Sunukkuhkau :: The Creature

Appearance: The tales passed down through the generations of the town say that he is a massive beastly figure with an animal skull head and otherwise dark figure. Some legends say it is long and lanky, like a skeleton with fine black leather pulled tight around the bones in only a few places. Other legends tell of its massive size and flowing robes dark as a starless night sky. What they truly looks like, no one knows for sure.
Age: Centuries
Species: Unseelie Fae: Wendigo
Bio: Born to this land, the Creature has always been possessive. Nothing can suffice its unending hunger for more; more food, more land, more of everything. Humans have tried to cultivate their lands before and it has crushed them all. The Natives came to call it, Sunukkuhkau, roughly translating to "he who crushes." New humans came to the lands, following the same misfortune as all the others before them. Then, they offered up a sacrifice in exchange for permission to live and work the land. Accepting, the Creature took its prize and returned to the nearby woods.

Now, centuries later, this tradition continues yet the Creature grows weary and bored of the exchange; it is to be feared, not celebrated! What if it were not to take the intruder's sacrifice? What if it were to leave them be... what fun might that bring along?

Other: Abilities to be revealed during the story

• Surrounded by darkness - can make it so the area is completely dark and nearly impossible to see
• Shape changer - can take on a mock for of a human, either male or female.

Aaranya Singh : The Sacrifice

Age: 19

Bio: Aaranya grew up with her parents and eight-years-older brother. She was a pretty normal girl with a pretty normal life (for this town) until around the time she turned fifteen. Then, she began to hear voices and know things that nobody else heard or knew. She tried to keep these secrets to herself, but she could only contain her new reality for so long. Some called her crazy, some called her a blessed prophet, some called her a witch, and a few of the more educated townspeople used the word "schizophrenia." Her parents tried to support her as a "blessed prophet" at first, but they never really believed her or respected her worldview, and they became frustrated when Aaranya's behavior grew increasingly less "proper."

About six months ago, some sort of turning point happened. Rumors say Aaranya committed some sort of terrible crime, though the exact crime is unknown, with many different versions going around. Her parents disowned her and she went to live with her older brother.

About one month ago - an intentionally short time, so the person involved would have little time to rebel or escape - Aaranya was randomly (supposedly?) chosen as the next Sacrifice.

Other: Aaranya is quite aware that her mind does not work like others' minds. She has figured out some ways to manage her situation, but sometimes she has outbursts of strange behavior. On the other side of the coin, Aaranya has low self-confidence and poor ability to "believe in herself," as she knows that her beliefs don't always line up with everyone else's world. She is usually quiet and gentle, preferring deep thought over shallow words. Though her family was not very spiritual growing up, she has found solace in Hindu traditions and assigns the voices in her head to different deities. Aaranya's greatest passion is poetry. She loves to read and write poetry in her free time, and before her... selection, her dream was to learn multiple languages so she could read even more poetry in its original form.

The Rudel family has since kept the town library well kept over the years. They reside on the second floor of the building. Aleksander is a kind man, even after the loss of his wife 10-years ago. She was selected and sacrificed like so many others before her.

Bio: Born to a family of librarians, Melissa seems to always have her nose in a book. After the loss of her mother at the age of 8, this young redhead has taken it upon herself to learn as much as possible about the creature to little avail. Centuries of rumor and speculation have left very little in the way of actual facts the girl can get her hands on. Still, her quest continues as she attends yet another year of festivities surrounding the offering of one of their own.
