Description

ISK I LOVE YOU BUT YOU HATE EVERYONE SO YOU DON'T LOVE ME BACK SO I AM SAD :iconohnoesplz:

Name: Iskanisk
Nickname: Isk
Gender: Stag
Colour: Seal Bay Roan Fawn
Genes: Ee/Ata/nRn/fwfw/nRx
Height: 7.2hh
Age: Born Late Spring, 730 of the New Age (28)
Type: Medium to Heavy
Discipline / Use: Western Isles
Personality: Isk is basically grumpy. He's angry with the world for growing old, he's angry with it for trapping him in a cave, he's angry with it for making half the stuff to eat poisonous, he's angry with it for jaguars, he's angry with it for owls.. the list goes on.
He has done everything for the world. Or for Oakfern, really. Oakfern is his entire world - he is a proud member of the herd, as evidenced by his years serving as a member of the Guard - and then, for the past decade, as it's Captain. He is incredibly shrewd and a cunning tactician, and has lead many a fawnling into an ambush for sacrifice - and many a jaguar has plunged to its death in a dark ravine because of his trickery and quick thinking. He does not delight in causing suffering, as some of the shaman do, but rather in a job well done, said job being protecting the herd and his legacy.
He holds grudges with a vigour that's unusual to see. He remembers slights, and in his former position he could be quick to retaliate; now, his foremost grudge is against his successor. The younger stag was once his second in command, and the success of this guard was one of Isk's proud accomplishments. However, when Isk was challenged for his position and of all things actually lost, he came to deeply resent the young 'pretender'. This is especially true as he is now prevented from even taking guard patrols, let alone engaging in the tactical discussions with the King and Oracle in which he used to be so important a part.

Relations: NPC Shaman Doe, Mother
NPC Guard Stag, Father
2 x NPC shamans, siblings (one stag, one doe)

Offsprings:
Berach, Grumpy Old Man Jnr
Badal, Soldier

Grandoffsprings:
Eslpeth, little owly owl-face adopted granddaughter (Berach's adopted daughter)
Mara, reclusive recluse

Got a fawnling you'd like to be related to Isk? He has loads of NPC offspring (he got around a lot when he was younger) so he'll have a fair few sons, daughters and grandchildren running around Oakfern. Drop me a note if you'd like Isk to be a Dad or Granddad again!

Relationships:
Mindelan, Oracle - his beloved, though they only realised they loved each other when they were already past it
Nazam, King - Isk fears and dislikes the new King and does not believe he is good for the herd


Notes - his left ear is all raggedy - he lost most of it to a jaguar. Cornmarks throughout his roaning from various fights and scrapes. He is the 'squib' of his family - although he has a decent grasp of basic-medium water magic, when he was younger he was more focussed on training to be a guard and never attained the skill of his mother or siblings.
