The Whispering South Wind

[ShimmerMoonStar]

Welcome to the land of the North! Many animals live in this wilderness: foxes, bears, mountain lions, wolves, various types of rodents and birds and others. They all inhabit and live in peace amongst each other, even prides, clans, and packs. However, the North has changed over the past few months and many birds have come with messages from the south. These messages include various threats that the Northern animals can not understand, maybe because the birds that replay these messages don't quite understand themselves. There are many rumors that something terrible will happen to the North and the wilderness that creates various homes for the animals living there, but the animals here think it is just a rumor. Could it be true? Could some odd force really be coming to destroy their homes?

You can play as any of the following animals:

-Foxes
-Bears
-Wolves
-Coyotes
-Mountain lions
-Rodents (Ex: mice, rats, raccoons, squirrels, etc.)
-Birds

There are usually smaller groups of animals, but larger ones can be formed.

Name: Pete
Species: Raccoon
Gender: Male
Age: 2.5 years(Raccoons in the wild live to be 3, so old for him)
Mate: None
Rank: Loner
Personality: Old and very grouchy
Background: During his life, he has lived in one tree in particular and is very territorial over his tree. There's only one animal alive that he doesn't mind and that's a lone wolf by the name of Ocean and that's because one day there was a storm and he was knocked out of his tree, causing him to break his leg.  Ocean came by and instead of killing him, helped him until he could climb back up safely.

Name: Leauana
Species: Wolf
Gender: Female
Age: 3 years
Mate: N/A - Subject to change
Rank: Loner - Unless a pack is formed
Personality: Alue is a rather sweet wolf who likes to help those in need, because of her past her social behaviour, friends, and actions isn't as great as they should be. However, she is very curious and at times quite intelligent, she has picked a lot of things up and is on track with the usual behaviour of a wolf. Despite her usual caring nature she can have a mean side like most creatures. At times she will be sarcastic and maybe feisty, as well as slightly stubborn and strict. However, her pure aggressive and arrogant side is only shown when she is provoked or angered. She can be pretty tolerant at that. When you get too know her she is very loyal and protective, and towards males she is quite the flirt. Adventurous and brave would also describe Lea.
Background: Leas mother lived with her up until the age of three months. One day her mother, Ailani went out hunting and returned with severe wounds, knowing her fate her mother adopted her out too one of the more well known wolves of the area. Being young as Leauana grew she got the impression that Rune was her mother. But her life didn't go up from there. Rune wouldn't allow Lea out of the den ever; not to play, explore and nor did she learn her to hunt. The only time she was allowed out was when she went for a drink at the closest river possible. Rune would tell the pup lies about the wilderness and keep her confined, often punishing her if she stepped one paw outside.

At the age of one and a half the white pup ran away when Rune was asleep after finding out that she had been adopted. Being completely new to her surrounding she was completely unsure on what too do once she got far enough away from the creature whom use to beat her. A year or so passed and Leauana was very familiar with her surroundings and decided to go back. All that remained in the den was a rotten corpse of the wolf. Feeling no sympathy, since Rune had put her through a year of what could be classed as suffering, she left in order to start up her new life, away from the place which she once called home. Another year and a half later she has managed to survive and has been successful in learning the ways of the wolf.
Other:
~ Has a small scar on her left leg off Rune
~ Doesn't live in a specific area

Name: Ravana
Species: Mountain Lion
Gender: Female
Age: 4 years
Mate: N/A - Maybe it'll change
Rank: Loner
Personality: Ravana is a rather bitter soul, she rarely cares for another well being and only strives to keep herself alive. Towards others she can be rather aggressive and snappy, as well as quite ignorant and intimidating. She will put in a comment when not needed and she'll often say things when it's not wanted or which can offend another. She can be sarcastic and often teases others. Despite her rather horrible side she can be rather kind. Towards males she will be flirtatious and hard to get, if someone is in danger she may take it upon herself to help. Ravana does have a soft spot for younger creatures which can often calm her down. It takes some time getting too know her but when you do she's loyal and protective.
Background: Her background has been rather simple compared too other possibilities of it being worse. Through the majority of her life she lived with her mother and often visited her father who lived not to far away from where she was located. Her bitter side was shown once she watched her father being brutally murdered by a bear whilst trying to protect her and her mother. A few days later she then witnessed her mother being taken from her by a group of hunters. Rav was left alone and vulnerable at the age of 10 months. Which meant she'd be fending for herself for the rest of her life.

As she grew up she was attacked several times by other species and even her own. Being pushed away by several others this caused her to become slightly bitter and of course hurt. Classing herself as the outcast she rarely spoke to another unless it was to taunt them or flirt with one of the males. Many would class her as a ' 'psychopath' or the cat equivalent to 'Chupadogra'. However, despite her personality and her past, Rava seems to be growing soft as she gets older.
Other:
~ Slow changes in personality
~ Several scars on her body

accepted I'll start it off!

[ShimmerMoonStar]

The wind was beginning to settle down after a rather blustery day. The branches of several trees were beginning to calm themselves, and a head poked itself out of a nearby bush. A small wolf pushed herself out of the bush and instantly stuck her nose in the air to get a better feel for what was going on after the wind storm. There wasn't too many scents, besides the rank scent of the raccoon, Pete, who lived above the bush she found sanction to. She walked closer to the tree and jumped up a bit and placed her front paws on the tree, letting out a small bark, "Pete?"

She repeated the name again, though there was no reply and she gave up, figuring the coon was sleep. Old animals, I swear... They sleep through anything. She rolled her eyes and perked her ears, listening for the sound of the river as she headed that way, the thought of food on her mind, though she wasn't sure what would be there after the small typhoon.

Leauana
"The greatest pleasure in life is doing what people say you cannot do."

Laying quiet in the cover of a small pile of rocks the white pelted canine lifted her ears as she listened to the sounds of her surroundings. Everything now seemed rather quiet, the only sound being that of the birds which had now begun to tweet. The storm must have quietened down. Allowing her eyes too shoot open the large canine glanced around, the trees had stopped swaying and debris stopped flying through the air. Hurling herself to her paws she stepped out of the rock pile and looked as the rest of the forest was revealed. A soft smile lit up the wolfs face as she spun in a quick circle, then stopping and doing it once again. The storm had been going for a few hours, with heavy winds and rain this prevented her from wondering around - unless she wanted too be swept off her paws or soaked by the pelting drops of rain. Giving her fur a light shake to rid it of twigs and other debris that had gotten tangled in her pelt, the bottoms of her paws were a slightly darker shade from the mud where she had been treading on. Giving her paws a gentle shake Lea then whirled around once again, allowing herself to get use to the light and the different atmosphere which had been created since the storm. Now feeling quite relaxed Leauana decided now would be an exceptional time to set off on what she would call a journey, even though she wouldn't venture far from the areas she knew.

Taking a few quick bounds forward and a small leap the long legged canine slowed her pace down into a light trot, with each long step mud flicked up from beneath her paws - tail swaying in delight as she was now able to continue on her small, short journey through the now familiar forest. Despite her somewhat rough past she was managing to get on just fine. Alue was yet to make any friends she now knew her way around the forest quite well, which she considered a good thing. As she clambered through the forest she would leapt or a rock or a fallen log now and then. Which was rather fun for her, since she needed to find ways to amuse herself since she was unfamiliar with most creatures around her. Running her tongue across her lips she decided that one she had done some exploring she would go for a drink and possibly a hunt, she hadn't eaten in a few hours so she needed something soon. When hunting it wouldn't be anything large, possibly a few rabbits or even a small deer if she was given the chance, she even had the possibility of going fishing - it all depended on what tickled her fancy when finishing her adventure.

Ravana
"Better to rule in Hell than serve in Heaven."

Ravana had remained on the ledge which lay just outside her cave. She had been watching the storm from afar, only a small breeze passed her way. Thrashing her tail in all directions Rav watched several animals scurrying down below the mountains, a grin seemed to cast an evil expression across her face. Unsheathed her claws she scraped them across the stone texture, causing an irritable screech to echo through a small distance of the land. A smug look crossed her face as she slowly lifted herself to her paws, tail continuing to sway as she slowly crept across the rocks which covered the side of the mountain, allowing her to make this an ideal place to live, which suited her perfectly. Clambering her way down the cliff side the dark marked feline allowed her eyes to dart around, watching her surroundings carefully, in case anything or anyone was trying to intrude on the area which she claimed as her own. As she made her way down her eyes rested on a small, probably young Coyote whom had foolishly wondered onto her territory. Narrowing her eyes the large she cat parted her square shaped jowls and let out an echoing roar. The loud sound startled the smaller creature causing it to dart off, tripping over its own paws in the process. Quietly snarling she watched as the canine clambered off into the distance at a clumsy trot. Shaking her head she continued on her way, later on she would need to make scent markers once again.

After a short time of around five minutes the lioness was out of the familiar area known as her territory and was now exposed too the open forested land. Lowering her head a little the 'evil' feline averted her gaze around her surroundings now and then, but nothing really caught her attention. Letting out a cold sigh Ravana sent out cold glances when she passed a creature, which would cause them to slightly cower, but this only caused her to smirk. When arriving at the river side she was greeted by a small deer and its fawn, looking at them she wasn't really bothered. Having a soft spot for youngins meant she was less likely to attack this duo. Showing no signs of hostility she just simply lowered into a crouching position and allowed her tongue to slide out of her mouth, slowly and quietly she lapped up the water from the pool, now and then lifting her eyes and sometimes her head too see the bank or too see around her.

Accepted, and jump right in

Ocean

The small wolf continued her steady walk in the direction of the river, though her fur began to rise as she caught the rank scent of a familiar, yet deadly animal. Dangit... I hate going this way... Maybe he'll be sleep from the storm... A bear by the name of Eli occupied a small portion near the river, using it to catch fish and fatten up. Ocean had only seen the giant from afar one time: his large claws digging into a newly caught bass, large teeth dripping with drool, and deadly malignant eyes. Ocean shivered at the resurfacing memory and quickened her pace past Eli's territory as she made it to a more desolate area. She sighed as the rank scent evaporated from her nose, and relief filled her, as she began to relax. Further down stream, she could spot the outlines of a feline of some sort making it to the river, though Ocean didn't need to go in that direction, nor would she want to. She simply sniffed around for the small bodys of prey, though instead of finding that she found the musky scent of fish. Her mouth began to drool and her stomach began to growl, not having much of a meal since the day prior. She walked towards the fishy smell and saw with her luck three rather large fish outlines under a few fallen leaves.

Stalking closer, her front paws moving slow and her back paws following, she made it to weakly buried fish and slowly and quietly uncovered them. She didn't need them all, especially since she knew someone left them there and probably for later. Instead of taking all three, she took a whole one and half of another and began to move back off for the tree she knew best, Pete's tree. Her pace quickened as she began to run, not looking back, especially as the rank scent of Eli wreathed around her, and stronger then usual.
