| A break from guard duty. It was a strange way to phrase it, as guarding the Queen was meant to be an honor. Morial didn't blame Ontari for wanting a break from her mother figure of sorts made sense. She was a harsh woman and difficult to be around even for Morial. If she was out of line, Queen Nia wouldn't let it slip. Despite her loyalty, Morial was not perfect. Her children made her a flawed warrior, as the Queen was not her only priority. The father of her children would often say that she could have other children... it was a wonder they weren't still together. "I will be guarding the queen," she replied softly as she looked at the fire before glancing at Ontari with a devious little grin. "And you from afar, but at least the view is something to look forward to." She was teasing; flirting with the future commander as if it wasn't inappropriate to do so.
"My children's father will be fighting with you. I don't trust him to look out for them... He gets too caught up in his own head." She didn't have much faith in the man. He wasn't much other than the occasional bed warmer and even then... "I know it's probably a lot to ask... but I can't take care of them while I'm watching the Queen. If you're going to be there... it would mean the world if you could keep them safe." The favor was hardly a fair one... She'd come to see Ontari as a friend of sorts. At the very least a sister in arms. Still, asking something like this from the future commander was much even for Morial, but she knew her head would be clearer if she knew that somebody competent would be watching the boys.
"You're probably right; they will probably do well, but I think it's natural for a mother to worry. The Queen doesn't feel that it's a good enough reason to accompany them." There was only a slight hint of resentment for that fact in her tone. Her duty was to her Queen first, which was painful. Not as painful as the punishment for disobeying that order though. Ontari probably understood that better than anyone.

| Her people had been taken... she’d watched them die. The men were taken elsewhere and the women were bled. Morial had only just been taken down from the Mountain Men contraption that had killed so many of her friends. She was emaciated, weak and near death by the time they took her down and put her back into her cage... she thought that it would be the end. She’d given up on seeing her sons again. She had given up on everything. There were no friends here; only Trikru and dying outcasts that would not help her. Nobody could escape this. Hopelessness was a new emotion for Morial. As long as she had her children she had always had hope... but now it seemed that hope was an empty, pointless thing.
She did not even react when the cages began opening. It felt like a dream... she was drifting on the edge of consciousness, with such little awareness of her surroundings or the Skaikru man breaking out her fellow prisoners. When her cage opened, her eyes fluttered... it was a dream. A nightmare where freedom was staring her right in the face but she was too weak to take it for herself. Too weak to move. Helplessly, she reached out to touch the ground beyond the cage. Her fingers traced the dusty concrete floor and she tried so hard to will her thin limbs to move. Others were fleeing in hoards but she couldn’t...
“Sis... au,” she whispered in a hoarse voice. It was barely audible, especially over the fleeing and chaos. She let her hand fall and her head lull back where she stared at the top of the cage she was too weak to evade. She did not have much faith in the man who was freeing them... “Help... please,” she tried again, using the mountain man’s tongue... There was a spark; a prayer among the hopelessness that she could get out of this... that she wouldn’t die here. She couldn’t do it alone.

| As Azgeda villages rallied together and the armies formed, Morial’s own flesh and blood prepared themselves for their first battle. It would not be for another night, but they still sat by the fire and cleaned their virgin swords and muttered excitedly about the bloodshed to come. It was normal for the young warriors to see their first battle at such a young age, especially when it was a fight that would be so easily won if everything went according to plan. Though Morial knew better than to expect the expected. Still, she knew this day would come. She was a proud mother, but as all mothers did, she worried for her children. They would fight with their father, while she stayed with the archers protecting the Queen as they moved forward into Trikru territory. Such a position was an honor, but it also kept her from her sons.
With a small sigh, Morial stood from her place in the snow next to her tent and wandered among the camps. Her children would be safe by the fire with other warriors and children. She needed to clear her head.
Her boots were heavy on the snow and ice, making harsh sounds while she walked through the rows of tents and fires. She wasn’t sure where she was going or what she was after... until she came across Ontari outside her tent. Being close to Nia meant that she was close to Ontari at times as well... She’d only just gotten to know her. She knew that she was a talented fighter as they had fought side by side before, only she was much younger. A large part of Morial pitied her... Nia was harsh and cruel to the future commander. Just because Morial would die for her queen, didn’t mean that she appreciated her cruelty towards her own people. She smiled softly and sat beside Ontari, taking a long moment before she spoke. “Are you going to be fighting on the front tomorrow?” she asked gently, not sure what she wanted the answer to be. “Grey and Cael will be... It’ll be their first battle.”

| ~ • ~ | Character Basics | ~ • ~ | .:Name:. Morial Kom Azgeda .:Nick Name:. None .:Affiliation:. Azgeda, Ice Nation .:Age:. Twenty-Six | ~ • ~ | Appearance | ~ • ~ | .:Physical Appearance:. Morial's hair is long and black and always kept down, but out of her face in a collection of braids. She has dark skin and features that are heavily weighted with Native American features. Her neck is adored in two long symmetrical scars that curl into a crescent shape and her deep brown eyes are always enhanced with dark clay war paint. She is tall with an athletic build, but her figure is slim under the thick armor and clothing she wears to protect herself against the harsh elements. She will often wear armor under clothing even when she is not fighting, mainly due to her paranoid nature. Her dark lips are thin with a defined cupids bow and her nose is slight and upturned with a small bump where it was once broken. .:Height:. 5'9" .:Portrayed by:. Jessica Matten | ~ • ~ | Personality | ~ • ~ | .:Personality:. Morial is cold and abrasive around people that she does not know. For many years her people have been at war with every other nation inside the alliance, and she has fought valiantly beside many fallen men and women. It has left a mark on her and unlike blood, that mark will never wash away. With her people though, she is kind and affectionate. She only wants what is best for them and if that means she needs to fight for it she will, but if they need a gentle approach she is capable of that as well. It's much harder for her to be kind to people who are not her own though, due to the years of war. She's been trained to kill, not ask questions. An alliance may soothe political standpoints but Morial will forever be on the defensive. .:Special Skills:. Morial is a fighter who is skilled in many fields of combat, but her strength with a bow is impressive by anyone's standards. Her keen ability to predict enemy movements makes her an especially good marksman from behind the front lines. She specializes in combat against humans, rather than hunting though. War torn fighters are easier to predict than fleeing animals. | ~ • ~ | History | ~ • ~ | .:Birthplace:. Azgeda Territory .:Family:. Morial is the fourth child of a huntress and a warrior. Her three brothers are also fighters, though her father was slain in a battle against Trigeda. Her mother is still a hunter though and they have a close relationship. When not at war, Morial assists her mother with skinning and preparing meats for her village. She has two sons named Grey and Cael with a warrior who she never married. They are still very young but will train one day to be warriors themselves. .:Occupation:. Warrior .:History:. When Morial was born, she was always fighting for attention. Her brothers were older, stronger and good at getting their way when it came to their father. When Morial was old enough to hold up a sword she was fighting more with her steel than her words, and soon she became as good if not better than her older siblings. She was desperate for her parents approval and when she received it, it was a high that she never wanted to lose. She's always put her family and her people first in every battle. Her people are her strength. When war broke out among the clans she fought viciously and killed hundreds of their enemies. Children and seasoned warriors died at the end of her blade or the head of her arrow, but they were all the same to her. Threats to those she loved. She understood fighting... she'd been doing it all her life. Somewhere among the violence, she was blessed with two sons. Grey and Cael. Their father was a warrior like her just as their sons would one day be. The life of a passive was simply not one for her. She returned to her village and waited without patience for her Queen to strike down the commander and to allow them to fight once again. When Skaikru fell, she was prepared to fight them as well. All this time, Morial has been waiting and stewing; waiting for the next fight and raising her sons. Now that their queen has been struck down, she stands behind their once banished King. Her mother is unlike her children and does not have the thirst for conflict that they share. Instead, she has been trying to calm her children and teach them to live without waiting for the next fight. It hasn't been successful, but out of respect Morial has worked with her mother without complaint while her brothers have learned to hunt. Silently, she waits for the day when they will fight Skaikru... it will happen. | ~ • ~ | Member Info | ~ • ~ | .:Name or Online Alias:. Amber .:How Did You Find Us:. I had a dream about this place. In my dream I saw a vision. It was beautiful; iridescent with abs of steel, dark curly locks, tanned skin and a blinding smile. Wait what was the question again? I don't remember I was making a joke about Euphoria luring me here and I forgot my point.
