Although a pure bred, Tallulah retained the recessive gene from both of her parents, making her fur a very distinguishable light chocolat. She is almost stripe-less, only a few presenting themselves on her forehead, a couple on her back, two on her right wrist, and a long one that wraps around her left calf (all black in color). Her soft turquoise hair has a tendency to be tangled up due to her constant habit of banning it into a messy bun. Despite her age, she remains rather short. Her body a bit on the bony side, she is often perceived to be weak. What she lacks in strength though she makes up with agility as will be discussed later.

Her clothing tends to be as freeform as her personality, their colors a range of soft pastels to more earthy tones. She predominantly is seen wearing a small shawl. Under this often appears an airy top that ends in a fluttering pattern much like a skirt at her midsection. An open serong hangs from her waist, dragging on the floor slightly due to her short height. It's a rare occurrence for her to be spotted with any sort of footwear, but if she has to for formality's sake, she'll put on a pair of sandals.

|::Personality::|
An idealist.
Most know Tallulah as someone who is spiritual, her head often times up in the clouds. She's a firm believer of spirits and finds herself most comfortable in natural surroundings. Her heart can range from being soft as a morning drizzle to hard as hail. Most of the time, it's of the former. She herself would much prefer curing over killing; the prospect of getting her hands dirty isn't of her tastes. However, often times when technology comes into play does the fierce hatred deep inside her unravel.

Tallulah finds herself happiest when she has herself kept busy with work. Her mind tends to wander otherwise and she has a bad habit of second guessing herself. It's in these times that she is at her lowest point. Thus, she does all she can to keep her pace up, fearing she will accomplish nothing otherwise. She finds herself close to those that she shares the ship with and enjoys every chance she gets to make life easier for those around her.

Beneath all this, however, can roam a brooding, selfish being. Tallulah truly feels that many of the creatures she runs by are idiots and not worth the efforts of saving. She feels that they have failed to save themselves. Thus, why should the Imperium bother with pity? This remains hidden away for the most of, however, due to the friends she has made who are from planets formerly invaded.

|::Transport::|
On foot.

|::Items::|

Sleep Pods x3 - Picked off a plant from her homeworld. Those unlucky enough to be hit by these might just end up dozing off or otherwise feeling disoriented for a short period of time.
Medical Kit - A messenger pouch containing essentials for coping with poisons, burns, bruises, and scratches as well as shallow to medium depth wounds. She carries this to battle in case her magic should fail her.
Feathered Hairpin - A gift from Andrue following his culture's traditions; this small accessory tucks into the base of her hairband. A few thin strands of Andre's own hair hang from it, stone beads tied to them every couple inches while feathers sprout from the base itself.
UV Glasses - Her glasses are the only modern wear she seems to accept. They will tint automatically to protect her eyes from the ultra violet rays of the sun.

|::Biography::|
Not much is known about Tallulah's past, even among the crew of the Monoceros. It's said she met the Lord herself during the invasion of her very planet and offered her services to him. He had almost laughed at her predicament, but due to her extensive biological knowledge, she was allowed to join the ranks.. She would need training, of course, for dealing with more than just providing herbal remedies. But the air of her self-conscious nature would leave him with an easily controlled marionette. Much like the rest of his crew.

Tallulah became easily accustomed to her new life. She was assigned to the Artyr where a quiet yet assertive mouse by the name of Tarisa along with her companion, Frezul, guided her during her initial training. At first fearful, Tallulah soon befriended many of the crew. She couldn't help but feel touched by the new faces. The tigress came to realize that she had found herself a true family, one that provided her support and respected and even encouraged her ability and talents. She came to realize that many of them had sad stories of their own. But after being recruited by the Lord, they had found happiness.

She, too, had found salvation under his wings. And so with that, she cast away her former surname. Instead, she took on Sonne, a name of a sun goddess and something she felt an appropriate contrast to her Lord's. In the times when the moon had its rest, the sun would rise with its bright ambition to watch over in its place. Perhaps some would find it over-dramatic, but Tallulah couldn't help it. She felt Sarath had opened so many doors for her that before she believed had been shut and sealed away ages ago. She hoped one day she could repay him.

As the years progressed, Tallulah eventually found herself transfered to his very ship, the Monoceros. There, she met her current partner, Andrue, and Jonin. It was also during that time that she decided that what Sarath was doing would better the worlds. Planet by planet, little by little, her decision solidified. These creatures were idiots that only knew death and lacked progress. Sarath interfering was the beginning of their much needed salvation. Tallulah currently continues to work in the medical bay of the Monoceros until further orders are given. While she doesn't see Andrue very much, she enjoys what little time she has with him. He, she, and Jonin have become close over time.

|::Combat Style::|
Although having little knowledge in actual combat, Tallulah has gone through the basic training sequence while under the banner of the Crescent Imperium. Much of her fighting skill depends on her ability with the arts. Perhaps naive, Tallulah uses her magic in more of a defensive manner. She only strikes when she has to, more prone to binding, paralysis and knock out spells. Only when provoked enough will she overstep her boundaries. Because of her lacking endurance, producing large spells one after another will leave her spent in a matter of minutes. Thus, her goal in battle usually pertains to knocking out or capturing her opponent as quickly as possible. If all else fails, the tigress will have no problems with retreat.

|::Skills::|

Green Thumb [Intermediate]
Having been around plants for a majority of her life, Tallulah knows plant life from her homeworld like the back of her hand. This ranges from which ones could poison the body or cause itchiness to others that would help treat a wound or just be a good choice of flavoring in a stew. Due to this, she is often times the one sent out to investigate the greenery of planets and discover what could best aid in Sarath's cause.

Medic [Advanced]
Studying with Frezul and Tarisa and on-site practice has transformed Tallulah into an amazing medic. While she could not perform open heart surgery, she has the ability to mend broken limbs, treat deep wounds so long as they do not pierce vitals, and so on. On the field, her abilities are more limited due to lack of equipment, of course.

Sorceress [Intermediate]
While Tallulah packs a powerful punch in her spells, she has never had any proper training in control and using what stamina she has confidently and purposefully without wasting excess. As such, she draws out more mana than she usually needs to, resulting in her tiring out more easily. Regardless, her spells prove to be strong and effective.

Linguist [Beginner]
Although her planet has its own native tongue which is vastly different from that of Earth, Tallulah has a bit of talent for picking up on languages. Although fluency isn't immediate, she has given technology some room to help her develop it quicker than usual.

|::Occupation::|

|::Race::|
Furry [German Shepherd]

|::Relation to Tallulah::|
Crewmate

|::Homeworld::|
Selaquin

|::Appearance::|
His fur follows the traditional coloring of a German Shepherd, being semi-long with balanced shades of black and brown. His hair is of medium length and fans over his warm brown eyes. Although often having an unruly appearance, he tends to take better care when Tallulah is around. He's short for a male of his age, only standing at 5'9". His body is built slightly but not overbearing. It's evident that he avoids fighting when he can.

His clothing ranges in hues but otherwise remains fairly similar. A vest adorns his upper half while light weight slacks cover his lower. Like Tallulah, he isn't fond of wearing shoes, but he will otherwise be set with a pair of boots. It's usually only when he becomes engaged with an enemy though.

|::Personality::|
A protector.
While Jonin tends to be calm and good-mannered regularly, if there's a threat, it's certain that he will be the first to step between it and those he's closest to. This bold nature isn't typically seen though and to that a lot of the crew take him to be lazy and a slacker. About the only thing that he seems interested in is reading the books he's collected from various other planets that fell under Sarath's banner.

Closest to Tallulah, Jonin enjoys conversing with her about anything and everything... so long as it's not about his background. Most take this coolly, but some have been spiteful of his secrecy. It's rare for him to take offense though, and even when he does, Jonin is quick to forgive and forget. He'd rather not have anymore enemies than he already has to deal with.

|::Background::|
Jonin Servargus lived any ordinary life on Selaquin. He was raised by loving parents, well educated, and planned on wedding to a lovely chihuahua when Sarath first made his intentions clear. Jonin joined the others in the fight against him at first, but he soon realized that Sarath had become too powerful of an opponent. In the end, he surrendered and offered to serve under him if only to spare the lives of his family and fiance. He traveled in the Monoceros with his Lord for several years until the invasion of Antai.

The natives of the planet were unlike anything Sarath's army had ever encountered before: shapeshifters that could reconstruct their hands to mimic whatever weapon his lackeys could throw at them. That's what they believed at first. Soon, strange occurrences began to happen among the ships themselves. Once friends suddenly raised their weapon on their kin. One of the ships fell into complete disarray. Sarath quickly realized that the shapeshifters could change more than just their forelimbs. They could morph their entire appearance. He quickly ordered for everyone on the ship to be taken out.

Sarath just about had it with such a retched, useless planet. He made plans to annihilate it due to the creature's despicable powers. Even with a few recruited, it was nothing compared to the damage they'd just caused his force. That's when he found out about the natural power source they'd been hiding all that time. While it was something sacred to the natives, to Sarath, it was just another tool to add to his belt in the struggle to overtake all worlds. His rage tore the shapeshifters to ribbons. His ships ripped open the hidden sanctuary while wave after wave of Sarath's infantry hit their capitol. Jonin was among them.

He managed to corner the last survivors with his teammates and take them out. However, due to his hesitance in battle, Jonin lost much of his credentials While it was won and the enemy completely wiped out, he was sent away from his troops to recuperate after being thoroughly punished by Sarath himself for such insubordination. This saw to his meeting with Tallulah. Although much of the crew remained suspicious of him at first, things soon settled in the Monoceros and life went on.

|::Weapons::|
His own two hands.

|::Name::|
Andruje
[Surnames don't existent in his homeworld.]

|::Alias::|
Andy, Andrue [pronounced "Andrew"]

|::Age::|
Twenty-Eight

|::Height::|
5'8"

|::Weight::|
164.5lbs.

|::Occupation::|
Weapons Specialist and Trainer

|::Race::|
Furry//Saber Tooth

|::Relation to Tallulah::|
Loved One

|::Homeworld::|
Basniz

|::Appearance::|
Golden brown fur extends for most of his body, interrupted by a stray spot here and there. These dark brown spots, however, vary in size from being quite small to spanning half his back. Andrue is built and rugged. This comes from his previous lifestyle. He takes better care of himself now, but it's really only to impress Tallulah and nothing more. His hair still hangs over most of his face though, including his green eyes, and he takes forever to shave his facial fur which gives him the look of having a beard due to one of his spots being right underneath his muzzle.

Andrue isn't a fan of fashion, considering he never wore clothes back home. As such, the only time he really does is with anyone he deems worthy of the trouble. This includes Tallulah and Sarath, of course. Even still, he usually only dawns a pair of pants that look about as rugged as he does.

|::Personality::|
If circumstances had been different, Andrue could have been a very open and forgiving feline like that of his counterpart, Tallulah. However, the harsh realities he's faced has led the saber tooth to become gruff and reserved. He thinks highly of himself and has little respect for amateurs and incompetence. From first impression, it would seem highly unlikely that a relationship would happen between he and Tally. Perhaps, in the end, they're just using each other.

Andrue takes his days one at a time without any regrets. His coldness can frighten those around him. It's obvious he's killed before and he probably wouldn't think twice were he to do it again. To that end, he is heavily respected by those he deems worthy and feared by most anyone else. He fears very little yet can be easily angered if the right buttons are pressed. One of those being the threatening of Tallulah's life. The other being Jonin's aloofness.

|::Background::|
Tallulah knows very little of his past, despite knowing him for a while now. Although she is curious about whatever skeletons are hidden in his closet, she has yet to provide a great enough reason to peel away his shell and thus it remains shrouded in mystery.

Andrue has been a trainer to the ranks for a year or so now and frequently spends his time working out to keep up his strength. This is partly to do with keeping up with his tough appearance but mostly he just finds himself more comfortable in top shape, although he isn't as strong and quick as he used to be.

|::Weapons::|
Retractable claws and whatever cut and dry weapon he finds in the armory.

[I know parts are missing. And they are for a reason. ;D]
