Name: Mizuko
Name Meaning: Japanese - Water Child
Nicknames:

User Image

Personality: This male is one very restless individual that have a huge case of wanderlust so it is no surprise that he got woven into life with a river-minded personality. With that wanderlust, Mizuko uses that as an excuse to learn about everything that lives in any water bodies along with plants that surrounds or lines the inland water bodies or around the ocean/sea. The male might seems little bit erratic and off kilter due to his mind working in different way than rest of the water tribe but he always have a smile ready for anyone.

If you get him started on water-life, plant-life and things that are related to water, then be prepared to get your ears talked off for HOURS.. perhaps days!

Name Meaning: None - Mixture of Caitlyn and Charmander
Nicknames: Cait

User Image

Personality: Caitmander is a very friendly and outgoing female who treats everyone with respect due to her strong belief in this motto- "Treat everyone like you want to be treated". Don't take her friendly and outgoing personality for granted because this female have a huge temper hidden inside her that can cause chaos around her when she loses control of it. Another thing to keep in mind when you are interacting with her, she doesn't have any filter in her head so that means whatever comes into her mind will come out of her mouth as well. Most of the time, she won't apologize for her opinions but she gets away with it by flashing her trademark smile at them and distract them with other subjects. This nantil is a very mischievous one and loves to tease and do things to see what kind of reactions she could get.

Personality: Theron is anti-social, hardheaded ( and very stubborn) male that will not hide his sarcastic and cynical side from anyone including his loved ones. He really don't have any filter in his head and he will spit out whatever he is thinking while telling others to deal with it. On occasions, his mate Selene would see his soft and gentle side but that is typically short lived while he reverts back to his rough-edged personality. He doesn't show it but he's paranoid and worried about the ones he loves so he goes the distance to protect them without them knowing it because he doesn't want to feel like he is being 'tamed' or them knowing that he's softening up to them.

This nantil is not an impulsive type and will think for a while before she acts upon her thoughts or say something to anyone because she wants to make sure that every word she says will be able to help whomever she's speaking to. violence, blood and the malice...Sumati Bāgha barely could tolerate those things and will try to use her words to get herself or others out of that situation quickly.

About the B'alam ♦♦♦

xxxWhat's her name? Sumati Bāgha
xxxxxxMeaning? Hindi for good-minded tiger (aka intelligent tiger)
xxxPersonality ||
When you look at the female tiger-colored light tribes-nantil striding by you, you couldn't help but to notice that she have a friendly smile on her muzzle that reaches up to her soft pink eyes and hear a pleasant greeting from her as she walks by you. This nantil is Sumati Bāgha, a very generous and sweet female that uses her unique ability of gaining wisdom and strategy to help the light tribe to thrive and blossom into what they are destined to be. Soft-spoken, Sumati is usually not noticed when she is in the room because she prefers to keep her eyes and ears open for any new pertinent information that she could convey to the pair of magus or store it aside for various different reasons. This nantil is not an impulsive type and will think for a while before she acts upon her thoughts or say something to anyone because she wants to make sure that every word she says will be able to help whomever she's speaking to. violence, blood and the malice...Sumati Bāgha barely could tolerate those things and will try to use her words to get herself or others out of that situation quickly. The light tribe is her life, her pillars of strength and she's really loyal to them to her very last breath.

xxxWhat was her life like before Mlinzi stumbled upon her? She didn't have a life before Mlinzi stumbled upon her. She is newly woven into the life.
xxxWhat is her mindset within the Tribe? Capital Dweller. She strongly believes that she needs to stay near either or both magus just in case they needs her. There are a lot of traffic happening in Capital so its perfect place for her to glean information and learn more about various different things along with b'alam watching.

xxxWhat kind of plots would you like for her?
First Experience of War or Battle: This will be a huge challenge for Sumati due to her aversion to violence, blood and malice. The magus will need her advice, suggestions and whatnot so she will have to be forced to confront those deep-seated aversion to provide perfect advice/strategy so the light tribe could win the battle/war

One Mistake could have huge costs: Sumati's job is to be an high adviser to the magus but she's just a regular b'alam with her own flaws. I would like to see a situation where she gives one of the magus a wrong advice or strategy and have it blow up in her face (perhaps literally?). It will force her to take a deep look at herself and figure out why that mistake was wrong then fix it.


xxxWhat will she look for in a soul-mate?
Sumati's ideal mate will be a generous and easy going tahtll with same core values as her (loyalty, honor, honesty and family). He will be an intelligent male who will be her partner in everything, perhaps even as adviser's assistant as well because she will need someone to keep her information updated and adding more new tidbit of information or strategy that she could use in future circumstances. At same time, she needs someone who will challenge her words and give her some excitement so things won't get too stagnant in her daily life.

xxxGiven Mlinzi's inability to see, how would she go about explaining a very sight necessary strategy to the Magus?
Sumati is a very resourceful and 'think out of box' kind of female, she will develop this room where the table in middle will be a map of the entire kingdom along with another table charting a map of Light Tribe lands. However, there is something different about those maps, the lines and the texture are upraised so it’s very easy for Mlinizi to run his paw across those ridges and textures while being able to tell what he is 'seeing' along with small pawns that is designed for each own tribe. She will start explaining to him about the strategy by doing it in steps and guiding his paw to appropriate spots. She will keep her paw on his paw and 'move' the pawn while explaining what she feels that they need to do. She will make sure that the capital have several of those rooms just in case they can't reach to the main one in time. Those rooms will have those tables along with things that she could use to show him what she's talking about. (Think of braille) When they aren't near those rooms or tables, she will be using her tips of paws or tail on Mlinzi's side, 'drawing' out what she is seeing in her head for Mlinzi to see as well while talking out loud to explain more about the plans or whatnot.

xxxGiven that she is the Magi Adviser, what do you think would be the most difficult issue for her to resolve, and how do you think she would react when confronted with it?
I think the most difficult issue for her to resolve is the issue of death. At the moment, there are no deaths or wars happening but when wars or killings do happen, the magus will turn to her for help on how to deal with dead bodies and the violence. She will have to get over her deep-seated fear of death and aversion to violence to figure out how to stop the violence and b’alams dying. At first, she would panic internally and fight the instinctive urge to run inside the capital to avoid the sight of death but after some stern talking to herself, she will come back and confront the problem head on. If there is a body that she needs to look at and figure out what to do with it, she would sit with the body and learn everything about that b’alam so she could relay those information to the scribe before she advises the magus to how to deal with the body along with all of the information she have learned about the deceased brother or sister.



◘═══════◘
Tell her story ♦♦♦
|[ Prompt ]|

** This lady has two portions to her prompt you are to do both **

She has just woken up, she is as ignorant as a newborn infant. She has instincts, thoughts, dreams, and curiosities. She is a complete being, a sharp mind in the body of an adult. She can hear the crisp chirps of the birds in the trees as her eyes slowly open to the sight of something large and white lumbering right into her face. She is too late to react and the white object stumbles completely over her with a light 'Oomph' of a response. As she turns her head to focus further upon the stumbling white boulder, she gasps at what she sees. A large white B'alam ... but he's different than her, in ways she can sense, and see. A closer look reveals the larger B'alam to be hurt.

Give us an example of a self-roleplay. Tell us how this experience goes. Tell us what went through her mind, and how she reacted to Mlinzi's injuries. What does she do or say that so impresses the male into bringing her before the other leading Magus?

---

Upon returning the Magus back to his home, you find a very upset female waiting in the wings. She rushes to his side to ensure his safety before immediately jumping on his hide! "Where have you been?! You know you aren't supposed to wander, WE WORRY ABOUT YOU!" Hardly finishing one word before allowing the next to fly from her mouth like a bullet. The more male, merely stood blankly with a small smile upon his face and a dead stare.

It is in her blood to step in and relieve the tension in the room, but how does she go about doing it? Remember that Sri is the one she will be working closely with, and she should probably make a lasting impression.


Show us who this B'alam is. Give us a taste of what we can expect from you in taking this role on. We want to believe this B'alam's story, her dreams, her personality, her spirit. There's no word limit.

You are free to take on the role of Mlinzi & Sri for this RP.


A ball of light appears in middle of the crystal forest and it continually grows until it reveals a vague shape of b'alam nestled right in heart of the light. The light pulses before it reaches to the blinding levels and 'pops' out of existence, leaving a tiger colored nantil lifting her head off her paws, her newly formed pink eyes squints at the seemingly bright light in confusion, not sure what is happening. So many questions pops into her head as the tigress looks around curiously at things that seems so familiar to her like the glimmering sheen on the trees that forms a protective shelter over her head to the feeling of warmth coming from the bright orb in the sky. The dark red orb in her white twisted horn starts to glow as it absorbs in the sunlight while she closes her eyes, basking in the warmth while her black ears swivels around when she hears someone stumbling through the forest with a lot of twigs snapping and leaves crackling under the pressure. Lifting her head up, the tigress's eyes widens when a large white figure stumbles toward her fast enough and tripped over her body with a light 'oomph', the nantil's first reaction was to spin around and inspect the creature to make sure he or she is all right before she figure out what's going on. The sharp metallic smell fills her nose as she stares at a huge scrape marking that goes down from the large male's shoulder to back with red thick liquid oozing out, coating the scrape mark.

As the large white behemoth shifts his head toward the tigress, she recoils briefly in startled manner at the sight of milky white eyes and she instinctively realizes that the male is blind, and in a lot of pain.. judging from his ragged breathing. Tilting her head to side curiously, the female stayed silent as the need to look around for things to help him grows stronger but she is very confused about everything. Why is this male in so much pain? What happened to him? Where am I? Who am I? The questions swirls around inside her head as she instinctively dove into the nearby water body to grab seaweed from bottom of the lake. As her head broke the surface of the lake, she gasps for air while the large male turns his head in her direction with a pleasant smile tinged with pain and she felt this strong sensation inside her chest that could be described as powerful kinship love and protectiveness toward the large male that is laying on the ground few feet away from her. There is no questions in her heart that she is connected to this male in a way that she probably couldn't even explain.

"This should help." The female finds her voice as she moves over to the male, draping the dripping seaweed on top of the scrape wound carefully and her ears pins against her head at the sound of his pained hiss when the salt water hits the wound. "I am so sorry." She murmurs as she presses down on the seaweed to staunch the bleeding. Her ears swivels around as the ethereal voice whispers inside her head and it continues to repeat two words that sounds like.... her identity. ~Sumati Bāgha~ Her eyes flickers as she comes to realization that she finally knows her name and she whispers it to herself. The male leans in little bit to hear what she was whispering and he smiles at her but it didn't reach up to his milky eyes. "What are you whispering, my dear?" He gently says and the female stares at him with startled look, not realizing that she was making noises. "I am so sorry I am disturbing you.. I ju.." The blush graces her cheeks as she presses her paws more against the seaweed. "I found my name. Its Sumati Bāgha” She says with wondering tone. The male chuckles as his warm smile becomes bigger before he nods little bit. “It’s my pleasure meeting you. I am Mlizini. Do you really have to use salt?” He inquires as he fidgets in discomfort because the salt is starting to cause his wound to sting little more than usual.

"Salt is a cure to everything from our tears to oceans." Sumati gently murmurs to the male, feeling like she had to explain the purpose behind the seaweed being pressed down on scrape wound. Staring at her orange paws pressed against the dark green seaweed on white background tinged with pink, Sumati Bāgha closes her eyes briefly while the voices whispers inside her head along with wisps of advice flickering from one spot of brain to other. Feeling the texture of seaweed going from silky to pasty, indicating that it’s stuck to the white behemoth's wound, the nantil slowly takes her paws off while tapping his shoulder to get his attention. The nantil could sense that the tahtll she's interacting with is a very important being (she will discover later on that every light tribe members are very important and dear to her) and she wants to bring him back home without any more injuries added to his body. Mlizni is impressed with how calm this newly woven nantil is handling this along with having pearl of wisdom tossed into the mix so he decided to guide her back to the place where his partner would be waiting for him to return from the mini mission he went on instead of guiding her back to the tribe lands and assign someone to help her get acclimated to her new home.

----

On the journey back to her new home, Mlinzi was more than happy to answer all of the tigress’ questions about her identity as a light tribes-nantil, light tribe’s culture and various different questions. The magus noticed that the nantil is more primarily focused on political and cultural questions instead of superficial questions that he typically fields from the newly woven b’alams and he smiles to himself, secretly pleased about his new discovery but that smile remained when he sensed the tension when they reached the spot where another nantil is waiting. Sumtai looks at the tahtll that calls himself Mlizni, a magus of the light tribe where she belongs to and she smiles to herself, feeling the sense of wonder fill her body. Feeling quite blessed that she belongs to a very rich culture with a huge strong family that are connected to each other in so many different ways.

As they approaches the place, she noticed a very upset nantil comes flying out under the wings where she obviously was waiting and started screaming at Mlizni. “Where have you been?! You know you aren’t supposed to wander, WE WORRY ABOUT YOU!” The nantil screamed at Mlizni whom just stood there with a small smile on his face and dead expression, it seems to Sumati like he’s used to this kind of reaction from this furious nantil. The tigress shifts her weight as she felt like it’s her duty to soothe the tension and resolve this situation and she smiles at the furious nantil, waiting patiently for the female to visibly catch a breath before she smoothly interjects with an introduction and an apology. “I am Sumati Bāgha. I am afraid that Mlizni got himself in a little situation before he found me.” She gently says as she smiles at the male, knowing that he probably could sense that she’s smiling at him. “He wa-“ She gets interrupted by the furious female.

“Mlinzi is BLIND. He can’t see anything so how can he go wandering around and get himself injured or worse, KILLED?!” Sri screeches at the tigress, getting more infuriated that the male decided to go wandering around and got himself injured. Thankfully it wasn’t a severe injury but it could have been that way if he wasn’t careful! The female paces back and forth in front of Mlizni and the newly woven female, too freaked out to recognize that the female is new to this world. She wouldn’t know what she would do if something serious happened to her partner. Mlizni shifts his weight before he sits down on his hunches, listening to both females intently and is interested in what the female that calls herself Sumati would do in this situation. The female rounds onto Sumati with a pissed look in her eyes as she was going to launch into this long winded rant about Mlinzi being too important for them to risk him walking around due to his blindness and so on forth when the look of other female gave her pause. The new female looked a bit nervous but mostly she looked … calm and thoughtful which threw her off because she’s used to apologies and cowering when she is in one of her fits.

Black ears twitches as they flattens against her skull in a contrite manner briefly before the female nods, understanding why another female are so angry at Mlinzi for heading out, wandering around when he couldn't see anything. Closing her eyes, Sumati mentally reaches to that place where she have discovered her personal peace and wisdom and that’s where she stayed there for few seconds. In that moment, she realized that Mlinzi might be blind but he’s not truly blind, he’s still able to see in some manners. Sumati noticed that when she closes her eyes, her other senses like hearing, feeling, and smelling heightened like its compensating for the loss of sight and her eyes flew open with a smile on her face. “This is a crazy but...” She holds her paw up to the furious yet confused female. “Could you please sit down and close your eyes for few minutes? Mlinzi might not be able to see with his eyes but he’s able see with his other senses like hearing, smelling and feeling.” The female smiles at Sri before she looks at Mlinzi while she starts talking once again in earnest- “When one sense is being taken away, other...” She quickly mentally takes inventory of senses she have by inhaling in the air, brushing the soil under her paw, listening to other nantil’s angry breathing along with tasting the crisp fresh air and she smiles. “… Four senses will improve to compensate for a loss of one sense. “ Sumati gets up and walks over to Sri, noting that she’s little bit bigger than her and she have that same ‘magus’ aura around her like Mlinzi does but she refuses to let that stop her. “Please… do this experiment for me.” She looks at Sri before she sits down on her hunches once again in front of Sri and closes her eyes to demonstrate that she will do it with him. As her mind registers that the sight is gone, the other four senses have enhanced themselves like she have predicted and every little thing she smelled, heard, tasted and felt are noticeably more detailed than when she have her sight. A quickening breath in front of her indicates that other female is ‘seeing’ what Mlinzi have been seeing for a very long time and she grins widely, knowing that the tension is finally disappearing.

Sri eyes Sumati doubtfully, she glances over at Mlinzi whom gave her a nod, almost like he’s telling her to try it and she warily settles down on her hunches, closing her eyes for few minutes wondering if the new nantil is telling truth or not. The sound of other b’alams talking a good distance away sounds so close to her, Sri’s ears swiveled around wildly as she struggles not to open her eyes because now she could feel the grass under her paws along with slight vibrations from other b’alams’ walking or the shift in the earth under pressure. The vivid fresh and crisp smell of air after the rain assaulted her nose and she inhaled deeply before she swatted at Mlinzi when she hears him chuckle in amusement at her reactions to the sensations that she’s experiencing. After a long moment of being in silence and darkness, Sri opens her eyes and stares at the new nantil with newly-found respect. “What is your name again, nantil?” Sri inquires as she moves toward Mlinzi. “I am sorry. I never realized that you could ‘see’ with other senses that I have forgotten about that could be useful.” She frowns as she headbutts Mlinizi, feeling bad that they have been telling him that he couldn't do all of those things just because he couldn't see with his eyes.

“Sumati Bāgha.” The tigress says with a gentle smile as she watches the female apologize to the male. “Every moment is a learning opportunity. Mlinzi could show us how to see the world he is seeing right now with all of his remaining senses and we could show him the world we see.” She softly says as she lifts her chin up when both of the magus approaches her. “When you cage a bird, it won’t sing for you…” She commented as she looks from Sri to Mlinzi and she smiles gently. “But if you set a bird free, it will sing its heart out for you. With your permission, madam magus… I would like to learn everything about this culture along with how to deal with situations like Mlinzi’s so we all could be educated and work very well together.”

Sri stares at the tigress for few heartbeats, deeply impressed with how this female have handled this situation with grace and composed attitude. “I am Usha'Sri but you can call me Sri for short. I ...” She smiles little bit as she glances at Mlinzi whom continued to sit there with a small (now) amused smile on his face. “I would like to apologize for my behavior. I seem to forget that Mlinzi is capable of taking care of himself sometimes. I- “ She suddenly falls silent as she looks thoughtful while Mlinzi is using their personal connection to tell her of the observations he have made about Sumati- the tigress’ keen interest in culture, politics, society takes priority over superficial things and she is also very interested in current events. “I think we found our head adviser, Sri. Don’t you think so too?” Mlinzi’s voice carries across the personal connection between two magus as Sri stares at Sumati thoughtfully when the tigress looks around at the room they are in with interest before meeting Sri’s intent gaze with a warm yet curious gaze of her own and a small serene smile on her muzzle.
