A note from the Ranger: As discussed in PM, a disability like blindness that was present from hatching would result in the chick being tumbled from the nest, and left to die. Also, at this time Mystics are an almost-entirely closed task. Owner: [.Ginger Wonton.]
Name: Sigil (If not acceptable I will choose another name!)
Gender: Female
Age: All Stages requested.
Hatch Date: Feb. 2, 2008 ??? (I don’t really understand this. It is born when the egg hatches from whenever I manage to afford one of these…)
Profession: Mystic
Base Color Type: Aberrant (Ghost and Shadow types of coloring/marking.)
Detailed Marking Description: Irregular foot stripes, and feather tip spots on wings, tail feathers and ‘ear’ feathers. Absence of ‘owl-y mask’ on face. I hope to choose the second lineart for the female where she’s standing erect and able to see her tail feathers a bit better.
Eyes: Both lightly to moderately filmed over (Blindness.)
Beak: Burnished dark coppery (Not metallic)
Talons: Burnished dark coppery (Not metallic.)
Feather Dye: Maybe later. But it wouldn’t matter much to the Sentinel because she’s blind anyway. She wouldn’t see it.
Accessories: A holey stone necklace, like Snowdrift, surreality‘s Sentinel but with the stone dark colored and the beads black. (Unless this is the item that denotes a teacher’s rank.) Also a headband like the sample shown in the simple accessories area wrought in a lighter coppery toned metal, set with an onyx.
Companion: Two albino Mus twins.
References: None.
Part I – The Sentinel Player: [.Ginger Wonton.]
Name: Sigil (if not acceptable I will choose another name!)
Nicknames: Sisi.
Species: Sentinel of Noctua
Age: Hatchling (All stage custom eventually)
Hatch Date: Feb. 2, 2008 ??? (I don’t really understand this. It is born when the egg hatches from whenever I manage to afford one of these…)
Type: Aberrant (Ghost and Shadow types of coloring/marking.)
Task: Mystic
Personality: Because Sigil can not see, she has developed the only power to ‘see’ through the use of her will and that is all. Since she is only a hatchling this second sight is very, very poor. If things are moving too quickly or are not within five feet - closer preferably - she can not perceive whatever he or she, or even what it is. She missed half of her feedings at first but managed to learn to just open her mouth at the right moment and not move. She would not be able to find her voice until she is about the fledgling age.
As Sisi ages she becomes rather anti-social, an imposing thing she set herself up to. Envious of those that can truly see and perceive color, or those that can stand up for them selves - speak. She feels that she is a failure to all Sentinels, and yet also craves approval and or praise. However, she shuts herself away to explore the extent of her will. Perhaps hopefully to discover something meaningful to fill a growing void in her life.
History: Born with sight disfigurement, eyes were filmed over thus blind. Poor was the choice of who had brought this abandoned egg into the Minder’s nesting site. Along with the blindness many thought that she was mute but only has underdeveloped vocal chords. She has a whispery rasp when speaking.
Territory: As a hatchling she cannot really stake out any territory. She probably would not really stake any claims, but flit from area to area as a vagabond, a pseudo-Watcher. One who can not really watch like the others.
Mate: None! (Right now just a hatchling! But later on she may hopefully find someone…)
Companions: Yes.
Certificate: (Post the link to the cert) ???
