Discription
You see... Remyngton Mason-Wells of Siksraja, a Rakash Empath.
'Human' form:
Remyngton has a high cheekboned kite-shaped face, piercing gold-limned absinthe green eyes, a straight nose and dimples. His raven hair is shoulder length and wavy, and is worn in a careless, windblown arrangement. He has warm caramel-hued skin and a sleek build.
He is a bit over average height for a Rakash.
He appears to be an adult/underdog. (Current Age 21)
His forearm has a tattoo of a murder of shadowy black crows swarming out of the eye sockets of a grinning wolf skull.

a wolfish face, gold eyes, a straight muzzle and dimples, a sable and black coat with tan masking, a long floofy tail and a sleek build.
Usual Attire:
He is wearing a midnight black top hat with a single playing card stuck in the silken band, an enveloping rantija of raw silk, a formal stiff-collared longcoat impeccably tailored from dark starlight velvet, a pure white silk cravat, a jacquard moonsilk vest with polished silver buttons, a high-collared white silk shirt, a wide silversteel wristcuff embedded with a topaz-rimmed black disc, a broad red-gold wedding band engraved with a pair of resting warriors, a dusky asini oath band embedded with shards of uncut kazene, some dusky charcoal breeches composed of westan wool, an elegant asini anklet adorned with scintillating champagne diamonds, and a pair of polished knee-high nauda crafted from supple black leather.
Formal Rakash Attire:
He is wearing a black watered silk rantija(cloak), a shimmering krekls(tunic) of soft spun glitter wool flecked with oravir, a formal white jaspe odaj(toga/robe) engulfed by a kaleidoscope of sky opal butterflies, a broad red-gold wedding band engraved with a pair of resting warriors, a dusky asini oath band embedded with shards of uncut kazene, a pair of cerulean raw silk vikses(wide-legged pants) bearing elaborately embroidered cuffs, an elegant asini anklet adorned with scintillating champagne diamonds, and a pair of polished knee-high nauda(boots) crafted from supple black leather.

General Information
What's in a Name
Remyngton/Remington means place on a river edge or riverbank. Remyngton was born on the river edge of the Faldesu as his parents traveled from Therengia to his father's home in Zoulren. As the Rakash tend to name things very literally his Rakash mother gave him the name Uferalas at birth (Ufe- River Rala- Edge s- denotes masc) but his Kaldar father insisted on him also having a common-tongue name he could actually pronounce as well.
Notable Affiliations
- Bonded To Lord Knight Tankata Mason-Wells
- Citizen of Therengia/Siksraja
Things of Note:
He has Central Heterochromia I tried to use his eye color as a means to showcase his attunement with his more animalistic nature. His eyes are green, with a gold starburst around the pupil and eventually in moonskin (once I can get an alteration) his eyes will be gold with green starbursts around the pupil. He's always a blend of his moonskin and humanoid form hence the eyes, and the fangs.
The rakash race language and culture is based on eastern European cultures with a heavy focus on the Roma/Romani and the language is based heavily on Latvian (also known as Lettish: An Eastern Baltic language belonging to the Balto-Slavic branch of the Indo-European language family) thus when speaking common Remyngton tends to have a moderately heavy accent reminiscent of native Slav speakers. This is expressed by dropping common articles of speech such as the word "the" for playability rather than trying to type a phonetically spelled accent that can be hard for other players to read and to understand espeically readers with reading difficulties like dyslexia.
example:
Everyone else: I am going to the empath's guild.
Remyngton: I go to empath guild.
Real world examples would be similar to Pavel Chekov from star trek (russian) or Gru from despicable me (none defined Eastern European.)
I took his speech patterns from Anton Yelchin's portrayal of Pavel Chekov. His demeanor and physical features are a genderbend on Disney's version of Esmerald where as his personal style is more Regency era England
Apprentices
Remyngton works diligently trying to pair those seeking an apprenticeship with a mentor. If you are interested in being either an apprentice or mentor (empaths only please) feel free to seek him out ig or contact me via Discord.
Remyngton tends to be very selective when choosing an apprentice of his own; his apprentices become part of his family so there is a need for there to be a mutual understanding of expectations. This is a very important part of the game for me as a player and is not something that will be taken lightly when it comes to adding someone to his inner circle. We will need to discuss the expectations and goals for both IC and OOC before a mentor/apprentice relationship will be established.

Alterations
>>>Alterations and other items<<<
a midnight black top hat with a single playing card stuck in the silken band
Shadows seem to play along the edges of the crimson ribbon, accentuating the glossy brightness of the fresh-spilled blood hue. A lone card wedged into the band hides its face, showing only a silhouette of black dragons on a silvery back.
a formal stiff-collared longcoat impeccably tailored from dark starlight velvet
Subtly shimmering fabric has been sharply fitted to the wearer, designed to hang to the knee with a razor-sharp hemline. A standing collar and elegantly tailored lapels create a dashing look when worn, balanced by deep pockets resting at the hip. Secured by a row of gleaming silver buttons that stand in high contrast to the midnight hues of the outerwear, upturned cuffs give a small glimpse of the pale moonsilk lining concealed within.
a jacquard moonsilk vest with polished silver buttons
Tailored to fit snugly to the torso, this paisley patterned garment is designed to highlight a trim masculine waistline when worn. Secured by a row of polished fastenings, their silver-tone complements the stubbled variations in the pale blue fabric.
a glossy rainbow lapel pin
Expertly crafted into a gentle curve, the minute pin features every color of the spectrum caught in its enameled surface. Clearly lovingly buffed to a soft shine, it serves as a smart and simple accent to any lapel.
an elegant asini anklet adorned with scintillating champagne diamonds
The simplicity of the cerise-hued, brush-finished asini anklet is embellished with radiant champagne diamonds meticulously placed to read "Tankles". Decadent chocolate opal infinity symbols embrace the moniker on each side.
An asini anklet reads:
"Jo Dzive" (Translation: For Life)
(Designed and created by Kaelie to celebrate Tankata and Remyngton(aka Ankles)'s Marriage)
a pair of polished knee-high nauda crafted from supple black leather
Worked to a buttery-soft finish and buffed to a muted sheen, the leather of this formal version of traditional Rakash footwear is held in place by crisscrossing straps. Secured by leather-covered buttons, each adjustable strap allows for a seamless look creating a perfect fit for nearly any wearer. Thickened padding creates a sole-like footbed of unmatched comfort, making these boots as functional as they are fashionable and versatile.
Pets
Companion
Zurka - A fluffy black rat
(Rat in Rakash)
House
Remy Junior - a pot-bellied Siksrajan wolf pup
The Siksrajan wolf pup is a large-pawed youngster that combines an oversized head with a short body. His fur is a glossy red shade, slightly wavy, that lies close to his skin along the body, longer along the ears and tail. A white bib marks his chest, bright against the deep chestnut of the rest of his coat.
Horse:
Rakoni - A white horse
(Cloud in Rakash)
The white horse is sixteen hands high with pink skin and a pure white coat. It has a white mane and tail. It is a mare with no other markings.
The horse is wearing an aubergine saddle with a prismatic starcrasher pommel, a spun rainbow caparison veiled in spun glitter, a spun rainbow saddle pad, and a gloaming bridle swathed in spun glitter.
a gloaming bridle swathed in spun glitter
Erratic flecks of tyrium in the weave manage to reflect tiny motes of light in gloaming hues. Chaotically folded and twisted about itself, the loop of twilight-purple material resembles the outline of a rogue Moongate. Centered on the browband is a spectrolite spider that shifts from unearthly blues and eerie greens to fiery oranges and reds as the light plays across its surface. Its loimic setting casts it in a silly dance, with spindly legs that scrabble at the air.
a spun rainbow caparison veiled in spun glitter
When unfolded and straightened, the sheer, blue-black overlay is practically invisible, appearing more substantial as it twists and folds upon itself. Beneath, all colors of the spectrum coalesce in a deceptively chaotic spiral of fractals and geometric abstractions.
an aubergine saddle with a prismatic starcrasher pommel
Elongated zenzics, their bodies like tufted caterpillars or tinsel streamers, border the skirt and flaps. Resembling an unfortunate cross between a ten-legged arachnid and a colorful starfish, the loimic pommel is tinged with an indigo opalescence.
a spun rainbow saddle pad
Embroidered along the border in metallic silver thread is an elongated zenzic.
Remyngton's Homes
[A hallway somewhere in Dirge]
[Tank and Remy's Apartment]
Screens of soft white ricepaper and a polished satinwood floor covered by a cream-colored sheepskin rug enclose this small room. In one corner lies an overstuffed feather bed, and near the bed sits a rustic coffee table topped with a mosaic of slate tiles with some stuff on it. A carved brick hearth burns along the far wall with an icesteel aquarium mounted in an exquisite smokewood frame hanging above it. The room holds a faint scent of oshu'mary.
You also see a pot-bellied Siksrajan wolf pup, an iron-trimmed teak door, a pile of leaf green silk cushions that is facing the table, a pile of leaf green silk cushions that is facing the table, an ornate white ash weapon rack with a couple of things on it, a gold-plated bar cart with glass shelves with a bottle of blue absinthe labeled "Essence of Passion" on it and a hand-carved pale ash armor stand with a few things on it.
[Siksraja Outskirts, Kads Raja]
While the ground cover here has been thinned, a sizeable stand of old oak guards the space between the forest and the clearing before the lake. Beneath the oaks, accommodations have been constructed for those who did not wish to reside in the Village proper or for travelers. You also see a cozy oak frame cottage, an unremarkable cottage, a thatch-roofed oak frame cottage sitting behind terraces of red-bricked seasonal gardens and a red fir frame home.
[Remyngton's Home]
A deep brown leather reading settee with brass feet and a narrow golden oak bar with milled edges with some stuff on it rest upon the polished oak floor of this small room. A fieldstone fireplace with an oak mantel, with an ebonwood violin hanging above it, burns from its resting place at the edge of the sheepskin rug covering the oak floor. Off-white applewood walls enclose the area, holding in its faint smell of apples.
You also see a pot-bellied Siksrajan wolf pup, a simple off-white applewood wall with bookshelves with a couple of things on it, a broad golden oak bookcase with glass shelves with several things on it, a tall oak bar stool that is facing the fireplace, a tall oak bar stool that is facing the bar, a tall oak bar stool that is facing the bar, a tall oak bar stool that is facing the bar, a brass-trimmed oak weapon rack with a couple of things on it and an elegant oak and brass armor stand with a ceremonial battle odaj emblazoned with an image of the three Rakash Immortals on it.
They are assumed to be apart of Remyngton's home until
someday when we can have more than a one room house.
[Remyngton's Bedroom]
Polished oak floors and soft blue velvet-draped walls enclose this serene bedroom. A large painting of a swirling night sky over a dark landscape resides above an oversized silverwood box bed resting upon a plush clouded arzumos-fur rug nestled between matching silverwood nightstands. An small oak-mantled fireplace burns along the far wall brining warmth to the faintly lavender scented room. A ornate silverwood wardrobe stands proudly next to a simple rice-paper dressing screen obscuring the view of a small alcove. You also see a small oak-framed window with frosted glass panes and a carved oak bedroom door.
[Remyngton's Washroom Alcove]
White marble floors and glass diamond tile walls without a speck of dirt show the extreme care taken with cleanliness here. A glazed ceramic wash basin with a fluted brim with a polished glass mirror surrounded by an ornate lunate frame above it rests at the edge of a small plush oval rug dyed in various shades of blue marbled with white. A silverwood towel rack stands opposite the basin's elegantly carved stand upon which several fluffy white towels are neatly draped. You also see a deep blue watersilk grooming pouch cinched with satin cords resting on a polished oak shelf and a simple rice-paper dressing screen.
Things to look at:
A deep brown leather reading settee with brass feet
Resembling an armchair crossed with a chaise lounge, the comfortable piece of furniture has two armrests and a back at the top of the seat. A long upholstered extension allows the reader to put their feet up.
a narrow golden oak bar with milled edges
On the oak bar you see an icesteel aquarium mounted in an exquisite smokewood frame, a paper notebook titled "My Shopping List", a cut glass decanter of amber brandy, a black tursa stein embellished with silver scrollwork, a luxurious rainbow feather quill with a golden nib, an illuminated prayer book, a blue notebook with a dirt-smudged binding, and an oiled leather-bound spellbook.
Aquarium
Clear water fills an icesteel aquarium mounted in an exquisite smokewood frame, in which swims a dainty silver-blue fanfish. At the bottom of the tank, clusters of blue-green waterferns provide a frame for a bed of irregular blue glass beads.
A fieldstone fireplace with an oak mantel
Rough stones supply the front facing of the fireplace, each one irregularly shaped and of different colors. A sturdy plank set across two triangular supports forms a practical shelf above the firebox.

OOC Stuff
I play Remyngton as an PvP Open character and will continue to do so unless this openness begins to be abused. I have zero issues with my character dying, or dying repeatedly if it serves a purpose for a storyline or event or just to spur a fun bit of dialog and interaction, just don't go crazy with it. I'm here to train, interact, and have fun just like everyone else.
I am *usually* actively training between the hours of 8am-8pm est but available for RP opportunities from 6pm-10pm est. I can and will RP outside of that window but in general try to stick to that schedule unless other things are going on.
