EnteiName: Mamoru Enten Owner: Summar Raaven About:
Personality: Background: Character Quirks:SuicuneName: Ōrora Sui Hime Owner: Thalea About:
Personality: As the eldest princess and heir of the Orora Dynasty, Sui grew up with a sense of entitlement, she believed that she deserved the best of certain commodities and respect from her peers and those beneath her in social class. This entitlement made her egotistical and proud. She has a difficult time hearing that she is in the wrong, due to this know it all attitude, many of the other nobles do not wish to converse with her during social gatherings. Her peer’s attitudes toward her did not dismay her, she saw it as a challenge to win their trust and when she sets her mind upon a task she does not fail.
She has a sharp tongue when she is agitated and tends to speak her mind. Sui tries to live her life as honestly as possible so that she can be seen as a worthy princess of the Orora Dynasty. The amount of people she considers to be her true friends can be counted with a single starfish’s five arms, for these individuals she would travel to the ends of the earth; she has a stead-fast loyalty to those that she considers to be her friend. Stubbornness comes with her egotistical view upon the world, only certain people are capable of making her see a different perspective.
In her dealings of court intrigue, nobles, and other aspects of her life, she is meticulous and a perfectionist. Everything must be done correctly and perfectly the first time, or it should not be done at all. To her failure is not an option, mistakes are costly and should be avoided at all costs.
The Orora family is a family of warriors, so as the eldest and heir, Sui is well versed in the art of combat. Since she was little she had been trained in the use of weapons and strategy.
Her life has been a gilded fishing net, it is why she holds such an egotistical view upon the world and is considered a spoiled princess. Her view of the world changed when she received news that the underwater kingdom which she called home was slowly dying due to pollutants in the water.
After learning that everything she loves will slowly start to die, Sui became determined to find a way to stop pollution from spreading. Legend told of a trident made of a special stone that could cleanse any water source. This treasure was vital to the survival of her herd and due to the rumors spreading across the land, she knew just the perfect sell sword for the job.
Character Quirks:
When bored, she has a tendency to blow bubbles and try to see if she can make any of them into rings as they head up to the water's surface. This is not very lady like, so she does it in private. She would rather do things herself than have others do it for her. That way she knows it will get done properly. RaikouName: Takeshi Rai Owner: Regal Renegade About:

EnteiName: Mamoru Enten Owner: Summer Raaven About:
Personality/Background: It started with a promise made long ago -- a promise to protect the ones who cannot protect themselves. Be the hero I know you are... Blessed with impressive brute strength and sheer size since foalhood, the promised seemed simple enough; he was a humble stallion, and to please Her, he'd do anything. The "weak", as he called them, seemed to flock to him once they realized he was their protector, and at first, he was happy to oblige. At first, all they'd ever really ask for was a traveling companion or a guard while they slept in dangerous woods. It was company like he never knew before, and his understanding of the world grew with every customer. It was a simple life, but an honorable one. It made him feel as though she was there with him.
And then...the true nature of the world started to rear it's ugly head. Soquili from all walks of life started to get greedy -- they wanted more from him. They expected more from him. He was the lowly sell-sword, they used him. He began to refuse their pleas for help, and they'd get angry. Feeling as though his promise was starting to fall apart, he went back to Her. He intended to beg for her forgiveness in failing his mission and stay with her...but when he got there....
She had died, just weeks before. There was no message left for him.
A bitter, angry, careless beast woke within him. He no longer refused the ridiculous and petty offers for help. He'd kill for pleasure, for valuables. It didn't matter. His customers started to take shape of the shadows that he lived in, and nothing mattered anymore. He hardly spoke -- doing his duty, taking his pay, and leaving, with little more than a grunt. Once or twice he swore he'd probably killed an innocent, simply because his customer paid him to, but he didn't care. The world was cruel, and he was the bearer of that pain.
Beyond the pain, Mamoru Enten is a lonely soul. A job that once gave him satisfaction -- a purpose -- now disgusted him. The Soquili he loved to help so dearly, disgusted him. He had no friends, no family, no place to call home. He'd do what he had to do, and move on...that was the life he had now. The life that the world had carved for him. Somewhere, however, deep inside that empty shell, lay a true warrior's heart, waiting for the redemption and peace that it so deserved. He had seen the world for what it truly was, but underneath all that darkness lived a hope...a hope that maybe something good could come of all this greed. He'd continue to let the world prove him right, until hopefully one day...it'd prove him wrong.
Character Quirks:
Although absolutely not a talker, and more of a passer-by grunter, if you do get him to talk it's quite difficult to shut him up. Years of heartache have pushed that friendly personality down deep....but it's there. An independent thinker, Enten rarely finds comfort in the assistance of others.

She would rather do things herself than have others do it for her. That way she knows it will get done properly. RaikouName: Takeshi Rai Owner: Regal Renegade About:
Personality/Background: A difficult life, one that is not so easily chosen. The spirits did not bless her with the advantages of an easy foalhood; Rai has had to learn early on how to maintain a life she could call her own -- make a name for herself. In the beginning, it was challenging, the world unkind to those who were lost. It darkened her, she began to see things as they were, and not as how a playful usdia foal should hope they'd be. A difficult life, yes, but something she had come to master. If this was to be what the spirits had granted her, she'd spit it back in the spirit's face.
Rai cares not for the pleasantries of others, having been taught that nothing was handed to you. They were all do wrapped up in their perfect little worlds, that she slipped right under their noses, to to speak. She paid them no mind, they paid her no mind. It was easier that way. Life didn't happen while you were worrying about the opinion of another, and she was far too busy to stop and smell the roses. A life of hardship had brought her a life of thievery, taking from whomever whatever she could -- without so much of a second thought.
A life also without much companionship, Rai worked alone. Her strictly direct, unphased, and blunt demeanor put her in a world of uncompromised independence. It had, on many occasion, allowed for her to have the upper-hand in a game of cat-and-mouse -- always one step ahead of her supposed victim. A mare of many hidden tricks and talents, being the master of her game is the ultimate payback. Deception is just a fancy word for power.
She took on the guise of healer, after getting bored of the games she was playing. No one would suspect a healer was up to no good; a healer was trusted, welcomed -- and they were all easily manipulated.Though now well versed in the art of healing, she has taken her knowledge and twisted it to darker purposes. After all, killing someone is much...simpler than healing them, something she discovered long ago, in her distant and forgotten past.
She garnered the handle of assassin medic whilst performing her trade, and she adores the name. Though, perhaps darkness is not the only shade in her heart.
Character Quirks:
She collects trinkets from those she has killed or manipulated....the ribbons and bows that decorate her body? Prizes, for a job well done. Although accidental, her knowledge of the power of healing has grown exponentially, making her a powerful ally, if you're lucky. Story:

Many moons ago the Earth showed her displeasure to those who would abuse her bounty. Fires raged, lightning storms flashed, and floods corroded the land. Three soquili stood together to face the wrath of the land, they were the complete opposite of each other, as fire is to water as water is to lightning, yet they stood together and in the end, died together. The Gods must have been smiling upon them, for they were able to get the fires under control and limit the damage of the floods. However, fate had other plans for the three of them. As they tried to contain the blaze, a column of fire surrounded the three of them, providing them with no escape. Death came to those who risked their lives to save others and with their last breath; rain began to fall, dousing all the flames. As the rain cleared and the clouds parted, a large orange bird flew over the site of our fallen heroes. It is said that the bird was Ho-oh and that when the time comes, those heroes will once again walk this earth. “Will they come now grandpa? Now that the earth is dying again? Will the heroes save us all?” “We shall see little one, we shall see.” ←═══════════════╬☾•·☉·•☽╬═══════════════→
The land was dying. A black blight was taking root and destroying anything that it touched. Herds upon herds were migrating away from the blight-touched land, but as they moved, the reach of the disease spread even further. Each herd within the land felt the strain of the blight; resources in previously plentiful forests were wearing thin, resulting in overfishing in the seas by those who consume meat. Rumors of mythical objects that could save the land spread like wild fire as well as rumors of soquili claiming to be one of the heroes of old who will save them all for a nice (hefty) price. Orora Sui Hime knew that a mythical object or a magical plant would not solve all their problems, it just did not seem logical and it left too many variables unanswered. However, none of that mattered now, she had to figure out where the source of the blight was coming from and then she could n** it in bud so to speak. She had been listening desperately to each rumor, to each tale a new refugee told. One rumor in particular rarely deviated in its telling, it told the same thing repeatedly, the origin of the blight is where they fell. He was tired of this, the constant take from those whose greed blinded them to the suffering around them. The blight only seemed to be a catalyst for more greed and disreputable deeds. Mamoru Enten did not care if the people hired him to do “dirty” jobs, but they could at least not be assholes about it. He was a sell-sword, but the job no longer brought him the feeling of accomplishment as it did when he first made that promise to Her. Nevertheless, this blight business was getting on his nerves and the only lead he had about the origin was something about it all began where the heroes took their stand. There was nothing left, just invaluable pieces of junk soquili left behind as they fled the blight stricken land. What kind of thief or assassin would she be if she no longer had anything to steal or people to kill? Something needed to be done about this blight or her reputation would be ruined. Takeshi Rai glowered at the black rot covering the trees and grass around her. Word had it that she could find the cause of the blight at the graves of those who appeased the mother’s wrath. The princess did not know that the rumor meant, but she did know something had to be done before the misery of her people became more intolerable. She would follow the source of the rumors, they all seemed to come from east of the sea. Getting to the origin of the blight may be difficult as she could only travel via water, but with a will, there is a way. Sui knew her journey would be long and arduous, but it was her duty as the eldest daughter of the Orora Dynasty to save her people from this blight. As she swam, she began to notice a less fish in the stream and less birds in the air. The sky appeared devoid of any life. It gave off the eerie sense she was all alone, which was broken by a single bird flying overhead, its screeched words sending shivers down her spine, “Three heroes stood, and three heroes fell, only three can make the land right again.” Enten marched across the soquili barren land, it reminded him of stories of old battles where nothing lived and no movement was seen except for the birds enjoying their feast. He had set off on this journey in an annoyed rage and seeing the desolate land has done nothing to appease his anger, instead it only sparked more anger at those who would abuse their power in times like this, when suffering was apparent throughout the land. The soquili who he did pass appeared as if the walking dead, they had hallow eyes, and a cloak of despair that seemed to thicken with each step. As they walked, they mumbled “And the three shall meet, where three met their end, giving rise to a new beginning.” Yes, she was an assassin and a thief, but she was not heartless. She posed as a healer because it made for perfect cover and no one suspected ill intent from those who appeared to want to alleviate ailments. What the blight was doing to the plants and land made Rai’s heart ache. Black rotten death was evident through the forest as once vibrant trees began to wither and die. Plants that Rai knew by name for healing were speckled with black flecks. Dead animals sprinkled the land where they had sampled some of the diseased plants. One fox, near the gates of death looked up at her with his big golden eyes, “the breath of those who fell calls to those who will once again unite.” The three would be heroes traveled the land, separately but each with the same purpose, to rid the land of this disease. As they traveled, they continued to hear whispers of the origins of the blight. How three brave soquili stood together to face the wrath of the earth and how their sacrifice brought prosperity until now. Where they fell to the fury of the earth is where the unwitting heroes will find the solution to the problem. Many moons ago, three soquili stood up to the Earth’s displeasure. They represented the lightning bolt that started the fire, the fire that ravaged the land, and the rains that calmed the fire with their sacrifice. The three stood valiantly together and when the inferno engulfed them, they knew that it was not the end and they shall see each other again. The time has come for the heroes to be reborn, memories of their past have been lost, but the same sense of purpose guides them all. Three have united and together they can save the land once again. Due to the destruction many moons ago, the landscape had changed, it no longer looked the same as when the heroes fell. In the west a river cut close to the center of the glade, a large previously lush forest marked the south and a barren grassland marked the north. Each arrived from different directions, one from the west, north, and south. As they neared the site, the land appeared to come alive. The river grew warm and appeared untouched by the disease. A breeze ruffled the mane of the stallion and previously decaying grass ticked his legs. The branches of the forest shook as if waking from a long slumber and welcomed the usida as she approached. Another presence washed over the three of them, one of love, acceptance and relief. A sense of déjà vu filled the three soquili; they had been here before at a distant time as different people. The three stood around the origin of the blight, bemused by each other’s presence. A silent realization washes over them, “where three have perished, three shall revive the earth”. With a nod of agreement, the three of them they met at the center. A caw fills the air as a shadow of a bird flies overhead, a streak of orange glows in the suns light before it vanished behind the clouds. Rai, Sui, Enten, three individuals so vastly different from one another, united to help heal the land. The process was extensive and grueling, since there was no magical cure all for the situation they faced. Soquili from all over the land came and helped the three resurrected heroes to restore life to the barren earth. Many moons later, when the earth had returned to her lush state, legends of the three continued to spread. How much of it truth, or how much of it tale, only the three shall know.
