  • ∂єsтιиє∂ ι∂єитιтч:5 ft 10 inches Gideon Astor Falke
  • яєιиvєитιиɢ тнє ωнєєʟ: Gid,
  • тнє вєʟʟ cнιмєs συт: 18
  • ιииєя ωσякιиɢs: Male
  • нєяσιc ιмαɢє: Gid Gideon is around five foot ten, darkly tanned with a mass of dreadlocks that fall to the middle of his back. He normally pulls them back to keep out of his way when he's working. He has dark gray-green eyes that have flecks of brown and gold in them. His hands are callused and worn from the landscape work that he does around town. He is of a slender yet muscular build and very fit from the manual labor he does every day. He has no need to work out.
    Gid is not one for labels or fashion so the majority of his clothing is hand made or from thrift stores. Most of his clothes are loose and flowing. While he's not one for wearing many accessories he does have a few that he's always wearing. He wears a hemp macrame bracelet on his left wrist, and a teal, green, yellow and brown macrame choker that his younger cousin made him. He wears plastic green glasses because of his allergy to metal and cork posts in his gauged ears. He also owns a pair of wood frames that he wears often, despite his friends telling him they make him look like a hippie.

  • тнє cʟσcкωσякs ωιтнιи: Gid is very down to earth; he's very easy to approach and open to meeting new people. He loves learning new things as well as sharing his knowledge with others. While he's an optimistic, he's not naive about people and how thing work in the world. he's got a personal rule about people messing with him or screwing him over, they are only get away with it once. While he can't tell a joke to save his life, he laughs easily and can see the humorous side of life. There are a few things that he's jaded about: his birth parents and the government. He has no problem taking responsibility for his actions and does so without a complaint. He has high moral standards for himself and often for the people he hangs around with. Sometimes he can come across as judgmental but he tries to keep that to a minimum.

    Gideon dislikes how corporations brainwash kids into believing they need to wear their "brand" clothing to be cool or in the in crowd. It's all for them to make more money off of already hard working people who just want to make their kids happy. Government wise, he hates how the government rules people and doesn't really allow them the freedoms they are supposed to have. His adoptive mother tried to make a greenhouse on her land, which was big enough to have one but the local town government ruled against it saying that they couldn't allow it because her neighbors didn't want it and would find it unsightly.
    The neighbors actually tend to buy a lot of their produce or trade things for her produce so they didn't really care about her having a greenhouse as it would allow them to get it for a longer period of time. The State government pretty much said it because they didn't want her using land they wanted to put a street through or zone as commercial. Imminent domain stuff and all.

  • тυяиιиɢ вαcк тнє ρєи∂υʟυм: Childhood: His childhood started out kind of rocky when his birth mother decided she couldn't take care of him at the age of 5 and left him with her older sister. Thankfully his Aunt was ready to take care of him and made him hers officially before he turned 6. He had a happy life with his Aunt, she was doting, affectionate and very nurturing which was exactly what he needed after having been dragged from one home to the next.
    His first interest in plants was because of his Aunt and her enormous garden which she lived off of all year round. He loved the feel of the dirt between his toes and the feel of belonging and warmth the earth gave him.

    Schooling:
    Because of his constant moving around at a young age, Gid was behind his schooling which prompted his Aunt(mother) to hire a tutor to get him up to speed with other kids his age. It was a tough struggle at first, with Gid preferring to playing in the dirt and plants than sitting inside and being drilled about boring facts. Finally, the tutor had the genius idea of using plants and animals to teach him the things he needed to know. After that it didn't take long to get him to where he needed to be. Elementary school was fun and exciting, especially the kids that he got to play with during recess. The teachers loved him, and liked his unusual questions. He excelled the most in reading and science.

    Middle school was a bit more difficult for him than his elementary years, the kids were mean and very judgmental about what he dressed in and his funny accent. (His mother and the tutor were Amish and spoke dutch around him a lot.) He tried to ignore it, but it just got worse and worse until he finally complained to his Mom about it. She could see that he wasn't really all that happy and decided to see what other options there might be for him. When she found there was a program that he could do from home, she pulled him out of the public school and set to teaching him from the home. She made sure to find social activities that he could get involved with, like community service projects and the local 4-H club. Getting a more personal hands on education helped Gid in more ways than his Mom thought. Not only did he learn to be his own person and how to be more inquisitive about things, but he was able to be himself and not care what people thought about him.

    Once Gid hit 13, he felt ready to return to public school and asked his Aunt of he could go. She was a bit surprised but pleased as she had started a new relationship and wanted some more free time to let it develop. It was in this year that Gid got into reggae music and decided to grow his hair out long into dreadlocks. His aunt was a bit taken aback by it but didn't object since he wasn't doing it in a rebellious act so she allowed it. While he acclimated to pierced and then gauged ears during his freshman year he never did get into dressing like anyone else and despite peer pressure never did any drugs or other risky things. He took up skateboarding for all of a week and then quit after he broke his wrist.

    School was a constant struggle for him and he had to study for hours every night to be able to pull off his B-C average. He thought about dropping out several times but knew better than to even suggest it to his Mother. She was insistent that he finished High school and then he could decide where to go from there. While she hoped he'd go to college she never pressured him about it, leaving the decision up to him. She knew that he wouldn't be happy indoors away from what he loved.

    His last two years in High school were a whirlwind of activity. His mother had found someone she loved and was preparing to get married, as well as move into a different home. Gideon kind of felt left out, because he felt like an interloper into the marriage. He was going to gain younger step siblings and wasn't sure how to deal with it. He was happy that his mother had found someone but also felt like he should find his own place once he was done with Highschool.

    Gideon was a bit surprised when his soon to be Step father took him aside and told him that he had an apartment above the garage for him and that he was welcome to it. He rather liked the idea of living close to his mother, but having his own space apart from the rest of the family. After coming to terms with and negotiating a rent price as well as work he could do around the yard for the space Gideon happily moved in.

    Gideon is happy with his new family and enjoys walking his step siblings to their school every morning and picking them up after work. He was able to land a job with a landscaping company and is working his way up on the crew. He hopes to one day build his own company and work for himself. He's been working with the same company for over two years now, he started doing it part time when he was 16.

    Training: When he had troubles with kids in middle school his mother enrolled him in a Karate class. Over the years Gideon has continued in studying karate, even though he's never had to use it. He's now close to getting his black belt in it and is quite good at it.

    Being Called: Gideon's calling came to him one night when he was sleeping under the stars in his back yard. Suddenly a new awareness of the earth invaded his senses and he could feel how the grass, rocks, and earth felt with him laying on top of them. It was an eerie sense and he knew instantly that his life was somehow different.


Λ ۰ Ⱦ ι м ə ۰ ғ ѳ я ۰ β ɐ т т ʟ ə ۰ ۰ ۰
  • ғαтєғυʟ яєsρσиsιвιʟιтч: Gideon's element is Earth, which he didn't find all surprising with his affinity and love of Gaia. It fits his personality rather well, he's durable, warm and inviting and willing to spread knowledge to those who are willing to learn. And when messed with, like Earth he is unflinching in exacting revenge.
    He is now able to control and sometimes communicate with Earth and the plants that spring forth. There is also the odd and tricky gift of being able to blend in with nature around him, a camouflage type of affect.

  • тнє ɢєαяs тнαт ғιт: Gid has a staff that he made himself out of an old piece of redwood that he got in California when on vacation. While he has had no formal training in how to use it, he's got some natural talent with it. He also has a flute which he plays to some of his plants. Since his receiving his gifts he's noticed that the music helps him concentrate his focus on the plants and in helping them grow faster.
  • αи σρρσятυиє мσмєит: Gideon's has great stamina and strength from the work he does outside. he can probably out lift most other guys his age and size. he's got perfect balance, and usually can't be moved because of how dense and compact he is.
  • яαιsє αʟαяυм: His control over the camouflage ability isn't very strong so he's constantly losing hold on it which really annoys him. He is deathly allergic to metal, especially when touching it. Which is one of the reasons that he won't ride in most vehicles and avoids it at all costs.

Gideon Astor Falke

Gideon ignored the grin on the other's face, and shrugged. "More than a lot of people would do normally." He argued, feeling a bit annoyed that Rian hadn't accepted the compliment. Sure..so Rian hadn't done much but blow off steam and attempt something he couldn't do, still he had tried. And he had stayed with Gideon, despite the fact he could have left at any moment and left Gideon to his own devices. "Oh I'm good."

Now that Gideon's was free of his icy prison he was able to more so appreciate the snow laden kingdom before him. While he had experienced snow once when he was a child, it wasn't nearly the same. This snow glistened and sparkled with iridescence, a far cry from the gross muddy snow he had encountered at a young age. He marveled at the unbroken, unmarred snow that stretched out on either side of him, making him feel as though he were far from any sort of civilization. And then there were the soft indentions from birds' feet, some other sort of small creatures' paws, and hoove prints.

Somewhere nearby were deer, or some sort of hooved creature. He wondered why they hadn't seen any during their trek through the snow and then chuckled to himself a bit. Of course, they were breathing and walking so loudly through the snow drifts that they were probably scaring them all off. He was a bit sad that he was disrupting the creatures but it really couldn't be helped if they wanted to make good time and get to the far off light source.

Gideon followed Rian silently, saving his breath for breathing, knowing if he tried to strike up conversation it would only distract him more than he needed. He couldn't help but wonder if Rian was glad of the silence or if he missed the talking. He'd have to ask him later.

Breathe in, breathe out. Right foot, left foot. Over and over it continued, until Gideon got tired of the rhythm and switched. Left foot, Right foot, Left foot, drag the right, left foot, right foot. His feet were becoming numb. That's what he got for wearing sandals in such cold weather. He shivered and hunched over to try and warm his core temperature. It didn't really help all that much. He really should have thought ahead after the dream Janus had sent him.

He was relieved when the House finally came into view. He covered his half frozen nose and let loose a long hot breathe to warm it up. Some of the escaping warm air caused his glasses to fog up and make the features of the large ornate House to blur in front of him. He really didn't give much care what the House might look like on the outside, all he cared was about the Heat that was on the inside.


"Yes please, Heat would be lovely right about now." Gid said with a shudder. He made his way up the steps and reached out to grab the door handle. That was when he noticed that the door had been left open slightly. He frowned and pushed it open.
"Such a waste of glorious heat," He muttered with a frown as he stepped up to the door. He pulled back when the door was thrown open and a small blonde kid stood in front of him with a giant grin on his face.

Gideon was rather stunned as he realized the kid was Trismegitus. What the heck? Janus was going to have a mere child teach them? Gideon couldn't help but feel a bit weirded out about that, but tried not to show it on his face as he looked the kid over. "Uh, right. Thank you for sharing your wonderful home." Gideon replied with a slight bow. He had no idea why he did it, he just felt as though it would show the young kid respect..even though he had doubts about him.

The moment he entered the warm House, Gideon sighed with pleasure and basked in the luxurious feeling that swept over him. "Ahh, wonderful heat!" He moaned in pleasure opening his arms and letting his head fall back slightly in ecstasy. Then with an abrupt snap his head was up, his back straight and he had his arms pulled across his chest with a reddening face as he glanced over the six other people standing around in the room. Crap. How could he have forgotten that he wasn't alone? He turned himself slightly around and glanced at the blonde haired youth with a chagrined expression.

"You wouldn't happen to have any coffee would you? I could use some." Gideon found himself inquiring, he had no idea if anyone else had asked for anything but he imagined they probably had by now.

While he waited for an answer, Gideon glanced around at the other gathered teens and young adults in the room.

Suhe could feel the anxiousness coming off the lady as he examined her and even more so when he said it would be messy. He glanced up at her, his eyes settling on her own and reached up to touch her lightly on the hand that was laying across her lap. "No need to be alarmed, what I meant is that applying the herbs would be kind of messy. I'm going to soak them in sea water before I put them on, so they'll get a bit soggy and possibly fall apart some. It may hurt a little as I wrap the ankle; but I shall try my best to do so as gently as I can."

Suhe's eyes glanced over to the male, sensing that the other felt very protective of the woman. He could practically smell the testosterone ebbing off of him his possessiveness was so potent. Suhe wrinkled his nose and sneezed, he never could figure out why male musk bothered him so much.

Suhe got to his feet to go soak some of the herbs in the ocean water when the male finally spoke. The voice was strong, personable and had a strange tone to it that he had never heard before. Suhe cocked his head to the side and tried to place it for a moment. Then he shrugged and gave up.
"Kibou..Lili," He said pausing for a moment, his mind wandering for a moment. "I don't think I've heard those names before. Well I'm glad I was able to come along and meet you and be of help. Sure, just let me go get these soaked and we can get that ankle wrapped up." Suhe replied and moved towards the ocean.

Avoiding the area where the strange elf had disappeared into the water, Suhe was a bit alarmed that the other two hadn't noticed him. It was as though they had been too enraptured in each other's presence to even notice. Was it possible that the elf had been wearing some sort of shield so prying eyes couldn't see? Or had just shown himself to Suhe for a reason? Suhe shuddered at the thought. What exactly was going on with that elf? He would definitely have to find out. It was possible that someone in Tiania would be able to answer his questions.

After allowing the herbs to soak in the water for a few moments, he gathered them up in his hands and made his way back to the waiting couple. Then he knelt once more at the female's side and gently applied the wet herbs to the skin of her ankle. "Kibou, would you hand me some of those larger leaves? I'll need them to wrap around and keep these herbs in place." He asked nodding his head to the pile of leaves he had left to the side of Lili.

Are you not going to pray? I could help as well if you ask. The voice of Kerati persisted.

Suhe sighed slightly and offered up a muttered prayer under his breath to his goddess. Would she actually be able to help in healing? he stopped himself from thinking any more negatively and apologized to the goddess. He knew next to nothing about her and while it wasn't entirely his fault he wondered why she had waited so long to show herself to him.

I shall explain it in due time, Suhe. Be patient, my dear kitt. the soft voice murmured back to him.


Suhe could swear that he had the sudden sensation of someone petting him from the head all the way down to his back. He shuddered from the sensation and nearly dropped the herbs because of it. "Sorry," He apologized to Lili and Kibou. "My goddess just decided to caress me."

Lilion nodded, deciding that if Kibou was willing to trust the stranger, then so would she. Either way, what harm
could he possibly do with plants? The mermaid repeated Kibou's kind words. "Nice to meet you, thank you for coming
to help." The thought that the creature would be using the ocean water calmed her, making her feel like the piece
of home would help her even more. Subconsciously she had begun running her fingers over her necklace, as she always
did when she thought of her watery home.



When the creature returned and began to work on her ankle, Lili tightened her grip on Kibou's hand, more from
anxiety than anything else. She knew he wouldn't allow anything to happen to her, and she admired his strength
and determination. It seemed where she was shy and a bit fearful of the new world around her, he was tough and
sure of himself. She couldn't help thinking they had been destined to meet somehow, and the mermaid was happier

than she'd been since she'd left home.


Suhe's voice brought her attention back to what he was doing, Lili hadn't even noticed he had stopped with
the procedure. "Your goddess talks to you?" Her voice was soft and inquiring, one eyebrow raised in emphasis.
She remembered hearing stories from her father of Cerith, the goddess overlooking her home, speaking to her people.
After visiting other towns she had realized each had a different deity, and Lilion was curious as to which Suhe
worshiped.

On the Road

Kibou watched as the creature began to work on Lili’s ankle. Applying all types of different plants and when he
went to go soak them in seawater Kibou began to wonder even more where this creature was from. He had heard a
lot about all of the cities and towns in Taiysia but he had never heard of any with all fur covered creatures.
The only place he could think he was from was the city of neko’s, Kimura, but even so this creature looked nothing
like the neko boy he had saw in Tiania. Whatever he was he knew what he was doing and had been of great help to both
him and Lili. Kibou felt Lili tightenen her grip on his hand when he had tried to let go so he could help Suhe but
he decided against it after he had looked into the beautiful maidens eyes. They were beautiful and showed signs of
intense pain. Kibou had hoped after Suhe was done with his treatment that Lili would be okay and her ankle would
start to heal.

Kibou concentrated on giving Lili his full attention as she beared through the pain but he couldn’t help notice that
Suhe began to close his eyes and send a prayer up to his goddess. Kibou wondered if he had prayed to his goddess
and god that his mother would still be here on this earth. Before his facial expression could change to one of
sadness he quickly pushed it back and went back to concentrating on Lili. Kibou handed Suhe the leaves when he had
asked for them and in that moment he had almost dropped them. Suhe then apologized for almost causing an accident
and said that his goddess had spoken to him. Before Kibou could ask him Lili beat him to it. After she was done
talking Kibou began to wonder himself “I’ve never heard many stories of gods and goddess’ being in contact with
their subjects. I guess it is true though” he said in a confused tone. His deity’s have never been in contact with
him. He had stopped praying to them long ago when he was a child and he had felt bad for not continuing to worship
them. As he waited for Suhe to respond to his statement and Lili’s question he opened decided to ask the creature
another question “So, me and Lili are heading to a city called Tiania, it’s full of many different races and
filled with knowledge. I figure there is safety in numbers so would you like to tag along with us? We owe you one
since you’re helping Lili with her ankle” he said to the creature and then looked at Lili to make sure it was okay
for him to ask such a thing. Kibou was one known not to think before he said anything but he figured this would be

a good way for Lili to learn about other races since that was the reason she left her home town. He quietly awaited the creature’s response hoping he would say yes and Lili wouldn’t be uncomfortable if he did.
