So my old gal Kairi Valentine & Ares Saxe had a bit too much of Ares' homemade moonshine and whoops, wouldn't ya know it, she fell pregnant even in her old age! Ares is currently with the pirates, while Kairi is likely going to be in Valhalla to live out her final days among relatives. She is more than likely going to die shortly after giving birth to her kids (possibly even as soon as they're born, honestly), and will mostly be reared by Valhalla, however, Ares will know about them and will likely visit once he works something out with Kairi/Valhalla. Haven't worked out details on this yet, but it's possible the kids will go back and forth between the two packs to spend time with both their father and his side of the family, as well as spend time with their Adravendi side. Ares will make every effort to be there for his kids, and at the turn of 1yr, should they choose it, should be likely to join the Pirates (or wherever Ares is by then) or stay in Valhalla.

Adoption rules & info
1. Pups can be any alignment ranging from neutral - lawful good. Preferably no evil alignments unless ic development takes them that way. Sure Ares is a little chaotic and selfish and a bit of a jerk, but he's not evil in the slightest. If you know anything about the Saxe/Imperialis line, they all just kinda did their thing, while Kairi's side was more on the lighter spectrum.

2. Sizes can range from small to dire. Kairi is 29" while Ares is 44". Builds can be anywhere between light - heavy.

3. Colors that are likely to run on Kairi's side are creams, whites, russets, reds (from the free part of the site's allowable reds), browns, silvers, greys, and heterochromia. Eye colors can include blue, yellow, green, purple, pink, silver, or combinations thereof. Ares' side can go wild! He has star/galaxy-themed stuff from his Aeris side, slate blues, purples, etc., and that lovely sheen from the Imperialis/Saxe side!

4. Kairi & Ares' immediate family can be found below:
Zell Valentine (Father)
Faite Adravendi(Mother)
Torin Adravendi-Valentine (brother)
Breasal Adravendi-Valentine (brother)
Jaidah Valentine (Sister)
And of course, there was Kairi's Twin brother. They looked exactly alike with the only difference being their eye colors were opposite one another (Rory's were left eye blue, right eye yellow).
As well as the rest of the Adravendi line ;D

Ares' family
Chaos Saxe (father)
Leto Aeris (mother)
Aquila Aeris (brother)
Lyra Saxe (sister)
And of course the rest of the Imperialis, Saxe, & Aeris line c:

5. Plot-wise, absolutely no rape, incest, underage sex, etc. No psycho, cannibalistic, sadistic, or super nasty evil, etc, etc. both Saxe & Imperialis will have a big issue with this and will not hesitate to end this! Same goes for the Adravendi side!

6. Activity is a must! I want to see at least 4 posts a month. Unless you have a valid absence, that's fine, but after two months of inactivity, or if the character is set inactive, I will reclaim it. Once you hit 100 posts, however, the character is yours to keep!

7. Designs provided by me must stay on Ardent, with no exceptions!!! Designs provided belong to me since I paid for them, however, if you choose a design you absolutely love, please dm me and I might consider selling the design. You are, however, welcome to use your own designs!

8. There's unlikely to be any trans chars in this litter (sorry!) Imperialis & Saxes just didn't really roll that way.

9. Discounts & mutations include but are not limited to:
25% off height up to 42" from Ares
Saber/serrated fangs from Ares
25% off blue or whatever other unnatural colors Ares has.

10. I have decided to go with the name Phoenix for my pup! I'm not gonna picky with names here, so choose whatever you feel might fit with them!

OOC name: KingKurt
Character name: Sora or Alekai
Design: Take a look I'm so sorry
Appearance:
28"
Light build
(May or may not get serrated teeth budget permit)

Sora might be small but it has never bothered him a bit. A colorful array of milky off-white covering his face paws and underbelly, though this being the most least interesting part of him. Covering the first portion is a dark blue, nearly navy marking climbing evenly on his forelimbs and his back legs. Quickly this is swallowed up by his deep red the color splashing over his back in a saddle marking - a dark red core sitting between his shoulder blades. A deep blue pouring out from underneath the red reaching towards the end of his tail, the next layer after being a pale teal.

Covering his body are small flecks of the same off white as his base. Although their appearance may resemble that of the twinkling stars Sora considers it a sign of the galaxy inside him despite them just being a flecking of some kind. To top it off are his dully lilac eyes. Although they lack a shine they still hold a bright break against the rest of his frame. Small but mighty Sora will be fast on his feet having to rely more on that then he strength due to his size.

Alignment: Chaotic Neutral
Personality:

"Daddy's little trouble maker"

Independent | Mischievous | Chaotic | Clever

At a start Sora will always be for all intents and purposes a prankster. He likes to make others laugh and more importantly himself, though not out of selfishness at least he doesn't think so in his young age. Always trying to find a way to trick another, especially his siblings, this can come from pranks to gross things whatever he thinks is best. Loving to learn this little crafter will always have a need for knowledge. Sora will enjoy doing things and doing them alone as much as within a group. Confident on himself Sora doesn't often feel lonely and wants to seek answers to the life that was given to him. If this path leads down some fun paths then he seems to simply go with the flow. Though one thing is for certain, family is for life and he will always seek their approval and acceptance.

Sora is a little bit of a handful at times. In his young age he enjoys following his father around most of all, his pack is his family sure but the idea of being a pirate? It's ingrained in his head. He tries to think smarter not harder and listens well to those he respects. Keyword, respect, often times Sora can be a cannonball of decisions. Why not? What if I did or said this? Something that at first might get him into some trouble but all in good tame fun. As he grows older he'll be able to harness this skill to his advantage. Spying, interrogating for information. Most of all he'll enjoy rough housing and the idea of being a great warrior.

Potential plans, ideas for plots, etc:

I want Sora to be in love with the idea of freedom. In which doing his own thing but also he wants to stick close to his father. He will always be greatful for his birth pack and spending time in both. Yet he loves the pirate life style and the sins that go with it. I'm really curiously where he will go iccly as his pranks could go either way with Valhalla's influence. With a love for fighting and a love for intellect I want to consider Sora a potential jack of all trades close to the Saxe side of the family.

OOC name: Lin
Character name: Chióni or Yuki (Both mean snow)
Design:
Appearance:
Height: 34”
Build: Light
Mutations: N/A

reference

The girl is crafted from a painter’s image of winter’s first snowfall. She is a beauty of contrast. Chióni’s crown and maw are masked in a pure white, unblemished by any marking. This pure color spreading down her cheeks, across her neck and narrow chest. The pristine hue continues to flow down the nape of her neck only to elegantly fade. Like drifting snow, it gently crosses her belly, dissipating into a mist. Her slender forelimbs are coated in this purity as if she went shoulder deep into the snowdrifts.

Where the icy tones end, her slender figure welcomes some warmth. Upon her shoulders rests a cream that adds a warmer touch to her otherwise frozen features. This cream runs alongside the chilled ice and snow upon her belly. Yet where the pure tone dissipates, the warm cream continues. It stretches along her underbelly dusting her hackles and the underside of her thick-furred tail. Upon her back rests a saddle of charcoal which carefully blends into the cream. The shadows reach downwards upon her slender hind limbs. Charcoal tones deepen in tone upon her knees as well as her paws and ankles, fading to a lighter dusting upon her thighs. The darker ink flows from her spine down upon the top of her feathery tail.

What truly sets the child apart are the seemingly glowing flecks of snow which drift across her dark saddle. These flecks fall in a flowing pattern, as if snow were gently falling upon the waiting earth of her pelt. Optics shine a crystalline blue upon the purity of her sharp features only adding to the cold beauty of her face.

Alignment: Chaotic Good
Personality: Independent, Confident, Rebellious, Free-willed, Unpredictable, Sharp-tongued, Intelligent, Kind*, Supportive

Chióni is a child that doesn’t like to rely on others. In fact, she is quite fine figuring things out on her own. Some may see this as stubbornness, and perhaps a part of her is. However, Chi is more so independent rather than stubborn. The young babe’s independent nature doesn’t simply display itself as problem solving, but also in the way she acts towards others. The child will not form her opinions of something, or someone, based on another’s thoughts and feelings towards whatever, or whoever, it may be. She will take an open stance and form her own thoughts and opinions for herself. Chióni is hard to manipulate in this way.

Confidence comes off Chióni in waves. The girl is often sure of herself, and knows how to show it. She doesn’t look to others for approval, and though she may be praised for a job well done, Chi will never seek it. If she receives praise, it’s not because the child is actively looking for it. Some may see confidence as pride, however, true confidence is not connected to pride. Chióni is not proud, nor is she haughty. The babe is happy to admit when she is wrong, and more than willing to correct herself. Rather than being too proud to admit when she is wrong, the girl will take it as a learning experience and grow from it.

The girl is not one to follow the rules. She doesn’t take well to being controlled, and loves having her freedom. If that freedom is threatened, Chióni will take actions against those which threatened it. The babe will speak up when she doesn’t agree with something. She will also stand up for another if the rules are unreasonably against them. Her tongue can be sharp, but it often speaks the truth. Due to this, Chi is capable of leading others with her new creative ideas that can go against the old ways. Chi can be a trendsetter that follows the beat of her own drum.

Family, and herself, always come first. However, the child’s friends come in close second. She is supportive in the many things they do, a kindness melded into it. However, she will not put up with stupidity, and her sharp tongue will take over. Nevertheless, Chióni is often the voice of reason. She just has her own way of showing it.

Potential plans, ideas for plots, etc: I was thinking that maybe she could be the voice of reason for Phoenix whenever he gets himself into trouble. I really like the idea that them becoming a team. She could be the ice to his fire, her patience to his temper. The brains to his act-first, think later, attitude. It could make for an interesting sibling bond.

She is very freedom loving, so if Valhalla feels too limiting for her, she might leave to join her father and his crew. With this in mind, she might be starry-eyed with the stories her father could tell them, further pushing her need for freedom from the restraints of a "normal" pack. Though I mentioned that she isn't easily influenced by opinions, she might eventually like to see what his pack is actually like.
