Chatterbox: Inkwell
Myrkuut flattened his
Myrkuut flattened his body against the craggy damp wall.
He couldn't see a thing, but he could've sworn he heard something slithering in the dark not far from him. Cold sweat scuttled down his back, but he firmly held absolutely still for fear of alerting whatever it was out there.
Suddenly, a deep, breathy rustle came from his left and he stiffened slightly, holding his breath. It slowly thrashed its way past, disappearing to his right. Myrkuut's muscles loosened, and he let that coiled-up breath finally escape, but he didn't let his guard down. He couldn't afford to.
He needed to move forward, after all.
Letting his fingers crawl sideways against the rough, slimy rocks slightly behind him, he slowly edged his way on; ever closer to some desperate, unseen goal.

Name:
Nickname (optional):
Pronouns:
(^^^ Can have male, female, in-between/neither/unclear or just vaguely leaning towards one or the others, etc., but also consider how 'alien' species may function. Maybe they switch during certain periods, or are like fungus on Earth, where gender doesn't really apply in the same way, or perhaps they have a different method of procreating all together. Keep an open mind, and explain/experiment with that here!)
Appearance:
Personality:
Skills/strengths:
Weakness/limitations:
Gear:
(^^^optional, basically just clothes/equipment/enhancements your charrie needs/prefers)
Magic/type:
(^^^ Optional, if not, just put 'N/A'; if yes please specific/list uses, limitations, complications, etc.)
Species type(be unique!):
Habitat:
(^^^ Optional, keep it general/mysterious if possible since we'll only have specific names for regions/governments after we've fleshed out the story a bit more)
Language(s):
(^^^ Optional, since there is an 'international/continental' language, this won't be a problem for general communication except in special cases, but it might play into the story to be able to speak many/very tribe-specific languages)
Defining traits:
(^^^ Optional; do they have a particular birthmark or deformity or unique colouration that makes it easy to identify them? Perhaps their species has a very distinctive feature, like glowing eyes or skin, or something like that? How does this effect them? Are they praised as being a 'chosen one,' or shunned for their differences, or does it not matter that much at all? Maybe it doesn't matter in their native tribe, but when facing other species/groups, it does. Explain/experiment all that here!)

Don't forget, you can adjust you sheet as the story continues and we all have a better understanding of this World at large. It's also alright if you create several more characters later on, but let's stick to 1-3 for the beginning part.
I plan on being the main writer/Dungeon Master, but I'll still create a few characters and encourage you to write little segments/chapters or even side/backstories, if you're comfortable with it! Thank you!
_-_-_ _-_-_ _-_-_
Sneak-peak/preview of the next part:
Fingers met cold metal, and stayed with excitement. Was this what he'd been looking for?! Before Myrkuut could celebrate or investigate further, a sharp scraping erupted above eye-level at his 2 o'clock. He froze.
All at once, Myrkuut's vision turned to stabbing white, body was bathed in a beam of light.
Expect to have a set of new charries introduced in the next segment!

Heya, so, this is my first time starting an RP! Feel free to offer suggestions/improvements if you think there's anything that could use some work, especially if you're more experienced with this kind of thing! See ya' soon!

Ocuans require more energy than humans, also, meaning they eat & sleep much more. Ju is an exception- she doesn't sleep that much, but she also seems to have less energy than others.

Habitat: Lives alone in a cave in the forest
Language(s): Elf, dwarf, fairy, troll, gnome, goblin, mermaid, ogre, nymph, unicorn, international language (the reason he knows so many languages is because he was raised by various species and has dealt with various species and so learned their languages. He also met a unicorn, I will explain in the "other" section, but that's why he knows that language. Also, elf shapeshifters are very fast language learners
Defining traits: Pointy ears, aforementioned tree-shaped birthmark on left-hand. Lives alone, but sometimes doubts if this is a good idea. Gets all his own food from the forest.
Other: When gathering berries one day in a clearing by a stream he found an injured unicorn with the tip of its horn missing. It was just a baby. He brought it back with him, nursed it back to health and helped its horn grow back, then released it. During that time he learned to speak its language. Now every full moon it returns to the clearing to visit him.
Yay, this should be fun!
