You have come to the Notebook of Gullien and Rossi . Please do not post unless you have their permission.
This Dew egg was received by Gullien on May 15th, 2005:

About Dew Dew is liquid water droplets that form on surfaces through the process of condensation. Dew forms on objects when the temperature of the air reaches the dew point . The dew point is the temperature at which saturation occurs and dew can form. Dew can also freeze and become frost. Angel's TearsThe mysteries of nature, The sun rays searching spied The drops of dew so crystal clear Like diamonds glorified. An angel must have cried last night, Tears falling from the sky Must have seeped down through the stars In heaven, way up high. Do angels cry the drops of dew That grace the early morn, Then scamper off to disappear When dawn's first light is born? Perhaps that dawn, while creeping forth Upon the secrets bold... Could tell us if those silver drops Were touched by wands of gold.
Please keep your egg in a cool place.
It should hatch in 5-10 days heart

 Welcome to Rossi and Gullien's journal. This journal is for a sweet little Dew from Pikabunny's Wethkin store. (Although you've probably already guessed that). Please be polite in the thread and please don't post without asking. Thank you!

  Name: Rossi, Ros for short. Meaning: Rossi is the latin word for dew, but it also refers to the alchemical meaning of the word dew which is 'the essence of a thing." Gender: Honorary Female (hey, she loves horses!) Life Stage: Larvapuff Likes: Fish, the color green, getting to splash around in water, fruit snacks and going very very quickly. Bio: Rossi simply arrived one misty morning in the form of a small and squishy egg left on Gullien's doorstep. Wheither the egg was dropped by someone, brought in by a Nim or simply willed there by a greater power is unknown. Rossi's origin is simply a mystery. Gullien immediently put the little egg in an aquarium (later to be joined by a mysterious Nim pearl) and hoped for the best. Rossi's workings were a mystery and all that Gullien knew is that, like a jellyfish, the little egg seemed to be evaporating as it sat outside. Thankfully, being in an aquarium surrounded by cool waters and hidden in shadow was just the thing for Rossi and a few days later she hatched! Rossi right now is a very young and very active larvapuff. Athough she's too small to make the kind of mess some of Gullien's other kids could generate, Rossi is just the right size to get into all kinds of trouble. She's ready and eager to explore the world, even the bits where exploration is a bad idea. Fortunately, her family is always ready to come to her rescue.  Rossi feels: Pretty darned happy, I'd say.

 Name: Gullien, occasionally Gulli or Gull or G to special peoples. Meaning:None at all really. Is it even a real name? Gender: Basically female (also likes horses!) Life Stage: Adult
Likes: The color green, eating, sleeping, SODA, playing video games, being up all night, getting up early in the morning, catnaps, basically being a bum and all of her kids.
Bio:
Gullien was born a small tanuki in a back alley in Japan in the 1940s. She was an ordinary tanuki, with two brothers and a sister that died during the birthing process. She grew up eating what little garbage there was in Japan at the time, koi fish stolen from ponds, crops and during 1945, human bodies and whatever else was evacuated from Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Eventually she bred and had two kits of her own.
Joshua Whitefoot's father was assigned to occupied Japan in 1947. As a high-ranking officer, he took his family and child along with him. Joshua resented the move greatly. He had been very high-status in his home tribe of the Peori Indians and had been studying under the tribe's medicine man to someday take over his position. He was taken from his home to a weird where both the enemy and the allies resented himself and his family for their social status, for the color of their skin and for their presence. Joshua hated Japanese food, he hated seeing death and agony on a daily basis and he hated the constant reminders that he had no place there. Even moreso, Joshua missed his shaman training, which he loved dearly. In secret, Joshua began to train himself, using his anger and hate as fuel, a dangerous thing.
In Joshua's first attempt to call a Spirit guide, he erred. Rather than summon an ancestoral animal spirit to guide him, he accidentally tore the soul from a small Tanuki, leaving it dead in an alley in front of two squalling children. Joshua was disgusted with the small creature that could neither understand or aid him and attempted to banish it, only to realize that in his attempt he had trapped it within his own soul. Banishing the tanuki to the farthest reached of his mind, he ignored her.
Trapped within Joshua's mind, alone, frighted and aching, the tanuki eventually gave up attempting escape and simply slept.
Joshua soon attempted to summon another spirit guide. In his arrogance and disregard he accidentally summoned something else, that rose from bodies piled upon bodies in the mass graves of Hiroshima.
In the horrible years that followed Hiroshima, no one noticed that a mass-murdered walked among them. Who would notice one or two bodies among a hundred of them and who would notice if one or two had tooth marks when so many more were covered in radiation burns. Amid the mass human suffering a boy lost his soul and a tanuki slept.
It wasn't until five years later that a Shinto priest lead his disciples and the chosen warriors of Emperor Hirohito in subduing the beast. The battle was long and hard but eventually they trapped the monster away, all of them giving their lives to keep him sealed. Joshua's body lay lifeless. In an attempt to save the boy, the priest gave his last breath to call back the soul they found in his body. The soul wasn't Joshua's.
Gullien awoke as a human for the first time in a room full of blood and bodies. Her coming had changed the body she lived in. It was not longer male and a long fluffy tail puffed from the base of her spine, showing all the world she was an imposter. Her hair was an impossible human shade and the use of two legs was beyond her. She simply sat.
And so...
Following her rebirth, Gullien was found by the rest of the emporer's team, the last ninja in Japan. Not knowing what else to do with this powerful but helpless monster they took her to the Emporer who gifted her to them in return. She was formally trained in both ninjitsu and in being a human. During her training it was discovered that Jousha was not dead. He lived on as a windigo. A fraction of his soul remained in her forehead, forming a small bindi. When unleashed, his hunger was amazing, he would eat as much as her body could hold, almost always in flesh. It was a well know fact amoung the ninja that Gullien always wore her ninja band. This was what restrained him. After five years with her team and family, Gullien left. Perhaps the most significant thing about that is that in a team where one's only escape is to kill or be killed, the ninja head let her go. What deal or threat she made with him to result in this is unknown. Gullien wandered, doing oddjobs until she finally made her home in Gaia.
Currently she raises koi for money and a large number of useless Nim.
Gullien is: feeling optimistic!

 Rossi's friends and house matesByron: Byron is a Spiritkin, that is to say, a Wethkin attached to a particular season. Because of this, he will never grow beyond his puff stage, but then again, that's true for many Wethkin as well.
Gullien received Byron from her friend Everdark as a Valentine's gift. Byron initally had a tough time in the household. He was frequently mistaken (and masticated) as candy by Matthias, whose love of candy occasionally overcomes his eyesight. Byron was also routinely tormented by the Nimue who were fascinated by this new cinnamon-scented creature. Thankfully, Byron has a tough and fiery personality. He refuses to be cowed by these events and has carved himself a firm niche in the household. (Although Gullien's moving the Nimue to their own atrium and Matthias's growing up and growing less fanatic about candy may have helped.)Unnamed Nimue Pearl: Gullien found this pearl on the same day she found Rossi's egg. While it appears to be a Water Nim Pearl, it's like no type of pearl Gullien has ever seen before. The little pearl is now being kept in an aquarium in Gullien/Rossi's room and hopefully someday it will hatch into a new family member.

 This is Rossi's special room (okay, it's Gullien's desk) where she sleeps
and keeps all of her special furniture and items.
Rossi's Nim pearl. Gullien found this odd Nim pearl and decided to keep with Rossi in this aquarium. While Rossi has hatched now, the pearl has not. Rossi is very close to the pearl and often "talks" to it and makes sure Gullien keeps the water and aquarium clean. Both Rossi and Gullien are looking forward to seeing this pearl hatch.

 All of Rossi's favorite toys.  Gullien just calls this guy Mr. Bunny. He's actually one of Matthias's old toys, so he's sized for a dragon and not a little Wethkin. Rossi's about the same size as Mr. Bunny's face. She doesn't care, however. She loves to push Mr. Bunny so he flops over and then she comes and makes Gullien prop him back up again. His tummy is also the perfect size for a sleepy wethkin who wants to take a nap. This little guy came out of the bottom of a ceral box. He doesn't have a name, but he's quite small (about the size of a Pink Pet eraser)and very sturdy so Rossi can trot him around and pretend to ride him and make horsie noises (or at least as close to horsie noises as she can get). Kids always seem to love horses.
A small toy egg-thing I bought for Rossi at a garage sale. It has a bell in the bottom and it's a little bit like a punching bag. You can push it and it doesn't fall over, it just pops back up again. Rossi had a lot of fun with it until it caught her right between the eyes and knocked her to the floor. I think she's a bit afraid of it now.

 A collection of Rossi's pictures and other special objects, to help remember times gone past. A picture of Rossi's egg when Gullien first found it. She could tell right away that this little egg was something special.
Rossi and the Nim pearl in the aquarium Gullien found. Rossi's egg seemed to be drying out and leaking when Gullien found it, so she ended up putting it in this old aquarium. Since the odd Nim pearl she found also seems to be of the Water type, she put that in the aquarium too.

 They won't show up, but we like to remember that they're there.
Simon is a likable if somewhat surly Lethe. He lives on Cowan's estate with his roommate Adrian. He loves to garden and is a sucker for anything small, cute and helpless. Simon is generally good-natured but suffers from acute hearing. Make any loud noises and he'll probably kill you.
Claire is Gullien's first Aether. She's a bright and outgoing Nanus and loves to play games and make friends. She's not old enough to live on her own like Simon and Adrian, but she is currently boarding at a year-round Gaian school for gifted children. She currently knows Simon and Adrian only through letters, but it should be interesting when they all meet at the holidays. Adrian is Simon's roommate and counterpart. He's a soft-spoken and goodnatured Aborior who unfortunately seems to have the memories (and some of the powers) of a video-game character. Alucard from Castlevania to be exact. While Simon isn't wild about the bloodsucking (although he does love the wolf-puppy transformation) he, like Gullien, has grown to accept Adrian as the bizarre personality he is.  Matthias is a male dragon Dream Keeper. Gullien has had him since he was just a little Dream and the two of them are very close. He has his own room in the house, but now that he's an adult he's usually out at work or searching for adventure. Matthias is both brave and sweet and is usually found hanging around with his pal Malakai. Although Matthias has yet to achieve his final Dream Keeper form, he loves being an adult and the flight ability that comes with it. Gullien's Nimue. These beautiful little creatures represent the fractured soul of Nimue, a woman with mystic powers who died from a broken heart when her lover Merlin chose to serve King Arthur over loving her. In reality, however, Gullien's Nimue are much less mystic than... say, annoying. These little ladies are non-stop flyers, talkers and explorers and get into everything to such a degree that Gullien actually built them an atrium, lest they bring Gullien's house down around everyone's ears.
The current Nimue Gullien owns are Spectrum, Chroma, Iridis, Lenore, Rose, Elaine, Esprit, Sakar, and Tempest, with more on the way. If you wish to know more about them, please visit Gullien's Nimue journal.

 Where to get what Gullien's got All Nimue came from this store, run by Everdark.
 Matthias is from this store, run by Trev27 and Aria Kitsune (appears to currently be on hiatus)  Simon, Adrian and Claire are all from Aether, which gives out free pets as long as you color and cert them. I don't really need to say where Rossi came from, do I?  Rossi's green horsie came from this Mini-shop. An off-Gaia site with free stuffed animal clipart (that resemble Beanie Babies to a possibly illegal degree.) Mr. Bunny is from here.  I made my Gullien emotion doll with a base from this website, one of the most ripped-off doll base sites on Gaia. If you see one of her bases and there's no credit give to her or a link provided to her site... well. There's all kinds of art theft. The Rossi emotion doll I made myself. ^^ Aquarium lineart curtisy of Ushiyasha and "LufflyFishiz".
