Welcome to Gaia! ::

Name: Ekaterina Hopscotch
Nickname: Katya
About: Ekaterina "Katya" Hopscotch never meant to become Queen at such a young age (or perhaps even at all, considering how fond of beheadings the Queen was). Well aware that the circumstances surrounding her and her sister's arrival were somewhat unorthodox (though perhaps not by Wonderland standards) she rather doubted she would ever ascend to the throne. Of course, upon arriving to this new land that was exactly what happened, in a way. She was the leader of this merry expedition, and the eldest besides, and now instead of Princess she was a Queen. As such, she is understandably hesitant and protective of her siblings. Not one to come out and tell you she's royalty, she enjoys playing the role of "a peculiar stranger" and meeting the natives of this land. Her sisters are certainly subject to her mischievous side, and well aware that she liked to pull pranks whenever she gets the chance.
Capable of being diplomatic when it is absolutely necessary, Katya prefers a good game of Fade-Tag, collecting mushrooms in the forest, or merely sitting down for tea and cakes with those she cares about. If you're part of her family or her herd, she loves you for life... even when you try to cut off her head.

Name: Irina Knucklebones
Nickname: Iri
About: Irina Knucklebones is the next eldest sister, and was entirely relieved with a perfectly plausible reason to escape Wonderland came up. She loved the place and the people, of course, but the Queen's temper was known and Irina was very fond of her head (thank you very much). It had her lovely eyes and her tall tall ears attached to it, which made it one of her best features (not to mention her grin). So no, the head staying where it was was perfectly fine for Irina indeed. And finding new people to con and trick? That was icing on a very delicious tea cake, as far as she is concerned. The one most likely to invite you to tea (and pick your pockets clean while plying you with cakes) is Irina, make no mistake. She is protective of Katya and the heir, Serafima. A collector of stories, picker of pockets, starter of mischief and many other things besides. Irina's temper changes quickly, she can be lovingly grooming you one moment and eyeing your neck for the noose the next. There's no guessing, really, but do your best to stay on her good side and she might just lead you around the Frumious Snapper, rather than into his waiting jaws. (Might.)

Name: BluRazberry JinxParTea
Nickname: Blu
About:

Name: Kittredge
Nickname: Kit
About: Kittredge is the youngest of the Cheshire sisters and the only one to be sent away to study amongst the Spade Clan. Showing much promise in her training as a Vorpal Blade she was elected to become the Vorpal Sword. She equal parts fierce and ridiculous and has never seen a problem with being both. She is quick to act so when she learned that her sisters were departing she was quick to follow after them to make certain that they would be safe on their journey despite barely knowing them. To follow her sisters, however, it meant leaving behind anyone and anything she had ever really known. The realization hit her hard at first. After coming to the conclusion that her sisters would spoil her just as badly as the Spades had, however, Kit settled right into her new life.
Her days mostly consist of training, playful and not so playful fighting, and eating more cake than any creature has any right to consume. She tends to have a playful demeanor but don’t let that fool you; Kittredge can gut her opponents with lightning speed all while wearing her prize winning smile. (Though to be honest she’d rather have cake or three.)

Name: Charlbury Chase
Nickname: Charl
About: Charlbury is the third youngest of the cheshire sisters, but still has a lot of youthful rambunctiousness to her personality. She was hesitant to move away from their old home and misses it still, but she couldn't stand to see her sisters leave without her. Sometimes she resents them for this, though she has acclimated well to their new digs.
In a lot of ways, she has alway been equal part cat and horse. She enjoys scratching her claws against trees or very large mushrooms, knocking tea cups off tables, and smelling what everyone else is eating. Though she is not particularly large for a soquili, the humans whose laps she sits in might tell you otherwise. Another catlike habit that she took to is hunting. She'll chase a feather, but she'd much rather chase a bird. She's proud to carry her catches back to her sisters to eat.
She is rarely seen without her deck of cards. She can do every card trick in the book and a few more that she invented herself. She likes to convince people to bet on her card tricks. This is a bad idea. Also, sometimes she rhymes, sometimes she doesn't. No one knows why.

Name: Catriona Cricket
Nickname: Catri
About: As the second youngest of her sisters, Catri sees a lot of what goes on but she says little of it. At least in any way that is obvious. She is the Riddle Speaker after all. Nothing can be said without more than one meaning, unless she is talking to Katya alone. Then she speaks as plainly as she can, which isn’t always that plain.
She is quieter than her sisters, but loves strange things and tea just as thoroughly. She chases rhymes and lyrics with patience and has the voice of a songstress. She sees nothing wrong using her voice to help take a mark down but she doesn’t usually instigate it.
There was no question that Catri would go with her sisters. She could see some of what was going on in Wonderland and it concerned her. Besides, she wanted to see Katya shine and dance the way she should be able too.

Name: Brillig
About: Brillig has spent much of his time wandering the lands, berating trees, thoroughly confusing the native creatures, and bemoaning his lost Wonderland. (The Queen's Wonderland, really. Don't let her know he's been calling it his.) He's quite capable of taking care of himself, and has made something of a living selling his services as a hired bodyguard. However, he craves the company of his fellow Wonderlanders.

Name: Wafi
Role: Artist & Lore Keeper's Apprentice
About: Wafi loves the nonsensical. If it doesn’t make sense then he will be delighted. But more than that he loves to say the truth and what he means without the others understanding him. He enjoys stories and history, believing there is a lot to be learned from them. Sharing that knowledge provides him even more enjoyment but he also believes that the one he is sharing it with needs to work to understand it so that they will learn it more thoroughly. He is kind and caring, with a silly mischievous nature.

Name: Epsilon
About: Epsilon has a rather complicated and checkered past, although he is not aware of much of it. He was raised in a loving and protective family along with his birth sister, Genesis Rose. Although he is aware he was adopted, he is unaware that he was stolen as a basket from his birth mother, Sophia Rose, by Berceuse, his adoptive brother, who had found out that Sophia had stolen him as a basket from his birth family and lied to Berceuse his entire life about being his real mother. Berceuse decided to confront Sophia but she had just given birth to her own foals and placed them in baskets when he arrived. Changing his plans, he instead continued to play ignorant of his real parentage to get her to keep her guard down so that Berceuse could instead take off with her baskets to save them from her influence and to raise them among his birth family instead. Epsilon has no idea that his parents did not choose to give him away, indeed, only Berceuse is aware of how Epsilon and Genesis truly came to be apart of his family. It has never bothered Epsilon that he was given up, but as he grew to adulthood, the differences between Epsilon and his adoptive family became glaringly obvious and his curiosity about where he came from grew.

For one, Epsilon is an omnivore, he craves meat to supplement his diet and he also has a strong attraction to things most other soquili would consider 'evil' for reasons he doesn't entirely understand. Blood and carnage are both delightful to his eye and he often experiences unsettling dark appetites that he can't quite explain. Although he has yet to act upon these urges, he finds their presence somewhat unnerving considering the dynamic of his family and his upbringing and avoids discussing them, even with those he would otherwise trust with his life.

Although Epsilon is very loyal, compassionate, and protective towards his family and close personal friends, he is rather detached and disdainful towards outsiders. He is quite manipulative and somewhat arrogant in his youth. There is no denying that Epsilon is an extremely attractive stallion, breathtakingly beautiful some might even say, and he uses this to his advantage at times, seducing the unwary or corrupt to get what he wants. He has somewhat mercurial personality, and enjoys cultivating fear in those he doesn't like or doesn't know well when he has them alone or at a disadvantage, keeping them off balance as he weaves together a confusing blend of seduction and intimidation.

Despite this tendency, he is not heartless or sadistic, he has rules and morals even if they are intrinsic and somewhat fluid and he would never actually harm someone he considered 'good,' or innocent. Whenever someone is able to pierce his protective shell they would find that he is capable of great love and loyalty, he simply does not give it away lightly or easily.

Name: Pitter Patter
Nickname: PitPat
About: PitPat, as he finds himself being called, is very jovial and makes friends with everything from that tiny pebble there to the songbird in the trees over yonder. He seems to live in his own little world of strange and wondrous adventures, enjoys chatting with the most unusual of objects and creatures, and certainly will never be found with a frown. PitPat greatly enjoys finding homeless objects new homes. Since coming to Underland and finding his calling in trading and delivering items of importance, he's even started up his own little stand, adequately named PitPat's Orphan Objects Corner. So if you feel like adopting one of these poor, homeless items, stop by his stand! You may freely take what you please, leave a trinket behind if you desire, and he'll certainly never say no to a piece of cake and tea!

Name: Lunellis Starfall
About: Lunellis was born blind, tho he has wings their merely for show as he is unable to see therefore is unable to judge landing. He lives with a human and several other stallions [plus one mare who keeps wanting to teach him to swim but lets not go there], but feels. As if he's a burden, he watches the stars, odd due to his blindness but he claims he can "feel their warmth". He is adept at sensing the warmth of others and if allowed to will memorize scents linked to that warmth. He enjoys a good story and listens with rapt attention...

Name: Celeste
About: Celeste has always felt out of place among 'normal' soq as she believes she was born in the stars and fell to the earth. She loves to make charts and maps of the night sky, trying to find her way home. Her true talents lie in her growing and tending of roses, however. Under her guidance, rare blooms in exotic colors grow in abundance. From these blossoms she fashions pieces of living adornments for the herd. Still, from time to time she will become 'star struck' as Orion puts it, and wanders the place they now call home, attempting once more to map the night skies.

Name: Kingston Paradox
About: King has some sociopathic tendencies that tend to make those around him feel rather uncomfortable, although that could also be the fact that his head seems to be floating atop his neck. However, he doesn't have the size to truly threaten anyone yet.
As an adult, he comes across as a cheery sociable stallion who just happens to have a habit of trying to kill people without hesitation or remorse. He does not often succeed but his attempts often scare people half to death anyways. King has dramatic manic aggressive mood swings that often make spending any prolonged time in his company an exercise in self preservation as really anything can set him off, breathing strangely, a hair out of place, an odd tone in your voice. He is not vengeful or sadistic, he will often suddenly attempt to kill his companion for a few minutes, and upon failing, return completely to normal and be able to pick up their conversation from where it left off... That is, if his conversation partner has not fled. The combination of Kingston's rather intimidating appearance and his murderous spontaneity, tends to leave him feeling very lonely. He craves attention, affection, and acceptance but just can't seem to find it without scaring said person away, he just can't understand how other soquili function. He often over shares and appears awkwardly overeager to converse upon meeting someone in an attempt to bond with them before he tries to do them in and they run away. King also constantly smiles in an attempt to reveal how cute and charming he thinks he really is, which is also unhelpful as his teeth, as well as his eyes glow with a disturbing green light that tends to make him look maniacal.

Part Time Member
Name: Caesium Brightshade
Nickname: "Cae"
About: Cae is very strange. Capricious and fickle, he can go from innocently teasing to completely berserk in two seconds flat. Bipolar with ups and downs. He's possessive and predatory, and protective over those he loves, though thus far he's only loyal to family--if the Underland herd becomes family? That's for a future plot. He is in it for fun. For the games, the tricks, the kills. And for the ladies. Six Cheshire sisters, all with matching grins... Grins like his? Yes, please. He does have a good side--he CAN be gentle and even sweet on his good days. The rest of them? Just take him as a giant grey area?

Name: Ace
About: Ace is a friendly, foolish sort of guy. Totally cheerful and never gets down. But that can be a tad bit annoying, as he's friendly to everyone (even the bad guys) and he doesn't seem to have a mental filter. ADHD to the max. A directional idiot, but has a good time along the way. So he gets lost often. He is a knight--and while his skills may seem sub-par (as he's never serious about ANYTHING) he's actually quite good. It just takes a legit life or death situation for him to sober up and get s**t done.

Name: Vorpal "The Frumious Snapper"
About: Vorpal is not evil but he is a naturally dangerous stallion to cross paths with, he is nocturnal, more due to his personality than to any physical objection towards the sun, he simply prefers dark and gloomy places. Vorpal is often childishly cruel although he somehow maintains a strange sort of twisted innocence even in his cruelty. Despite this, he is reasonably intelligent, in a depraved sort of way and enjoys coming across new acquaintances. He is rarely angered and behaves in a warm, friendly, albeit slightly creepy manner towards any soquili he deigns to start a conversation with. Still, be warned, while he may seem kind and genuine one minute, it is entirely possible he will try to lure you into a deadly trap in the next, without losing an inch on his too wide smile.

Vorpal extracts much entertainment by luring unsuspecting soquili and kawani into potentially life threatening situations, or getting them lost in his twisted and nonsensical section of forest. He can be difficult to get to know, evasively cunning in his ability to sidestep questions about himself on a personal level, and more than a little deranged. His advice, when offered, is often cryptic, unhelpful, and vexatious to unravel and he loves twisting other people's words to his own benefit or amusement.

Name: Glimmer Glitch
About: Off in the head and prone to wandering, this peculiar fellow suddenly found himself in Underland. Hard to say when that happened or where he came from before. Glimmer isn't crazy, to him it is everyone else who has gone mad. He has moments where his mind misfires and he glitches. He might think he's somewhere else, or your someone else and occasionally he forgets who he is.
