Subject: Yikers, can I remember them all? I'll try. Oh, Sash, I'm going to update all my species descriptions, K? The last ones were rather incomplete. One more thing, Arana is most definately the last of her kind, so no one else can join as a Spinner.

Species Name: Sylpha

Height at Shoulder: Aprox. 5' 5" to 6'3", though taller ones are rare.

Coloration: Deep colors of gemstones, or live forest things. All the fur will be roughly the same hue, but the shock, wings, and tail tuft will be lighter than the body. Eyes are the same hue, but darker and deeper. The underbelly, throat, and two patches running up from the throat, behind the jawbone, and onto the cheek are all white.

Temperment: Will vary, naturally, depending on the individual, but as a whole, they are sociable. In general, Sylphas have more nerve than you would think by looking at them.

Description: Sylphas are a furry, winged, bi-pedal race from the planet Shrya. They have softly shaped faces, large eyes that match the tone of their fur, but are darker and deeper, pink noses, long pointed ears, and a shock of fur that sticks out from the back of their heads to just past their ear-tips. Their wings attatch just behind the shoulder blades. While winged, the Sylphas do not often fly, for while they possess the ability, they were not built well for it, and long period of flight severely tire them. The wings serve better to increase running speed by making them more aerodynamic. The Sylpha body is built like that of more common bipeds, standing upright on two feet, arms just longer than the trunk, and working hands with opposable thumbs. The hands and feet only have two digits, however, not counting the thumbs. Sylphas have no claws to speak of, just toughened nails that grow within the skin and only poke out at the tips. The tail is usually just as long as the legs, and ends in a tuft of soft fur. Sylphas can run at great speeds with the aid of their wings, up to 120 mph if they are strong, and swim fairly well. The feathers of their wings trap air which bouys them, and they can breathe it if need be.

---------------------------------------

Species Name: Kre 'ek

Height at Shoulder: Approx. 5'9" 6'6"

Coloration: Dull earth tones, with occactional splashes of bright primary color. Yellow eyes.

Temperment: Silent, watchful, and gruff. Will be plain and to the point, unless they see reason to deceive. Ususally quite ruthless towards those they see as inferior, and they toady to those who they see as superior, though that can change in a blink if they get the upper hand. With most Kre 'ek, the ends justify the means. They will do whatever it takes to get where they want to go, and see nothing wrong with that. It is just a mentality. You need to be sure you know who you are dealing with when handling a Kre 'ek, most likely they won't see things the way you do.

Description: Kre 'ek are like a species evolution forgot to finish, so they compensated with fantastic technological advances. They look like a cross between an amphibian, reptillian, and avian race, though they are very much flightless. Their faces are long and bony, with luminous yellow eyes at the sides of their heads. Their bodies are shaped like that of a scrawny raptor (well, scrawny for a raptor) with short forelimbs with long hooked claws and opposable thumbs. Their backwards-bending legs are strong and powerful, and their hind-feet are wide and splayed for swimming and superior balance. Two horny spikes stick back from their heels (the backwards "knee") and they have thick, stubby tails. Their entire front and back are armored with thick, dry scales, while their sides and most of their face are covered in elastic, wet, amphibian flesh. It is only this soft flesh that will have bright color in it. Kre 'ek are suited to damp climates, though they can survive in dryer ones for a time. They carry a lot of moisture around with them, and are consiquently fairly slimy, plus they have a rather . . . unpleasant marshy odor.

------------------------------------

Species: Spinner

As Arana is the only one of her kind, and has not personally disclosed much about herself, this need not be known.
