★ Shakespeare ★
------------------------------------------------------
Nickname ► Shae
DoB ► February 14
Gender ► Male
Temperament ► Romantic Hero
Title ► The Pearlescent Prince
Stages ► Thicket | Fawn | Yearling | Original Adult
Clan ► Delta
Fav. Foods ► Berries & Fish
Hated Foods ► Nothing
Hobbies ►
Singing ballads
Collecting pretty trinkets
Playing matchmaker
Personality ► Optimistic, Lucky, Steadfast
Flaws ► Emotionally detached, Shae loves "the idea of love" but will run from the actual act of "being in love". He can easily distract people away from finding him suitable if only to protect his fragile heart.
Abilities ► Shae has a melodic voice that when raised in song can ease the emotional pains of those who listen.
History ► Born from Iris and Farfalla, Shakespeare has had an uneventful life. Growing up in the glen with his little sisters, he has always been a constant presence to the girls. Although overbearing at times he means well, now as an adult he hopes to actually find his one true love or at least help others if only to see Herla smiling in love.
Guardian ► Juliette Merryweather, a 22 year old young woman who died of a terminal illness, has somehow latched on to this hopeless romantic. While she is quite certain Shakespeare has yet to notice her she plans to make herself known but for now she enjoys his silly antics; laughing whenever he provides entertainment. ( Shae only vaguely realizes he's hearing laughter whenever an embarrassing situation arises. )

★ Rumaty ★
------------------------------------------------------
Nickname ► Ru
DoB ► July 14, 2011
Gender► Male
Temperament ► Enigmatic
Title ► Desert Healer
Stages ► ---
Clan ► Mountain
Fav. Foods ► Devil's Claw, Grayling, Rainbow Trout
Hated Foods ► Sunflowers, Tumbleweeds
Hobbies ►
Bathing in the sun
Mountain climbing
Studying plants and their effects
Personality ► Passionate, Calm, Mysterious
Flaws ► Devious and secretive
Abilities ► Can tell a poisonous plant from one that could have restorative properties. Is easily able to put together remedies from various plant life around him.
History ► Coming from an exotic land, Rumaty decided at an early age that he wanted to explore the world and its many gifts. From early on he knew he enjoyed the effects of plants and flowers, what they smelled like, how they grew and what they provided health wise for his kind. This decision was cemented in a near-miss which resulted in his eating a poisonous berry that almost took his life. An elder of his former herd was adverse in various plants and their effects. By counteracting the effects with his knowledge, Rumaty lived to see another day and from then on he latched on to the elder. The two shared a unique bond which could only be broken by the elder's old age. Passing peacefully one night, the elder made a remark to which Rumaty ponders today. "Have you ever wished to live an eternity in this world?" Though Rumaty could not answer his mentor then, he decided to set out on his travels to find the answer. It is without a doubt his elder only meant to ask rhetorically but Rumaty is far too serious a hart to take things at face value. As a result his search has led him to believe the existence of an 'Eternal Flower'.
Guardian ► Nanine died of heart failure at age 45, she has been with Rumaty since previous travels near Dead City which would eventually lead him to Deep Forest. Her sudden appearance was a shock to the apprehensive hart but as his travels continued he realized the wisdom and insight she provided not to mention the joyful conversations they shared. Whenever left to his own devices he's never been too shy to ask for her advice. Eager to assist, Nanine is by far a true friend and mother figure.

Nickname ► ---
DoB ► March 7, 2012
Gender ► Male
Temperament ► Arcane
Title ► Battered Veteran
Stages ► ---
Clan ► Delta
Fav. Foods ► Apples, Fish
Hated Foods ► Shrub
Hobbies ►
Stargazing and watching the sunset/sunrise
Gathering intel and making contingency plans
Camouflage (for some reason he likes to do this just for fun)
Personality ► Reserved, Resourceful, Suspicious
Flaws ► Kamuy suffers post traumatic stress and tends to be quite jumpy. He's suspicious of everyone until proven otherwise and even then he's still not quite at ease.
Abilities ► Combat ready at a moments notice, Kamuy still holds true to his skills learned during the war.
History►
Guardian ► A war veteran like himself, Booker Wallas was taken out by an enemy mortar when sweeping a "supposed" abandoned camp. Always throughout Kamuy's time during the Talon Wars, Booker has been at his side, whispering the ideal code of conduct when trapped, captured or even when the odds were against him. Never one for giving up, his constant drive to push Kamuy to his limits has ultimately given the Herla much to be thankful for. Though they both are quite disturbed and suspicious of most anyone, Booker has opted to help ease Kamuy's frazzled mind from war and help him into a normal peaceful life.

[CONCEPTS - From this post onward are possible concept Herla I'd like to bring into the mix. I'm willing to pay Gaia gold or Real cash, name your price. ]  Quote:
[name] Leeloo
[gender] Female
[temperament] Vivacious
[base] Feminine
[type] Forest Herla
Yellow, green, orange, teal
[markings] Monarch related designs on her back, shoulders, neck and face.
[tail] Similar to the tail shown in the picture.
[horns] No horns but I'd like to keep the antennas that are shown in the picture.
[wings] Monarch design as shown in the picture; they can be small then shown.
[extra] Her hair should be in a ponytail with the coloring provided. Her nose is rather small and pink like a kittens I'd like to keep that small detail. Other than that the artist can add or remove what they like.
[accessories] Ear cuff and hair clips are optional. I'd prefer simpler earrings.
MEANING► Opposite spelling of "Lilou" meaning "Lilies".
TEMPERAMENT ► Vivacious
TITLE ► TBA
SEXUALITY ► Heterosexual
GENDER ► Female
FAV. FOOD ► Strawberries
HATED FOOD ► Fish, mushrooms
HERLA TYPE ► Forest
HOBBIES ►
Pampering Cathexis and stroking his ego.
Naming all her butterfly companions that follow her around.
Daydreaming of cheesy romantic scenarios.
PERSONALITY► Leeloo is the diplomat of the Herla race, able to put herself in the 'hooves' of others, she sees things through another Herla's point of view. She's the type that always wants to make things right and have balance and harmony in her life, surrounding herself with the lives of the herla close to her. Leeloo has captivating charm, elegant taste and she is easy to like due to her eager-to-please, easygoing nature. In return for her amazing ability to be a good listener, sooth and calm people, she expects admiration. She'll gather a group of Herla, everyone will become friends then she will be in the center of the group. She likes the attention and the admiration for the group that she's brought together. Leeloo is very intelligent, she often hides this inside her easygoing exterior. Expressing her intelligence through creativity, mostly involved in some sort of artistic or creative pursuit. Many overlook just how intelligent she is for her vivacious, flamboyant approach. Leeloo loves variety and different situations, she'll welcome change easily and without fuss. She loves luxury which results in surrounding herself with beautiful things and can be rather fussy over her own appearance. She loves upscale and classy places, persons and objects. While hard working, her goals are aimed toward pleasing others so they find her incredibly captivating and will always want to protect her.
FLAWS ► Leeloo strives to be a good Herla inside but her judgment is heavily clouded by the vainglorious lifestyle her companion has eked out for her. Developing a pervasive psychological dependence on others, Leeloo suffers DPD a dependency of others. Her world revolves around pleasing and using others to lessen her anxieties of self loathing and uselessness. So long as she is needed and protected from the harsh world around her, she is safest. If forced to make her own decisions she will break down, clinging to the first person that is willing to make all those worries go away. Despite intelligence she simply cannot do without having someone to support her decisions and give their second opinion if not taking the lead altogether.
ABILITIES ► Called spirit sight Leeloo can attach her spirit to that of another animal seeing with their eyes what they witness. This is conducted through a mild comatose state, leaving her highly vulnerable to attack. It is a learned ability which she can perfect over time but for now, has only used it by accident on a few occasions with her travels. She prefers to use her butterfly companions as they are smaller and leave her less fatigued upon waking with milder headaches.
HISTORY ► Leeloo was born from a descendant of Flutters who were chosen to breed outside of the herd. Her mother Lanilui and an unknown buck provided an eventful life for her up until the day they were to return home. However, the group never made it home when a landslide swept them from the cliffs they traveled leaving everyone in shambles. Leeloo was the only survivor left with an unsightly fate, that was until she had been found by a beautiful buck. Tattered and broken she tried following the buck around, even with her crippled leg she did her best to keep up even though he seemed bent on leaving her behind. Through time the buck warmed up to her (and her many praises of his beauty) and decided would raise the young fawn. Although nothing could be done with her broken leg, it eventually healed, though crookedly, giving Leeloo a permanent hop to her steps. She doesn't mind it so much, and continues to travel with her companion to this day, relying heavily on his judgment and reluctance to protect her.

 Quote:

MEANING► the process of investment of mental or emotional energy in a person, object, or idea.
TEMPERAMENT ► Cavalier
TITLE ► TBA
SEXUALITY ► Heterosexual
GENDER ► Male
FAV. FOOD ► Passion Fruit, Clovers, Fish
HATED FOOD ► Strawberries
HERLA TYPE ► Mountain
HOBBIES ►
Gazing upon himself in lakes, streams and reflective surfaces.
Collecting pretty bobbles, trinkets and treasures to enhance his beauty.
Basking in the compliments and praises he receives from Leeloo and others.
PERSONALITY► Cathexis always thinks of himself, strongly projecting his personalities onto others along with being self-oriented. He tends to venture out into the world and leave impressions on others that he's exciting, vibrant, and sociable. Cathexis tends to live the adventurous life and likes to be the center of attention but rightly so since he's a natural confident leader. He is enthusiastic about his goals and enjoys the thrill of the hunt, "wanting is always better than getting", is his philosophy. He's very impulsive and usually does not think before he acts or speaks. Too often Cathesis will say whatever pops into his head and usually ends up regretting it later.
FLAWS ► Aside from his vanity he thinks of nothing else. If it doesn't benefit him in the long run, then helping others is not on his agenda of things to do. He can be overly dramatic and tends to start situations between various Herla if only to entertain his bored little heart. In the long run, he does not know the meaning of love and may never find his true heart.
ABILITIES ► Cathexis has a way with words, it may not be a power per se, but he can talk his way out of almost any situation. Almost! He also tends to use his outward beauty as means to snare hearts and instill trust, this is his sharpest tool as he'll use that trust to crush his enemy without batting a pretty lash of an eye.
HISTORY ► Cathexis comes from a far exotic land nearing the mountains. Herla such as himself, come from a long line of beauty, grace and prestige. As such it is no wonder the hart has become so vain and self-centered. From his fawnhood he has been praised and dotted on, catered to and lavished in nothing but the finest. While not of a royal or noble class, he has never wanted for anything and in so doing, he has never been curious of the world outside of his clan. On one night during a brutal storm, he was separated from his herd when transferring from their sacred bathing nook. Left in the harsh lands to fend for himself he found shelter in a nearby cave where he would wait out the storm for three long days. Thankful for the reprieve, he quickly returned home eager for the lavished life, praises and worried faces he knew he would find there. However, upon his return, he found not worried faces but indifferent ones. They stared at him as if he were trash, perhaps a ghost, or worse yet nothing more than a memory. There new Adonis had been chosen the night prior, a thicket had arisen from one of the hinds who had been expecting. The new fawn was far more beautiful and graceful then Cathexis, ultimately resulting in his mixed heart. Learning his lesson from then on, that a heart was fickle and it could change without a care in the world, he fled from his clan, never to return. It was then he realized the world was cruel that no one lived in it he could trust... at least that's what he wanted to believe until he stumbled upon a young fawn, with a lovely disposition. She had broken her leg from a fall and looked to be on her own. Taking care of the young fawn brought Cathexis some solace to his torn heart but he would not love nor trust, it was with Leeloo's praises that Cathexis kept her near, her eagerness to please him that he realized maybe there was one person he could care for but if she betrayed him... As a result, they travel in tandem searching for a place the two could be happy and free from their struggles.
