Going to type this all out right now while I remember it!
New Characters-
1. Female
20s
Slender build
Family: panda
Relation: neice (of male, #2)
Fighting style: stealth; bad with grappleing and hand to hand combat due to lower physical strength, strong at avoiding detection, strategy, and usually goes for a point of instant kill when against an enemy.
Home: underground city-state A
Status: political leader of city-state A, referred to as "queen" by the people due to her efforts to present a strong and elegant outward appearance to her people.
History: family history, original home, and rank are all hazy to her at this time.
2. Male
50
6ft, obese
Family: panda
Relation: uncle (of female, #1)
Fighting style: throwing his weight to add force to otherwise weak attacks; and using opponents momentum against them, because the technique requires little stamina; all of this is mainly effective for defending. His strength lies in his political prowess.
Home: underground city-state A
Status: political leader of city-state A
History: family history, original home, and rank are all unknown
3. Male
30
Short, thicker build
Family: cat
Relation: 2nd cousin to the eldest cat prince
Home: no stable home; travels, mainly in the various city-states
4. Female(?)
Age unknown (told to be 600)
Has 6 functioning heads
Serves as the deity to the snake family & their gang
Legend: every 100 years it dies laying a single egg (without the need of male fertilization), the egg takes as many weeks to hatch as number of heads (so in this case 6 weeks), the newly hatched snake has 1 more head than the one that layed it (the heads do not arrange in any particular order, they are not pretty, more like mutations but fully functioning), and so it continues through time.
The snake family believes it to be their deity rebirthing itself.
If you present the snake with a head of a rat it will hiss out a unique melody for you (this is considered a blessing; but is also what started the feud with the rat family because it would hiss a tune for a head of a rat family member as well).
Acquiring a multitude of blessings improves ones status within the snake family.
"Mr. Hiss Hiss" is the nickname the fox prince uses for the snake.
Character Updates-
Fox Prince
Home: temporarily living in city-state B
Shirks his responsibility of leading his own country
Fighting style: unknown, has avoided situations requiring such effort
Spends time as a "bard", writing songs, enjoying music, making light of everything, generally pissing people of with his snarky lyrics.
Jovial, fun, world-loving outward appearance; in truth a hidden terribly selfish bastard (personality wise. Not lineage).
He is very fond of female (#1), wants her for himself, terribly mean to her when she ignores his advances (at this point she thinks its a joke because he is so forward).
His self-proclaimed best friend is Mr. Hiss Hiss (snake gang deity). He spends all his time killing rats to get the snake to "sing" for him, and he often likes to sing a long or make up words to the snakes melody.
New Locations-
1. Underground city-states
• number not yet decided, but there will be many
• allied with each other
• interconnected system of travel between city-states (no above ground travel needed)
• black market like; home to the two rat and snake rival gangs; crippled & forgotten of the upper world
• existence a strict secret from upper nations (for fear of political invasion due to the upper world's war, both factions could use the numbers the underground could provide)
• above ground travel and immigration regulated
• culture is considered that of the old world compared to the technological advancement above
• underground known as old legend/ghost story to the upper kingdoms (these myths are starting to become scarcely told now)
-city-state A
• home of female (#1), male (#2)
• closest to raccoon nation
• political succession is not inherited, but is based on power and influence (the final test for leadership is getting the gangs to work together)
-city-state B
• home (temporary): fox prince, male (#3)
• headquarters of snake gang; temple to their living snake "deity"
• closest to the location of the rabbit family
