Welcome to Gaia! ::

To learn more about the Ieldi, visit Kyendi by clicking the image below:

Name: Kokoro
Gender: Male
Age: Recently reborn
Appearance: He has a narrow face framed with untidy black hair about halfway down his throat (a grin almost always plastered on his face), blue-green eyes.. And thin white feather-stripes running from his nose, under and over his eyes, to his hair -- not to mention the blue-green wings extending to white feathers on his arms and his colorful white-and-blue tail feathers. Of course, he had a deep, rich blue throat as well, having taken on the markings of a present-day blue-throated hummingbird.
Personality: Kokoro is anything but your run-of-the-mill Ieldi. His hyperness and tendancy to destroy fragile objects (only in an attempt at doing something helpful, though) formed to create a walking disaster. He's very hyper, mostly due to the fact that he has a fast metabolism and has to be fed every ten minutes, AND his main diet is sugar and honey. You could say he has a sweet tooth. Like most sugar-hyped children, he has a needy disposition and expects most people to cater towards his needs.





[still under construction]

Angie herself owns few photos and doesn't like cameras in general, for one reason or another. While she keeps her few private photos tucked away, she's quite willing to show photos of her relic friend to anyone who asks.



Ooooh! It's..Bob! My beloved.. stump.. thing! Isn't he lovely? I wonder what kind of bird those feathers are from, though..



It's.. it's, um.. the dude. the thing. spirit. person. midget. thing. hello.

Cerena -- Angie's acclaimed 'onee-san', or older sister, and Bob's 'aunt'. It doesn't seem as if they're actually related at all, though. It would certaintly be like Angie to flag down some random stranger in the street and claim them to be her sister, wouldn't it? Even so, Cerena seems to care for Angie, despite her oddness.




Sana -- one of Angie's first companions, a hyperactive air sprocket given to her by an odd person. Angie seems to have a fierce liking for it, though, despite its constant (often destructive) cries for attention. It's rather jealous of Bob for claiming the attention that was supposed to be for HER.




Iol -- a strange Gembird whose egg Angie stumbled upon while exploring. He's rather mad at her at the moment, though, because when she ran away, she forgot about him, and he had to fly all over Gaia trying to find her. He likes to ride on top of Sana, though well enough away from its core gem so he doesn't go for an unexpected fly..

dec. 06 -- angie comes to the village tree, only to see ruin..
jan. 06 -- after receiving a note from karasu, angie enters the salbasi area, meets a few of her new neighbors, and confuses herself to no end. also receives a house and a mysterious relic, whom she has christened 'bob'..
jan. 09 -- after finding out what exactly she was in sabilasi for, angie goes back to Gaia to do research, nearly faints when she sees the details, and has her onee-san move in with her for backup..
feb. 25 -- a.. a spirit has arrived! (it's strangely quiet, though.)

blue-throated hummingbird (lampornis clemenciae)

The blue-throated hummingbird is one of the largest (if not THE largest) of the hummingbird family; it can grow up to 5.25 inches, and the males of the species can weigh up to 8.4 g. Most hummingbirds only reach up to 3-3.5 inches in length. This species of hummingbird is often aggressive and bold.

Blue-throated hummingbirds are rapid fliers whose wings make an audible humming sound as they fly (which is probably why they are called hummingbirds). A hummingbird's main diet consists of sugar and nectar, and their metabolisms are extremely fast, which means that they have to be fed every ten minutes or so, so they probably wouldn't make a very good pet, unless you have a lot of time and money to burn.

Blue-throated hummingbirds are often seen in mountain valleys near the Mexican border, and their nests are always sheltered from rain and sun. They're generally located near water, where flowering vegetation abounds.

The (adult) male is unmistakable. Green back and crown, dark gray breast, bright blue gorget, dark blue tail with white outer tips. Thin white stripes above and below the eyes. In poor light, though, the gorget looks almost black. There has been some slight deviation on Kokoro's plumage, though, so don't expect him to look exactly like that.

Male hummingbird behavior is every woman's worst nightmare. The female locates a male, after getting his attention he will fly 75-150' in the air and then drop like a bomb, bill down, within 1-2" of her head. Mating last 3-5 seconds, then he disappears. The female finishes her nest, lays the eggs, and tends the young alone. (..o_O...uh, that's definately not going to be included in his personality, there.)

The only North American species known to sing is the Anna's. Most hummingbirds don't sing, but have a series of squeaks.

If I find out more about the species that I think is important, I'll record it here.

the closer you are to the light, the bigger the shadow you cast.. these are the words spoken by Cerena, but what do they hold for the future?

while reading this diary, keep this in mind to avoid confusion.
when angie is looking at things from her viewpoint, the font colour used will be gray.
when kokoro is looking at things from his own viewpoint, however, they will be in blue.
if a dream is being detailed or an outside party's POV is being described, then the text will be black. (it's easy enough to see who's dreaming based on content, so don't worry about that.)

this is to avoid confusion, because I often switch viewpoints when writing to try and depict events in a certain way.

if you'd like to post for any reason (dropping something off, playdates, so on), please contact me first, through pm or aim. (if you decide to im me, though, please tell me who you are so I don't get confused x_X;..) The only exceptions are the kyendi staff.

if anything further should come up, I'll note them here.
