it seems nothing can get this girl down. It's probably due to her vast understanding of what makes people tick. Though, she's very private about this information, and would never use it for ill-gain - which fits perfectly with the Lorekeeper. So even should he ask her to reveal what someone is feeling, she won't - she'll only offer to help, on her own terms, ensure the person gets 'better.'

The Studious Scholar! Brass Firelizard Kessinger

Nothing quite beats a good book. Well, maybe writing said book. This Brass prefers studying and then chewing off whoever would listen about what they studied. This companion loves reading and trying to write. He loves chattering on about what he writes and being chatted at by whoever happens to be studying that same subject. He loves helping in the pursuit of knowledge as well. Bringing his bonded pencils, pens, paper, and all sorts of things to help. Why not help out a fellow scholar!? It's only natural to want to further the knowledge one has.

Raferties mentioned that he was simply curious, which was natural when one heard whispers coming from shadows. Most people might of brushed it off as simple hearing things. But Raf here decided that it needed to be investigated! Who knows? Might find something that was lost to the ages! Maybe bring his kid along, he could learn something too! This is something that the Scholar appreciates. It might be a little dangerous. But it was never to young to learn!

This Brass mottled was a disheveled mess. It's feathered wings and crest in a constant state of unkempt. No time to straightens one self when there was so much work to be done! It's scales reflected this. Often crooked, sometimes straight. It was all kinda there. The Brass coloring was prominent on this one. Only a few spots here and there lighter than the rest.

Flare Phoenix Empyrias Iuravi (Heaven's Solemn Promise. She was inspired by this song: (Thank you Owl!) Heavensward))

Speech: Italics #d4af37


From the Anniversary Bash, she is white-fired, and when she uses her Ignition ability she cannot burn things, but if Raferties touches her during this time he can hear (but not speak to) the Chorus once again. typically she can only do this for a few minutes at most, but on rare occasions, such as the Dya Solis Sanctus celebration, she was able to do so for over ten minutes straight.

Roc Day Female Susurri -- Raferties (name means 'whisper,' she's a soft-spoken bird, rarely raising her voice and taking the gentle caretaker side of a Day)


Roc Day Female Susurri (Mate: Iudex)
Susurri Peace is a Time of Growth Day Female Roc
Speech Code: #001c3a
Appearance: Susurri has also taken on the form of the Cedar Waxwing but she's much less blue she's more brown and tan. Which blends in with trees well and she also seems more alert than her mate when sitting, she doesn't fluff like him. Which makes her seem a bit more harsh than him but that's not true she just like looking fat.

Personality: Nurturing and teaching are the things she loves she would rather be helping to teach and caring than anything else. She's very much a maternal sort that would rather be nice to others and make the best of the world she has been given. She's the creature that will always go and comfort someone if they are hurt or upset or anything. She's a lover and doesn't believe in fighting unless her life or the life of those she cares about is in danger. She'd rather live in peace and prosperity than anything else, she's very strong in that opinion.

This girl is stubborn and that does take mentioning here because she and her mate Iudex stand on opposite ends of a specific argument on teaching. This leads to some tension but they are the type to still love each other even after a disagreement and this is a common thing for them thankfully.
