Character Directory

Contact me here, via character bios, via Skype or email (both at ), or Discord (siellby#9733).
note: Please tell me who you are if you add me on Skype or email me! I won't accept if I don't know who you are.

NOTE: I'm having trouble remembering who's who, who is participating or not, and who plays what role. Please bear with me if I make mistakes. Also I may end up checking the map often, so if my character suddenly stops moving that might be why.

Shikoba

[picto] | [bio]

Wins
• name: 0

Losses
• Jörnburnd: 1 (I think???)

Draws
• name: 0

behavior
• Just a note that this character hasn't been developed much, so his behavior is subject to change.
• He is interested in breeding (although the player is not interested in having fawns, also would rather not RP the NSFW stuff). Ladies only.
• Mixes mating habits of pronghorns and prairie chickens. Lots of dancing, poofing, and strutting.
• Will attempt to lure judges to him, and will only fight if challenged directly.
• Mostly instinct-driven.
• Characters will be treated based on appearance. No antlers (or possibly small antlers) and doesn't look like a predator will be considered female and treated as a judge. Antlers and doesn't look like a predator will be considered male and treated as a challenger/competitor. Looks like a predator will be treated as a predator--Shikoba will either flee or attempt to chase them off. Looks like none of those will probably be ignored. (Let me know if you prefer to have your character treated according to their role instead).

fighting
examples:
•prairie chicken display
•pronghorns fighting
•pronghorn herding
•prairie chickens fighting

• Mostly uses his horns to try to push back an opponent, but will sometimes rear and attack with his front hooves. May switch tactics depending on the opponent, but he prefers locking horns/antlers.

Advantages: speed (can run up to 55 mph), youth/fitness, agility, stamina, average size and strength
Disadvantages: overconfidence, lack of experience, size and strength can be a disadvantage against larger or stronger opponents

Amary

[picto] | [bio]

behavior
• Just interested in being social and making friends.
• May be treated as a judge and herded, though she will not actually be judging anyone and won't necessarily stick with a herd. If friends are around, she'll probably just go wherever they are. Otherwise she'll just do her own thing.
• Because of her antlers, she could be mistaken as a challenger, however she has no interest in sparring and will turn down any requests to do so.

[Note]: For the sake of fairness, Amary's healing abilities will not work on rut participants for the duration of the event.

Aileana

[picto] | [bio]

Wins
• name: 0

Losses
• name: 0

Draws
• name: 0

behavior
• Just here for fun, sees it all as a big game.
• doesn't care about herds, just wants to spar, even if there's no herd at stake
• Not interested in breeding (and can't, anyway)
• Can be treated like a judge, just know she won't actually be judging, and may not take kindly to "dominant" behavior (or more likely to see it as a challenge).

fighting
Advantages: speed, agility, cunning, stamina, balance
Disadvantages: size (can be used to advantage), strength, tendency towards stubbornness and recklessness, unable to use her powers during the rut

Tactics/Style
• Fights like a goat. Headbutting is her main attack method. Combined with rearing against larger opponents. But she uses her hooves more than a goat does.
• Fakes running away, then charges back.
• Attempts to get her opponent to lower their guard by: feigning fear, feigning injury (limping, slowing down, "sad" emote), feigning defeat (lying down during a spar), letting her opponent underestimate her due to her size.
• Tries to attack from behind when possible.

• Note: Aileana is much stronger than she looks. Despite her size, her strength is similar to a buck of average size (ordinarily has supernatural strength, but dampened down for the event). However, she still relies on speed and trickery as her greatest assets.
