MOST OFTEN SEEN AT: The Bog and Burrow Inn.

FRIEND OR MENTOR: If asked about a friend or mentor, Cyl will say that she has none, although this is not the truth. She is very close with a few of the spies who meet at The Bog and Burrow. Anyone other than Cyl would call it friendhsip.

PERSONALITY: She doesn't like to bond with people (Basically she doesn't like making friends because she might lose them.) She deeply distrusts humans. I'm going to let her personality reveal itself in the story, because I'm not good at making personalities. I'll post the rest of her personality once I've figured it out.

When they said no, the man took her sister. Her mom and dad ran after him. The man took out a knife, her dad lunged. The knifed stabbed. Her dad and sister fell to the ground. Her mom then threw herself at the man. The knife stabbed, and Ivy ran.

Elvina, all that's in the magazine (in the February issue) is the letter from BIG, which is on the Kyngdom site, and a coded message, which we think other kids will post and deciper when their February Cricket arrives. We plan to post plot twists and activities on the Kyngdom site as the year progresses. There's no one Kyngdom story that will appear in the magazine. It's more of a progressive, interactive story and world that we hope Cricket kids will enjoy writing about and developing.

WOAH! This looks super cool!

So, before I make my charrie official, I just want to suggest something. How about this:

The government in Kyngdom is an oligarchy. In other words, a few select families rule over it. They are called Nobyl families. The names of the families start with 'Pur', which makes people aware that they are Nobyl.

NAME:  Saralayah Pur Arthi (but is usually just called Layah)

SPECIES: Human (Homo Sapiens)

JOB/TITLE: Technically, because Saralayah is a Pur Arthi (A Nobyl family) her full name is Nobyl Saralayah Pur Arthi. 

APPEARANCE: She has olive skin and black curly hair which is sharply cut at the shoulder. She usually wears a long skirt and a white tank top underneath her purple velvet Nobyl child's half cape. She is very tall, and is sometimes intimidating, but she doesn't mean to be. 12 years old.

PERSONALITY: She tries to be as kind as she can, but has a very short temper which often gets her into trouble. She is also very impulsive, a trait she is trying to squash. Beyond that, she is very caring for people and beings that are weaker than her.

HOME: Arthi Manor, Isti District, Southern Kyngdom

MOST OFTEN SEEN AT: Her desk, with a pen in hand, writing letters anonymously to those who need them.

FRIEND OR MENTOR: Her younger sister, Danaria, who believes in Sarahlayah no matter what.

WEAKNESSES: Feels bad for everyone who is harmed, even her enemys; Very impulsive and doesn't think things through.

BACKGROUND: As a Nobyl, Saralayah had a very rpiveledged childhood. She had loving parents and had her every need taken care of. Then her sister, Emmiren, started going to secret meetings. She started dissapearing places, along with her parents, and then all three of them would seem preocupied and out of sorts. Her parents, Nalia Pur Arthi and Golin Pur Arthi, ignored her or didn't realize she was there, and sometimes had a glazed look on their faces. Emmaren always had a smirk on hers. One day Saralayah discovered her sister in conversation with a strange looking woman in a dirty white lab coat. They said some very scary things about animal extermination. Saralayah quietly crept away and then cried into her pillow that whole night. She had always had a soft spot for animals. From that day on, she feared the woman in the lab coat, and hated Emmiren for talking with her.

Name: Laria Jakle

Species: Human, but she has an uncanny ability to almost communicate with animals.

Job: She volunteers at the zooo a lot (the workers love her) and she tries to build things in the garage, but the last few times were. . . unfortunate. . . Mom and Dad weren't very forgiving after the whole car thing. . . If Dad didn't want his Mercedes blown up, he shouldn't have parked right next to her work bench!

Appearenc: Long black hair, often falling in her face. Sharp features and big violet eyes. She bounces around a lot and is always muttering ideas to herself.

Personality: Not exactly ADHD, but she has trouble paying attention in class and she has to move all the time. She often gets caught up in her own little world. She's intelligent and should be in college, but her parents won't let her move up. She isn't super observant, but she notices potential. Like, If she's sees a suspicious looking car with a suspicious looking person loading a stereo into the back from another house, she thinks 'Hm. That stereo would be a lot more efficient if...' Then she calls the police ten minutes later after she realizes what happened.

Home: Southwestern Kyngdom. With her parents (she's 14)

Most often seen at: The zoo, her workbench, or her firend's machine shop (I'll get to her later) Her room is also a favorite spot. She has it wallpapered with Post-its and paper, theories about animals and machins. It's been like that so long she can't remember what color her walls are.

Friend or Mentor: Ginny Haler. She's got a PHD in engineering but nobody takes her seriously. They meet a lot and talk about machines and stuff.

Enemy or Rival: Thalia Whey. She somehow manages to mess up Laria's tests. She also teases Laria about her being an 'Animal Whisperer'. The teasing got especially bad after the last science fair when Laria brought in a specialized table for pouring coffee (Laria is really nto helping disabled people and making life easer for them) and spilled coffee all over the principle. She still won, but Thalia hasn't let up.

Favorite possesion or object: A letter from her favortie inventor, Dr. Sheepshank.

Motto or favorite saying: 'Just because it blows up doesn't mean it's not functional.'

Strengths: Inventing, helping with animals, she is very outgoing and talkative, despite that she's in her garage all day. She just doesn't have time to go out and see people that much. She stands up the Thalia and is pretty much fearless.

Weaknesses: A little big headed at times, and she gets too frustrated when something doesn't work. She also blows up whenever Thalia goes too far with the machine teasing. One time Thalia called a modified oven for people in wheelchairs 'A great place to burn every *air quotes* machine by Laria Jakle'. Thalia was lucky to escape with only a black eye.
