RE: Carja X Talys & Carja X Temperantia - Carja - Jan 05 2021
Child Name: Up to adoptee!
Gender: Up to adoptee!
Species: Angel/Dragon
Appearance: [Insert name here] is twenty feet long from nose to tail when fully grown. They have four legs and six wings, with a pair on the head, shoulders, and tail. Each pair is capable of or at least assists flight, though the hybrid is able to float a foot off the ground, unassisted. Their tail is long and thin, with feathers breaking off into two fins, supported by thin bones, with the last vertebrae on the tail pointed and jutting out slightly. They have four eyes on their head, six on their neck, six on their chest along their ribs, and twelve on their tail; six near the base and six nearer to the end. All eyes see clearly and can be opened and closed independently of one another, and can look in different directions, like a chameleon.
They have fluffy, soft feathers all over, with armor plates along their shoulders and six horns on their head; four behind their forehead and two on the back of their lower jaw. Their talons are long and curved, and colored gold, with four fingers and a thumb on each foot, and a single finger with a hooked talon on their wings, capable of allowing them to walk using their wings also. Their chest, neck, and belly are covered in transparent plating, giving them armor on their vulnerable bits and exposing the muscles and veins beneath to viewing.
Element: Water
Stone: Fire Opal (Placement up to player)
Child Name: Vanyel
Gender: Trans he/him, they/them
Species: Drelf - Dragon/Fire Elf hybrid
Appearance: Vanyel is tall, incredibly so. It makes sense seeing as his mother is a 20 foot long dragon, but still. He’s exactly 7’2”, with slim features and long black hair that falls down his back in waves. He often braids it to keep it out of his face, though his most common style is two braids along his cheeks with his bangs pulled to either side and around his horns, with the rest of his hair pulled into a loose tail or braid at the base of his neck.
He has a thick, long chest, with defined muscles along his pectorals, collarbone, and shoulders that connect to his wings. He has extra bones and muscles in his chest to prevent his wings from tearing him apart, and the added weight of them makes him stand forward a bit more. His wings are large, about 18 feet in total width, allowing him to fly long distances and even use them as extra limbs. When not in use, though, he hooks his wing talons over his shoulders and lets them hang like a cloak.
His arms and legs are well defined and muscles, with armor plates on his shoulders and claws on the tips of his fingers. His lower legs are those of a dragon’s and digitigrade, with four toes and a thumb, capable of acting like normal hands. They’re very versatile and both his hands and feet have paw pads, enabling him to traverse terrain and grant him slight heat resistance.
He has scales all over his body and a pointed nose, with thick brows, heterochromatic eyes (the left being brown and the right cyan), as well as pointed ears and four horns; two grow out of his forehead and two jut out from his lower jaw.
Element: Fire
Stone: Labradorite

Alright lads lets do this-
The Temp x Carja baby is up for adoption!! I'll be keeping Vanyel for myself uwu! Adoption closes on the 25th of January!
Name: Up to player!
Gender: Up to player!
Personality: What's the little tyke like? What will they be like as a child? An adult?
Future Plans: What do you have in store for the
RP Sample: Write out a little scene here!!
Note for mama dragon: Carja will most likely wish for the children to remain in the Elenya camp most of the time while they're about a month old (for their safety and to teach them things), but two cycles and older they will be encouraged to explore and learn things on their own, but also to return to the camp (or to Carja, if she ever leaves) for visiting.
PS. don't think i won't be reading all of these!! even if you really really like someone else's writing or ideas more than your own, it doesn't mean yours isn't fantastic too!! go nuts!
RE: Carja X Talys & Carja X Temperantia - Comet - Jan 09 2021
Name: Arcelia (Lightwing) Elenya
Gender: Female
Personality:
Arcelia is elegant and angelic. She moves with fluid motions, poise, and gracefulness. Arcelia tries to have good manners too, and to be polite to everyone. Respect is something that has to be earned in her eyes, both for herself and others.
She is brutally honest. She doesn't see any point in holding things back, and it is better for them to know their flaws outright so they can work on fixing them. That said, if something really looks amazing, she will say that too. There is value in knowledge, which can only be achieved through honesty.
Being quite curious, she doesn't hesitate to question things and find answers. Although she is introverted, she has no problem talking to others or conversing. It just means that she wouldn't go into crowds without good reason.
She wants to make an impact on things, which is why she has taken up healing others, which she actually enjoys doing. It makes her happy to work, and when she is not working or doing something useful, she can get stressed. That said, sometimes she overworks herself. Arcelia is not afraid of blood or anything one encounters when healing. She works on through it, and won't stop until her work is complete. She likes to work on things by herself.
Arcelia is strategic, thinking through her moves instead of rushing into something head on. Planning out everything is the way to go. Her mind is calculating, trying to think of everything that might occur before acting out. All the more reason to get more knowledge, and get more accurate estimations.
None of this is to say that she isn't nice. Because she is. She is one of those animals who you would look to to give advice. Arcelia tries her best to help out animals who need it, although if she doesn't know the answer to something, she will admit that she doesn't and give her best guess. All the knowledge she tries to store up will certainly be helpful with this, so when she is young, she won't be the most helpful. But as she grows older, her knowledge will have accumulated.
Future Plans:
- Healer
- Genius or magic path but probably magic if healer
- Genius or master path could really go either way depending on things
- Advice Giver
RP Sample:
Arcelia had stumbled upon a gembound who appeared to be wounded from a fight and had immediately decided to help. First things first, she needed to diagnose the problem. The wound on the gembound's side appeared to be a deep gash. "How bad is it?" they asked her. Arcelia inspected it a bit more before responding, "Really bad. If I don't close this fast enough you're going to die of blood loss." A few beats of silence. "Oh..." came the response. "Alright this is going to hurt real bad but after it's over then you'll be fine. 'kay?" The gembound looked like it was still contemplating life decisions if it did die today, and didn't respond. She took that as an okay. Arcelia used cauterize on the wound, and the patient's screams of pain echoed throughout the clearing. That didn't bother her as she knew she was doing this for their good. There was a smell of burning flesh, but it wouldn't get infected now and it was closed. "Alrighty you should be set. Just no sudden movements. Also what in the world were you thinking of trying to attack a meadow deer like that? Don't you know they have really sharp antlers?" Arcelia sighed, she guessed not everyone was as invested as her in studying meadow deer. She definitely wasn't creepy at all for stalking one specific herd of them for several days to gain more knowledge on them for who knows what.
RE: Carja X Talys & Carja X Temperantia - Aethereal - Jan 22 2021
Name: Ascent (may change if I think of a better one)
Gender: None
Personality: i'm putting this in with future plans because my ideas are kind of connected and idk how to separate them
Future Plans:
- Probably going to go magic path, maybe beholder specialization
- When they first hatch, they'll be eerily still and observant. Over their juvenile cycles, they'll become more energetic, excitable, and openly enthusiastic, but by their 4th cycle they'll start settling into a calmer personality again.
- I kind of want to make them a kind of magical philosopher, figuring out connections between the elements and using their observations about magic to try to explain the world. They'd be the type to sit in front of a pond/lake for hours, just practicing one spell and try to refine their control over it until they can turn it into a kind of art form. For example, they might try to use Aquakinesis to create floating shapes/images out of water, or separate them into a cloud of individual droplets and hold them all at once. To them, improving in magic would be a secondary goal; the most important thing is that the discipline needed to reach a high level of control transfers over to other parts of your life and you can improve as a person. (I used aquakinesis as an example, but this could be lots of spells from different elements too.)
- Alternatively (or maybe both at the same time), they could become a sculptor and/or builder, using (for example) aquakinesis and glaciate to create ice statues. The more intricate, the better, because intricate=control over magic=discipline and control in other areas of their life.
- Observation would also be important to them, and they would likely use the different "sense" spells to help them figure out how parts of the world interact with each other.
- They are altruistic, and expect everyone around them to be the same way. They believe that individuals should make sacrifices for the good of the whole. Each individual's happiness should be ensured as best as possible, including the happiness of those making the sacrifices/doing the giving. In other words, sacrifice, but don't do too much of it.
- They give gifts to even strangers to establish a sense of friendship and goodwill. Thus, they could be considered generous, but they do expect future help in return.
- They have a strong sense of right and wrong. "The enemy of my enemy is my friend" and "pick the lesser of two evils" are not true for them, and they will stubbornly refuse to cooperate with both if they consider both to be evil. On the other hand, they will do their best to reconcile enemies/rivals if they believe both to be good.
- Restraint/temperance: as far as accepting gifts from others, they do so with gratitude, but they do not take more than what they need. To them, food is a gift too, and they might attempt to give back to animals/plants/the land by becoming a caretaker of sorts.
- They are patient and cautious - perhaps overly so. They may not take a good opportunity when it comes by if they don't feel ready, and they don't like taking risks. When making major decisions, they always like to consult as many people as they possibly can, and may become very indecisive/distressed if given conflicting advice.
- They have a dramatic side to them, wanting to appear mystical, wise, and "holy"/"divine"-like to strangers. They take on quite a critical, holier-than-thou attitude toward those they feel have done wrong, and may come off as distant and arrogant because of it.
RP Sample: set way, way after they hatch. Probably, like, master or transcendence-level.
Their many eyes were closed, but eyes themselves were but a physical barrier between them and the world. The ceilings, the orb-light, the caves' stunning biodiversity, and the soil beneath their feet: those did not disappear when their eyelids shut, and neither did anything else. They were all still there, living their lives and able to be beheld.
Carollers sang in the dense canopy across the river. Discerning ears could separate their chirps into each individual's unique song-- and, Ascent thought proudly, their ears were nothing if not discerning. There, where the meandering water curved near! Ascent opened their eyes. There was the closest, and this one (not an it, for they were all living parts of the world and not mere objects to be used and discarded) trilled and whistled a complicated tune, all while upside down.
The Carollers were not to be their main focus today, but Ascent felt and acknowledged their presence, as they did with the others: the trees, the river, the rocks, and everyone else.
They extended their magic, by now as familiar to them as another limb. The comparison was as literal as it could get when it came to this particular spell; when they lifted their arms, the surface of the water rippled and broke. A shining ribbon of water lifted from the river's flow, flashing and refracting orb-light. They opened their talons. The water split.
One globule, then two, then four, and soon enough an entire rectangular array of glittering droplets. They had done this before, and though it required focus and concentration still, they were ready for the next level.
"Follow," they declared, sweeping their arms out in a slow motion. The array of droplets wavered, and some dropped back into the river and were reabsorbed. The rest followed, though their formation was disturbed by the new motion. Ascent slowed their movements more. Patience is key. They must not lose patience with the array, for what was the purpose of this but to develop further internal control? They would do this well, or they would not do it at all.
