Izanami was named for the Japanese goddess of death. She fully intended to live up to her namesake, but fortunately for the rest of Creatchi-kind one mistake after another kept her from doing anything really damaging.

As opposed to the standard friendly creatchi, she was scheming, stubborn, and incredibly prideful. She was constantly developing plans to get rid of the thing she hated most: ettinchis. Her dislike of them was so extreme that it seemed instinctive, and it could very well have been. Besides the fact that they were so numerous during her lifetime that they pranced about like they own the place (or so she said), even she didn't know what about them angered her so much.

As it turned out, being one of the nastiest Creatchis around did not pay off. She spent so much time scheming that she failed to do anything about the Ettinchi "problem," and her general personality kept chasing away potential mate after potential mate. Stubborn as she was, she refused to change.

In the end, she died alone and unloved. She failed to remove even a single Ettinchi, and she failed to keep her bloodline going. Such tends to be the fate of villains, but for Izanami it was all the more humiliating because there was no one opposing her except her own stupidity.

She strongly prefered socializing with other grendelchis only, but she did make a few Nornchi friends despite herself.

Funny how Sleeping Sands's great-niece is older than him. [nlaugh]

He shakes her hand, but it takes a few second before he remembers his name. "Mine is Peryite. And I will hunt with you for a little while. I do have to ask though, what would we be hunting? I don't quite like the taste of your tail... Also does the name 'Bolle' mean anything to you?"

Before Izanami can reply though, an interesting smell crosses Peryite's nose and he starts after it.

If the initial opportunity didn't convince her, the fact that the little male just outright said he thought he was an orphan plus the fact that he already was developing an ego certainly did. Izanami saw a lot of potential in him. The trick now was to get him to warm up to her....

"Well, you could try looking for them. That's what I did, and I found them within a day or two," she said, before frowning slightly. "But if you've already been searching for that length of time, then chances are you aren't going to find them. Kinda sad, really."

She left the statement hanging in the air for a bit, before leaning up against a nearby tree and crossing her arms. "However, regardless of the presence of family, you still need someone to give you guidance. For example, the hunt that lead you to me. Your skills so far are pretty admirable, but you still need some practice."

She then grinned. "So that's why I suggest we stick together. I've already some experience hunting, but if we pair up we'll be able to take down big prey. And I mean big. Far more impressive then grendelchi tail." She waved the end of her own tail as she said that.

She thought for a few more seconds. "Of course, before we go further down that route, we still need to exchange our names." She stuck out an arm. "Name's Izanami, kid."

Peryite growls and jumps for her tail a few times before giving up. He holds his head up proudly before answering her. "The very ground your walking on is my parent. I hatched from the Earth itself!" Then he gives up the act and kicks a rock into a tree. "Or at least that's what I -like- to think. I don't think I have any family." He glares at her though, not quite trusting her.

After the little male spat out her tail, Izanami held it up at a spot where he couldn't get at it, shaking it a little to get rid of the slobber.

"Don't know, huh?" she repeated, before thinking some more. "You think you've got parents around here somewhere? Living parents, I mean."


((@Lisha: Preferably not right this second, but Izanami will probably be taking Peryite out on the hunt soon enough....))

Peryite makes a weird face when trying to remember this "language" thing, how long has he been an egg exactly? He chews on Izanami's tail while thinking. He finally remembers and says with a mouthful of tail, "Don't know, just smelt something weird and pounced on it." He spits it out and repeats himself when she couldn't understand him the first time.

Would Ethan be able to join in the RP?
He is an ettinchi, but it would be interesting to have one in it! ^-^

Izanami heard the roar, or rather baby-ish attempt at a roar, and shortly afterwards felt something gnawing on her tail. As it turned out, she hadn't needed to go far to find another grendelchi after all.

Once the little green male dropped off, she took a good look at him. He seemed healthy enough for someone who seemed to have spent a while by himself. She confirmed that he was indeed by himself after taking a deep breath in and smelling no other grendels apart from herself and the one in front of her.

She looked back at him, a thoughtful expression on her face. It was possible that he just hadn't found his parents yet; after all, it took her a while to find her own. Yet, it was equally probable that he had no parents at all.

If the latter was true, then opportunity had come right up and bit her in the tail. He was, after all, a baby. She could easily take that malleable brain and forge it into a well-tuned ettin hunting machine. He already had the hunting part down, anyway.

Outwardly, however, she gave the little male a sweet, friendly smile before crouching down to his level. "So, kid, what brings you here?" she asked of him.

The unamed baby Grendelchi roars as he pounces on Izanami's tail and tries to chew it off. He stops when he realizes that he has no teeth. He doesn't know what to do so he just looks at Izanami with a confused look on his face.

Now that she'd had enough time to gather what life was all about, Izanami was ready to figure out what she wanted to do with it.

Granted, she already knew what she wanted to do with it. It was a matter of figuring out how best to go about doing it. Already she was coming up with ideas....

The first order of business, she figured, was to find a business partner. Either an older Grendel who knew what he or she was doing, or a younger one so the two of them could learn the ropes together.

She definitely wasn't going to find that partner if she just stood here, and so she was soon off, following her nose around in search of other grendels.
