Okay then, my character:

Name: Gale Funnel (hint, much?)

Age: 14

Gender: male

Animal: Sydney Funnel Web spider (*mwahaha* :D )

Good or Evil: Evil. Definitely

Appearance: tall, could be defined as spidery, oily black hair, black eyes, blue lips (like he has a permanent case of frostbite), wears black.

Characteristics: He, while being a calm and collected person, will attack viciously at the slightest provocation, be it friend or foe. Has a tendency to eavesdrop and snark sarcastically, not a very sociable person. Prefers the dark.

Strengths: Sydney. Funnel. Web. Damn. Spider! (they're terrifying, trust me). The spider's venom will kill a man within 40 min, alongside a dose of excruciating pain,t hey can swim, they attack without provocation. In human form, he is agile and nimble.

Weaknesses (at least one): his animal, while deadly, and as large as your face, also has the weaknesses of a spider. In human form, he's not very strong.

History (optional):

Other: up for a bit of romance, if anyone has the guts to even talk to this guy.

Laiel - good

Diablo's voice was faintly heard on the other side of the door. Laiel didn't even need to check to know that it would be locked, and it didn't look like he could knock it down. Snarling silently and lashing his tail in frustration, he began pacing, trying to think of some way to either get Diablo out or get himself in there. If I had jewels or something, maybe I could lure him...

But of course he didn't have anything. He could even hear Diablo in there, threatening to tear Cora's hands off for some reason, and there was nothing he could do! My job was supposed to be simple!

Suddenly he heard other voices - Hunter and Roger, talking. Too late he realized they were coming his way. He looked around - there was nowhere to hide. Praying that they wouldn't turn down his corridor, he crouched, ready to fight or flee.

Hey guys, this is actually starrgazer. My cousin (for some strange, unknown reason) cleared my history, clearing all my saved passwords in the process. The email I'm using isn't the one I used to sign up for starrgazer apparently...

Oh, and @Italy, Welcome to the dark side :) *cackles*


Hunter - evil

Was there a sudden lack of oxygen in the atmosphere, or was that just me? Simply walking seemed a lot harder too. I hope this numb feeling slowly creeping through my bones was normal too.

"Hmm....?" I said distractedly to Roger. Huh, he seemed to grow even more black moles now. In fact, the whole room was covered in them.

"The base was..." I wonder where we stashed the first aid kit... "Wasn't it already standing when we got here?"

I stumbled uncertainly. Blindly groping for a place to sit, I heard a small groan of old wooden floorboards being stepped on. Everyone else should be out fighting, so why was there someone here?

Huh, I must also be getting delusional now.

"I don't know," I began again, slightly annoyed, "Maybe it was an abandoned house?"

I sighed and leaned into the nearest chair to me. I feel bad for the poor fella that would have to get the bloodstains out later...

I dimly saw Roger walk forward, frowning and about to make another point when I grumbled loudly and tried to look as menacing as I can.

"Bandages, Roger, I'm going to bleed out or something. I'd hate for you to spill out all your ideas and find out that you've been talking to a corpse."

All right you can join Italian. Oh, and when you talk out of character, it has to be on the DT or in a spoiler. :D



Blighton-

Roger left with Hunter. I had listened in hiding. Altough Hunter was weak, I knew she could still fight. I walked back to A.J. "A.J. try to find Jayden. I'll go tell Laiel to regroup here with Elsa. I don't know if they got Cora." I told her.

She ran off in pursuit of Jayden's scent and I folled Laiel's.

I reached their base and noticed that Hunter and Roger had arrrived. "Hunter, Roger! Come out, I want to have a nice little chat." I yelled trying to get them out, so Laiel and Elsa could escape. If they weren't captured.

*Sorry I haven't posted in awhile; couldn't find an opportunity and then forgot where I was.*
Elsa-Good
The dragon shuts himself in the room with Cora. I fly out, looking for a window I could fly through but find none. Roger and Hunter pass under me but don't notice me because I duck behind the roof before they see me. When they've passed I try to get inside to tell Laiel, but can't find a way in besides flying down the hallway right over Roger and Hunter's heads.
Blighton calls for Roger and Hunter to come out, so I go and find him, my heart sinking as I see Jayden's not with him. Where is he? I know I should stay, but I have to find Jayden. I fly off, searching for movement with my raptor vision, until I spot A.J. and drop down to talk to her.

Diablo Draco~~~~~~Evil

I rolled my eyes. "Not a chance. The only kind of jewel you'll ever get is the ones I don't like. The ring you once had happened to have a jewel that I like." I sat down, feeling a little sore from behind for some reason. "Believe it or not, this entire collection had started long before the Squad split. About two months after I was given the form of a dragon. Turns out having an animal form could also affect human personalities at any level. Now I have myself a crown jewel to my collection: a damsel in distress."
The mountain cat looked confused.
"You never read the classic tales of dragons. Natural jewel hoarders, si, but also captors of princesses. Just your bad luck, you're locked up by a dragon." I got up, then saw my reflection on a chalice. My back was scarred and slightly bleeding. I growled. "Maldita león. Your knight just made me angry. You do not want to make me angry." I growled again, deeply this time.
Look down and show some mercy if you can.
Look down, look down, upon your fellow man.

Laiel

"Hunter, Roger! Come out, I want to have a nice little chat." Laiel rose from his crouch, ears straightening. Blighton? What on earth is he doing?

Diablo was still talking - calling Cora a damsel in distress. Then he seemed to notice the wounds Laiel had given him. That still made him sick, but Laiel thought that maybe if Diablo was angry enough...

Shifting out of his lion form, he knocked on the door and assumed a position that he hoped seemed cocky. All the dragons from stories Laiel had heard could get careless when they were angry - or at least more aggressive. If he could lead Diablo away, maybe he could salvage the plan without having to start from the beginning.

Elsa-
I changed into my human form.
"Where's Jayden?" I ask AJ.
"Ssh, I'm following his scent," AJ says. I turn back into an eagle, sniff, and almost pass out. Lots and lots of blood. Lots and lots of Jayden blood.
"Jayden!" I squawk and rush away, searching madly for him. Please be alive, I pray, please oh please be alive.

Jayden

Wake up, Jayden. You're pathetic, sitting here like this. Wake up, stand, and walk back to base. You're stronger than this.

My eyes flutter open, slowly closing again. I stir, a moan escaping my lips before I can stop it, and then open my eyes once more. Rayah is to my left.

Shit

I try to jerk myself upwards and away but can't, the effort failed. Then I blink and think I'm hearing the beating of wings.

No, Els. Don't come. Don't see me like this.

My side shoots up in pain again, the gash across my face no different, and I gasp, my eyes slowly drooping again.
I'm never what I like
I'm double sided
And I just can't hide
I kind of like it
When I make you cry
'Cause I'm twisted up, twisted up

A.J

Elsa and I smelled blood and rushed of in the direction it was coming from. Since I was on the ground I got to him first. He lay limp and bloodied on the ground. When I was close nough to him I shifted back into a human and ran the rest of the way.
Elsa flew down next to me and changed back too.
"Oh god, oh god, oh god!" She chanted looking at all the blood. I checked for a pulse. It was there but it was slow and faint.
He gasp and opens his eyes but only for minute before they are clodes again. I can tell he is in a lot of pain. Elsa cradles his head in her lap.
"Wake up Jayden, please wake up."

Elsa-
I collapse next to his side, cradling his head in my arms. He's completely covered in blood. He locks eyes with me for a time, and I try to gain strength from his stare. Then he closes his eyes again and the panic steps in, clogging my throat, each breath harder than the last.
"Is he alive?" I demand of AJ, "Is he ALIVE?" She nods, but she doesn't look hopeful. She doesn't think he'll stay with me much longer.
"Jayden?" I call, "Jayden, can you hear me? You're going to be fine. We're going to fix you up and-and..." I sob, unable to say anything else. My Jayden, my rock, my sun, so broken. It's my turn to save him. I have to save him. But there's so much blood... I can't. I don't even know where to start. I have to and I can't.
"Just talk to me," I whisper, "tell me your okay." I grab his hand as Rayah continues to work on him, hoping against hope he'll survive, or that he'll at least speak. I've never wanted anything so badly in my life than I want to hear his voice right now. I'd be locked up in that stupid cage for a year, just to hear him speak once more; I'd spend my life in the blasted thing if he could just live another day; just see the sun rise one more time.

Hunter - evil



"Hunter, Roger! Come out, I want to have a nice little chat."

I sighed like a thousand year old man. Somewhere above, god and all his angels must be laughing at me.

I looked at Blighton who stepped out from his hiding place. Warily, I tried to sit up taller in my chair, hoping he didn't notice my wince of pain.

"You want to catch up, my dear old friend?" I drawled out sarcastically. I much rather preferred this conversation when I didn't feel/look like a squashed tomato.

He looked at me amused, daring a few steps closer. Though hazy and drunk-like, I could still see the discreet glances he kept on making at the place where imaginative noises came up. Maybe there was something/one there after all.

"A bit scratched up there, Hunter?" He yet again walked closer, effectively blocking my view of the exit. Not suspicious at all. Where was everyone else? Diablo? Calla and Adrian? Surely Gale had to be near by too. They needed to check this out.

I growled and looked for Roger again who was standing still, staring at Blighton.

"Come on! I'm not going to bleed out any slower just because I'm maving a conversation!" I snapped.

I whipped my head back to Blighton (which resulted in even more black dots) and smiled venomously, "Please sit, make yourself at home."

Rayah-

I try to clean him up, and put a cold towel on his forehead, I check his pulse and smile, "He'll be fine." I said putting a bandage on his arm.
All you need is faith, trust, and a little bit of pixie-dust!
