Character's Cert: Characters Name: Hahalua Character's Current Personality: Despite raising herself and often having nightmares of fires, Haha is a loving, bright, happy, chipper strong and quick minded mare. At her core is a center of love and she dishes it out in spades. But one must remember who she is and where she comes from. A warrior born and bred is not be trifled with lightly. Character's Current History: When Haha was a young foal there was a fire that leveled her village, killed her mother and grandparents and separated her from her father and brother who she presumes dead. She fled the fire and was forced to raise herself from that point onward. She'd always liked water and since it was the extract opposite of the fire that haunted her nightmares, she took residence by the ocean, taking comfort in the sound, wet and wildness of the sea. There she stayed teaching herself her own ways of life and trying to remember and practice the teachings of defense and war from her father and grandfather. Until one day a very special eagle greeted her and brought her news that her brother might still be alive. How Does Your Character Get Cursed? Haha is on a long journey to find her long lost big brother. She is surprisingly naive and trusting. Falsely believing everyone has some amount of good in them. It wouldn't be hard to make her believe the power is meant to bless her in some way, not curse her into a killing machine. How Will Their Personality Change? A part of herself that Haha staunchly ignores is the loneliness that would over take her if she let it. Loneliness and long buried and never truly dealt with grief. The powder would bring this too the foreground. And now that she knows her brother still lives, this would eventual twist into blame and a sick obsession with causing grief in others. Especially her family. How Will It Effect Their Current Plots & Story? I'm not sure what to do with her right now. She was neede plot wise for one thing, digging her brother out of his deep depression. Once she does that I have no plans for her except maybe finding her a lifemate and having her settle down. But what's a family without a crazy? Character development for everyone! OOCly -- Why Do You Want Them Cursed? Haha is rather a cute and loving but stagnant character. Useful for moving my story along and getting her brother back to himself but...well she'll probably never have her own story unless I give her one. Cursed walked bent on tormenting her family is definitely a story and purpose of her own. Any Other Relevant Information You'd Like Us To Know? If You Win, What Pelt Would You Choose?

Get Down With the Sickness
Character's Cert: Characters Name: Ahmri Enzi Character's Current Personality: As of right now, Ahmri is crazed, on the hunt for blood any chance he can get. He is not as strong as he'd like to be, however, so he isn't always successful, and therefore must choose his victims carefully. He's more or less attacking those who seem happy with their home life - perhaps it's because he's never felt that? Of course he'd never admit it, but it's safe to say that was a driving force behind his decision to destroy so long ago. His mother had been a loving mare, but he had been taken from her and taken from that love that would have been his. Now he's out for revenge. Character's Current History: Before being cursed, Ahmri had always been twisted and evil, and loved the thrill that came with killing. He was raised by his older sister to become a killer, and did so with pleasure. After watching his father die by the hands of his brother, his personality broke even further, and instead of just taking the life of another for the thrill, he craved it. It became a part of him, and without it, he couldn't go on. Blood and death had surrounded him at every angle of his life. Prior to the death of his father, as a foal, Ahmri had been raised to believe that power was the most important thing a creature could have, and to get power, one must be as corrupt & as twisted as possible - Giorgia had foreseen it that way since the moment she stole him as a tiny foal. He knows no other life - he knows not what love feels like, nor does he care to know. His sister had never loved him, and his parents had never truly known him, so he lived to please the one thing he felt gave him life - the power his sister had over so many others - her ability to manipulate. How Does Your Character Get Cursed? It happened almost by accident - he knew of the rumors, of the stories of those who wield such endless power, but he had never stumbled upon it. Ahmri had lived with the knowledge, for so long, that if only he could catch it, it could be his as well. When his number had been called, he welcomed the power with open arms. This was, after all, exactly what his life had been leading toward. But exactly what it did to him, however, had been rather...unexpected. How Will Their Personality Change? The thirst for blood will no longer just be a craving, but a need. Without it, he'd lose his ability to think or to reason. After becoming cursed, the corpse within him will drive him further into insanity, deeper than he could have ever imagined the power could take him. It will be a game to him now, this killing, and he will tear about his victims like a crazed, starving madman. How Will It Effect Their Current Plots & Story? It will help me to bring the story I had written (in my head so very long ago) to a close - in a way. There are still some things to measure and flesh out, but Ahmri as a skinwalker would help finally push it to where it needs to go. He'll seek out his sister, his mother, and his brothers, and want to taste their flesh between his teeth as he listened to them beg for mercy. Oh! His sister, his beloved evil sister, begging him for her life? How pathetic! The brother that had been lucky enough to stay behind and be raised by their mother? He wants his blood the most. It would also pave the way for me to take his character in another direction - a 'guide' of lost souls - those looking for family members of their own. Of course, this would be a ploy to toy with his prey - take on the weak and the helpless first, then go after those they longed to see. OOCly -- Why Do You Want Them Cursed? Since long before Ahmri had come to fruition (so I'd say probably 2011?), I had planned on having a skinwalker become part of the family, since it would work perfectly into the plots that have been so important to me. Long story short, Ahmri's father had been killed and since Ahmri had watched it happen, a switch had been flipped, and I haven't touched his character since - I don't want to do anything with him until after I get him as a cursed skinwalker. xP It's just, what I've always dreamed. I'd also love to toy with my ability to roleplay with such a character, as I do plan on having him be as RPed as I can manage, and I'd love a challenge. Any Other Relevant Information You'd Like Us To Know? I haven't really written a lot of what this plot was supposed to be (considering those involved got busy, including myself, and it just never came about) but it's rather extensive, and an opportunity like this is a dream come true! Honestly! This had always been where I imagined the plot going, and I would be honored to be able to continue it further. Ahmri Enzi's father is ICly already dead, and his sister will soon be as well, her death caused by a completely separate event. Ahmri will be on the hunt for Giorgia, and once he learns of her death, he will be angry that chance was taken from him and go after the one responsible for her death. You don't mess with his victims. If I get this, I may do some OOC/non-canon backplotting that I so desperately want. xP If You Win, What Pelt Would You Choose? Please pick one! Bear, please!

Get Down With the Sickness Character's Cert:
Characters Name: Boum'Ba
Character's Current Personality: Boum'ba or more commonly known as Bam is a very aloof person. It's not as if he doesn't care or wants to be mean spirited it's just Bam often is too lazy to be bothered to do anything.
He can be arsed to get up and come out of his cave if dragged by the right people. At that point if the situation is dire enough he will gladly lay down his life to protect his loved ones. Which, since he has been trained from birth by his mother in the art of warfare is normally enough to ward off any major threat. If you have managed to get Bam to attack, you know you have done goofed.
Bam does have soft spots for the people closest in his life. They are few and far between but he loves nothing more than to sit and watch the world go into chaos with his loved ones. The everyday matters and drama played out across the land is sort of like a sit-com to Bam. While he adores to watch it, he does tend to avoid ever getting tangled up in it and is more likely to bounce if someone approaches him with any issue. He doesn't care if they are a small child dying, or a mare who's heart was just broken. Bam has no time to deal with that stuff personally.
Like the rest of his family Bam takes pleasure in murder and torture. He is a avid hunter and has a large collection of rotting corpses in his home at all times. For him killing is a hobby, a every day part of life. It's something he's mastered since a child and will often have to find new and more gruesome ways to extend out the suffering of his victim just to entertain himself.
Character's Current History: Currently Bam is just coming into his own. His mother has finished teaching him warfare and the history of their religion (Voodoo) she fully expects him to take on the role of protector of their family and shaman that 'talks' to the spirits to gain favors. Bam has found the love of his life with Winky, and is very content in their lazy life together.
It is until his grandfather takes a turn for the worse on summer. The family on his mother's side is plagued with a flesh eating disease which they think is caused by the Loa. Bam is taking a more scientific approach and wanting to try different methods other than just severe praying to try and cure his family of their curse.
Only problem is that Bam already is starting to lose himself as the diease has worked it's way into his brain..
How Does Your Character Get Cursed? On his search for a cure Bam will have heard of this powder that revives Soquili into a new, darker life. Figuring that already his family is pretty evil and dark Bam goes on the hunt for this powder. He does eventually find some near the corpse tree. Gathering it up Bam headed off back home with his find in tow, hoping to save his grandfather.
However what he doesn't understand is how the powder works. In his hasty gathering Bam inhaled a good chunk of the deadly powder. On his trip back home he slowly descends into madness as he's forever changed from the inside out.
How Will Their Personality Change? Bam will become a wild animal. Between the changing and his brain being eaten away he hardly will be able to function outside of the basic needs. He will be a monster who's inner desires drive him to maim, kill, and inflict as much harm on anything he can catch.
He will have no remorse or moral guide left. The family that he once wanted to protect with his life now he has a twisted obsession on destroying.
How Will It Effect Their Current Plots & Story? It won't really effect much since this was the path he was already going down. It'll just enhance his downward spiral into madness and show even more just how far he's fallen. His plots already were pretty dark and him being a skinwalker honestly fits perfectly!
For example his lifemating was plotted to be broken by tragedy already with him being so mentally unstable that when he does come home Bam snaps on Winky, maiming her horribly and almost killing her.
His family already have agreed that they need to be his 'watchers'. Making sure that he doesn't get too bad into trouble. If needed his brother Nidhogg will be willing to put his brother down.
Plots after that are kinda up in the air. He most likely will be messing with the family and any future offspring that pops out. He'll think that killing them is the only way to fully cure them of their curse.
OOCly -- Why Do You Want Them Cursed? I have never owned a skinwalker or purewalker before though I have always been interested in the lore behind them. Bam to me fits really nicely in to becoming one and I want a chance to play around with a being who is so devoted to evil!
Any Other Relevant Information You'd Like Us To Know? I fully understand the limitations and requirments behind skinwalkers/purewalkers? Other than that uh, yay evil zombie dragons? 8D'

Get Down With the Sickness
Character's Cert: Characters Name: Midnight's Whisper Character's Current Personality: Currently Midnight's personality has shifted from manipulative to rather unstable. The shift in personality comes as a result of an intense jealousy that she feels for the newest members of her family. Before she would toy with the emotions of others and revel in the power that she seemed to hold over them. Character's Current History: Midnight's Whisper was always her father's favourite. He taught her his ways when she was growing up and she felt like she was getting preferential treatment (and she was). Dradneos saw Midnight's Whisper as his own little protege and he often ignored the rest of his children to teach her all that he knew. It caused Midnight to believe that she was better than everyone else and Dradneos did nothing to deter her from thinking that way.
When Midnight saw the baskets that Echo's Song had found after wishing on the star she was indifferent to the idea of more siblings. However once Dradneos began paying more attention to the miracle children that is when Midnight's mind literally snapped. She was being ignored for the first time and she found herself wishing that her brothers would come to an early demise. It is how she is thinking even now.
Midnight's Whisper has seemingly gone off the deep end when it comes to her "miracle" siblings. She's made a pact with a purewalker to eliminate them from her life as she cannot do so without maintaining an act of innocence for her parents. Essentially at the moment she wants her parents to remain clueless on just how much she intensely hates Castor's Lament and Centari's Melody. How Does Your Character Get Cursed? The main way that I feel this could be played out is that Midnight hears of corpse powder and actively searches out a source of the powder. This would display just how far she is willing to go to destroy her family from within. She doesn't care that the powder will completely subvert her personality she believes that it will be the only option open to her. She'll also feel no need to honour her agreement with anyone else once the transformation is completed. How Will Their Personality Change? Besides being bloodthirsty I don't see Midnight's personality completely becoming radically different. She will still have an extreme desire to sow misery amongst her family by attempting many times to kill her brothers. She might even toy with her regular siblings just to cause general chaos. Her mind will be constantly weighing the results of her actions and logging them. Her method of tracking down WS gifts will become more refined. She'll kill with a sort of savage grace. How Will It Effect Their Current Plots & Story? As of right now the only real current plot I have with Midnight's Whisper is that of the deal she has made with a purewalker to destroy her brothers from the Wishing Star. The plot essentially concluded for now until Midnight hears back from whether or not the attack on Castor's Lament was successful or not.
If Midnight were to end up cursed though I could see her taking power into her own hooves to see that at least part of her familial line suffer for what she views as betrayal. She would not have to resort to striking deals with outsiders. Her own claws would suffice in her mission. She would feel no loyalty to abide by the terms in which she struck with the purewalker.
For future plots I could see Midnight's Whisper learn of even more Wishing Star siblings in the family and try to sense out how Echo and Dradneos feel about them. She would most likely try to destroy them as well. But if there was a chance that she could essentially brainwash one into becoming a minion she would try that approach. The third option is try to "buddy" up to one of the new children and "act nice" in order to keep information flowing.
For general plots I could see Midnight's Whisper develop a special skill set in tracking down those whom have "been sent" from the wishing star and tangle with them. Given how she feels about her parents wishes coming true it is likely she would lash out at other "special" Soquili. Although she would be wise in who she picks fights with. OOCly -- Why Do You Want Them Cursed? The idea of cursing Midnight's Whisper came after a self rp I did between Midnight and one of her brothers (Castor's Lament). The idea never faded and has only cemented itself in my mind.
I've always seen Midnight's Whisper as an extremely jealous mare. Being deemed the favourite since birth gave her a feeling akin to being "immortal". That feeling lasted well into her adult years. Now she's been dealt a blow that has knocked her off the pedestal in which she believed would always be hers with the arrival of baskets from the Wishing Star. An intense malice for these "impostors" has resulted in her spiralling down a deep hole that I just don't see her climbing back out of. I cannot see anyone who would be able to get Midnight back on a path that could lead to acceptance of her siblings. Knowing this it seems that the only path left to take would be a physical manifestation of the evil that is growing stronger with every passing day in Midnight's mind. Any Other Relevant Information You'd Like Us To Know? I know and abide by the rules set by the shop regarding skinwalkers.
Character's Cert: Characters Name: Psychosis Character's Current Personality: Psychosis is a bit "broken." He tends to ramble on, rarely if ever making sense. He has a horrible memory, sometimes not even remembering events that happened just five minutes ago. Sometimes he can remember things that happened years ago while not being able to remember what he ate just hours before. Despite this, there are times he can present himself as normal, even with a tangible memory, if he has someone he trusts nearby. He's rarely rude, and usually more innocent sounding and scared, despite his towering build. Sadly, even trust isn't enough to stop his violent outbreaks he sometimes finds himself having, for what seems like no reason at all. Outbreaks he never remembers, only wakes up from to see the aftermath. Character's Current History: Psychosis isn't trusting of others, and generally travels alone. Always has. He has a sibling he hasn't interacted much with, and likely doesn't know much about at all. Currently plot wise, the rare times he has some sort of memory recognition he knows he's scared, hurt, and likely to hurt others. He's trying to stay as far away from people as possible, even if people are the one thing that helps his personality become more tame. While he hides from others, he knows deep down he needs to find a way to find someone that can help him control himself. How Does Your Character Get Cursed? Psychosis has always had nightmares. The few times he does remember who he is, he generally fears himself more than he fears anything else. He fears him hurting someone. When he comes across a skinwalker and their territory, he won't view it as a monster... he doesn't know of any except himself. When the skinwalker plays the part of the innocent Psychosis will fall for it, and try to run away... only to be chased down. Even if he snaps and fights back he won't have the strength to win. How Will Their Personality Change? From a generally mild mannered, but slightly crazy stallion will emerge this ruthless killer. He likely will still have memory issues, but that would only make his new power even more unpredictable and scary. His violent outbursts would be less "random" and untriggered, and instead be more common and a true part of him. How Will It Effect Their Current Plots & Story? Since Psychosis is generally tame except when he has a random episode, him being stalked by a skinwalker is not likely something that would end well. Even if he DID manage to fight back, he would lose to his stalker, and lose himself completely to the void. He'll never find a savior, never find someone to help him become more normal. His quest to find a savior would end, and cause him to become the monster he always feared he would become. OOCly -- Why Do You Want Them Cursed? Honestly? I generally like fairytales. Happy fairytails where in rp everything ends nicely and never goes wrong. For once, I kind of want to see what happens when all hope is lost, and where there is no coming back from what they've done. He won't be the scared, hurt boy .. trying to avoid people in order to protect them from himself.. he'd be a killer. He never asked for it, what little hope he had would be taken from him by force. And I want to be able to rp something like that. Any Other Relevant Information You'd Like Us To Know? If You Win, What Pelt Would You Choose? Please pick one! Bat

Character's Cert: Characters Name: Whisper Character's Current Personality: She's a bit nervous and jumpy thanks to a traumatizing event that happened to her in the semi-recent past, and she tends to speak softly, hence her name. Character's Current History: She had amnesia thanks to the traumatizing event and forgot a lot of things. She's recently been recovering her memory, though she still can't remember her real name (Whisper not being it). She's seeking her friend, who she was separated from when she escaped the situation she was in. How Does Your Character Get Cursed? It's entirely possible that the soquili who hurt her and turned her into what she is already (her appearance being ICly caused by having been experimented on), found her again and doused her with the powder, just to see if it might work differently on one who has been 'touched' by him. How Will Their Personality Change? Her whispers become hisses and she turns into a vicious murderer with a particular thirst for the flesh of 'her own'. She also still seeks her friend, but of course now her intentions are the opposite of benign. How Will It Effect Their Current Plots & Story? It would change her from a victim into a murderer, but all it would really change is that she will no longer be lifemated to her friend as I had originally planned. She doesn't have much plot otherwise since she's skittish. OOCly -- Why Do You Want Them Cursed? Because the 'traumatizing event' was done to her by a skinwalker who likes to experiment with his prey and eat them when he's finished, so it would be kind of interesting to turn her basically into the thing that hurt her.

Character's Cert: Characters Name: Ozzie Character's Current Personality: Ozzie is innocent. As innocent as a newborn foal, Ozzie has attempted to make friends with every living being she's come across, and this has included some rather nasty creatures. Despite getting knocked around a few times, she's remained the same throughout her life; Kind, overly caring, gentle and curious. It's been wondered by her family if she's 'wrong' in the head, and her only remaining son, Kei, has taken it upon himself to keep her out of harm's way, since she likes to willingly step there. Character's Current History: Ozzie was born to a skinwalker mother, and a completely clueless father. Her basket was damaged by her mother, which may have contributed to her, er, odd ways. As she got older, she only became more curious, more trusting, but wisdom did not follow. Born unto her were three foals that she now no longer sees due to losing their baskets at some point. Later, she met a kind stallion, Momiji, and fell in love with him. Well, the closest kind of love she can feel. To them, three sons were born. Of them, only one remains, trying desperately to protect her while her beloved Momiji is absent. How Does Your Character Get Cursed? She tried to make friends with someone who had no intention of being her friend. Trust can only go so far. How Will Their Personality Change? Not very. Ozzie will remain curious and innocent. 'Innocent' here meaning 'Why is this creature screaming? I'm only having fun' when she rips it apart. From sweet and saccharine to cutely bloodthirsty. You know those child murderers? The little girls with pretty hair and white dresses splattered with blood while holding a knife saying 'Why won't you play with me'? Here's the song that's inspired most of what Ozzie will become~ How Will It Effect Their Current Plots & Story? Ozzie will turn from being the mare her closest family tries so hard to protect, to being the mare that they all fear. Her fixation will be mostly on her son, Kei, tailing him everywhere, her ties to her own blood twisting into a thirst for that same blood. 'Why won't you play with me anymore, Kei~?' OOCly -- Why Do You Want Them Cursed? As soon as I got Ozzie way back when, I knew from the moment I saw her eyes that I wanted her to be cursed like her mother. I love characters that are sweet and innocent, taking them and twisting them. I haven't played her for a long while, despite being my second favorite soq, because I'm adamant about her becoming a skinwalker. As much as I crave happy ending for all of my Soq, Ozzie is one I do not, cannot, and will not mind diverging from that path, just because I would have so much fun playing her. Plus...I reallyreallyreallyreally want a purewalker one day and Cursed!Ozzie will ease me into getting a brand new evil sonuvvagun someday~ (Not to mention, have you seen her eyes? Imagine those eyes staring at you from under a pelt...) Any Other Relevant Information You'd Like Us To Know? I've been ready to play a skinwalker since day one, I know what is expected of them and am fully prepared for the consequences regarding lifemating breakage. -nod- If You Win, What Pelt Would You Choose?

Usdia still cannot be cursed. I'll add that as a reminder that the rules still apply.
No angeni can be cursed, or those who have obvious angeni traits. . . No usdia. No mers. No seathi. No hippogryphs.
The canon reason at present is they're simply immune to the corpse powder, just like the hippogryphs. It's not made to curse them, and Oyahusa's recipe simply doesn't work on them. There are just some species that presently cannot be cursed, and likely won't be getting cursed.

Reasons I shouldn't try to set up an event while sick.
I think it's no . . . but I asked Mindsend to confirm. The reason is the same reason we don't allow hippo'gryphs and mutant hippo'gryphs -- confusion over them looking too much like purewalkers and being difficult to distinguish.
But as I'm not 100%, I've asked for confirmation, and will let you know if I'm mistaken.

Character's Cert:Uncert Naked || Uncert Clothed Characters Name: Agares Character's Current Personality: This can be as long or short as you'd like. Character's Current History: Agares had a rocky beginning. His father had left his family for reasons unknown before Agares had ever left his basket. He suffered an accident as a foal that robbed him of his color vision and caused him to have hallucinations that made him believe he sees the dead (he still holds firm to this belief). Before he was even fully grown his mother left on a quest to find his wayward father, fearing for his safety. Agares grew up alone, talking to the dead souls he believed he saw all around him. He eventually lifemated and had five children, but even his lifemate and most of his children left him. His mother eventually returned without his father, but their relationship is strained. He acquired a familiar who helps him with his loneliness. How Does Your Character Get Cursed? He "sees" dead spirits all around him and sometimes has trouble distinguishing them from reality. It would be easy to find some murdered victims and sort of wonder at them, leaving himself exposed and vulnerable. How Will Their Personality Change? He will dive even deeper into madness, hallucinating more vividly and having even more trouble determining reality from fantasy. His color blindness will turn out to be mostly psychological from his traumatic past, but even with the change into a skinwalker he won't regain it fully - he will only be able to see red. As such, he will seek out prey to splatter their blood around. How Will It Effect Their Current Plots & Story? He's already a loner, keeping only the company of his familiar mostly. In a way, becoming a skinwalker would make him more social, if only for the desire to see others' blood. His plots have been a bit stagnant since his mate left years ago and he really hasn't had much going on with him. OOCly -- Why Do You Want Them Cursed? I've always felt he was struggling with some very serious mental issues and pain inside. I feel like logically this would make for a very interesting twist in his story, and one that might help his mother step up, as she'd probably try to save any future children he would have. Any Other Relevant Information You'd Like Us To Know? I know these aren't customs but.... I actually really like the idea of Daeva sacrificing herself to him in his changed state.... dying to become his pelt. Obviously optional, but it's an idea! If You Win, What Pelt Would You Choose?

Character's Cert: Characters Name: Nadezhda Character's Current Personality: When Nade is calm, she is the epitome of a princess. Nade is well-spoken, noble, warm, and loving. She very much prefers to stay this way. However, when her heart rate goes up, there is another personality that takes over. The second personality is more sultry and devious. Nade doesn't have a name for her second personality but just calls it 'Her' or 'She'. Although others do not remember, Nade's noble personality knows when the demonic personality takes over. The demonic side also knows when 'She' is not in control. Basically, there are two 'identities' in one body. Character's Current History: The second personality was discovered one day when she was running away from a herd trying to harm her family. They had made threats and called them demonic, but Nade didn't know why until the night she was run out of her home. Her heart pounded in her chest it felt although it was unbearable. That was the night she found out what was 'demonic' about her family. She had been so sheltered and peaceful with her herd she never knew the 'second' part living inside of her. How Does Your Character Get Cursed? Nade was slowly losing control of her body. Before, she would keep calm through meditation. When Nade first lost control, it would only be a few minutes at most. When 'She' went in search of the corpse powder, 'She' dominated for closer to an hour. 'She' took her time and secretly led Nade closer to where she would be able to get the corpse powder. 'She' wanted to get rid of Nadezhda completely. How Will Their Personality Change? Ultimately, she would lose her noble side. 'Nade' will cease to exist and 'She' will take over. I currently don't have a second name, but 'Nadezhda' would be scratched out and replaced with her new name. How Will It Effect Their Current Plots & Story? She's been 'researched' before and has one breeding lined up. I had initially been planning for her to be 'good' and help out families, but with her cursing, 'She' would be more entertained trying to find the darkness in others, even if it meant revealing her past. It's possible she'll also hunt down her first batch of kids (since she'll have them pre-cursing). OOCly -- Why Do You Want Them Cursed? There's no real OOC reason. I knew one of her side would eventually take over, but it seemed more fun to have her demonic side take over than her good. Okay, so fun seems to be the OOC reason.

Character's Cert: Characters Name: Orpheus Character's Current Personality: Overall Orpheus is of the very trusting type, always willing to lend a hand, offer an ear to listen, and to help others in their time of need. He enjoys this to the extent that sometimes he can be too trusting, a bit gullible. He doesn’t like to see the bad side of things. And others have taken advantage of him for it. Whether it be for healing or to get something else. That said, Orpheus continues to keep a smile on his face and continues to live life to the fullest. He does whatever he can to not let others bring him down. Character's Current History: Orpheus is a cousin of Hallows Bane. When they were young both would train together, well, more like Hallows trained and Orpheus would train by healing him. They became quite close to say the least. However, Hallows was always the shining star of the herd, and Orpheus continued to be cast in Hallows’ shadow. His young self would get jealous sometimes and upset when Hallows was praised and he was not. And Hallows would remind him that he’d be nothing without Orpheus. He would tell Orpheus that he would be nothing without Orpheus’ gift of healing. To that end Orpheus continued to stay by Hallows side and would offer a lending ear when necessary.
When Hallows was lost to the herd Orpheus felt lost. The herd, whom had many casualties due to the walkers, was fairly scattered. Orpheus was one of the few healers that had made it out of the mountains alive. His master had died protecting him. So, Orpheus unknowingly followed Hallows outside into the immediate Kawani lands. Little did either colt know but they were never too far distant from each other. In fact, their bond was strong enough to keep Orpheus nearby, however neither of them would see each other. When they became adults Orpheus saw Hallows again for the first time in years. Unfortunately Hallows never remembered who Unicorn was, and Orpheus was hurt. Orpheus could remember everything, and Hallows had changed drastically over the years. The unicorn wasn’t sure what to think. So, when Hallows came across Nymphalidae, Orpheus took off confused.
It was during this time he met a mare that caught his attention, and if Hallows could find a mate, so could Orpheus. And so began his desire to be just as equal to Hallows, to match mare for mare, world for world. Little did Orpheus realize but the mare he had fallen for didn’t want to stay, and took off shortly after their encounter. Hurt again, anger slowly began seeping into Orpheus’ veins. And it was then that Orpheus met his first skinwalker since he was a young colt. She used his anger to fuel her own plans, her own desires; she kept him as her pet. He has let her do this, for in some respects he has become interested in learning how she harbors such darkness within her soul. Setting the stage for something much darker to come into his life. How Does Your Character Get Cursed? Through his encounter with the skinwalker Rime he learns of this shaman that can create strength through the darkness. Although terrified of what it could mean, Orpheus is conflicted on whether or not to seek this shaman out. Rime will continue to plant seeds of doubt and anger into Orpheus’ ear, and when she leaves him after he gives her hellions of her own, Orpheus will be slowly dipping into madness himself. This is when he will meet Raven, a kalona mare who isn’t quite stable herself. It is during this time he will start to climb back out of the darkness temporarily. However, when he loses Raven, who he truly did love, that temporary reprieve will be destroyed. And when he sees that Hallows is now thriving with his own mate, children, and friends, it will push Orpheus over.
This is when he will seek out the shaman for strength. He will want to prove that he is just as strong, if not stronger than Hallows himself. The Shaman will use this to his advantage, telling him that if he finds an owl, he will have something Hallows could never achieve, and the power to see all. Orpheus will remember that Hallows’ wings were stunted when he was still a child, and will feel the sprouting of vindictiveness within his body. He will be able to see and feel the clouds while Hallows could not. So, Orpheus will seek out this owl, follow the instructions for how to process it, to keep it intact for the spell the Shaman will weave.
When this is done Orpheus will return to the Shaman, not realizing what will actually happen to him. The Shaman will tell him to rest within the hallow bark of a large oak tree. And during the night the Shaman will promise he will wake up a new stallion. The transformation will be soul shattering for Orpheus. It will tear him apart from the inside out. How Will Their Personality Change? Orpheus will have one thing in mind when the change is complete, revenge. Revenge on everyone who has ever hurt him. He will want to find Rime and kill her, for she never told him that this change was permanent. Rime always told him that the transformation was one of the best things she had ever gone through, that it was a beautiful feeling and that she could always take off her pelt. Orpheus will realize that this was a lie, and will abhor her for it. He will feel a deep rooted anger at Hallows, and anger that is years old, going back to their childhood. He will use this anger to drive him to kill, to drink the blood of someone who used to be family. He will continuously have a thirst for blood and death. He has a desire to bring the true death to anyone who crosses his path. He will use his horn for killing now, forever tainted by the curse set upon him. HE will be ruler supreme. HE will never let anyone walk all over him again. How Will It Effect Their Current Plots & Story? ~ It is planned that Orpheus will have children by the time of his cursing. Many now living with Hallows. Hallows will know the truth of what has happened to his cousin, and will have a confrontation. This is where Orpheus will try to strike Hallows down in complete anger. This will be a long term plot. ~ Orpheus will “work” with Asmodeus to help corrupt Hallow’ daughter Njola into the darkness. Orpheus’ goal will be to curse Njola as well. This will fail and Orpheus had not intended for Asmodeus to take Njola on as a mate. ~ He will work to find Rime again and try to kill her. ~ Raven, his true love now buried within the ground, Orpheus will desecrate her grave. Cursing her soul to hell for leaving him. This is where he will realize his desire to tear soulmates apart. To feel his pain. OOCly -- Why Do You Want Them Cursed? I never really had many plots for Orpheus, at least, nothing concrete. When things began happening for him, meeting Rime and a few others, did his character start to actually talk to me. Quite frankly I was surprised when he told me that this was going to be his storyline. I hadn’t intended for my first unicorn to be cursed. But the more he spoke to me, and the more I spoke with those own Rime and Raven, the more I realized that Orpheus wasn’t going to give me much choice. To me, this will expand Orpheus’ storyline in a direction that I haven’t really gone to before. While I do have Abbadon, my purewalker, it’s another thing entirely to play a cursedwalker. It’ll be a really fun avenue to pursue once it happens. Any Other Relevant Information You'd Like Us To Know? Nothing that I can think of at the moment. Merry Christmas and Happy New Years guys! biggrin If You Win, What Pelt Would You Choose? Please pick one! Owl

Get Down With the Sickness
Character's Cert: Characters Name: Briscoe
Character's Current Personality: Briscoe doesn't handle reasoning very well and cannot be considered intelligent. This wouldn't be such a bad thing except he is under the influence of his companion Dabney, an egocentric, scheming lizard. He doesn't realize that the lizard isn't caring for him with the best of intentions.
Briscoe loves the small things in life; sun on his flanks, flowers in bloom and meeting new friends. He doesn't have any ambitions and idly let's Dabney direct where they go and what they do. Without the lizard though, he gets panicky. He starts to shake and will either shut down completely, not moving, or he will just run any which way. Luckily Dabney knows what happens when he's out of eyesight of the stallion and the farthest he ventures is up to the trees to scout out. Usually the lizard rides on Briscoe's head, so he can whisper instructions into the stallions ears. Briscoe also gets confused easily, especially when something unexpected happens, so sitting behind his ears is ideal for the lizard, as he can grab the ears and maneuver the stallion if needed.
Dabney on the other hand, is extremely intelligent; however he only utilizes his mental prowess to benefit himself. Whether it's to get food, stay warm or be protected, he uses Briscoe as a means of survival. After the day to day grind, his goal is to get through the A-ta-lv-yi Pass to the badlands. He has never been there, but when he was young other lizards told him of the wonders across the mountains. Ideally he'd like to live a life of luxury across the mountains, with other lizards and soq to do his bidding for him while he spends the day lazing around in the sun.
Character's Current History: Briscoe's earliest memory is of Dabney. When he emerged from his basket the lizard was the first thing he saw. Dabney has since been his mentor, his guide and his manipulator; teaching Briscoe only as much as he wanted the stallion to know. So everything Briscoe has done in his life has been supervised and advised from the lizard, for the lizard's benefit. Currently the duo wander the western forest and plains, though Dabney is always pondering ways to get across the mountains.
How Does Your Character Get Cursed? Once rumor made it to Dabney of a powder that could grant soq the form of a creature, with superior ferocity and power; he made it his quest to find it. If he could enhance Briscoe, and use him as a protector / enforcer, perhaps his ambitions could expand to more than just survival. Perhaps Briscoe could carve out an area of the desert just for the two of them, or better yet, intimidate more soq into being their servants. Dabney manages to find some of the powder after an extensive search and some shady deals. When Dabney has it in his possession he tells the stallion to hold still (and Briscoe does, like usual) while he spreads the corpse powder over him.
How Will Their Personality Change? Briscoe will retain his mental ineptitude but now he will have the ferocity and savagery to take on anything that gets in his way. Where he used to appreciate the sun on his flanks, he now enjoys the moon's cold face. Flowers are no longer useful and crushed beneath his hooves, and friends are now food. Briscoe turns more than slightly crazy, and now if he gets confused he just blindly attacks. Only his affection and trust in Dabney remain unchanged. He continues to let the lizard guide him, for a time anyway. All too soon, another voice, one that only Briscoe can hear, starts to give him conflicting advice...
How Will It Effect Their Current Plots & Story? It will help progress their plot nicely. Currently they are stuck in the western forest / plains. Once cursed, I'm thinking it will be easy for Briscoe to "motivate" a few others (soq or fams) to help cross the mountain range with them and set up an area in the badlands. From there, I'd like Briscoe's deteriorating mental condition to separate the duo...and Dabney to have to find a way to reclaim his evil pawn. (Edit: In which he won't succeed, cause Briscoe will be too far gone for that. I have other ideas on what I want pure evil Briscoe to get up to. At the same time I'd like Dabney to go on the "quest" to retrieve the stallion and failing that [Dab's plan backfire ftw], to try and find himself a replacement pawn. With Briscoe MIA all the soq / familiars they brought across the mountains will have no reason to stay and will take off at the first opportunity.)
OOCly -- Why Do You Want Them Cursed? Mainly for the plot / IC reason. Although I currently don't own a skinwalker / purely evil soq so it would be fun to branch into that personality avenue.
Any Other Relevant Information You'd Like Us To Know? I really enjoy the form name for this, wahahaha! Otherwise, I know the rules / requirements / restrictions on walkers.
If You Win, What Pelt Would You Choose? Please pick one! Owl or New Fox..cause they eat lizards and it would benefit Dabney to have of them on his side. (If you can't join them, beat them xD)

Character's Cert:
Characters Name:
Sugar Pie
Character's Current Personality:
Sugar Pie is currently physically and mentally broken, and she's attempting to put herself back together. While she is still sweet to those that show her kindness, she trusts no one and is quick to curl up into a defensive ball or flee upon any sign of physical aggression.
Character's Current History:
Sugar grew up with a loving family and a twin sister that meant the world to her. In her adolescent years she mistakenly entered a deal with a seemingly good-natured Ulun'suti named Lux Flamma. Sugar wanted to win the heart of a stallion that she was sweet on, but she was too shy to initiate anything on her own. Lux smiled and said that she would help in exchange for a favor down the line. Sugar agreed. The next morning Sugar woke up surrounded by Lux and a few members of her crew. Lux had something bloody in her mouth and she tossed it at Sugar's hooves.
"I won you his heart. It's all yours now - don't you want a taste?"
That was the start of Sugar's personal hell. She had nightmares of that day and of Lux coming back to collect on the favor. Eventually the nightmares faded and Sugar thought she was safe. And, of course, that was when Lux returned.
"I saw a mare that looked just like you today,"
Sugar could hear the obvious threat in the 'Suti's words. She threw herself at Lux's hooves.
"Please, I will do anything. Just don't harm my sister. Please!" she sobbed.
Lux tilted her head back and thought for a bit. "Hmm, if you serve me for the rest of your days, I will leave your lovely twin to her perfect life. But if you ever think of disobeying me, I'll pay her and her family a special visit,"
Sugar Pie has been a prisoner in Lux's herd of horrendous thieves and killers ever since. Like the other prisoners, she is a personal punching bag and slave, and she is only treated with kindness by her fellow captives. Her only friend in life is another prisoner, Malenki, who often takes care of her when she needs her wounds tended to.
More recently, horrible beatings are a frequent thing. With Conqueror, Lux's hellion of a daughter, rising in power, Malenki tells Sugar that it's only a matter of time before all of the captives are killed by Conqueror's particularly harsh treatment. Things between Conqueror and Lux are growing incredibly tense, and it is obvious that the tension is about to reach a boiling point. Together, Malenki and Sugar make a pact that if Conqueror rises up against Lux, they will flee.
And as Death spears a tusk through the chest of one of Conqueror's allies the following morning, Malenki and Sugar escape.
How Does Your Character Get Cursed?
Sugar winds up getting separated from Malenki as they run from the war erupting in the herd. Alone, afraid, and still wounded from her most recent encounter with Conqueror, Sugar finds herself in a foggy and eerily quiet graveyard. She hears whispers in the air. So exhausted from her ordeal, she listens to the voices and settles down to sleep against a peculiar gnarled oak tree. When she thinks back she remembers waking up and coughing a bit, like she inhaled some dirt from the ground, but now she knows... it was something else.
How Will Their Personality Change?
Sugar wakes up from her life-changing slumber with one thing in mind - revenge against the herd that took everything from her. Her previously sweet and caring nature is taken over by bitter sarcasm and hatred. Those that are happy and in love disgust her, and happy couples are usually her targets as she works her way down the list of those that wronged her.
How Will It Effect Their Current Plots & Story?
- A new enemy for the Conqueror and Lux crew. The big reveal of Sugar coming back a skinwalker will be a shock and a great big wrench thrown into any future plans they had (and so much dramaaa and bloodshed!).
- Sugar finds herself using what Lux did to her against others. She develops a ritual of ripping out her victim's heart and feeding it to their loved one. Word spreads of her awful killing methods.
- Malenki and Sugar meet again. The angst!! Malenki will never forgive himself for losing her and Sugar will never forgive him either. Malenki is forced to run, and he now has both Conqueror's crew and Sugar to look out for.
OOCly -- Why Do You Want Them Cursed?
Sooo much tragedy and angst. I cannot resist the angst and plots. I also feel like this is the right direction for Sugar's character.
Any Other Relevant Information You'd Like Us To Know?
Nope! Thank you for the opportunity : D

Character's Current Personality: Despite her dark, exotic look, Arcadia is a very sweet unicorn. She loves the fresh air and a good run; it makes her feel free and exhilarated. She is a curious mare, and especially so concerning her biological family -- she loves her adoptive parents, but she's often dreamed about meeting the ones who gave birth to her -- if they're even alive. She's also incredibly naive, and a little too trusting. She knows well enough to avoid skinwalkers and be wary of kalona, but she's never had a reason to distrust humans or other soquili. She's never been hurt by any, and has always been treated with kindness. She was, in a sense, rather sheltered, and has been lucky thus far to not have her innocence shattered... yet.
Character's Current History: Born to the unicorn Amaterasu and the shadow-beast Anju, Arcadia was not exactly a planned foal. When she was in her basket, her biological father attempted to steal her and her two brothers from her mother -- luckily, he only got away with her two brothers. Unfortunately, during the struggle, Arcadia's basket was lost and Amaterasu, in her despair, was unable to find her again. Her basket was discovered by a unicorn named Nymphadora Tonks, who took her back to Mingan Kishi's teepee. With the help of the two-legger, Tonks, and Barnacle, the three of them helped to raise the young abandoned unicorn into what she is today. Raised by anyone else, the little filly might have turned out differently -- but she was never lacking for love and attention, and what could have made for a dark, evil mare, Arcadia grew up sweet and kind. She was never really meant for a life with humans, though, and upon reaching adulthood, Arcadia set out on her own.
How Does Your Character Get Cursed? Curiosity. Naivety. It's easy for the stranger to trick her into thinking he has no ill intentions. It's easy to trick her into thinking that bag he offers her is full of apples instead of corpse powder. She shoves her muzzle in, eager for the offered treat, but instead finds her lungs full of the strange dust. After obtaining her pelt, Arcadia's own familiar, Cyclades, is her first victim as a new skinwalker.
How Will Their Personality Change? The curse will twist her core personality. Where she remains playful and curious, he actions are by far no longer innocent. Much like a feline that she has now become, she enjoys toying with her food before feasting -- catching and releasing her prey over and over to prolong the fun of the chase, taking pleasure from screams of fear instead of laughter. Her curiosity is drawn to anything that moves; she needs to find out what it is, see if it's fun to chase, wonders what happens when she sinks her new fangs into the flesh, what it will taste like. Arcadia likes to find variety in her prey, although it certainly doesn't put her off from anything she's hunted before.
How Will It Effect Their Current Plots & Story?
- Arcadia retains that same desire to meet and get to know her biological family. By the time Arcadia is cursed, she will have met Amaterasu at least once -- giving her the benefit of knowing just where to find her mother, leading to their first confrontation as a new skinwalker.
- The first skinwalker Amaterasu will actually have conflicted thoughts about killing. She is very familiar with skinwalkers; she knows they can't be cured or saved in any way, but now her long lost daughter has returned as one of them.
- She will remember Barnacle and Tonks from her past. She remembers having fun with them, and wonders if it would still be enjoyable to play with them. Of course, her type of play has changed drastically -- the soquili who raised her are in for a surprise when they meet again.
OOCly -- Why Do You Want Them Cursed? I love skinwalkers, and I love to play evil characters. Arcadia came from my very first breeding, and I'd love to be able to expand not only her story, but her mother's and the Order of Celestial Light herd's stories as well.
Any Other Relevant Information You'd Like Us To Know? Nope. I know the skinwalker rules and will gladly follow them, and understand the consequences if I don't. It's exciting to see another cursing event pop up!
If You Win, What Pelt Would You Choose? Please pick one! First choice Mountain Lion only if her unicorn tail is removed, second choice Bobcat if it's not removed
