"Why are you doing this? Just let me go!" She cried. She screamed again as two sets of razor sharp claws raked down her bare back, and finally, she fainted from the pain.
Ohanzhee stood over her, looking down at the woman. He lifted his claws, once shining ivory, now stained sanguine with blood. The panther halfling licked his claws clean, then scoffed down at the unconscious woman.
"Because you're a human." He snarled. He knelt beside her, causing his long, shadowy cloak to billow around him, and continued. "I grow tired with this game." He said, and his claws slashed quickly across her neck, slitting her throat.
As the woman's lifeblood seeped slowly into the ground, Ohanzhee grinned, showing pointed white fangs in his black, cat-like face. He raised his claws, once again bloodstained, to his face and licked them clean, tasting the hot blood with his tongue.
Grimly, the halfling smiled, and laughed before rushing off, leaving the woman's body to turn cold on the dirt.
Night had fallen. The sky was studded with stars, shining like diamonds in the indigo sky. A sickle moon hung in the air forebodingly.
The capital city of Halcyon was still bright, however. Electrically-powered lampposts lined the streets; relics from a ruined time even the historians knew almost nothing about.
The ancient civilization that had left highly advanced relics and ruins all over Athanasia's surface had disappeared loong before human civilization appeared.
To be continued...later.
Rank: Black panther halfling
Gender: Male
Age: 25
Height:
Build: Muscular
Fur: Pitch-black
Eyes: Amber-Gold
Appearance: Tall and muscular, his entire body is covered in short, pitch-black fur. He has catlike ears and tail, fangs and claws, which he puts to good use. His eyes are a golden amber color. He almost always wears a long black cloak that covers him from head to tail, hiding his form from view.
Personality: Cold and cruel, with no mercy and an intense dislike of humans. His kind, the half-animal creatures simply called halflings, have been persecuted by the pure-blooded humans ever since they started to appear about 30 years ago. Ohanzhee has made it his personal agenda to torture and kill humans as his own particular brand of vengeance.
Past: Ohanzhee was born on the world of Athanasia, a medival-like world with few magic-users but lots of magic. (It's got a really long and complicated history, which I will hopefully get onto a website eventually, but not right now.) About 30 years ago, a magical disease swept through, killing most of the ruling family and many others. Women who survived the plague gave birth to half-human, half-animal creatures dubbed halflings. The halflings are treated with suspicion and persecution, and Ohanzhee decides to get revenge...
Dragon: Spotted Death Pest
