Social Outcasts

I feel in the mood to create a storybook, but would also like it to go somewhere, someplace.

Idea

There are a load of exiles travelling through the wilderness. That's it; the rest is up to everyone else, and wherever the story goes is where the story goes.

Consider the Following

Why was your particular exile exiled? Where they ever even part of society? How did they meet with everyone else? What's their goal--if any?

Rules

No fantasy races. Actually, no, fantasy races are allowed, but they must be your own. No elves, dwarves, orcs, goblins or dragons.
No god-modding.
No controlling anyone else, unless the player specifies.
Please try not to go overboard with romance, but a little bit is always fine; namely, don't have your character as a mad prostitute.
No sex scenes.
Keep it PG-13, please.

Yeah, that's fine

I'll just wait for a few more, and we can start. Any ideas for a starting plot? Should I start a DT?

Oh, and you can have as many characters as you want, so long as you can control them all.

If you are making a DT post the link here please.

As for ideas i have none, anyone else??

Winston

The horizon was baking. Every step he took tugged from within his muscles, leaving a blurred imprint upon the sand dunes. His water satchel was crisp as he lifted it up to his lips. Sparing with just a few drops of hot water, he threw it onto the ground. Water piled, layer after layer upon the endless stretch of desert, mirroring the blazing sun upon Winston's skin. Each time he blinked, the delusion of a trillion sand grains met him, then blurred away, scolding his eyes.

A few leagues away, there were trees, hundreds and thousands of them in vast lands, green, brown and blue. It kept him going. Each time he passed a sand dune, he would gaze openly, not really caring how he got there. Freedom was nigh, an empty stretch of desert away.

(Sorry for the shortness, thought it might get it going.)

There was sand everywhere. In his pants, his shoes, his eyelashes, between his toes. Each grain seemed to search out the most tender parts of his body to rub and chafe.
Nokie stopped, and adjusted the cloth he had wound around his face. He had been walking aimlessly for days. He wished he had known a little bit more about geography before he had set off, maybe then he wouldn't be stuck in the desert.
And now he was seeing shapes through the heatwaves. In the distance he was sure he could see trees, but he had seen a lake only hours before that had turned out to be another stretch of desert. He scanned the horizon, his eyes stopping on yet another hopeful shape.
His tongue ran across lips cracked and bleeding. Nokie squinted. Was that someone, on the next dune? He couldn't tell.
But maybe they had water.
Flicking his tail, Nokie set off with more determination then ever.

Name: Maddox Norther
Age: 13
Gender: Female
Race: Fennec
Personality: Quiet, sly and very, very sweet Maddox has a kind heart and loves to play.
Physical Description: 4' 6, her body is like a walking toothpick. Her skin is so pale it looks translucent, her hair is barely neck length and as black as raven's feathers. Her eyes are silver with golden flecks and kind of cat-eye shaped. She has a longish, bushy, snow white dog tail and her ears are pointed. She has claws on both of hands and feet and has K9 fangs.
Reason for being Exiled: Her entire family was murdered and so she was first to be blamed, when evidence proved it wasn't her who did it she just up and left because she didn't have anyone anymore.

(hope this is okay, my character profiles usually suck)

Maddox

The sand wasn't so bad, if you forgot about how it would scrape your eyes, or how it would get into your mouth and make that horrible crunch noise when you chewed. Okay, really, the sand was horrible. Nothing could be worse than having to walk in this desert.

Taking my cantine of water from my bag, I drank very little of it but savored every gulp. I knew I would need to find more water soon, but I just didn't know where I would. There were no lakes in the desert, there wasn't really any source of water anywhere in the desert. Looking up I saw something off into the distance. Trees? I thought to myself and then heard something behind me.

"Hey! You there!" went the shout. When I turned around I saw a person... Well, a monkey type thing running towards me. "Please, tell me you have water" screamed the thing once it was right infront of me, automaticaly I took my cantine from my bag again and handed it to the monkey person. After a while of hearing nothing but the thing's gulping, he stopped drinking and looked at me, "Thanks" he said and studied my, "the name's Nokie." He said and extended one of his... Hands?

"Um... I'm Maddox" I said, still confused at what this thing was.

The forest isn't that far from my old village. Sure, there is a bit of desert in the way, but that will be out of the way soon enough, and I'd never have to see my parents glare at me like that ever again.

I still couldn't believe that they didn't believe me. They knew it wasn't my fault. Maybe they just wanted to get rid of me anyway? Well, I don't care anymore. I don't care about them, and I don't care why I had to leave...

That's what I told myself hundreds of times. Maybe millions. I lost count on the treacherous journey through the desert. It'd already been a week since I left my home. After I'd cried my eyes out the first night and drank half my canteen I realised that was only going to dehydrate me faster. I had to be careful from now on.

I'm all alone now. I have to take care of myself however I need to... It's not like I care that my family hates me... I don't care... I began again, trudging through the neverending sand.

Nokie shook the girl's hand, before releasing it suddenly. A grin flashed across his face, he was in much better spirits now. He didn't like to be alone.
"What's ya name, Darlin'?"
The girl's eyes narrowed slightly at the word 'Darlin', but her voice was friendly enough. "Maddox."
Nokie grinned wider. "Maddox. Nice name."
"Uh, thanks."
Silence fell, and Nokie noticed her staring at his tail, his hands, then back at his face. Her eyes were strange, catlike, and Nokie found her gaze slightly unnerving. Eventually she broke the silence. "If you don't mind me asking..."
"What am I? I'm a... uh, 'tree person' is the closest translation in this language. But honestly, love, I could ask the same thing of you," he pointed out her strange features one by one. "Tail, shorter then mine but wider, reminds me of my dog rover I had when I was seven... and have you ever seen the sun? Why aren't you as red as a lobster? Are you hungry? You look like you need a feed. Your ears are pointed too. Ain't seen that in a while. And has anyone ever told you you have very....unique eyes?"
Maddox looked down at herself. "I guess I'm not so 'normal' looking either."
Nokie grinned. "Don't ya worry bout it, love. Normal is overrated."
He turned back towards the horizon. "Just one more question."
"Yes?"
"Can you see those trees or am I bloomin' crazy?"
