<br/><strong>Name:</strong>Vael (http://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/0/07/Vael_Human_Form.jpeg)<br/><strong>Current Form: </strong>Human<br/><strong>Players Nearby:</strong>Open<br/><strong>Location: </strong>On a beach somewhere near Dras'Usarak (Draishok City)<hr/><br/>It had taken Vael hours to do anything, the sun had long set before he took to the sky. It was night time, the stars had always sparked the same curiosity that digging into the earth did, but on a lesser scale. He had noticed the tides change when the white rock was in the sky or when the yellow one was (during the day). In his time looking in the sky, he had seen a red and even a blue rock out in the black sea (sky). The smaller specks (stars) looked like the granite flakes he had dug out of the earth, some shinier then others. A set of sky flakes drew his attention far in the horizon, it was those lights he followed until his wings felt they would fall from his back.<br/><br/>During the long flight he learned fear for the first time, fear of being engulfed by the water, the endless water. When the nesting grounds vanished behind him he almost turned back, the urge to return to his cavern was strong. At one point he did try to fly back but he was lost out at sea(in the air)! The same specks threatened to vanish into the morning hues, it was early morning when he spotted land and with a surge of adrenaline and survival instinct, he landed harshly on soft beach. A large rock, the kind that no other being would ever be able to move or make use of looked like paradise. The last bits of strength were used to rip a cavern into the rock with the claws powerful enough to rip into the rock like a hot knife through soft flesh. The rock cave was large enough for him in his human form and with that thought, he shifted before collapsing in a slumber that lasted days!<br/><br/>Vael did not know of the outside world, he had seen his own clutch mates take different forms but was unaware of the politics that played outside the nest. When he woke a few days later he felt his stomach rumbling, the urge to shift and hunt was strong but his lack of energy made it impossible. He would be stuck in his current form until he could regain his strength. Vael knew the ocean held a bounty but when one was famished, patience was not abundant. That was when he came across brown shelled stones (coconuts) that had white flesh within it, yellow sweet moon slivers (bananas) hung from trees along the coastlines. These exotic foods were new to him, they were not as filling as hard shells and fish, but after eating his fill he managed to regain enough energy and patience to try to pull some out of the water.
