Minky Grendelchi Trell | born 6/3/2013 | 7 | Minky was a skinny little thing, a soft hearted Grendel who was hatched in a pile of dusty soft blankets somewhere in the forest. She was snuffly and loved soft things, especially if they're fluffy. Truly a Grendelchi of the woods, Minky enjoyed a good romp in the forest, exploring, wood carving, and lazing in the trees, munching apples. Sometimes, in her spare time, Minky liked to act like a monkey!
Despite being rather thin, Minky was quite strong from climbing trees. She had taken advantage of her extremely light build to teach herself to hang from her own tail!
She often watched unsuspecting Creatchis who wander into her arboreal abode from up in the treetops. She meant no harm though, she was just too shy to come down and say hello!
Minky felt slightly jealous of the soft fur that other Creatchis possess, and rather disliked that she has spiky scales instead. When she got older, and met a fabulous young Ettin by the name of Peaches, she learned to love her scales and became rather proud of them!
In her childhood, Minky was still very timid and shy, but she became rather adventurous! She stomped around the woods, having make believe adventures in a blanket fort with her favorite toys. Also included in her little adventures is her good friend Grog, who happily tagged along wherever she went.
As an adolescent, Minky was much more confident and eager for real adventures and excitement. She was a creatchi of habit, however, and was sure to return to her pile of fluffy blankets in her grassy forest home each night.
Despite being less timid now, she still found herself shying away from most other Creatchis; often preferring to watch them carefully from the trees. This often left her feeling rather lonely though.
Minky was married to her childhood friend, Grog, and had two darling sons to call her own. She loved her husband and both her children dearly, though she never got to see her second baby hatch. She was very proud of her little family.
In adulthood, Minky grew very fond of her forest home. She was an expert tree climber, and could identify all the plants that grow there. As she grew into old age, she met a lovely young Ettin by the name of Peaches, and quickly befriended her. Peaches helped her overcome her shyness and love herself for who she was.
Though she is passed on, Minky will forever be remembered.
Rest in peace, little monkey. Minky feels sleepy~ |

The smaller Creatchi gently sits down on the grass next to the Grendel. Her red eyes examine the mud pool before taking a sharp intake of breath and scooping up some...before dropping it suddenly "Oh! ...ah...I never liked the feeling of dirt on my paws." She then hesitantly goes to scoop some more mud, this time holding it steadily in her hand.
| |
|
Without further hesitation, the ruby Grendel slathers some of the smooth, soft earth on her scales. With a contented sigh, she sits on the cool grass. "It's surprisingly nice."
| |
|
The pink ettinchi blinked before smelling the mud...what a strange site "..You are right, though I usually don't go sticking my snout in dirt." She says in a joking tone.
| |
|
Minky chuckles. "Smell it. It doesn't smell like dirt."
| |
|
Peaches hesitantly looks to the mud, closely examining it...as if she actually had a clue what she was doing "Hmm, all mud looks the same to me..But I trust you."
| |
|
"Guess it never hurts to try!" Minky stops in front of a stone cave. There's a small patch of light brown mud near a berry bush not far from the mouth of the cave. "This is the place!" She scoops up a little bit of the mineral-rich mud for Peaches to inspect.
| |
|
"I never have tried it before, but I walked past a Creatchi that was playing in mud..and it gave me the idea." Peaches gave a chuckle
| |
|
"With pleasure!" She starts off to find the cave. "I've only ever used this mineraly stuff on my face, but it seems to work pretty good. It's not ucky like most mud."
| |
|
"Alright dearie! Do lead the way please." Peaches gives a smile "Have you ever taken a mud bath before darling?"
| |
|
She scratches her head a moment before she remembers. "I know just the place! I find it beneath a specific tree by this cave..."
