Once upon a time, thousands of years ago...

A mother polar bear and her two cubs were traveling across the Arctic tundra during a blizzard. As the three traveled, a lost shaman stumbled upon them. At first, the mother bear remained on guard around the woman because humans were always violent creatures who killed polar bears and their cubs. However, as the shaman kept her distance as she followed them for several days, the mother bear became less tense, but never did she lower her guard.

One day, as the blizzard began to pass, the mother bear and her cubs caught a seal to eat. It had been many, many days since either the bears or the woman had eaten, and so when the mother bear caught the seal, she and her cubs gorged themselves on the animal until they could no longer strip the meat off the carcass. The shaman took this opportunity to approach the carcass and pick off the remaining meat.

At this moment, the mother bear never reacted less than aggressive around the shaman, but for this brief moment in time, she allowed the human to eat from the carcass. And eat. And eat some more. The mother bear allowed her to eat until she picked the meat and fat clean off the bones. Then she and her cubs began walking again with the shaman following much closer behind them.

Soon, the blizzard passed and the group neared a sleepy little village nestled in the tundra. Overjoyed, the shaman thanked the mother bear and her cubs for their kindness before parting ways.

For several days, the shaman rested in the sleepy village, exchanging trinkets for food and board. The shaman knew from simply looking at this village that if they knew of her magic, they would kill her for the fear of the unknown caused the deaths of many innocents. And she managed to keep her secret until the last day when an innocent child from the inn spotted her using magic to mend her clothing. After telling his mother, who told her husband and the other villagers. Gathering in a mob, the villagers moved to kill the shaman who ran into the tundra.

While the shaman was in the village, the mother bear and her cubs remained nearby in a snow den they dug out themselves because another blizzard had passed through, worse than the previous one, and trapped the bears in their den. On the night when the mob gathered, the blizzard had reached its lowest point, allowing the bears to take a break from their den. The mother bear and her cubs were hunting in the ice when the shaman stumbled nearby, chased by the mob. As the mob gathered around the fallen shaman, the mother bear suddenly charged at the mob. With the aide of her cubs, the mother bear defended the shaman until the mob dispersed.

Amazed by the will of the mother bear and her cubs, the shaman could only gape in awe. Then an idea came to mind. Pulling out her supplies, the shaman blessed the mother bear and her cubs with a spell.

The night sky danced with the most brilliant colors as they and the arctic wind wrapped around the bears and then vanished without a trace. In their wake, three nude humans, a mother and her two children. Kneeling, the shaman quickly dressed the three and taught them human tongue. She taught them human customs and human dress. Most of all, she taught them that only bears such as themselves could transform, if they proved to be as kind and selfless as the mother bear. All their descendants would be blessed as well, so long as the Spirits allowed it.

And so is the story of how the First Queen of the Polar Bears and the Kingdom of Ice came to pass.

Name: Nanuq.
Bear Name: A series of deep rumbled growls, which mean 'Strength enough to crack mountains beneath his paws and Kingdoms beneath his feet.'
Age: 30 y/o man to a much older human.
Gender: Male.
Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual.
Rank: King.
Powers: He is a polar bear who can shift into a human. A cold breeze follows him wherever he goes.
Other: He lacks the ability to care for others, so he has no qualms with killing others.
Appearance: A huge, handsome specimen, both as a human and as a polar bear. His skin is a darker honey-brown than his son, Armel, but his hair and eyes are the same. He has several scars around his body, whether they are from fights or romantic encounters, he keeps you guessing. If it wasn't for the perpetual sneer on his face, he would look even more handsome than he already is.
Bio/Personality: Nanuq was born into an old family of polar bears from the North American territories. Upon meeting Bera, one of the princesses from the royal family, he wasted no time in gaining her favor and taking her to bed. The two of them have an agreement to gain as much power as possible, including attaining the throne. When the opportunity came to fight for the throne, Nanuq knew he could win, and he did without a doubt. He had no qualms with killing Bera's brothers and nephews to gain the throne. His apathetic nature makes him suitable to be Bera's mate, though it also makes him unsuitable to be a faithful mate and a father, but Bera is just the same. Fidelity only matters to them both when it comes to mating season. Otherwise, they live two separate lives of tyranny.

Name: Bera.
Bear name: A series of gentle sounds and grunts that mean, 'Sweet nightingale that sings beneath the stars'.
Age: 28 y/o woman to an older woman.
Gender: Female.
Sexual Orientation: Pansexual.
Rank: Queen.
Powers: She can transform into a human and has a cold breeze follow her around.
Other: Born into the second-longest reigning family to hold the throne since the First Queen, Bera views herself as more evolved than the commoners and even other nobility.
Appearance: Bera is heavy-set, but she's all muscle and strength. She has curly blond hair that falls like a curtain of water. Her skin is the color of a mother-of-pearl, completely flawless. Her eyes are the color of sapphires.
Bio/Personality: Arrogant beyond what is normal, for even a snobby noble, Bera has been raised in the lap of luxury and with a sense that she is higher above than other bears. Bera only wants the strongest surrounding her, and she, without hesitation, will kill those who are not the strongest. So, when she met Nanuq, she could see his strength and he lusted after her. It didn't take long for her to manipulate him into taking the lead in their relationship. Then, when her parents announced the battle royal for their abdication, she did not fret that Nanuq could possibly die because, if he did, she would simply kill the mate of the bear who would win the throne and become queen herself.

Name: Eden.
Bear name: Several soft grunts and snorts that mean, 'Petal blossoms fall before her paws'.
Age: 13 (as a bear) 20 (as a human).
Gender: Female.
Sexual Orientation: Homosexual.
Rank: First Princess.
Powers: She can transform into a human and has a cold breeze follow her around.
Appearance: She is a mix between her mother and paternal grandmother in facial features. However, she is more muscular and warrior-like than either females she takes after. Her long, blonde hair is kept in a loose braid hanging down to her feet. She does not wear jewelry or makeup. She always has a serve look of disdain on her face wherever she goes.
Other: Eden has no interest in males and can always be found surrounded by her all-female guard wherever she goes. Her refusal to take on a husband, even when he won the right to her hand, irks her parents. She is the one pawn that does not obey their will. Eden usually stays away from the court, preferring to live on the ice as a bear.
Bio/Personality: Born as the eldest cub and daughter of Bera and Nanuq, before they became the queen and king of the polar bears. From the start of her life, Eden understood her parents were cruel and vile creatures not fit to raise cubs, let alone rule an entire kingdom. She tried to play the good and devoted daughter, humble and docile, but as her brothers became more and more violent and as she was discovering her sexuality, she realized she could not be the princess her family wanted, so she ran away.
As soon as she could, Eden gathered the few female guards who were willing to follow her, not come with her because they were told to, and left the kingdom. At the time, her grandparents ruled as king and queen, and they had no interest either way of her choice in life. They found it more amusing how angry her parents became at her actions.
Eden has lived mostly on the tundra since then, only visiting occasionally to see how her sisters and their cubs are doing. She doesn't let it on that she cares about her sisters because she knows the slightest hint of love will mark the end of their lives as they knew them.

Name: Armel.
Bear names: The name his parents gave him: A long series of growls and grunts that mean, 'Obedient servant who bends to the Forces of Nature and worships his Sovereigns'. The resulting nickname of this name is 'Obedient servant'.
The name Annabelle gave him: A short series of soft whines and growls that mean, 'He whose laughter commands the sun to shine'. ("When you smile, it's like a refreshing breeze. When you laugh, it's like the sun appearing after a sudden summer storm. It is a wish on my part that you will one day find happiness." -Annabelle) The resulting nickname from this name is 'Sunshine'.
Age: 2 years (as a bear) and 5 (as a human) up to his current age.
Gender: Male.
Rank: Prince/Royal Guard.

Other: He is a warrior and excels in hand-to-hand combat, long- and short-range weaponry, and diplomatic skills.
Appearance: A honey-brown skinned boy with straight, bright yellow hair and cold, gold eyes. Never smiles, never gives much of a facial expression.
Bio/Personality: Armel was born in November 1995 in the Siberian tundra. His mother was a traditionalist when it came to many customs, including pregnancy. She only gave birth as polar bears naturally did, so no exact date for his birth is known. Armel obeys his parents with an eerie sort of obedience not seen in most cubs in age. He doesn't speak of his siblings unless asked, and the answers he gives are vague. He seems to hold no love for anyone, even himself.
Silent, quiet like a mouse. He prefers to observe his surroundings before acting. He obeys his parents and anyone who has authority over them because his parents gave them that authority. When he speaks, it is only after weighing in the pros and cons of it. Nothing is said without a meaning.

Name: Amaya
Bear Name: A few soft sounds, followed by a gentle snort, meaning, "Beautiful as home, and precious as ice."
Age: Bear: Newborn to young adult in course of rp
Gender: Female
Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual
Rank: Nobel families daughter ----> future Queen
Powers: Can transform from human form to large polar bear. Always accompanied by a chill in the air
Other: N/A
Appearance: As a bear she grows up to have a strong but elegant appearance, as a human and dignified looking blond with an icy-blue stare.
Bio/Personality:As a child Amaya is curious but cautious. As an adult, Amaya is usually diplomatic, if not a bit cold. However she can have a sharp temper if crossed and demands respect for her kind as their leader. She also detests weak males, however she has a soft spot for females and children.

She is rarely seen in her bear form when not around her kind (then she uses it almost exclusively). She has great pride in it, but finds in inconvenient not to be able to communicate outside her species when speaking to others.

Name: Abigail
Bear Name: A musical name, a mix of low and hight pitched rumbles, meaning, "Born to wealth, born to beauty."
Age: Young adult to older woman over course of rp
Gender: Female
Sexual Orientation: No longer interested in love, but will entertain romance to further her position and standing for the sake of her daughter.
Rank: Noble bear, Amaya's Mother
Powers: Can transform from human form to large polar bear. Always accompanied by a chill in the air.
Other: Nope!
Appearance: A smaller female bear with a brutal scar across one half of her face, the other half being very youthful and expressive.
Bio/Personality: Abigail has had to make sacrifices her whole life. Used as a chip by her parents to gain a higher standing, she was forced into a courtship with a very aggressive male bear. Her heart never belonged to him, despite him creating her precious daughter with her. Once docile and agreeable towards her mate even in his anger, she began to lash out and retaliate when his aggression turned towards their cub. One day, when protecting Amaya from him she ended up killing him in a vicious battle, which earned her the nasty scar on her face.

She has since been seen as a more valuable commodity among the bears, who value strength. While her scars make her somewhat of a nasty thing to look at form one side, they prove she is strong and a viciously protective mother. Her daughter is what matters most to her in the world, not herself or her people or the kingdom.

She sees herself as no different than her mother and the others, with the exception that she renders those she beds helpless beneath her, but that's when she's all grown up. As a child, she is obedient and silent to the nobles, doing as she's told and learning what she needs to so she may serve the crown. It is surviving that's the top priority on her list of things to do, and she excels at it. Justine finds great joy in messing with Prince Armel because, try as she might, she can always read his expressionless face; that, and she knows the last thing Armel ever wants to do is draw attention to himself, so he never mentions her bullying to his parents or other adults.

Rank: Second prince.

Name: Sapata.
Bear name: A long growl that means, 'Humble swan'.
Appearance: 9 (as a bear) and 16 (as a human). Sapata is also small because of her age, but she is still larger than Nita. She looks like Bera, except more of an expressionless version of the queen.
