Profile
HEHE rocketass........
an apprentice astronomer, studying under an older harpip. was gifted by them as a coming-of-age and a sign of good faith, partially to convince others that his curse is not indicative of his current demeanor. he lives in a remote tower observatory with his mentor and is fairly isolated. his mentor discourages him going outside because of his curse (not sure if its bc of prejudice, bc last time he went on an "adventure" he got cursed, or both) and he reluctantly obeys.
young, flighty. extremely curious but kept on a tight leash. absolute rascal and cannot resist getting up to trouble. gets the zoomies.
Social Connections
Sirius - buddy :)
Aloysius - cranky old guardian and astronomy mentor
North - elder brother, but they don't remember him
Species - Spinxyn
Spinx are a terribly mischievous type of sphinx native to Nephfei with a deep love for pranks and fashion. They are magicless, unlike the other species of their world - legend has it they pranked the gods and were punished - and thus are very magically malleable. Because of this, spinx can be cursed or gifted with magic and it affects their bodies drastically.
Spinxyn are identifiable by their heart-shaped faces, sloped banana ribcage, and innate desire to cause problems on purpose.
World Context || Nephfei group <3
A modern fantasy world governed by magical gods, Nephfei is home to four sentient species - harpips, centicorns, merphins, and spinxyn. They live together in relative peace aside from some cultural clashes between locales of differing ideologies. The world has been imbued with magic, in all four species and in the earth itself, but spinxyn have none of their own; revoked by the gods, so they say, as an ancient punishment. With tangible deities, Nephfeism is a prevalent religion amongst the inhabitants, and some religious spinxyn see their situation as deserved punishment, while others deny the gods entirely and rally against this unfair treatment.
Nephfei has a good amount of modern-day technology, though its electricity is replaced by magic. Lighting, household appliances, television, games, and the internet at large all exist with relative similarity to the real world. Despite the societal advancements, though, a significant amount of the world's history and inner workings remain shrouded in mystery and magical secrets...
