Character: Sehhff'hhihhnei'ithhhssshweihh ("Ith")
Series: Feline Wizards
Character Age: around the tail end of latency, so somewhere in mid- to late adolescence for his species.
Canon: Spoilers for the first book of Feline Wizards throughout both canon and app!
Millions of years ago, when dinosaurs roamed the earth... well, dinosaurs roamed the earth. And then shit happened, bad choices were made, and fiery meteoric apocalypse rained down on them all as a consequence of their arrogance and stupidity. But some of the dinosaurs escaped, retreating just a few alternate universes over into a paradisaical world known as "Old Downside"... where they holed themselves up in dark caves and survived the next few aeons on nothing but enforced cannibalism and a theocratic dictatorship courtesy of the demiurgic Power that invented death and evil. Brilliant plan, right?
Ith, a red, tyrannosaur-esque saurian six to ten feet tall at the shoulder (canon varies), is a descendant of these dinosaurs. He is also their first wizard, whose initial breakthrough act as a wizard--his Ordeal--was to pull his people out of that darkness and lead them into a new era of peace and prosperity. The Ith we meet in the second book, past his Ordeal, has developed into a genteel, oddly grave saurian, but with a playful sense of humor and a particular taste for pastrami, both acquired courtesy of his association with one oracular feline wizard by the name of Arhu, with whom Ith shared a joint-Ordeal. When the two are together, Arhu and Ith act as foils to one another, Ith's mellow deliberateness a compliment to Arhu's impetuous volatility.
Sample Post:
If you would excuse me, good sir--I wonder if you've seen a young feline around recently? I seem to have lost track of my associate somewhere along the way. He is black and white of pelt, and either the size of a small housecat or that of a large lion; I am uncertain as to which is true in this world, at this moment.
A box? No, I do not believe that Arhu would be hiding in a box. Why do you ask? Goodness--no, he would not be dead, either; I believe I would know it immediately if he were. Ah, so you have not seen him? No matter, I am sure we shall find each other soon enough. We are, after all, here on the same errand, perhaps in more ways than one. The best course of action, then, may be to seek out our common goal, for it is inevitable that we shall reconvene in the pursuit of it.
Thus, if I may trouble you further--have you, perhaps, seen or heard of a particular specimen of my own kind who goes by the name of Barnhiiih'shaasssss'ishiiiiiiihh? He is described as somewhat small for our kind, and your eyes would perceive his hide as purple, with a green underbelly. I have it on some authority that he perpetuates a program designed to rob the children of this world of their intelligence and free will, but which is disguised as a harmless thelhii-fhishaahhn show--a most villainous creature indeed, this one, and a relic of the darker times of my people. It is our belief that he instigated this camp some three years ago, under the alias of "the Director", in order to initiate the next phase of his dastardly plan. We are, I admit, still uncertain in regards to the precise details of this plan; however, he brings harm upon the young and the innocent in his machinations, and it is quite clear that he operates under the influence of a darker, more sinister Power.
Still no? Ah, apologies for taking your time, then. I thank you for lending me your ear, sir, you have been quite--oh dear, I did not mean for you to give it to me. Would you like for me to reattach that for you?
