Player: Pearlyblue
Name: Duskwater
Nicknames: Dusk
Species: Sentinel of Noctua
Age: Still Going Strong
Hatch Date: 23/10/200?
Type: Ghost
Task: Elite
Personality: Proud, honest to a fault and seemingly fearless, Dusk is a tough old bird, notorious for his fierce loyalty to the Brigadier and the clan, and for his unbreakable persistence. If Dusk has been given a task, he will see it through no matter what complications may arise. Missions are for accomplishing, difficulties are for overcoming, and that’s the simple truth of the world from Dusk’s point of view. This singular mindset of his and his unwavering faith in his own abilities is his greatest strength, having pulled him through many a seemingly impossible situation and given him the fitting reputation of being hard-as-nails. He may seem like a grim and stern-faced old sentinel and his speech is often clipped and frank to the point of rude, but this is because Dusk is just not well versed in social interaction. He’s that scary, quiet old veteran down the street who keeps wondering why no kids come trick-or-treating to his door at Halloween (yet keeps bulking up on candy, just in case).
History: His mother was a teacher, but she was sickly and died in an illness shortly after he had begun fledging. Overjoyed at her strong, vigorous son that was so much unlike herself, she kept him close and taught him as much as she could, always suspecting that she might not live to see him into adulthood. When she passed away, he was left in the care of his father, who was a ranger and had never been much of a part of Dusk’s life up until that point and, as if to compensate, took the youngling with him wherever he went. Which usually meant far away from everyone else. When the time came to choose a task, Dusk pretty much defaulted to be a ranger himself, feeling quite comfortable with the lifestyle. His father has since passed away from old age, but lived to see his son make a name for himself and even be chosen into the elites for “admirable perseverance in the face of adversity”.
Territory: A good spot in the Deep Woods, where he nests in a giant beech tree.
