Welcome to Gaia! ::

Aurora
Nick Names: Rory
Age: Teen (Older Teen, since I accedently drew it that way...)
Species: StarMaker
Favorite Music: Hendrix, classic rock, jazzy things
Likes: Peanut butter, Ladybugs, coloring, listing to Chris hum/sing, Ice Cream, Cookies, Sushi, playing base guitar and the violin, running, gym
Skill: Super Speed
Bio: Now that Aurora has hatched, she is curious and accepting of other people, even if they look terrifying. After all, her Mama looks different from others that she's seen on the streets. But everyone else at the Daycare Center looks different too. So, she has accepted this as a way of being.
She is greatly shy of people she's never met, especially of adults and doesn't speak much when around them. Though she's polite as she can be, as her Mama taught her to be. She's, so far, not met one she doesn't like.
Rory seems to be resistant to most things that would cause others harm, like sharp objects and she's got a high tolerance for heat. She also doesn't like heights, and is teased for being short (At least, in Chris's eyes).

As a child, Rory is learning new things about herself. For a very long time, she felt she had nothing special about her, like her other friends. Wisp could paint and make colors appear; Chris has his super strength and could sing; Casia could sing beautifully. So, she felt over shadowed by these skills.
But growing showed that things had changed, and not just in her size. Rory developed a running speed that is faster than others. So fast it startles her and she winds up falling on her face. Her gym teacher suggested she get an earring, much like Chris’, that would lower her running so that she could control it better. Controlling her running is something she wants to do right now.
Ze’zee has ideas too, now that her little girl is old enough. With all the musical instruments around, she wants the girl to learn how to play one of them. If Rory can’t sing with her voice, then Ze intends for her to learn how to make an instrument sing for her. First it was the violin, and now that she and her friends have a little band, she plays the base guitar.

As a teenager, things are getting more complicated, especially between her and Chris. The shyness she once had as a baby is gone, therefore, she is most willing to meet anyone, or talk to them. If there is something wrong, she likes to try and help them out (even if she’s not good at it).
While on a trip to Zard, she met other, full blood Starmakers, Seren and Acheron of the Hellspawn band. It taught her many things of what she is, and what she might could expect in the future, including how long she’d live: a –very- long time. Which, in a way, somewhat started some… problems… with Chris. Something she is working on.
But on the bright side, she now has a baby sister that she has to show and let everyone meet.

Ze’zee
Species: Zardian
Eye Color: Gold
Physical Features: Scales/plates that are deep green on the back and cream-yellow on the front and under side of her tail. She had a crest of sorts of her fore head – a large cream plate that goes back with her skull. Smaller plates on her elbows and knees that are rounded, and not sharp.
Likes: music, shopping, movies
Music: classical, classic rock, jazz and blues
Personality: Ze’zee is an easy going person. Normally, she is a nice person and greets people easily. Only after she talks for a while will she begin to open up and her more wild, carefree side will show it’s self (she was known to get up on tables and sing – even when sober).
History: Her parents are famous musicians back on her home world of Zard. Thus she grew up on music and making it. As it turned out, she was good, really good, at what she did as a child, and even better as an adult. At least she likes what she does, unlike others who tend to hate it.
Other than the intense music classes, Ze grew up a normal life full of school and friends, going out places and shopping. Her best friend, as time went, was also her first crush. Not that she ever told him.
After he decided that, well, he wasn’t comfortable in his skin and did the thing he always wanted to do – be a girl, Ze’s heart was broken. Oh, sure, she still loved her friend, but only as a friend. She wanted a male mate, so that she could have children of their own. After this happened, she decided she needed to get away from things on Zard. That’s why she came to Gaia.
On Gaia, she learned of the multiple types of children she could adopt and chose a cabbage. Now, this cabbage could have had her DNA in it, but she decided not to do that. Every child needs a parent, after all.

Gifts!

working on getting some!

Contained in this post is all the information you need to know in order to grow your child from one stage to the next. There are three main types of requirements.

Solo Entry » Any story or diary entry written by you alone. May be a story, or "Dear Diary" format. 400+ words.
Closed Roleplay » A roleplay between you and one or two other people, conducted privately. 1000+ words
Open Roleplay » A roleplay which is open for anyone to join, or a private roleplay involving four or more people. There is no length requirement for Open RPs, but you must personally write at least 500 words and post at least three times. (This is to prevent anyone from making a single post in an Open RP just to try and get growth credit.)


All growth requirements are flexible. If you prefer one type of roleplay over another, you can exchange requirements at the following rate:

4 Solo Entries » 2 Closed RPs » 1 Open RPs

Stage One » The Cabbage
Requirements » 2 diary posts of any type (diary entry, solo story, or joint roleplay)
All children begin as cabbages, but roleplaying the cabbage stage is optional. At least one of your posts must be:

A » Caring for the cabbage plant,
B » Making the decision to adopt an infant, and/or
C » Introducing your primary guardian character(s)
[X X]

Stage Two » The Baby
Requirements » 1 Closed or Open RP, 4 Solo Entries

Once you have reached Youth, you have a choice as to how to proceed.

Option One » Young Adult
Requirements » 2 Open RPs, 4 Closed RPs, 9 Solo Entries
With this option, your Youth art becomes your official Adult image. Your character is "officially" a twentysomething adult.

Option Two » Full Adult
Requirements » 8 Open RPs, 14 Closed RPs, 24 Solo Entries
With this option, you receive a new piece of official art for the Adult stage. This could indicate a final character age of 25+, meaning a character in their thirties, forties, or older is possible.
