Many years later, you are but a
youth. Like many people your age, you are required to do several
tasks to help your family survive the elements. Also like most your
age, you have been hounded about the dangers of the woodland
outside of town, and how you should never go anywhere
without your blinding rune clasped around your neck. One day,
however, you wake up a little too late, as in in the afternoon.
Panicked about facing your mother's wrath for not getting your
chores done, you frantically get dressed and hurry out of the house
to get started on your first task, which is gathering firewood for
the winter. However, in your rush, you have left your blinding rune
behind. A possibly deadly mistake.
POV: HULDREFOLK

You, like the rest of your people,
rely on the forest for survival. If it thrives, so do your kind. If
it is destroyed, so too shall your people be. That is why the
invaders aren't welcomed, for you know they will only destroy your
home. However, humans are inventive creatures, and have found a way
to enter the forest undetected. You and the rest of the residents
have to helplessly watch as the humans cut down your home to fit
their ever-growing population. Then, one day, you notice some
children in the woods. Wait. Children? You realize they must have
forgotten whatever was keeping them hidden! You now have a choice
to make: will you have mercy on these souls and attempt to help
them get home safely, or will you take this as an opportunity to
exact revenge on the people of Dagbie?

HUMAN: Along with being a species all their own, this is also the most common disguise used by the Huldrefolk to lure true humans astray. What they lack in magical prowess, they make up for in ingenuity, and adaptability.
HULDREFOLK: derived from the Scandinavian verb 'hylia' meaning "to hide", the Huldrefolk are dangerous creatures, who in this story inhabit the Huldre Woods that surround Dagbie. Their physiology is almost as widely ranged as their morality. Some, if treated with respect, will help out humans, while others like to pull tricks on them, and others have a downright bloodlust for mankind. In this version, their magic will also be stronger at night time. There are many different types, such as:
Huldra/Skogsra: Nymph-like creatures appearing in Scandinavian mythology. While they mostly appear human, one thing that sets them apart is their cow tail (Huldra) or fox tail (Skogsra) and a hollowed out back like a tree trunk. They are masters of allure, females particularly, and can easily lead humans astray, never to be seen again.They themselves can also pose as humans quite easily, so long as their hollow backs and tails remain out of sight.
Nokken: Dangerous water spirits of Scandinavian lore. They are mostly depicted as men who sit in the water and play the violin so beautifully as to lure humans into the water. The best hope of defeating them is throwing a piece of metal into the waters they reside in, or saying their true name. However, Nokken can be friendly, and it is said that if you bring one a treat of some kind, he will teach you to play violin as well as he can play.[/b]
Trolls Perhaps the most well-known of the Huldrefolk, the exact appearance of a troll varies from legend to legend. They can be as big as mountains with trees growing on them, or the can be human sized or smaller. They can be good or evil, intelligent or dumb and slow. Some eat humans, others do not. Some can be pretty, though most are considered to be ugly.
Ljosalfar/Dökkalfar: Ljosalfar (Light elves) and Dökkalfar (dark elves) are two contrasting types of elves found in Norse mythology. Dökkalfar are described as having a dark complexion and living underground, whereas Ljosolfar are said to be "brighter than the sun to look at". While in Scandinavian folklore elves are generally more benevolent than Huldrefolk, make no mistake: they can be just as, if not more dangerous with their magical prowess

Username: ZeeTheBee
Character Name: Vigdis
Age: 17 (in elf years)
Gender: Female
Species: Dökkalfar (Dark elf)
Appearance: Dark, inky blue skin, with long black hair Abilities: Teleportationhes the ground, pointed ears, and glowing violet-blue eyes. If you look closely enough, you will see little white freckles on her cheeks that almost resemble stars in the night sky. She wears a dress like this, except in all black and dark blue.
Personality: Cold, indifferent, sarcastic, Vigdis always seems to be annoyed by something. However, she does have a strict moral code, and if you lend her a hand she will always return the favor. Of course, that works the opposite way too.
Nature: (how they would react to a human) Mostly indifferent, she sees most humans the same way humans see insects, and often will just ignore if they're there. However treat her well enough and she just might give you a hand.
Abilities: Vigdis can more or less teleport herself via entering the shadows of objects and coming out of other shadows. She can also turn into a shadow herself, mainly to hide from others. Vigdis also knows a little bit of magic, but she is far from being a master at it.
Weakness: Lantern. The light of a lantern (or any bright lights at all) hurts her eyes and burns her skin, so she will instantly flee from it. This is also why she lives underground.

Character Name: Ekonla
Age: 24
Gender: Female
Species: Skrogsa
Appearance: She has wispy, curly red hair that sits at shoulder length and chocolate brown eyes that glow gold like honey in the sunlight. She wears a white silk dress (example of it put in the spoiler) and a fox tail hanging down at her feet. Freckles dot her cheeks and nose and you can see her hollowed back if you look close enough.
Personality: She acts very motherly and calm, but this is just a disguise to trick the humans. Like a fox, she's extremly sly and cunning, able to slip herself into small spaces.
Nature: (how they would react to a human) Upon seeing a human child, she'd quietly approach them and offer to take them to her home, then she'd proceed to take them into her burrow underground in order to hold them hostage in return for food and water from their parents to give them back. Only few have been returned unharmed.
Weakness: (based on the items listed in the pick one section of the human form) When offered the flowers, she'll gratefully take them and store them in her hollowed back, giving her away instantly. However, she will still attempt to convince them.

It's like the saying I've often been told
"No matter the cost, do things right"
Character Name: Natalia
Age: 20
Gender: female
Species: Dökkalfar
Appearance: red, long and slightly wavy hair, with forest green eyes, she wears tunics created by herself. And doesn’t wear skirts often. Likes charm bracelets, and nature. Spends some nights staring at the sky
Personality: being a Dökkalfar, she is cold towards others. However, she is willing to fight for what she thinks is right, and will not hesitate to injure/kill anyone, she is Super smart, and rather sarcastic. She is ‘nocturnal’ by choice, but sometimes tunnels around during the day.
Nature: (how they would react to a human) she absolutely hates humans, and when she can, kills them and sets cleverly disguised traps, hoping to trap the invisible humans
Weakness: Lantern
Powers: umbrakinesis, she uses it to hurt people— the wounds are internal and take ages to recover, she doesn’t like dracovine and vigdis for making her less unique, seeing as he too has shadow powers (which she considers weak) and he is a dark elf

"No matter the cost, do things right"
Username: Kamini
Character name: Leitem, no family name
Gender: Female
Age: 17
Appearance: here
Personality: At a very young age, she was left in the forest. A group of Skogsra noticed her on the brink of death and took pity on her, taking her in. Due to being raised by them, she had grown to be a cold-hearted killer. She usually doesn’t have any emotion on her face, making it difficult to tell anything about her. She doesn’t have any mercy for those that come across her and will attack with no hesitation. She doesn’t feel any sympathy for others and doesn’t understand much of anything. The rest is probably to be rpd
Pick one: iron scissors

hopefully this is alright ^^’
Character Name: Kaido
Age: 22
Gender: Male
Species: Ljosalfar
Appearance: Kaido is a Ljosalfar with eyes that look like lava. His hair is a deep black and he wears a white cloak with a blood stain design. He wears a white and red long sleeve shirt. The white is the body of the shirt and the red part are his sleeves. He wears all white cargo pants as well as chains coming out of both pockets. His hair is kept in a man bun so it doesn't get into his eyes. He also carries around a katana with a blade stained with human blood making it a blood red color. The sheathe and hilt of his black is all black besides from some blood stains from the humans that have fallen victim to him in the past.
Personality: He is stubborn at times and doesn't interact with many people. If you were to befriend him though, He would prove to be a great ally.
Nature: He is very wary of their presence and scans them to see if they are carrying a weapon on them or not. Humans that come into the forest are usually slaughtered on sight unless bringing cargo. If they are moving cargo, He scares them away to obtain the goodies that they were transporting.
Ability(ies): Kaido possesses the power to control Fire. He is invunerable to fire. With a special purple fire he possesses, he can walk through it and go to a different place if he has two fire portals placed. He can engulf himself in flames for a while but, he will be extremely exhausted afterwards. The plus to this power is that nothing can touch him while he is on fire.
