Ember

Wow, it has been forever since i posted anything, so her ears a few pictures i've done on an app called "Sketch Club"

the names are as follows: "Dreaming Of Ember", "Ember On The Savana", and "Ember Hanging Around"

for those who want to continue or start roleplaying i have a rp Facebook account ( https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100014696228017 ) all are welcome.

I'm looking for a more 'professional' roleplay to help me develop character personality and plot focus for my new series, It takes place on another planet with a small star orbiting it and a large unnatural moon constantly eclipsing the other half of the planet.  The inhabitants were taken from their original home and now must face the wrath of a human scientist and the Dragons and kitsune who wage war on the human inhabitants.

yea its ok.... with the things were going here i opened up another role-play with a couple friends of mine over a false Facebook account that i use only for rping. have fun with your other rp.

(If anyone is still on here and willing to continue, I'm back... life has been busy but i should have time now, and iv been craving a good RP. i haven't rp'd since i got off. let me know if you want to continue or start up a new one.)

(Putting RP on hold due to a lack of participation and a busy schedule, if you are joining or a participant that hasn't posted for a while feel free to add to the story and i'll be back to it in a week or so.)

Fang follows and waits a few yards away thinking to see what's going on, "Ember, what is it?"

Ember looks back at Fang and smiles, "its ok, its a traveler." she looks back at the traveler, "what might your name be?" the traveler retracted her claws, "the names Rose Black, or just Rose is fine." Rose gave a weak but painful smile as she gripped her arm. Ember looked her arm over, "do you mind if we bandage you up?" Rose nodded as she glanced over at the others in the distance. Ember, lead her over to her friends for medical help for Rose's wounded arm.

Ember continued to sit under the apple tree as she crunched on a juicy red apple. staring off towards where the Ratures are she saw a figure coming up the road. squinting she noticed that it was not a Rature but a traveler coming from the direction of the nature encampment. getting up she slowly approached the traveler who was a female black panther. She was wearing not much more then a torn dark brown and dirty dress with a leather belt and a pack strapped to her back that was equally just as torn and dirty, she also seemed to have a wounded arm. "Hello there!" Ember called out, the traveler looked up from the dirt road, "H-hello?" she hesitantly responded as she extended her claws, "W-who are you? F-friend or f-foe?" Ember put on her best smile, "We are friends."she gestured to the others who were behind her.

Aden thinks for a second, "Maybe I can help fashion some bows while we sleep tonight, Colbalt, you can help me figure out where to place each peice while I cut them, I have experience in making bows by hand without machinery" Fang interrupts, " we should fall back a ways from this area just in case"

Ember blinks as they plan things themselves "...." she turns with a mumble under her breath, "just because i am young.... grr... they think their better...." she wanders off into a field and sits under an apple tree. Grabbing an apple she bites into it and continues to watch them discuss what they are going to do next.

Ember disappeared out of their sight as she hid in the brush and ventured forward, following her nose. Suddenly there was a loud screeching like from a mouse or rat as Ember came out of the brush with a live, but average sized, rat in her mouth as it squirmed to get free. She came back to the group and stood up. taking the rat out of her mouth and holding it with her claws as it keeps screaming she explained, "this is not a Rature but these things often live with them in numerous numbers..."she paused, "we should either try to go around or wait until morning to continue on." She then silenced the squirming rat and ate it.

Aden gets defensive and ready to transform.  "If they have, I can probably ward them off while some of you run away.  I'm surprised if none of us packed any weapons"

"hey, i didn't exactly have time to pack up anything. i just came as i could." i lean down and pick up a few rocks, and scan the area around us, looking for movement in the bushes and grass

Ember silently listened to the guys all talking about weapons as she scans the road and bushes with her gaze. Extending her claws she walked forward towards the scent that seemingly is getting stronger. Her ears pinned as she places the basket and supplies off to the side of the road as she ventures further away following her nose, and as she creeped forward she remained silent and stealthy as she veered off the road.

as they ventured further on, Ember stopped and sniffed at the air. Her nose was not super keen but she could smell something in the distance. "I smell a foul odour in the distance." she turned and looked at her companions. "Im hoping the Ratures have not ventured further out of their territories."

Fang looks, "I'm ready, as long as we don't come across any glaciers, I still have my Spring cut fur."  Aden adds that he's ready to go too.

Ember finishes checking her things, "Okay, well i got all the food supplies." she puts the load of thing over her shoulder. "so lets go." she smiles brightly and turns, looking down the dusty road takes a deep nervous breath before starting to walk.

Fang walks in, "I might come, assuming we can avoid those ratures, even if Aden's a good biter, and he won't catch any diseases easily.  Also, I finished cutting that last piece. I get sick sometimes, we should pack some herbs and medical supplies in case I catch something."  Aden looks at Fang, "I already packed medical supplies in the backpack, I always carry them in case of emergencies. A few times, it's happened where my body's healing rate decreases to normal."

Ember looks at them, "well, that's good but there are no herbs stored up here. I know what to look for in the fields along the road though. So... do we have everything ready to go?" she looks at all that she has. In her basket was some food from earlier and the meat that they harvested, and in another satchel that she had there was some other foods like veggies, fruits, and nuts.

(Is this still open to join in?)

(Yes, come in at any time, we'd be more then happy for you to join.)

Aden thinks, "hmm? we should make the camp at least 40 yards farther away from their territory than we think we should, just in case."

Ember bends down and picks up a few things off the ground as she gathers her things. "Do you think you are up for a little adventure?" She looks up from her stooped position. (Rature pic link: http://i1083.photobucket.com/albums/j390/Embertigerhorse/image_zpsnpixujo8.jpeg )

 

 

 

Fang is curious, but continues working, not wanting to appear lazy, but slows down enough to listen.

Aden agrees to join, "I would enjoy coming to see it be translated, I've met someone who can translate almost anything she sees one time, i met her in Shimatochi, her powers are a bit unusual though"

(I'm going with fictional contenents, Shimatochi is my world's version of Japan)

 

Ember stoops down and draws in the dirt to show Aden a rough map of their location and destination. "here is where we are, and this is where we need to go for the translation. But... you see this area?" she makes a circle somewhere between where they are and where they need to go. "Right around here are some very territorial Ratures..." She thinks of how to describe the creatures. "...They are a dangerous creature, with sharp teeth, long pointed noses, large roundish ears, little front arms with claws, but powerful back legs for running, long scaly tails and their bodies excluding their tails are covered in a grungy black, grey, or brown fur." She looks up at Aden, "Luckily most of them sleep during the day so camping out at night would be a good idea before we cross their territory."

Aden smiles, "hmm, well, I can't translate much, but I assume Matt might not be here with his translation files when he gets here, I'm only able to identify whether or not I've seen a language before, and other than wild animal, I only speak two languages"

 

Fang almost clumsily handles the tools, being familiar with knives but not the cutting technique, making cuts almost the correct size, but slightly off scale in cutting and shape.

Ember talked with Aden while she watched Fang cut away at the strips of meat. "If you want to you can join us on the adventure and watch the translation be done up on Killways Cliff. Besides, it should only take us a few days to get up there, give or take.

I get my paws cleaned and smile "Killways cliff...i've been wanting to see some action over there. rumor has it someone has tried to build a device to launch himself across."

Turning to Cobalt, she smiled, "that was probably the Wise One's doing" she laughed, "He is well known for his crazy inventions".

Fang notices the meat and watches...  "I've never really seen meat this early in production phase, can I help, after watching you do it so I know how it's done of course"  Aden looks over at Ember, "a journey? that seems like a good way to relax, finally an adventure where I'm not being chased by witches, scientists, or battling for the fate of the earth."

"if you want to help Fang, there is another meat rack in the far corner", hands him a knife and smiles at him. Ember looks over at Aden, "yes, an adventure. I just recently found a map and we need to find someone to decipher the symbols on the map, but he lives far away on Killways Cliff."

"hah, well that sounds fun" ^^ i chuckle and shake my head as i cut some of the last strips of meat, nearly done with them now

"Hey Cobalt, let Fang try his hand with the last rack. And if you want to help more we need a few greens." Ember Smiled over at Cobalt before starting to pack the meat into a bag. "we can keep this meat for a while before we cook it, or eat it as is. But i am going to go and talk to the Uncle later and see if he can help us any more."

I look over at Ember and then at Fang. I stop the conversation there and walk over next to Ember "would you like some help there?"

She smiles, "sure, if you would like to. I am stocking up for a journey."cuts away at the strips of cured meat. "there is a knife over there if you would like to cut away at a few slivers."

Ember watches silently at the guys talk, then looks down at the map in her hand. She opens the map and examines it before turning and walking off by herself. Going to the shed she began packing some things into her basket for the journey. "well" she talked to herself, "I guess if everyone else is too busy for the adventure or at least too busy to prepare for it I'll have to do it myself." She started cutting away at some cured meat that was hanging from the rafters.

I give a nod to the tiger and smile "Hello there. Name's Cobalt." His blue eyes and warm smile are kind, but he paws at the ground, slightly shy around the female type.

Ember looks up and smiles at Cobalt, "it is nice to meet you Cobalt, i've seen you around before. Your from the town over right?"

Cobalt looks at Ember and Aden, staying to the side as he's a bit shy

Aden apologzes, "sorry, I just realized I left to look at some designs without telling my friend first, I hope my friend wasn't a bother while I was gone."

looks up after she finished grooming. Looks at Cobalt, "good day neighbour" turns to Aden, "no apology needed, I enjoyed talking with him and fetching him something to eat." she smiled at Fang then looked down at the map in her hand.

suddenly Aden transforms back into a human being, after backing away slowly, with clothes only slightly tattered, only as much as would be considered usual for cheap clothing to tear in the forrest.  "sorry, it's just me"

Ember lowers her claws and quickly sits on the ground. "Ohh...." she took a deep breath "...you scared me bad. What's up?" she smooths out her fur, grooming herself until her fur glistened in the sun.

Suddenly A large, wild looking four legged wolf jumps out into the clearing.

Ember jumped up in alarm, her fur stood up making her look bigger and more frightening, and with extended claws she stood ready to defend against or attack the intruder.

It's okay, I'm hardly upset at anyone right now, It's nice to get outside and meet new people for once.

smiling, Ember felt something at her side, picking it up she realized that her map had fallen out of her belt. "Hey? Fang? Do you think that you and your friend would like to go on a treasure hunt?" She lifted up the piece of hide that the map was etched on. "This is a treasure map that my father had kept hidden in his hope-chest." She opened up the hide and revealed to him the map written in a foreign language with many symbols written around the edges of the map.
