How important do you think intelligence is?"Vastly important. It's better to know what a skinwalker is and what they are capable of, then just assuming everyone is friendly. Ignorance is not bliss."

... What is the meaning of life?"To live life to the best of your ability and bring yourself happiness in whatever way you need to... Provided it's not causing harm or unhappiness to someone else, of course."

Owner's Name: Rein_Carnation Participating Soquili: Hsien-Ko Link to Teepee:XxX How important do you think intelligence is? Standing idly the warrior mare spoke her eyes averted, "Intelligence is what keeps one alive even in a dire situation. One must always listen to reason within".
Do you like to think about the consequences of your actions or just dive right in?"It depends honestly how grave the situation is depending on the threat to the decision I undertake" she spoke smoothly with a flick of her ear, "For instance if a dragon were attacking your herd without warning you'd react quickly. Whereas if it was prior notice intelligence would calculate your direct plan of attack or safety".
... What is the meaning of life?Now she smiled a consenting nod of her head, "I believe the true meaning of life is to simply live. That being of course in honor giving your own for those that can not."
Owner's Name: Rein_Carnation Participating Soquili: Andromeda Link to Teepee:XxX
How important do you think intelligence is?Closing her eyes she spoke softly her voice seeming to reach outward unto the great unknown, "Intelligence is important to some as love is unto others. For myself in long travels I have found intelligence to be the foothold of my thoughts and decisions."
Do you like to think about the consequences of your actions or just dive right in?A soft laugh echoed from her chest, "As a foal most dive without regrets. As adults we tend to see the consequences as they truly manifest themselves to be".
... What is the meaning of life?"Ah" she nodded, "Life's but a mystery perhaps the farthest galaxy that stretches into eternity. Though deep in our hearts every living creatures knows the infinite secret ... That which is life".
Owner's Name: Rein_Carnation Participating Soquili: Peaches Link to Teepee:XxX
How important do you think intelligence is?Smiling her eyes bright as she nibbled on some sweet clover nearest to her hoof, "I think it's very important. If you're not very smart it gets you in horrible trouble".
Do you like to think about the consequences of your actions or just dive right in?Now she blushed, "Well I've been known to not think of what I was doing by jumping headfirst into a bog", chucking she looked wistful if not sheepish, "after a nice bush of berries too. Well you can guess I learned from that mistake real quick."
... What is the meaning of life?"Well" she spoke softly, "to live and be happy. If you aren't happy what is there to live for, right?'
Owner's Name: Rein_Carntion Participating Soquili: Cerylia Link to Teepee:XxX
How important do you think intelligence is?"Intelligence is something that we all withhold. Whomever chooses to use it would be wisest" she spoke with a soft tone reminiscent of serenity within a falling snow.
Do you like to think about the consequences of your actions or just dive right in?"In all due truth" she closed her eyes, "I prefer to think of consequences before ever putting myself or others in danger."
... What is the meaning of life?"The meaning of life" she breathed outwards her eyes closing once more, "is to live of course". Reopening her eyes she spoke again, "All of us from great animals to the smallest have a purpose. That purpose and meaning is to carry on the species. We live in happiness raising our children then watch them do the same. When it is our time to pass onward then our children shall carry on sharing what we did before"
Owner's Name: Rein_Carnation Participating Soquili: Tahiti Link to Teepee:XxX
How important do you think intelligence is?"Oh ho ho" she laughed stamping her hoof, "Being smart is a great attribute! Especially when you can defy the odds if you believe in yourself".
Do you like to think about the consequences of your actions or just dive right in?"Think?" now her voice grew louder, "Seriously if you just take too long thinking you are not living. Sure its dangerous but isn't that what living really is? Adrenaline! Whoo I feel like flying today!"
... What is the meaning of life?"To Live!" she shouted her blood pumping through her veins, "You haven't lived till you defied the law of gravity. I mean the rush it's so amazing! Those that live in fear will never know the true meaning of life nor will they feel the rush of the wind across their faces! It's so intense but boy do I love it!""
Owner's Name: `raze Participating Soquili: Miranda Link to Teepee: X
How important do you think intelligence is? Miranda exaggerates a blink, "I mean what kind of soquili would say intelligence is unimportant? That seems like a highly unintelligent thing to say or admit." She shakes her head.
Do you like to think about the consequences of your actions or just dive right in? "Most of the time I do. I like to avoid hairy situations made by rash decisions. But spontaneity is good, as long as you have an idea of what you are spontaneously getting into." She tilts her head side to side, thinking, "Like spontaneously agreeing to go for a flight to a familiar creek? Why not? Spontaneously agreeing to pick a fight with a Kalona? Ehhhh...."
... What is the meaning of life? "To learn, to teach, to share," Miranda cracked a smile. "What else is the point of continuing a familial line if you are not teaching them and sharing your experiences with them?"
Owner's Name: `raze Participating Soquili: Eir Link to Teepee: X
How important do you think intelligence is? Eir stares blankly at the questioner, unamused. "Intelligence is only important to have for survival's sake. It's what keeps you alive. But lack of intelligence... that's what's for dinner." Her lips upturn slowly into a cold smile..
Do you like to think about the consequences of your actions or just dive right in? "Dive right in most of the time, I trust myself to handle whatever I get into. The only real consequences you need to worry about is making a decision that causes you to go hungry, or causes you boredom. Oh, and anything that could cost you your life, I suppose." Eir's smile reaches her eye as a warm chuckle escapes her lips.
... What is the meaning of life? Eir casts a sideways glance, "There is no meaning and if you are searching for one, you are wasting your time." She laughs and tosses her head so her mane flips. "Life can be very short... and if your head is in the clouds looking for a purpose, you'll make a very good meal for someone whose sole purpose is to eat heartily."

How important do you think intelligence is?Delilah blinks then looks down as she considers the question. "Oh I...I don't know... I guess it's pretty important?" She took a deep breath and seemed about ready to apologize for not being sure of her answer.
Do you like to think about the consequences of your actions or just dive right in?"Oh I try to think of the consequences of my actions but I think I accidentally just dive right in. Fenri would say I think too much and need to be more spontaneous but considering how often I seem to get into 'trouble'.... I think it's better to consider things first."
... What is the meaning of life?"I-I-I'm sorry but I just don't know that answer! Excuse me... I um... have to go now! Sorry!"
Owner's Name: Bluedemonwolf Participating Soquili: Poecile Cheeseburger Link to Teepee:[X]
How important do you think intelligence is?Poecile's eyes glitter as you begin to ask him questions. "How important intelligence is? I'd say it's highly important. It's good to know just what bugs someone and what is going on in a situation. Could save your life if you know what I mean." He grins mischievously at you.
Do you like to think about the consequences of your actions or just dive right in?"I'm not one for considering the consequences of what I do. I have a job to do and I do it. Quite well I must add. So I have found that just diving in really works for me."
... What is the meaning of life?"Ah... the meaning of life. Wouldn't you like to know." He sticks out his tongue at you and quickly leaves.
Owner's Name: Bluedemonwolf Participating Soquili: Bastion Link to Teepee:[X]
How important do you think intelligence is? Bastion grins at you making you take a small step back. "Intelligence is very important. Gotta stay one step ahead of your prey and the only way to do that is to be smarter than them."
Do you like to think about the consequences of your actions or just dive right in? "I like to think that I'm about even on that score. I do think about the consequences of my actions but sometimes things require action, not thought."
... What is the meaning of life? "The meaning of life.... I don't think there is a meaning to it."
Owner's Name: Bluedemonwolf Participating Soquili: Chares Link to Teepee:[X]
How important do you think intelligence is?Chares considers your question for several minutes. "Intelligence is pretty important but I don't think everyone has to value it the same. Some may not hold it to a high standard or may think that something else is more important."
Do you like to think about the consequences of your actions or just dive right in?"I think carefully of the consequences of my actions before acting. I would never want to do something that could have dire consequences for myself or another."
... What is the meaning of life?He tilts his head as he carefully considers this one. "I would say the meaning of life is to live it fully and to find happiness and love. Without love and happiness what is there?"
Owner's Name: Bluedemonwolf Participating Soquili: Angra Mainyu Link to Teepee:[X]
How important do you think intelligence is?Angra scoffs at you. "Intelligence isn't as important as some things, like strength. But I will say that it is important. If you're not smart you're dead."
Do you like to think about the consequences of your actions or just dive right in?"I let Bastion handle thinking of consequences. I'll just dive right in and get things taken care of."
... What is the meaning of life?"To eat annoying insects like you." He grins and snaps his teeth inches from your face. "I'm getting pretty hungry in fact."
Owner's Name: Kaya Wolf Moon Participating Soquili: Wolfheart Link to Teepee:[x]
How important do you think intelligence is?"Intelligence is vastly important. Without it, we become nothing more than beings of brute force with no real understanding for the world in which we live."
Do you like to think about the consequences of your actions or just dive right in?"That would depend on who you speak to. I personally believe that thinking too much on a situation can cloud one's vision and mind. Best to dive in as soon as possible. My bonded would say the opposite, however."
... What is the meaning of life?"42. Or, wait, was it love? I always manage to mix up those answers."

How important do you think intelligence is? "How important? Well...intelligence helps you see what is right and wrong...how to fix the wrong and make good choices for you and others you care about... so yes it is very important," she breathed staring upwards with a small smile, "I just wish my brother had more."
Do you like to think about the consequences of your actions or just dive right in? She looked down at the baskets at her feet with a thin laugh. "I would say I dive right in. Why overthink and complicate matters of the heart? I think just enough to get things done....or figure things out afterwards." She noses the basket that was obviously different than the others in a loving fashion.
... What is the meaning of life? "There is no meaning to life. Every life is different than the next," Tove stated with the strongest conviction she could muster, "There is only the journey to find meaning for yourself. Mine is to find a place where I belong. And I have."
Owner's Name: whoan Participating Soquili: Kinak Link to Teepee:Link
How important do you think intelligence is? Kinak shrugged, "Important? I guess it is if you need to get something out of your way."
Do you like to think about the consequences of your actions or just dive right in? The giant laughed heartily before deciding to answer. "I was once told by a smart person actions speak louder than words. You think of words. You just do action," he rumbled with a satisfied grin.
... What is the meaning of life? Kinak went quiet as he thought of an answer to such a deep question. Taking in a deep breath, he sighed, "To live."

Do you like to think about the consequences of your actions or just dive right in? "Nobody can tell vhat vill happen. Too many things come from one. I vant to say yes, but I am not old vise man," the frost giant mutters almost as if embarrassed.
... What is the meaning of life? Savva chewed his beard thoughtfully. What was the meaning of his life? He had two homes, one loving and the other freezing and alone. He had a rival in Kinak, someone he just could not beat, but a friend in him as well. Getting frustrated, the kirin huffed, "Vhat do you think?"

What daily rituals do you have?"When Tulio and I wake up, we do our morning wing and voice stretches. Which is to say, we limber up our wings and warm up our voices!"
Do you celebrate any special occasions?"Our companionniversary! Which is the day Tulio and I met. And then there's my actual anniversary with Oma, of course!"
Why, or why not?"Because it's good to remember, especially the things that are so important to us. And because it's fun to have something to look forward to every year!"
Do you think rituals can be important?"I'm sure they can be, especially for the Soquili who need them to feel better. I know a couple Soquili who enjoy having more structured lifestyles than others, so I'm sure that they must have plenty of rituals!"
What rituals do you find fascinating?"I've heard of some Soquili that celebrate the summer and winter solstices to do some form of healing rituals...? I don't know anything about that myself, since I'm not a participant, but they sound cool!"
Owner's Name: belloblossom Participating Soquili: Rosalyn Link to Teepee:Boop
What daily rituals do you have?"I tend to wake with the sun, so when everyone else is asleep, I go about tending the flowers."
Do you celebrate any special occasions?"Birthdays, mostly. And the beginning of winter, which is when Rosario and Savva come to visit me."
Why, or why not?"The coming together of a family is always something that should be celebrated!"
Do you think rituals can be important?"Of course they are! I'd lose my mind if I didn't have my daily rituals!"
What rituals do you find fascinating?"I'm not sure if I'd call them fascinating, but I appreciate the seasonal rituals in winter where the ground is covered with snow and the ground laid to rest and then again in the spring, when the snow melts and the ground comes out in full bloom! Those sound like rituals from Mother Nature herself, don't they?"
Have you ever taken part in them?"I do my part in making sure my garden is ready for the seasons, but I'm not sure if that counts to the extent that you're imagining."
Owner's Name: belloblossom Participating Soquili: Eleanor Link to Teepee:Boop

Do you celebrate any special occasions?"I used to act like every day was reason enough to celebrate, but now that there's specific days and seasons that I met certain folk or that certain baskets came into my life, I think I'm going to start celebrating specific occasions more often."
Why, or why not?"Because it's nice to look forward to something? I dunno! Why are you asking?"
Do you think rituals can be important?"Yeah, I guess."
What rituals do you find fascinating?"These spirit breeding prayer sessions were pretty cool."

Why, or why not? "Because that is the day our love took root and started to Bloom."
Do you think rituals can be important? "I guess they can be." She really doesn't get it.
What rituals do you find fascinating? "Oh yes they are. At least I believe they are."

What daily rituals do you have?
"Daily rituals? Oh goodness, I don't think I have any rituals... I mean, there are things I do every day, but it's not very ritual-y. I just like to start my day on the best hoof forward I possibly can! Does that count?"
Do you celebrate any special occasions?
"Oh I love celebrating special occasions! Births, reunions, anything! It means I get to make presents for the people I care about and I love, love, love getting the chance to surprise someone with a homemade gift! Just as long as Micah doesn't mind me taking a few feathers every now and again."
Why, or why not?
"Because it's important, of course! Goodness, it'd be so dull if we just sat around and didn't do anything; and not to mention how rude it is to not celebrate."
Do you think rituals can be important?
"Absolutely! Especially if you mean the mystical kind. My family has so many in it that try and read fortunes and practice divination that rituals have to be important. Even the ones where some just want to be sure they start their day off right can be super important."
What rituals do you find fascinating?
"All of them, I guess! I just think seeing rituals that others practice can be so, so neat."
Have you ever taken part in them?

"I always have to look my best. I make it absolutely pertinent that my mane is flawless and what better way to do that than to brush it 100 times."
Do you celebrate any special occasions?
"I celebrate finding shiny things by finding more shiny things. Any time I find a7nother things to add to my collection I love to celebrate lavishly. Other than that, no, I don't."
Why, or why not?
"Because if it's not about me, then there's no need to celebrate. I have the prettiest collection of all things that shine and glint in the sun, I should be the one being celebrated for my marvelous collection."
Do you think rituals can be important?
"If they're about beauty, then of course! It amazes me that that there are some that roam this earth without even thinking about glancing in the mirror to see how slovenly they look. It's so disgraceful."
What rituals do you find fascinating?
"Anything that involves looking beautiful. In the stories I've heard, princesses spend hours getting ready for wonderful dances by putting jewels and painting themselves nicely. I'd love to experience such rich delights for myself."

Do you celebrate any special occasions?
Why, or why not?
"Because it's fun to! Besides, I'm sure the soq I perform for have just as much fun watching me as I do performing for them."
Do you think rituals can be important?
"Yeah! Otherwise all those actors I've met wouldn't make such a big deal out of "stage luck" or whatever they call it. They're a superstitious bunch, but the rituals they have for warding off bad luck sure are fun."
What rituals do you find fascinating?
"Mostly the ones that are supposed to help with stage fright or anything that actors might think harmful to their performance. I think they're a little too out-there sometimes, but they're fun to learn about."
Have you ever taken part in them?
"Nah. I don't need some weird ritual to give me good luck; I'm my own good luck charm!"

Do you think rituals can be important?
"I don't think so. It seems like it wastes time unless it's something productive. Edelweiss has some rituals, but they just seem silly to me."

Pausing he looked toward the nearest meadow, "If I am not I stay with Ayelet leaving no threat to befall her".
Do you celebrate any special occasions?"The day the sky fell upon me causing my heart to flow once more. That was the day Ayelet came into my life".
Why, or why not?"Celebrating gives appreciation to the magic that flows within us all. Not following a memory would surely drown its purpose".
Do you think rituals can be important?"Certainly" he breathed deeply, "For some of us it is our very existence".
What rituals do you find fascinating?"Perhaps my daughter Kasumi always returning to the shoreline. She speaks of things to come which I can't fathom though her sons came from the same location".

What daily rituals do you have?"I like waking early and joining mother shelling along the shoreline. You get to smell the ocean after the tide recedes". He pondered for a moment, "Shelling also keeps the beach full of debri".
Do you celebrate any special occasions?"I may be about a year old so I'm not sure on that one yet. Perhaps when Kasumi found us washed up from the storm?"
Why, or why not?"I guess it would be something to remember finding us in all that debris".
Do you think rituals can be important?"Sure" he noted, "While it cleans the beach you always end up finding trinkets from faraway lands. You often have to wonder the story behind them."
What rituals do you find fascinating?"There are lots of rituals like shelling, letting the ocean swirl at your feet, giving thanks to the Ocean, etc".
Have you ever taken part in them?"All of them which I do with much pride and gratitude".

What daily rituals do you have?"Hmm I wake up, go shelling, go adventuring" he chuckled, "that a good enough answer?"
Do you celebrate any special occasions?"I personally don't for myself but I do for my mother and brother. You know the day we washed up o the beach and all".
Why, or why not?"Because it's what I need to do. Seriously, Kasumi can seem very tranquil but she can get a mean side if I disobey her. Heh better to not rile the ocean when it's in a good mood".
Do you think rituals can be important?"Yeah" he snorted pawing at the ground, "Shelling can get really boring though. I don't know how my brother puts up with it".
What rituals do you find fascinating?"Some sure" he chuckled, "especially if it involves my brother".
Have you ever taken part in them?"When we were foals Baha and I used to race to the shoreline. Granted he always won but it was a run ritual we made up for ourselves".

What daily rituals do you have?"I do not know about a ritual, but I would say that I enjoy pranking at least once a day. It helps keep the spirit up."
Do you celebrate any special occasions?"Birthdays! All Hallow's Eve! Solstice! There are a few others as well though these are my favorites to celebrate."
Why, or why not?"Because there are presents for two of them and the other is all about tricks and pranks. Quite frankly, All Hallow's Eve is my favorite day of the year for this very reason."
Do you think rituals can be important?"I am sure it would depend on the ritual. But, if I had to say, then I would suppose there is an importance to them, yes."
What rituals do you find fascinating?"Honestly, I have not put much effort into learning or studying about rituals. I only know of a few off hand, but they are not so interesting to me."
Have you ever taken part in them?"Indeed not. They would be too bland for my liking."

What daily rituals do you have?"I would not call them rituals necessarily. Day to day chores or tasks would be more accurate. But, in answer, I patrol my herd's territory throughout the day and also keep my sister out of any trouble she might stumble upon."
Do you celebrate any special occasions?"Yes. We celebrate most things that others do- the solstice, All Hallow's Eve, birthdays...My herd also has a Lantern Ceremony to honor our departed friends and family."
Why, or why not?"Because life is worth celebrating, even when it ends."
Do you think rituals can be important?"Very. Rituals give us a sense of peace. Even the most mundane of rituals can be a calming influence on the mind."
What rituals do you find fascinating?"Hmmm, I do not think I have a favorite or most fascinating. They all have a unique quality about them."
Have you ever taken part in them?"The ones I have mentioned, yes, many times."
