Rise of the Wind Serpents- Open

[Frezir]

I'M A WIND SERPENT! COUNT ME IN!
Name: Fyglia
Image:
Desired Rank: Guard/hunter
For Restricted Ranks: (Why do they fit this rank? Why are they applying?)
Personality: Before foals - Spending her days in the mountainside that captures the most sun rays. Vile, cold, and ruthless, like her fellow sisters. Always trying to take land from other creatures with force. She would fool those close to her home that she was hospitable and caring, but it's a mere ruse to stick her fangs into their skin and inject poison into them. She was naturally a meat eater, but she did have a few greens to help keep her scales shiny.
After Foals - Not as cold, but still pretty vicious. A bit more reserved and calculative.

History: Has had one fling and has 3 children

I'M A WIND SERPENT! COUNT ME IN!
Name: Yarará
Image:


Desired Rank: Protector
For Restricted Ranks: Yarara is a fierce male, and he is applying for the Protector position because he sees the herd as what little remains of his once great family. His sister, Viper, is all that remains of his immediate family, and he will endeavor to protect the herd from outsiders for as long as it needs to be done. He errs on the side of caution (sometimes rashly), preferring to halt intruders in their paths and ask questions later. While he is not needlessly violent, he is not afraid to be a physical blockade to anyone attempting to enter herd territory without stating what he deems to be a valid purpose. If they are physically aggressive, he will mirror them until they stand down. Yarara is rather methodical, and would serve as a good organizer of patrols, search parties, nursery guards, or evacuations (should worst come to worst). However, he may need a bit more finesse when it comes to psychological/verbal negotiations, and he is self-aware enough to ask for assistance from fellow leaders in such situations.

Personality: Yarara is quietly proud and protective of his heritage, and as such, spends his time doing what he can to see the herd succeed. While he does lead patrols himself occasionally, he also enjoys spending time with the young members of the herd, teaching them what he remembers of the herd before the calamity. He endeavors to impress upon them that division among their ranks is dangerous, and that history has taught them that it is better to stick together. While he is aware that some believe unity is best taught through religion, Yarara encourages others to think critically about what is best for them. He is personally aware of the herd's religion, but does not actively believe in the deities - though he respects them and others' regard for them. Yarara is, deep down, a kind soul, but he hides it under a stoic exterior that usually only melts away with the foals or (sometimes) his sister. His aggressive side can and will activate given the slightest inkling of danger, and he will immediate switch gears into protective mode.

History: Yarara was a very young foal when the calamity struck - he literally popped from his basket as the herd scattered, learning to walk as he attempted to run away. He was aware of his parents, but lost track of them in the chaos. He spent his life wandering, tracking whispers of his kind, and following those whispers to the deep jungle. He was amazed to find the ancient place where his people had made a new home, and was glad to, at last, find a place of belonging.

He likely had some run-ins with hostile Soq and other herds that led him to develop to what he is now, but those have not been mapped out.

I'M A WIND SERPENT! COUNT ME IN!
Name: Paion Nes’tirak
Image:
Desired Rank: Herbalist
For Restricted Ranks: Paion has experienced both sides of needing and receiving a lot of care as a colt on one end and going on to learning and practicing herbal craft, medicine, and healing on the other. It’s shaped him into who he is and it’s his life’s work. So much of his time was spent in the company of his mother who had been his caregiver/teacher, or on his own after her passing, that now that he’s found the herd, after growing up on tales of the homeland, he wants to do everything in his power to help them keep healthy in the face of whatever injury or illness may befall its members so that the Wind Serpents can confidently go and flourish going forward into the future.

Personality: A quiet and observant fellow, Paion has a pretty large personal space requirement. Not that he's a large male, his fraught health as a youngster has caused him to be a slight stallion as an adult. He's a touch on the anxious side, which causes him to be very cautious and alert. Funny enough, this manifests in odd ways when he's working, or could be sort of innate territoriality manifesting. His herb stashes/growing beds are no go zones. Permission only, or request if he can retrieve things for you. Anything else will result in him laying into the offender, or chasing them off before returning and making accounts of things. If he's working with someone one on one, they can be in his work space, but everyone else will be required to keep their distance. Privacy, respect, and confidentiality is important when it comes to health and personal problems. He can be a touch on the prickly side, but he really does mean well and wants to keep those who may find themselves in his care tended to and on their way to health. It takes a good bit for him to let down his guard, but he's got the makings of a truly devoted friend/ally/etc.

History: For Paion's earliest days, his world was very small. It was just his mother and himself. She was the last of one of the many splintered remnants of the main herd. Her mate, Paion's father, hadn't survived the war. Paion was on the small, frail side as a foal and she did everything she could to comfort and strengthen her son when he was feeling ill or out of sorts. All her herb craft, medical knowledge of tending to injuries or illness, dealing with venoms or poisons as needed, and stories and beliefs of their long lost home were poured into his curious young mind. It was a struggle at times, but Paion grew and matured into a young stallion. In time, he found himself alone in the world. Inquiries and whispers brought him to the jungle ruins and he’s happy to take his collected knowledge and experience to help his new home ever he may.

Tossing this lad here to make him all official like. c:
