Name : Lobina
Type : centaur
Gender : female
Orientation : bisexual

Mate : none
Child(ren) : none
Mother : ???, shares a tight bond
Father : ???, estranged
Sibling(s) : four siblings of various age ranges
Familiar : none

Temper : offbeat
Likes : sweet and sour candy, flowers and sunny weather, bright colors, humor, dancing, engaging conversations
Dislikes : rain; arrogance, rudeness, entitlement, stern black-and-white thinking and other forms of assholery
Mannerisms : She likes to braid her hair when she wants to unwind. She has a tendancy to appear distant or even airheaded on first impression, but rest assured she is probably analyzing the situation or her peer(s) before opening up to them. To those in the know, she has a trademark lopsided grin and a witty tongue.
Theme Song : "Blue (da ba dee)," by Eiffel 65

Colorist : Libby Libra
Obtained : random raffle, 11-12 March 2015
Name Significance : 'Lobina' is the surname of Eiffel 65's keyboardist. He helped create the song "Blue," specifically the tune and the hook line, "da ba dee, da ba di."

History :

Lobina struck out on her own at a rather young age. She was born somewhere in the middle of a string of siblings and though she was close to her mother felt like her presence had no significance to the family. With that gut feeling she always felt a stronger than typical need to find herself and what made her special. She became what one such as her father might call a rebellious child, but she remained responsible and aware of her surroundings and situation at all times. Due to her strained relationship with her father, whom enjoyed order above all else, she felt it best to do her soul-searching away from the small band of centaurs.

Away from that safety only found in numbers, Lobina learned quickly how to provide for herself and to guard and fight against predatory types. But she also learned that she was not the only young taur around, and from their influence learned that tight self-control can be just as constricting as an overbearing parent or even simply fear. Needless to say, she has gotten herself into some precarious, dangerous, silly, and embarrassing situations. She likes to relate some of her more entertaining stories to her mother and siblings.

Acquaintances :

Araven (Dooma) -- Such a sweet girl! She makes Lobina nostalgic about her younger siblings and considers her a "sister in spirit," or simply, "spirit sister." Since Araven has grown, another intimate love is not out of the question.

Friends :

Name : Bedisa
Type : cattaur
Gender : female
Orientation : heterosexual

Mate : none
Child(ren) : none
Mother : ???
Father : ???
Sibling(s) : litters and a hoof or two
Cousin(s) : Zeru
Familiar : none

Temper : enduring, silly
Likes : butterflies, painting her claws and nails (and others', especially Zeru's)
Dislikes : letting bad luck or mistakes make her angry or defeated
Mannerisms : rather clumsy
Theme Song :

Colorist : Ovarian Paint, with help with Lil on eye color, flowers, and nails
Obtained : semi-customs Mar-Apr 2015
Name Significance : 'Bedisa' is a feminine name from the Georgian word bedi, meaning "fate." This is significant because many more calamities and strange twists of luck befall her than anyone else around her, and so she sees it as her lot in life.

History :

Bedisa grew up in a diverse family, spanning both equine and feline branches. That said, she and Zeru were probably the closest in age and found it only natural to stay close as they grew. His lighthearted outlook helped hers to remain intact, though sometimes when she has a bad day the strain begins to show.

Secretly, in recent years she enjoys the confusion suffered by others when she and Zeru interact. Having such a large and imposing escort usually scares other males away. It's just safer that way. There would be no awkwardness, nobody laughing at her. At least with Zeru she can trust that he will always laugh with her.

Acquaintances :

none

Friends :

Zeru

Name : Zeru
Type : centaur
Gender : male
Orientation : bisexual

Mate : none
Child(ren) : none
Mother : ???
Father : ???
Sibling(s) : ???
Cousin(s) : Bedisa
Familiar : none

Temper : jovial
Likes : being physical: labor-intensive jobs, lifting and pulling, building, competitive (sports-like) games; rolling in the grass; watching the sunrise, sunset, and stars; laughing and enjoying life
Dislikes : bullies, braggarts, and general negativity; laying about and being lazy, unless it is for the above reasons or for romantic reasons <3
Mannerisms : he has a funny way of getting down in your face and acting silly to persuade someone to do something, vaguely cat-like (probably influenced by cattaur relatives)
Theme Song :

Colorist : Revel1984
Obtained : first flaffle, 9 Apr 2015
Name Significance : 'Zeru' is a masculine Basque name meaning "sky," which refers to his sky-blue eyes, and the way he likes to look up at the sky.

History :

Zeru's family has a tendency to intermix with cattaurs throughout many generations. Sometimes bets are taken as to whether a pregnancy will result in claws or hooves. As a result, Zeru has a very open mind when it comes to love, which he says sees no boundaries. Another result is some equines have feline mannerisms and vice versa. Zeru's fun-loving and playful attitude can rightly be attributed to this.

His favorite cousin is Bedisa. Her strange tendency to get into trouble, trip on imaginary things (or her paws), clumsiness, and general awkwardness have been a learning experience for both. He has tried, through the years to help her laugh at her misfortune and press on ahead with great courage.

Acquaintances :

Jötunn (Dooma) -- He is so laid-back! More soon.

Friends :

Bedisa -- One of many cousins but one he grew up with, she is like a little sister to him. He goes out of his way to make her smile and help her see her potential.

Enemies :

none

Father : ???
Sibling(s) : ???
Cousin(s) : possibly Lobina
Familiar : none

Temper : contemplative
Likes : springtime, sitting under trees, moss, singing birds, etc.
Dislikes : being forced to speak on the spot
Mannerisms : Never imposing, he has a way of entering the company of others without them taking much notice. He will half-watch, half-listen, rarely alerting others that he is watching them, because he isn't. He likes the company without interacting, and he likes the background noise of others having fun.
Theme Song :

Colorist : Ovarian Paint
Obtained : second semi-custom, Apr. 2015
Name Significance : Saverio is an Italian way of writing the name Xavier, which means "new home," otherwise there isn't much significance (yet?).

Name : Wayra
Type : cattaur
Gender : male
Orientation : heterosexual

Mate : none
Child(ren) : none
Mother : deceased
Father : deceased
Sibling(s) : none
Cousin(s) : Bedisa, Zeru
Familiar : none

Temper : focused
Likes : the soft sound of the wind across the dunes, being alone.
Dislikes : large groups of other taurs
Mannerisms : Making only soft sounds at most, Wayra has a deliberate, slinky way of moving. His eyes are intense and focus, as if everything is a potential target. It probably is.
Theme Song : "Tea in the Sahara," by Sting

Colorist : Revel1984
Obtained : semi-custom, Apr. 2015
Name Significance : "Wayra" is a name meaning "wind" in the Quechua language, which is used in the Andes mountains. This brings to mind the wind blowing through stunted trees and dry mountainous landscapes.

History :

Part of Bedisa and Zeru's clan, Wayra is the last surviving member of his branch of the family tree. His parents had no other children, and he does not plan to be. The possibility of this bloodline's extinction does not really bother him, though relatives have suggested (some more forcefully than others) that he continue on the line.

Acquaintances :
