Name: Jolon Tahiir
Age: 11
Gender: Male
Species: snox (region: desert)
Occupation: none
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
Jolon has brown fur(kind of close to french grey color) with light brown streaks. His skin is bright red with smooth round patches on his cheeks kind of like what iguanas have. He has purple eyes and a big bushy tail. He also has a split horn.
PERSONALITY
Jolon is a kind of strange kid. He trusts people a little too easily, though he tries not to. In his homeland, where he lived was very "safe" and so coming to an area like this, it's hard to adjust. He tries to be 'rough' with people but it doesn't go so well.
HISTORY
Jolon and his family fled from the desert after some things went down with his father and a higher up. They fled the the winter lands thinking their foes wouldn't care enough to actually push that far to find them.
Though they thought life would be safer here, it proved to be quite difficult in other aspects. They had no ties and finding work was hard, especially being foreigners. One morning Jolon's father went out hunting and did not return.
Not long after, Jolon and his sister found themselves alone. They decided this place was no good for them and they decided that maybe if they traveled deeper into the winter lands they could find somewhere better. Somewhere that they could really stick their feet too and find a better life.
FUTURE
Oh no! Spoilers!
A long time after his adventures and running around, Jolon eventually becomes a servant to a lord of the Speared Mammoth kingdom in the winter lands.

ABOUT THE SPECIES:
Snoxes are a made up species Piratekay and I came up with. They live on a planet that has two suns and one moon(which has icey rings). Both suns are a lot weaker then the sun we know of here on earth. The weaker suns rotational pattern keeps it mostly on one side of the planet at most times. Because of the odd makeup of their solar system, their lands are extremely divided. There are three major zones, the Tundra, the Desert and the Riverlands.
Tundra:
These lands are usually ruled by kings and there are many kingdoms spread out throught the land. Some do business with fellow kings in the desert but it is rare. Though they do trade with people in the riverlands, they don't have "connections".
Snoxes who live in the tundra uaually have teal, green, blueish, skin and white fur. Their skink is usually pale as well. However there are snoxes that end up with black fur colors due to mutation, though it is rare snoxes are not usually surprised to see a snox with black fur.
The tundra is gigantic and the lands there are very diverse. Even though it is freezing, there's lots of different things going on there. Many different kinds of alien plants and animals have found their way to exist here. There are parts of the land that are a lot like Alaska that go through weeks without days or nights as we know them. Some lands are burdened with constant storming, and some are sat upon volcanoes.
There are many hotsprings about and the snoxes love these, however some are deadly. Over centuries of living there most snoxes have it mapped out where the deadly hot-hot springs are. But before that, many has fallen victim to them. They are so hot they melt the skin right off the bone. Some kings use them as punishment for law-breakers.
In some parts of the land the storms get so bad the snoxes believe that the gods are angry and when the "sky touches the ground" they think it is the gods' finger reaching down and smiting the land.
Desert:
These lands are ruled similarly to how the tundra lands are ruled. However the culture seems to be be "open" to certain things. It's not uncommon for a man to have more wives. Even a woman can have more husbands, depending on her status. Also married couples might happily invite other men or women to join them for a time of pleasure.
Snoxes that live in the desert usually have dark green, dark teals, reds, browns, and cactis sort of colored skin and brown, tan colored furs. Of course there are always exceptions to the rules. They also usually have either a subtympanic shield or some spikey spines on their cheeks/jawline. They may even have spines on their ears! Their fur is also more wirey as to handle the extreme heat better.
The desert lands, like a normal desert, have very hot days and freezing cold nights. They have giant, beautiful, cactis trees that hold water for them. Usually in the days the people will travel out and chop off their branches to store them away.
The desert is just as diverse as the tundra, as some of it is just dead and dry then there are parts beautiful and full of life. When dragons still roamed, these lands are where you would most likely find them. In fact, the desert has such beautiful and amazing animals that many of them are captured and smuggled to the tundra and sold in the markets. Many die, but the ones that live are sold for quite the price! It's common for royalty to purchase such things.
Weather wise, some areas are prone to sand storms and some to flash floods.
Riverlands:
The riverlands are not ruled at all like the desert or tundra lands. They live off the earth and the person in charge is more like a cheif and tends to be a woman. She is looked upon as a motherly figure and keeps the peace.
Snoxes in the riverlands usually have darker green and blue colored skin, mostly colors to help them blend into the waters. Their fur is usually bright greens are teals as well.
The riverlands are the most dangerous to live in. They have poison bugs and giant fish that can swallow a snox whole. Which is very dangerous because it requires a lot of swimming and boating to live here! The lands they live on are cut up into many islands, some are only big enough to have a single living place, some are big enough to have a small village.
Some of the bugs that live there can kill a snox with one sting, some snoxes grow up with scars from vicious bugs.
And though the fish are dangerous, some snoxes have learned to ride fish from place to place.
Some people in this land leave on trade boats and never come back, because they get tired of the horrible bugs and monstorous fish. For some life gets better, for some it doesn't sadly.
Mermaids:
Mermaids exist and have their own ruling system set up. A king only has one son in his lifetime, but many daughters and as many wife as he wants. Mermaids are not shy and interact with snoxes who live near the oceans. They kill pirates from time to time and sometimes they just seduce land snoxes that they find attractive.
Other Info:
All breeds of snoxes can have tusks but not all do. All have horns, though as extreme form of punishment it can be chopped off. Many snoxes rub horns as a sign of affection.
Snoxes of royalty have white horns and are only bred with others with white horns unless they are lesser royalty. (Like if a king has 10 daughters they could marry some off to a lord or a high ranking man even if his horn wasn't white). Other snoxes, from peasants, to lords, to preists, have a horn matching the color of their skin. Snoxes with magical powers have blue or purple horns.
Snoxes with magical abilites are usually trained only in healing. This is because Royalty is always looking for healers. However this is not always the case! Some can learn dark, dark magic.
Both the Tundra and Desert areas have different forms of slavery. Many times the slaves may be snoxes from the riverlands. Or it can be a defeated land's former people. That, or peasants that have been stolen and sold into slavery.
Bad words. Snoxes have their own forms of slurs and curses. Racial slurs are Iglits(for Tundra snoxes) Sandy or sandies(Desert snoxes) and slickbacks(Riverland snoxes). Then there are words for snoxes who "get around" like "Wornhorn" and "Patchback".
Many snoxes in this age believe that if there is a night without a moon, they will not get pregnant.
When it comes to things like homosexuality, it all depends on where you are. It is least accepted in the Tundra lands, some kings would kill a man if he knew he was homosexual. However some kings simply look the other way.
Animals:
They have certain animals that he have but they don't exactly look how they do here. They have dogs, and cats, and horses, and bears, but then they also have unicorns, dragons and the such.
Dragon are believed to be extinct at the moment as one hasn't been seen in ages (however they are simply hibernating).
Giant squids are seen as guardians of the oceans by most who live near the ocean.
Plants:
Certain plants are used for pure enjoyment, some for healing.
To those who actually read all of that crap, you are beautiful and I love you.
