A Thirst For Adventure

[ShrewsForever]

STORY AND SETTING:
Far from Mossflower, in a land (that I totally didn't just make up) called Dawnriver, a group of adventurers have decided to wander in search of thrills and treasures. Each of them come from different places for varying reasons, but they all stick together. The group was formed by Snap Springpaw, a mink with a thirst for adventure.

ABOUT:
Dawnriver is an interesting land, filled with ruins and riches from one end of it to another. There are more species than most other areas. One may even find turtles and opossums. There are many hostile beasts (greedy bandits, aggressive tribes, vermin hordes, old enemies, etc.) , and the terrain is dangerous (cliffs, deep rivers and lakes with deadly fish, complex caves and ruins, etc.) in many areas. The group will attempt to explore the land and maybe come across a ruin, cave, etc. We start in a camp a short way from where the adventurers set off.

To the west of the adventurers is a beautiful waterfall, and they have heard rumors of ancient ruins not too far from it. To the east is a small town, which is where they came from. To the north are steep mountains and many caves. To the south is a beautiful and mysterious forest.

RULES:
1. You may have however many characters you want. I don't suggest having more than three.
2. If you want to kill a person's character(s), ask first.
3. I may or may not add magic in this RP. For now, please don't use it.

The Skarzs characters:

Spoiler

 Name: Onagen (Oh-nah-gen), but also goes by Ona
 Age: 20
 Gender: Male
 Species: Cougar (Mountain lion.)
 Weapons: Besides the triangular piece of armor he wears on his left arm (which is more or less a wide vambrace), Onagen also uses a battle axe.
Spoiler for Axe:

 Appearance: Onagen is a well-built cougar, with broad shoulders and decently-defined muscles. His fur is the regular tan/grayish hue of his species, with darker ears and white muzzle. Though his is pretty young, he has seen battle enough, and the number of scars noticeable on his arms and face give testimony to that. His eyes are sharp blue, the kind of eyes that gaze without faltering, rimmed by serious eyebrows and prominent cheek bones. He wears a gray tunic with a hood underneath a half-sleeve chainmail shirt. His axe hangs on the broad leather belt strapped around his waist, and a pack dangles on his back.
 Favorite color: Um. . . gray?
 Personality: Though serious, he has a sense of honor and love of travel.
 History: Left his large family on an indefinite adventure; that was five seasons ago. Now that he has gone through battles on both the wrong and right sides, as well as forced his wit and endurance to the near brink of snapping, he is rather experienced. Has also been following the group for a day or two and has not shown himself.
 Strengths: Battle, observation, and much experience.
 Weaknesses: Frustration under high pressure, his size makes him an easy target, and a tendency toward stubbornness.
 Likes/Dislikes: Likes- Fish and meat; also enjoys good singing. Dislikes- Psychopaths (he has met a few), and heat.

Skyblade's characters:

Spoiler

Name: Skyre the Blue
Age: Late teens, I guess
Gender: Female
Species: Badger
Weapons(s): Double-bladed sword
Appearance: Skyre is unusually small and petite for a badger. This means that instead of being bulky and powerful, she is about the size of another beast such as an otter. Her white fur is tinged a silver-blue and her tail is bushier than normal, resembling a squirrel's. Skyre is sadly not a very pretty beast to look at. It is evident that she has fought all her life. She has a scar across her face, and even has a stump instead of a left arm. Skyre wears a simple, torn vest and shorts and has an eyepatch over her (missing) right eye. Her teeth and claws are sharpened to lethal points.
Personality (the very basics): Skyre is not very popular and others sometimes find her odd and/or awkward. She is self-conscious and sensitive, but insightful and well-meaning.
Favorite color: Sky blue Wink
History (optional): Skyre grew up in an area that was extremely harsh for everyone who lived there. Life was rough, to say the least, and she received strict training that would prove useful later. After she managed to escape, she became a traveler and sets her heart on doing good. It's harder to do than want, though.
Strengths: Skyre was trained well. She is very fast and agile, as well as insightful. Has experience.
Weaknesses: Because of her size, Skyre was not born with the massive power and strength that usually come in her species. She also has Bloodwrath, but it isn't as dangerous as with others of her kind, due to her disadvantage. In fact, it tends to backfire. Also, missing an arm can prove to be a big burden.
Likes/Dislikes: Skyre admires people who feel the same way as her when it comes to certain ideas she holds strong. She dislikes when others are "pointlessly mean".
Other: Yes, she is based off of me Tongue I really can't help myself; it's more fun this way for me. Tried my best to not make her a Mary-sue

Can we have some specifications on the land layout, the creatures there (if there are any species alien to Mossflower), and perhaps an idea on any enemies they might come across?

Sorry, that was quite rude of me. On it.

[The Skarzs]

It's fine.

[ShrewsForever]

Added more info and my character sheet.

[The Skarzs]

Cool.
I hope you don't mind my numerous questions, but. . .
Are there any creatures you don't want played? In addition to that, is any creature as likely to be evil as good? (From the mink your character is, I'm guessing so.)

I don't mind what creature you play as long as it fits the setting. (don't use a parrot or a polar bear)
The species doesn't matter, it's their actions that do. So, to answer your question, yes.
I don't mind the questions, don't worry.
