( first round is for setting up and discussing the plan, plus leaving an opening for any non-Valhallans who get Lyr's message and want to join in. Hunt will start in the next round ^^)
He led the way toward the ravine, ears alert. He paused long enough to send Lyr out with a message for any wolves he might find in the area—Valhalla was hunting an elephant and would shar a portion of the kill with any who helped bring it down.
Should they be successful, such a beast would have Valhalla stocked for a long time, and there would be more than enough to feed those who weren’t members of the pack.
Lunira and Sädir slipped away ahead of the group, scouting ahead for the elephant, and Ardyn chose a place on the ridge on Valhalla’s side. It was the same side as Lyr had reported the beast to be, and this would be a good staging point for the healers to set up while the hunters headed off to do hunt the elephant down.
While he waited for the group to stop and unload their gear, he listened, both for the sounds of a large beast, and for any signs that Lyr had found some extra paws to assist in the hunt.
Walk ---- "Speak" ---- "Labhair an Sean-Teanga." ---- "Hear" ---- Think |
Ardyn at first glance is as black as can be imagined with a raven sheen.
Closer inspection proves that he shimmers in fire tones in every hair on his hide right down to his lashes.
More obviously, he glows like a bed of coals and flames with every movement and brush of fur. His tail is usually wagging, so blazes like a torch.
His adult teeth are in and his saber canines have grown to their full length (see profile). His mane and tail hair have grown to full length, as well as being lightweight and easily buffeted by breezes.
A look at his front paws will give the impression of hands, with his dew claw dropped low and lengthened into a functioning thumb, and his toes elongated into fingers. He has retractable, solid black cat-like claws on every paw.
Ardyn has developed a glowing mast of intricate markings in fire and ice colors over his face, symmetrical over the last seasons of Year 17 (see profile for details). During hunts or raids/sieges, he will smudge them out with black soot to cover the glow, otherwise, they are bright enough to note at first direct glance at his face. Not all his artwork currently portrays the mask markings.
He is also often bedecked in beads, small bells, feathers in blues, ribbons and braids thanks to the Ooze Event of Halloween 2021, and the Coathanger item that he got. The accessories generally are seen most in his mane and tail hair. He removes the brighter items and bells for hunts or battle.
