(Note: I may adopt this one later, but feel free to apply for them in the meantime!)


credit to Dark for the silhouette!
Child Name: Phlegethon (potential)
Gender: up to adopter
Species: Hybrid swamp whale
Appearance: this strange hybrid appears almost seal-like, with a streamlined form and sleek, slimy skin. Like a whale, it possesses baleen for filter-feeding, but like its life-giver also possesses a sharp upper beak and is capable of digesting almost any matter it can swallow. It has an extendable neck. As a baby, it will be around four feet long and capable of short bursts of movement on land with its fins- however as an adult it cannot leave the water without being crushed by its own weight. As an adult, it will be 20ft in total, from nose to tailtip. Like Nox, its soft skin can change texture and this is often used to show its emotions- but certain parts of its body possess small rows of hidden spikes that will give potential attackers a nasty shock. Like its mother, it constantly produces a slime that, in addition to being foul-tasting and slippery, is highly combustible. Its fins resemble Nox's wings, with strange, bubble-like growths running in stripes down its sides just above its ridged underbelly, and trailing from its tail flukes. It possesses small, vestigal fins just above its tailfins.
It has only one eye on the exterior of its body, which, like Nox's, is protected by its gem. This eye has poor eyesight, but the hybrid can open its mouth to reveal another eye in the back of its throat, red in colour with a slit pupil.

Child Name: Hunger
Gender: ???
Species: Hybrid (Alligator x ?)
Element: Fire
Stone: Jasper (location as yet undecided)
Appearance:



Similar to an alligator in shape, but with longer limbs, and a more slender tail. Snout narrower and sharper than an alligator's. Somewhat more lightly-built overall. Has its father's scutes and scales, unable to flex into small places like its mother. The scales are a dull jet black, but the sheen of oil that coats them, near-constantly dripping, sometimes lends them a matte rainbow hue. The forelimbs look as though they were to be wings--as Nox's--but never quite got there, and instead are merely oversized, spiderlike forelegs used to shuffle around the swamps and little else. These limbs are folded by the side (near-hidden) or splayed out when not actively in use. All four feet are webbed. Moss tends to grow over Hunger's hide, and then be coated by the oil, rotting away or hanging half-dead.

Capable of bursts of violent speed, and can move far more quickly than the alligator parent at sustained speeds, but is not fast compared to most, by any means. Still an ambush predator.

No visible eyes; black eye sockets visible if one peers closely enough into the black muck of the face. Externally blind. Opening the dripping mud-maw reveals rows of sharp, black teeth, and a single red, slit-pupiled eye at the back of the throat.

Size is in keeping with both parents: 17 feet long, but only a few feet tall, generally squat to the ground like a crocodilian. Will share Nox's absolutely insatiable hunger, and though it has a tongue like Dragon (albeit black), it still communicates primarily with movements of the throat, resulting in a gurgling, deep, unsettling voice.

In short, a Lovecraftian monster.

This conception was Successful! The litter will emerge November 7th.

Nox will not be able to conceive again until February 7th.

I will randomize the Hallowed Caller child later today

Child Name: ???
Gender: Unknown (up to adopter to decide if it comes to know one)
Species: Hybrid - Hallowed Caller x ???
Element: Fire
Stone: Jet
Appearance: Its skin is slate in color with a layer of thin black goo covering it; this coating excretes in thicker amounts after a meal, and can be very goopy and thick if the meal was large. It has a single red eye in the middle of its forehead and a short muzzle-like mouth that is very hard, almost like a beak. It has no teeth and no tongue but can change the texture of its throat to make sounds and communicate. A crown of black feathers adorns its head; these same black feathers make up its small wings that it can use to glide, but cannot achieve full flight. It has long forelimbs for its wings, tipped with clawed paws. When it stands at full length on its forelimbs, its body is slanted and stunted looking due to its smaller back legs, ending in talons like that of a bird. A medium-sized prehensile tail drags behind it, slightly spiked at the base and at the end. Similar spikes can be found at the base of its neck and under the feather crown on its head. It has rubbery bones within its body and hollow bird-like bones in its forelegs.

It is slow and awkward moving on the ground, and may find some sort of hopping easier at faster speeds.

As an adult, its mass is mostly muscle but it does not weigh a lot, around 80 pounds; it is only about 3 feet tall at the shoulder when full-grown and 4 feet long, 5.5 feet including its tail. Its slanted body and awkward walking angle may cause neck, shoulder, and back pain as an adult. As a juvenile (hatchling), it is a mere 6 inches tall and weighs only 8 pounds; a fluffy layer of tiny feathers is growing on its head with slightly longer, though still fluffy, feathers growing on its forelimbs.

At first, its gem will not be visible, but will grow to protrude from its chest when it matures (likely often covered by slime). Its flesh and organs can be seen dimly through its gem if light hits it right. The jet's raw and layered appearance makes it shimmer at odd angles.

(The red on the flying silhouette is to indicate where the gem is.)

So, the whale and the caller child are going up for adoption! Please note that if the child falls inactive I’d like to ask permission to either re-adopt them out, or play them myself.

Winners will be chosen on the 7th of November!

To apply, simply post the details listed below

Name: (for the whale, phlegethon, for the caller child your choice!)
Gender: (anything is fine!)
Personality: (at least 100 words)
Rp sample: (at least 100 words)

Name: Syha'h'ai (Eternity Call, or just Eternity if it bothered to translate for someone)

Gender: Agender, it/its

Personality: It moves with an alien grace, an unnatural yet still alluring beauty--even in its childhood, it seeks to turn its awkward gait into something attractive and beautiful. It sets its gaze on you, and you feel a pull--although whether this pull is from your own mind or its magic is unknown. It opens its mouth, and the gemstone upon its chest sings--and then, it is gone, gliding through the air upon a current of wind, the only thing remaining being a few droplets of strange goop. This is this creature, and all it's ever wanted to be.

Space, time, morals, relationships, even self-preservation: all these are alien to this creature from an early age. No matter what efforts another takes, these will stay unknown concepts to it. It simply cannot comprehend them. It is merely a husk of a living, breathing thing--it does not want for food, nor water, only seeking it out to stay alive. It will take whatever it wants; the taste of plants or flesh blooming on its tongue is a foreign want, one that it does not desire. It rarely speaks.

In childhood, it is clumsy, awkward, unused to this world. Its words are slanted awkwardly, often replaced with words of another, incomprehensible language, almost instinctively--if instinct were a part of this creature. It hates itself, hates its reflection, and everything it is; childhood was not meant for this being. It hides itself away, only coming out if spotted or if found by an unnatural creature like itself; although it will soon turn away from these upon realizing that they are not like it.

In adulthood, it is graceful, beautiful. The shyness from its childhood quickly melts away, to be replaced by alien allure. It seeks to lure others to it, give them glimpses of its form until they finally follow it into its den, where it begins its real process: examination. It has a fascination with other creatures, especially those that are most unlike it, and loves to pick at their feathers, comb through their fur, make their gemstones sing for it as it circles around them. If they choose to flee, it does not chase--it merely waits for them to catch a glimpse of them again, and return.

RP Sample:

Cetus was still. No birds chirped, no mice scurried, no plants rustled--it was absolute quiet, like n'gha.

It was curled up beneath a bush, watching. It nnnfhtagn; sitting there in the stillness.

A commotion, distantly, drew its attention, disturbing the clarity of the swamp. It stood, awkwardly. Mnahn'ya, it thought, moving forward on legs not meant to do much of anything, goop dripping onto the ground. Slowly, it dragged itself forward, peering out into n'ghft.

It spotted the source of the disturbance at once. A cave deer, being torn apart and feasted on by some unknown being: both much, much larger than it. It moved forward, and the being turned, eyes glinting, tail flicking.

Syha'h'ai smiled, twisting its mouth in a facsimile of what it had seen others do, showing teeth. Its eye traced over the being's fur, following its patterns and becoming enamoured by h'bthnk. Deep from within, its voice bubbled forth, distorted from disuse. "Hello." it said, voice surprisingly deep for such a little bird. "Hello."

I've just finished combining both the art i made and Dark's into a sketch which better represents Phlegethon's final design!

I caved.

Name: Phlegethon
Gender: Agender
Personality:
As a child, Phlegethon is excitable but rather prone to what some may call violence towards anything that's smaller than it and moves. If it can fit in its mouth and it runs away from it, you can bet it'll try to eat it. The strange beast is easily excited by the mention of food and the presence of it, and will not hesitate to gobble up your food if you offer it. It is ravenous as a youngster and seems to constantly be eating food to fuel his rapid growth. It's absolutely incredible how much this neonate eats.

When its growth spurt hits, it will become rather clumsy and unaware of its own size, constantly bumping into things and misjudging distances and how small and fragile other gembound are.


As an adult, Phlegethon is an interesting beast in that it is driven by both instinct and intellect. It is slow, purposeful in its movements and thoughts. Some may consider it to be lazy by nature, but it simply doesn't move without reason. If it doesn't have to be anywhere, it just lounges around and waits. One of its favorite pastimes is sleeping, if that tells you anything. The monster's docility gets broken by its food-oriented mentality and being hungry — it becomes irritable and prone to attacking anything that moves. In these times (and really any times) it is easily manipulated by food and promises of it. Even when it doesn't hunger, it happily accepts food and gobbles it up eagerly, selfishly. Don't expect it to share even scraps of something.

It rather enjoys conversation and the company of others (even if they're silent), despite its looming, intimidating appearance. Due to this, Phlegethon has a strong preference towards not eating greater gembound as long as they prove to be good, benevolent, or simply neutral toward it. It turns a cold shoulder to those who are rude to it and gives violence to those who physically attack it. Phlegethon is unforgiving and never forgets a face, ever. An eye for an eye mentality drives its revenge and it will seek to devour anything that poses a threat to it. If it doesn't destroy it now, it will destroy it later.

Gembound who find themselves in its good graces are welcome to seek shelter within its goopiness or to maybe be offered some food it catches before it swallows it. Don't worry, you'll know it likes you when it shares food with you and offers to protect you.



RP Sample:
The waters ran black with its shadows, its slime and grunge. It was solid, yet not, as it swam lazily, purposefully, toward the shores of Cetus. Through the murky waters of the marsh. There was a primal hunger within paltry blue eyes, as it had yet to truly surface and feed in the past few days. Krill could only be substantial for so long, it considered softly, humming to itself.

It arrived soon upon the shore, nose barely scraping the sandbar. With a miniscule puff of water from its blowhole, it extended its neck, scanning the shoreline. Giving it a once-over. There was plenty of vegetation and lush growth in the reeds. Creatures would come, feeling safe solitude to be an option. Good. Retracting its neck, it settled into the mud, shifting side to side to mimic the appearance of a simple — but murky — stone to perch upon and feed. Perfect. It closed its eyes, waiting, focusing. Focusing on the vibrations surrounding him, the gentle pitter patter of water tumbling up and over the shore in the mire. The scuffle of things far too small to bother hunting.

But, there. A gentle, delicate footstep. 'Cave deer,' its mind murmured, eagerly, greedily. 'Wait.' A gentle reminder, not to snap too soon, but not too late. It was, after all, still inexperienced, still unnamed. New.

The deer scuffled softly into the reeds, leaning down at its right side to take a drink. It snapped open its eyes, briefly taking in the sight of the prey with an ancient sort of glee. As soon as it perceived the shadows of the innocent Lesser, its neck extended toward them, mouth finding the now-squealing creature with ease.

Its mind crowed victoriously, 'food!'

I know I'm inactive now but I'll be back around soon to pick up my characters so I won't let it go inactive if I'm chosen.

Name: Sekith
Gender: Genderless
Personality: As a child, Sekith isn't much more than a bundle of instinct and curiosity. It craves knowledge, although it does not speak much for it. It is selfish, caring only for its survival and its own needs. A basic, lesser creature with no knowledge that there is anything more than simply living and knowing. As if goes through its childhood, it will develop keen interests in certain aspects of life - desire, love, and enjoyment. These three things will begin to shape around it as well, adding onto the basic needs and instincts of its primary self. Once its reached full maturity, it will be a creature reborn. While it is still, to a degree, selfish, it also has the capability to love and make friends. It will desire companionship and affection in its strange, hyperactive way. It doesn't care for approval no does it care if anyone happens to dislike their energetic tendencies. It seems to have a good measure of if someone likes them or not - those that do not are cut from their life.

A sort of greed also begins to form as they grow, the need for material wealth. At first they will collect anything and everything, but their expectations for their collection will begin to rise. They will switch from grabbing everything they can to actively seeking out treasures and oddities to hoard and admire. Their desire for knowledge also grows with this need for wealth - the need for secrets, knowledge, anything that can give them information. They want to know everything about everyone and will do their best to learn whatever they can, whenever they can. If they know that there's something they don't know, they will not rest until they have uncovered that secret.

And, finally, throughout their whole life, they will display a distinct hyperactivity. Unable to sit still, unable to pay attention or listen, always jumping from one thing to the next. Their thirst for knowledge is the only thing that can hold them still sometimes - if its interesting enough, they can listen and hold themselves, but its not always easy even then. Any distraction could pull them away. Only when its primal instincts kick in can it go on a one-track mind, but as it matures, this becomes less and less frequent.

Rp sample: Sekith soared through the air, its head turned down strangely to observe the ground below. It was getting impatient now - it had been searching around for something shiny and pretty for far too long. There were other things to do and it was getting hungry. Its stomach rumbled at the thought and it was about to turn around and abandon this mission when something caught its eye. It stopped its flight and gazed down, trying to pinpoint the location. Something was glittering in the rocks, reflecting off the light of the lanterns. It lowered itself to get a better look and felt a trill of glee go through its body.

It angled itself so that it was heading towards this shiny thing and landed gracefully on the stones before the treasure. It was a crystal, wedged in a crevice, cut perfectly and beautifully. Sekith gasped with awe as it reached forward to take it from its spot. This would be the perfect addition! How beautiful, how perfect...

"Hey, what do you thing you're doing?"

Sekith flinched and whipped around, scattering bits of ooze across the boulders. Behind it was a zebra, its whole body tense and its eyes furrowed with anger. "Get away from that, its mine!"

The hybrid stared for a moment, sizing up the zebra. Obviously it didn't like it. For whatever reason. It was just trying to take the gem! It frowned and moved so that it was on top of the crystal. "I found it first!"

The zebra lashed its tail and stepped forward. "No, it's mine! It's important to me! Get away from it or I'll make you get away!"

Interest sparked in Sekith's mind. What was so important about this gemstone? It realized that, perhaps, it was wedged in the crevice as a hiding spot. Not a very good one, if it was being honest, but a hiding spot nonetheless. It narrowed its eyes and hopped away silently, letting the zebra step forward and take it.

It watched carefully as the zebra nudged another stone on top of the gem, obviously to protect any other flying creatures from trying to take it. But Sekith didn't care about that. "Why is that gemstone so important to you?"

The zebra paused before looking back with a deep frown. "I don't think that's any of your business."

Anger burned at the edges of Sekith's mind and impatience to learn this banged at the inside of its skull. "Aw, come on, why don't you tell me?" It jumped into a rock, tail whipping around uncontrollably, scattering black slime everywhere. "I won't bother you anymore if you tell me!"

The zebra scowled and stepped back, dodging the flying ooze. "Obnoxious kid. It's the gem of my mate! Now will you leave me alone?!"

The news that the crystal was a dead creature didn't strike Sekith too harshly. In fact, it didn't seem fazed by it at all. Instead, it just gave the zebra a winning smile (or, at least, as much a smile as it could). "That's cool! Thanks for telling me!"

Satisfied with this knowledge, at least, Sekith opened its wings and leaped into the air. It was getting hungry now. It hadn't gotten a new treasure, but it had gotten a little tidbit of information and that would probably be enough for now.
