"There is no trail that they follow,
No path that can be seen,
There they travel, horse and rider,
Upon the endless blowing green. "


Appearance


Merevaika has been through so much. Her body has been battered and bruised many times; her mind left scarred by events she's been through. She is still the same woman, but isn't all the same. All those years have only made her rougher, not smoother, wilderness ingrained in her from the time she is free in it.

The wild makes her beautiful. Her arms and legs are well defined, muscular but still slender. On her worse days, the muscles give way to skinniness, unavoidable in the environment she lives in. But the woman needs strength to survive, toned from riding and archery that is essential. Pride runs deep in the Drykas, Merevaika holding her head high and standing tall, taller than most. She moves with the fluidity of wild animal, but a careful could notice the limps and the strained arm movements caused by recent injury.

Her hair once bore the weight of the past, but everything is gone now. Cut with deliberate meaning, not for appearance, it is scraggly, windswept, unbrushed. A few waves remain of the long locks, now falling to her shoulders. It is almost always left loose to fly in the wind - to see it tied back suggests that something unusual is at play. Behind the hair are angry features, tightened from a softer past. Her chin is well defined, her cheekbones clear and her cheeks hollower. Scars lightly trace her skin, scrapes too, showing that not everything is perfect.

The most stunning and memorable features are her eyes. Piercing green, they are always watching. Some have said they stare into their soul, others say they seem to see everything. The colour is strong, rippled with all the shades of grass and her home. She seems to never blink, except when she does, never closing her eyes to miss something. Yet the green eyes are nothing compared to the contrast of red sunbursts, glowing red as blood. They spiral out from her irises, unmissable. If one were to ask, however, she would simply stare them down until they decided to forget the question, or learn the hard way.

Her clothes are dark and practical, made for hunting, riding and staying unseen. Dresses are unusual to find in her wardrobe, as are clothes made from fine materials or finely embroidered. During the winter and colder days, she nearly always wears a cloak to cover herself, but in the summer season she is more likely to be found in leather leggings and a sleeveless shirt, showing off her windmarks. Image Tattooed upon her left shoulder is the image of a horse, Eryunt, and her dog, Denviel. This was done on her bonding to Eryunt, her strider. It no longer holds the same pride for her as she is now on the outside, but reminds her of her heritage and her home. To her, it is now less of a mark of the culture but of the strider.

Another marking on her skin is the tattoo hidden from sight, golden antlers on her thigh. They enable the transformation from human to elk. In that form, she looks like an ordinary elk - a copper brown colour with darker fur on her neck. She is slightly larger than the average elk. Her eyes, now more brown, still have the strange red sunbursts. On her thigh, the antlers remained, only faded, a more tarnished gold that is only noticed in sunlight.

Before 89th Winter 515 :
Merevaika is a tall and proud Drykas, always holding her head high with good posture and grace. Her limbs are quite muscular, toned from riding and archery, but still retain a slender feel, her height complementing them. Tanned from long days outdoors, she holds a wild look and her fluid movements add to this, moving as if she was part of nature.

Her hair falls in long brown waves, never cut. It is littered with little braids and silken ribbon, ending in charms and beads. Some might say she had too many wraps for her age, but she has witnessed too much death in her years. There is a bright red bead for her mother, her brother's first tooth carved into a teardrop and the feather from her father's hunting eagle, the three that she misses the most.

Merevaika's eyes are a piercing green, staring out from a soft round face. Some call them curious, but more say that they give her an essence of slyness. She holds an almost wise look, mixed with the wildness. The combination of grace, softness and wild are all clear.



Concept


Merevaika feels wild and free, letting her feelings and spur of the moment ideas rule her life. Although often compared as reckless, Merevaika has found herself maturing, the hardships and carefreeness starting to work out badly. She understands the concept of family, realising its worth, but the Drykas still prefers doing her own thing, not wanting responsibility of others. She lives her life without depending on anyone but herself and her animals, but every now and then Merevaika wishes she did have someone to rely on. She has no respect for law and order, so several methods she uses to acquire things aren't too legal, sometimes resulting in bad consequences. Still, this hasn't deterred her.

Merevaika has spent several years living alone, with only the most necessary human contact in order to survive. She is awkward in social situations, seeing them as pointless unless she gets something out, and so Merevaika spends her cunning on thinking up ways to exploit acquaintances. Despite this, Merevaika has recently grown out of her shell, realising the benefit of a friend she doesn't exploit the minute she meets.


History


Merevaika was the first child of her father's second wife, and one of the oldest. She was often remarked as being the most similar to her father, and he often spoiled her, trying to teach her the way to survive.

The pavillion was doing well, the Ankal having two wives and many children. However, one winter a terrible flu got the pavillion, and there were no skilled enough healers. Help was sent out, but the messengers killed by glassbeaks. Only four remained: Merevaika, her older half sister, her father's first wife and her infant son. The latter two returned to the wife's previous pavillion, but her half sister stayed with Merevaika until she met a man to marry.

Merevaika decided that she would stay in Endrykas, and live her life alone, something she always wanted to do. She then settled into her place as a traveller and thief. At times, she longs for the familiarity of family, but then she remembers how free it is without them. She travels with the city, and occasionally with other traders or travellers, who want her help crossing the Sea of Grass. She can list an ally and an enemy in anywhere in Cyphrus, with a history of pickpocketing and of helping those in need.

Merevaika

Postby Merevaika on September 23rd, 2015, 7:05 pm

Animals


 
Eryunt
Image
Name: Eryunt
Gender: Male
Age and Date of Birth: 8 years old, 77th Winter 507
Breed: Cyphrus Strider
Other:
Eryunt is Merevaika's strider. He means the world to her, and if anything happened to him, Merevaika would never forgive herself. They bonded when they were both young, and have never left each others side since.

Eryunt is a strong, noble horse, who looks out for Merevaika. He acts almost as a fatherly figure, protecting Merevaika, comforting her. Despite this, Eryunt can also be a bit of a troublemaker, sneaking off, stealing food and occasionally refusing to ride. He never, however, does this in anyway but playfully.

Eryunt is very strict on who rides him and to some extent, touches him. If a stranger approaches him in anyway but a gentle one, Eryunt has a habit to kick, after his warning snorts.



[tabset=200]
 
Denviel
Image
Name: Denviel
Gender: Male
Age and Date of Birth: 5 years, 12th Fall 510
Breed: Luvanor Grassland Hunter
Other: Image Denviel is the son of Merevaika's father's hunting dog, and was always intended to belong to Merevaika so she would have a dog to hunt with too. Denviel is a hardworking, sensible dog, who knows his place in a hunt and in the camp. He often aids her with her hunting, either chasing down smaller animals, helping to track them, or distracting and guiding them towards Merevaika.


[tabset=200]
 
Puppies
Image
Name: Mika
Gender: Male
Age and Date of Birth: 1 season, 50th Spring 515
Breed: Luvanor Grassland Hunter
Other: Mika is the oldest of the three, and has taken the role as the bravest and most adventurous. He can be constantly seen running away and deciding not to follow orders, hiding and exploring. Although he isn't old enough to hunt yet, Merevaika sees potential in him become a good chasers, already catching rats and rabbits that stumble near.

Name: Freya
Gender: Female
Age and Date of Birth:1 season, 50th Spring 515
Breed: Luvanor Grassland Hunter
Other: Freya is also mischievous, but more deliberately than Mika who just wants to explore. She deliberately chews on anything she finds, as well as burying anything she can get a hold of. Her sense of smell is phenomenal, and she has a bright future as a tracker.

Name: Grey
Gender: Male
Age and Date of Birth:1 season, 50th Spring 515
Breed: Luvanor Grassland Hunter
Other: Grey is quiet, sensible and extremely unlike his siblings. He works hard and follows every order to the best of his ability. Although he doesn't have a specific talent like his siblings, Grey makes up for it for effort and obedience.



 
Tachi
Image
Name: Tachi
Gender: Female
Age and Date of Birth: 4 years, unknown 511
Breed: Strider
Other: A young, Strider mare with a wild personality. Scared of ropes, dogs, men, and anything raised above eye level. She is prone to biting and bucking. Purchased at the Auction Fall 515, with a cracked left, front hoof.

Tachi bonded with Kyo during the Winter of 515, and was with him when he disappeared into the Sea of Grass.


 
Meda
Image
Name: Meda
Gender: Female
Age and Date of Birth: 2 seasons, unknown Spring 515
Breed: Colour Splash
Other: A sweet, young filly with a great personality. She is energetic, joyful, and loves to run. Will take a lot of training and should grow into a fine driving horse. Not really suited to riding, but could be mastered by an expert. Purchased at the Auction Fall 515


 
Beast
Image
Name: Beast
Gender: Female
Age and Date of Birth: 4 years old, 74th Summer 514
Breed: Bozderon Shadow Dog
Other: Competent level pathfinding
Beast was once a wild dog, in a pack that held the magic of pathfinding. They had been initiated into the magic as pups, but the man who did so soon disappeared, found dead years later. Lost in the Sea of Grass, their magic went unnoticed and never discovered. However, on her third summer, a young Drykas hunter found them, eager to domesticate the pack that were once pets and companions to the humans.

She was trained to become a guard dog, but the Drykas never discovered the magic, or if he did, never managed to get Beast to like him enough for her to initiate him. Eventually, the dog was abandoned after her violent ways and managed to get washed up into the Hymnal Caverns. She was pushed to a small section of the caves, trapped there by rocks that followed after her. Only a small channel led to her imprisonment, with which she survived on the strange creatures that swam through, catching the fish as best as she could. She grew thinner and weaker, unable to find a way out. When Merevaika was washed in, the woman helped the dog, gaining her trust. The dog eventually initiated Merevaika and the two made a rough way out, both injured, starved and exhausted.

Beast is a wild dog, with very little trust towards any human. After emerging from the cave, she no longer had the need for Merevaika's help and was less pleasant towards her, warning not to come near. Despite this, the two have formed a connection, loyal to the other, and Merevaika plans to teach Beast to become more obedient.


Relationships



 
Shahar
Image
Race:Human, drykas
Date of Birth: 23rd Fall, 492
Relationship: Friend

Merevaika first met Shahar when out hunting, and the two joined up to bring down an oryx. She views him as an experienced hunter, and respects him for that. She is a little jealous of his skills and the fact that he has a pavilion, but views him as an ally. The two also fought against slavers, where he gained more of her trust when he helped save her life.


 
Khida
Image
Race:Kelvic
Date of Birth: 13 Spring, 510
Relationship: Stranger

Merevaika doesn't know Khida very well. She met her when the kelvic had fallen off her horse, and never really held much regard to the person who was so unconnected with the strider she had been riding. The two also competed archery together, but nothing specifically stood out about her, not to Merevaika.


 
Seirei
Image
Race: Human
Date of Birth: 89 Winter 499
Relationship: Stranger
As a captive, Merevaika doesn't respect Seirei as she should, believing herself superior. When she last saw the girl, she was pregnant, and Merevaika wouldn't recognize her without the familiar features of a pregnant woman. She knows little about her, and has no interest to learn more.
After Merevaika tried to steal from the girl, she fears that Seirei knows too much about her nature. She will avoid her whenever possible, fearing that Seirei will get her in trouble with the law if she recognised the one that stole from her


 
Kei
Image
Race: Kelvic
Date of Birth: 4 Spring 514
Relationship:Frenemy
Kei and Merevaika first meeting was an argument between the two, and neither have exactly warmed up to the other. However, the two still shared a tent during Merevaika's stay in Riverfall, a chaotic time of conflict. Still, Merevaika relies on him occasionally on what he gets for hunts, and even though she wouldn't admit it, she enjoys the company.


 
Zephari
Image
Race: Human, Benshira
Date of Birth: 8 Summer 482
Relationship: Friends
When Merevaika thinks of Zephari, the memories of the horse and of the crystal skulls always fills her mind, their meeting rather exceptional. The two later found themselves planning to go to Endrykas, and made the journey together. Merevaika finds that she can trust her, as the woman has similar feelings as she does.


 
Kyo
Image
Race: Kelvic
Date of Birth: 3 Spring 509
Relationship: Acquaintance
Another Kelvic that Merevaika has a rocky relationship with. She has met with him once, where she attacked him for his profession, not believing that wild animals should be captured.


 
Dravite
Image
Race: Drykas
Date of Birth: 15 Spring 493
Relationship: Enemy
Merevaika does not like Dravite. He was in charge of the group of Watchmen that stopped her entering Endrykas, and forced her to remain camped outside the city for an extra night. He also threw her off her horse and separated the two. The woman finds him uncivil and not worthy to be member of the Watch, and if given the chance, would go out of her way to make things unpleasant for him.


 
Lian
Image
Race: Drykas
Date of Birth: 67 Spring 492
Relationship: Acquaintance
While Lian was part of the group of Watchmen that delayed her entry into Endrykas, she doesn't have too many bad feelings towards him. He acted a lot more apologetic and respectable than Dravite, so she regards him with more respect. As he was just following orders, she doesn't exactly hate him, but doesn't have friendly feelings towards him either.


 
Rufio
Image
Race: Drykas
Date of Birth: 32 winter 495
Relationship: Best friend
Rufio and Merevaika are old friends and she is the only person the Drykas opens up to. With the girl, Merevaika appears to be a different person: friendly, joking and truly opened up. She wishes to maintain this relationship, strangely just because she likes Rufio, with no other thoughts in mind.


 
Azmere
Image
Race: Drykas
Date of Birth: 19th of Spring, 486
Relationship: Ally
The two started on the wrong foot, but soon joined to hunt a pack of wolves, bringing their relationship closer. Merevaika has somewhat respect for the man, as well as finding him rather attractive. She is curious both about his scars and the starbursts of colour in his eyes but not enough to question it.

Postby Merevaika on September 23rd, 2015, 7:05 pm

Special



Image
Thread Gained: A Pair of Gilded Antlers

Date Gained: 19th Summer 515

Important Details: Allows her to take the form of an elk at will.

Description: Merevaika was faced with a series of events which involved her transformation to an elk and travelling through a door to an alternate world where she was faced with the task of protecting son of Alcor, the son of Caiyha from a horde of hunters. Where the arrow that was meant to to kill the elk hit her formed a tattoo, the mark of the stag. The golden antlers resemble the ones she found at the gates of Riverfall that day, and allow her to assume the form of an elk at will.


Image
Thread Gained: Benshira Jones and the Crystal Skulls

Date Gained: 45th Summer 515

Important Details: The memories of the life of a Strider

Description: Upon touching the crystal skull of a strider, Merevaika gained Venthris' memories. The mare was carefree and silly, until she was taken away from her herd and forced to work as a farm animal. She fought and fought, until she finally ended with a kind Drykas. Merevaika experienced all her emotions and feelings, until all the memories were burned in the back of her mind, to remain there permanently.
spoiler :
"Merevaika is sent into a whirlwind of sensory overload. The colors are bled out, some colors entirely missing. The images twisting around in the drykas' head are not what stand out the most, but instead the sounds, and smells are the most vibrant. The smell of grass becomes the most apparent first, the smell of fresh grass pervades the majority of the scenes. The smell of horses and the feel of their fur against Merevaika's shoulder was another thing that came across very strongly.

As the whirlwind of information slowed down, Merevaika's perspective changed, from viewing the horse from an almost observer type of view, to seeing and feeling each thing as the horse it's self. She could feel the impact on her hooves as she ran across the sea of grass pursuing her herd. She could feel the wind tugging at her mane as she ran around as a foal for the first time. She could feel the adrenaline as she ran from a pack of wolves as a young filly.

This horse was a mare in a herd of about fifteen, that tended to roam around southern around the southern end of the sea of grass, moving from one watering hole to the next for most of her life. She was one of the most carefree and silly of the herd, often being at odds with the older stallions or mares. Then emotions started to bleed into the scenes, like love and embarrassment when it was the horse's mother, or irritation at her father. These were no normal feelings for an animal, this horse was a strider. Her name was Venthris. One of the strangest feelings was that of the connection to the web. It was much deeper than that of Merevaika's connection. It was something at the very heart of Venthris' being that was constantly there, but not something she ever really noticed, it just being something that always was.

At the age of six, her herd was captured by a group of humans, and she was taken from her family, being forced to serve as a work animal for a farmer. The anger and sadness surrounding the first scenes after being take were blinding, causing Merevaika to feel the same pain Venthris did. The emotions were not complicated like those of a human, but they were just as strong, if not stronger than those Merevaika was able to feel.

Even though she had been taken from her herd, she never gave up, always fighting against her owners, which often ended with her receiving a lashing from whoever her current owner was. Because of this she moved from owner to owner until she was almost eight years old. Her final owner was a drykas woman who owned several other horses. She was very nice, never hitting the mare, and only ever fed her long sweet grass or apples. From that point she was starting to grow old, but she was happy with her owner, the seasons began to bleed together, eventually leading into nothing but blur, and then blackness. Merevaika had just witnessed the entire life of a strider name Venthris. And the story of her entire life was now burned into the memory of the drykas woman, as if they were her own memories.

The whirlwind had now calmed to a slow rolling, as each memory slotted its self into place in Merevaika's head, sort of next to her own memories. Her consciousness floated back to reality, her eyes opening to see the horse's skeleton completely gone, her hand raised, floating above where the skull used to be."



Image
Thread Gained: Caiyha's Tears

Date Gained: 61st Fall 515

Important Details: A vision from the goddess Caiyha

Description: "For Merevaika there too came a vision of a lone, black wolf joining a group of her kind with head lowered and tail tucked. The grey wolves stood in a half circle with teeth bared and hackles high. The black wolf rolled submissively and the air, once electric with static that seemed to crack, seemed to calm as the pack jumped in on the loner and together they played and frolicked in the tall grass; a message of unison and acceptance conveyed. "


Image
Thread Gained: Beasts In the Caves of Semele

Date Gained: 89th Winter 515

Important Details: Pathfinding

Description: Merevaika was swept off the cliffs into the Hymnal Caverns, where she met Beast, a pathfinding shadow dog. Realising that Merevaika was her only way out of the caves, the dog initiated Merevaika into pathfinding, letting her see djed trails through the lost magic.



Image
Thread Gained: The World That You Know

Date Gained: 58th Spring 516

Important Details: Cloak that hides scents

Description: A hooded cloak of various bird feathers that are all dyed black and shades of deep grey with splashes of color that show through. It's large enough to cover her entire body and if she wears it as a complete cover it will eliminate her scent. It's not a masking deal where one scent replaces the smell of a human but completely eradicates any smells coming from the woman. This means no animal could smell her approach such as the targets of her hunts or a guard dog.
