Welcome to my page, guest.

I was born a slave of Lord Kass, whom I hate with all of my heart. I spent many years of hard labor in the darigan citadel. I never met my real parents, but I never cared. I always supposed that they were evil as nearly every darigan seems to be.

At the age of 12, I managed to escape from the prison of the citadel and wandered into Meridell. At first, everyone was afraid they were under attack. Then, a yellow lupe around the same age as me came up to me and asked if I was lost. I explained that I had run away from Lord Kass and needed a place to hide.

The young lupe's family took me in and soon everyone in the village knew me. I stayed with my new family for the rest of my childhood and at the age of 16 joined the Meridell army, hoping to get the chance to help fight off Kass.

Then, a little after my 18th birthday, a swarm of darigan pets raided Meridell and discovered that I had been hiding out there. Before, no one had cared that a lowly slave was missing, but since I had defied Lord Kass they decided I must be punished.

However, I escaped from their clutches and ran home. My family sent him far away to Neopia Central where they figured I would be safe. I promised that one day I would return and defeat Lord Kass.

When I finally reached Neopia Central, exhausted from travel, I met a camouflage lupe by the name of Hershey. I learned that she was training to join the Shenkuu army. We two had a lot in common and quickly became friends. Hershey offered me a place to stay while I awaited the day I would return to my true home in Meridell. I came to stay with Hershey and her siblings and spend many afternoons training in the battledome with her.

My New Friends and Family:

Since moving to Neopia Central, I've become part of a very large neofamily. I must say I love them all, though I really wish Riquael would cheer up a bit.

This is (a really bad drawing of) my best friend, Hershey. We've got a lot in common. She's training to be in the Shenkuu army. I spend many of my afternoons training with her. Both of us have got our own set of armour. Someday, I plan to return to Meridell and join their army. We just hope that Meridell and Shenkuu never go to war against each other!

Zellestial (right) and Saendrinn (left) are two of my other new friends. They belong to Ed.

Drake:

This is my petpet, Drake the drackonack. He followed me out when I left the citadel and has been with me ever since. He's very piglike, and not very nice. He picks on other petpets, especially Hershey's snuffly, Snuffles.

Art for ME? =D

Me and Hershey. Traditional art by Katie done with map pencils. Oh, and in an attempt to make the colors come out cleanly she made Hershey super green. XD

Clones?!

Oh no, they're really just adoptables. If you do customs, neomail me please.^^
