I nearly didn't share this because of how sloppy/cringey it came out lol EW THE TIMING IS SO GROSS WHAT THE HEK wELL I love this character design sooOo much and I just had to enter for it!! Now to cringe even more here's a really weird bio/backstory: Name: Vapor Gender: ♂ [Male] Age: Somewhere between the age of a kid and a teen Personality: Over protective, Gentle, Prepared, Kinda outgoing? yEE BACKSTORY (Shown in the meme) Vapor lives on a small island, in a small village. He worked with his family as fishermen. He swam an awful lot to catch fish by spear or to dive down to get shellfish along the floor of the reef. His best friends Miu (Green cat with horns) and Echo (Black and white Lemur) worked in the rainforest and market. Miu selling rugs, and Echo picking fruit. They always hung out together during the time of sunset. Talking about funny things, chasing hermit crabs, and eating leftover catches around a campfire. They were a nice, happy, and tightly-bonded trio. It was another beautiful evening when the three got together again on the beach. Vapor was happily bringing along some small fish and an octopus to share. But instead of seeing Miu and Echo sitting around a campfire, he saw them going deep into the beach. Where they kept getting sweeped back into the shallows, but kept trying anyway. As they saw Vapor, they rushed out of the water and asked in a happy tone: "Vapor! Pleeeeeease teach us how to swim!" Vapor thought for a moment. It would be fun to swim together, but they do enough of that in the shallows. Plus, Vapor knew how smart and quick-learning they were. What if they get better then him, out compete him? He was always the best swimmer in whatever case. And didn't want to lose that. "No." Every sunset Miu and Echo would always ask him the same question. but he only replied with a stern "No.". It continued on for days, weeks, and months. It was a couple of months later when a hurricane stuck. Hurricanes were pretty common so the Vapor and the other islanders didn't worry too much when they received the warning. But they were all taken by surprise with the sheer force of it. It was the biggest hurricane anyone had even encountered. So big that it even swept farther inland than the massive mangrove the islanders planted to protect the main village. Vapor and his family were fine. Experiencing this and knowing what to do. But Vapor knew Miu, Echo, or the other villagers didn't. He ran further inland. The waves were already flooding the market below and catching any people (*Cough* animals *cough*) that didn't make it safely to somewhere in time. He spotted Miu heading up onto a high patio where the waves couldn't get to him. He got up with him and saw he was yelling to someone. He looked in Miu's direction. It was Echo. He was scrabbling on a tiny piece of driftwood, bobbing back and fourth as the waves got stronger. But his claws slipped and his head got pushed below the surface. Vapor dived down to get Echo and onto the patio Miu was standing on. But it was too late. The waves pulled Echo father to the beach, then eventually the ocean. Miu and Vapor were devastated by the sudden loss of Echo. And Vapor knew it was his fault they lost him because he didn't teach them how to swim. Miu got so mad at Vapor he even moved out of the island to a huge city on a much larger island. Vapor is now a teacher. Teaching children, adults, and newcomers about the ocean, storms, and swimming. To repay for what happened to Echo. bUT. Vapor and Miu didn't SEE Echo drown, just get pulled away into the ocean, neither did they ever manage to get his body to bury him. So, is Echo really dead?
