Name:Medea
Age: 6 years
Gender: Female
Species: King Cobra
Appearance: Melanistic (overproduces pigment so she lacks the usual markings of king cobras) and is currently around 12ft long but is still growing~
Personality: Medea is very polite giving her an all around respectful demeanor and is very empathetic to others sorrows. She gets along with most very well but will be rather blunt to those she doesn't, normally this is because of previous wrong doing. Medea does love joking around and being playful but takes her job as seer very seriously. She will throw everything else away and can become almost cold when she needs to or is focusing on her work.
Tribe: Iron Mountain
Tribal Rank: Seer
Background: When Medea hatched her mother as well as most of the other nest mothers expressed deep concern that her dark coloring was a curse or bad omen of things to come for the tribe. The previous seer, Vate, who was growing old heard of this and chose to take her in and raised her to take his place should he pass away. (Whether this was an act of kindness towards Medea or passive aggressiveness towards the nest mothers is still unclear, most believe it was both.)
As she grew the tribes worries faded and she quickly proved herself to be an adept healer and prophet. After Vate felt her fit to properly take his place she presented her full abilities to the emperor(ess) and the council who unanimously agreed. Shortly after an official ceremony was held and the tribe wholeheartedly celebrated her ascension and Vate's retirement.
Also, her being melanistic causes her to overheat easier then most, so she retreats into her cave during most of the day and only goes to the molten flow on cool nights. However if she is needed she will do anything necessary of her but will then risk suffering from severe dizzy spells and fainting if she isn't careful.
Extra Information: Named after an ancient greek priestesses of Hecate.
6 for a king cobra would be about the equivalent of 24 in a human lifespan.
Cobras don't always have their hood flared, I'll specify when she does <3
Also would totally be willing to have an apprentice / assistant if anyone's interested.
Name: Artemis
Age: 9 years
Gender: Female
Species: Harpy Eagle
Appearance: 6ft wingspan (Look at this beauty, I'm in love! <3 <3 <3)
Personality: Artemis prefers solitude to the company of others, with only a clawful of exceptions. Due to her solitary nature she tends to be soft spoken but will make sure she is heard when she feels it necessary. She decided to become a hunter instead of a warrior like the rest of her family had for generations. However her family is extremely proud of her hunting capabilities and she personally takes great pride being able to feed her tribe. Artemis also really enjoys playful competitions in anything with anyone as she's always trying to push her own boundries.
Tribe: Kite
Tribal Rank: Hunter
Background: W.I.P.
Extra Information: Would be about 27 when compared to a human lifespan.
I had to flip a coin to help me decide between the harpy and stellar eagle, they're both so cool! Well all birds of prey are, but I digress.
