Notes
- There are markings on the undersides of the wings!
- The right head is purple and the left head is pink.
- The pale pink marking on the left shoulder is only on the left shoulder and is carved into their body; not an actual marking. No hair should be depicted within that small area.
- The necklace can be found just about anywhere except around either neck, but most often it can be found around their tail.
- The eye markings are mirrored on both sides of both heads.
- Part of their back is empty and hollowed, filled only with the tattered letters that was part of their original form.

Trivia
- They were original a box full of love letters that got left behind at the mansion where they were found.
- They communicate through human voices. The pink head, Kynígi, has feminine vocals. The purple head, Fos, has masculine vocals.
- Φως is pronounced "Fos" and means light. Κυνήγι is pronounced "Kynígi" and means hunting/hunt.
- Φως is the purple head while Κυνήγι is the pink head. Collectively they are called FosKyn, an easier way to address them – though they prefer to be called by their individual names.
- The inspiration for their name came from Artemis and Apollo being twins. Apollo is associated with light while Artemis is associated with hunting, hence the name of this esk having aspects of these two greek gods. They picked their own names without really knowing what it meant.
- They think very highly of themselves due to being transformed by X. They believe it to be a great honor that makes them better than other esk. It's something they love to flaunt and hold over the heads of others. Even though they sort of look down on esk not created by X, they would never be mean to anyone.
- The reason for their color shift is still up in the air for them. It happens most often in the dark, or during dreary weather. In the few times they feel sadness, their fur will also change to reflect their mood. It’s something they’ve found much control over, but they truthfully don’t even notice when it happens.
- They tend to either use their wings to fly or use their four legs to walk around. They don’t really float or defy physics, despite being able to; they took a lot of their movements and mannerisms from the animals around their boundary.
- FosKyn has been to the conservatory only a handful of times. They enjoy the magical feeling and all the beautiful crystals. Though they don’t visit very often since they enjoy their home, they do enoy their brief visits.
Currently: maintaining their beautiful boundary and finding new souls to help.
Personality
Despite having two separate heads who tend to think independently, they share a lot of similarities. They agree on a lot of things, including how much they need to keep up their appearance. It’s one of the most important things for them, making sure they look well-groomed along with their surroundings. Because of this, they tend to think of themselves as better than other esk. Not only were they created by X, who they hold in high regard, they think of themselves as peak beauty. Even though they might make slightly backhanded compliments, they are generally kind to other esk; even if they don’t match up to the standards they have in place. This even includes visiting other boundaries – something they very rarely do. In spite of the comments made about how dingy and gross things may be, they will still attempt to fix it to make it look nicer. A small, kind gesture that is surprisingly selfless of the esk. They would never describe themselves as such, but they do have their moments. Being rather sociable, they have no issues sharing their opinions and hanging out with others. That doesn’t lend them many friends, but the idea of friends is strange to them anyway.
They can have a small tendency to argue about trivial things and small details. Each head considers themself quite independent and simply stuck with the other. Fos tends to be a bit more stand-offish but wanting to work together due to the fact they are attached to the same body. Kynígi tends to be a bit more independent and wants to take credit for all the things they do, thinking themselves as the ‘main’ head in charge. Even though they have these differences, they would be pretty lost without the other – something neither would admit but can still feel.
Nature Features
Their nature features are always bright and present no matter what season the world around them may be going through. Both are able to be affected by the overgrowth, but the bleeding hearts don’t usually dangle too long. The bleeding heart mostly shows off their animated nature feature mutation, with them being able to raise and lower and reach out depending on what the esk wants it to do. It’s not something they usitlize often, but it can happen without them realizing. The overgrowth mostly has an effect on the pothos, which makes them grow to cover much of their body. It’ll even grow to start wrapping around the wings. It’s unclear what causes the overgrowth to happen, and it’s not something they invest much time into.
As a Creator
In general, they can be a little bit picky with what they transform. It’s rare that they make creations outside of their boundary, considering how little they leave. They mostly want to transform creatures that would help maintain the mansion, whether that be tending to the gardens or making sure the inside is well kept. Most of the time, these creatures don’t want to become ‘servants’ of FosKyn, but they still rarely become trespassers. They still care about the things they create, checking in to make sure they’re doing their job but also secretly to make sure they’re happy. While they can come across as annoying to their creations, they still will make the effort to check on them. If they happen to create something outside of their boundary, there’s a good chance they will simply forget they even did, becoming very distant and forgetful.
Boundary
The mansion that Φως and Κυνήγι call their home is on the north coast of France not too far from a cliff edge that goes straight into the ocean. It's far enough away to have sprawling gardens surrounding the estate, acting as almost a maze if you’re not careful. The inside remains just as beautiful as it was in its prime; they have taken care to restore the mansion to its former glorious look and have been very sucessful in in their task. Despite the years that it took, even the gardens look just as marvelous as they used to.
Accessories
The locket necklace that they have is reminiscent of their origins. It’s the same locket that the owner of the box had given to his lover. In the shape of a heart, it is able to open and close, although it stays mostly open for the esk. They never have the necklace around their necks – most often it can be found around their tail or held up by one of their tucked front legs.
The most recent necklaces they acquired do rest around their necks, one for each of them. Attatched are their transformation rewards, a heart-shaped rose quartz. They hold these prizes very dearly for the wonderful thing they have done in creating more esk.
Enchantments
Their enchantment, feel the love, is only applied to the locket necklace that they have. While it is always slightly active, the strength of it changes depending on how much they focus on it. It appears as a pink glow around the opened heart. The effect it has on others depends a little bit on who is feeling it, but it generally makes others feel more loving towards other creatures and even just the world around them. Sometimes that love is simply a platonic feeling, while other times it can be a bit more romantic. FosKyn doesn’t have much control over which kind of love is felt, but they only use it to make others see how great the world is and fall in love with it, or others, like they have.

Φως and Κυνήγι absolutely adore X. They think themselves quite wonderful to have been selected to be created by X and will often try and seek them out. They've even dragged the wanderer to their boundary to show them the progress of the restoration of the mansion. They do wish X would be more present with them and visit more often, desperately wanting to please the Wanderer.
They don’t have much contact with 5796, mostly because they were transformed outside of the mansion. Though they adore the reward that was given to them for performing the act, they too often simply forget that 5796 was to thank for allowing them to obtain the stone.
FosKyn loves to bother Lady quite often, almost spying on her as part of their free time. They created her to help take care of the gardens, something she agreed to do. They’re a bit oblivious to the idea that Lady finds them a bit annoying, and honestly wouldn’t care if they did know. They enjoy her company and feel a lot less lonely with her around.
