- Sirius Revlis - 01-09-2011 Character Name: Sirius Revlis Character Birthdate (including year): April 2, 2008 Whether s/he is a regular wolf or a Luperci: Luperci Ortus Species: Hybrid of wolf, coyote, and dog. (53% Canis lupus, 38% Canis latrans, 9% Canis familaris) Gender: Male A secondary form of contact (AIM, MSN, Y!M): pottedsky@gmail.com">spottedsky@gmail.com Currently played characters: Primary is Alyssum de Fonte Initial post: [html] Table by Sie OOC: sswm: 602 The moon arched into its throne in the middle of the bright sky, surrounded by what seemed to be millions of tiny, pinprick-sized stars. The lunar orb was less than halfway full, and it looked like a smile of a Cheshire cat smirking in amusement. Though it was thin now, it was gaining more light, and it won't be long until it was rounded and full. Though it was a spectral sight, with frost lining the ground already and the rays of the moon catching in the tiny shards of ice and making them sprinkle brilliantly, the lack of the warm of the sun made the air crisp with the bitter cold. If one was stuck out in middle of this chilly, winter's night without being prepared, it wouldn't take long for nature to reclaim their gift of life and leave behind the frozen over shell of the soul. It was serene beauty with an counterpart of deadly ugliness, as equal and different as day and night. Mountains sprawled across the the northern land of 'Souls, collective known as the Halcyon range. Their foothills were dead with silence as the winds rolled down from the mountains and bended over the tall grasses and small flowers that managed to grow in the cold season. Anathema's territory lied near the Phosphagos Foothills, and their strong, bold border markings made it clear to all who pass it that they were there. It was eerily quiet, besides that high chirps of crickets, though no other natural noises occurred. But, though it seemed to lack any life, something stirred the frozen grass and pushed aside dainty flowers. A figure was starting to approach the mountains at a even pace of a slow trot. It seemed to be canine, with large ears and a lean body layered with good muscles. It looked, at a glance, like a coyote, with it oversize ears and narrow muzzle, but if you look closer, it had mixed traits of wolf, dog, and the said coyote. Judging by his size and frame, the hybrid was a fully grown male, not curvy enough to be demeaned a woman. His coat was a taunt copper brown, with patches of lighter fur under his underbelly, and darker fur that brandished over his back to his tail. His fur length was medium, which was more than enough to protect himself from the buffeting winds; they passed over harmlessly over his first layer of fur, while the second coat kept his skin warmer than some. The male stepped further into the foothills, his paw pads tickled by the soft grass that brushed against the bottom of his paws, but they were also tingling with excitement. The hybrid stopped once a breeze carried a stronger scent of Anathema than before, signaling that the borders were not so far away. His tail, for a moment, twitch with the ghost of a happy wag as he thought he scented someone familiar from his memories, one of the many guardians that took care of him, but it was mingled with so many other smells that he couldn't clarify his hopes. Though he was curious of the land before him, having heard that canines had taken a home inside of the mountain, he wasn't stupid, and didn't dare take another step that would take him closer, perhaps too close to the borderline. He had to be patient, and wait for one of the Anathema members to show. .siri-201 .ooc {font-style:italic; } .siri-201 p {padding:2px 20px; margin:0px; text-indent:35px;} .siri-201 b {color:#A8C1EC; letter-spacing:-.2px; } .siri-201 {background-color:#314E7E; background-image:url(http://sleepyglow.net/souls/gifts/2010dec/sirius.png); background-position:top center; background-repeat:no-repeat; border:2px solid #000000; font-family: georgia, serif; font-size:12px; color:#0B1627; letter-spacing:.4px; word-spacing:.3px; line-height:16px; width:450px; text-align:justify; padding:125px 0px 10px 0px; } .siri-201-border {width:454px; border:1px solid #FFFFFF; margin:0 auto;} </style>[/html] - Naniko D'Angelo - 01-09-2011 [html] <style> .naniko .ooc {font-style:italic; } .naniko p {padding:2px 0px; margin:0px; text-indent:35px;} .naniko b {color:#FFFFFF; letter-spacing:-.2px; text-shadow:#000000 2px 2px 2px; } .naniko {background-color:#1e252b; background-image:url(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v26/K ... naniko.png); background-position:bottom center; background-repeat:no-repeat; border:2px solid #FFFFFF; font-family:georgia, serif; font-size:11px; line-height:12px; color:#141b21; width:375px; text-align:justify; } .naniko-border {width:379px; border:1px solid #000000; margin:0 auto;} .naniko .inner {margin:10px 10px 190px 10px; padding:10px; background-image:url(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v26/K ... nikobg.png); border:1px solid #000000; border-radius:20px;-moz-border-radius:20px; -webkit-border-radius:20px;} </style> SIRIUSSSSSS <333333333 :]] Also, your writing is beautiful! My apologies for the long post; I wanted Naniko to discover the hot spring on this side of the mountain. wc: 1,162 She hadn’t been sure about leaving the den at this time of night, but was now glad that she had. The female had been meaning to scout the northern pieces of the mountain so that she might decide how much territory she would claim next, once the pack reached the 20-member mark, but hadn’t found the time or energy to do so yet. She had found herself wide awake in her den after only a few hours of sleep, her insomnia returning and preventing her from falling back into her dreamlike state. Naniko’s mind was often full of thoughts when she tried to go to bed, making her unable to sleep at all normally, so even the few hours of sleep had greatly helped.
The scents began to change as she came back down the northern face of the mountain. She took in the scents of charcoal from the burned territories to the north, but something else was bothering her nose on this night. An odd smell had caught her attention and her eyes searched over the ivory landscape. Smoke? She traveled a little farther down the valley that she was walking through, ears perked and nose twitching. Not smoke…but…steam? She hadn’t experienced steam that came out of the ground in her lifetime, just the kind that came out of her mouth on a cold day, and was surprised by it. Naniko put her nose directly into the stream of it, sniffing at it. The air was warm as it drifted around her face, warming her. Where was it coming from?
Now that she was nearer she could make out more details of the outsider. Her eyes narrowed, nose twitching and working to identify the scent. ”Si—Sirius?” He had looked very different when he had left, his coat boasting the colors of youth. It looked as if it had matured since then. But his eyes were the same. His last name sprung into her mind immediately, the name of her father’s mate, the wolf who had cared for her and Dierdre as pups. ”Sirius Revlis.” She hid her excitement, unsure if she was seeing things or if she really had identified the hybrid. She hadn’t seen him since his youth, since the day that he had disappeared from Twilight Vale. Much had changed since then. The female watched him quietly, waiting for denial or affirmation.
- Sirius Revlis - 01-09-2011 [html] Table by Sie OOC: Thank you. And, its okay~ <3 sswm: 667 As the moon started to descend slowly from its peak, Sirius couldn't help but let out a drawled out yawn, his apple green eyes scrunching up and lips pulling over his white teeth tiredly. He had be traveling about two weeks and a half from the neighboring New Brunswick, and he usually only slept for about six hours every night so that he could get up early that morning and trek further into 'Souls. He was also lugging a small bag of belongings he wanted to bring, and a guitar, though he left those nearby in a patch of frosty grass so it could be a more formal greeting with Anathema. He reached the borders faster than expected, he didn't want to wait until morning and camp so close the borders, since that would probably tick off Anathema, though he didn't know for sure. But, the Revlis male didn't want to take any risky chances, and it was better to stay up, until someone came and not to find him snooping around their territory. While he waited, he looked up at the mountains. Though the night blurred out most things, the tall outcrops stood sharply against the dark, rich indigo. He remembered seeing these mountains when he was a pup, even being told that he was born on them. Their tops were laced in snow, and Sirius wondered if it was colder up there than down on regular level. If that was so, he was grateful for his furry, copper fur; he would probably suffer from freezing to the high heavens if he fur was as short as a full blood coyote. His wolf blood outnumbered all the others running in his streams, though it seemed that coyote was dominant in his body features. A fresher, stronger scent of Anathema rolled down to Sirius on a breeze that strayed off course, and the man quickly looked for its source. It did not took long, though, and he spotted another canine. It was what looked like a female wolf. Her fur was as white as the snow that covered the Halcyon, and the woman seemed to radiate a power like the glow of the moon. It was hard to see her, as it was for her to see him, through the fog. Her coat blended into the mist so greatly that it seemed that was a ghost, but the scent that clung to her was the one Sirius came across earlier, which smelled reminded him of early childhood memories of speaking foreign languages. As the woman approached closer, she seemed to recognized him, and called him out at first by his first name, then his full name. Even the sound of her voice was etched into his mind from the many days he was taught Italian and French, despite the slight change of tone from age, and he knew for certain who this was. "Naniko,"he greeted back warmly, his pale green eyes shining as bright as a star with happiness. She was one of the many that took care of him and Apollo during his first year of life, and even if he spent not much time with her, Sirius had not forget her. "Its so good to see you again." His own voice has changed as well, grown out of the high squeals that he would produce as a pup, and was replaced with one of a man. It was true that Sirius was glad to see someone he was close to, since he felt out of place in New Brunswick with his mother and newly found mate. Though he had heard that some canines from a pack where his mother lived came here and made a pack, he didn't think Naniko would be here, though he wasn't too surprised. .siri-201 .ooc {font-style:italic; } .siri-201 p {padding:2px 20px; margin:0px; text-indent:35px;} .siri-201 b {color:#A8C1EC; letter-spacing:-.2px; } .siri-201 {background-color:#314E7E; background-image:url(http://sleepyglow.net/souls/gifts/2010dec/sirius.png); background-position:top center; background-repeat:no-repeat; border:2px solid #000000; font-family: georgia, serif; font-size:12px; color:#0B1627; letter-spacing:.4px; word-spacing:.3px; line-height:16px; width:450px; text-align:justify; padding:125px 0px 10px 0px; } .siri-201-border {width:454px; border:1px solid #FFFFFF; margin:0 auto;} </style>[/html] - Naniko D'Angelo - 01-09-2011 [html] <style> .naniko .ooc {font-style:italic; } .naniko p {padding:2px 0px; margin:0px; text-indent:35px;} .naniko b {color:#FFFFFF; letter-spacing:-.2px; text-shadow:#000000 2px 2px 2px; } .naniko {background-color:#1e252b; background-image:url(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v26/K ... naniko.png); background-position:bottom center; background-repeat:no-repeat; border:2px solid #FFFFFF; font-family:georgia, serif; font-size:11px; line-height:12px; color:#141b21; width:375px; text-align:justify; } .naniko-border {width:379px; border:1px solid #000000; margin:0 auto;} .naniko .inner {margin:10px 10px 190px 10px; padding:10px; background-image:url(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v26/K ... nikobg.png); border:1px solid #000000; border-radius:20px;-moz-border-radius:20px; -webkit-border-radius:20px;} </style> ^_^ And actually, Grace’s player has given her up…and she will be an NPC in Anathema, hanging around with Naniko and learning about the pack and its ways until I can get her a player again. wc: 297
”Did you come to find me? Or...are you perhaps seeking safe passage?” She wondered aloud. The female didn’t mind either; she didn’t know if he had known about her pack or that she had formed and was living in Anathema. ”I was exiled from Crimson Dreams…or..I guess you’d remember it as being Twilight Vale. I left for a while and came back to form this pack, Anathema” She explained. It would give him a basis of knowledge, at least.
- Sirius Revlis - 01-09-2011 [html] Table by Sie OOC: Aw, someone needs to roleplay the cutie D: Sirius wants to have fun family time with her~ sswm: 442 Sirius was glad that someone showed up on the borders, since he feared that no one will come until morning to find him sleeping while sitting up. But, he was even more joyful that it was unsuspectingly was Naniko. "I have heard rumors flying about that a new pack formed in the Halcyon mountains." In fact, a few packs formed in his absence. He had also heard of them, though Anathema, being the freshest and most interesting to him, not to mention being the closest, he wanted to check it out. He had heard that the D'Angelo's populated most of the pack, and wondered if Grace was somehow here with her family, and would had to admit that he wondered if Naniko was here as well, though he hadn't heard of any news of her. Though he knew her for the time she was with her mother until Addison took her away from Dierdre's lack of care, he felt that she was the closet family to him (though Naniko was like a parent to him), since he haven't heard a word about Apollo, as much as he disliked him as a puppy. He at first raised an eyebrow at the unfamiliar pack name Crimson Dreams, which Naniko cleared the confusion by saying it was formerly Twilight Vale, but he kept the uncertain expression. "You were exiled? Why?" Sirius' curiosity about the outcome of his half-sibling was cleared as Naniko confirmed that Grace was indeed here, and he wanted to see her. The last time he saw her, she was barely two months old, and that was when his other half-sister Addison took her away. But, he could not just charge into Anathema's territory to go searching for her. "Yeah. I lived with Dierdre and her new mate for a while, in New Brunswick." He wouldn't call Dierdre "mother", for the sake she wasn't much of one; having growing up in three different packs and various different guardians, he wasn't quite sure who was his mother or father, and he didn't have many memories of his true mother as a puppy until she met her with Cerulean. "Anyway, how are you doing? Anathema doing great?" Sirius did not just guess that the white woman's pack was doing great; he knew it as sure as the sun was bright. But, he was interested in the pack's going-on's, also how Naniko was up to herself. .siri-201 .ooc {font-style:italic; } .siri-201 p {padding:2px 20px; margin:0px; text-indent:35px;} .siri-201 b {color:#A8C1EC; letter-spacing:-.2px; } .siri-201 {background-color:#314E7E; background-image:url(http://sleepyglow.net/souls/gifts/2010dec/sirius.png); background-position:top center; background-repeat:no-repeat; border:2px solid #000000; font-family: georgia, serif; font-size:12px; color:#0B1627; letter-spacing:.4px; word-spacing:.3px; line-height:16px; width:450px; text-align:justify; padding:125px 0px 10px 0px; } .siri-201-border {width:454px; border:1px solid #FFFFFF; margin:0 auto;} </style>[/html] - Naniko D'Angelo - 01-09-2011 [html] <style> .naniko .ooc {font-style:italic; } .naniko p {padding:2px 0px; margin:0px; text-indent:35px;} .naniko b {color:#FFFFFF; letter-spacing:-.2px; text-shadow:#000000 2px 2px 2px; } .naniko {background-color:#1e252b; background-image:url(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v26/K ... naniko.png); background-position:bottom center; background-repeat:no-repeat; border:2px solid #FFFFFF; font-family:georgia, serif; font-size:11px; line-height:12px; color:#141b21; width:375px; text-align:justify; } .naniko-border {width:379px; border:1px solid #000000; margin:0 auto;} .naniko .inner {margin:10px 10px 190px 10px; padding:10px; background-image:url(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v26/K ... nikobg.png); border:1px solid #000000; border-radius:20px;-moz-border-radius:20px; -webkit-border-radius:20px;} </style> Yeah!

- Sirius Revlis - 01-11-2011 [html] Table by Sie OOC: I was unsure of how Squirt exactly looked like, so I imagined him as a transparent squirrel sswm: 546 Sirius frowned, though it seemed unaccustomed to his what seemed to always be cheerful face. Naniko explained why Crimson Dreams had banished her, and he automatically felt that it was wrong, his heart lurching from what seemed wrong for that pack to do. If anything, it was this Crimson Dreams' fault to let their pups dig in personal belongings and have no consequences for it. Though he wanted to voice his annoyance, he simply brushed it off as Naniko continued to speak. There was no need to chatter all night like noisy squirrels about thinks that were obvious. And, as if on cue, something crawled up Sirius' leg and rested on top of his shoulders, though the weight was light. Squirt! He hadn't seen his little buddy since the day before, when he ran off to do something, and the man didn't question his companion's motives or why he runs off. But, he did worry about him when he had awoken that morning and not to see the little critter, and moved on without him since he had a feeling that Squirt would find him without a problem. The ghost sniffed at Naniko from the safety of his friend's shoulder cautiously, and Sirius whispered under his breath,"Its alright, she's family. She won't hurt you." The squirrel stared at the man for a moment, as if he was thinking it over, and suddenly leaped off of his shoulder. He carefully scurried over to Naniko, and the time he was hidden in the grass he was able to be seen by the woman. He sat down about a foot away from her, gazing up at the big, white wolf with beady eyes. "Naniko, this is my friend, Squirt,"Sirius spoke for the squirrel, as the little creature watched the she-wolf. He kept the introduction short, since the cold was starting to get to him. He even nearly sighed with relief as Naniko offered some rest for the tired hybrid. Sirius was then quickly reminded that he had some things somewhere nearby, and murmured,"Hold on one moment." He ran off to grab his things, with Squirt running behind him and latching on to his tail. After he picked up his stuff and carried it in his jaws, and went back to the waiting D'Angelo with his squirrel friend perched on his head, which seemed to be a usual place for him. He managed to catch Naniko's question, and had to stop and think about it. How long would he stay here? Would he leaped away from this pack like he did all the others when he was young, or would he finally settle down and finally make a home? He truly didn't have a right or wrong answer at that moment, but then a thought came across his mind that made him certain. Naniko was in this pack, better yet she was the leader, and Grace also seemed to be here. Sirius could already see himself finally fitting in with a pack that wouldn't judge him on pass decisions. His lips pulled over his teeth in a bright smile, and he spoke certainly,"As long as I am allowed." .siri-201 .ooc {font-style:italic; } .siri-201 p {padding:2px 20px; margin:0px; text-indent:35px;} .siri-201 b {color:#A8C1EC; letter-spacing:-.2px; } .siri-201 {background-color:#314E7E; background-image:url(http://sleepyglow.net/souls/gifts/2010dec/sirius.png); background-position:top center; background-repeat:no-repeat; border:2px solid #000000; font-family: georgia, serif; font-size:12px; color:#0B1627; letter-spacing:.4px; word-spacing:.3px; line-height:16px; width:450px; text-align:justify; padding:125px 0px 10px 0px; } .siri-201-border {width:454px; border:1px solid #FFFFFF; margin:0 auto;} </style>[/html] - Naniko D'Angelo - 01-11-2011 [html] <style> .naniko .ooc {font-style:italic; } .naniko p {padding:2px 0px; margin:0px; text-indent:35px;} .naniko b {color:#FFFFFF; letter-spacing:-.2px; text-shadow:#000000 2px 2px 2px; } .naniko {background-color:#1e252b; background-image:url(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v26/K ... naniko.png); background-position:bottom center; background-repeat:no-repeat; border:2px solid #FFFFFF; font-family:georgia, serif; font-size:11px; line-height:12px; color:#141b21; width:375px; text-align:justify; } .naniko-border {width:379px; border:1px solid #000000; margin:0 auto;} .naniko .inner {margin:10px 10px 190px 10px; padding:10px; background-image:url(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v26/K ... nikobg.png); border:1px solid #000000; border-radius:20px;-moz-border-radius:20px; -webkit-border-radius:20px;} </style> Works for me! :] Welcome to Anathema!!! ^___^ Would you like to end here, or continue on? wc: 283
