SUMMONED TOTEM:

• Name: Melidora
  
• Nicknames: Meli
  
• Gender: Male
  
• Age: Appears about nine or ten
  
• Species: Fey
  
• Totem: Kingfisher
  
• Hair: Brown, short, and downy -- like feathers
  
• Eyes: China blue
  
• Skintone: slightly tanned
  
• Markings: indigo fey markings around his eyes and on his upper legs
  
• Noteable Features: tiny wings protruding from either side of his head and a feathered bird's tail.
  
  
• Alliance: Moon Court
  
• Role: bard-in-training/budding poet
  
• Parents: Vates (bard) and Fidicina (harpist)
  
• Other Family: Astra (younger sister)
  
• Marital Status: N/A
  
• Children: N/A
  
  
• Favorite Colors: black, deep red, jade, silver
  
• Favorite Foods: Fish and tomatos
  
• Favorite Sounds: the wind moaning through the trees in the dead of the night, his own music
  
• Favorite Weather: thunderstorms and foggy overcast days
  
• Favorite Possession: the turqoise headpiece he's nearly always wearing. It was a gift to him from his mother, shortly before the curse befell him.
  
  
• Likes: writing, performing, those who enjoy both his writing and performing, people who "get" him, dungeons, walks in the fog, observing the phenomenon of death, observing war and chaos, sitting alone in a dark room in complete silence for long periods of time
  
  
• Dislikes: those who belittle the crafts of writing and performing, direct sunlight, bright and garrish colors (more than necessary for a touch of glitz), being talked down to, being deprived of writing, butterflies (with the exception of red ones), hecklers
  
  
• Personality: Upon first meeting Melidora, he seems like a pleasant sort. Those who have not heard him sing or been presented with his poetry would say that he was a very charming young man who knows his manners -- quite the opposite of his sister. You could even overlook the fact that he's a bit in love with himself.
  
  Beneath that, however, Melidora is what one could call macabre, at best, and addled, at worst. He has an unhealthy obsession with death and all things surrounding it. His songs often favor it as their central subject and, while lovely, have been known to cause such unease in those who listen to them, that they have sometimes sparked violence. This, combined with his sometimes eerily-detached manner, makes him rather unsettling company once you get to know him.
  
  For inspiration, he will often seek out the corpses of animals and insects to study. He has even been known to kill them on occasion to better-observe the death process. Nothing large as he is not much of a hunter, but one should not be surprised to find him at the edge of a river, holding a fish out of the water and watching it wriggle its last.
  
  Meli, like any performer, seeks approval in what he does. On the rare occasion he finds someone who not only can stand to listen to his work without scuttling off after a verse or two, but also seems to enjoy it, he becomes very endeared to that person. A word to the wise -- if you do not want him showing up on your doorstep at odd hours of the night with new songs and prose to share, don't pretend to like his work simply to be polite.

Name: Karma Kitsune
Gender: Female
Species: fox/raccoon anthro
Age: mid-twenties
Hair: black
Eyes: crimson
Height: 5'3
Weight: stare
Sign: Scorpio
Marital Status: Married

Children: Raven Marie, Kendall Farrell, Aislynn Rose (biological)
Arkanti, Saturnidae (adopted)

Occupation: Founder and operator of the Fourth Wall Adoption Agency

Noteable Attributes: the most striking things about Karma are her ringed tail, the black mask over her eyes, and the fact that two miniscule feathered white wings protrude from either side of her head, just under her ears.

Attire: Loose-fitting and comfortable clothing, prefferably in blues, greens, black and purple. Jeans and a T-shirt for casual affairs, kimonos and pants suits for formal ones.


Personality: Generally easygoing and cordial to those she is not well-acquainted with. Karma tends to open up much more around her friends and family, taking up the role of the resident smartass and joker. She usually bends over backwards to help out and please when the opportunity presents itself and is very protective of her loved ones. She very rarely holds a grudge, but when one has torked her off to the point of extreme anger, she is very unforgiving and resentful. This combined with her tendancy to be one of the first people to panic when stress sets in are likely her two biggest character flaws.

Likes: Dave, Pepsi, chocolate, sleeping, writing, spending time with friends and family, video games, rainstorms, getting new artwork, helping someone get something they really want, 'cool' colors, small shiny things, horror novels, sub sammiches

Dislikes: egotists, jerks, paranoid nutbags, the beating of dead horses, hot muggy days, getting up early, Dr. Pepper, internet downtime, video game loadscreens, american cheese, mint ANYTHING, David Bowie shirts, zombies, loud repetitive noise, neon orange


Karma's origins pre-Gaia were rather chaotic. She was a malcontent, not getting along with her parents in the least and somewhat of a shut-in who preferred the internet to actual socialization. Deciding that she was clearly depressed, her parents forcefully enlisted her in a "youth rehabilitation camp". The men that arrived to take her from her home, however, did not have a rehabilitation camp in mind. Instead she was taken to an out-of-the-way tropical island where she was given a series of injections that slowly and painfully transformed her from a human girl into an anthropomorphic raccoon.

While the other test subjects that had been taken prisoner seemed perfectly happy to exist in their newfound society of animal/human hybrids, Karma never adjusted and never stopped wanting to go home. After much trial and error, she managed to escape the island, but returning home presented a problem. She was no longer human -- she no longer fit the norm of society and therefore could not exist in it.

Deciding that she would, instead, try her hand at living as an animal did not work out very well either. While she very much looked the part, she had none of the instincts and her attempts at scenting, hunting, and fishing were abyssmal failures. On one such evening, while attempting to fish after a heavy rainfall, she lost her footing and fell into the river. She was swept under by the current and, shortly afterward, her drowned body was washed ashore.

A passing kitsune spirit happened upon the corpse and took pity on the girl, finding it tragic that she was a child caught between two worlds and being unable to exist in either. Offering its essense, the spirit melded with the fallen body, restoring Karma's life and doing her the mercy of wiping her memory. Along with newfound life, she also gained other things -- pointed fox's ears, a fuller-bodied tail, and a quicker wit.

From there, she was guided by unseen hands to what would be her first encounter with an Earth-To-Gaia portal. Upon passing through it, she found herself in a world that thrived on diversity and didn't so much as bat an eye at her appearance. At first, she was somewhat of a loner and kept to herself, but as time wore on, she began to warm to the idea of meeting new friends.

In a matter of months, she had met her husband, David, and many dear friends such as Youko, Trio, Wasa, Stae, and Luciel. These days, she has built a completely new life for herself and is a wife, mother, and budding business-owner. She still has no recollection of what she left behind and has no desire to go back to it, either.

~ She was the first that I met since being freed other than my Kithain. She seems to greatly and genuinely enjoy my songs and has told me that it has been a long while since last she saw anyone else in the castle. Once I've written some new material, I must find her again.
