Welcome to Gaia! ::

In her youth, Copena Jolon, as she was named, looked like your average foal. She was young, playful, if incredibly skittish. One day, however, she had found herself trapped in an old cemetery far to the east of the Kawani lands. She became frightened horribly during the night as a recently buried human, mistaken for dead, awoke inside their coffin and began to scream and claw at the opening.

As she fled through the cemetery, tree's scratched at her face and back like the claws of wild animals, scavengers startled and snarled at her as they dug at shallow graves, and tombstones cracked as she tumbled down hill through the mist and crashed into them, the rubble crumbling over her, hurting her. And finally she found a gap in the rusty gates and fled into the distance.

However, cemeteries are a common thing, and as she ran into cemetery after cemetery, her fear only grew as her scratches healed into rough scars. They itched and reminded her of the pain, of her fear, and gained a constant edge of terror, threatening her young, fragile mind.

And then, fed from the fear, her injuries began to manifest themselves into the image of her horror. It was the last straw for her mind, and to save itself it split, forming a protective personality of Jolon to shield Copena from the terror that now followed her, and the 'imaginary friend', while stern, slowly helped Copena from the brink.

But as they grew, Jolon found herself wishing to live her own life, and found her existence threatened as Copena recovered from her terror, and refused to help Copena any further, trying to hinder her growth for the sake of self survival rather then any malicious intent: something that kept the mirror that was their personality unmended and fragile.

Who knows when it will crack once again.
