SkyPuffs

SkyPuffs are a creation of the Primes, also affectionately dubbed Lightbringers. They use their cosmic powers to keep track of things on Earth and protect furres against surprise Dark Prime antics. Their magical core often contains aspects of the sky, stars, or aether, and they are often winged.

Originally, the Dark Prime Tallus lived as shattered pieces in the sky, known to the Waking World as stars. According to the Prophecy of the Stars, once the stars aligned, he would coalesce from his star-piece self and fall back into Yezaad, the Dreaming World, from the sky. When he did, the Dark Primes would regain their thirteenth member and become extremely powerful. Many sinister plots have hinged upon the day Tallus rejoined their ranks.

Prime Licharra, watching the change in the sky, came to her brother Prime Jemmion and explained that she had believed Dark Prime Tallus had reformed. They both came to their powerful brother, Prime Viverravus, who had defended them from Dark Prime Tallus last time.

The Light Primes then used the Second Moon (which was used to see through illusions in the Book of Wyrmmes) to create the first of the SkyPuffs, the PacaPuff. These new creations would be Lightbringers to watch over from the skies, protecting both furres and the Light Primes from any surprise tactics of the newly empowered Dark Primes.

Here is the official RP log when the PacaPuffs, the first SkyPuff, were created:

Official RP

Licharra. With a burst of wind, powerful enough to rock the crowd back a bit, a scale-armored creature descends from even above the cloudy expanse of Zephiroth. A normally cheerful Prime, it seems today the world is putting weight on her normally weightless, batlike form. She has a somber mien, eyes overcast and her wing fingers tapping together. Looking at the crowd, she makes eye contact with a few of the furres in acknowledgement.

Licharra addresses the crowd directly, gesturing to the heavens around them. "Greetings, mortals. Have you, too, witnessed the darkened night skies?" She waits for their response before moving on.

Meggy tapped her chin for a moment. "Y'know, now that you've mentioned it.. It has seemed darker lately." Yosa Yume perks up her ears attentively, a wide smile across her muzzle at the bat prime, eyes sparkling in adoration. Lady of the Wood appears in a puff of smoke, looking over her skin turn neon pink she shook her head and quietly said "tsk tsk tks, I knew I used too many frog leg, oh well" shrugging off the side effects of her teleport potion, she found a nice spot on the floor to rest her old body. "Seems everyone is as colorful, must be something going around." Felce is still gaping at Licharra's apparition from behind Yosa, where they meekly hid themselves.

Licharra: It is for this concern I have arrived here. I too have been watching the skies, and there has been a shift. Do you know the Prophecy of the Stars?

Licharra's voice deepens as she recites it.

• Shattered by Complexity,
• Scattered across obscurity
• The Prime of Thieves waits
• And on him his Dark Siblings
• Pause and ruminate
• But when the stars align
• And dimmer is the night
• Tallus shall coalesce and reform
• to become even greater than before
• And fall back to Yezaad from the sky

Meggy: The Prime of Thieves.. That's Tallus, yeah?

Licharra nods.

Toki plucks one of his orbiting stars from the air, holds it up, attempting to hold it over the crowd. "Does this have anything to do with the prophecy of the stars?" Felce looks around, a bit bewildered that nobody else is a bit freaked out about a Prime sweeping down to recite a dark and foreboding Prophecy. Chiss lets out a cry, "Not Tallus!" and faints. Emerald Flame sits quietly in hopes of not being noticed. Felce would scram back to safety... were they not just SO curious about all of this! Cinni is not quite sure what is going on, but stays at a distance.

Licharra sighs, "As my sky domain has indeed darkened, I suspect my Dark brother Tallus, long thought to be gone forever, has reformed.. With his aid, the Dark Primes will be stronger than ever, with many more plots and schemes up their sleeves. We have to do something!"

Toki looks up at the sky, tries to release his stars up to the sky, only for them to hover back towards him like a magnet, one comedically sticking over his eye like a sticker. Felce: Are we all in trouble then? Meggy: What can we even do? Chiss jumps back up."If only there was some. Magical being that could put Tallus back in place" Meggy is not magical in the slightest.

Licharra grins at all the furres offering their assistance. "Help me call my brother Prime Jemmion, the Sky Prince, to make a plan." She begins to raise her arms toward the moon. "Lord of the Moon, we need your aid!"

Kufky inhales, 'JEMMION!' Chiss takes out their fairy box to call Jemmion. Cinni gasps, "Prime Jemmion!" Toki finds it pretty amusing that the space-dog is trying to call for the 'lord of the moon', but lifts his hands up dramatically. "Here moony moony moony moony." Meggy cups her hands over her mouth and yells into the open air. "HEY MOON MAN. C'mere a sec!" Felce squints at the night sky - "Hey, Lord Jemmion! Please! We need a hand!" Kono howls.. (that counts, right?)

Jemmion, a seemingly surfer inspired tiger, smiles as he steps out from a moonbeam. "Of course my dudes, I'm here to answer any call for help! About Tallus, you say? Yeah, how about we use the Second Moon to protect these chill furres from, like, devastation!"

Emerald Flame grins at Jemmion, then puffs the Prime feathers from her nose. Toki really likes Moon-mans energy, finger-guns at him. Meggy gasps! "S-Second Moon?" Felce concludes Lord Jemmion is, in fact, a pretty cool dude. They feel already safer in the presence of such a himbo!

Licharra nods to Jemmion, "Yes, the Second Moon worked in the past against the Dark Primes. I bet it could help in preventing them from enacting more secret schemes!"

Jemmion waves his paws in an undulating motion, summoning the orb from the ether. The Second Moon appears in a burst of red light, glinting from obscurity.

Toki's eyes brighten up, and he stares at the shiny, glittery coloured moon. Once again he tries to flick a star at it, only for the star to boomerang back at him and knot into his fur.

But then...! Tallus interrupts the gathering, appearing in a burst of starlight. His body is illuminated internally by the glow, cracks along his form where it seemed to have pieced itself back together. "Thought you could use the Second Moon against me?" He laughs darkly.

Tallus then looks among the crowd, notices how some of the furres hide their cookies. "I can sense your fears of the future, mortals, and it brings me the greatest pleasure. I've been watching you for eons, and now I can finally make myself known.." He holds out a small bag and shakes it ominously.

Felce whines, and goes running behind the nearest and tallest furre! They then throw a cookie at Tallus, hoping to placate him, or at least annoy him away from them...? Kufky looks very concerned that Tallus has appeared, effectively a meter away from her and tries to edge away. Remembering her cookie promise however, she retrieves a cookie and gingerly places it between her and the prime. Somni glares at the mysterious bag, and then starts scampering towards it.

Tallus grunts and the stars in his body glow brighter. His third eye widens, as if seeing into the future. "Anyway, nice try... cookie bribes too. I see your plans - you can't fool me!" As he casts the runes from the bag, the light of the Second Moon dims. "This orb won't be enough to thwart the power of the reunited Dark Primes!"

Toki rustles a star out of his fur, tries to chuck it attim with all his effort. Felce: Jemmion, dude!! Some radical help is kinda needed here!

But all was not lost, as Viverravus arrives. Immense energy crackles in the center of the gathering, and then unleashes in a tidal wave of power. A tornado howls above, rain suddenly lashing the audience in a brief storm. The water then freezes into small hail chunks, before a heatwave sizzles them out of existence - right before they would have hit any furre. That's when the powerful weasel steps out, seeming unaffected by his complex relationship with weather.

Viverravus smiles confusingly to the crowd, then frowns toward the dark squirrel. "Not so fast, brother Tallus. While you may be right about that, The Second Moon is not the only tool we have..." He gestures to the Dragon's Breath Orbs gathered around the vicinity. "We can create something more unique using our and its power combined."

Tallus pffts eloquently.

Licharra perks up when Viverravus arrives, for he was indeed one of the most powerful Primes. "Yes, we can create Lightbringers, protectors of Kasuria, to watch for any Dark Prime scheming. To maintain balance and order."

Jemmion grins, "You got it, SkyPuffs! We need to pack some serious power into these little guys to keep the peace. How about June's rainbow magic?"

Tallus grumbles and folds his arms. He seems to avoid eye contact with Prime Viverravus as he appears, even taking a step back. Then he glances towards the crowd, a threat in his tone as he says, "I will never stop watching. Just wait, with my return and the reunification of the Dark Primes, we will be a truly fearsome force. I'll be back." With that he buries his head into his scarf and fades into obscurity.

Toki throws his hands up and cheers when Tallus disappears, but gets smacked by the star he threw to have two stars covering each eye, now. Starry-eyed! Felce comes out of hiding, breathing a sigh of relief! Who knows, maybe the cookie attack scared him off a little.

Viverravus laughs darkly as the squirrel Prime vanishes. "Turning tail, as he should, given what I can do to him.." He rubs his clawed hands together, eyes closing. "SkyPuffs, you shall carry with you the celestial magic of the weather and sky! And aided by the power of the Second Moon, it shall grant you the ability to see past illusions." His body crackles with electricity and it begins to shoot out of his palms and sizzle onto the Second Moon orb.

Licharra stretches her leathery wings wide as she raises her wing-arms, slowly weaving her fingers in a rhythmic fashion. She begins whispering quiet, airy words of power, visibly willing a luminescent glow from the Dragon's Breath Orbs. "Come forth my beautiful children, bring to us your eyes, to watch over and protect the furres. Use your wings to live among the sky!" Her wind power begins to focus on the Second Moon orb.

Jemmion: Before the sparkling stars and the ever-watching moon, I feel the Magics of the Second Dreaming swirling yet again. This is going to be a totally awesome creation, I can feel it!

Jemmion glances affectionately at every Dragon's Breath Orb, smiling with delight. "I grant each of you the righteous colors of the rainbow that my favorite tropical parrots proudly bear. And the wisdom of the moon, to inform us of any Dark Prime schemes."

Jemmion raises his striped arms as a cascade of colors, vivid and brilliant, sweeps throughout the land, saturating the sky in a false sunset, dancing across the heavens. It coalesces onto the Second Moon orb.

Emerald Flame: Let's help the Primes! Emerald Flame: PacaPuffs! PacaPuffs! PacaPuffs! James chants with Emmie, "Pacapufffffs!" Kufky: PacaPuffs! Felce gasps! Unsure what this is about but carried in the moment, starts chanting with the others - "Pacapuffs! Pacapuffs!" Chiss chants, "Gimme a 'P' a-c-a. PacaPuffs!" Toki: Paca poof. Cinni: paca puuufffff

Licharra smiles happily at the PacaPuffs. "How wonderful and magical you are! Be free in the sky!" She launches herself upward with her mighty leathery wings, and waves to those below, "Until next time mortals! It's now time for me to fly."

Jemmion grins happily, "Bear witness to these rainbowed beauties right before your eyes! Aren't they dazzling? Keep watch for us, colorful SkyPuffs!" He winks jovially at all the furres, then a flash of moonlight envelops him, and he disappears.

Viverravus cracks a small smile as the PacaPuffs emerge. "These powerful SkyPuffs shall be of great aid to Kasuria. A most welcome creation. Farewell, mortals." Wind whips around him into a cyclone, that then fades into the abyss as he disappears.
