[Teal]

Name: Teal
Gender: Male
Species: Yoshi
Weapon: Halberd
Magic: Wind Element  
Personality: Very intelligent and kind-hearted but is short tempered. Resourceful when fighting and likes helping others. Fights to defend the island but doesn't hate humans.
Description: Dark-teal colored yoshi wearing a dark brown leather jacket and a long red scarf. Halberd slung diagonally across his back.
Squad: Yoshies on Yoshi's island  
 
Background: A bit of an outcast, he has a rare or uncommon skin color. He used to be sickly and bullied when he was very young on the island but a human somehow saved him from a near death experience and took care of him off the island. During his time off the island he learned many things about humans and their technology and can actually operate certain human-made vehicles like a jeep. If it weren't for the human Teal would be dead by now and because of that he doesn't take anything for granted. The human has given him the scarf as a memento of their friendship and tragically died from an apparent accident when he released Teal back to the island. Teal is not respected by some yoshies who think he's crazy when he talks about human technology. He may not hate humans like others because he believes there are good humans. The human kept the island's whereabouts a secret but it is possible that this information was found by others after the human's death. Some humans might recognize Teal.

(Is this alright? Sorry about the long background I like complex characters.)

Ok now we need at least 2 more people in different squads

[Yoshiken]

Name: Vaidyn Haylewood

Gender: Male

Species: Human

Weapons: He is most effective with his longbow, although he does have a broadsword that he uses if the fight was close-range. However, if he has the time, he will create traps first before engaging the enemy. These traps can include anything from the simple deep pitfalls and hidden nets, to the more complex hazards such as string-triggered crossbows that are hidden in trees. He is more of a strategist than a fighter, even though he does have a good amount of training in both archery and swordfighting.

Magic: He has no magic abilities.

Personality: Vaidyn is very logical and down-to-earth. He loves Chess, and plays it often. He often views battles and wars just like the game, and is able to analyze these battles in such a way as to read opponents moves far in advance before those moves are executed. He always relies on others to back him up, and would rather be with a small group than alone. He can be stubborn and judgmental at times, but he always treats his friends well, and would never abandon them.

Description: Vaidyn came from a wealthy noble family that helped to fund a certain government official get into office. That government official was exiled after some faulty evidence showed that he was planning an assassination of another candidate. Vaidyn's parents were blamed as co-conspirators, imprisoned, executed, and had their wealth taken by the government. Vaidyn was filled with lies from the officials that had planned it all. He was put into the government militia as an archer, and soon moved up in rank due to his skills as a strategist, and currently is employed as such.

He has taken in the stereotype that yoshis are horrible creatures due to the propaganda around him. He often sees them as unintelligent savage animals that kill to get what they want. He doesn't usually use the term "yoshis" to describe them, but rather some other derogatory terms that show them as subhuman. He happily agreed to be in the force that invaded yoshi's island when the request came from the government.

Description/Background:
(will post a picture of character when ready)

Cevik, born with the strange ability to manipulate electricity down to the atomic level, came from a mysterious and wealthy family, both sides of it very hidden from society. One of his parents came from a clan of ambitious scientists and engineers while the other a clan of martial artists and mystics. In his early years, he has undergone extreme discipline, the methods considered unethical by many, to learn the various arts and tech from both sides of the family. One day, after some years, his entire family has mysteriously disappeared and Cevik was somehow found unconscious on a street. Soon, he had a new life being adopted by a loving family, who has relations with the military. Due to his exceptional abilities with various arts and tech, he quickly was involved in the military itself, being part of a secret, special force.

In the military, he finds himself undergoing more training, being taught how to kill, how to survive in a battlefield, how to break into the enemy intelligence, how to spy/scout, and much more. He really detests the training, but he is taught that it is for the good of the country. In the military, however, he is bullied by many and is considered an outcast for being some sort of freak. In the military, he feels lonely and abused.

At home, he usually goes into the empty basement and does various experiments with his mystical abilities, creating some of his own equipment. He also enjoys reading/listening stories. He barely has any friends, but he has two very trusted friends that would visit him from time to time. One day, his two friends talked about one of their private voyages and how they ended up in some mysterious island for weeks. In the mysterious island, they describe it as some sort of paradise, but that there are some strange creatures called Yoshis inhabiting it. The creatures are described as friendly and loving. They have befriended some and learned a lot about them and their island. However, when they left the island, they had to make a promise with the Yoshis to keep the island a secret for the protection of the island from possible invasions. They had visited the island more than once to learn more about the Yoshis and the island.

However, a few weeks later, there was news from the military that they have discovered a new mysterious island, the same island that Cevik’s two friends discovered earlier. The Yoshis that inhabited it were somehow dubbed a threat to mankind and the military started killing them off, attempting to take control of the island. Cevik and his friends were in disbelief about the news, it being a grave disaster. Few more days later, more news from the military has revealed that the Yoshis are now mobilizing together to initiate a counterattack; they have declared war.

More days later, sightings of Yoshis reaching to the homeland have been alerted. Cevik was then called up by the military to further investigate the Yoshis that have arrived and then to deal the necessary actions, that is… to eliminate the threat. Confused on what to do, he has no choice but to follow the orders. He decides to handle and lead this investigation initially alone with his two friends and gets prepared for the newly declared “war”. He questions the actions of the military, and decides that he will do everything in his power to end the war quickly and peacefully, even if it means betrayal.
