in a courtly fashion - a quest for a water beasta chance to make it happen means you need to cast yourself to the wind and give heed to what dwells in these waters . . .
for there are mysteries no human can ever fully understand, only hoping to grasp the thinnest strands in legends passed down through ages untold from sources unknown . . .
now in these waters dwell two beasts, stories so different yet so very much the same, and it is with them that lessons learn and lives pass . . .
QUESTIONS?
o1 what is a Kelpie?
- information on a kelpie can be found here and here
o2 what is a Selkie?
- information on a selkie can be found here and here

the horse is not a boy ~
~ but what if the boy is a horse?
name Vox
gender Male
race Kelpie, a 'water horse'
nationality Appears to be of Indian decent
hair color Sandy brown with black roots, always
is dripping water
eye color Pure black, with white pupils
skin color Tan around his eyes, at his knees, elbows, and shoulders.
Otherwise an ashy shade of white
hobbies Swimming, reading, studying anatomy
likes Other boys, water, mythology
dislikes Anything holy, liver, horses(?)
general personality Malevolent, seems to like boys a lot.
Enjoys reading books down by the river or being
near water in general. Likes walks on the beach or by
the river, and wishes he could be a scuba diver so
he can be in the water.
. . . did I mention he likes water? Oh, and other boys. A lot.
abilities Inhumanly high strength, can breathe underwater,
ability to repel toxins or poisons thanks to Kelpie blood
indepth personality A Kelpie by
nature but a 'human' for want and need of food,
Vox isn't nice and doesn't care to be nice. He's only in a
generally decent mood towards others when he is hungry
and not being fed properly, his kindness merely a ruse to
try and get someone close enough to him to be drowned
and consumed.
He likes to spend his time reading books or
generally walking along the side of the river, and
he seems to really enjoy the company of others
boys. This may make him appear to like them
in a way that would equate to having feelings for
that particular gender, but it is more or less that
the Kelpie in him prefers to eat young boys
as they seem to be the tastiest.
That isn't to say he is unkind or rather tasteless in
personality, as he does like to have fun now and then.
Talk of anything relating to legends about Fae
get him excited and he can go on for hours
about the human body and it's many wonders.

cry seven tears ~
~ and i'll come to your side
name Nox
gender Male
race Selkie, a 'seal wo/man'
nationality Appears to be of Inuit decent
hair color Dark muddy brown, almost black
eye color Dark brown, almost black
skin color Tanned leather
hobbies Flirting, swimming, doing household chores
likes The ladies, mirrors, playing with Vox
dislikes Furs (as in garments, rugs, etc), when
he can't find things in their proper places, liars
general personality A ladies man, though not entirely
a playboy. Happy-go-lucky and an ally to
women all around the world, he isn't afraid to
admit he has a slightly short attention span. Always
seems to be looking for something
abilities Empathy with those who feel disloyalty or sorrow,
strong swimmer, conjuring small waves
indepth personality Somehow called to shore by
the tears of a unhappy maiden, Nox got trapped here
when his pelt was stolen from him and hidden
somewhere amongst the lands. He was searching for it
for a little while but somehow got distracted along the way
and forgot the whole reason behind the pain in
his chest that made him feel like he was suffocating.
Eventually this pain became a bit too much to bear
as he could never find his pelt and he perished. . .
The type of guy who enjoys a good time, he likes
to be around others, mostly women, but every now and
then seems to enjoy time alone near any type of water.
This usually only occurs when he gets thinking too
much about anything in particular and he seems
to recall that something he missing, though it
passes rather quickly thanks to his nature.

Vox (V): *sticks a finger into his mouth as a gagging motion*

Nox (N): Hopefully on your bedroom floor, right next to yours ;D
1o For Vox: What's your favorite color? Why?

27 Among the classical elements (wood, water, earth, fire, steel) which do you most identify with?

Nox (N): I want to be able to fly or climb walls. That would be amazing.
Vox (V): Well, as I grow older I'm supposed to get some sort of mind control....so I'm set for now.
33 If your house was on fire and you could only carry three things, what would they be?
Nox (N): My pelt and it alone (if I ever find it . w . )
Vox (V): Nothing. My own life if worth more than anything sitting inside that building, and I can always get more later. Though probably my anatomy books, as many as I could take.
34 If you were stranded on a desert island, what three things would you bring with you, taking into consideration you're a lobster?
Nox (N): Why would I be a lobster? I'm a Selkie, we're not lobsters. We're seals. Vox, why would -
Vox (V): *karate chop*
35 Right wing or Left?
Nox (N): On an airplane I like to sit over the right side. It just feels better.
Vox (V): Wings aren't dark meat, right? Then both.
36 Do you leave the toilet seat up?
Nox (N): WE BOTH PEE IN THE RIVERS AND SUCH =D. I prefer the well out back.
Vox (V): *chokes on some water he was drinking*
Nox (N): >;D
37 Beatles or The 'Stones?
Vox (V): The Beatles I guess. Either are fine.
Nox (N): I'm a Beach Boys kinda guy =D
38 For Vox: Has anyone pointed out the unfortunate fact that small boys tend to disappear in your presence? If so, what was your explanation...?
Vox (V): Do you have any proof of this? then shut up . w . I'm only doing what's natural to my kind, and I'm also helping reduce the population. It's a win/win, but you fail to see this.
39 For Nox: OHNOES! A rather lovely, perhaps unfaithful, damsel looking for someone to save her from the boredom of a stagnant relationship~ BUT WAIT! Are those shoes really leather...and is that a mink shawl? What to doooo?
Nox (N): *is crying in a corner from the sheer mention of it all* YOU'RE TOO CRUEL D: ANIMALS ARE NOT MEANT TO BE WORN UNLESS YOU DID IT FOR GOOD REASON.
Vox (V): Like food and shelter?
Nox (N): SHUT IT. *runs off*
Vox (V): . . . .pansy.
40 Question for Vox! Do you carry a towel around to mop up the water left by your hair? If so, how do you hide it? (If you bother to do that?)
Vox (V): First off, my hair does not drip buckets of water so there is no need to really worry or care about it; I leave tiny drops at most. Second off, I don't care what people do or know or think, so. . .

A small question; Quote: Somehow called to shore by the tears of a unhappy maiden, Nox got trapped here when his pelt was stolen from him and hidden somewhere amongst the lands. He was searching for it for a little while but somehow got distracted along the way and forgot the whole reason behind the pain in his chest that made him feel like he was suffocating. How did he end up in a cabbage? Or did I misunderstand it and is he a part of the family and not a kid? XD;

He was wandering around for a while and eventually suffocated? It would be possible for him to perish like that and become a cabbage that way, as for selkies who lose their pelts live their lives on land like they are suffocating D:
