Extreme Character Profile

Extreme is the Earth Puppet.
Extreme (I know, a very weird name) is a very hyper active guy that loves to fight, run, train, jump, go to high places, exercise, and all sorts of sports.
Extreme has a very bright personality, always smiling and what not. He's always one to make you smile back as well. He also likes to pull pranks on others to get people smiling and laughing, or just for the fun of it. Extreme likes to listen to his music while training, or walking, or when he's got nothing to do. He doesn't really pay attention to people or where he's going when he listens to it though.
He isn't exactly a smart Puppet as well. Kinda stupid, but fun to be around.

Extreme's animal is a Lion/Monkey. Extreme is actually half of both (Not sure how that actually works). His animal takes the form of a small lion when seen, and Extreme takes on some of the monkey form (Monkey ears and tail). His Lion is named Maximum. Maximum turns into a huge hammer with spikes coming out of the ends.

Extreme has short light brown hair. Emerald green eyes, and a band aid with a green star on it. He wears a white tank top with a single red stripe on both sides, baggy black shorts with the tip white, big chunky white and green shoes, a single black and green suspender let lose hanging, green sweat bands on both arms, and a black and green head phones.
Extreme is a person that thinks of others, and likes a challenge.

The Earth that stands its ground and will always be there to catch you.

Nai Character Profile

Nai is the fire type of Puppet.
She gets angered very easily, ya know, short tempered. Nai resembles a 'Tsundere'. Tsundere is a Japanese character development process which describes a person who is initially cold and even hostile towards another person before gradually showing their warm side over time, but she doesn't show her caring side because she thinks it'll get in the way. Sometimes Nai prefers to work alone.
Another thing about her is that she gets lost very easily. She may seem smart at personal stuff but when it comes to things around her, she's hopeless. For example, Maps.
Her animal is a red fox named Kitsune. They often fight a lot but still care about each other. Kitsune turns into a Katana in battle mode, with a fiery, killing, red aura around her.

Nai wears a red shirt with rolled up sleeves, green camouflage shorts, with fish net leggings under it, black combat boots, a big orange- red scarf, and brownish- reddish gloves with the fingers cut off.
Her hair colour is blood red, that reaches about the middle of her back.
Nai has 2 different colored eyes. The right one red, the other amber orange. Almost like phoenix colours.
One more thing is, just don't get on her bad side. You won't know what she'll do to you... probably kill you though.

The Fire that lights up a path for you to follow.

The Organization

A little bit about the Organization.
They started about the same time that the Puppetmaster began to put good Puppets into the world. They stole some of the Puppetmaster's notes and used his designs to create their own Puppets for their purposes. So a few of the good Puppets actually have an evil "twin" serving the Organization. Even though the evil Puppets are already under their control, they still torture them to make sure the Puppets will still fear them. Many of the Puppets they send out to do tasks are young, since they are flexible, seem innocent and easy to bend to their will. The Organization keeps in touch with the Puppets they send out using some sort of amulet. It works like a walkie-talkie and a tracking device, which allows the Organization to communicate and keep an eye on the Puppet.
Also, they kidnap good Puppets and turn them evil using some wicked devices. They kidnap them usually by sending out people pretending to look for Puppets, or by offering the desperate Puppets a better life. (So that's what's happening to Annik.)

So in the story, there are a few main Organization people and Puppets we meet. There is the mysterious "Head" of the Organization, whom only a few have ever seen. Kara Violet Hikari is one of the other leaders of the Organization. She seems trustworthy, but only when it's too late will she show her true colours.
Piko is one of the many Puppets to be sent out to stop the five main characters from reaching their destination. She's actually only about 8, and her age is what makes her look innocent. A few things happen though that starts to make it harder for her to kill the group.
Another evil Puppet, Renita, is also trying to stop the Puppets, though she's much more ruthless. She's 19 years old, and hardened by all of the torture and agony she's been through. She'll stop for nothing to get what her masters want.

The Organization has an allure of power that helps it gain many more followers, so the Organization keeps on growing and growing in size and force.

Somewhat of a chapter...

This is something I wrote to introduce Annik into the picture. Please tell me what you think!

Annik stepped into the biting cold, pulling the door close behind her. She shivered slightly, trying hard not to cry. It was her 3^rd master this month, and she was running out of places to go.

‘It’s not my fault,’ she thought bitterly. ‘Humans just can’t deal with me having a power while they are helpless without us Puppets.’

She heaved her bag onto her shoulder, trying to avoid squishing Lang underneath her cloak. She searched for the book she had stolen in an act of rebellion. It was so old that the binding was falling apart, and the words almost unreadable. It was one of her former-master’s treasures, and she couldn’t bear the thought of him having such a precious book. Annik found the book with her few worldly possessions, and opened it up to her favourite page. It was an old prophecy, supposedly written by the creator of all Puppets, called the Puppetmaster. She read it out loud to herself, to try to forget her sadness.

“Five Puppets of the elements shall join together, and expel the darkness from the land. Each shall be different, yet the same. Though one shall come from the night, they will produce light from which the time of greatness will rise. Five pieces will bring them together, to form a bond that nothing break.”

Annik sighed, and put the book away. How she wished she could be one of those five legendary Puppets! Then she would never have to worry about being alone or unwanted. She started to trudge towards the nearest inn, knowing that many people who wanted Puppets would hang around there. ‘Please, someone be there!’ she thought to herself, and carefully wrapped the cloak around her and Lang.

She pushed open the door of the inn, and was immediately greeted with some hostile looks. Annik scurried to the nearest wall, expertly avoiding feet trying to trip her or hands shoving her. The lobby that she was in was full of people smoking and drinking, with weary looks on their faces. Many of them were searching the lobby with strange expressions in their eyes, which made Annik retreat into the corner even more. She tried searching for someone who could be a possible master. She finally saw a man that seemed very nice, with a twinkle in his black eyes and messy clothes. ‘He needs someone to take care of his clothes,’ she thought to herself. ‘Which means he’ll probably want a Puppet.’

She got the courage to creep over where the man was and tap him politely on his shoulder. As he spun around to look at her she asked “Are you hiring, sir?”

For a second, his eyes glinted with what seemed like malice, and Annik quickly took a step backwards. His eyes started twinkling again, and he smiled. “Of course I am! Are you looking for a job?”

Annik was about  to roll her eyes at his stupid question, but thought better of it as she remembered that strange glint in his eyes. Lang slithered underneath her cloak and hissed maliciously. Annik knew that her snake didn’t trust this man, but she had to take her chances and ignore Lang. She tried to appear as cheerful as she could and nodded her head.

“Well you look like the right Puppet for me,” he said, grinning. “I’ve got to get going, my friend is picking me up, so follow me!” He bade farewell to his drinking friends and quickly headed out to the door. Annik had to run to try to catch up with his long strides. They got outside to an awaiting carriage, and the man went up to the driver.

“Well, I’ve got another one! I see a raise in my future,” said the man, looking boastful. His friend shook his head. Annik could barely see the driver’s face, but she could see the grimace that he tried to surpress. “Don’t count on it, Drake. But let’s get going, or the master will be very upset at us,” the driver said, then quickly opened the carriage door and tossed Annik in. She hit her head hard on the other side, which knocked her unconscious. She woke a few hours later, and looked around her in bewilderment, then remembered that she was in a carriage driven by people who had kidnapped her.    

She cursed, and Lang gave came out of her hiding spot. Lang tilted her head and stared into Annik’s eyes. Annik knew she was in for a lecture from her snake. She closed her eyes and waited for Lang to start.

<I told you so!> hissed a voice in her mind. <And yet you didn’t believe me until it was too late!>

“But you know how important is was to get employment…”

<You know that isn’t an excuse! And now we have no idea where these men are taking us.> Lang slithered over to the window and peered outside. Annik felt the shame rise up into her face. Her snake was right. She acted foolishly and hasty, and now she had no idea what would happen to them.

Lang seemed to sense her sadness and nuzzled Annik’s hand.

<Don’t worry too much> she said. <We’ll find our way out of whatever trouble comes our way.>

And together, snake and Puppet, waited for the carriage to arrive at their destination.

Annik Character Profile

Each of us created at least one character for the story. They tend to reflect on who we are in real life, but sometimes we like to create characters totally opposite from us. Let me tell you a little about my character.
My character's name is Annik, and she's one of the main characters. She's an elemental Puppet, with power over water. She has glasses, ocean-blue eyes, bluish-blackish chin-length hair, and a snake named Lang. Lang turns into whip when needed. She normally wears shorts, a t-shirt and a short poncho. She loves reading and writing and the others rely on her for knowledge from books. Annik is usually calm, but when she loses her temper, she gets very angry.
I hope the others put up their characters' profiles soon.

More Details

So let me explain some details about the story.

Puppets are all created by the Puppetmaster. Some Puppets have power over elements (fire, air, earth, water, darkness) and all have animals that represent them and are their constant companions. The animals can turn into weapons or devices that the Puppets use when needed.

Some people also have power over the elements, as well as some various other arts (necromancy for example). The people tend to discriminate against Puppets, as they think of them as "lower" then humans, and so Puppets can only find work as servants or slaves.

The main bad guys are "The Organization," a group that created fake Puppets for their services, and to, of course, help take over the world. They use the elements, but they turn them for dark purposes, so tainting the magic.

The other bad guys are the solo dark people (people who have power over necromancy or the elements). They have their own schedule for world-domination or revenge, but many of them are starting to join "The Organization."

Our five main characters are all Puppets, and they all have secrets they hold. I'll let the others explain their characters.

I hope I cleared up a little bit of your confusion. We'll try to keep you updated with what we're working on.

Intro

Hey there, my friends and I had started this awesome story about a fantasy world where Puppets are alive and used as servants, and where evil lurks. I am trying to start posting about various chapters we're working on, and they may not go in direct order from beginning to end. Please give us feedback, because it would help us a lot!
Hope you enjoy Puppetmaster!
