NPC Characters of Aly

Minor NPCs of various characters!

1.  Using NPCs in Threads

If your character is in the same pack as my characters (and therefore their NPCs), feel free to reference these characters as being seen around the packlands, etc. in your posts. If you'd like actual interaction with these characters, that's cool, but please let me know what you're doing with them via PM. Special notes are added about each of the characters here, as well -- please pay attention to them, and make sure you are adhering to that character's temperament, etc.

4.  Alyssum's Companions

4.1  Macbeth

Origin

Macbeth was born into a flock that was raised to be sold as pets or as food in Europe. As time went on, he kept getting resold because of his cocky attitude, and ended up in Freetown at one point. Alyssum spotted him, and realizing that the bird was intelligent, bought him from the merchant, intending to release him. But, Macbeth refused to leave the woman, since he had insisted that because she rescued him from a life of imprisonment, he had a debt to repay, although it was obvious he regretted his strong sense of honor. But, months passed, and now the two are as close as if attached to the hip.

5.  Harrow's Companion

5.1  Omitl

Description

Omitl is brownish gray throughout, with a tawny-colored face and bright greenish-yellow eyes. Her underbelly is slightly lighter and grayer than her overcoat, which is darker brown. Her paws are dark, with striped markings near where the dark parts fade.

Omitl weighs 22 lbs (9 kg) and is a smaller cat. She is stoutly built, and her dense fur coat makes her appear larger than she actually is. She wears a simple leather collar, adorned with a tag. The tag bears the Hand of Eris symbol.

About

Omitl is very active. She is semi-obedient, following orders in her own time and at her own pace. Although Canada lynx are typically solitary hunters, coordinated attacks have been observed previously. Omitl may sometimes hunt with assistance from Itzcitla, though this is less cooperation than unwittingness on Itzcitla's part, as Omitl simply uses him to scare prey toward her. Omitl is capable of speaking, although her English is rudimentary and thickly accented, as she was never formally educated on Luperci speech. She has a biological brother, Fella, living in Vinátta.

History

• Eris found Omitl in Halifax with Sky Katruk, who took Omitl's brother. The kittens' mother had encountered some kind of accident, and crawled back to her kittens while fatally wounded, dying just beside both kittens. This occurred on 16 November 2011; thereafter, Eris gave the kitten both sheeps' milk and her own milk, as she was still lactating from having fed Enigma Hallow for Bastion and Janos. Eris kept Omitl around herself constantly to acclimate the kitten to the presence of Luperci, and she also kept Itzcitla nearby so the ocelot might teach the lynx something of hunting and catlike behavior.
• Omitl was given to Harrow some months thereafter, and left with her.
