Character: Cain
Series: Utahime
Character Age: No canon age, but probably around 17 or so.
Canon: Some magical countries have defenses like barriers or mystical walls or magic lakes that only allow passage across during a full moon. Not the country in Utahime - they have Song Princesses. These women sing every night and their song grants the area around them protection. A Song Princess always has a beautiful voice and is always female. Well. Almost always female. Cain happens to be, as far as he or anyone else knows, the only male Song Princess.
One might expect a princess to be reserved or polite. Cain is neither of these. His natural temperament is snappish and prone to quick insults (a childhood friend has the honor of being called a bug, praying mantis and parasite - these are all "endearing insults"), so you might say he's a little guarded and a touch angry. Cain is also a learned con artist, with the ability to sparkle like a host and make passingly cutting remarks about others' talents or lack thereof. Don't mistake his moments of egotistical suaveness as being calm and collected, though. Cain tends more towards the scale of "flaily" and easily flustered than stoic.
Sample Post:
Forty-seven minutes, thirty seconds. Forty-seven minutes, forty seconds. Forty-seven minutes, fifty seconds - Augh! What did that damn bug say? I'll meet you there, Cain! That's what he said! And you know what? He's not here. Making me wait around in a place like this, expecting to see his stupid glasses poking around from behind that weird wiggling tree-thing. Weird wiggling tree-thing that wears clothes. Sure, why not! This is what I get for letting him pick the place to meet. I guess I should be glad he didn't pick a hornet's nest or mudhole for us to meet in, but this is almost as bad! What's with this place? I should have turned back at the "Welcome to the Happiest Place on Earth" sign. Or, I guess, the swamp and the insects and the I don't even know what that is and the - hello, ladies!
Ahaha, no, no, I wasn't critiquing your home at all! I was just giving it a good look over. They say that having a keen eye is one of the first pieces of diplomacy! Ah. No. I'm not that kind of diplomat. Really, maybe it's better if we leave it at that, because I would definitely not want to navigate through any sort of political waters with people named T. . . Turgid or. So! Moving on!
I'm just a traveler passing through. I seem to have gotten lost, so if you just point me in the right direction I'll be on my way. Not that I'm abandoning you or anything, my fine green-skinned companions. . . I'm just. . . in a bit of a rush! You are unusually insistent. . . A rush to spend more time with you, of course! But they say idle hands do the devil's work! And give you hairy palms. So to avoid that, why don't we play a little game?
If I win, I would certainly appreciate some help and if you win, I can give you. . . uh. What?! I must have misheard you. . . ah, yes, that makes more sense, and if you win I'll let you pick my brains. Hahaha, silly me thinking you said eat my brains. . . Right! So the way this works is I have two die, count them: one, two. I put them in this cup here - and shake it - and turn the cup upside down on the ground, like so. You try to guess if the sum total of the numbers showing are even or odd! So, have at it!
Since you seem a little preoccupied with that. . . sore, rash, skin condition thing there, I'll go first and take a wild guess: evens! And look at that, I won! I know for sure that I'm shocked. Now, if you could just help me out here, I'm looking for the capita - woah! Woah! Hey! Ladies, please! While I'm flattered you'd want to invite me to your after-hours party, I'm still a kid and that's no place for kids, right ♥ ?
Dammit! No means no! Moldhead! Rotten pumpkin face! Garden variety weed! Slime covered snot blob! . . . HELP, HELP, I'M IN NEED OF AN ADULT!
