~* Leifieren *~

Pronunciation Note: "Leifieren" is said "LAYF-ee-EH-rin"

Personality (Self Assured, Supportive)
While he has a healthy pride in his appearance and skills, Leifieren isn't conceited or condescending. He places great importance in doing a job exceptionally well, and so he values fitness, skill, and devotion above all else. The unique and the beautiful are quick to catch his eye, but he is careful to form opinions of others, and does his best to treat everyone equally. He is very self-assured, and tries to boost the self confidence of others as well. He is particularly impressed with those who excel at their rank's skills and put their all into their calling.

He sees himself as a rather prime physical specimin for a Hunter: The striped and spotted patterning on his fawn-colored coat help him to disappear into the sun-dappled undergrowth of the Hreidmar forest; his lean build gives him great maneuverability and speed; constant physical activity and practice have honed his climbing, stealth, and tracking skills. He holds himself to a very high ideal, and is always striving to reach it. He expects the same of others as well, but isn't as hard on them as he is on himself.

Relationship Status (Single, Almost-Looking)
Leif is just on the edge of figuring out that he might want to find a girl who catches his fancy and start raising a family... but he's still a little young and oblivious about things like that. He does, however, seem to have what could turn out to be a dangerous attraction to risk; his eye for beauty, uniqueness, and strength might lead him into a little bit of relationship trouble in the future, depending on what female Fafners he meets up with...

Favorite Diversions (Athletic Activity in Hreidmar Forest)
This Hunter likes nothing better than to be using his skills and instincts out in the Hreidmar Forest that is his home. It's an environment he's adeptly suited to, and he relishes stretching his limbs with a good climb through the trees or a quick chase through the undergrowth. All the sights, sounds, and smells the forest has to offer are a sheer delight to him, and he'd almost be a daydreamer reveling in the glory of the world around him if he weren't such an active fellow. Even when he isn't on the hunt to support his Clan, he'll likely be found practicing the same skills of tracking, stalking, and chasing for sheer enjoyment of the sport. He only kills for food, and is as merciful as possible when doing so. Everything has its place in the world to him, and he's thankful for those who aid in the survival of himself and his clan, allies and prey alike.

~* Erimari *~

Pronunciation Note: "Erimari" is said "eh-REE-mah-ree"

Design Note: Modeled after the Ethiopian Wolf.


Personality (Patient, Nurturing)
Sweet and understanding, she lends her ear to the troubles of other Fafners, and will do her best to help them resolve their problems. She is patient and motherly, which makes her a great fluff-sitter. She hopes to have some fluffs of her own to look after someday, but is too shy in seeking a potential life mate. It takes a lot to raise her ire, but when she's angry she's more likely to go off and sulk than to retaliate with harsh words or violence.

Relationship Status (Single, Shyly Looking)
Though practical in most matters, she's given to daydreaming when it comes to finding a life mate. To shy to start courting with the available males on her own, she still wants to start a family with that one perfect guy. He just seems to exist only in her mind at the moment, and romantic advances are likely to send her into bashful stuttering. It could take a little work if the right Fafner comes along to sweep her off her feet.

Favorite Diversions (Exploring, Playing with the Fluffs & Pups)
As a Harvester, Erimari has a great interest in all plant life. This often leads her to spend her free time exploring farther away from her clan's lands, seeking out new and unusual plants. She loves to test out new foods, but the adventure of finding them is her real joy. When at home with the clan, she likes to spend her time around the fluffs and pups, playing with them and listening to their own tales of adventure.

~* Abeni *~

Pronunciation Note: "Abeni" is said "ah-BEH-nee"

Name Meaning: "We asked for her and we got her," from the Yoruba of Africa

Design Note: Modeled after the Kudu.


Personality (Energetic, Nurturing)
Though she can be a little on the brash side now and then, this bundle of energy has a nurturing side to her that is a direct contrast to her fierceness on the hunt. Ofttimes wild and demanding, those she cares deeply about get to see her softer side when she reaches a calmer mood. Her brother, Kayode, tends to be the unlucky fafner who is on the receiving side of both her worst moods and best moods, alternately being chewed out for some kind of mess-up, or smothered with her efforts to find him a mate.

Relationship Status (Single, but looking)
Currently single, she's on the lookout for a mate. She is impressed most by strong males, like the best hunters and sentinels. Harvesters hold little interest for her, unless they prove their worth in other ways.

Most of her "mate hunting" time, however, tends to be directed towards finding a femme for her brother. He claims disinterest but she doesn't appear to be listening.

Favorite Diversions (Hunting, Wrestling)
A great proponent of physical activity (particularly the strenuous kind), Abeni likes nothing better than to train her already well-honed body. She likes risky hunts, swimming in storms, and testing her strength against other fafners in wrestling matches and mock battles. If it weren't for her more reserved brother, she'd probably be picking fights with boars to test her skills against them!

~* Kayode *~

Pronunciation Note: "Kayode" is said "KAH-yoh-DEH"

Name Meaning: "He brought joy," from the Yoruba of Africa

Design Note: Modeled after the Kudu.


Personality (Introspective, Bold)
Typically quiet, Kayode spends his time analyzing situations and coming up with new ways of doing things. He has quite the daring streak though, and inherited a little bit of the same recklessness his sister, Abeni, possesses. If another fafner is in danger, he is quick to react even if it means risking himself. In situations that aren't life threatening, however, he tends to sit back and consider the possibilities, before determining the best course of action.


Relationship Status (Single, not looking)
He is single and he likes it that way, but apparently his sister does not. She often points out that they're of the age where they should be finding life mates and settling down, but his mind is occupied by other things. Like devising new fishing methods and better ways of trapping land-bound and flying prey. It seems he might be in for a change of priorities, though... rumor has it some femmes have taken an interest in him.

(Bunny & Rain's fafners, which ones not stated yet, have "dibs" on convincing him to be their mate, and will be competing against each other. Poor Kayode, but Abeni's sure to be pleased!)

Favorite Diversions (Fishing, Rock Climbing, Singing)
Though he is moderately athletic, he doesn't have his sister's insane drive to push himself to his physical limits. He does, however, greatly enjoy fishing and rock climbing. He is very adept at the latter, though he doesn't get much chances in Attila's home range. He'll often accompany his sister into Brynhild territory, however, and it is there that his mountaineering abilities shine. He's adept at fishing, and devised a unique way to take advantage of his misshapen horns (which grew upwards instead of curving back and down). He spears the fish on his horns, swimming through whole schools at a time to get as many as possible, and often carries them home that way. His secret delight is singing, and he will sometimes make up spontaneous songs about his surroundings if he thinks no one is around to hear.

~* Remblarius *~

Pronunciation Note: "Remblarius" is said "rem-BLAH-ree-us"

Design Note: Modeled after the Peacock.


Personality (Loud, Sweet)
Rem tends to be rather talkative, and has little bit of a problem with voice modulation. That, and his short attention span for most things, made him a horrible prospect for a hunter. Anything with a heartbeat (many fafners included) leave the area at his approach, he's so disturbing to the surroundings most of the time. He can quiet down a little when he's on his own, but then he has a habit of talking to the plants around him to occupy himself. He isn't crazy, just... easily bored and distracted. On the other hand, he's an absolute dear with quite the romantic streak.

Relationship Status (Single, trying to look)
Given his short attention span and habit of running over whatever someone else is trying to say, other Fafners don't tend to stick around him for very long. This is truly disappointing to him, as he has so much to say about what he's observed in the world, and of others. He never gives away secrets, but he hasn't really been entrusted with any, either, since he has a hard time making friends. His talkative nature gets him misunderstood as ego-centric, when he's really just trying to find a connection with someone. So, until someone can look past his overly loud, chatty exterior, and find out what a sensitive sweetheart he really is inside, it looks like he'll be staying single.

(Elvish has called a "dibs" on him but I'm uncertain if she meant RP or Mate possibility)

Favorite Diversions (Chattering, Waxing poetic)
He will talk about anything and everything he thinks he knows something about... to the pain of other ears around him, usually. He's tried quieting down some, but he really isn't very good at it... his tongue has a mind of its own and won't listen to his brain. Actually, it doesn't even consult his brain before spouting out words a lot of the time, and only informs his mind of what he's saying after others have heard it. That's... extremely inconvenient at times.

Random Note:
Rem exhibits the signs of ADHD that I did back in grade school. And still do to some extent, I'm one of the 40% who wasn't able to outgrow it in adulthood, not entirely anyway @.@ So please pardon both of us when he stays IC, it might get a little scary at times!

~* Navarri *~

Pronunciation Note: "Navarri" is said "nah-VAH-ree"

Design Note: Modeled after the Grey Heron.


Personality (Gentle, Skittish)
Rather self-conscious about her wing mutation and the fear it tends to evoke in other fafners, Navarri tends to keep to herself rather than face what she thinks to be their disgusted stares. Still, she is very kind hearted and gentle towards others. She is always willing to help if they ask her too, and will even offer her assistance if they don't request it of her, but she knows they need it.

Relationship Status (Mated, to Lorccán)
She was rather taken aback when she first encountered the winged Lorccán, the first fafner she'd met with wings like hers. She still doesn't understand why a male would be interested in her, but he's overcoming her self confidence issues. Their relationship is still in the RP stages, and they'll be expecting a litter down the line!

Favorite Diversions (Sky Dancing, Exploring)
Though she thinks of her wings as a mutation that sets her apart from "normal" fafners, making her undesirable, she really does enjoy the freedom flight gives her. She can go where she wants to, even high into the mountains, with less effort than it takes to walk, as long as she catches the right updrafts and currents. She doesn't venture high into the mountains often, though, since the currents there can be quite strong and dangerous. While up in the air, she can see for miles around, and lands to explore new areas and sights that catch her eye. She likes to venture into the caves of Brynhild, looking for the rumored treasures, but hasn't dared to go to the top of the peaks just yet.
