In the beginning the beasts of fantasy ran wild and terrorized humans. It was in the prehistoric dawn that that humans found out how to capture the beasts. They did so with cave paintings. Over the centuries the Tellers developed and perfected the art of trapping. However, it soon became apparent, that the beasts were not happy being imprisoned. The stronger beasts would break free from their captivity of walls and scrolls and murals and ran rampant once more. It was decided, in the times of ancient Egypt, by Pharaoh Khafre, that the beasts must be tamed.
Thus Tamers were trained to control the remaining compliant, and possibly compliant beasts to hunt down the rouges. Over the years, Tamers passed down their Tell Tale Beasts scrolls, books and tablets to their children who would discover their Beast ability between ages of sixteen and eighteen.
In the year 2016 most Tellers are long gone and the practice is small due to the rise in taming of Tell Tale Beasts. Tamers, however, need constant training with each new generation. It is in Scandinavia that Teller University caters to the training needs of Tamers and their beasts.

Name: Kilik Nakaharu Age: 23 Rank: Student Bio: When Kilik was younger, he seemed average. Just perfectly normal. That is, until his 16th birthday. From his mother and father, he got a skateboard, even though he really disliked it. How were they supposed to nkow though? It's not like he ever really talked to them. Kilik didn't have a very good relationship with his family. His grandparents got him some money, just $100, not much. Then there was Uncle Ken. Ken was... peculiar, to say the least. He wasn't around much. He would be off doing things all the time without letting anybody know and he'll come back beat up and make up some crazy story. Uncle Ken gave Kilik a box of his old books and told him to start reading. They were important somehow, but his mom didn't want them to have them for some reason. They were just old books and some weird drawings, what was wrong with it. Fast forward 2 years, Kilik is 18. He has learned about his past and searched for 2 years for his beast. The one he felt was... right. Many hours spent looking. Then on a day where Kilik wasn't even searching, he stumbled across a beast. As he walked down the street, in an ally he saw something... it looked gross to him. Kilik remembered seeing it in a book. It was a doppleganger! The doppleganger looked at him and turned into him, smiled and ran. After a long chase Kilik caught the doppleganger, who just smiled and laughed. Which of course made him smile and laugh. That's how Kilik met Verenkilar/Iden Personality: Kilik is a very honest person. He wouldn't care much if he hurt your feelings with something he thinks is just a fact, or a "better opinion". He is very smart, has a decent sense of humor, and doesn't really feel emotions as strongly as others. He feel VERY angry, but can only feel slightly happy, slightly sad, etc. Appearance:
Bio: Vic was born into a middle class family in a rural part of Canada. A small town with not much going on, it was one of those "out-of-the-way" towns that you drive through on your way to your cousins or your grandma's. This town that Vic lived in, grew up in and went to school in, it had sort of a quaint feel. Victor was born in the general hospital to a May and Russel Taylor in the dead of winter on a particularly snowy day. Vic's mother was a very enthusiastic Teller who was usually open about her endeavors, throughout Vic's upbringing his mother often spoke of her trials as a teller and spoke of how, "It's gunna be the new hip thing, you just watch!". Of course, Vic's interest in the art of the beasts piqued at a young age. Vic's father was indifferent to his mothers talents as a Teller, but because she was his wife he went along with it. Vic spent his few years of High school almost completely in the library, researching the Tellers and Tamers. He'd made it is goal to become one of the greatest Tamers to live, through conviction and training. Although this meant years of training and practice, Vic was willing to dediicate his life to a beast and to being a Tamer. During his high school years Vic had found his beast and had decided to move to Scandinavia to further is knowledge and talent as a Tamer.
Abilities: Vic has the natural ability to communicate with animals. He can speak to them and understand them as if he was talking with a human. Although he can talk to animals, this doesn't mean he can necessarily persuade them or calm them down. It's much like talking to a human, if you're anti-social it's not likely you'll be able to pick up on the subtle hints and social signs they may be giving.
This ability works well on wild animals and beasts, but when it comes to the beasts of other tamers, their voices and words get distorted making much harder to communicate with them.

Name: Namid Agha Age: 24 Rank: Teacher Subject: unknown, (shes only started a student before leaving)
Appearance:
Linked to her beast they are the first things anyone sees and easiest way to find out who she is.
Tamer Appearance:
Personality: Namid is a calmer mind than most. When working with her beast she seems to be connected to him and him alone. A strong presence that seems to demand respect she is a bit intimidating at first. Especially if you are about to go against her in the show arena due to her competitive nature. Though when around those who call her friend she seems to be somewhat easy going, even one to make jokes. Shes passionate in everything she dose, and so once something is found she will become obsessed with it if it captures her interest. Never ask her what happened in that time her and her beast were gone.
Beast Name: Entai/Despair (It has different names depending on the culture) Beast Species: Mount
Beast Appearance:
Compared to a human they would be lucky to be able to reach his chest, massive thing he is.
Mundane Beast Name: Dolsha Registered name: Beautifully blind. (Equines are required to be registered under a title instead of a name) Mundane Beast Species: friesian stallion
Mundane Beast Appearance:
History: Namid came from a poor family, living penny to penny she did not get a whole lot of support for her hobbies. Everything she wanted, she had to become creative in gaining. So at a young age when she gained an interest in horses, Namid decided it was time to volunteer at a stable in exchange for riding lessons. Learning fast Namid grew to love the creatures. Growing out of the easy going nature of old schooling horses she was given ill tempered equines to start training. Strangely enough she never asked for payment from the owners yet one who came to her with a ill tempered mare insisted that she take a old worn in leather book with nothing but a burned in sigil on the cover. Not wanting to be rude Namid took the book, finding it was a strange read, only bits and pieces she could understand since only a few lines were of english but seeing the images she deducted that it had something to do with the afterlife or fantasy, cults anything that was not a good topic for normal conversation. "His hooves of thunder and fear" "Would cause those to run whenever he was seen to be near" "Carrying another on his back" "Souls would follow him like a pack" "Eyes of silver, never dying" "Not a word spoken, yet he could see if you're lying" "Fangs bared and flames alight" "He will bring forth your end" "At the vary first sight."
And that is when Dolsha came along.
He was a stunning creature. A beast like no other, only a year old and yet he towered over most. With a coat of ebony and a gaze like nothing she had ever seen she made it a life long goal to be able to find a mutual stand with the stallion. Not allowing a single person near him though caused the task to become difficult. She could not even find a single horse that would stand near him without going mad with fright by his presence. That was until her grandfather decided to give her tips, pointing out when it was good to approach Dolsha and when not to. In doing so she began to find ways to make a bond. Never step down, always demand respect and be seen as worthy in the eyes of the stallion. The sight attracting the attention of her teacher he began to really show her what she was dealing with. A beast that towered over any equine she had ever seen. With fires licking the skies and a gaze of hell itself. Reading up on him she found his tale in stores, the mount of Death himself, the carrier of the future ruler of the world, the beast who's hooves could break open the land and send those who have disobeyed to the under world. Entai,Despair,Binky, the names go on but the tale was the same. He was said to be the dealer of the dead.
Namid and Dolsha ended up creating a bond like no other. Her teacher said that he could not believe how careful Dolsha was with her. His cold gaze turning to that of trust for only her. And so she with his permission she began to take the stallion to competitions. His grace and power like no other they destroyed the grand prix and covent garden shows, taking to world championships and pulling Namid's family out of poverty. With Dolsha at her side the two made a name for themselves and in doing so they separated from Namid's teacher. A graduated student who could easily pass her knowledge down to another with the strong connection she has to her beast. Even taking on a student once only to leave after only a year of training the young tamer. Instead she found herself staying away from the world of beasts and tamers altogether. A coldness now edges her voice whenever someone asks why. Yet she can't stay hidden, even after she vanished for a few years she returned with Dolsha, her eyes are now identical to her Stallion and seem to pierce the vary soul.
Abilities: Like her tamer’s for Dolsha before her she has been given the powers of illusion. Only Dolsha himself can send souls to the underworld or punish them but the rider is able to show someone his or her own death. Easiest way to spot this is when the rider's eyes will change from just being the colour linked to Dolsha, to begin to glow and loose their pupils as well in order to pierce one's vary soul.
When in battle though, Namid has gained the weapon passed down from tamer to tamer that has been seen through almost every story when concerning the mount of the underworld. In the english term is the scythe or the harvester of souls, a strange name considering that its the beast who dose the actual harvesting.
A pair of chain scythes they are usually connected with blue flames to become an extended weapon. When riding they connect at the centrer to be the full lengthen blade.
@knockout709 Hey was reading through your bio again, the beasts are kept inside the books or are already affiliated with the family or something similar. Could you change your bio just a tad. I just posted the headmaster bio so you could take a look at that to understand what I mean.
@CloseEnough I didn't notice early, but could you add something about you discovering a book/scroll/stone tablet etc for your beast? I didn't make it clear enough and so I'm making sure the other profiles are in line.

The one he felt was... right. Many hours spent looking. Then, on a normal day, while reading through one of his favorite books, he found a page he didn't notice before. A picture... it looked like him when he was younger, a small boy with red eyes. He rubbed his fingers on it, and the picture faded away slowly. Puzzled, he closed the book and pondered for a bit and then looked back. The page that the boy was on was now gone completely! At that moment, Kilik heard a noise behind him. He flipped around and saw the boy here. He smiled and reached for the boy. Suddenly, it transformed into him and grinned. Something just felt... right, like they fit together. Personality: Kilik is a very honest person. He wouldn't care much if he hurt your feelings with something he thinks is just a fact, or a "better opinion".
