NOT DONE YET. JUST POSTING SO I WONT MISS SINCE THE DEADLINE IS TODAY
Name: Albot [Subject to change]
Gender: Male
Age: 28
Sexuality: Homoromantic Grey Asexual
Personality: Serious, anxious, thoughtful, curious, loyal, stubborn.
___________________________________________________
-Serious and Anxious: Serious most of the time, he seems more 'quiet' than anything. He prefers not to speak unless spoken to and goes out of his way to make sure that he can avoid as many conversations as possible. As is, he cannot honestly 'speak' in the way most people do. He's a mute, so talks via sign language.
-Thoughtful: If there is one thing that he likes to do it is THINK. More often than not he will seemingly be ignoring a conversation, only for you to find out later that he's 'dazed out' and is more interested than what is going on in his own head than what is going on right in front of him. Because of this, he is well known to be absentminded.
-Curious: He loves finding and exploring new hobbies and ideas. He also loves to read. His favourite adventure is to find new people who have gotten stuck or somehow traveled to the island he lives at and buying or borrowing books from them.
-Loyal: He will not betray you. He takes loyalty VERY seriously, because of this, he rarely ever forgets or forgives.
-Stubborn: Getting him to agree to disagree is practically an impossibility. He abhors the idea of giving in to ANYTHING- including any sexual urges he may have. Due to this, he's had a hard time finding a partner.

Name: Kwatoko [origin; Hopi, meaning "bird with big beak"] sometimes called Toko by friends.
Gender: Male
Age: 27
Height: 6'2
Weight: 180lbs
Sexuality: Asexual
Personality:
-Loyal; Toko is loyal to a fault. He can sometimes be naive, trying to see the good in all people, even though not all people are very good. Other members of the tribe can see how people sometimes abuse his loyalty and pray for him to see what is going on.
-Adventurous; Toko hardly sits still, and is rarely found in the tribe's home. He is often out somewhere, adventuring. He has a knack for finding little treasures and things he thinks are of high value (even if they aren't). He tends to push himself a little every time he goes on an "adventure", pushing further past the tribe's boundaries each time.
-Listener; Toko is a very good listener. If you tell him a story- he will listen. If you are coming to consult him- he will listen. All his life, he was told to listen, and as a child- he never did. But now that he is older, he understands the importance and meaning of truly listening.
-Stubborn; Toko can be very stubborn if things don't go his way. If he's stopped while trying to go for a walk or to go on a little adventure, he will try his hardest to make it so that he can go. He doesn't like it when others don't agree with him, but is starting to understand that yes, not everyone will agree.
-Focused; Toko often gets indulged in the things he starts- and will finish it. This can be both good and bad- good, because he will always finish anything he starts, no matter what it is. He focuses in on the things he wants to do and gets them done. It can be bad because he won't stop for, well... anything. At all. He can spend days upon days on a project and be hidden away in his room.
One of Toko's favourite hobbies is carving out Kachina. As a young child, he would spend countless hours finding pieces of wood to carve into crude little Kachina. The Kachina were beings of great might and power. They helped the tribe with farming, law and government, and other things. Over time, Toko began to carve them with great detail- painting and detailing them with precision and perfection. He often gives some of the Kachina he makes as gifts to the children of the tribe, which they take great delight in accepting.
Toko was meant to be the tribe's next shaman- but refused. He loved to help the people of the tribe, that was true. He enjoyed giving them his guidance, as well as healing them, yes. But it was nothing more than a time to time thing. He never truly thought he was cut out for being a shaman. Besides, how could he be a shaman when he's hardly ever there?
Short One-shot!
It was a sunny day. It was the middle of fall, and the leaves were in the midst of their beautiful colour change. They seemed to dance in the wind, with the combination of the sunlight, the ones that had changed looked like fire. They turned to fire and fell to the ground, only to be soon buried by a layer of cold snow.
A figure dashed through the forest, stirring up the leaves as they raced past. In their hands, they clutched some sort of green and tan orb.
"Toko!" Someone called out. The figure searched for the voice without stopping, looking for the source. They turned forward just in time to realize they were about to crash into-
Thud.
The figure tumbled backwards, landing in a pile of leaves behind them.
"Gee, what was that for, Kwatoko?" A girl said, rubbing her forehead with a whine, similar to that of a dog.
"It wasn't on purpose, Kasa." The figure got up. It was a boy. He wore a necklace and belt made of turquoise and feathers, as well as beaks of birds as a headdress and on both shoulders. He also wore a sort of capri-type pants of a green colour that ended just below the knees, and a pair of simple brown cloth shoes. He dusted himself off and put a hand to his forehead, running it over the skin. A prominent bump ran beneath his hand and he sighed in defeat.
The girl let out a howling laugh. "Hand it over, Toko." She said, thrusting a hand in front of her.
The boy frowned, placing the orb in the girl's hands. "I can't believe I lost again." He said, a hint of jealousy evident in his tone. The girl shrugged, tossing the orb between her hands. "It's just a game. It doesn't matter. You're amazing anyways! I would have stopped looking for you if you hadn't crashed into me like that."
"Whatever." The boy said, waving a hand in dismissal. "There's something I wanted to find over here. Are you coming?" He said, though he obviously didn't care whether she followed him or not.
"You're damn right I am. I always do." The girl says, rebellion evident in her booming voice. He rolled his eyes, walking further into the forest.
"Do you search around here often, Toko? This is pretty far from the tribe." The girl notes with a frown, arms crossed as they continue walking. Toko shrugs. They both already know that he does come this way often, and doesn't care. He prefers to stay as far away from the tribe as possible.
The pair continue walking until Toko stops in front of a gnarled tree. Its trunk bends and twists around the entrance of a dimly lit cave in the side of the mountain. Toko looks back at Kasa, that twinkle of adventure in his eyes, lit with passion from the sunset beginning in the background. Kasa sighs, stomping in front of him into the cave. He follows her excitedly.
"Wow."
The two seem to be no match for the cave's enormous size. It seems to take up most of the mountain- the cave of the roof being at least 20 feet higher than them, if not more. On the roof of the cave is a small hole, but enough to let in some light. The walls of the cave seem to be completely lined with clear crystals, which, in combination with the light flowing in from the roof of the cave, reflect a fiery set of dark warm colours. The colours shimmer on the floor as the leaves that somewhat shade the hole dance with the cool evening breeze. Toko looks at them with awe- but Kasa was looking at him.
"It's beautiful, isn't it? I could stay here forever..." Toko says, running his hand along the walls of the cave.
"Yeah, I guess so."
... A pause.
"Would- would you really rather be here? Than with the tribe, I mean."
The boy looked at her. In that moment, she already knew his response- and her heart shattered into a million pieces.
"Of course."
okay so in case the story seems a bit odd- it'll make sense once i submit my jackal entry as well!!

Name: Kasa [origin; Hopi, meaning "dressed in furs"]
Gender: Female
Age: 24
Height: 5'2
Weight: 150lbs
Sexuality: Pan
Personality:
-Upbeat; Kasa is a very upbeat person. She is lively and positive, a good energy to be around. She has the tendency to sort of "bounce off the walls" and be very annoying when she wants to be. She is good at working with others because of this trait of hers though, because she always manages to keep the team positive and lively like she is.
-Competitive; Kasa is also extremely competitive. Whether playing a game or fighting someone, her main goal is always "I must win". This gives her quite a fiery personality, and makes her a good choice for a partner in anything, unless your idea of competition is "it doesn't matter what happens, let's just have fun!"
-Bold; Kasa is one to put herself out there. She can be very brash and bold, often being the loudest person in the whole tribe. She isn't afraid to take risks, and is very confident and courageous. Her boldness is often seen in battle and while hunting, trying new techniques in the heat of the moment.
-Obnoxious; Kasa can be very full of herself and seemingly rude. When you dig deeper, you see that she isn't, but she does come off as very obnoxious on the surface.
-Emotional; Kasa, surprisingly, can be very very emotional. She gets attached to people easily and actively seeks out close emotional relationships with people who may not be willing. She has a much softer side that most people don't get to see, and often hides away. The few people that do see this side of her, though- are very important to her. She trusts them with her life and so much more.
Kasa is a hunter and warrior in the tribe. Her father used to say that she learned to hold a spear before she could even walk. Of course, this wasn't true- but a few people liked to jokingly play along and believe it. As a child, both her mother and father would train her in the way of the warrior and the hunter. At just nine years of age she was already a skilled hunter, but still had ways to go before she became the warrior she is today.
Kasa and Toko are relatively close friends. As children, Kasa always followed Toko wherever he went. Her heart was set on following him, and she was very curious about him. She was always intrigued by the things he did and the places he went. When they got older, though, Toko grew tired of her childish interest in him. He would always try and leave before she woke up, or hide from her. This broke her young heart. It wasn't love, it was curiosity. He later tried to explain to her that he was just trying to protect her and shelter her, but she didn't buy it. Nowadays, though, their friendship is restored.
Short One-shot!
The leaves; well, they burned. The colours were vivid and hurt your eyes if the sun was too bright. It was mid-autumn, and leaves littered the cold dirt. A girl wandered through the forest, eyes darting back and forth as if hunting. Her stance was low to the ground, and she wore a collection of dulled and greyed colours. Her most notable feature, though, was the coyote's tail that hung from a rope tied to her back and her long, dark nails. She had a pair of ears, again, likely taken from the same coyote.
Her head shot up as she heard the sound she'd been waiting for. There was a rustling of the leaves from a figure that grew closer, and she grinned. Her plan was about to take effect.
"Toko!"
One of the mimic birds from the forest imitated her voice, somewhere off to the right. She relaxed her stance as she continued walking, unaware of the proximity of the person she'd just tricked until--
Thud.
"Gee, what was that for, Kwatoko?" The girl said. She whined, and it sounded eerily akin to a dog. She rubbed her forehead and frowned, but on the inside, she was grinning.
"It wasn't on purpose, Kasa." The mysterious figure was probably a boy, and seemed to tower over the girl. The girl had a smug look on her face, and she crossed her arms. She watched him with a glint of triumph in her eyes as he dusted himself off and reached up to examine the bump that was forming on his forehead. That wouldn't clear up for a while, she thought, grinning.
She let out a laugh like a howl, "Hand it over, Toko." She said, un-crossing her arms to hold one out in front of her.
Clutched in the boy's arms had been an orb, made up of green and tan colours. It could have been anything- a fruit? A magical orb? The girl took it with pleasure, holding it up for a second to take in it's glory.
"I can't believe I lost again." The boy said, sounding defeated. The girl let out a half-hearted shrug. She was competitive- and they both knew that. "It's just a game. It doesn't matter. You're amazing anyways! I would have stopped looking for you if you hadn't crashed into me like that." It was an obvious lie. It was clear in her eyes.
"Whatever." The boy said, starting to wander off. "There's something I wanted to find over here. Are you coming?" He said, but he already knew her answer. Her eyes lit up, as they always did when he offered to take her somewhere.
"You're damn right I am. I always do." She seemed to emanate excitement. The boy always took her to exciting new places. For example, most recently, he had offered to show her his favourite place to sit and think. It was a lovely place, an indented piece of rock behind the waterfall by the tribe's home. She wanted to stay there all the time, but he warned her not to. It was his place, not hers. This always hurt. She wanted to be around him so much, but he always neglected her and denied any feelings, yet she still pursued him.
She followed him until they came to the entrance of a cave. His eyes twinkled as he looked back at her, and her heart skipped a beat. She knew that look- his look of adventure and mischief. She let out a sigh, trying to seem non-chalant. She marched into the cave, and he followed her with a scurry.
"Wow."
The two seemed to be no match for the cave's enormous size. It seemed to take up most of the mountain- the cave of the roof being at least 20 feet higher than them, if not more. On the roof of the cave was a small hole, but enough to let in some light.

Hope you enjoy I had fun writing it.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________
BASIC INFORMATION
Name~ Mielikki (pronounced- my-LEE-kee)/(origin-Finnic folklore)
Gender~ Feminine
Hour Glass Reads~ Unknown (ancient spirit) Human Form Shows~ 20yrs
Height~ 5'1 [She's on the shorter side]
Weight~ 104lbs
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________
BACKGROUND (most of this is true, but I added some fiction to it for my version of her)
According to old Finnish folklore, Mielikki is the princess of the forest. Daughter of Tapio [King of the woods]. Mielikki was a serene spirit that spent much of her time watching over her fathers kingdom and all the inhabitants. From the frail robin hatchling, to the mighty grizzly. No matter what breed of animal; nor how feral, she'd always care for them. At the beginning, animals coexisted in peace with one another. Mielikki would just help out with the small things, such as making dens for the burrowers, or plucking berries for the birds. But, as time went on, Tapio created more animals. Animals that weren't like any of the others that wandered the earth before. These animals would prey upon the weaker ones, killing them for food. Mielikki was saddened by the fact that these animals could not live beside the others. She spoke to her father about it, but he simply said: "If there are no animals to kill of the sick and injured, the earth will be over populated with impure creatures.". This statement made enough sense for Mielikki (in some weird, messed up way) to stop worrying about it.
Over enough time she learned to deal with the predators and the prey. She devised a system so neither group of animals dominated over the other. By hunting the animals herself, she gave the animals the most painless death of all. Mielikki would harness the spirit of the sacrificed critter and bestow it to her father. Tapio would then use the spirit to create a new offspring of that animal. The perfect cycle Mielikki though. No species would be killed off, and no species will starve. These animals could now live with one another, wile Mielikki handled the hunting.
As before Mielikki learned to live amongst the animals, and she was joyful for the way things looked. But also as before, Tapio wanted to create stronger, more dynamic creatures. On one dreary day, Mielikki was walking around with her favorite animal pack, the Jackal. (wink wink). She was helping the pack search for a new territory, when up ahead something caught her eyes. A strange hairless animal stood crouched over what was left of a elk. Horrified but intrigued at the same time, Mielikki shuffled closer. She continued to watch the sight before her unfold, soon a bunch of these hairless creatures emerged from out behind the brush. Their appearance was unlike anything she'd seen before too. They were hairless, give the mound of it on their heads. There attire consisted of small patches of what looked to be deer hide. The Jackal pack was becoming restless for waiting so long. They yipped and barked to get Mielikki's attention. The strange beast turned their scruffy faces towards the sounds. Mielikki tried desperately to get them to hush but it was hopeless the creatures were approaching. They leapt from out of the bushes, thick tree branches in hand. Mielikki and a few lucky Jackal's fled quick enough to escape the blows from the clubs. The others weren't so lucky.
When Mielikki met the predators before, they only killed if necessary and moderately. These killed for sport, with no purpose behind it. This ignited a fire inside Mielikki that made her enraged at her father for creating such a monster. She and the few Jackals that survived went strait to Tapio's throne, demanding an explanation. Tapio was growing in annoyance for his daughter questioning his every move. But, Mielikki was determined for a reason why her father would do this the animals. "They are the strongest creature out there, and they are so pure, why would I undo my master piece?' Tapio questioned. Mielikki explained to her father about what she saw in the woods and how brutal these things are. Now enraged at his arises, Tapio did the only logical thing he could think of, banish his daughter. For there was no way he would erase his beautiful creation. So he did.
Mielikki accepted her punishment and left her kingdom with her Jackal friends. Who she now lived among. She went back to where she first saw what her father called 'man', to collect the spirits of her fallen friends. She didn't dare give them to Tapio, so she infused them within her own soul. Giving her the agility of the Jackal, with a few aspects of them as well. Over time she learned that not all of these 'humans ' were killers. She even warmed up to a select few, who honored the animal after its death. She brought berries and lead them to the perfect living place. These men began to worship Mielikki for her kindness towards all living things. And Mielikki finally felt peaceful knowing that she can help man learn to hunt properly. Taught them to grow food so they didn't always relay on animals for food. She was happy, at least for now.
*let me know if I should continue*
