Not many have ever approached Humble in her young life, though not by conscious choice: a brown slip of an Acha like her just blends too well into the Swamp's endless trees. She has plenty to recommend herself with: she strikes like a watersnake, and speeds like a hare - but, amongst the tangling mangrove, her earthy coat is just as hard to spot. She doesn't mind, her stealthiness makes her an excellent hunter, and the solitude keeps her Humble.
BEE [ 04.11.2023 ]
Simply named Bee, this humble creature who took up with her in her hunts reminds Humble that we are all humble beeings.

NOTES :: Loner Kin win from New Start. I was super lucky 'cos she was my only pref...
PETS :: I've been single-mindedly stuffing the same pet semi CC in for years ever since humblebees were introduced - and it finally got rolled in the September 2023 Pet CC Thread! QAQ Humble finally gets her Bee.

Remarkably chill for someone raised by Lambhearted, perhaps because he's never had to worry since his Mother dad's done all the worrying for him.
An excellent finder, the striking buck spends much of his time locating resources and lost children for the Mother's Club, and is a blessing in a crisis. Lambhearted is very proud.
BONDS :: Lambhearted - his very worried mom-dad adopted him as an egg because he was way too colourful and had no natural camouflage; Finder appreciates it
KEEPER [ 06.02.2020 ]
Sometimes Keeper scouts ahead, and drifts back to drape its noodly appendages, pulling Finder down the right path.

PETS :: I think Keeper was a pet trade...from 2014. QAQ For the longest time I meant to give it to Maggie to be Lost Light, but it wasn't quite right...and then Finder popped up five years later!

Generally sensible and practical, Parsley is a competent performer - who isn't even actually sure she reeaally wants to stand on the stage. But Friendly Fire is so intense in his ambition, she feels she ought to stick around to balance him out, and so she's always ready with a thoughtful word, saving her sharp tongue for cutting down the most cutting of his comments, and telling the others to pay him no mind when he oversteps his bounds.
BONDS :: Friendly Fire – someone's gotta keep her brother in line
This Totoma's natural coat could have helped them become a great hunter - if the sand bar had afforded as much shadow and tree as the inner Swamp. Still, the tribe needed meat to make its meals with. So, instead of trying to blend in with her surroundings, she took a different tack: waiting. She could stay still for hours. Had such a lot of patience. Could wait like anything. And, eventually, when a mongoose, or a foxbun, or what have you, finally let down its guard and brushed past the long-immobile bulk - bam!
Her method of operation wasn't quite evident to her kith and kin, however, in its early stages.
"What are you doing?" some would say (startling away her targeted prey), "are you waiting?"
"What are you waiting for?"
"Still in wait?"
"You're still waiting?"
"Where's the waiter?"
"Waiter!"
It stuck, even as her methods started producing delicious results, and it wasn't long before cries of, "Where's that dang Waiter?!" started resounding through the Sand Bar.
Gentle-eyed, and patient as the moon that hangs in an even sky. All things in balance, where still water meets the bank's muddy edge. Quietly, he soothes.
NOTES :: I fell in love with him on sight, not least because I have a long history of OCs with hair like that…but I never expected Ruri and Maxx would give him to me…! QAQ I've been holding on to this name a long time, the only (automated) tarot card reading I ever had, right after middle school graduation, having spat out Temperance, the Devil, and Death. Also as it turns out, it's my birth Tarot.

NOTES :: When Starry mentioned how hard she'd been trying for Thoushalt's horns, I jokingly offered my Touch-Me-Not who'd inherited them for breeding, and she literally just straight-out RLC'd these babies whom I love so much!! QAQ Thankfully, she did get Thoushalt's horns from them…

Unlike her stately elder sister, she's a prickly bud, fractious and leery, yet to come into her own. But, also unlike her sister, she is real, and very much here.

Hidden away - hidden in shame; mired in the wide sargasso sea. She wanders now, but time to time, her mind still flounders there. Don't look on her, she wouldn't know how to take it - slowly, slowly. There now.
