: : S T O R M : : ~ Hurricane Survival RP (Open and Accepting!)

[rainbow lion]

Near the Mississippi river mouth a F5 hurricane is developing. It's massive clouds can be spotted from hundreds of miles offshore. You as an animal swim in the river or walk on the streets wondering why the humans have began to leave. Wood covered windows appear on every house. You wonder why your owners abandon you. As you roam across the riverside of the Mississippi  you observe strange clouds. Suddenly your hear a roar of wind and rain pours on you.
As you run around seeking shelter some of the houses start to rock. Trees creak under the wind's fury and the waves are bigger than ever. It's either find shelter or die. You may challenge the storm with your tail held high but you will be frightened of it's power.

This is a storm rp where you have to survive a hurricane and live after it. You as an animal have to figure out what works in this situation and what doesn't. Food will be hard to find and this storm will last for two weeks. After those two week you will have to scavenge dead animals or eat what is left of plants. Humans would have either moved without you of tried to wait out the storm. Those who waited would most likely be killed.

You can choose from many animals that native to the area, be a house pet or stray. Or a river animal that drifted down the Mississippi. Even a bird battling the wind and rain on your great wings.

As the otter's powerful tail snaked through the water. Fara had spotted massive clouds earlier and she was trying to seek out a simple shelter to wait out the storm in. A tree overhung the rivver and it had thick leaves. Paddling towards it she figured out a way to get in. Fara was still in the wilderness. The town was still a ways off. She hadn't seen the humans begin to put boards over their windows or leave to escape the hurricane. As she slipped into the tree's branches some of them scratched her side but her fur protected her. A shadow fell across the sky and a light rain began to drizzle over the river. The tree protected her from most of the rain, except the few that made it hrough and dripped onto her.

Breed: German Shepherd/Siberian Husky cross

House Pet or Stray: Stray (Recently caught by animal control and is currently in an animal shelter.)

Crush: Nah.

Mate: Nope

Pups: Nuh uh.

Personality: Grantaire is generally lazy and laid back. He prefers not to fight, and isn't necessarily the sharpest tool in the shed. Though he may not be "book smart" his street smarts are all he needs. He tends to be rather outspoken and cocky, and a bit of a flirt. He takes little seriously, always the first to crack a joke about something. He lacks a verbal filter and ends up blurting out whatever first pops into his mind. He loaths humans and the only time he shows real aggression is when he's confronted by them.

History: Born on the streets, he had to learn to adapt and fend for himself from the start. He spent most of his days stealing food from humans and rummaging in trash cans, until he was nabbed by Animal Control a couple days ago.

((Thanks))

Clawing at the soft ground, Xachi let out a grunt as she nosed through the dirt. It was now after the first hurricane had hit, and the American badger was practically starving. Her black eyes brightened as she spotted a plump worm wriggling in the dirt, and she immediately scooped it into her mouth. Gobbling down the rest of the worm, she felt a little bit better now that something was in her stomach. Glancing around warily, she then began to continue her digging for food.

A little while later, when she was exhausted and her stomach was satisfied, she lumbered over to the nearby river (Mississippi River) and bent down to take a drink. Letting the water soothe her mouth, she retreated from the river and began to scout around for more worms just in case. As she headed towards the soft ground, she let out a grumble as she felt the light patter of rain fall on her fur. Shaking her head, she hurried back to her newly built sett for shelter until the storm had passed. As the sow poked her head in, Xachi scurried deeper into her tunnel till she was at the end. Deciding to get some sleep, she curled up and nestled into the dirt, her body lifting and falling as she slept.
