 Name: Amaranth Thelian Elmbark
Alias: Ama
Age: Child
Gender: Male
Race: Sundial Curio
Birthdate: January 9th
Sign/Omen: Capricorn / Saturn / I Use / Goat
Current Residence: Outskirts of Barton
Birth Place: Elsewhere
Allegiance: True Nuetral
Belief/Religion: Undecided
Titles/Honorifics: "Tracker"
Profession: Helps Out in the Greenhouse
Hobby: Sketching, Reading, Being Quiet
Personality: Taciturn, Secretive, and Adroit
If Ama doesn't have to talk to you, don't expect him to. If he talks to you, considered yourself honored. Amaranth prefers to keep his inner thoughts and feelings to himself, making it hard to tell what's on his mind. It's not that he doesn't want to talk and make friends; he just doesn't see the point in idle chitter-chatter. If he speaks, you best listen, because he won't speak unless he deems it important. And don't be too insulted if you get simple answers or just hand gestures when talking to him; you brought it on yourself.
He is rather clever and dexterous when it comes to using his hands to sketch, to build, or whatever else he puts his mind to. This trait has made him a valuable addition to the family; he helps make signs for the green house and helps with the maintenance on the irrigation systems.
Likes: Sketching, Building, Sunlight, Solitude, Quiet, Sunflower Seeds, Outdoors
Dislikes: Rain, Being Caught in The Rain, Liars, Celery, Idle Chatter, Being Expected to Participate in Idle Chatter
Goals: To Explore All of the Woods Around Where he Lives
Life's Ambition: Undecided
Fears: Being Lost, Lightning, The Dark
Crippling Fear: The Dark
Mannerisms: He tends to gesture a lot, speaking more with his hands than his voice.

Sign/Omen: Gemini / Mercury / I Think / Twins
Current Residence: Outskirts of Barton

Titles/Honorifics: "Wise Woman of the Forest"
Profession: Making Herbal Remedies for Those Who Ask
Hobby: Running A Greenhouse to Sell Organic Fruits and Veggies
Personality: Iskara radiates a sense of calm and well being that's almost impossible to ignore. From her soft, humming voice to her gentle, skirt-swaying motions, everything about her is soft and comforting. She thrives on making others, be it a person, plant, or animal, happy. She's a very maternal person and sees every plant and creature in her forest as her children. And she takes very good care of her children, taking time to speak with each creature and plant at least once every few months.
She is quite a bit of a technophobe, worrying that such things could bring harm to her, her family, or to the very forests she protects.

Crippling Fear: Technology
Mannerisms: She tends to sway as she talks, her long hair and flowing skirts always in motion.

 (( Image Coming Soon ))
Name: Ezri Rhododendron Elmbark
Alias: Ezi
Age: Old, looks about 17-20ish
Gender: Female
Race: Earth Elemental
Birthdate: May 21st
Sign/Omen: Gemini / Mercury / I Think / Twins
Current Residence: Outskirts of Barton
Birth Place: Otami Ruins ((Before they were ruins...))
Allegiance: Chaotic Good
Belief/Religion: Her "religion", per se, is more or less traditions she was taught back when she was just a young sprout. She does try to incorporate modern customs in, though, adapting to modern society a bit better than her elder sister.
Titles/Honorifics: "Wood Nymph"
Profession: Running the Green House
Hobby: Flirting with Mortals
Personality: Ezri is a sprightly, energetic girl. She never walks when she could run, and the only time she sits is to maybe sleep a bit or to eat. Her personality holds the same warmth her sister's does, but with the zest and energy of a young child on a caffiene hype. She's more adaptable than her sister, adjusting a bit better to modern society and adopting newer, if not modern, clothing styles.
Ezri is a very sweet girl, though she can be a bit slow on the uptake and usually doesn't get hints. She's got a mischievious streak, often using will o' the wisps to toy with lost individuals a bit before helping them find their way. She's also quite the flirt, so beware.
Likes: Outdoors, Fresh Air, iPods, Bicycles, Music, Flirting, Romance Novels, Energy Drinks
Dislikes: Being told to put her iPod away, having to act like the mystical old fart she is, vegetables, and spiders.
Goals: To Move out on her Own Someday
Life's Ambition: (( ATM )) To BEcome a Pop Star ( Liable to change within the next century )
Fears: Spiders
Crippling Fear: Spiders
Mannerisms: She bounces. She talks with quick, jerky hand gestures. She winks. A lot. And she - ooh look, new person! - has a short attention span.

 [ Image Coming Soon ] The small, log cabin looks like something out of a Kincaid painting. Vines of wisteria and morning glories cover the thatch roof in a beautifully colored blanket, blooming through wind, rain, sleet, and snow, filling the air with there calming scent. Green, lush vines curl their way up the log walls, and lush, tall grass reaches up to the windowsills. While the cottage itself seems small on the outside, it's really only just an entry room. The true house lies down below, in a burrow within the hillside. The house is lit by fireflies and glowing, warm hearths, the air scented with flowers and fresh baked bread. This. This is home. [ Image Coming Soon ] The tall, dome-shaped building of brass and glass looks like something from a Victorian print. The old, ornate greenhouse stands proudly among the newer, refurbished buildings, boasting it's experience and culture to the world. Within, the room is a sea of greens and vibrant colors: flowers, fruits, and vegetables, all waiting for their new homes.

Curio
(( Item ))
This stage is optional
Okay, so you got curious, you walked into the Curio Shop (or saw an add in the paper, or on the tv, specifically calling out to you), and lo and behold...something caught your attention! Something from across the room, or perhaps beside you, or even in the wall above your head calls to you and only you. You feel unable to part with it, if not weirded out to feel such a strange attachment to a probably dusty old item. You take it home with you, and are left with a sympathetic stare and the parting words of "I'm open really late, just so you know...and all sales are final. Period."
Item to Toddler/Kid
- Time Requirement: 10 minutes
- Acquiring RP
- 1 Journal OR Solo RP**
**= Most people generally do this as a reaction to getting the item, or the shop in general. It's not a reaction to having a toddler or a kid, as that is taken care of in the next stage's requirements.
Baby
(( 0-1 ))
This stage is mandatory for breedings
Oops, these won't happen yet! Babies only come along when two teenage or older Curios love each other very, very much.
Toddler
(( Ages 2-5 ))
This stage is optional but preferred
Suddenly, your item errupts into a toddler! You've probably taken the blue-haired shop owner up on her offer of being open late, and you'll learn one way or another that all sales are final! No returns, exchanges or refunds! So you're stuck with a little brat, one who either thinks of you as some big hero or some big bad guy...or a thousand other possibilities inbetween! Your patience will be tried, your vases will be smashed, and your little one will learn how to walk, talk and run like crazy.
Toddler to Kid
- Time Requirement: 13 minutes
- Growth Response
- 2 Playdates
- Learning their ABC's and 123's
- 1 Journal/Solo RP
- Solo RP: Individual Prompt**
**= (To be given when the next stage's art is being worked on)
Kid
(( Ages 6-9 ))
This stage is mandatory
As the saying goes "You spend the first years of their life teaching them to walk and talk, and you spend the rest telling them to sit down and shut up", your Curio is growing older, and probably starting to drive you crazy...but not in an adorable way that they used to. No, they're growing up, they're making closer friends, and they're getting curious about things and perhaps an innate talent or two they possess. That poor vase never had a chance.
Kid to Pre-teen
- Time Requirement: 14 minutes
- Growth Response
- 4 Playdates
- 2 Journals (At least 1 from the Curio)
- 2 Solo RPs
- Learning / Honing a Skill
- Solo RP: Individual Prompt**
**= (To be given when the next stage's art is being worked on)
or
Kid to Teen
- Time Requirement: 15 minutes
- Growth Response
- 10 Playdates {x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}
- 6 Journals (At least 4 from the Curio) {x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}
- 6 Solo RPs {x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}
- Learning / Honing a Skill
- Solo RP: Individual Prompt**
**= (To be given when the next stage's art is being worked on)
Pre-teen
(( Ages 10-13 ))
This stage is optional
As a prelude to probably the hardest part of a parent's life, your Curio takes a trip down the walk of a Pre-teen. They're awkward but trying hard to not be, their talents are probably starting to get more powerful but probably as out of whack as their hormones and moods...but they are nowhere near as bad as a full blown teenager. They just aren't that cute, big headed little curio that stared up at you with that big grin to show off their two missing front teeth.
Pre-teen to Teen
- Time Requirement: 16 minutes
- Growth Response
- 6 Playdates
- 4 Journals (At least 3 from the Curio)
- 4 Solo RPs
- Solo RP: Individual Prompt**
**= (To be given when the next stage's art is being worked on)
Teenager
(( Ages 14-18 ))
This stage is mandatory
Hormones abound! Your teenager's talents will be as explosive as their tempers, though of course some will have better control than others. You are either the villain or the neutral...unless your curio is one of the rare few who would still see you as their hero. As with most teenagers, expect to be either the blackest of evil or a nice, neutral gray...there will be no shining white hero anymore. Chances are they'll rebel, and more than just that poor vase will be lost. They may get jobs, they may move out...but they're thinking and moving more on their own, ready to try their hand at things (even if it is just to get away from you). If they haven't gotten the birds and bees talk, now might be the time!
Teen to Young Adult
- Time Requirement: 17 minutes
- Growth Response
- 8 Playdates {x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}
- 6 Journals (At least 5 from the Curio) {x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}
- 6 Solo RPs {x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}
- Solo RP: Individual Prompt**
**= (To be given when the next stage's art is being worked on)
Young Adult
(( Ages 19-24 ))
This stage is mandatory
There is another saying that says "Night is always darkest before Dawn", and that much is true. Your Teenager is probably mellowing out now, finding their niche in life after that nice little (or maybe not so little) burst (explosion) of rebellions and hormones. If you haven't disowned them yet, they'll probably come around and talk to you more now, getting more back into sync with you. If you have disowned them...then lets just hope they are sane enough to have found their nice nest in place.
Young Adult to Adult
- Time Requirement: 18 minutes
- Growth Response
- 10 Playdates {x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}
- 8 Journals (At least 7 from the Curio) {x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}
- 8 Solo RPs {x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}{x}
- Solo RP: Individual Prompt**
**= (To be given when the next stage's art is being worked on)
Adult
(( Age 25+ ))
This stage is mandatory
They are fully responsible beings. Sure they may be quirky, but they're done. Their life if complete and it looks like things are calm again. Of course, if they have children then that might not be the case, in which case you can sit back and laugh at them. Chances are they are going through the EXACT same thing you did with them. Oh the circle of life.
