This is a roleplay about my home village in the northern forests. It will be similar to Elliott's SailHaven post. Now, a bit of info... I hail from a small village referred to only as "The Nest." We are a species of upright catlike creatures who hunt with their claws and other weapons. We trade with other villages, so feel free to write your story from the standpoing of another trader as well as a villager. Once you have learned towalk and talk,you are out of the Nursery. Then, you study in battle and will recieve a bit of schooling. Once that is complete, you are free to live with your family. Once you have lived 200 Moons (about 15 Earth years) you and the other trainees who are of age complete the coming of age ceremony, involving walking under a waterfall, bathing in the ice cold lake and fishing in the wild alone for a night, you return a well-respected member of the village. From there you have the right to do what you want, to fight, to mate, to lead, (we have some system of politics, as far as electing a new leader.), or to leave for another part of Kyngdom. Your stories can start at any part of your life in the Nest or as a trader, or visitor (We haven everyone except humans we do not trust.) Schooling may go on as long as wanted or needed, and traders stay for days in the village, camping. We hunt small woodland creatures, and pixie dust is highly valued as we use it feed our young to help them grow faster. Have fun on this roleplay! Also, if you would like to start wars and such, make sure everyone agrees, and legends are permitted. (We do make burnt offerings to some deities.)

Alright, Awesome!
Name: Raydora
Age: 199 Moons, 5 days until her 200th birthday.
Apperance: Tan and black tabby fur, Green eyes. Pink nose.
Personality: Quiet, smart, a quick learner. Loves water and can't wait for her 200th ceremony.
Backstory: Has lived in The Nest all her life. Trusts most humans, and cannot wait for BIG to go down, down, down! Is rather special because she is the last kit in her litter to turn 200, because she is the only kit that was NOT given Pixie Dust. She doesn't want anyone else to go through her pain of it though, and is yearning to apprentice to a trader.
Other: Her father has died, killed by Brazen Goo. She lives with her mother. The only possession she has from her father is a sea green glass seashell necklace with a brown cord. She doesn't like fighting, and insists on fighting with wits. The only weapon she carries with her is her hunting bow, and she is fighting the desire to join the FaFA.

Raydora~
I jiggled with excitement. 5 days until I had my ceremony. I. Could not. Wait. I sat down, then stood back up and started pacing again.
"Oh, sit down!"
"I can't, Mother! You know that Tiger is coming today!" I cried. Tiger was my oldest sister. She had already undergone her ceremony, and was almost 300 Moons old. I was hoping for tips on how to prepare.
The door jiggled.
"Tiger!" I cried as a tabby furred figure walked through the door. She picked m up and hugged me.
"Hey, Ray!" I grinned as she scrached my head.
We sat down and ate dinner. After the delightful meal, I headed to my room. Tiger followed. I shut the door behind her and sat on my bed, breathless. Tiger began her tales.
"When I turned 200, it was time for my ceremony. That morning, me and my fellow trainees gathered behind the waterfall." Tiger began making hand motions in the air as I watched, spellbound.
"We had a small speech and then I ran through. It was cold. After that..."
Tiger told me all about it. Afterwards she laughed at my expression. "Time for bed. Have a good five days, Ray."
I slept like a kit.

I glide through the forest, a simple shadow in the sea of green. I hear the cat people up ahead and follow the noise.
I come to a waterfall and see the people. They walk through one by one, each relishing the feeling of the cool water. How I wished I could go in there, to be a part of that group...

Raydora~
I sat by the waterfall and watched the newest people to go. They waved at me before they went. I waved back. Only 3 more days until my 200th ceremony.
Suddenly, I heard a sigh from behind me. I whipped aroumd. A human was standing at the edge of the forest, watching wistfully at our people. My hair automatically stood on end, but I flattened it and walked silently over.
"Hello." I whispered. She jumped widely and looked at me.
"Oh, please. I didn't mean to offend you or anything-"
I laughed. "Oh no its fine. I'm Raydora. Who are you?"
"Yasei." The girl replied. She visibly relaxed.

Raydora~
!three days have elapsed!
I bounced out of bed. Today was the day!!!!! I ran to my mom and she hugged me. Then I ran outside to the fountain.
Tiger and Yasei were both waiting near it for me. I screamed with excitement as I hugged them. They hugged back, then Tiger lightly slapped my bum.
"Go on, enter!!" She cried. I nodded and ran inside. My two fellow trainees hugged me. Then we entered the waterfall. It was cold on my back, and I ran out of it quickly. Gossamer exited right behind me, and Madirae after her.
I smiled. Time for the rest!

um i don't really know what going on...

I swing from tree to tree. Up ahead I see people they look like they are all girls. Some cat people and a small Asian girl. I swing through the trees spying on them just out of sight. I land at the place where they are standing just as one cat person walks into the stone entryway. The girls look at me, and gawk......

It looks like Raydora is assuming you're doing the coming of age ceremony with her.
I'm sorry, I should have asked to join first. My character's name is Lycaella, and she is a traveler. She will not be here most of the time. She may even never be here, depending on how far away it is from New Windswood. The farthest she can go in one journey is 630 miles.

Summer lives in a shrine beneath the stars, covered only by a monument encased in foxglove, an incredibly poisonous plant. She alone can sup from its flowers and she often mixes her toxic spit with other herbs to create a paste she uses to color the surrounding trees. The shrine she lives beneath is one to a diety whose face has long been defiled by time.

Being part human, I feel a little, you know... uncomfortable as I sneak into the town. I don't even know why I'm sneaking. Maybe the human part of me is taking that over. I sniff the air and catch the familiar stench of cat. Great. I've had a little information about this place, but I expected there to be less of a stench. I turn my mind back to the gems I've come to trade. I can get some good money for them.
I crouch behind a building and wait for a clump of residents to walk past. I quickly jump behind them as they pass, blending into the crowd. I break free of the clump as I pass a dark wooden building. I open the door and jump in.
The room is dark. Various artifacts line the walls. A man with grey, curly hair and wire glasses sits behind a desk. I walk up to the desk, reaching into my pockets and bringing out the bright blue crystals. They glow, lighting up the room with watery patterns. The man barely glances at them.
"Part human, eh?" he asks.
"Yeah," I answer. "You're pretty human yourself."
"I am not exactly what I look like," he says, flashing me a sharp-toothed grin.
"Alright..." I say, a little nervous now. "I'm here to trade these. I went through a lot of stuff to get them, so they better be worth something."
He picks up one of the small stones and flips it over and over. "Ocean crystals, I presume?"
"Yeah."
He looks at me over the top of his glasses. "You shouldn't have these in this town."

I can negotiate some extra privaleges for you if need be.
