NORTHSPRING BESTIARY

Northspring Harpy:

Edana is pure evil; her heart is one of crystal. She is void of any emotion aside from the hate she feels towards all others. She is queen of the Hatetalons. She is the one that led the harpy to the place where they reside. Her throne of power, is one led with a strong talon. Those who challenge her role, beware..


Thessaly is a devious, gypsy-like harpy. She loves to perch at high points, observing the world and scouting out her next victim. While she's an adept hunter and fighter, she loves to "play" with unsuspecting stallions... often luring them in with a dance or a game only to attack when they least suspect. Even if she doesn't aim to kill her prey, sometimes she makes away with a new shiny trinket for herself. So even when she lets victims go with their life, she usually will keep some token.

Northspring Windcaller:




Her basic bio/history:
Personality: Unlike her sister, Banshee deals with their abandonment poorly, feeling resentful to her absent mother and restless in her herd. She loves her herd sisters, and adhered to their tenants of strength, looking out for each other, and dominance over males, but carries a chip on her shoulder that leads her to be sometimes snappy or violent.
History:
Their mother was a stunning, radiant hippogriff mare - her body glimmered and shone in an opalescent, rainbow hue, with cascading feathery mane and tail. Their father was a creepy, ichory Kalona of corruption who sought out and took the radiant spectacle that was their mother. When she realized she was pregnant, their mother abandoned the baskets, ashamed of what had happened to her and not wanting to deal with the progeny of such a monster. They were found by the Hatetalon harpies and raised among the herd as one of their own.

Northspring Roguefeather:


Badb Catha is a Hatetalon, she is a Hippogryph who has chosen to call the Northspring herd/flock her home. Like other Hatetalon's she is not a friendly creature, far from it, she is not as aggressive as other members of the flock, instead she steers more towards the sinister than psychopathic killer. She is an omnivore and whilst she'll happy enough graze on grasses and pick away on berries and other such things, she's far happier eating some meaty morsel. Badb is sly and cunning, she's more than likely to sit in a tree some distance from the creature which holds her interest and watch them for some time and learn what, if anything, she can gain from meeting them. She's not likely to be angered easily and will not simply attack other non flock members on sight.

Badb has a strong respect for physical strength within others. She herself is not a large creature but she admires others for their prowess from afar. However, if her favoured losses a battle or fight, she is fickle, she'll not support them in their needs further, quite the opposite, she'll harry them and attempt to bring them down, buy finding someone stronger and better to kill them off, and will more than likely feed on the aftermath of the battle. She is never far from a battle sight, she enjoys the noise, the blood and the carnage, though she'll never enter in it herself, more than likely you'll catch her glowing red eyes watching you from afar as you stare death in the face. Seeing Badb is never usually a good thing, it means death is usually just around the corner.

Northspring Hide-Flayer:


Macha is Badb's sister. (OCC: there is a third sister, Anand) Macha, unlike her sister is less cautious in nature, quite the opposite in fact, Macha loves to get her talons stuck deep down into some poor creatures flesh, tearing the life from them. Blood thirsty she may be, she doesn't torture prey, she finds that practice distasteful and also a waste, for she is a Hide-Flayer and such torture practices would ruin the pelts and skins she harvests. Macha knows her own strength and also the limits of it, so whilst she may challenge herself with the targets she selects, she also is keenly aware that some targets and goals are just a little beyond her reach. Badb is a mare of few choice words, to allure her prey into a deadly embrace, whereas Macha taunts and goads her targets, she is quick to angry and is very abrasive, lacking her sisters 'charms'. Much like her sister she calls the Northspring flock her home and is proud to the name of Hatetalon, she is truly bonded to her sisters (the flock) cause(s) and will do anything to support Edana in her battles.


Northspring Drum Maker:

Personality: Siren is delicate and even-tempered, compared to the typical Hatelaton. She's quiet, friendly (to her sisters), and loves art and beauty. She's a bit naive and not-too-wise. And while she's not as bloodthirsty or violent as her sisters, she doesn't have any desire to leave or change things. She's perfectly content with the status-quo, she just prefers to leave the more violent aspects to others, and focus on her less glorious contributions to the flock.

She takes her profession as a Drum-Maker very seriously, especially the painting and decorating of her precious artworks. As her name implies, she's most enthralled, however, with music. She loves to listen, and loves to sing even more. Her fetching looks, long feathers, delicate frame, and diamond voice make her an ideal trap for males.


Nothspring Walkerward:

With Her Walkerward Armor

Personality: Stern and quick to prove her dominance to any upstart mare that may contest her authority with a quick backhanded strike of her claws, Bloodclaw is a mare with a driven duty and relishes in the suffering of their enemies and the pride of Northspring Might. Her loyalties lie only in three places: Their Queen, her job, and the Bloodslash arena, which she lovingly refers to as 'The Pit". And while she prefers her prey to be in one piece for a better spectacle should you be headed for The Pit, just because she tends to take you in live doesn't mean you arrive unharmed....

History: Born to the Dustwallow Queen Adhil, who had a tryst with a pureblooded Fire Ulun'suti, Bloodclaw was always combative, driven for the challenge, her blood burning hot and a need for control driving her to a job she could truly enjoy from a young age. However her people were hungry, and mistreated by her mother, and when Adhil refused to bow to Edana's demands to surrender or let their overpowered flock be destroyed, Bloodclaw violently stood up to her mother and swore full allegance to their invaders, not only for the sake of her people, but also due to her being awed by the grand and fierce armor worn by the walkerwards and Edana. Her greatest pride was to be accepted into their rank, savoring each raid, each day at the arena, and each life she takes to the cheers and screeches of her spectating 'sisters'. She quickly fought her way up in the ranks, her loyalty fierce. She denounced her Dustwallow name and took the title of Northspring, the name of the unified flocks formed by the Flocks bitter enemy.
