Strays/Characters
The Good
Meela
A young orphaned lupian of 12 years old with a big mouth and an even bigger attitude, Meela is quite sassy and energetic and has a strong sense of justice that she tries to guide her (and other’s) actions by. She’s mostly an annoyance and a burden to Feral, but she has brief, almost unintentional moments, where she actually helps the situation. She is constantly troubled by a painful past, but tries not to let it interfere with her current life. She is also prone to having strange dreams that don’t always reflect her past or memories and often confuse her.
- Kid Sidekick: To Feral, however unwillingly on his part.
- Morality Pet: To Feral.
- Parental Abandonment: Her father is killed before the start of the story. Seeing how it is her brother raises her after that, it can be assumed that her mom isn't around either.
Feral Heiss
Feral is a lone mercenary and bounty hunter with a past unknown to even himself, completely on his own with no apparent ties to any one or any place. He is a mute and cannot speak, so he communicates through his expressions and wild hand gestures, which most people rarely understand. Not much is known about how he lost his voice or the cause of his red eye, mostly due to his inability to communicate decently. He is rather rough and serious, but not completely without heart, often tolerating Meela’s presence despite the irritation she causes.
- Boat Lights: He has one green eye and one red eye.
- Bounty Hunter
- Covered with Scars
- I Work Alone: At least until Meela showed up.
- Silent Snarker
- The Speechless
- Unsound Effect: Often used to emphasise whatever Feral is trying to convey.
- Visible Silence
Prince Holland Perdicus Lathalinethetul
Holland is a long-time friend of Feral’s. He is cheerful and friendly, but is rather erratic. He flounces around with childish abandon and likes to push others into activities he believes will prove enjoyable. Despite his endearing personality, he often seems to be blatantly hiding things, glossing over them with a smile and a change of subject. One has to wonder if his true motives are as they seem or well-hidden behind a playful grin.
- Spontaneous Weapon Creation: Bow and arrow!
- Trickster: Definitely smarter than he acts.
- White-Haired Pretty Boy
The Bad
Lord Liohnel Mithrennon
An imposing, stern-looking lyrian who has been quickly climbing in social status and fame and causing trouble for Prince Holland and his family. Mithrennon preaches about elevated society with a pure existence, but behind the scenes he endorses the discrimination of anything he perceives to be a lesser being; humans, half-breeds and harmless demons.
- Evil Chancellor / President Evil: His intended position, it seems.
- Fantastic Racism: Towards any 'lesser beings', including lupians.
Visrial
A felian presumably under the employ of Lord Liohnel Mithrennon, who is most likely Mithrennon's head of security, right hand man, or otherwise fairly important. We don't know much about him though.
- The Dragon: To Mithrennon?
The Neutral
Kosher Novel
A tough old man who is more than rough around the edges, Kosher is Feral’s freelance manager and handles all of his assignments. He has an established working dialogue with Feral and generally only gives him jobs suited to his traits. He makes no secret of his disdain for Meela and enjoys berating her, often goading her on for the fun of it.
Piper Jaleuq
Smart, sly, and a talented thief, Piper is a risky ally at best. Always on the look out for the next sucker that will fall for her charms, she delights in conning practically anything from anybody, sometimes just for kicks. Possessing a somewhat tender and sweet personality aids her deceptions, though it is easy to tug on her heartstrings, something she sees as an inconvenient fault in herself.
- Affectionate Pickpocket
- Blow You Away: Wind powers, go!
- Trickster: By way of Distracted by the Sexy and other such wiles, although not quite Instant Seduction in most cases.
The Past
Tannor
Tannor is Meela’s brother and seems to have been in charge of her care before she ended up on her own after he died. She speaks of him often but the circumstances of his death are unclear. According to Meela he was smart, resourceful and a wonderful older brother. When Meela was younger he often used his limited skills to try to craft toys for her, a trait Meela remembers quite fondly.
Mal
Mal is a rambunctious young lupian that occassionally appears in Meela’s dreams. She seems to know him quite well in them, but has no idea who he is when she is awake. Mal is excitable and somewhat foolhardy, often dragging Meela into trouble or even danger in pursuit of reckless fun.
