POWER ORIGIN IDEAS

POWER ORIGIN IDEAS

This thread's purpose is to contain theories and stories about how the Powers came about and what they could be- besides the Powers of Wing and Claw. I'll post my stories as soon as I come up with them.

Admin: After a week or two, we will create a poll so everyone can vote on which origin story they like best! We might even combine more than one story.

Oooh nice twist!

Thanks! If no one wants to do Claaws's power, I'm going to do it. But anyone can still share their idea.

i have two ideas, she can die first or last and I've writen two different stories for both. Tell me which one you like better. 

First;  Claaws looked up at the moon with her white eyes, teeming with crimson from within. She heard a rustle from behind her and swerved one of her large ears around. Human. The turned her head to face them, her pearl-white toothy grin forced from a snarl. "Ah, Claaws. Just the...Panther we were looking for."

Claaws got up and unsheathed her long, silvery thin claws, which with one swipe could kill anything from a mouse, to a greedy human. She curled her long tail out from around her paws and took a dangerous step towards the bushes. As she did, a small human emerged with wavy blond hair and icy blue eyes. In his hand was a vile of something golden and silver, in the other was a thin spear, carved from shinny obsidian. His teeth were wickedly white...too white for any creature...and his cheeks were red even in the silver moonlight. "What do you want," Claaws sat down calmly. "I already told you I couldn't find the Powers's lair. No one has seen them in seasons, human."

"That's Kyndom King to you, animal," he snarled back.

Claaws growled in anger, but calmed herself swiftly, seeing she had said the wronge thing to this human. "Yes, king," she said through clenched teeth. 

The human smiled, beckoning foward a horse. The carmel steed spoke animal too quietly for Claaws to hear, to something behind it, a crow possibly, but human knew their language back then, as animals still know human. "No," the human growled in response to the animal. "I want the panther."

Claaws looked questioningly into the darkness. It never accured to her once that they were on to her real identity. And she watched as a dark spotted panther with haunting yellow eyes walked into the moonlight and sat down at the humans feet, almost as big as the small child. "Tell me, those eyes arnt normal for a panther, are they," the panther shook its head no. "Those claws are oddly silver, are they not," the panther shook its head yes. "And the pattern on the fur, looks almost like scales, does it not," the panther shook its head yes again.

and before Claaws knew what was happening the spear was hurtling towards her heart...but bounced off. "Dragon," the human snarled. "Spy," he spit at her feet.

and the hole time the panther just watched with sole percing eyes. She couldn't deffend herself. She had to come clean. So with one flick of her ear, a black mist engolphed her, and the air around her. In three seconds flat a dragon filled the space she was once in, and the space around her. Dragon bent her head to look the human in the eyes. "You've caught me," she let her sour breath blow across his face like the wind, batting aside the panther with a shove of her gaunt head. "But now all you can do is watch your army suffer, and do some suffering yourself. Your no king and you never will be. Your a human. Your insane." 

She drew her head back, then slashed her claws in the kings direction. But before she could reach the king, something almost like pain stabbed her talon. Impossible! Powers can't feel pain. Powers can't get wounded! Powers. Can't. Die. 

She drew her talon away to see a percing like a burn, slowly eating away her scales. It stopped shortly though. She turned her head back to the smirking unharmed human. "What magic is this?"

the human smiled. "I call it I.B.G. Incredible Brazilian Goo. Its a liquid that can only hurt Powers, as we saw your reactions to some flowers awhile ago and thought we could turn that to a weakness. we extracted it from the peatles of numbourus flowers of all different species. We tested it on some animals while they were sleeping. It hurt none but you. Then we knew it worked, and there was a Spy mong us. With this new descovery, we were thinking about making a guild. We would call it B.I.G., Brazilin Inquiry Guild, and rule all land, sky, and water with it, as soon as you Powers die. And that will be soon enough."

"I should've killed you earlyer." Claaws slashed out again, ignoring the pain, and hit him. She heard a desolving noise and felt lots of pain before pulling away.

"I covered myself in it too. Nothing can hurt me! I'm all powerful and will rule the world!"

fear flashed in Claaws eyes. He was actually going to do it. He was going to kill the Powers. "You don't get it!" She roared frantically. "We are just trying to protect the Powers the Magical Flower (I really don't know what the flower's called:) )  gave us! Without us, your world will turn back to just volcanos! No one can survive like that! Not even your B.I.G.! You have to listen! Please!"

"it's too late for that," he growled. "I am the king of Kyndom! All animals will now bow at my feet,  even the all great Powers!"

his eyes were too wild, too greedy, here was no telling him otherwise. They would all die. Unless she could escape and tell the others so they could go into hiding forever. She spred her wings and leaped into the sky. But the king of Kyndom saw it coming. He raised his hand, and flung it down hard. Arrows were everywhere. Pain was all over her. She was burning. With a loud crash she was on the ground in front of the human. "The Powers will rule no more!" He yelled to the croud around him. They screamed in agreement all around her. But if her power was gone, maybe they could see reason and stop before killing the others.

The king stepped onto her head and yelled, loud and soul piercing. In his hand was a green sword. 

The Dragon was dead. The crowd cheered as the king took the sword out of her head.  She went limp under his feet and bounced when he leaped off it. "We have five more to go," he yelled, leading the way back into the forest.

it wasn't a long time later, just untill the human was far out of hearing. A single drop of black blood ran down the dragons once beautiful black head.it planted itself in the earth, and in less then a few seconds a flower stem started to grow. In a heartbeat it was a beautiful flower, with one of six golden peatles. The peatle fell, and the stem crumbled. The first of six has fallen. 

As the peatle hit the ground a single dark tooth fell from Dragon's mouth. They touched, and a golden sparkle covered both, only to reveal a sharp trumpet made from a tooth. A mighty roar yowled from the heavens, and the dragon's body was gone. But it's spirit remained, jumping into the trumpet with one mighty leap. 

With one call from this instrument, the king of all beasts will awaken to roam the earth once more.

With the ghoastly words, a panther with yellow eyes emerged from the darkness. A moment passed and the human was back. "She's gone," he hissed, summoned by the mighty roar. 

"No,"the panther hissed. "She's in there. You can't really kill a Power."

The panther picked up the tooth with its shinny teeth. "One blow could summon the Dragon. We need a gaurd to make sure that will never happen."

the human snarled as if a wonderful idea struck him. "Whatever animal the a Power could turn into will gaurd it, as payment for their spy forms, they'll watch their once freind a of kind gaurd them for the rest of eternity. Well make sure that will happen for all of them."

the panther dropped the tooth.

"So that makes me the first guardian."

the last one is coming soon. Please tell me what you think!

Beautiful. But how about all the backstories intertwine. I mean everybody is making big stories about the powers but you can't see them together.

The Power of Eye, the power to see what is hidden, to see in the dark, to see the truth.

Okay, that randomly landed into my brain from out of nowhere, but it's an idea. Like, maybe a cat could have the Power of Eye, GASP, OR AN OWL! OR HAWK! OR WHATEVER CAN SEE REALLY WELL! OOOH, OWL OR CAT! Yeah, Owl or Cat. That's my idea. People have already got ideas for the Powers, but this is another one. I think someone mentioned a Power of Eye before, but I've added onto that idea, I think. Hmm... now what do I do with this idea? I'm just gonna ask what everyone thinks of it. Is it cool? Would it work? Should I make a story about it? Do these questions make sense? Is it dum? Seriously, if you think it's dum then say it, I want your real opinions here!

So, what do YOU think, Admins?

"raka!" Sure you can help rake up the leaves with a rake, but there isn't really a lot of leaves to rake up..

Nice idea Chinchilla/Ivy (what one should I call you?) We already have six powers though, please tell us which magical creature you would want to pair with it, and tell us your story! We will have to change something's about some of our story's, but if you really want it we could fit it in. (Or if you don't want it that bad, give a shot at writing about one of the ones we already have, the Power of Wing, Power of Claw, Power of Fin, (we have a lot of stories about the Power of Hoof and Power of Howl) try writing a backround story too, and you can write a Power story for Claaws aka Dragon (Power of Tooth/Darkness)

oh and I'm still working on the one where Claaws is the last to die. Thanks for your opinion Chinchilla/Ivy. The next one is going to be waaaaaaay more intense. :) ;)

Well, I do kind of want the um, Power of Eye to be in there, if it's not too much trouble. And I think a black panther could have the Power of Eye and could turn into a huge, awesome silvery owl. (Hey, the Power of Claaw can shift between a cat and a dragon, I don't want the Eye and Claaw mixed up.) Um, should the Power of Eye be named Eyye?

Here's my idea for the Power of Eye story, here's the one where Claaw dies first:

 

Eyye earked awake from an unsettling dream. In it, Claaws had died. And there had been a... a... she couldn't remember. Eyye dug her claaws into the rough bark of the tree in frustration. All she could remember of the dream was that Claaws had died and something, something BAD was coming. Suddenly Eyye felt a pearcing pain in her eyes. Claaws was dead. Before Eyye got used to the shock however, Eyye saw a human. His cheeks were red, but unnaturally. And his eyes.... they were cold, blue, and dark, the type of dark that would swallow universes if given the chance. He also had blonde hair. He was coming closer and several other humans were following him, and he seemed to be carrying a spear of ebony or some other metal. He reached Eyye in a matter of seconds and looked up at the branch she was on. "Come down and face the King of Kyngdom!" He said. Eyye stared down at him with interest, but she didn't move. He brandished the spear at her. "Come down here and prove you're a Power!" Eyye's anger flared and she stood up and looked down her nose at the human. "I don't need to 'prove' anything. I am a Power and you know it. Why are you here?" She asked. The human's mouth curled into a grin, or maybe a smirk, it was hard to tell with a face like his. "I'm here to conquor all those animals that baost to be a 'power!' You animals are nothing compared to us." Eyye glared at him. There was something not right about this human. he didn't see things the way he should. In his vision, everything was.... warped. He saw her as a kitten, helpless and dum. Eyye leaped down to face the human and looked straight into his eyes. "You are insane." Eyye stated the fact as camnley as her boiling rage would allow her. He laughed. It was silvery, and tinckled merrily, but something darker, more sinister was behind it. "You amuse me, Eyye. But I still want you dead." With that he threw the spear at Eyye. She avoided nimbly. She smiled a threatening smile. "I'm afriad death isn't an option for me, I can't die. But YOU certainly can." And with that a silver mist descended onto Eyye and she morphed shape. now she was a huge owl, silver and dangerous, as tall as the aok tree she had been sitting on before. The human only smiled. He flung a bird-net over Eyye, and she swiped it away but a pain shot up her wing and her eyes widened in surprise. She had never felt a pain like this. "You DARE try to capture me?!" She threw herself upon the human, clawing at him with her claws, but he only smiled and said: "What that net was caoted in was the only subtence able to hurt a Power. I'm covered in it too, so I am INVINCEABLE!" Eyye shrieked in pain, but continued to attack. he ran to the spear he had thrown earlier and threw it at her heart. Eyye blocked with her wing, but the spear went right through it, and pierced her heart. She fell to the ground. As the human watched, the all-seeing eyes of Eyye flickered, and the light behind them faded. The human crowd disperced, but the insane human stayed. The body of Eyye shimmered and a drop of blood dropped into her eye. Her body disappeared, the only thing left was a small eyeglass. Words were inscribed on it, and they said:

The one who sees truth and looks through this will summon the Power of Eye to raom the earth once more.

A small panther jumped from the tree above the insane human. The human turned to the panther. "Do you remember what I said to the leapared that accompianeed me when I conquored Claaws?" The panther nodded. "Then you are the gaurdian of Eyye." The human and the panther left the clearing with the eyeglass. When they were gone, a whispery voice echoed through the forest.

"The one who frees Eyye will not be an owl nor a panther... but it will be the one who sees the truuth..."

There was a howl. And I knew something wasn't right. I ran in the direction and hid in the shadows as a human held up a vile of something Amber. Like a liquid made from the nectar of a flower. Then he walked away. I stepped out of the bushes to see Angle Wolf. Dead. But before I could do anything The bushes where the human had gone rustled, and i dived for the bushes just as an amber wolf appeared. Suddenly the howl was replayed in a flash of lightning, and a single tear ran down the face of my dearest freind, my sister, and planted itself into the ground. Then a flower grew, with one golden peatle. Then the peatle fell, and the flower crumbled. "The first of six has fallen," I whispered. The howl echoed around the air, and as the peatle fell, seemed to collide and make a horn, beautiful yet despicable. Who would imprison a howl that great in an instrument to small? Then the wolf was gone, and she watched as her spirit leaped into the great instrument. Then she knew what was happening. "One blow from this instrument will summon the beast who has fallen, but will rise again."

The wolf stepped forward, and admired the instrument. "She escaped," the human crashed out from the bushes.

"No," the wolf growled. "You can't kill a Power. We need a guardian to gaurd her so no one ever summons her again."

The human smiled cold and despicable. "How about whatever their spy forms could turn into, to punish them for trusting this one species. For ever being a species. For ever disobeying the King."

the wolf glanced back down at the horn, sharing his despicable smile. "So that makes me the first guardian."

Claaws silently cursed those animals and ran all the way back to their secret lair, not daring to turn into Dragon until safely hidden. Once in she transformed and roard calmly, "they've found a way to kill us."

Immediate panic. "How? We can't be killed!"

"There was something in a vile, poison of some kind. Poison that can kill a Power." 

The next decade they only went out to check on the humans, to spy and to watch. And everytime they split up, one didn't come back. They couldn't do anything but hope they survived. Then the time came when the last roar echoed the trees, and Claaws was the only Power left. She felt the greed in the humans as they saw their power, one Dragon away. She knew she was going to die anyway. She had to try and stop this.

She beat her mighty wings up to the human camp. She whispered the silent good byes to the world  the Powers created, the world they had all tryed to protect, and landed in front of the so called king. "The last one has come too us," he smirked. "Face your doom, Dragon. Or should I say Claaws? Trader."

no time to think. To worry. To listen to the screams around her. She lunged for his throat. It was only a small crack, but with that crack came freedom. But as she bit down, a sour liqued flouted into her mouth, drying out everything it touched. She couldn't keep it from sinking into her body. She couldn't hold her ground as she fell beside the Human King. In her last dying breath, a drop of blood made a flower. Of which glowed like her mother. There was one beautiful peatle, bright and seeping with a hidden darkness. The rest were ghoastly, as if they didn't really exist. "The last of six has fallen," she stampered, as the golden peatle dislodged itself from the flower, making the stem crumble and the ghoasts disapear. "Be prepaired to enter a world of peirl. Of suffering. The Powers will return, if not soon, then later, if not later then soon, and every animal and human alike will suffer... in...our...wrath."

then the peatle hit the ground, and Dragon was gone. A spirit in the peatle that had combined with a black tooth from the dead dragon. And there she waited. Planing revenge. Feeding her wrath...and greed.

i hope you like, I only used Angle Wolf in the first part as an example. Any power can die first, and I was hoping with that seen I wrote first. But I don't know if Dragon should die first or last, tell me which one you guys like better.

But everyone can come up with their own. That was just mine. Please tell me if you like it.

I like it, but with a few changes. Here's my version. I tryed to come up with something to put all the pieces together, to use everyone's ideas. 

So I think the dagger that killed Lunee was thrown by the boy, and I think that the arrow that killed the Unicorn Mare (I don't know Her name yet) was shot by the boy, and of course Claaws was killed by him, too, but she was the only one of the powers that saw him when they died. It happened to the power of Fin, the power of Claw, the power of Wing, all of the powers. But the boy didn't know that the instruments were born. And the powers spirits didn't go into the instrument, but their power did. Whatever power they held went into the instrument. The howl went into the whistleharp, and the power of howl, or voice, what gives all animals the ability to speak or make sounds, is in the whistleharp.  So the power of tooth went into a horn made of a tooth, the power that gave animals the ability to bite, and eat. And so on. Then the animals of the forest guarded those 'powers'. They knew that they could summon the creatures back.

And the wolf that came out of the forest to guard the power was my grandmother. I am related to Lunee somehow. And did you ever notice, lunar is having to do with the moon? Lunee has the same root, meaning moon. My name is Moonshadow. Pretty cool, huh?

also Zephyra is derived from the Greek false god, Zephyr, the God of wind. I think all the powers should have some name that has something to do with their power. Just another idea.

please tell me if you like this. I want your honest opinion. If you don't like it, just say that. If you like it say that you like it. Don't just say it to be nice. Don't worry, I can handle the truth.

Hiya Moonshadow! In a previous post, you said that my Warhorn could replace the whistle harp. But if you changed your mind, that's fine. I just kind of feel that since the power is Howl, a Warhorn would be more appropriate than a Whistle harp.

I like your reference to mythology:) Yet if someone's name doesn't match the power, would they have to change their name?

If you allow the Warhorn to be the instrument, and I have it... Maybe the wolf who took the power of Howl into safe keeping had a sister. The sister(who is my ancestor) and the brother (who is your ancestor) developed a stronghold, where they kept the Power locked away . The power was passed down the side of your ancestor, while the sister's children and grandchildren guarded it. They became known as the wolf priests/priestesses of the north. Then one day, a priestess of the sister's bloodline got a silly idea into her head that the power should belong to her side of the family, and she stole it. So that's why Neminem has the Warhorn , and you want it back. Not sure if I like this idea. Eh, it was just brainstorming anyway.
