Background: Her father Masao is the head of the hunters. He was married at a young age to the love of his life, and five years later they had their first child, a little boy named Bo. Sadly two years later his wife died giving birth to there second child Denna, a little girl. Widowed with two young children, a young midwife by the name Pia came to care for the children. Pia was the midwife who delivered Bo and had always been a caretaker to the family. Five years passed and one night Masao and Pia slept together in a heat of the moment, they love one another but with Masao having been married it was believed his soul was bound to his wife until he died, so marriage was not possible. Nine months later Vivi was born under the first full moon of the new year. Born early, she was a small baby, who looked fragile to the touch, white as snow skin, and big light eyes, the tribes old wise woman commented that Vivi looked like a little ghost. Masao and Pia lived together, she was a mother to Vivi, Denna, and Bo, and unmarried wife to Masao. Growing up was like a little adventure within its self, the canyon, and caves in the mountains being home to many dragons, and magical creatures. The rocky volcanic land always had lizards, and snakes lounging around in the sunshine, and was even home to some rare man eating flowers. Vivi would play in the tropical forest with her siblings, cousins, and the other village children, climbing trees, racing, hunting, and gathering mushrooms. She went swimming in the Lagoon practically every day, and during the summer would go looking for fire bugs, moon stones, and fairy dust with her sister up in the volcano mountains, and forest. During the rainy months she would sit by the fire with her family, and paint, or help her mother with weaving on the loom, as her father sang songs, and told stories, When she was seven her mother got ill, Vivi spent her most of her time beside her mothers bed, pressing flowers, reading, embroidering scraps of fabric, and singing to her mother. Pia's health never got better and she died only a month later from pneumonia. Vivi mourned for her mother, crying alone in her hiding place in the forest was how she spent many weeks, but she came to peace with her mothers passing and the days slowly went back to normal. Vivi and her friends spent many days exploring the forest, and diving for pearls in the ocean. She watched her father and Bo bring home the prized stag and a big feast was held, even as a nine year old she dance the night away with her friends and cousins. Her father nicknamed her Little Bird because she was so small but had the song voice of the birds. Singing was a talent of hers, and she sang at Bo Masha party. Having been born on the night of a full moon she was one of the few villagers with a spirit animal, that granted her abilities. Her Spirit animal was a falcon. When she turned thirteen she starting having a crush on ____. Not that she let him know, it was a one sided thing, and she was only friends with him. She had her Masha ceremony when she was 16, and ended up getting drunk for the first time off wine, but over all it was a fun night, in the morning she made a vow to never drink again having one of the worst headaches ever. As of late the village oracle has proclaimed in a cryptic riddle way that basically "A huge boat caring many dead and only a handful of living will come to the north shores, and bring with them change to the island. Good or bad depends on the future paths." Vivi and her good friend ___ have been climbing the trees to the top, to spot the far off north shores, but to no avil seeing as the mountains are in the way. The village on the south shores, the chief is still talking with the elders and advisers about what to do. Weather to send people to the north shore to great the visitors, or let them stay on the north shore with knowledge of the tribes location. The scouts sent up the mountains have not signaled that anyone has yet arrived. Vivi hopes to meet these new arrivals, even after hearing the warning that they could be violent barbarians, carnivores, or something terrible like wondering spirits of the dead.
