[Closed!]The sky people have finally left Pandora after many years. Unfortunately the cost of this was the loss of the Tree of Voices and ultimately the home of the Omaticaya clan. Now, under the guidance of the new clan leaders, Jakesully and Neytiri, the Omaticaya start to settle into their newfound Hometree and while they know how to survive the lands, there are new habits to get into that's difficult for many older members. The most hindering is the walk to the Vitraya Ramunon -The Tree of Souls- is a long trek, and dangerous to fly by Ikran. The Na'vi must relearn their lifestyle, a long and hard road, but one that must be taken. -- There is a "wait two posters" rule in place. Two other members must post before you can again, under most circumstances. -- Character Sheet: (Sorry, I deviated away from the normal sheet) Name: Age: Gender: Physical Appearance: Relationship Status: Personality: Bio/Info: Three Likes: Three Dislikes: An Interesting Fact: Clan Member?: (Yes/No) --Ikran's Appearance: --Ikran's Personality: -- Helpful References: Pandoran UniverseNa'vi LanguagePandorapediaLearn Na'vi.org

Here is my Character sheet: Name: Ne'shrin (pronounced nay-shh-REHn) Age: About 17 Gender: Male Physical Appearance: LinkRelationship Status: Single Personality: loves nature, as all Na'vi do, but Ne'shrin almost prefers it to the company of other Na'vi. He can be very grumpy and cynical at times, but has a good heart. Bio/Info: Almost of age, Ne'shrin is doing all he can to take the test to become a true member of the clan, but he's having a difficult time, for he'd rather be speaking and listening to the forest instead of hunting and training. Three Likes: Sleeping, climbing trees, food Three Dislikes: Long hunting trips, being pestered, bugs An Interesting Fact: He likes to whittle away his time by fletching arrows. Or generally attaching feathers to everything. Clan Member?: No --Ikran's Appearance: --Ikran's Personality:

Name: Marsha Sumac
Age: 26
Gender: Female
Physical Appearance: Long blonde hair, brown eyes, average height, skinny build. Her avatar form naturally is much taller and more muscular with brown hair that she keeps tied up in many braids and wrapped around her head.
Relationship Status: single; interested in a guy back on Earth
Personality: Friendly and curious about Pandora and getting to know new people, prone to stress
Bio/Info: She was a biologist back on Earth and heard about the Pandora project from Jake, whom she knew when she worked briefly for the military in a pre-avatar bioengineering project. He invited her to join him on Pandora to help with the Na'vi migration, and her connections enabled her to jump on a passing ship and he helped her use a Na'vi body that remained in the labs after the humans were kicked off Pandora. This body, however, wasn't made for her, and she's afraid that it might reject her.
Three Likes: the theory of evolution, animals, coffee
Three Dislikes: mornings, angry people, being caught in the rain
An Interesting Fact: Marsha braids her hair when she is nervous or bored. Her goal in life is to get an ikran partner.
Clan Member?: No --Ikran's Appearance: --Ikran's Personality:

<I have browsed wikis and am unable to find, at this late night period, either whether the prefix on Na'vi names means something important, or what the name of the tribe of red-painted Na'vi who lived by the sea was called. Therefore this sheet is tentatively waiting for that information. > Name: Ti'nalya Age: 23 Gender: female Physical Appearance: Lithe, with small eyes for a Na'vi, and red face paint in a mask form around her eyes Relationship Status: single Personality: martial, serious, straightforward Bio/Info: She was a member of the clan that lived by the sea until the decisive battle against the Sky People, when for a time the Na'vi tribes were united. During the confusion before the celebrations, however, her younger brother (and the other child of the clan chief) took his opportunity to attack his sister and make it look like she was killed in battle. She escaped him, but not before his knife sheared through her queue, leaving her severely wounded and unable to commune with Eywa. She fled her brother in a panic and, frightened to return to her tribe after hearing her brother tell her parents she died trying to escape the battle with the Sky People (therefore taking a huge blow to her honor), she stumbles into the Omaticaya migration to try to heal her mental and physical wounds. Three Likes: riding her ikran, talking, exploring the jungle and hunting Three Dislikes: politics, Sky People, loneliness An Interesting Fact: Her preferred weapon is the bow or slingshot--she doesn't like close-up fighting, especially after the attack by her brother. Clan Member?: Yes --Ikran's Appearance: A light blue body with blue stripes and yellow eyes --Ikran's Personality: When Ti'nalya met Oshirae, the ikran was young and still with its brood of siblings (although full-grown). Oshirae nearly tossed her potential rider onto her sibling's back before their connection was made. Since then, Ti'nalya has associated herself strongly with her ikran in terms of how they relate to their family. She hasn't seen her ikran in a few days since she started following the Omaticaya, and is afraid that something has befallen her, further paralleling their lives.

Character Sheet: Name: Lu’ Taw (Forbidden Sky)
Age: 16
Gender: Male
Physical Appearance: Muscular for his age, Lu’ Taw is often mistake for someone two years his senior. Unlike his former siblings, he was born without any illuminated spots on his face leading to his name. His eyes are a deep gold and have two dark blue stripes running from the tear ducts down to his chin. (Think a cheetah’s “tear streaks”)
Relationship Status: Single/ Young adult
Personality: Defensive, mournful, and aloof, Lu’ Taw often spends time on his own when he is not training. Since he does not have a Ikran companion yet, he spends his time exploring the forest with his dire horse, Night Song. He is passionate about becoming a strong warrior to protect the People, but doubts himself worthy of actually achieving that goal.
Bio/Info: Like many children who survived the Sky People attack on Hometree, Lu’ Taw lost family members. Having lost his mother at Hometree and later his father and two brothers when Jake lead the Ikran attack on the Sky People at the Tree of Souls, Lu’ Taw holds JakeSully personally responsible for him becoming an orphan. Despite his harbored bitterness, he still follows the orders of his Clan’s new leader and is taking in all the instruction he can from his instructor Tingay. He secretly hopes that she’ll see his efforts and dedication as a sign that he is ready to become a warrior even though he is young.
Three Likes: Learning skills that will make him a better warrior, studying the stars, riding with Night Song.
Three Dislikes: Sky People/Avatar drivers, technology, being picked on by older Na’vi.
An Interesting Fact: Lu’ Taw wears a dagger made from the fang of a thanator on his right thigh. He also learned how to scare off smaller predators, such as viperwolves, by mimicking the distress call of an adolescent thanator.
Clan Member?: No --Ikran's Appearance: N/P --Ikran's Personality: N/P
Name: Tingay (Truth)
Age: 34
Gender: Female
Physical Appearance: Sleek and powerful for a female, Tingay is one of the more successful hunters in the Clan. During the battle to save the Tree of Souls she had been one of the warriors called to be part of the dire horse ground assault (her first Ikran was killed when Hometree collapsed as it was unable to escape the branches in time). Her left cheek, shoulder and side are scarred from the encounter but she managed to survive the secondary infections through the aid of Jake’s advanced antibiotics.
Relationship Status: Single, though she was married but lost her mate in the ground assault.
Personality: Tingay is brave, wise, and gentle. Though she values knowledge, she holds wisdom in higher regards and teachers others through parables or quests.
Bio/Info: Since she never had children of her own, Tingay took Lu’ Taw under her wing and began his training. She has since then become both his instructor and adopted mother. She can sense his enthusiasm and his desire to be made a warrior but feels there is still more he needs to discover about himself before he is give that honor.
Three Likes: Teaching Lu’ Taw and other youngsters about the deeper means of life and how survive Pandora, flying with Solace, playing music
Three Dislikes: Detests arrogance, laziness, and mockery.
An Interesting Fact: She enjoys studying human art and talking with Norm about the various sights of Pandora.
Clan Member?: Yes --Ikran's Appearance: Dark teal with light blue flecks. --Ikran's Personality: Solace is much like her rider in temperament and even trusted Tingay enough to tolerate having Lu’Taw fly in Tingay’s lap when she needed to have the young child come with her on long trips that would other wise been too dangerous riding on a dire horse. The animal received its name after its generous affection and trust help Tingay overcome the loss of her former mate and Ikran companion. The two have become very close and though Solace will no longer allow Lu’ Taw to ride her, she is not aggressive toward him if he seeks out her perch as a hiding place from the stresses of life.

Looking good everyone! I'm expecting my Pandoran guidebook in the mail soon, so I'll be able to provide knowledge not listed in any wikis (hopefully). (:

Cool! I'm really excited for this. (Do you know the typical way Na'vi are named? Their names mean something, the suffix denotes clan, etc...?) I'm into this movie but still don't know what a lot of things are called, but I'm picking it up. ^_^

I don't, actually. I don't think it matters, really. Again, I have yet to get the book, maybe it'll tell me more!
Oh, a note. They're housed at a smaller Hometree temporarily, until they can find a bigger one, since they're still a large tribe even though they lost many members. (:
YET ANOTHER NOTE. I'll be playing Neytiri, should she come into play. Anyone want to take Jakesully? :3

Phew! Okay, I wanted to practice my Na'vi artwork, so I drew the first four characters submitted. Any submitted after will be done as well, but at a later date. (: I was having fun with the hair styles and stripes. If they weren't specified in the description, I just did whatever. xD MarshaTi'NalyaLu'TawTingay

Character Sheet: Name: John MacLeod (Na'vi name: Maw'tsamsiyu) Age: 21 (Left earth at age 16, trip taking about 5 and 1/2 years) Gender: Male Physical Appearance: fc08.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2010/008/0/c/Me_as_a_Na__vi_Avatar_2_by_RyleVao.jpg* Relationship Status: Single Personality: Usually calm and sincere. Can be emotional at times. Doesn't talk often. Bio/Info: One of the youngest recruites to the "Avatar" project. During first link time the computer system malfunctioned and shut down, killing John's human body but leaving his mind (and his soul, I'd hope) in the Avatar body. This happened a couple days after Jake Sully had his first link time. John tried to persuade his superiors to let him go out and join Jake and Grace amidst the Na'vi, but he was too inexperienced, so he remained at the base and trained in both the Na'vi language and in physical skills. He was against the battle against the Na'vi and didn't take part in it, but after it had ended he was allowed to stay behind on Pandora and live with the Omaticaya Clan. He has not made the bond with an Ikran yet. Three Likes: The Na'vi people, Direhorses, & hunting. Three Dislikes: Guns, Fire, and Thanators. An Interesting Fact: John's Na'vi name means: Calm Warrior (or at least that's the approximate meaning) Clan Member?: Not yet --Direhorse's Appearance: Just your average Direhorse --Direhorse's Personality: Aggressive and restless, will throw you off unless you handle him correctly. *Note: The braid with his queue (bond thingy) is behind his back and not visible in this photo.

I don't wanna be nitpicky, but he'd be too young, even though you mentioned he's "one of the youngest". It takes six years to get from Earth to Pandora, and with a changing body, they wouldn't've been able to create an Avatar for him, assuming he left earth at around 13. Would it throw you off your game if you made him a few years older?
Other then that, it looks good. (:

Good idea. If Ryle likes it, that's what we can do. They can know eachother in the RP--I was wondering how she got in and out of her pod, actually--maybe he was there to help. But he's stuck in his Na'vi body, correct?
