Seska, Atrum Luna Goddess

Description: Hair is shoulder-length black with teal edges. Her clothing is almost always black and teal, suiting her mood at the time. She has a black swirled marking beneath her right eye.

History: Little is known of Seska except that she is the Atrum Luna goddess, and the dark moon is her domain. Her sister Juska is the younger, but controls the Light Moon domain. They do seem to get along well enough though Seska is much more impatient than her sister.

Their rule was always one of balance, she and her sister exchanging places at the end of the year. One would dwell in the realm of the dead while the other would dwell in the realm of the living. Switching places kept their duties fresh and eventful and prevented anything from getting too one sided.

Something happened, causing both goddesses to remain dead. They are not saying what occurred, but they are trying to fix it.

Valkon is seldom seen without Tai Zahra. They are connected through their deaths.

Current name : Valkon
Name in previous lifetime : James Falcon
Age at Death : 13 years old
Family Crest : A falcon in a wood
Race : Yokai
Nine-tailed fox with the ability to change shape. Some wear masks, some do not.

Type : Vagabond
Ghostlings gone rogue, often as wanderers, pirates, or mercenaries.


Description : Wears an old black hat with a black and white checkered band. A long split tailed sleeveless black coat with brightly colored buttons and gems sewn to the front. Striped bands on his arms. Black shorts with white stripes at the bottom. He has a strange tattoo on his left arm and his mouth looks stitched. Violet hair at the crown falls to pale blue nearly white at the tips. He has several fox tails, violet at the base, then blue to the pale blue at the tips.

History : The day he died, James was walking in the woods. He fell mortally injuring himself. It's rumored that a fox was involved in the incident, killed by his father, but Valkon himself had not remembered any of this though he has fox tails until Loa opened up his memories. He still thinks she's psycho after stealing his essence for children, but he does love his kids.

After being banished to the shadow world and finding Az, Valkon has since returned, bringing the castle and those within, Chronos and Az, back to the living world from where Kita banished them. He has since found out that his lore, Tai Zahra, is the spirit of the fox that had tried to protect him before he died. There is no question of his loyalty to Valkon no matter where that leads.

Since returning he has absorbed the shapes of several animals including an ancient god found in a cavern. He has become the God of Creature Essences. His domain includes their shapes, their bones and essence, as well as the animals themselves. He will protect them even by corrupting a few to help him protect the others.

His forms include, but are not limited to :

Crow, Rat, Snake, Wolf, Monkey, Cat, Ferret, Horse, Guinea Pig, Bull, Dauschund, Mouse,
Black Jaguar, Tiger, Dragon, Elephant, Cheetah, Shark, Orca, Dolphin, Sea Lion,
Grizzly Bear, Chameleon, Komodo Dragon, Stegosaurus, T-Rex, Raptor.

The Dragon and Black Jaguar forms are special. The Dragon was given to him by Azmodeus, a gift for returning the castle, Chronos, and Az back to the land of the living. The Black Jaguar is his godly shape. He will be fiercer in these two forms than any of the others.

Valkon's Watch - received from Chronos

The crow protects the watch so that no one else but Valkon can open it to see the face. Even if the clock is forcefully taken from his hands it will close up and the crow will prevent it from opening. It has large golden talons and black feet. And, yes, that's a tiny replica of Valkon's hat on the top of the watch.

Inside you would be able to see Valkon's skull behind the face of the clock. Very dim at first, but it becomes less transplant the closer to his remains he is. When is is very close, almost on top of them, the skull will look solid and 3d. The big hand on the clock gives the direction of either North (12), South (6), East (3), West (9). It won't point in the literal direction, just the hour. The little hand will point to the intermediate directions, the times will be anything between the hours previously listed. When the two hands line up than it is plainly in the cardinal direction. When all remains of Valkon are found the clock will change its time to the exact time of his death and the skull's eyes will glow blue ( the same color of his own eyes.) whenever he is around the full remains. once he steps away from them they will always point to where they are.

Likes : Animals. Books. Bones. Playing pranks. Wandering through the woods. Interested in playing a flute. Is looking for a bone flute he once saw a picture of.

Dislikes: Stupidity. Those who stand by idly.

Strengths : Cunning. Intelligent. Loyal if it is deserved. Observant.

Weaknesses : Temper. Sulks. Cares about animals.

Matings: Loa - Hawke, Fosull, Lacroix

Valkon's Animals

These are the creatures that are always around Valkon, helping him find things, keeping track of others, and even spying. They do whatever he wants them to do.

Clipper - a small male crow that sometimes sits on his shoulder.
Appears to be the runt of the group of crows.

Knack - a male crow that is very very smart.

Knick - a male crow that is Knack's sidekick.

Feyne - a male crow that helps but is rather lazy.

Lenore - a female raven that decided to join the crows on her own.
She's sturdy and carries heavier things.




The first image shows the current changes his rats have gone through based on the corruption from being in the shadow realm. Their coloring is the same as the other images, but they now have spikes on their tails, their ears are larger as are their teeth, and their feet have grown and nails have gotten longer, thicker, and sharper. They stand up on their hind legs and can actually walk upright a few feet at a time.

Frick is a black and gray rat that leads Valkon's rat pack. Two silver rings in his ear and on his tail note that he is the leader.

Frack is a male brown and white rat with gold earring and tailring. He backs Frick up entirely.

A female albino rat. She is all white except the tip of her tail is red.
