Character name: Jarrah Ahmat
Age: 28

Star Sign: Leo
Blood Type: O+

Spirit Allies: A dingo spirit known as Gaiya and Coen the spirit of an aboriginal warrior and Jarrah's ancestor
Medium: A dingo tooth necklace and a boomerang
Oversouls: By inserting Gaiya into the tooth the spirit manifests in the form of a floating dingo head with an oversized mouth and fangs attached to Jarrah by 6 foot long "rope", in this form Gaiya can't really move on his own but he can still bite so Jarrah uses the rope to swing him around.

Coen's oversoul looks like a series of glowing balls covering the boomerang used as his medium and allows him to create small rudimentary versions of his limbs made up of the balls from the points, one on each side. This allows him among other things slightly alter it's flightpath or run back to Jarrha after hitting himself and thus falling to the ground. He can't launch himself into the air though

Background: Jarrah was taught the basics of being a shaman by his grandfather who also used Coen as a Guardian Spirit and entrusted the ghost warrior to him upon his own death. For his dayjob he is an electrician though when not busy with his job or his duty as a shaman he often helps out in the local museum and tells aboriginal myths and legends which both his grandparents used to do.

Having learned about what is going through the Dreaming he has decided to leave Australia for the time being and join the Darkstars to put a stop to it

Name: Narantuyagiin Bataar

Place of Origin: Mongolia

Background: In Mongolia, everyone has what is known as a Sülde; a guardian spirit. Sometimes it is an ancestor, sometimes it is even someone they knew, sometimes it is the spirit of a shaman or a lord or even a great historical figure. Everyone is watched over by a Sülde.

As a child it was discovered that Bataar’s Sülde was a great and powerful one; something that was seen as a sign that he would do great things in life. It was decided that he would train as a shaman, to learn to harness the power of his Sülde and use it to protect his people, to learn and preserve their traditions and to prepare for whatever life had in store for him.

When the call came from the Patch Tribe for shamans to help deal with a great evil, he was ready to answer it.

Guardian Spirit: The Khan; a former leader of Bataar’s clan from several hundred years past, before the Mongols could even claim to have an empire. A man of great renown and strength.

Medium: Lightning-struck drum; made from wood taken from a tree that was struck by lightning and with skin made from a horse’s skin. An important artefact in Mongolian Shamanism, the drum is said to represent the mount that carries the spirit to the shaman when invoked.

Oversoul: Bataar’s oversoul takes on the form of a giant drum held against his side; when it is summoned ethereal storm clouds float around Bataar and the drum.

Name: Pyrus

Age: 27

Star Sign: Scorpio

Blood Type: AB-

Spirit Ally: Pyrus' spirit ally is a massive wolf named Lobo. At one point, Lobo was the 'king' of the American Southwest, leading a large pack and terrorizing farmers and native tribes alike. It was only when Lobo's mate was killed by a pack of hunters that he was drawn out. Seeing no reason to live, Lobo allowed himself to be captured and he eventually starved himself to death. In death, Lobo's spirit roamed the Southwest, calling out for his mate. One day, he and Pyrus found each other. Finding kinship in their shared loneliness, Lobo became Pyrus's spirit ally on the condition that he would assist him in searching for Blanca, Lobo's mate.

Oversoul Medium: Pyrus's main medium is a bracelet made from wolf bones that he wears on his right arm. In addition, he is also able to manifest Lobo's spirit inside his own body as well and 'sync' with him, turning Pyrus into a wolf for a period of time.

Oversouls:
Lobo Utlunta By placing Lobo's spirit in Pyrus's bone bracelet, Lobo is able to manifest as a pair of large claws on Pyrus's hands. Lobo's spirit can manipulate the shape of the bones, allowing Pyrus to extend/fire the claws forward like spears.

Skinwalker Thanks to intense training from his mentor Quarta, Pyrus is able to use his own body as a medium and 'merge' with Lobo's spirit. This form grants Pyrus the strength and speed of a wolf as well as sharpened senses. The drawback is this form consumes a large amount of mana, so it's only used in dire situations.

Background: Life was never easy for Pyrus. Being born in the Kee Tribe of Native Americans, his mother died in childbirth and his father died on a hunting trip shortly thereafter. Viewing him as a 'bad omen', Pyrus was outcast from the tribe and left to fend for himself. One day, he found himself being chased down by a pack of vultures when his cries for help caught the attention of Lobo, who's arrival awakened Pyrus's shamanic power. A nearby Patch shaman named Quarta sensed this awakening and brought Pyrus and Lobo to the Patch Tribe where they began their training. Having lost a child of her own, Quarta became a mother figure to Pyrus in addition to his teacher. Pyrus joined the Darkstars as a means of repaying the Patch tribe for letting him in among them and to travel the world in the hopes of finding Lobo's mate and reuniting them.

Name: Fata Ndiaye
Age: 27
Starsign: Aquarius
Bloodtype: B+
Origin: West Africa

Guardian Spirit: Sango
A seirei-class spirit known as a Fangool, in this case a protective and sacred river entity. Sango takes the form of a large and colorful cobra, with a human-like chest and arms. She has a light-hearted personality, loves jokes and romance and is always willing to give others advice - whether they ask for it or not.

Spirit Medium: She uses two, depending on the Oversoul she summons. The first are anklets made from the clay of a riverbed. The second are capsules of various liquids that she keeps strapped to her person beneath her robes. Pangool are known as spirits that love offerings, and the liquids function as both offering and medium.

Oversouls:
Saloum River Serpent - Takes the form of a snake-like tail that envelopes Fata's legs and abdomen. It gives Fata incredible movement capabilities, being able to move swiftly as if swimming through water over ground and obstacles. The tail is flexible and able to wrap around people and objects as well, though that is not it's main purpose.

Split Arms: Ndepp and Loup - Tendrils that form around one or both of Fata's arms. They are capable of functioning as short-to-mid range whips, flails, maces, needles, and ropes - because they can easily change their shape to suite the situation. They are prehensile and capable of precise movements, and more than strong enough to lift things into the air. Depending on the type of liquid Fata uses as a medium, it will change the properties of the tendrils slightly. The most drastic of changes is in using blood as the medium, which significantly shortens the range of the tendrils but also gives them healing abilities.

Background:
Being the daughter of a tribal priest, Fata's future as a shaman was pre-determined. When she came of age and it was time to seek out a spirit partner for herself, Fata traveled the length of her country in order to bond with one of the Pangool that her culture revered. Eventually she found an ally and friend in Sango, a Fangool that happened to save Fata's life when a storm washed her into a river. They've been together ever since. The experiences Fata had while traveling became a part of her strength. When she returned home to continue her training, she proved to be adept at handling the flow of furyoku and spirit unity. This extends into her Oversouls as well, as what she lacks in strength she more than makes up for in speed, control, and fluidity. Years later when the green star sailed across the skies of Africa, Fata answered the call as the new high priestess of her people to fulfill that old promise between tribes.
