Rakelle angled her wings so that she dipped into a steep dive, making for her cave deep in the mountain range where she lived. The river outside the entrance rushed by beneath her, tumbling over the rocks, and once again she felt satisfaction in finding a cave like this that was so easily defended by a dragon of her skills.

Name: Rakelle Clearstorm

Gender: Female

Age: 580 years old

Abilities: Selena’s abilities are all to do with water-she can create a shield to protect herself, use it as a weapon, or even turn it to ice if she so wished. Most of the time, however, she only uses it to water the crops of the humans in the area where she lives in secret,… Read more

Rakelle Clearstorm

“Or stop them from pursuing our friend here.” Dropping down from the tree, Selena smiled at the wolf. “Hello, there. It’s all right, you’re safe here with me. None of them will ever touch you again.”

Her eyes turned blue again as the wind picked up, more violent this time, sending the wolf’s pursuers tumbling away and out of sight.

Still fighting laughter herself, Selena settled on the branch next to her, smiling broadly. “I haven’t had that much fun in years! As much as I loved training to be a Guardian, I didn’t really have much time for playing tricks. That, and I… may have tarred and feathered a superior of mine a few years back…”

Selena purred, stretching her arms over her head. “Gladly. Lady Rakelle is going to be mad at me for using her Element, but oh well. This will be fun…”

Hovering over the lake, well out of sight of the men, she began whipping the water with the wind, hitting it harder and harder as the men began staggering backwards. Using her winds to… Read more

Selena grinned. The Nymph woman really did know what she was doing! Quickly, she began setting up simple traps-removing dirt from under roots so the men would trip over them, making branches hit them in the face, little things that were easily ignored and explained away-all so that it could be built up to something much, much bigger…

Selena blinked, surprised at how quickly the nymph could move, then called on the wind to lift her up and carry her over the trees to where the hunting party was sniping at the wolf. Settling down, she frowned at the sight of them trying to terrify the animal. “Humans. So primitive at times.”

With a wave of her hand, she made a shield over… Read more

Selena smiled at her new ‘friend’, and then closed her eyes. “Give me a moment-I may be able to find someone we can play some tricks on…” The breeze around them picked up, and then shot away from them-although Selena kept her own personal wind, which usually acted as a shield-close to her. She never went anywhere outside of her home without… Read more

Selena laid her ears and whiskers flat back against her head, feeling a bit awkward now. “I get the feeling I’ll be learning them during my time here. And an Air Elemental always has a few tricks up her sleeve-we wouldn’t be considered a true Snow Leopard without them.”

It was true-at the age of ten, she had been set the task of playing a… Read more

Selena laughed. “My people don’t have that kind of interaction with others, I’m afraid-we don’t need to. But I can imagine it would be fun to watch!” She fell quiet a moment, then felt herself turn red under her facial fur. “Well, maybe if I’d seen a naked human male before… I remove their trousers, but never go any further with them…”

… Read more

Selena laughed. “I admit, I do enjoy making humans lose their clothing! It’s always fun watching them try to catch their trousers or some particularly embarrassing item that they shouldn’t have taken off in the first place.”

Green eyes sparkled with amusement as she grinned. “Even more fun is then making them trip and fall flat on their… Read more

Selena’s smile was a bit more serious now as she replied. “I shall be joining you in those tricks, if that’s all right. My orders from the Goddess are to protect this forest however I can-without revealing my identity.” Her smile turned a little evil as she continued: “Of course, that means I have full rein to do whatever I like to… Read more

Selena smiled at her-it was good to have someone she could talk to properly here. “No, you didn’t make her, but you did attract other predators to her meal. Still, never mind that now. As for my Guardianship here…”

Her mind turned to the Temple, high up in the mountains where her kind lived. “My being here to care for the forest is more… Read more

Selena smiled at the tree nymph calmly. “Well, for a start, don’t you think it’s a little unfair that you cost my cousin her meal? It takes a lot of energy to hunt our food down, after all.”

Floating over to a nearby tree, she settled on the branch so that she would be level with the woman’s face. “Second, I had no idea that there were… Read more

Selena frowned as she watched the exchange. Wanting her large cousin to have a full, proper meal, she spread her senses through the forest, searching for another deer for her. Finding one, she dispatched it with a quick arrow, then brought it to the tiger, lowering it from above while shielding her from her scent.
Now she was certain that… Read more

I think Tartarus’s idea is a good one, but what if the few other worldly beings that were in the city were slaves to the humans? We could have a whole ‘destroy the city and free our comrades’ thread, then.

Possible urban area…? Not all animals/mythical creatures would live in the wild, after all…
