Zaiat's World

Name: Convoy
Nicknames: Train, Short Stuff <----- hates this one.

Sex: Male

Age: 27 yrs

Race: Myrian ( Giant African Millipede )

Home: Nomad; originally from Oreoge Jungle.

Appearance: Long black body with reddish brown joints and a deep red underbelly. Since Convoy is a Millipede his body (mostly his back) is segmented. Part of his chest and face is white since Millipede's are nocturnal. His eyes are actually violet when in the light but in darker places they are pitch black. This antenna are curled back and his head is usually down slightly because of his exoskeleton. Most of his body is located close to the ground so his hight comes from his torso. Convoy is able to stretch up farther, thus becoming taller, but only when unloaded and dealing with larger patrons. Note: All of his personal effects are in his backpack and his staff is used mostly when patrons used to the light are found at night.

Personality: Convoy is a bit of a grouch when first confronted, but for good reason. Since his profession is selling/moving goods, either made by him or by someone else, Convoy has had to deal with some rather nasty customers. Just like his armor Convoy is hard to make a deal with when it comes to lower prices but you can pay him off with small things like beads or an extra pot of Queen Jelly. Also Convoy is rather knowledgeable and will give out bits of information for free when asked.
On the flip side Convoy is also a bit lonely. Being a nomad means traveling alone so Convoy spends most of his time without another's company. This makes some of his actions odd since they are based off of not being able to associate and communicate well with others. Those actions leaves him childish and exposed; two things he is not comfortable with.

Likes: Cucumber ("likes" is not a strong enough word XD ), Slightly damp dark places, Traveling, Meeting new races, Old contacts, Running his business, music, and Teasing the more cannibalistic characters (dangerous but he's able to get away with it).

Dislikes: Annoying kids, sprained ankles (he has lots of legs!), deserts (ie. dry places), crowds, and some spiders (but a customer is a customer so...).

and for kicks: Item Shoppe Remix By HouseMasta http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/15551

Traveling specialties: Since Convoy is heavily armored he is able to go into rather hostile territory and come out with just a few scratches. For this he is relied upon by a few higher-up shop owners since he can take shortcuts others can not.

Star Staff: This item shines like a lamp light (or a low volt flashlight) with a soft glow. If the light was any stronger it would hurt his eyes.

Name: Agrimony

Sex: Female

Age: 34

Race: Mantos (Great Malaysian Shield Mantis)

Home: Darpan (Vunvava)

Appearance: Agrimony is a rather tall, slender person and walks with a sway in her hips. She has long black hair that's cut off just above her second pare of arms and drapes over her shoulders a bit. Her bangs are cut in a strait line showing off her face and most of her hair is held up in buns by sapphire blue bangles. Most of Agrimony is a moss green color while her thighs and the top of her abdomen are a deep magenta. Underneath her abdomen she has plates that end in a circular formation, almost like the ribs on a barrel, and on the tips of each segment is a dot. Oh her back is a shield like attachment that is completely green like the hard wing coverings that fold over her abdomen. Agrimony usually dresses in the nateive clothes from her home and wears only a small ammount of jewelry. This means she's usually dressed in gold, blue, or red. While all of the clothes may be colorful, it's her eyes that I love coloring. They are a sapphire blue like her hair bangles and the have a small black dot in them that's hard to see. Usually her eyes are half lidded giving her a dazed look and often times she's seen with a smoking pipe while not dancing.

Personality: Agrimony is a bit of a Miss. Independent. She is also rather practical and is reluctant to leave her club for very long periods of time. While she is not motherly, the girls on the street know her as a helping hand (that comes with a small price). Being defensive is not one of her more obvious sides but she does have some wits and can easily defend her pride without cursing. Over all Agrimony is a long stretch of unexpected influence and secret deals, other than that she's a hard woman to pin down.

Likes: Melon (the food not the person), fish and rice with soy-sauce, dancing, and water. (she's rather simple.)

Dislikes: Higher authority, meddlers, people (other than herself) who badmouth her employees.

Theme song: Crepuscolo Sul Mare Hip Hop/Jazz REMIX by Oceans Twelve https://www.youtube.com/user/Gigagear#play/all/favorites-all/1/w8cg2R36NfI (I could have gone with a more oriental theme but that's to easy.)

Sol: Agrimony does have a personal attendant that goes missing from time to time. Even thought he disappears Agrimony seems to know exactly where he is (which is creepy) and when anyone asks what's going on Agrimony tells them "Sol is out exploring life." ... whatever that means. -_-;;

Name: Sol

Sex: Male

Age: 16 yrs (sub- adult)

Race: Mantos

Home: Darpan (Vunvava) At Agrimony's club.

Appearance: Sol is rather short for a mantis. While Agrimony is easily 6 ft 2 he's more of a 5 ft 4. At first he can be a rather confusing thing to look at. He has the same coloration as a Hyme Wasp but with key parts of a Mantis; namely the scythes and false eyes on top of his head. The most markings are on his upper arms and on his chest. Sol's wings are long and half of them are clear while the other half is black with a large dot of yellow. His eyes are a regular black color, so nothing special there, but the little plates underneath his eyes add a touch of originality. Sol's sickles are almost always held up to his chest hiding whatever markings may be under them and he does wear bangles like his boss but on his arms. These bangles are a jade green.


Personality: Hyper. Hyper, hyper, hyper, hyper, hyper and wants to be into everything. Unlike his boss, Sol leaves the club to explore but doesn't really know what he comes in contact with. Sol tries his best to soak up as much information as possible and as such he gives away explanations. Unfortunately his brain works on another level altogether and they come out sounding like a three year old's. He's a rather clingy, "there is no such thing as personal space" kind of bug because he's come into close contact with The Girl's who have a Hive Mind. He's used to being climbed all over and doing the climbing so taller characters BEWARE. >XD Sol has a good sense of humor and enjoys a good joke at any time of day or night but he does have his odd quirks. I guess I could have summed Sol up in about two words, dimwitted and odd but where's the fun in that? XD

Likes: Sleeping in, sun naps, messy food, exploring, jokes, new things, and being mischievous.

Dislikes: People who don't answer him, those who stop his fun, and ghosts.

Work: Sol has job as Agrimony's personal attendant. He run's errands and is rather fast at it. Sol has been known to take the rooftops as a way of getting around town instead of walking with the masses.

Name: Buahmanis (Buah)

Sex: Female

Age: 19

Race: Pygmy Spider (Crab Spider)

Home: Odrii Jungle.

Appearance: This little lady is not a hunter but is an important part of Pygmy life; she is a Bone Maiden. Bone Maiden's take the left overs of kills made by the tribe and she personally thanks them for giving their lives up for her kin. Ceremonies involve freshwater to bathe the bones and a fresh beryl sight near where the prey was killed. (now onto what she actually looks like) Minnanni is small like the rest of her kind but is completely white in color with peach here and there. THe tips of her feet, hands and extra limbs are a light peach color with gold colored pads. There are small gold markings around her eyes, neck, ankles and wrists with one placed right in the middle of her chest. These are actually pieces of gold leaf that have been specially grafted to her skin. Minnanni wears grass and bone clothes which are not rare in Pygmy society but she wears more than usual. She is accompanied by the sound of lightly chattering bones, almost like a rain stick, and the sound of swaying grass. Her eyes are a deep charcoal black and the head dress on top of her head is made of white bone and vines. Minnanni's most prized possession is her bone ear-rings which came from her first official beryl ceremony. Her hair is white with peach ends and is wispy where the ends frey. Minnanni doesn't really have to do much for her hair though, the springs she goes to healthy water with minerals running though it so it's soft and sleek but doesn't shine unfortunately.

Pic Peanutchan (Temporary pic).
Personality: Minnanni is not shy even though most people are three times her size. Completely polite and composed she seems to have reached a slight nirvana with nature and since she makes no sudden movements unless necessary animal life is relaxed around her. Maybe they can tell that she respects nature's cycle of life and death on a different level then most? Who knows.

Likes: Nature, bird songs, visitors, the semi- quiet of the jungle.

Dislikes: (not much) Unnecessary blood shed, people treading on her grave-sights.

Headdress: The design on her headdress shows that she is a Bone Maiden and not a Bone Lady (a higher up in ceremonial society who handles the bodies of the tribe when they die).

Name: Apex

Sex: Male

Age: 40

Race: Hymn

Home: Dark Wood

Appearance: Tall (7'4), broad shouldered, and mean-looking. It's not wonder this bruit has made it into the frontline defense for his hive, the Dark Wood. His eyes are a bloodshot red and part of an old wound is hidden behind his right shoulder guard. It's hard to take this guy down but he's not invincible, thats something that may have to be pounded into his head.

Personality: Apex is a solitary creature even though he lives in a hive and has high expectations for himself. This high standard of living has gotten him into the frontline. Although he isn't the highest ranking member of the defense team he does command a special unit comprised of a few whom he trusts. Unlike Convoy or Sol, who would have no idea what to do with you, Apex knows EXACTLY what to do (and it won't be pretty either). He'll backhand you if you do something stupid or just backhand you if he feels like it. Apex isn't unfair or stupid enough to harm Hive members that are not old enough to fight back (i.e. kids and child barring Meddians) but he won't coddle you either. Apex takes his duties seriously but some times he feels that the punishment for some crimes are not enough and sometimes takes the matters into his own hands. It will take a special type of Meddian to cull this cur.

Likes: Respect, his Morning Star, the smell of the Apothecary, and his Team.

Dislikes: Dealing with irate hive members, being interrupted, insubordination, his few moments of weakness.
