Ardyn Adravendi

A kick to the shoulder from an angry moose cow never felt good. He’d lost out on that hunt, and as he limped into the Plains, he reflected that he should have prepared a bit better of a trap than he had done.

Ah well. He’d heal, and he’d learned a valuable lesson. He made his way to Eramaya’s hut, ears perking as he heard several female voices. Healer powwow-in-progress? As he came to the fence he peered over to see Eramaya in conversation with Legacy and Amory, and a flash of a tiny, cream-colored furred figure told him Noelle was in the group as well.

He called out with a sheepish grin as he entered the fenced-in area around Eramaya’s hut and let his haunches drop to the dirt, “Good afternoon, ladies… I seem to have gotten a good kick off a moose today. Anyone free to do some patching-up of a foolish King?”

Mirth touched his voice as he scanned the faces before him, knowing the ribbing and scolding he was in for, and accepting it as his lot with cheerful patience.

Ardyn's family (Red, Aurielle, Siblings, Valhalla) are allowed to crash threads, regardless of private tags.

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.
