A 'Thorny' Situation
Posted: Mon Jun 01, 2015 11:32 am
Having discovered Felarya first regarding monster girls, many of my monster girls were generally meant to reside in Felarya. Though they have very different personalities and behaviors then the monsters they are amongst though. Let's start off with the dryads.
Barb and Thorn are both Dryads I had planned originally to take up residence within the Dridder forest of Felarya. However, their vast differences compared to their Felaryan "cousins", allow them to reside or appear in universes other than Felarya. However, a couple of the "resources" they use to capture their victims happen to grow exclusively in Felarya alone. And this 'unique capture technique' is reliant on those particular items.
Thorn originally came up with the technique, but when her rival Barb started using it too, Thorn became miffed. She accuses Barb of 'stealing' her technique. To this date they will squabble over the fact. But for the most part they tend not to associate with each other if they can help it.
Unlike their Felaryan "cousins", they are more spirit than tree and are notable bound to their own respective trees. They are a distinct rarity in this setting and don't fit in well. They don't even share a spiritual link with their cousins or have a spot within their network. Though as it turns out, the Felarya dryads often want nothing to do with them.
Barb and Thorn; especially Barb; have a promiscuous nature that relies very little on vore if at all. But what makes them detestable to the other dryads is their mischievous and dark attitudes aside from their lewd behaviors.
Dryads are often depicted as benevolent, sweet, and wise. However, Barb and Thorn's actions contradict that greatly and seem to "sully" the reputation of the dryad race. Because of this they are thoroughly disliked and outcasted.
Barb and Thorn both are bound for the most part by the traditional lore of dryads, aside from their own unique differences that sets them apart from the others.
Barb and Thorn share many similarities, but they still have their differences.
Name: Barb
species: dryad
Age: Unknown
Location: (When in Felarya) At the opposite end of the Dridder forest from Thorn. Resides somewhat near the outer edges of it close to the Ixtapal Marshes and Myriad river.
Bio: (continued) Though alike Thorn in many ways, she has a somewhat more chaotic evil alignment. Fending for herself often, being an outcast, she has to make her own fun in a setting that otherwise openly shuns her. Whenever she can get the chance to get a hold of someone she doesn't hesitate to do so.
She even has her own little spot she uses to capture people. It's a good distance from her tree, but not too far as she remains bound by the traditional lore of the dryads where they can only go so far from their tree.
The spot she uses as a trap, consists of a small thicket amongst a gathering of trees, all sporting numerous vines. There's an alignment of shrubs and bushes off to the one side and beyond them a few feet away, the opening of a small cave can be seen. At times, she will see a dridder emerge from the cave and pass through.
At one point she had taken upon herself to talk to one and managed to convince it to help lure victims in her direction or at least to that spot in generally. She also questioned a rogue Naga named Nathaira at one point, whom is at constant odds with the environment she's in, as Dridders are known to openly detest nagas. All the same, sometimes Nathaira rises to the task of luring victims to Barb.
But why that small thicket in general for a trap? Well, because it consists of at least 2 essential items she uses for her technique when capturing prey. One is a glowing lotus bloom with the likings of a sneeze pod, only it spouts a sleeping gas like pollen. The other is a closed pod, sitting beside it.
When the pod opens up fully it reveals a small hole in the center of it, out which spurts a special sap that can alter the sensitivity of whomever's skin it touches, usually the victims'.
These 2 plants' actions combined take on the likings of a Gloom lotus. A plant that grows exclusively in dark areas, especially caves, emitting a faint purple glow. Though they themselves aren't a gloom lotus, they've been specifically altered by Barb to fit her needs. She will often double check on them, to be sure these "prized flowers" of hers haven't undergone damage of some sort.
Although if it ever came to having to do so, the flowers can be moved in their own special way and be brought to her tree for safe keeping in the event she should suddenly be somewhere other than Felarya in the same storyline. Generally this doesn't happen though.
The thicket that houses these "special" flowers is also accompanied by Gripper vines, which are the vines seen winding the trees nearest them and are another Felarya based flora. These vines can also emerge from underground in this spot aside from striking from the trees and catch the victim by surprise and hold them in place.
She often refers to this area as her "Special Booby Trap."
Typically the capture technique works as follows.
It is so far unclear just how such a unique species of dryad came to reside in the Felaryan environment. But it is known however that they are misfits there.
Name: Thorn
species: Dryad
Age: unknown
location: (When in Felarya) Opposite end of the Dridder forest than Barb, likely somewhere between the wizard mansion and the ruins of old supprozad.
