Gen/Event: Belated Anniversary Event

Artist: F a l l a c y
Current Events
What: Encounters Espia
Where: in-shop RP
Summary: Encountering another follower of Venezia does not spell a new alliance. Far from it. But who had the last laugh? Both think they did... but it was probably Venezia.
What: Transformed!
Where: point of reference
Summary: Ruin was completely transformed, somehow, after entering the carnival. She is now in the service of Venezia and has become some sort of dragon-like centaur. She has become even more surly and vicious, if that's even possible. She absolutely loves what has happened to her.
What: Carnevale!
Where: Carnevale della Fine: behind the scenes
Summary: Venezia, god of Carnivals, selected a small group of pockettu to join him on a tour of the grounds before the official opening! Ruin was one of these, and there's no telling what sinister fate may befall her. She was just looking for a job as a fire-eater.Quote: "Hello, visitor. Greetings and welcome to Carnevale della Fine. A show like no other! It will leave you breathless." Venezia bowed to conceal a smirk growing on his porcelain face. "I will allow a lucky select few to pass the gates before it is open to the general public. Eager, aren't we? Please line up single file and humor me for a bit."
He turned around and leaded those interested towards the backside of the campgrounds. It was dark and very little provided light except for the ominous glow of the carnival's attractions locked securely behind the gate. "Ah ha, I do hope you're not afraid of the dark. We get ready without light so no wandering eyes may spot our entertainers." He chuckled a bit and waves a sleeved hand. "Nothing here will harm you while I am here. Now then!" He stopped and pivoted on his heel, gazing at all whom followed him. "I will ask you one thing... what has brought you to Carnevale della Fine? Curiosity has gotten the better of me. Let us hope it doesn't storm today." Quote: What has brought them to the carnival and why do they wish to enter?:
Feanuruin shuffles around on four fiery legs with arms crossed against her chest and what could be a shiver of cold, or fear, or perhaps even disgust as she glances around at the gathering crowd. "I was told you guys might need a fire-eater for your show. But I wanted to check the place out first." When someone gently bumps into her as the crowd presses close, her lip curls and she backs a step or two back. "What kind'a fire and accident insurance you guys have?" she asks with a smirk. Quote: Venezia studied those before him, surveying every aspect as they spoke. Such a slight narrowing of the eyes revealed that his decision was made. He clasped his hands together and let out a small, dark chuckle. "Well, well. I have made my decision. The whole lot of you are quiet interesting. Some of you look like you just waltzed out of a circus yourself." He tilted his head and began to point to each Pockettu he desired to follow him past the gates.
Damion.
Angel.
Celyn.
Feanuruin.
Caleb.
"Those who were pointed to, please follow me. Those who were not so lucky, I do hope to see you once our gates officially open." Venezia bowed and led the group inside. Oh, what horrors waited them...
What: Meets Dart
Where: in-shop RP
Summary: A carnival is rumored to appear very soon and the crowd has made her snarky and nervous. But something about Dart calmed her usual desire to pick a fight.
What: First appearance
Where: in-shop RP
Summary: Fresh out of the bubble and she's trying to pick fights with everyone, including the owners! Pent up energy or a general dislike for life as we know it?

Thurayya  This pockettu's package comes wrapped in
rainbows and sparkles
but her smile suggests
artistically sinister schemes.
Name
Pronunciation: thoor AY uh
Origins: Arabic
Meaning:
- Means: star
- Refers to: the Pleides ("seven sisters") constellation
- So: Thurayya was part of a raffle with six other pockettu. Her colors reminded me of the evening and stars, so, she was one of seven "siblings"
Gachapon
Gen/Event: Anthro!Sparky's first giveaway (May '12 fraffle)
Parents/Edition: Unedited
Artist: Anthro!Sparky
Current Events
What: Carnevale
Where: [ no links yet ]
Summary: The first god-pockettu, Venezia, is gearing up for the Carnavale della Fine, which has her understandably curious, by her mischievous nature! However, something seems to be amiss and she has not yet seen the repercussions.
What: Meets Shepherd
Where: in-shop RP
Summary: A free raffle for breedings in honor of Mother's Day lead these two to meet. She was able to calm him down and they became tentative friends.
Relationships
Mate: none
Owner:
Nature:
Offspring:
- None: ...
Name: Shepherd
- Owner: Pidgeons Go Meow X3
- Met: in-shop (see above)
- Status: acquaintance
- Opinion: Well, she isn't quite sure yet. But his fearfulness is rather endearing to her and she does not mind looking out for him at all.
Personality
Attitude: She seems like a perfectly kind and gentle girl, but every now and then she's caught wearing a peculiar smirk that easily disappears as if it were completely natural (and probably is). She spends a great deal of time star gazing, but is she fascinated by the science, the aesthetic, or is she completely preoccupied with something else? Sometimes loud noises, like power tools perhaps? can be heard coming from her box...
Likes: Stars, sunsets, bright colors, eclectic music, painting
Dislikes: unknown
History: unknown

Yaxha Greenwater  That's some old school punk right thar
Name
Pronunciation: yaa shah green water
Origins: Spanish (Mayan); English
Meaning:
- Yaxha: green water
- Greenwater: green water
- Oy, wut: it's a play on the scientific name for green (common pet) iguana: iguana iguana.
Gachapon
Gen/Event: May 2012 customs
Parents/Edition: OC/heavy edit
Artist: SerenAur
Current Events
What: Capsules!
Where: all in-shop Fathers Day || on the way || arrived || witnessing child abuse || babies! || Seleni eats dolly-daddy || teething
Summary: Several mini-rps that deal with... capsules!
What: Pix goes above the bar
Where: in-shop RP, link needed || not archived yet
Summary: Yaxha shares the rooftop oasis he uses to sunbathe and things get serious.
What: reunited with Pix
Where: in-shop RP || archived here (thanks Akki! )
Summary: Yaxha suddenly discovered the existence of Pix in the Pockettu universe (they have met elsewhere) and that he still has this single employee for his bar. That happens to live with him. Also, Pix is very confusing, either that or he has some serious personal space issues.
Relationships
Mate: Pix Pyan
Owner: Yousei Akki
Met: a very long time ago. Oh, only a few months? Seems longer. =P
Status: employee only! 8[ well, crap...
Opinion: He's just a kid. >8[ A really mixed-up one, with nowhere else to go. I'm sure he'll move on (and out of my basement) when he finds something better. Or... maybe he really does know what he wants. >>; I'm not sure who's the bigger fool, him or me...
Nature: He's not going to put any pressure on Pix but he's a one-flame kinda guy. (Still half-expects Pix to find greener pastures.) With the arrival of a pair of capsules, it has become quite obvious how serious Pix really is.
Offspring:
- Omeco: the daughter in direct care of Yaxha
- Seleni: the daughter in direct care of Pix
Personality
Attitude: Yaxha is easy-going and amiable, loyal to friends, and rather cool with the authorities (as in, not very helpful). A bit slow to get intimate on any level. He will run from a fight until cornered, but will fight to the death when he needs to. Rather protective of his tail (except with Pix). His shirt is a pun: bamboo chicken. Figure it out and get a free drink. Then step off, pal. Has a bad habit of taking in strays, but keeps a hidden crowbar, baseball bat, and probably some other paraphernalia that may come in handy should said strays get too rambunctious. He is a vegan by physiology, not by philosophy, and will happily serve meat to a customer.
Likes: Chatting, pool (the game), loud music, swimming, sunbathing
Dislikes: Authority, rules, dumbass drunken fighting (any other fighting is okay?)
History: Owns and is the bartender of a rundown little bar that serves all sorts. The only stipulation is that fights be taken off the property so he doesn't have to deal with the cops.
His extended family comes from South America, which is the origin for his given name (and where green iguanas are indigenous). He spent his childhood in England, where he learned his street smarts and absorbed the punk scene. He spent the majority of his life in backwater America (Gaia?) however. He has an ex that left him to pursue a career as a singer and is doing respectably well. You will never see her, he will not talk about her but rarely. However, they seem to be on good terms and he keeps a signed picture of her on the wall behind the bar.
Thanks to his family, he grew up assuming boys like girls and vice versa. Friends showed him otherwise. As a result he has a default thought process about the whole concept, but has long-since discovered his own bisexuality. He has no real hang-ups about it, the culture, or either side of "the argument." He just... stays out of it as much as possible, and is really slow to develop relationships.
Recent developments with Pix have forced that part of him aside. From the beginning the naga so obviously needed someone to provide some stability in his life that things very quickly snowballed. It helps also to note that this need was not one-sided and Yaxha was finding himself believing that everybody leaves, especially when things get serious, and the only thing he had to show for life was his rundown old bar. Whatever either of them has to say on the matter, they do make an excellent team. And even if Yaxha has become not the most affectionate person and Pix certainly makes up for it, it is equally certain that they care for one another deeply.
Capsules arrived! Pix did not seem very surprised but he's also the one that worries endlessly about their safety. While neither has the experience to know how to be a "good parent," Yaxha is as usual trying to take things in stride.

Isaak Prokhorov
Now owned by irishgirl1017
She may use as much or as little of this information as she wishes.  Prochorus!
The Pernicious -- but
Popular Purple Prince of
Psychosomatic Performances!Name Pronunciation: ee SAH-ahk (eye ZAAK, if you're American) PROH-koh-rohv/PROH-kah-ruhs Origins: originally Greek, notably Russian Meaning: - Isaak: "he laughs" from the biblical story about a man who would kill his own son for a cause - Prokhorov: "leader of the dance" - Prochoros: "leader of the dance" - Isaak's stage name, same meaning of his surname Gachapon Gen/Event: Carnevale della Fine FS#1 Parents/Edition: Unedited Artist: Strawberri Stardust Current Events What: none yet Where: Summary: Relationships Mate: BreanneOwner: irishgirl1017 Met: here || relationship official || capsules (one post) Nature: Lifemated with lovely kids! Status: Two girls, one boy, currently adorable, roly-poly babies. Opinion: She's so adorable~ (he's off in LaLa Land) Offspring: - Alienne (propheticdreams) - Ulianna - Proinsias (irishgirl1017) Name: Nicolette- Owner: Lady Argentum Draconis - Met: outside her wagon ( archived here) - Status: first official meeting (colleagues in the Carneval) - Opinion: She is quite beautiful and intriguing. I see many possibilities for future business endeavors. ^.^ Personality Attitude: He is confusing to understand for many people. Politeness and a code of honor and conduct very effectively conceal any darker attitudes he may feel toward a person or entity. He is a bit of a loose cannon, and may come at odds with his god of choice, on occasion, due to his conflicts of interest. Whether this fortells doom in his future, only time and circumstance (and maybe the god himself) may tell. Likes: to hold a grudge and get revenge in quiet ways; blades (all styles), performing for people, covering his face with a mask Dislikes: being slighted, insulted or betrayed History: Several generations of Isaak's family have been traveling performers. From street musicians and theatre performers to down and dirty freakshow acts, they've done it all. That is not to say that all (or even a majority) of them are miscreants, but some of them have put family survival over pride, and thus while respect for law may be low, respect and loyalty for friends and family are quite high. He will defend any co-worker or cover for them whether or not he likes them, holds a grudge for them, or even hates them. That is why on those times when they see revenge coming from him, most are quite confused or even feel betrayed. Isn't he a back stabber? Isn't he cunning? Isn't he insane? He just has a different code of conduct from them. If they were to ask, he would be more than happy to tell them how he really feels. And the next day after that long awaited betrayal -- all is as it was before, with that smile of his. "Prochoros" is indeed his stage name, an ancient name that is the origination of his surname (and sounds fancier, therefore carries more stage presence). His surname is patronymic and if one is not familiar with this style of naming conventions may be confused by the other members of his family. This "Prince of Psychoscomatic Performances," likes to enrapture his audience to make them "feel" what he is doing on stage, through various techniques. It has nothing to do with powers but everything to do with skill and the audience's perceptions. It uses some of the same concepts as hypnotism, and therefore does not work for everyone. But for those whom it does work, they may feel a great want for repeat performances, going so far as to following the show from town to town. This is his trade, but his favorite performances are sword dancing, and so one may find him juggling various types of blades in his off-times.

Utte Vina  An abused, broken little doll, she

Cheerfully sings of death.

Meaning:
- Utte: feminine form of "Otto," wealth, fortune

Name: Cassius
- Owner: GiinJoww
- Met: (in-shop) near the carnival
- Status: met only briefly
- Opinion: Perhaps it was my imagination, but I feel a vague sense of kinship with him. It is not the mask. But there is something wild and mysterious about him that is difficult to describe. I want to know more about him, or at least to talk with him again.
Name: Ravon
- Owner: Aldrailian
- Met: (in-shop) near the carnival
- Status: She seems to be a protector of sorts for him.
- Opinion: I have only seen one side of him. But... Quite frankly, though he must be fully-grown, he seems like just a sweet little boy to me. I love children...
Personality
Attitude:
Likes: infatuated with Venezia; singing; bright colors, costumes and make-up; babies and entertaining children; gore, pain, death
Dislikes: playing her instruments; being confronted or yelled at (in anger)
History: Ran away from a bad home life at a young age. Though bright-eyed and innocent, it was obvious that she had been damaged somehow. Though she liked flowers and ruffles and small toys, the things that normally bother little girls never phased her. She poked around at dead animals and peered at blood splatter with a critical eye as if it were paint on a canvas. Criticism, taunts, and insults have never bothered her. The only thing that seemed to upset her were raised, angry voices. They made her cringe, or worse, run away crying, only to hide in a small dark place.
One of the few things she will divulge about her life before the carnival is that she was forced to learn several instruments as a child. She loathed music because her parents were so adamant about her learning it, and also obsessed more with the music than their own daughter. However, this was her strongest skill and talent when she came to the carnival, and that was her assigned job. So she learned to love music's many qualities, and many uses. Her storytelling includes song, dance, and musical instruments. When she performs, on tightrope or stage, she sings almost operatically (though nowhere near professional calibre). For the performances of her peers however, she provides the music, even some sound effects, to interesting or eerie effect.
Though she is rather timid and pure to some extent, the atmosphere of Venezia's carnival suits her just fine. It feels homey to her, and even though she knows that some bad fate may befall her at the hand of her god, she welcomes it. She is in love with him. And if she could have just one thing in her whole life it would be to die by his hand or scheme. He was probably the one to persuade her to continue her music making, though to be fair, had he made any positive but off-handed comment about her music, she would have pursued that path most obsessively. That's just the power he has over her.
She would like to be a mommy one day. She is always watching the children, enjoying all of their many expressions, even the tormented ones. She probably would be questionably balanced for the job of raising a child, but any in her care undoubtedly grow up well-suited to carnival life, and love her for it. In the meantime she enjoys entertaining children the most. Sometimes she will pull several random children aside and tell them stories or entertain them in some other way (singing, instrument, dance, tricks, games).
The skull on her cheek is scarification (raised tattoo), and rumor has it, she had it made to artfully hide another scar. She will not discuss it with anyone.

Millisent Napier  That's a mouse sitting in the E-frame cockpit!
Name
Pronunciation: mill-uh-sent nay-pyeer
Origins: ancient Germanic/French
Meaning:
- Millicent: strength, labor/work
- Napier: occupational name for medieval servants responsible for household linens
- Also: she gets her surname from Sean Napier from Exosquad, a leader in the Terran resistance.

Name: Cassius and some other guys (Utte and Ravon)
- Owner: GiinJoww
- Met: at the carnival (started here - will archive later)
- Status: barely "met"
- Opinion: He was fun to taunt. >D Plus he was picking on someone so it was even more fun to give him a bad time. Him and his stupid mask. And that tail looked totally fake. Yeah. >>;
Personality
Attitude: She acts pretty tough. She knows how to stand, walk, and act to keep people on the street from bothering her. As a result, she is not very good at connecting with people. Those whom don't let a tough exterior phase them (or are too easy-going or oblivious), or those who like that kind of exterior, tend to get through her radar. She stands up for the underdog without question but personally trusts very few people. And though she acts tough, she's just a girl who likes girl things on the inside.
Likes: big boots, camo and utility gear; Michelle Rodriguez and Lzzy Hale; graffiti artwork (she's good at it); also pretty good at odd-jobs and building things
Dislikes: To be called Millie. Being backed into a corner or forced to reveal how helpless she really is (or even just feeling that way privately).
History: coming soon

Roberta Jankins  A natural acrobat, born-to-be daredevil
Carnevale della Fine is like a second home
She likens fear to delicious candy,
and mayhem is like fine wine!
Name
Pronunciation: RO-bayr-tuh JAAN-kinz (bob-bee jaax)
Origins: Medieval English
Meaning:
- Bobbie: diminutive of Roberta: feminine of Robert, "bright fame"
- Jacks: diminutive of Jankins: from John, "man"
- So: "bright, famous person," I was thinking in terms of jack-o-lanterns and the bright lights and crowds of a carnival.

- Opinion:
Personality
Attitude: Bobbie Jacks is an energetic and playful sort, and loves to interact with friends or strangers alike. She's a bit like a friendly alley cat, she'll pester you for a while then disappear without warning. Will she return? And while she seems an obvious choice for a normal carnival or circus, how could she possibly fit in with Venezia's crowd? Well, she has no conscience to speak of. While she may be nice to people, she does not really connect pain or suffering with what she does. That part of her brain just... shuts off? She loves the way illusions and hypnosis turn people into willing puppets. And she will watch Dart's knife show secretly hoping she'll miss, not because she wants Dart's job in jeopardy, but because she likes to see the blood and the arc of blood spray, and the strange squirming people do when they are in pain. Oh, I'm sorry, is that strange? Let's talk about something else. Would you like a lolli?
Likes: candy, lights, and everything carnival in general; pumpkins; crazy stunts, acrobatics, speed, danger; blood and gore
Dislikes: Call her Roberta. Try it. Also, she has a few traumas in her past that she's buried deep, the effects may or may not manifest in the future
History: She dresses in colors reminiscent of a pumpkin for a reason. When she was little, her favorite uncle had a farm, and her favorite crop was the pumpkins. She loved the time of harvest, the mucky weather, the chill in the air, the rides on the tractor, the random farmyard kittens, the jack-o-lanterns, the Halloween festivities. She was always a girl for a festival or celebration. She loved to prepare months in advance making little decorations or helping with the crops. Those were the best of times, until her uncle got caught in the combine. Oh... there was blood everywhere. And uncle didn't die. But the farm did.
Spending more time at home, caring for a depressed and angry uncle, she found that she could no longer stand life at home. She had always been a nimble and death-defying little girl (just who do you think pulled her uncle out? All right, she was a bit too young to do it herself, but she tried!). When the circus came to town, she stole away with them, honing her craft until she found Venezia's substantial troupe. And they liked her!
She travels under the stage name Bobbie Jacks so that her uncle will recognize her, should he ever come to see the show. This was his name for her (her parents always called her "Roberta" and she hated it). And he had heard her more than once speak in anger of joining a carnival. She hopes that one day she will see him again, even if it's a glance from the crowd.

Taoma Joshi  Blue little black sheep
when the wagon hit a stone
he fell outside the box and landed on his head.
Nobody noticed.
Name
Pronunciation: taow-muh JOH-shee
Origins: Aramaic, Indian
Meaning:
- Taoma: (also, Thomas) "twin"
- Joshi: an occupational surname meaning "priest," "astrologer," or "fortune teller."
- So? He was one of two twin-like prizes from a torch toss dice game. And, he comes from a family of mystics.

History: Taoma maintains a game booth at Venezia's Carnevale. He has yet to find anything he is particularly good at. His family all but abandoned him on the side of the road because he was less than useless as a fortune teller. He displayed no mystical qualities, and even in a scam he was unable or unwilling to lie to make money. Perhaps it was fortune, fate, or just bad luck that he would end up in a carnival full of so many fantastical people.

Aylin  Smiling without mirth and
lead by the visions of blind oracles,
forever this one is
ambiguous and equivocal.
Name
Pronunciation: eye-lin
Origins: Turkish
Meaning:
- Aylin: "moon halo," feminine name
- So?: Some cultures associate small rodents with the moon. Also, being blind and 'seeing' visions continues the the nighttime and hazy "halo" theme.

What: Met Gypsy (Acy)
Where: in-shop RP (not archived)
Summary: nothing's really happened
_____Gypsy Roma strolled down the dirt paths that made up the Carnival, her hips swaying as she hummed under her breath. More often than not she was lost in her own little world of song and dance, oblivious to the world around her. When she stopped to take a breather she found herself in front of one of the fortune telling booths. "Maybe Venezia is telling me something..." She mused to herself and strolled into the tent.
_____A soft sigh escaped Aylin's lips, the syllable "Ahhh," drawn out like a soft breeze. Long ears do not deceive in these calm conditions: someone passing his booth had stopped, and they had spoken the name of his patron god, Venezia. Perhaps today would not be so boring. Crystal ball nested upon a small pillow in his lap and the fan fluttered. A delicate gloved hand rose up from the table and beckoned Gypsy Roma as she approached his table. "Welcome, madam. Would you care to hear your fortune today?"
_____Gypsy's steps where light and some what cautious. She had not yet grown to trust her fellow workers much let know much about most of them. "Why else am I here? I believe it's a sign from Lord Venezia himself that I had decided to take a rest in front of your tent." Her eyes gazed towards the crystal ball then to the fan. Then to the tea cup of all things. There were a lot of goodies here and she placed her hands behind her back, rocking on her toes a bit to keep her mind preoccupied. Again she began to hum softly.
Aylin listened carefully to the lady. Not just her speech, but everything was interesting to him, in a lethargic way, perhaps. Only the fan fluttered. "Ah, is that so?" came a rather neutral and genderless reply. "It seems to me that perhaps a fortune telling is not the only reason you came today. The Lord of the Carnival works in mysterious ways," this added, with a faint smile. Shifting eyes as they passed from one object to the next could not be discerned behind another set of closed eye lids, but there was a hesitation that could not be mistakened. "Please, do sit and make yourself comfortable. Would you care for a cup of tea?"

Attitude: Aylin tends to make others immediately unwary. She is-- or is it he? What was I saying? While many struggle with that question, Aylin flutters the ever-present fan. Those eyes are forever closed and slanted like the fabled kitsune; are they smiling or are they just shaped that way? More times than not, there is a half-smirk hidden behind the fan. Aylin's whole demeanor seems either patient or bored, always elegant but not quite delicate. Always, always, an air of mystery surrounds Aylin. And there is an ever-present but subtle sense that Aylin has not only seen, but endured, much in life.
Likes: hmm...
Dislikes: oh dear.
History: Very little is known about Aylin, not just Aylin's gender (which is, technically, male). Aylin always speaks, and is referred to, ambiguously, and so perhaps a handful actually know the truth. This is a role not only in the show, but in life, that Aylin has taken up: one of mystery and ambiguity. It suits Aylin just fine, whom has actually come to think of it as a long-running game to be perfected over time.
Aylin forms few, if any, lasting bonds with others. It is hard to say if Aylin views this positively, negatively, or neutrally. There does not seem to be a great deal of wishing or pining from Aylin. Instead, the view is that life is life, and all aspects are to be embraced and savored.
Aylin's "power" is to see visions despite complete blindness. (It has been debated whether Aylin was born that way, or contracted an illness in childhood, no one has been brave enough to ask and persist long enough to get a straight answer.) Perhaps Aylin really is psychic, or perhaps what Aylin really has is an astute brain and keen imagination. It is certain, and has been admitted to, that Aylin can memorize any path once traveled just once. A very detailed (if not exactly accurate) picture forms in Aylin's mind. In this same way Aylin can "read" people by their reactions. The more controlled the environment, the more accurately their movements and emotions can be read.

Attitude: About all I've figured out about her is that she is very limber and graceful, has a generally polite but sharp tongue, and is ladylike. She works in promotional aspects of the carnival, such as passing out fliers, drawing in guests, passing through the crowd as a guide, etc. (haven't decided on a specialty)
