Introduction

A wocky opens her eyes and smiles kindly at you. "Welcome to my petpage. I suppose you were curious as to what you would find when you clicked the link? Here, sit down." She pats at a rough woven mat, laying on the floor.

She's sitting on one herself, her eyes half-open and gazing out at the sparkling sea. It was really quite beautiful... the color of the water was a bright, vivid turquoise, the edges laced with sea foam. Palm trees bowed their heads, shifting in the breaths of cool, wet air.

She closes her intense blue eyes, resting her chin on her paws. Her fur is the creamy brown of chocolate, only broken by the white of her paws, ear and tail-tips, and the powder blue of her mane. "I was out late last night, so I think I might take a small nap to get my energy back. Feel free to look around... you might find out more about me, if you're lucky." You turned to her to say something, but she was already fast asleep.

History

Are you sure you want to read this? I don't think it's a very good story... you sure? All right. Don't say I didn't warn you.

I should start with my parents. Let's just say that they had a very... complicated... relationship. My mother was nobility and my father was a simple fish seller, you see. They met when my mother moved to Krawk Island, being daughter of the new governor (to keep the pirates in order, I guess). They loved each other very much, but if anyone saw them together, chances were that my father would either be thrown into the dungeons or beheaded.

Then, my mother fell ill, from a particularly bad wave of influenza. She died, a month or two later.

Her ghost stayed in the world of the living, and my father and her rejoiced when they realized that they could be together now, without anyone to keep them apart. But, mother was just an echo from the world of the dead, transparent and insubstantial as smoke... it wasn't the same.

Father grew desperate, and tried ending his own life. But his soul faded away too quickly into the world of the dead, leaving Mother's ghost all alone.

They could only reach each other when they traveled to the stretch of no-man's land that lies between the two realms of living and death. They created me, then, a child with enough power to bind them together for eternity, in the world of the dead.

They left,
and...
and...
I'm still here.

I visit them sometimes, but I can't stay there long, or risk being caught in there forever.
And no, I won't tell you what it's like there... You'll have to imagine that for yourself.
But let me say this: Death isn't all gore and black and frightening. Death can be beautiful.

My Family

So, I guess I'll talk a little about my brothers and sisters, who all belong to Rex. Not blood relatives, of course, only by adoption.

Snowdrop - Hm. -frowns- I don't have any enemies, since I'm not that kind of person, but Snowdrop... She really pushes it. Pranks me all the time, never says sorry. That sort of thing. -sigh-

Sunny - Aw, he's such a sweet guy. Kind of shy, but really sweet. He creeps out some people. I think it's his eyes...

Sweet - I think people are hard on the poor girl because of her curiosity and hyper-ness. Can come off as annoying, but she's actually very smart, and has a good view of life. I like her.

Moon - Er... He's definitely a little strange. Very guardian-like, and very protective of his home in the swamps. He can only stay at Rex's house for our monthly reunion for a day before he 'must go back'. Very trustworthy, though.

Sauk - I'm very mutual-feeling'd about her. We get along nicely enough... I just try to avoid her sometimes, because without meaning to she can be harsh and cruel. And when I tell her so, she denies it.

Cost - I feel really bad for her. She's very skittish, and doesn't like talking to strangers at all. I have a feeling that she's traumatized or something and still suffering from shock. Poor lupess.

Ruw - Hmph. He's up there on my people-I-don't-really-like list, next to Snowdrop. Very pompous and insensitive... Rex said something about him having nobility? He's always asking me to bow, and I in turn try to help him be nicer. But he never listens!

Orlano - Orla... I'm not too sure about her. Sometimes she can be very sweet, sometimes she just blows her top and bites my head off when I try to talk to her... most of the time she sleeps. Rex says that it's not her fault, really, and that she suffers from trauma, sort of like Cost. She just takes the feeling of loss differently than most neopets.

Xizo - To be quite honest, he frightens me. I... I just get the weird feeling that if I made him upset, he'd do something terrible to me... this is one of the only neopets in the world that I make a point not to talk to.

Friends

ROZZIA - We met one day on Mystery Island, and really connected well. She helped me face my powers (since back then I was much more scared of myself), and I helped her to accept her past... Oops, I shouldn't tell you that!

AMIE - Her 'owner' is Rex's sister, so we're cousins? She's a goddess of the weather... Kind of chubby, lazy, but a goddess all the same. The one thing that bugs me about her is that she just stands and watches storms happen and see people go through the traumatic experience of dying. Whenever I mention it to her, she changes the subject. But, yeah, she's my friend...

Copper

The wocky cupped her paws around her mouth and shouted "Copper!" into the air. Before long, you hear a panting noise, as a little miniature fox came leaping out of the water. Marbs smiled at him. "This is my Juma, Copper. He was a gift from Rex, not too long ago... He can be hyper sometimes," she had added that last part in, when Copper started to chase his own tail, spinning round and round in dizzying circles. "He's a little love, though, aren't you, Copper?" The hyperactive Juma stopped and stared adoringly at her, his tale thumping happily on the sand.

Ending

The wocky's eyelids fluttered open, and she let out a tired yawn. "So, you reached the bottom of the page? Lucky you." She stares at the scroll bar for awhile, then sighs. "I hope you come back soon. Or, better yet, perhaps you have a pet that would like to roleplay with me? I haven't had the chance to make many friends." Marbs padded over to the door, pulling on the handle with her teeth.
,"Goodbye...

Link Back

Marbs offered you one last smile, before you left. "I'm sorry I was asleep the whole time. I was just very, very tired. But, if you want to come back to see me again, why don't you take this button with you? Just copy and paste the code in the box."
