HYSTERIA
To be unkind would be to say that the doe never stops talking - but, within the frame of her core beliefs, her talent for conversation is unparalleled. Hysteria can speak to any kin, is adept at sliding into conversations using her natural charm and physical grace: but there's a sort of manic gleam in her eye at all time, and every conversation tends to turn down a dark(er) path. She can steer the conversation towards the impending doom of the swamp without even trying, and then is in her full glory. A doomsayer, through and through.

She gets along with most kin, she's just .. a little weird. A little off. During the course of a conversation it's not uncommon for her to erupt into spontaneous laughter or tears; thankfully, those around her all the time seem to just ignore that odd quirk of personality. Hysteria is not yet physically violent and actually seems to eschew getting close enough to physically touch someone, but that doesn't mean she couldn't be prodded or convinced to if the time were right.

WATER OPAL
Something is shining, down below, in the water. She can barely see it through the ripples the wind makes in the pool, and the spangles that the moonlight sends dancing over its surface, but it's there, and it beckons her. The pool is dark, and she's still young; she's only just begun to wander knee-deep in the river, but nothing has ever taunted her, called to her, like the shining thing on the bottom of the pond.

Seconds later she dives in, streams of bubbles escaping from her nose and mouth and legs paddling strongly. By the time she reaches the bottom her lungs burn and she feels as though she might burst. But the shining stone flickers through the weeds and mud in front of her, reflecting in her eyes.

She surfaces with the shining, scintillating thing in her mouth: a water opal, the same colors as her sodden coat, reflecting the moon in the sky in all its facets.

LIAR BIRD
Can do amazing things with her voice. A master of impersonation, and of throwing her voice.

(It's a lyrebird pun.)
