Et Tacet Solo Write
Warning: I highly advise you to read this before you join the solo write, or if nothing else the last two posts. It will help enormously with your understanding of characters you create and the entire world this is built in. Shouldn’t take more than an hour, but if you don’t I may not accept your character (at least as an MC).

Have you ever looked up at the stars and seen something other than innumerous white specks?
Well, we look down on them every day. We see them, moment after moment and second after second. We are the Overseers, the gods who keep the universe spinning… or at least we used to be. Something’s changed now, something internal. Something he doesn’t know about, and will refuse to admit. Why? Because he loves the system. He loves the way things work now, and doesn’t realize it may not be the same in the future. He’ll do—oh?
Who am I?
No one important.
Not really, anyways.
At any rate, I’m not the one who ought to be talking. My time is almost up--I’ll have to return soon. So until then…
“Are you sure about this?” they asked worriedly, blinking with concern. Their friend gulped nervously, a hand on their forehead.
“We have to,” they said, a slight tremor breaking their voice. “Otherwise we won’t fill our quota, and Nadav will be at our doorstep faster than I could count starmatter. Besides, there’s billions of other stars and planets we could get. Earth 1 is so rare you might as well be searching for Rainan…”
“I know, I know,” the other replied heavily, steadying their nerves. “We might as well get to it, then.” Both the figures sucked in a quick breath and let the eyes on their foreheads pulse with bluish light, and in a moment a spherical hologram had appeared, revolving in between the two.
It only took a second for them to realize what planet was covered in mottled green and blue colors, and the next for it to process.
There was a sharp knock at the door.

Hello one and all! This is a follow-up to my ‘CB Spirit Solo Write’, which I hugely enjoyed writing and really wanted to take further. (Cquerria is so much fun to write about) Only 10 CBers will be allowed to join, though I may not stick to that rule too tightly because I’m way too nice.
Here’s the charrie sheet:
*NOTE* There were some people in my first write who may want to join again. You absolutely can, but you cannot use your character from the first write. (They might appear again at some point)
Name (The names Cquerrians have are largely Hebrew and Arabic-sounding. Choose along those lines, though nicknames can be anything related):
Appearance (Anything you like. Read the first write, but they are able to change their form to anything save the forehead-eye):
Personality:
Extra (please know about what I’ve established on Cquerrians before adding this!):
Et tacet un linguam loquitur… see you soon…

Can you save me a spot? Thanks! I don't have enough time right now to fill out an entire sheet before bed. Thanks again!

Can I reserve a spot? I plan on reading the first solo write, and I'm sure I'll be dying to get in afterward!

Name: Tzipora
Appearance (Anything you like. Read the first write, but they are able to change their form to anything save the forehead-eye): Her forehead eye is blue, with gold flecks. She loves flying and is usually in a form with wings. Her favorite forms are a small golden dragon and a bright red bird. However, the colors often change depending on her mood.
Personality: She is usually kind and pretty happy. She is shy at first, but once she feels close to people, she will trust them utterly and be incredibly loyal. However, if she's irritated by someone or doesn't like them, she will purposely put barriers between that person and herself, though she'll try not to show it. Once her opinion about someone has been formed, good or bad, it will take a very long time to change.
Extra: I guess she's just an overseer, like all the others. I read the original solo write, (It was amazing, by the way! Great job!) but couldn't really figure much out about the Cquerrians.

"My good opinion, once lost, is lost forever" XD Sorry, I had to.

No! I'm to late! Well, I guess I'll just read it. Carry on!
(April 6, 2017 - 4:32 pm)
Attention- Joan, Scylla, and Leeli, please post your charries! Then I can begin planning a plot. :)
(April 7, 2017 - 8:47 am)
I will do that ASAP. I'm hoping to finish reading the first solo write first so I know what's going on XD. (Itissososososogoodiamamzednowordstodescribemyfeelingsaaaaaaaahhhhhiloveit) Sorry, mini rant over the CB Spirit Solo Write. XD
(April 7, 2017 - 12:06 pm)
I can't wait!

I finally have time to create my character! I hope it's not too late.
Name: Haleq (HAH-lehk)
Appearance: Fuchsia third eye. Normal eyes are darker brown with flecks of gold. Human form: Skin is a warm coffee color. In place of arms, Haleq has massive tawny wings. They are capable of transforming these wings into arms and back to wings at will. They have a second set of much smaller wings on their back. They have dark fuchsia tattoos in mysterious patterns on their arms. When shape-shifting, the tattoos glow white-hot. They typically take the form of a birdlike bipedal animal with two sets of wings and dark bronze feathers.
Personality: Quiet, guarded. Not very social, but often sought out for advice. High pain tolerance. I may add to this in the future, but for now feel free to manipulate it as you wish.
Extra: They, them
(April 7, 2017 - 2:08 pm)
Also, Haleq's height is 6'4''. A little shorter than average.
(April 8, 2017 - 11:04 am)
Oh! By the way, my charrie's third eye is a sort of golden starlight kind of colour.
(April 7, 2017 - 6:07 pm)
Name: Alariian, goes by Alarii.
Appearance: Her third eye is icy blue with gold flecks, and the other two eyes are a deep turquoise. She usually takes the form of a large black panther-like creature with wings, or a canine wolf-like creature with feathers instead of fur. (You're welcome to give names to these creatures if you like!)
Personality: Guarded, a bit distrusting, but once she gets to know someone, she's protective of that person. She doesn't like distrusting people, liars, cheaters, or injustice. She sometimes uses anger or sharpness to mask feelings of insecurity.
(April 9, 2017 - 8:36 am)
Oh! I forgot to add extra, and this little bit of her personality: She has a soft side, though it rarely shows, and in the rare occasion that someone makes an effort to get to know her, she'll deeply bond with them.
Extra: She loves the stars, watching them, walking on them. She loves to have midnight strolls on the horizon edges of starlit galaxies. She also hates destruction.
