Left Wanting // mato.pe link

dream here!

__________________________________________________________

Personality

Left Wanting chooses to live by the moral of her naming dream -- which is that it's always best to give not quite enough than it is too much. She wants other kin to dream of her, instead of getting too comfortable. She wants to give them just a taste of her calm, and of her singing, before fading away -- so that they will wonder what else there is behind that strange, ghostly appearance, and her lilting manner of speech. It works well, for a bard who writes her own songs and performs them from one end of the swamp to another...

Outlander // mato.pe link

dream here!

__________________________________________________________

Personality

Outlander rarely speaks, because he doesn't see much use in doing so: his time better spent hunting and bringing back his kills, or doing careful patrols of the small part of swamp he has marked out as his own. Here, he explores what he can of the natural world, taking pets and familiars and, occasionally, kin who have passed away, apart to see what makes them tick. He behaves as someone who doesn't quite understand who he is, or why he's here, or maybe like he wants to know why all kin are...

Water Like a Stone // mato.pe link

His entry point lost: he pounds against the ice that traps him below the water's surface, but even his strongest, most frantic attempts can't cause so much as a crack.

__________________________________________________________

Personality

In contrast to his dream, Water Like a Stone is the very image of welcoming warmth -- happiest in the heart of a crowd of kin, burly and bold, all broad smiles and booming voice. He likes parties, large gatherings full of loud kin, rarely striking out on his own, and is more than willing to open hi sown home to bring them in. He loves food, but especially loves the fermented grape juice that some kin make, and even dabbles in making some himself. It is dangerously strong.

Suncup // mato.pe link

dream here!

__________________________________________________________

Personality

The early bird catches the worm, and so Suncup is up at the crack of dawn: her day planned out carefully in such a way that she will end it with everything she needs. She will not, exactly, step on the backs of other kin to take what she wants, but she will happily lie and play dumb if it means throwing someone off track. of her prize. Most of her talent lies in gathering and growing, a small garden of hearty plants that aren't particularly pretty -- and many of which have been stolen [just clippings, seeds, fruits] from neighbors...

Ankle // mato.pe link

dream here!

__________________________________________________________

Personality

Ankle is a fragile creature prone to injuries; a doe with two left feet and a tendency to find herself in need of a rescue. If she were a more forceful doe -- more focused on self-sufficciency, on being in control of her life -- then perhaps it would be a problem. But Ankle is also more than willing to just let the flow sweep her along, and any other kin to lead her wherever they might go.

Slither // mato.pe link

She is the thing in the dark that slithers, cool and wet and unknown, across your leg.

__________________________________________________________

Personality

Slither's first [and last] priority in her life is herself. She is the only kin that matters to her, and likely will always be so. Her life centers around the sole task of of taking care of herself, by whatever means are necessary. This means she's more than willing to take advantage of any kin that crosses her path, without hesitation or concern.

No One // mato.pe link

dream here!

__________________________________________________________

Personality

No one is a bit of an Eeyore: only happy, in his way, when he's unhappy, always seeing the worst in every situation, frowing in the face of optimism. He is a kin who believes everyone else is doing it wrong, and who is more than happy to tell kin about it. Not that he thinks he's right or anything, no, he's also terrible and no one likes him and no one should waste their time on him and he's no one's friend...

No Tomorrow // mato.pe link

dream here!

__________________________________________________________

Personality

No Tomorrow is excited about every little thing in every day of her life -- is always trying to make the most of everything around her. If there's an opportunity placed in her path, No Tomorrow will take it, enthusiastically. It's not that she's afraid the opportunities will fade, it's not about the transience of today. It's simply the fact that everything is worth doing. And she loves trying new things.

Split Skin // mato.pe link

It starts as a pressure, an ache.
It grows and his jaw starts to throb; he thrashes at night, groaning low as he struggles to sleep.
When finally fresh bone breaks through, the sharp pain of split skin fades into relief.
He gnashes his new teeth together contentedly.

__________________________________________________________

Personality

The simple fact of the matter is that Split Skin doesn't know how to interact with other kin. Somehow, everything he says comes out wrong; every gesture he makes is improper, or just faintly disturbing. He weirds kin out, stumbles over the words required to make himself understood, and in the end he leaves the impression of a creeper, that something's happening under the surface, of secret meanings...

Merry Chase // mato.pe link

dream here!

__________________________________________________________

Personality

Merry Chase is a kin looking for a challenge -- something difficult, that she can explore in a new way, someone confusing on unusual, a new berry. She wants excitement but, even young as she is, sometimes she feels like there's none left to be had. So she makes her own fun, in whatever form she can, creating new games and constantly placing goals in front of herself until she completes them.

Sickness // mato.pe link

dream here!

__________________________________________________________

Personality

Sickness is a healer, who works to drive away the worst injuries of kin, both in the body and in the mind. Her goal is to ease pain and, usually, this means a physical easing, driving away aches with poultices and driving away infection. Sometimes, though, this means something else altogether: listening to problems and giving what advice she can.

Milk and Honey // mato.pe link

dream here!

__________________________________________________________

Personality

Milk and Honey was born to be nothing so much as a mother. She is wide-eyed and inexpert at most things, but she makes up for this with her endless willingness to try and try again. Perhaps there is a naivete behind her actions that, now and then, makes other people cringe out of worry for her, certain that someone will take advantage and someday she'll get herself in serious trouble. At the same time, though, she's too sweet for anyone to really step on...

Fog // mato.pe link

dream here!

__________________________________________________________

Personality

Fog is a kind, simple buck who -- unfortunately -- looks like just a bit of a monster. He wants to befriend everyone he meets, is always one to help in a crisis, dependable and hardworking. Unfortunately, all it takes is a glance for other kin to dismiss him as creepy. He is a loner despite his desire to be surrounded by friends, simply because so few will have him.

Ragged Cry // mato.pe link

dream here!

__________________________________________________________

Personality

Spend ten minutes in Ragged Cry's company and kin will find themselves exhausted, just from the sheer force of his personality, his unending blabber. He tells a mean story, and he has a hundred of them, of varying degrees of fantastic and unbelievable. Some of them are true, of course: a good half of them. The problem is that they're so thoroughly mixed in with lies, with bullshit, that it's impossible to tell which is which. And, of course, there's no way to get a word in there, to ask any clarifying questions...
