[Point in time taken from canon] Chapter 47
[Background] When Cooro was still in his mother's womb she died, but Cooro lived on, becoming a Crow +Animal and he was freed by the crows that ripped open his mothers carcus. He flew off with the crows who in his villages is believed to guide ones soul. But he could not fly for long and dropped down from the sky into the Kilter church. Here he grew up under the care of the Sister's and the teacher's of the church and around the other orphans staying there. As he grew up he got a lot of attention thanks to his coal black crow wings, and one man came and offered him a place in his Astra's +anima research center, this man's name was Fly. Having been born with an Anima Cooro didn't understand what it would have been like without it and with some apple's was persuaded to make a promise that the next time he came back to the center he would give up his wings. He also was sent on a mission to gather other +anima's and bring them to the research center in order to aid those who wanted Anima's and also Fly's goal to complete the Angel Blanca, a creature born in a underground lab and since have been getting anima's implanted within her.
Cooro met quite a few interesting people among his journey and helped many people out, although he would also at times steal from them or use those awful puppy dog eyes to guilt his way into their hearts and their pockets. We don't know the full extent of what happened on his journey before he came upon that circus that housed the great Mermaid Princess but we do know that at the beginning he was bent on helping the research Lab. He saved Husky from the Circus and managed to get the boy to agree to travel with him (Husky is the mermaid princess by the way, or should I say he's the Fish anima who got dressed as a girl?). Husky and Cooro traveled alone for a time until they gathered enough money to buy some clothes and food. But rather then entering a happy carefree village they ended up meeting the gang that was bent on taking over the town and digging up the towns biggest export! But the Gang had a bit of a problem, for a Bear + Anima protected the fields of flowers that the gang wanted to dig up. After dealing with the gang Husky, Cooro, and Senri (the bear +anima) moved on to the next village. This village had a problem themselves, but their problem was a band of thieving kids. Cooro actually admired their skill until they used it on his own group and stole his bread and Senri's most prized possession! But all turned out well because through this band of girls they ended up meeting a Bat Anima named Nana.
The four kids became inseparable, and Cooro over time chose to forget Fly and the Research Lab and instead of making friends with them to get their Anima's he started to feel that to be truly happy he just wanted to be with them. This was shown especially after they tried to leave him behind on a Apple Farm and as soon as he awoke he flew off in search of them, catching up rather quickly. They made more friends on their travels. They went through slavery, saved a king, took part in a Duel at a great Colosseum, and traveled through out the country of Austia and Soilando, as well as discovered many things about one another. The only one of the group who no one knew anything about in the end was Cooro. But although they felt something strange about him no one asked him about why he seemed...Different. For a long while Cooro hadn't thought about the research lab, to the point where he hadn't even recognized Fly's apprentice. But a sign of those lab coats showed up while Cooro and his friends were helping out a Swan Anima who was going to be captured. Now they are back on the road...With little worry on their minds except for their next meal. But when night comes Cooro is going to enter his deepest slumber yet, a slumber he can't escape.
[Personality] Cooro is always smiling and he's emotionally strong for a child. He fears nothing but he's not stupid enough to stay in harms way. He loves to help people and will almost always repay someone's kindness. He is his own person who does what he wants but he still fallows a strict moral code and a belief. He will always respect someone's wishes and if that wish is for him to leave them alone, he will. He loves people! He's very talkative and expressive, making him a people person. But although he's usually a good kid he will steal for his survival and trick people out of their money. But rather then steal, he prefers to work. But...if he's around food ...make sure to remind him of this fact.
He can seem rather naive at times. This is due to his strong optimistic and carefree way of acting (And just because he is naive at times). Unless he's really sad or worried he always acts like this, even if it's a mask. It's easy to tell when he's really unsettled by something. He tends to space out a lot and be rather quiet...quiet for him at least, he'll also wrap his wings around himself in a protective manner. But it's hard to bring him down. Only things that do is when his friends are down, or distressed, or if he's left by them, and also when he's faced with a promise he wished he never committed himself too.
He's a very good friend who is loyal and tends to bond groups together. He tends to make people smile just by being in the room. He is also a good listener and is supportive. But sometimes when he's seen with his black wings out people become scared of him calling him an Black Angel and the Messenger of Death. Cooro doesn't care though. His teachers and the sisters at the church he grew up at, had told him how both messengers of god and messengers of death are needed, that and he knew he wasn't such a thing. He is Cooro, and he is perfectly happy to be Cooro. He is happiest just being with his friends. But having been born an +anima he never fully understood the feelings of other +anima's who either just gained their Animas or lost them. This caused a naivety that would cause him problems when he promises his wings away...A promise he regretted later on and wished to avoid having to fulfill.
I don't think anything can embarrass Cooro, and even when something should he usually makes it into a joke or just doesn't notice it. He loves flying and admires peoples ways of living whether it's a band of children's technique of pick pocketing or a guy's dream to fly. The only thing he is more interested in then people is FOOD! And he eats a lot...mostly apples. You can't ever take away his apples not even when he's sound asleep! His favorite desert is Apple Pie! The thing he hates the most is people worrying about him, which is probably why he usually has a smile on even at the worst of times, and why he keeps his past and his worries more to himself. He loves to be anywhere, although he's not to fond of betting stuck in storms or into a giant snow drift. He likes to explore and learn new things. He tends to sleep through everything though...he could see a ghost and still end up in a deep slumber the next second. Also if you have something you're trying to hide like being a “Mermaid Princess” ...yeah...it's not going to work when Cooro's around unless you tell him clearly and even then it might not work...but he'll keep deeper secrets.
[Abilities] He can sense other +anima and also has Black crow wings.
[Other important stuff] He carries around a small Iron ax.
[Sample post]
[First Person] - What were you doing before now? I was eating a delicious apple! Before then I was working to get some money for mooore apples.
- If someone provoked or attacked you, what would you do? Fly away, why bother getting into a fight?
- Would you consider yourself a power hungry individual? I'm usually hungry but I didn't know you could eat power...
- Someone comes to you to ask for the time. How would you respond? Sure! I don't mind, maybe I'll even get something out of it.
- Someone is trying to rob you! What do you do? Get whatever they stole back and knock them out.
- If I offered to save your soul for a price, would you go with it and why? Save my soul? From what? I don't have any money....But I need my soul...Ahhh....
- Do you stand up against authority, go against all odds, and if you could, pierce the heavens with your fighting spirit? If not, would you if you could? .....Can you repeat that?
- Would you consider yourself a hero or a villain? Why? Neither is an option as well, but still tell why. I don't really think I'm either of those. I try to help people when I can but I also do some bad things as well.
- If you could have any super ability, what would it be and why? I like who I am now...OH! Being able to change things into Apples would be a Great SUPER power!
- You're asked to take someone out for a date. Do you agree? If so, describe what you would do. If not, tell why. A Date? Well it depends...Are they paying?
- Your country is in the middle of a war. What do you think of it? Do you support it or try to solve it yourself by going on an epic quest? Explain.I don't care what they do...It's not my problem.If it does bother me I'll just go to a different country.
- You are on the verge of death. You know there is no way to survive and there's no coming back. Choose any of the following to answer: What is your last wish? Your last regret? Last thoughts? How do you feel? Who is the last person you think of other than your killer? (can answer more than one of these question, but it will at most count as 2 questions) That's a pretty deep question...Honestly I don't know...My life has been good up till now...I guess I'll just hope my friends where at least okay.
- You are a given a mission. Would you complete it effectively or would you goof off and do something else? Expand a little on the response. I'd complete it effectively! (ooc: Half lie) Or I'll...make up for failing.
- Murder. What is your opinion? Bad.
- You have two options: either save your friend who is hanging from a cliff, or chase after the bad guy who put them in a position. If you choose the former, the bad guy will get away and it will be hard to catch him. If you choose the latter, the cliff will crumble and the friend will fall to the spiky rocks below. What do you do and why? I WOULD OF COURSE SAVE MY FRIENDS! They're WAY more important then some guy! I mean if we run into him again then we'll deal with him but...Not when someone could DIE!
- You discover someone stalking you. Do you call the police or deal with it yourself?Deal with it myself...Police take too long.
- What is more important to you: having friends or living on your own? Why? Well...Before I was mostly alone but after meeting my friends I can't bare the thought of being away from them. We've been through a lot. But if they ask me to leave...Then I would.
- You just got a challenge to fight from one of the strongest gang leaders around. Do you accept or reject? Why? What do I get if I win? But I suppose if he's going to bother us I'll just deal with him right there...
- There is a cake in the rain. What do you do? WAAH! What a Waste! Who would leave a cake out in the rain! You can't eat it like that!
- Would you consider yourself a well traveled person? If so, what are some of your favorite places? If not, would you want to travel or is there some place you want to go? I've been to many many places but I can't say I have a favorite place...Except probably that apple farm, OH and the ocean was so cool!
- Do you prefer adventure or the peaceful life? Adventure, I can't stand staying in one place too long...
- Do you prefer the city or living out in the country? Why? I like both! The city has a lot of great foods but the country is easier to fly in.
You're dirt poor and your family is starving. You have a chance to steal bread. Do you: a) ignore it and get a job, b) steal it anyway because you know you won't get caught, c) get caught but break out of prison anyway, d) steal it and then hide from the creepy cop that keeps stalking you, e) don't steal because stealing is wrong :(. Explain why you chose that option. E. Don't steal because stealing is wrong....(ooc: Lie)
Journal Post: Video
/The dream berry is turned on and you see a slumbering child with black hair and a sweet little face, he's wearing a head band and goggles and three feathers are coming out of the head band in the back. He's also wearing a strange outfit. A goofy smile plays over his darling face and his cheeks color up/
Mmmm....Apples so many apples...Yummy~
/his face then scrunches up and he blinks his eyes open, those chocolate brown orbs in a daze./
…huh?
/He then gets up quickly causing the Dream berry to go flying and now all you see is darkness as it lands face first into the ground./ where am I? /you hear a groggy voice say before a flutter of what sounds like over sized wings of a bird open and take flight. It's a view minutes before you hear another sound besides nature and it's of feet coming onto land./
Well I've never been here before! This place seems interesting..../he doesn't seem scared, rather he's very happy and excited./ Hm? What's this? /He picks up the Dream Berry and looks at it and you see his face again alight with curiosity. He smiles but if you can manage to turn away from that face, you will notice the Black wings folded up against his back, those were not there before...Or where they?/
[Third Person] The storm was getting worse and worse. He knew he had to land soon or succumb to the mighty winds that threatened to throw him into the forest he just passed. His wings stung with the ache of having to fly against such strong winds and begged for rest. Cooro cleared away the droplets of rain that covered his Goggles and when he could see clearly once more he looked down to try and find a landing but it was hard to see anything in this storm. He squinted his eyes and tried to block the rain from hitting his face so his sight wasn't obstructed once more. Not that it really worked but he tried.
Cooro whined a little when he still couldn't see a thing below him, let alone a welcoming family that would take him in. He wrapped his arms around himself, feeling the cold draft like dagger's against his bare arms. He should of brought along the poncho Nana had made him for winter. The boy was in a major predicament...He was either going to give out and die in a crash, or he was going to freeze to death...Or worse...STARVE TO DEATH! He felt his stomach growl although the wind and thunder blocked out the sound of it. He had no choice, it did no good flying in this weather and if her persisted he was bound to end up hitting the ground in a random place at some point anyway. So he dived and working with the drifts he managed to hit the ground at a roll, with minimal damage. He got up and wrapped his wings around him to try to block out the cold.
He looked down the empty street at the shack, the house, and the Hotel. When he saw these places he let out a sigh of relief, shelter. He instantly turned away from the house with the blood dripping down the wall and instead turned to the Hotel. It looked warm and safe and he was sure that food was there. But he had no money....He couldn't pay for the room. The shack probably wasn't very safe but it looked abandoned... Ah! What is a kid supposed to do?
And then a large gust hit him, picking him up and throwing him across the street. “KYAAH!” He yelped and tried to regain his footing anyway possible. He decided to put away his wings for now and carefully walked towards the hotel. In this wind he was sure if he stayed in the shack he would be killed! But he still didn't have money so that left him one choice.. The house. He got up onto the porch and grabbed the door knob noticing it was open and went in. Once in and the door was shut Cooro took a deep breath and slumped against the wood. He was exhausted...He looked around at all the antique furniture of the place and concluded that this must be a wealthy man's house, or once had been.
He thought about Nana and was sure that right now she'd be clinging to one of them in fear. He himself felt a little weary about the place, but it was warm in here and it wasn't necessarily dirty in the place, so someone had lived here recently...This meant food. The thought of food gave him enough energy to get up off the floor and he went off to find the Kitchen. He tried to stay quiet though, so not to be caught. After he got some food in his stomach he'll hide himself away somewhere until the storm was over and if he was caught he'll just fly out into the storm and go to the hotel. A Adult wouldn't turn away a kid that was almost murdered right?
Now that he thought about it..he was now hoping some murderer would come find him, then he would get a free room and even breakfast! With this thought he relaxed and just acted normal, even started singing one of the songs he learned at the church. He wasn't worried, but he did feel a little lonely...He hated spending nights alone, not that he was afraid, but because he was so used to people being around. He sighed and thought about Husky, Nana, and Senri and how they where all probably around a fire right now. He should of paid more attention instead of flying after that strange little bird which ended up getting him lost and caught in a storm. He wondered how far away they where and he thought about them as he raided the nearly empty fridge and as he curled up on the coach to enter a needed slumber. In the Morning he would go look for them, by then this storm should be over.
[Why do you want to play this character in Somarium?] Because he's a very carefree and happy person and I think he would like this place very much, mostly with what I heard from Lina about it not being a Clique central. It just seems like the place where I can let my Cooro muse Free...
[Which rule was your favorite and why?] I like the rule where OOC Drama should not effect IC and IC drama should not effect OOC.
[Where did you hear about Somarium?] My friend Lina who plays Haruhi from Oran High school here.
[Any questions?] No
