Name:
Anim Igriik
Age:
29
Race:
Eagle type Taalunian.
A Taalunian is a race of beings born with animal characteristics and enhanced senses attributing to the characteristics of the animal they portay. It is believed that eons ago people to the continent prayed to their gods for gifts that would aid them in protecting their lands. Under the power of the moon, ten individuals were granted the power of their totem. Mountain Lion, Bear, Eagle, Wolverine, Salamander, Salmon, Boar, Antelope, Yak, and Floral were the ten gifted powers and modifications to the body of their ancestors. These were the first Taalunians that drove back industrial powers, leaving the natives to live in peace. Eventually, the interbreeding overtook the rest of the natives as the generations passed until all known tribes became of the Taalunian race. They decided to separate when racism between the tribes and types of Taalunian caused bloodshed. The Mountain Lions took to their cat's respective home among the rock, Bears and Wolverine types to the forests. Salmon and Salamander stayed to the river while Boar, Antelope and Yak types took to the plains. Floral and Eagle types coexist in the woods and are the easiest to find, while the Eagle types will stay in their sparse treetops the nomadic Floral types bring life back to the deadest areas that have suffered from war and natural disaster alike.
Weaknesses:
While Taalunians do not see themselves as 'half breeds' and to interbreed with another Taalunian type aside from the one you coexist with in your designated area is taboo to their culture, I will fill this out. Eagle types have the same anatomy as their representative bird, in that they have hollow, very easily breakable bones. In harsh weather conditions they are unable to fly, leaving them very vulnerable. Their feathers are also easily flammable; a big deal when fighting a dragon.
Power:
Eagle-Sight:
The eye sight an every day eagle would typically have; spotting a fish near the surface of a lake from several miles high in the sky is one example.
Archery:
Aided by the eagle-sight, Anim is an excellent archer and has practiced his entire life on perfecting archery. While he does have a dagger for simple hand to hand, it is poor in performance to Anim with a bow and arrow.
History:
Anim was hatched from an egg to two very loving Eagle-type parents and grew up as a normal eagle-type could grow up. Flying lessons, learning how to allow eagles to trust you to let you fly with them, tending to an abandoned egg, etc. When he hit his adolescent stage however, he found himself falling for a Flora type Taalunian who roamed often just beneath his home nest. They spoke often and slowly developed feelings for one another, before his parents found out. While being with a Taalunian not of your type that at least roams in the same area as you is culturally accepted, his parents, whom were particularly racist and did not believe in this cultural allowance, forbid it.
Anim ran away from home with his Flora type girlfriend, Iralla, and into the towns. For years they lived together in secrecy, not letting the public know of their race... until Iralla was found. She and Anim were forcibly taken home and bound to a stake, where the Eagle and Flora types attempted to burn them alive. Anim was able to escape, but just when Anim reached out for Iralla, she wilted in the heat... and died. In a rage, Anim stole away her withered corpse and flew out in a rage. He went to their lagoon in the moonlight, with her body, and laid her at final rest where only fireflies and moonlight would be able to grace her body.
Anim is now working as a vigilante incognito with his wings covered and hood always up. He has taken on bounty's to help pay for his living expenses and wanders aimlessly. He can be found in the tavern often of what town he is visiting, drinking away her memory. Now, however, he has a new assignment... to find the Dragon Princess and bring her in... Dead or Alive.
Personality:
Anim is very cold nowadays unless you truly do something to warm his heart. He hates and blames others for what has happened to him, and suffers from depression. His will to live is on very thin ice, and his sanity is only just so-so. Anim has taken on assassin jobs before, killing in cold blood without remorse. It's just something to pay the bills at this point, as sad as it may seem. He has a deep desire for inner peace yet his mind is still stuck on the day he couldn't save Iralla. He has not flown since gently easing her body into the moonlit lagoon, and mentally blocks out the fact that he can fly. He feels... if he is to fly again... then he is abandoning Irallas memory and leaving her behind. Though this is irrational of course, it is what he thinks.
