North

[/font]
------
6.5 years • Male • Canine • Flat-Coated Retriever • Lexis • Rank
------[/center]

PERSONALITY |

[/font]

Strong-willed and confident, just one look at North tells you he is a proud animal. Although a basic example of his breed, he finds himself to be quite a looker, but is in no way conceited about his appearance. He doesnt gush about, or really even mention his looks, but his confidence shows he's very comforable in his own skin.

Being confined to a ship for most of his life taught him to be extremely passionate about what interests he had, and so, when he finds something he likes, he can become a little obsessed. This has come to define North in a way. When he was young his master often spoke of pirates. Pirates, over time, became an interest of North's and soon a passion and a dream. These days, he talks using 'pirate' words and spends a lot of his time planning out his future as a world famous pirate.

Although confident and actually somewhat social, North doesnt communicate well with others all the time and can be a little snappy. He tends to go on little spurts of talking loudly to himself; yet another side effect of his life at sea. This is a little off-putting to some, but North doesnt really seem to notice or care.

• likes | Water, Boats/Ships, and Pirates.
• dislikes | Sea gulls, rats, and stowaways.
• goals | To be a world-renowned pirate and to eventually join the Tempest pack.

APPEARANCE |[/font]

Medium in height and on the leaner side, North is a very classic example of his breed. Although lean, he is by no means too thin, simply well conditioned. His medium length coat is a uniform, shiny black and hangs straight down over his body, with more feathering on his chest, legs, and tail. His eyes are brown with a beautiful red tint. His legs are well muscled and strong and end in chunky paws with webbed toes and black nails and paw pads. His rudder-like tail is thick and of average length. His deep muzzle is on the slightly longer side and ends with a shiny nose as black as his coat. His ears are of moderate size and hang beside his face.

• height | 23 inches
• weight | 55 pounds
• fur colour | Black
• eye colour | Brown

HISTORY | [/font]

North was born in Pool's Cove, Canada in the early days of Autumn. Like many puppies, he was sent off with a new family too early to remember his mother and siblings. His earliest memories are much like his more recent: on his master's ship, who he called 'Gold of the North', chasing sea gulls, jumping into the water, and laying in the sun on the ship's deck. His owner was a proud man and a lover of the sea and brought up North to be the same. While not a pirate, his master loved the history and the idea of pirates and over time North came to dream of being a famous pirate himself.

For the most part, North's life was full of leisure, but it had its bad times. When he was only about a year old, North jumped off of the ship and landed in a small school of jellyfish. Thankfully he came away with only a couple of un-problematic stings. Although this caused him to take a hatred and fear of the creatures with him through life, it didnt affect his overwhelming love of water and the sea.

Occasionally things went wrong on the ship. Stowaways and rats among them. They never caused too many problems in the long run, but they annoyed North. Even more-so because they annoyed his master.

For the first couple years of his life, North spent very little time around anyone other than his master. Because of this, they had an amazingly strong bond, making losing him even harder on North, but it also made him less tolerant of others and also affected his ability to communicate with others at times. Somehow, he has a natural talent at getting girls' attention.

When he lost his master, they had been docked and so North was easily able to leave the ship and care for himself. Even so, he spends a lot of his time on his ship, renamed 'Pool's Cove' after the last trace of her former name wore away, dreaming of the day he can sail away again. His master had long since been given a burial at sea, as he would have wanted.

• season born | Autumn

Bancroft

[/font]
------
8 years • Male • Feline • British Shorthair • Iris • Spy
------[/center]

PERSONALITY |

[/font]

A cat of what he considers 'high class', Bancroft makes a point to show and encourage politeness. He is very annoyed by rude animals and is quick to let them know about it. He is quick to judge and tends to hold grudges, so if he is shown rudeness early on, that may be the end of any friendship or cooperation that could have been. He also puts a lot of emphasis on punctuality, being on time for anything that requires his attention, and expects others to do the same.

Despite being part of the Iris Pride, Bancroft isnt fond of big cats. He finds them egotistical, dominating, and rude and just generally dislikes their company. He has a particular dislike of tigers, leading also to a dislike of stripes. For the sake of his species and himself, he keeps this opinion to himself.

Despite his negative attributes, Bancroft is tender when it comes to young cats, often helping them and guiding them along, and hopes to be a father one day. Part of this stems from a natural affinity for the youngsters, but also from a desire to make an impression on the world. Bancroft fears that when he dies he will be forgotten, having failed to leave his mark behind. He feels having children, or even just young cats who he helped to become who they will be, will keep this from happening.

• likes | Gambling/risk taking, politeness, and taking young cats 'under his wing'.
• dislikes | Rudeness, big cats, and stripes.
• goals | To be a father.
• fears | Not being remembered after he dies.
• strengths | Stealthy, clever, and punctual.
• weaknesses | Not very fast, quick to judge others, and holds grudges.
• mental disorders | None

APPEARANCE |[/font]

Bancroft is of fairly average height for a cat, but like many of his breed, is a bit short considering his weight. leaving him somewhat chubby. His legs are thick and appear shorter than most cats'. His tail is average length and thickly furred, usually carried low. His head is large and round, topped with well furred, smaller than average sized ears.

His coat, not short, but not long, is thick and plushy. His color all over is a solid, even blue-grey. Neither light, nor very dark. His large, round eyes are a bright orange, similar to that of a pumpkin. His face is usually punctuated by a wide, happy expression, a 'Cheshire Cat Smile' so to speak, as is common of his breed.

• height | 10 inches
• weight | 17lbs
• fur colour | Blue
• eye colour | Orange
• scars | None
• noticeable features | His mild British accent.
• physical disorders | None

HISTORY | [/font]

Born in Great Britain, Bancroft and his human family moved to Hexasol when he was quite young. Although he remembers the move itself, he remembers nothing of the country in which he was given life. His family had consisted of a man and woman and he loved them dearly. They were a higher class household than most and Bancroft grew up putting lots of emphasis on proper behavior. None the less, he had a taste for gambling early on and often left home at night to go seek the alley cats who shared this fondness, even though they were often distasteful and unpleasant company.

Bancroft had been away from home when he first heard of the humans dying and quickly made up his mind not to go back. He knew there was nothing he could do to save his family, so he decided to save himself at least a little heartbreak.

Since that time, Bancroft has chosen to side with the Iris Pride in 'The War of Species'.

• season born | Summer
• place of birth | Somewhere in Great Britain
• family | None
• memorable events | Moving to Hexasol and joining the Iris Pride.

Jezebel

[/font]
------
4 years • Female • Canine • Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever • Loner
------[/center]

PERSONALITY |

[/font]

When you look at Jezebel you see a fun, lively, happy-go-lucky girl, always full of life and always on the move, doing something. She is so pure in this image that you'd never believe that it was fake and that she was using it to cover up a very sad past. In fact, she herself wouldn't believe it. The optimism that fills her days came about after an incident which ended with her having selective memory loss, forgetting all the bad things that had happened to her family and herself. Although she doesn't realize it, her entire personality is simply a coping mechanism to maintain this memory loss and keep those dark thoughts at bay.

Jezebel loves the company of others and enjoys nice conversations with anyone who will join in, but tends to trail off and jump from one subject to the other. This is a trait of hers not only in conversation, but in life in general. She never sticks to one thing for very long, always jumping from one activity to another, subconsciously trying to keep her mind going and far away from any less than pleasant subjects. Because of her constant need for activity, Jezebel has gained an amazing amount of stamina, being able to run, jump, and whatever else for what seems like forever. Unfortunately, stamina does not equal agility; her lack of focus tends to cause falls, collisions, and other such incidents. One of Jezzie's favorite activities is swimming, but, although she excels at it, she tends to avoid water to to a horrible fear of fish that has been with her for as long as she can remember.

• likes | Playing rough, swimming, running, and most other things that tire her out.
• dislikes | Not being busy and cold weather.
• goals | Meet lots of friends
• fears | Fish
• strengths | Lots of stamina, excellent swimmer, and optimistic.
• weaknesses | Impaired hearing, doesn't watch where she is going, and unfocused.
• mental disorders | Selective Memory Loss

APPEARANCE |[/font]

A smaller-medium sized dog, Jezebel is about 18 inches tall and a muscular 40 pounds. While she is very fit, you can not really tell because of all her fur. She has slight feathering which is longer on her tail. Her ears are somewhat large and droop over in way that lends to her happy expression. Her legs are average length and very strong.

Jezebel's fur is a medium, rusty orange color all over with the exception of her whitespotting. She has white on all 4 paws, going up just barely past her toes and a splash of white on her chest. Her eyes are a lovely amber color, blending in with the color of her fur. Her nose and eye rims are pink in color.

Jezebel has a scar about 2 inches long in front of her left ear. While a decent sized scar, her fur and ear tend to hide it most of the time.

• height | 18 inches
• weight | 40 lbs
• fur colour | Red and White
• eye colour | Amber
• scars | One in front of left ear
• noticeable features | Scar on head
• physical disorders | Slight hearing loss in left ear

HISTORY | [/font]

Jezebel was born part of a litter of 2 brothers and 2 sisters to loving parents. As a family they spent a lot of their time traveling and life was good for Jezebel. Unfortunately, her family was attacked by a small pride of felines when Jezzie was about 6 months old. Her parents apparently owed this cats a debt and they were tired of waiting for it. Both of Jezzie's parents were killed and her and her siblings were all separated, with the cats having plans of turning them into slaves.

Jezebel remained there for many more months. She began to see the cats getting comfortable that she wouldn't attempt escape and only then did she start planning for freedom. When she was about a year old she finally made her move, darting away while her keeper was distracted. She would have ran for as far as her legs would take her, but in mid-run she stumbled over the edge of a dried up river bank, landing with a sharp thud on the rocks below, hitting her head.

Upon awaking, Jezebel had no clue where she was or how she had gotten there. She remembered her parents and her siblings traveling the country side, but could not for the life of her remember where any of

Calvin

[/font]
------
Less than 1 year • Male • Kitty • Bobcat x Caracal • Loner
------[/center]

PERSONALITY |

[/font]

Calvin could easily be described as a loner or anti-social by those who do not know him well. In fact, even his family might venture to describe him as such. In reality, he just simply does not like those he is usually around, which is mostly just his family. He finds his entire family horribly irritating and tends to go out of his way to return the "favor". One of his first favors was the changing of his name. He was given the name 'Keary' when he was born, but a couple months later proclaimed himself 'Calvin' and now refuses to answer to his previous name with anything other than a simple 'That's not my name.'. Although he tends to be feisty, Calvin has a lot of patience and has a lot of control over his temper. When he gets aggravated, he usually just climbs up whatever tree is nearby and dreams of other things. He doesn't want to be a loner his entire life. He actually hopes he can one day be a part of the Iris Pride. Whether this is actually from desire to fight for his species or simply to spite his father remains to be seen..

• likes | Having time to think, alone time now and then, climbing trees.
• dislikes | His family(most of the time) and water.
• goals | To find somewhere he fits in.
• fears | Wasting his life.
• strengths | Great climber, patient, and holds his temper well.
• weaknesses | Gets sick easily, poor sense of smell, and holds grudges.
• mental disorders | None

APPEARANCE |[/font]

Calvin is a bit thick for his height, but isn't exactly fat. He has built up a lot of muscle from climbing up trees all the time, but lays around enough that he does have a good bit of chub to him. His coloring is a rusty orange-ish brown, with a lighter underbelly and a layer of spots. His spots are from his mother's side of the family, as are many of his features, but they are very dark for the species. They are expected to fade some as he ages, but will likely always remain very visible. His large ears are tipped with small tuffs of fur. His tail is about half the length of a 'normal' tail and is usually carried low.

• height | 24 inches
• weight | 38 lbs
• fur colour | Brown and White
• eye colour | Brown
