Decended

[KC11]

Setting: C4
Starting Time: A rainy night
Story: From the C1 ages, creatures have evolved throughout the game. Banana norns became hebe norns, which then became Alba, which then became spotted, which then became civit, and which now is called the fleetfoot. Many other creatures evolved in a similar pattern, and have now reached C4.

However, an incident with a hand's world in an advanced C1 albia resulted in many norns running away to different worlds in the interent. One norn was a decendent of Chris the Hand norn. She ran off to the computer where the norns evolved through the games.

After a bit of breeding, C4 is here. The creatures still do not have such extream hand emotion, but they do have some amount of compassion. Only one decendent of Chris still lives on this PC. Can she survive in the world of Circtarious?

This story is about the last decendent of Chris, and the interesting C4 world (Or Circtarious as the creatures call it). Not only does a line need to be preserved, but the darkness lands are growing larger (see map).

All those skin colored dots on the map represent areas where some form of civilization has been established, other than the main civilization area.

The reason no civilizations are shown in the darkness area is because no one can go there to find out, because no one come back from searching....

The designated areas for the creatures are:

Norn: Civilization, Safe Forest
Grendel: Grendel Forest (grendels are descriminated against, so they are not allowed to often in the civilization)
Ettin: Death Desert, Civilization
Geat: Geat Island (sometimes seen on the mainland, but not often)

Aquatic creatures live in the Shee Sea, Ice creatures live in the Artic, and no one knows what lives in the Darkness lands...

My character is the last decendent of Chris. (note: I may chose to add a second decedent)

Name: Sara
Species: Norn
Breed: Feline (a breed taken off of the bengels, but now the general shape of the bengel gets different fur patterns depending on the sub breed)
Sub Breed: Tiger/lion (she has the bengel stripes, but her general color is of a light orange/yellow)
Gender: Female
Age: Adolesent
Notes: An orphan, she travels the Safe Forest and Civilization, looking for a family to take her in, but doging social workers, because she knows what happens to children that aren't taken in by a certain date....

A norn wearing a clock ran across the good forest, not relizeing she had gone into the Grendel Jungle. She ran until she found a castle, and she knocked on the door.

[Nasari]

Name: Axlatl (Goes by Axa)
Species: Norn
Breed: Dragon (descended from the Draconians, now has many, many sub-breeds)
Sub-breed: Quetzal (feathery rather than scaly, very colorful, venomous bite)
Gender: Female
Age: Adolescent
Notes: She has a frill of aqua-colored feathers on the back of her head. The rest of her feathers are jet black. Her tail has a fan of white feathers at the end. She was enslaved by the Grendels to be a dancer when she was around eight years old. The Grendels treat her like a pet, naming her Shadow.

"Hey! Shadow! Get the door, brat!" a Grendel slavemaster called.

A feathered girl in very skimpy clothing opened the door, and saw the Norn. Wondering what she could be doing here, she spoke.

"Who are you? I suggest you leave before you join me as a slave."

[KC11]

"You are a slave?" asked Sara. She felt sad now. Oh, how she hated her emotions. They always made her so.... different. She suspected that was why she was left on the streets.

"Who is your owner?" she said, trying to maintain a straight voice.

[Nasari]

"Yes, I am a slave, and my owners are just about everyone living here aside from other slaves. You could say I'm more like an exotic pet. I sure am treated like one."

Pointing to her neck, Axa indicated a blue leather collar saying "Shadow" in light green letters.

"And one more thing: I have to sleep in a dog bed. Get out of here while you can, before you end up like me."

[KC11]

Sara turned, but then stopped. She turned around and said "Why don't you just... run away? In fact, you could run away now! The door is open, and I don't see any creatures around, so why not?"

[Nasari]

"Before I do that, can you help me take this collar off? It has a sort of tracker in it, and I can't do it because it'll shock me."

Axa pointed to a buckle on the back of the collar.

[KC11]

Carefully, Sara unhooked the clasp of the collar. She looked through the door, checking to make sure whatever owned this creature wasn't coming.

[alakin1]

Name: Jael.
Species: Norn.
Breed: Cosmos (Descended from Astro norns but the markings on their fur now depend on what sub-breed they are and no longer change.).
Sub-breed: Moon.
Gender: Male.
Age: Adolescent.
Looks: Jael has the looks of a normal, blue Astro (Cosmos) Norn, albeit he only has white moon markings on his fur, due to his sub-breed.
Notes: Jael was caught by Grendel slavers when he was ten. Despite slavery he is a happy-go-lucky and almost always happy Norn. He is fond of jokes and finds random things hilarious. He has a fear of extremely bright lights and feel most comfortable in the dark, especially in the night and the moonlight.

Jael hummed silently as he left the kitchens with a plate of some kind of...meat for his owners. He noticed someone had left the door open,
~If the masters see that we're all good for a beating.~he though grimly. Then he noticed two Norns, one seemed to be removing the damned collar off the other one. Grinning, he approached them and rumbled, in his most Grendel-like voice,
"What do ya think ya doing, scum?"

[Somefreakoverthere]

Name: Taliya
Species: Norn
Breed: Dragon/ Grendel
Sub Breed: Spike ((Spikes on their heads insted of hair, reasonably colourful, spikes on their shoulders & wrists, claws and sharp fangs.))
Gender: Female
Age: Adolesent
Notes: Taliya's mother was raped by a grendel, and died during childbirth. Taliya is a strong slave and is sometimes treated like a low-ranking grendel due to her parentage, but this happens rarely and normaly only when somebody is out to impress visiting grendels. Her scales are a turquiose colour, her headspikes a dark, vibrant blue and her eyes red like her fathers.
---------------------------------------------
"Whatcha doin'?"

Taliya asked, carefuly approching. Two, no, three orns were nere the door. She glanced around, and broke into a sprint towards them.

"You guys have to get me out of here! Tonight is a big ball, and quite a few powerful grendels are gonna be there. I don't wanna be trapped here as some sort of way for this lot to impress!"

Taliya had a reason to be scared. When she was pulled out to let other grendels be entertained by her, they'd normal cut her headspikes and pull scales off her; both of which were painful for her.

She hissed as she reached them.

[KC11]

Sara yelped when the grendel voice came to her, but when she saw it was just another norn, she wacked that norn on the head and turned to the one that just ran up. "Looks like there are several I have to free."

[alakin1]

Jael rubbed his head where Sara had hit it,
"Aww, come on, it was just a joke! Anyway what's this about freeing people?"

[Somefreakoverthere]

"My tracker thing is on one of the scales on the back of my neck. I ned to get out of here. I don't care if you have to pull out a scale if it means I cane get out of here. Just help me!"

Taliya nearly shouted the last bit, but remembered in time who was about and what they'd do to her if she was caught trying to escape.

"Just help me get out of here before the party tonight. I don't want to end up like my mother."

She added as she remembered what an old grendel nurse/healer had told her when she'd been treating a infection from where too many of the girls scales had been pulled out in one area. From the old midwife she'd learnt all about her mother's treatment.

[alakin1]

"While you're at it could you free me too?" asked Jael, showing Sara the collar around his neck, "And it might be best to hurry, before any of the masters notice we've disappeared."

[Somefreakoverthere]

"Hold still!"

Taliya pulled the collar slightly aay from his neck before she attacked it with her teeth. It tore and broke almost instantly. She smiled grimly as she pulled it off and threw it away towards a door.

"Now get mine off, or else they'll figur out what's going on. We need to get a move on, trust me!"

[KC11]

Sara was tearing collars off at a fast rate. She accidentally tore a scale off one norn in the process, apologiesed, then continued until all the collars were in her hand.

Then, she heard something. A loud stomping in the hallway behind the norns.

"RUN!" she yelled.
