My grandfather had to bring my father back.. after my mother realized she was with child.. and it was a metis
Sarah Runningfox (Jun 30, 2010 12:01:10 AM)
What did your sept do to them?
Horus Alexander (Jun 30, 2010 12:01:50 AM)
because of whom my grandfather was.. and what my father had previously done. it was light. they where to raise me.. and their reputation was soiled
Sarah Runningfox (Jun 30, 2010 12:03:48 AM)
My tribe....has, in the past reacted by how traditionalist the sept is. In some septs the parents were killed, and the metis as a ward of the sept. But where I came from, both parents lost rank, the mother was left to raise the cub, the father was exiled to a rather far off sept so .....things would not repeat.
Horus Alexander (Jun 30, 2010 12:04:49 AM)
to kill the metis child in my tribe is almost as much of a sin as making one
Sarah Runningfox (Jun 30, 2010 12:06:01 AM)
My tribe doesn't kill the cub. It wasn't there fault.
Sarah Runningfox (Jun 30, 2010 12:06:56 AM)
Though the ones who exhibit imbalances of the mind, or weaknesses of the spirit often do not return from the Rite of Passage. Uktena tests them.
Sarah Runningfox (Jun 30, 2010 12:07:24 AM)
But still once past the Rite of Passage the metis among the Uktena stands as a full Uktena.
Horus Alexander (Jun 30, 2010 12:09:23 AM)
*he nods a bgit*
Sarah Runningfox (Jun 30, 2010 12:09:31 AM)
What was your Rite of Passage like?
Horus Alexander (Jun 30, 2010 12:10:53 AM)
well different then what you would think of.. first i had to memorize a message.. and deliver it word for word to a far off sept... and find my own way there
Sarah Runningfox (Jun 30, 2010 12:14:12 AM)
I had to interprete a dream vision, once I did that I was made to locate and liberate a Fetish that was in the private collection of a human who...had no idea what it was except old and rare. I broke in and retrieved it. When I returned it to the elders I was given the name Talisman Seeker.
Horus Alexander (Jun 30, 2010 12:14:47 AM)
that was only the first part of it
Sarah Runningfox (Jun 30, 2010 12:14:53 AM)
Oh....
Sarah Runningfox (Jun 30, 2010 12:15:14 AM)
That was all of mine...give or take an umbral trip with trickster spirits that kept trying to get me lost on the way back.
Horus Alexander (Jun 30, 2010 12:15:42 AM)
on the second.. i had to help a spirit of the dead.. it was a spirit of a child.. whom wanted thier favorite toy.. so they may rest

Horus Alexander (Jun 30, 2010 12:19:13 AM)
i found where the child lived.. broke in.. stole the toy, and a few otehr items to make it look like a normal break in (to this day.. they are baffled why anybody would steal a flyswatter and a bunch of other useless things)
Sarah Runningfox (Jun 30, 2010 12:23:21 AM)
I understand with Owl as a totem we will be expected to assist ghosts?
Horus Alexander (Jun 30, 2010 12:23:52 AM)
i do not know.. nor would i take a guess.. owl will lead us to where he needs us
Sarah Runningfox (Jun 30, 2010 12:27:11 AM)
Can you tell me more about Owl as your tribe knows him? I know hes a wise totem and guards the lands of the dead. I've delt with death spirits before to make certain talens so have a rough familiarity with some of his brood...but, how do you Striders know him?
Horus Alexander (Jun 30, 2010 12:28:16 AM)
my grandfather can answer that much better then i can.. i know owl has been with us since the beginning.. but.. much of my education to the tribal ways as well as the tribal totem is.. stunted ..
Horus Alexander (Jun 30, 2010 12:28:36 AM)
my father.. considered me a waste of air.. but could not end me.. so he did the next best things
Horus Alexander (Jun 30, 2010 12:28:39 AM)
(thing
Sarah Runningfox (Jun 30, 2010 12:30:32 AM)
Humm perhaps Neith could help with my questions. Perhaps she can help with your stunted education as well.
Horus Alexander (Jun 30, 2010 12:32:22 AM)
maybe
Sarah Runningfox (Jun 30, 2010 12:35:15 AM)
Drunken Fianna got a pass last night because he was a new arrival. Tell me if he threatens to mess with our wings or says anything else disparagingly about Owl. If I must I will teach him a lesson on respect.
Sarah Runningfox (Jun 30, 2010 12:35:35 AM)
And if Neith wishes to go Ahroun on him...............it's OK.
Horus Alexander (Jun 30, 2010 12:38:01 AM)
if he messes wtih out wings.. i will geld him
Sarah Runningfox (Jun 30, 2010 12:38:42 AM)
Let the Ahroun geld him...it'll be funnier.
Horus Alexander (Jun 30, 2010 12:38:56 AM)
but it will be ironic.. if the metis does it
Sarah Runningfox (Jun 30, 2010 12:42:23 AM)
Humm...probably should keep it to challenge protocals. We don't want to anger the elders. But the fool is drunk most of the time and wanting to hit things with an axe....he'll probably agree to combat easily.
Sarah Runningfox (Jun 30, 2010 12:42:57 AM)
As an example of a ragabash I find the Fianna very disapointing.
Horus Alexander (Jun 30, 2010 12:43:09 AM)
*he shuddlers a bit as if s a bad memory crossed his mind*
Sarah Runningfox (Jun 30, 2010 12:44:14 AM)
You OK?
Horus Alexander (Jun 30, 2010 12:44:31 AM)
you more or less described my father.. there
Sarah Runningfox (Jun 30, 2010 12:47:40 AM)
Your father was an alchoholic?
Horus Alexander (Jun 30, 2010 12:48:02 AM)
and abusive... to both me and my mother.. though i took the blunt of it
Sarah Runningfox (Jun 30, 2010 12:50:14 AM)
*snorts* A Beer now an then is fine....but I've seen too many Alchoholics on the rez. I don't let myself go there and I certainly disaprove of it.
Horus Alexander (Jun 30, 2010 12:50:46 AM)
i do not touch alchol because of him
Sarah Runningfox (Jun 30, 2010 12:52:32 AM)
Heard metis can't get drunk anyway. You metabolize things differently even in homid form.
Horus Alexander (Jun 30, 2010 12:55:05 AM)
and if we can.. and i end up being like him when i am drunk.. i rather not chance it.. i have other things on my conscience.. besides what might happen if i loose control.....
Sarah Runningfox (Jun 30, 2010 12:56:16 AM)
*she nods*
Sarah Runningfox (Jun 30, 2010 12:57:10 AM)
Your father sounds like a bastard.
Horus Alexander (Jun 30, 2010 12:57:33 AM)
he was... that was my third test, during my rite of passage.. to slay a wyrm beast
Sarah Runningfox (Jun 30, 2010 12:59:54 AM)
Humm....what sort of beast?
Horus Alexander (Jun 30, 2010 1:01:16 AM)
my father. he let his hatred for me taint him.. forgetting the ways of Gaia.. and moving to liive in seclusion.. when i found him.. he had taken the lives of no less then five metis cubs... he was insane with hate.. if it was not for that fact he was unthinking.. i wouldnt have been able to defeat him
Sarah Runningfox (Jun 30, 2010 1:02:29 AM)
Your...father was the wyrm beast?
Horus Alexander (Jun 30, 2010 1:02:53 AM)
yes
Sarah Runningfox (Jun 30, 2010 1:05:13 AM)
Good Gaia.
Sarah Runningfox (Jun 30, 2010 1:05:45 AM)
Why is my childhood and upbringing always sunshine and rainbows compared to my contemporaries?
Horus Alexander (Jun 30, 2010 1:06:30 AM)
i know not why.. but.. if it was not for my grandfather.. i would be .. close to an uneducated twit

(haha) *so the kinfolk would pull his truck up to whereever would be appropriate, the one handed, badly scar'd up kinfolk would get out, giving the area a hard look out of his cold eyes, he would head toward the bawn, not to far, but far enough to be noticed, knowing the accute hearing of lupus he would simply speak his introduction, no need to yell when speaking will surfice well enough.* Mark OMalley, gallian kinfolk of the fianna.

*the two are randomly walking the grounds*
Mark OMalley (Jun 30, 2010 1:15:46 AM)
*he simply waits for a guardian or some such.*
Horus Alexander (Jun 30, 2010 1:16:32 AM)
sounds like somebody is nearby.. .should we investigate?
Sarah Runningfox (Jun 30, 2010 1:16:58 AM)
((I figure they question you at the gate, do there thing and then let you in, telling you the elders are at the manor house, if/when they are available))
Horus Alexander (Jun 30, 2010 1:17:09 AM)
( or he got lost)

Horus Alexander (Jun 30, 2010 1:17:53 AM)
worse case.. we howl for a guardian to come and get them.. or if it si a wyrm beast.. we slay it
Mark OMalley (Jun 30, 2010 1:18:53 AM)
*he looks around as he patiently waits, or talks to a guardian or both.*
Sarah Runningfox (Jun 30, 2010 1:20:17 AM)
You seem lost. The main driveway is back at the west side of the property... *looks at Mark*
Horus Alexander (Jun 30, 2010 1:21:25 AM)
*he walks up.. doing sense wyrm* (want me to roll)
Mark OMalley (Jun 30, 2010 1:21:44 AM)

*shes not hostile, more like intensely curious and puzzled*
Mark OMalley (Jun 30, 2010 1:37:33 AM)
sometimes the spirits will deem a kinfolk worthy enough to impart part of themselves to the kinfolk.
Horus Alexander (Jun 30, 2010 1:37:57 AM)
it is possible that Gaia has a mission for him.. that requires him to have access to such things.. but. that would be for somebody much wiser then i to determine
Emilie Summers (Jun 30, 2010 1:38:56 AM)
I ain't never head of a kinfolk like that before
Horus Alexander (Jun 30, 2010 1:40:23 AM)

Sarah Runningfox (Jun 30, 2010 1:41:24 AM)
