Name: Tsume Tanaka 'Tes' (basically pronounced just like Tesumi, it means claws/talons)
Gender: female
Race: Voskon
Age: 19-almost 20
Hair: Dark, almost black. Its generally straight, sort of 'wind blown' and stops at her elbows, she doesn't like wearing it up unless its in her way when she fights.
Eyes: Tawny, golden eyes just like her animal form.
Physical Description: Tes is about 5'5 in height and her body type is slender, but a little muscular. She tend to get skinnier after long trips in her animal form, she unsure why this is perhaps because it take more energy or something. Her movements are very cautious and catlike, making her usually graceful looking. She likes dark clothing, and is almost never seen without her black clock. She has a fetish for boots and leather, (her favorite outfit includes a pair of tall boots and a leather jacket ) Her 'royal' upbringing gave her a taste of only expensive things and she is disgusted by cheap garments. She also wears a few gold necklaces, bracelets and anklets. She likes how they match her eyes, but recently sence she has been trying to lie low she reduced the amount of gold she wears to two simple bracelets given to her by her brother and lover.
Personality: She is naturally a bit cautious. Her feline instincts normally rule her mind, especially after transforming for long periods of time. Because she is a lion, she can be very aggressive when pushed. She has quite a temper too after you get to know her, but it take a very persistent person to break through her mask. Tes prefers to stay in the background until the opportune moment, and she is a bit aloof. Because she hasn't heard much from her homeland, she is still unsure if anyone is after her or her brother.
Occupation (Human only): none
Animal form (Voskon only): Puma, Mountain Lion, whatever you want to call it.
Other information: Tes is a Voskon from the western region. Voskon's run their lands in a somewhat different manner than human, they rely more on their animal instincts. So large clans, like the one she came from, are rare in the West as felines tend to be solitary creature. These larger clans where consider almost equal to what humans call 'royalty', Tes's clan was highly respected for their strict rules and customs and the majority of the West was 'under their command' in a way. But large clans weren't just uncommon due to their preference to being alone, the Westerners where prone to breaking into fights which often escalated into larger wars. The Tsume clan did their best to keep things in order, writing treaty's and arranging marriages in attempt to keep the peace. Tes was one of the unfortunate daughters of Shikon Tsume who was known for giving his daughters away to receive more allies. The knowledge that her family was practically giving her away infuriated her and she only stayed with them due to the strong attachment she had with her older brother, Edward. Still she panicked at times and took long trips away from home, sometimes going over the borders of the East Voskons. It was on one of these trips she met her lover, Kado. Kado was from the East region and was part of a wolf clan. Though she was cautious at first, the way Kado lived enthralled her. She loved how they worked, hunted and lived together in packs. Kado was also in a 'royal' in his own way, of course the term meant something completely different for his clan. He was very determined to take Tes as his mate, despite their differences. His family was skeptical at first, but once they saw how different Tes was from other Westerners, they learned to love her as one of the wolves. Unfortunately her youngest sister followed her out on one of her trips and saw, relived Tes's double life not only to her father but to her fiance. Her father was livid, but nothing close to the fury her fiance's clan felt. They blamed the Tsume clan for the betrayal and declared war with them and the Easterners. Tes decided the best thing to do was run away, she didn't want to bring a war to her clan (they where still her family, even if they disowned her) or her beloved wolves. She left the morning of the great battle, hoping to slip out before any blood was shed but Kado caught her and sent her over the border into the protection of his clan. She tried to convince him to stay with her, or run away with her but Kado was proud and wanted to defend his love and his family.
Kado never made it to the battle and was assassinated by Wesrern spies (from Tsume's own clan) who where waiting right at the border line. The battled continued as planned, but Kado's entire clan decided to join the battle in Kado's honor, leaving Tes unguarded on the East side. It was said to be the bloodiest battle in Voskon history, with not one survivor. But that wasn't technically true however, in the midst of the battle Edward ran off and met with Tes who was preparing to join the battle, to avenge her true love's death. Edward convinced her he meant no harm, and that Kado would not have wanted her to fight so both of them escaped and went far away from both regions. Heartbroken and lonely both travelled throughout the lands for a year, occasionally catching bits and pieces of news from their homeland. Until recently, they had never left each others sides but for some unknown reason they were ambushed and had to go separate ways. Tes has not heard from her dear brother sence and is now doing everything in her power to find the only person left who has ever cared for her.

(Is this too much? I can cut it down if you'd like. Heh, I've never done an rp outside of Zanzibur on E-R. He he, I really don't know anything about medieval things either. When I saw the word 'Elve' my first reaction was 'Oh, like little elf's with pointy ears and that work for Santa?' lol I'm an idiot! )
