Snarky Cythra Feralclaw née Seord Wildclaw, Legendary Bard, Word Mistress of Elanthia

…yes, THE Cythra


Description

Cythra has cat-slitted violet eyes. Her black-streaked auburn mane is very long and wavy, and is worn loose. She has glittered silver fur, a straight tail and a lithe figure. She is tall for a Prydaen.

She has a swirling diagonal pattern of tiny silvery painted stars running from her forehead to cheekbone.

Her cheekbone has a tattoo of interlocking red, blue and black spirals forming a triskele pattern.


Cythra affirmed her vows with Eurynomile before the gods in the 5th month of Uthmor the Giant in the year of the Crystal Snow Hare, 440.


Plague, Cythra's pet kitten:

a chubby chocolate brown kitten with deep brown eyes and a fluffy tail

Oversized paws with tiny claws add to the awkward look of this pudgy creature. Its whiskers stick out around a heart-shaped nose in dark lines and from above each round eye. A black leather collar circles its neck and dangles a round medallion with the word "Fluffy" etched into it.

Stories

Hamster and Gerbil.

Second place winner, White Rose Talent Show, Uthmor 439

Prize: A rose-carved ivory-inlaid music box sprinkled with tiny sapphire stars.

Scattered across the intricately detailed rose that is carved onto the ivory cover, small glimmers of indigo tinged light reflect the colorful array of seven-pointed star-shaped sapphires. On the back of the music box is a small metal key, while a flowing platinum-inlaid inscription is engraved along the bottom. There appears to be something written on it.

On a small raised platform inside the music box is the figure of a nymph, made of porcelain and clad in green silk leaves layered over each other to form a robe.

An ivory-inlaid music box reads: Order of the White Rose -- Talent Show Winner -- Uthmor 439


A Morning Stroll

First place winner, White Rose Thorny Storytime, Moliko 439

Prize: a supple emerald leather journal painted with a white rose.

Creased leather protects the pages of the journal, its cover embossed with a central budding rose with a glistening seven-pointed star-shaped emerald at its core. Platinum-infused ink details the back cover with an elegant inscription. There appears to be something written on it.

Prize: A regal frog-shaped alerce humidor boasting a gilded glass crown.

Bearing a majestically serene expression, the fanciful amphibian holds one limb aloft, as if conferring a royal blessing to all who witness it. A small carved cigar is borne between the webbed fingers of its opposite hand. Limned in shimmering gold leaf, the creature's glass crown is set with delicate hinges to form a lid for the whimsical container, while a small inscription is detailed beneath.

Poorest Prose Winner (First Place), Tavern Troupe Bad to Verse bad poetry contest -- 34 Larisa 443.

Prize: A clunky wooden tankard etched with whimsical lettering (from Prose and Cons).

The words take up most of the surface space on the drinking vessel, leaving little room for further design beyond the tiny animals carved amid each of the letters. A gently curving handle is affixed to the side, leaving it slightly crooked due to spacing. There appears to be something written on it.

A clunky wooden tankard reads: "Pun and Done!"
