EMP-471: Seawaddle

Seawaddle is one of the smallest hunters in the guild, but honestly one of the fastest and mightiest hunters. She can take down a tall, full grown grifix pretty quickly. She has fun wrestling with other hunters and adores children, having a sweet personality and caring soul.

Seawaddle grew up in the Hunters Guild, being very small and running around the building with other kits and cubs that grew up with her. Her parents were sometimes nervous about her playing with the other children because she would sometimes play too rough and end up making someone cry, but when her parents would try to pull her away from the crying children she would smack them with her tail and go over to comfort the crying child, apologizing for her actions.

As she grew older she would start wrestling matches with some of the males and and they would all crowd around the wrestling match, seeing her win almost every match. She sometimes would brag about being the winner just like some of the others would, then they would all go back inside and eat together.

When she was mature enough to become a full hunter, she mostly was in the groups that went towards the frozen ponds to catch fish. She is very skilled as diving into the water to catch the big fish that tend to hide in the rocks and moss farther down into the ponds, she also would be the one they would always ask to crack the ice by slamming her tail onto the ice.

She will join in on the drinking with her fellow hunters, but she’s not one to go all out unless something devastating happens.. like a tragic accident. She has a friend she always hangs out with, looking up to him since he was much taller than her and a little older, and being in love with him but hasn’t said anything yet.

They were out hunting one time and suddenly she lost sight of him in the snowstorm, calling his name out and starting to cry underneath her mask until she heard a scream from over near the mountains, running as fast as she could as she saw a trail of blood going towards a cave that was behind a ledge not too far from the guild building. She was petrified, knowing how much she cared about him she couldn’t afford losing him without telling him how much she loved him. She finally found him laying inside the cave as blood ran from his side, a ice bolder on top of his big tail. “_____!” She cried out as she threw her mask off and ran in front of him and smacked the ice bolder with her tail hard and winced as it wouldn’t break. “Waddles.. don’t bother trying.. it’s too heavy for you..” he muttered as the side of his face was covered in blood and blood still was running down rear end. “I..I need to get it off!!” Seawaddle cried as she continued to try to get it off herself before ____ placed his paw on her tail, it making her stop and her ears folding back.

“You have to cut it off..” “No! You love your big tail! I-I can’t!” She cried as she sat there and looked down as tears ran down her face before he reached up and placed his paw on her face, giving her a little kiss on the nose. “Seawaddle.. it has to be done.. m-maybe it will grow back..?” He said as she was just shocked from the kiss before shaking her head. “I’m cutting skin and bone.. I don’t think it will grow back..” she muttered before sighing and the two sat there for a moment, Seawaddle going and grabbing her small blade she had and holding it with her gem magic. “Are you sure?” She said as she stood up and walked over to the bolder, seeing him nod. “Even if you would use magic to lift the bolder, the bones are shattered.. it has to be amputated until we see if it will grow back.. if it ever will.”

Seawaddle teared up before going and slicing his tail off and quickly taking the bandages off her uniform and wrapping the stub of a tail he has now, the male holding her close before they went back to the guild and ____ got his stub tail looked at, seeing it he had enough skin to have his tail grow back.. which lucky enough there was, but his tail wouldn’t be as fluffy and big as it was.

Seawaddle still thinks it’s her fault that it happened to him, but he always holds her close at night with his new tail and tells her it isn’t her fault. The two are mates now and are still debating whether or not to have any kids yet.
