Race || Geian Gender || Female Art by Peppermint Coffee, Color by Lilia
Official adoptions are rehomed and back stocked characters. We like to see our characters be used and it breaks our hearts for them to be sitting around in our folders collecting dust.
Availability
|| We release adoptables about once a month (except when there is an official event going on).
|| Owners will be able to apply for the adoptable for one week after announcing the new arrivals. After the one week, the entries will be looked over and one winner will be picked. This winner will be able to claim the adoptable and continue with being critiqued from the staff until approved.
|| Like any quest, you must have an open slot in order to enter for this character.
|| Official adoptions come with a price. The art is already completed and ready to go, so while it's not as expensive as a custom, the price is 250mil. We like to think that this limits applications to dedicated owners.
|| The price will not be collected until an owner has been announced, but will not be returned if you fail to set up their journal.
|| Owners can only claim one adoptable every 6 weeks. (This timer starts from when their adoptable quest was officially approved.)
|| If one month has passed after the approval of an official adoptable and the owner has not completed their journal set-up, the adoptable will be removed and put back into the adoption rotation.
|| Please submit all applications for this character in this thread. (Applications are the character quest forms.)
|| Applications close on 01.22.17. Once closed, managers will review and choose one owner to continue on with the application process.

Character's Name || Agnartaki 3 Base Traits||Honest - Playful - Nosy
Personality ||
Agi will happily bowl people over to get to a good story. This, the pursuit of stories, has been her mission as long as she could remember. The use of truth in story was a revelation to her, and she now pursues that truth - and the spicy story behind the truth - with a dogged passion and dedication to delivering good writing to the Belrean public.
This usually manifests as her being very bold - or reckless - and extremely off-puttingly nosy about everything. She wants to know everything, from the names of objects and animals to the significance of cultural rituals, to how to make ‘whatever that is’, to personal details about someone’s life. Her gestures are big and bold, her speech energetic and eloquent. Sometimes she appears affected or false. But this is actually her true nature, unrestricted and unrestrained and unconcerned about who she might offend.
In fact, she never lies. She may stretch the truth or embellish a little where it serves her stories and her personality, but she never ever EVER lies. She abhors lying. It is worse than murder as sins go in her eyes. She pursues and delivers the truth, as true as she can provide, in as interesting a way as she can provide, for as long as she can annoy people and still survive.
History || Agi writes for a story-paper, (name as yet undtermined OOCly!) a young invention of Belrea that takes advantage of paper-making technology and magi-tech presses to produce and disseminate the latest knowledge - scientific and more ephemeral - to the Belrean people. It’s circulation is based on couriers and messenger beasts, but it manages to reach the hands of many people.
Agi has always wanted to tell people about the world. From a very young age she tried to catch the attention with others by telling them tales about her new discoveries. Once upon a time, she used to make them up. To lie.
And then her father was murdered. The cause - and the culprit - are known to her and are being punished, and it was an ordinary person who killed for the ordinary dramas of life. Yet, in the mind of a child, she felt that her lies and stories caused it. Though she knows better now, of course, Agi hasn’t lied since.
Her mother was understandably shaken. That the culprit was a close family friend made things worse. Agi’s family situation began to list, as such things did, and she coped by digging deeper into her world and finding more stories to tell. Though her family was more affiliated with the Sector of Leisure ( unusual for Geians, but it had become a tradition for their family), and though they had connections in the Sector of Safety, it was the Sector of Communication that Agi felt drawn to.
She found a mentor (Name not yet determined) who became her editor, hiring her onto his paper as a journalist. Writing for the paper gave her both an escape from her family life and stability in her own, and she enjoyed (mostly) every moment of writing: Research was fascinating, her persistence led her to juicy interviews, and her storytelling ability let her put out stories that her editor was happy to print.
To further her education and make a name for his paper, her editor put her name in to be sent on the zepplin to the new land. To her great frustration – though to no one's surprise – she was not chosen for the trip.
Filled with equal parts resentment and fascination, Agnartaki is trying for a spot on the next vessel, or the next. In the meantime, she wants to report on local stories with a passion, bringing the news to everyone... and maybe, one day, that could truly be everyone...
