EMERALDMIST male - winged/fantasy wolf - asexual
It was a dark, misty evening in the jungle. The stars were beginning to appear and the chill of the night began to set in. Nocturnal animals began to scuttle about, which only meant food for any predators living in the area that were brave enough to hunt at night.
Emeraldmist was such a one. He enjoyed the night much more than the day, and generally wished that the night was longer. It was such a nice, peaceful time. The elusive male, winged wolf tended to avoid the prying eyes of the outside world and stayed in his little piece of earth.
As it got darker and darker, Emerald strode further and further from where he had stayed that day. He had no set camp or den, he just slept all over the place, wherever he felt content. He kept his keen eyes open for prey, and looked for every little movement.
Eventually, after a long walk, he spotted something; a snake! He didn't often go after the slithery things, but he was hungry enough to take the risk of getting bitten. Technically the risk was very serious, because he was no more special than the next wolf as far as getting poisoned went. But food was food, he had to make due... food wasn't exactly as plentiful as one would often think in the Jungle.
Stalking forward, soundlessly as a true hunter of the night, Emeraldmist looked for the perfect moment to strike. The snake was large, probably an adder... a very dangerous serpent of the viper family.
Like lightning he struck, grabbing the adder by the base of the neck and engulfing it in green flame, burning it alive. There was just one problem; he had not taken hold of it as the right place on the neck, and the snake was able to reach around with its sharp fangs and deliver a load of venom into the bridge of his nose. The pain caused him to drop it, but he was enraged and determined to get it anyway.
So he dived after the fleeing animal and this time ripped it to shreds instantly. Once it was dead, he examined himself; some blood trickled down his face, which made him worry. He was never one to panic, but... maybe he should now.

(OCC= I laughed so much: "Cuts Like A Knife, Draz Open" I first thought you were saying like " *cuts with a knife* Draz is open " x'D)
The pale gray brute walked by the jungle. The night was full of mist that probably hid strange, elusive beings. The trees towered high, and the stars shone wildly illuminating the male's striped back. He was hungry, but too lazy to hunt, for he had been walking for hours now.
"Maybe I can spot a hurt animal" He thought. All he had seen in the day was birds, and those were extremely hard to catch. But now the Jungle seemed full of life and new things to discover. Night animals crouched in every corner, and the grass shivered underneath his strong paws. Lazily, he started smelling around, looking for the scent of prey. He walked with the river running at his side for a few minutes, and finally could catch one odor. The odor of blood.
"Maybe I can hunt it" The male thought, thinking it came from another smaller animal, and started following the track. He soon lost interest, but as he saw a blood drop on the floor, he forced himself to keep walking. This was one of Drazonic's Characteristics: He did something intently, then lost interest.

EMERALDMIST male - winged/fantasy wolf - asexual
Emeraldmist panicked.
How could he have been so careless, especially around one of the world's most poisonous snakes?! He needed to find some help soon, but how, out in the Jungle?
No, he couldn't freak out. That would only waste more time. He was not an herbalist by profession, but he had some knowledge of herbs. The winged elemental knew that a yellow flowery plant called tormentil expelled poison; he could really use some that right now.
He was sure that it did not grow in the Jungle, but maybe it did. Maybe near a waterfall. Getting up and rushing forward, taking the snake with him because he intended to eat it later and not make this whole thing a waste, Emeraldmist went in search of the plant and forced himself to focus, and not panic.
He knew of a waterfall nearby actually, so he headed there. On his way, he caught the scent of someone nearby; a wolf. He even saw the wolf just ahead of him, a gray male with darker stripes and green markings.

Walking near by, he smelled a wolf, and after a minutes, finally saw the male approaching to him.
"H-h-hey" Drazonic said, nervous and slow "Who are you?" he now talked with a bravier, deeper voice.
He really wished the black and green male in front of him didn't want trouble. He didn't feel like fighting, and he had been alone for quite a long time. He could use to have a friend.
Draz realized that the male had green, shiny wings, and appreciated them as their feathers blowed with the wind. It didn't really surprise him. He had seen a three-headed dog, so nothing really could. And Drazonic himself wasn't normal, for the Earth would quiver underneath his paws when angry.
His tail was low, resting near his hind paws. His ears remained still, ready to change positions if needed. His face was emotionless, but his eyes sparkled with curiosity.
[OCC= Sorry, so short]

EMERALDMIST male - winged/fantasy wolf - asexual
The wolf spoke to him, and he curtly replied, being in a panicked rush, not knowing whether he should ask the stranger for help or be on his way. "I was bitten by an adder, can you please help me? Do you know where I might find an herb called tormentil?" He didn't even introduce himself, just explained straightforwardly his dire situation.
Why me...? he thought sadly.
The snake bite was beginning to sting his flesh badly now, and a drop or two of the venom had oozed out. Scarlet blood continued to trickle down his face and onto the ferny ground.
He couldn't tell whether he was experiencing the symptoms of being poisoned yet or if he was just freaking out and imagining it. Emeraldmist was always a brave wolf, and he was even now, but he did not feel brave.
It was a rare occasion for him, but he was becoming very afraid. He began to shake.

Draz widened his eyes as the black and green wolf spoke "Y-yes. That's a very dangerous snake" He said as he examined the wound breefly "Come, follow me fastly. And do not enter in panic, it'll just make things much worse" He instructed, and trotted forward "Where did I saw one...?" He thought, desesperatedly "Oh, yes, in the pond!" Draz remembered.
"Yes, we're going the right way" The male said when he saw a bush of flickering yellow flowers on the distance. "We're still far, but if we run, we'll be there in a few minutes" He muttered, almost for himself "But watch your step".
The Pond was a beautiful place, the stars shone on the sky, and the pond reflected them. The trees towered tall all around, and some fireflies flew by. It was such a shame they did not have time to appreciate it at all.
Draz walked to the bush "These are Tormentils, right?" The male asked, though he was sure they were.

The pain was getting worse every second that went by, and Emeraldmist wished he had never even attempted to go after the serpent. It had been a terrible idea.
Taking the advice of the gray and green wolf he had just met, the winged elemental calmed himself. He focused on hope, and not on the problem. "I will follow you," Emeraldmist breathed quietly. "Thank you."
Raising his paws, he dashed after the stranger as he led him to where he would help him. He was very appreciative of the help. Beginning to enter into a state of shock, for lack of a better word, the world around him seemed to slow down. He took in the beauty of nature for a split second.
It felt like eternity before they came to a stop, but it was obviously only minutes. Perking his ears up at the bush nearby, he noticed that it was the tormentil he'd been needing.
Answering the stranger's question, he approached him and began sniffing the pale yellow flower petals, "Yes, this is it." All he needed to do was chew it a bit and put it on the bite. With that intention, he took a mouthful of about three of the flowers and chewed them to near semi-liquid, being sure not to swallow any of it. Then he took it out of his mouth and applied it as a poultice onto his wound.

"Phew" Draz was relieved. "I'm very glad it is" He said as he watched the stranger chew the leaves and put them into the wound "Do you need help with that? The male asked, somewhat worried.
After some seconds he couldn't help it "What's your name? Where do you come from?" Draz said, without minding if the other wolf knew he was curious: he was sure this Wolf wasn't dangerous, at least not to him.
Draz thought that maybe the Stranger was hungry. He could fish for the both of them later, but he wanted to know who the male was first. Curiosity killed cat and not Wolf after all.

OOC: I have lots of muse today for some reason, hence why this is longer than usual x3
When Emeraldmist saw the first signs of the herb beginning to work, he started to relax himself and his breaths became fairly normal again. He let out a few subtle sighs of relief, sending glances toward the stranger that had helped him, a gleam of genuine thankfulness in his flame colored eyes.
In response to the gray wolf's question about whether he needed help with applying the herb, the winged elemental answered confidently, "No, I should be fine from here. The tormentil will expel whatever poison the adder gave me, and quickly too. After that, I guess I'll just wash off in the shallow part of the river."
He quickly wondered who this wolf was... his name and such. Thinking for a moment about him, he then realized that he may actually need the stranger's help. "Can you see if its working?" he queried curiously. The bite was on the bridge of his nose, and he was having a hard time seeing whether the poison was coming out yet. Emerald could definitely use a hand, or paw, with that.
When the male who had helped him asked what his name was, he perked his ears up and introduced himself gladly. "I am Emeraldmist. I'm a native to the Rainforest, this is my home... and you? Who are you?" He spoke, full of life and showing his true emotions, not being held down by the panic he had felt before.

Drazonic / MALE / GRAY WOLF x ARCTIC WOLF / HETEROSEXUAL / SINGLE Drazonic relaxed, knowing Emeraldmist would eventually get better soon. It had been very risky, and the bite had been lethal, but now he was no longer in so much risk. He felt a rewarding feeling of happiness: he had helped.
Draz nod at the male's question "Yes, sure" He answered, getting near to him to check the bite.
Well it did look better, and the poison was draining off, but it still looked pretty bad, but as he supposed time and tormentil would heal everything, he nod "It is. The poison is draining off, and I think it'll be fine in a matter of days. It looks pretty bad, but it's nothing a little rest and tormentil can't fix after all" He informed him.
"I like your name" Draz added "It really seems to be accurate" He said. And he was right: the green markings of the wolf really made a mist-like effect if you looked with attention. "My name's Drazonic, though you can really call me Draz or anything you like, I guess. I come from the forest. It is not really near from here" He chuckled the last words Draz [/presto*] template by Margie @ Adoxography 2.0
