Plot

The universe is vast, dark and cold, but also full of life. Things that appear dull and dead from your planet might be colorful and full of life. It is said that the universe, itself, is a living thing. It might be a curious statement, seeing as Earth's dictionary defines the universe as being the totality of known or supposed ob[injection]jects and phenomena throughout space; the cosmos; macrocosm. However, on another, more intelligent planet, the definition is more exact; The Universe is a being in form of capsule. The Universe holds life forms together and is the superior force that moves them. The Universe is the guardian of creatures and ensures that extinction never touches them. Although the definition is more exact, it still isn't correct. The Almighty Universe is both the board, pla[injection]yer and opponent of a game. The game, you may ask, is the game of life and death. The Universe plays this game for each planet, which ultimately decides the fate of the planet. It is a back and forth cycle and it could take centuries to finish. If life wins, the planet will flourish in good fortune and the creatures of the planet will live for generations! However, if death wins, the centuries it took to play the game will come to an end quickly. Death will wash over the planet without no warning. The creatures on the planet will die, but since The Universe has many obligations, the creatures won't go extinct.

Greetings,
You are probably wondering where you are right now and why you are here. In reading this letter you will come to terms with the events that has and will happened.
First things first, you probably have already figured out that you are in a glass tank. As you observe and take in your surroundings you will come to realize that there are more glass tanks around you. And not just glass tanks, but there are other life forms in the tanks. Now, don't freak out. Take a deep breath and keep reading, for I shall explain to you what you are seeing. 
As you know, The Universe is vast, and holds a key to the unknown. There are lots of things that are not in your knowledge's grasp, however, you being here will allow your knowledge to thrive.
Here, all around you, are creatures from dying planets from the far reaches of The Universe. Only intelligent creatures who's planets are dying are sent here. I am trying to preserve creatures and keep them away from extinction. And, if you have connected the dots already, you will have understood the reason you are here. Your planet is on the verge of dying and I am keeping your race away from extinction. However, if you are not able to survive on this planet, then there is no hope for your race. It will be noted as a "Mistake Race" and never be created in The Universe again.
Now, with that said, you are probably wondering where you are exactly. Well, you are on a planet that holds no exact name. You are on a planet that floats in the abyss of The Universe, safe from harm and safe from other planets. You are given a second chance at life and what you do with your new life is up to you. However, to get things straight, you are not allowed to attempt to leave this planet and you will never go back to your own planet.
I know, that the world outside this dim lit cave filled with glass tanks gives you no clue on what the outside world looks like, so I will explain it to you briefly. At night, the sky is a deep and rich purple, and in the morning the sky is a powder blue that almost looks translucent. The sun is bight and white, though small in the sky. The moon, at night, is a deep crimson color, and looks as if it takes up half the sky. There is also a tinier moon that appears to be the same size as the sun. The moon is also a bright white, but it radiates cold not heat, and it moves back and forth against the night sky. The trees have small, round, pink blossoms that bloom throughout the day. They turn into emerald leaves around noon and turn crisp as the sun falls. From emerald green, the colors fall mimicking the colors of the sky. It transitions to a powder blue, a deep topaz, a fiery amber, a ruby red, a shimmering silver, then a deep rich purple. Then, when the sun rises, the leaves repeat their cycle. There is much, much more that could be explained, but you will see for yourself soon enough.
With all this information swimming around in your head, it is now time. Time to escape from this glass tank, only the worthy and lucky creatures will. For once you escape, it is up to you to help others escape as well or leave them behind as you explore your new home. But beware, some of these creatures are dangerous, and some hold great powers. 
Wishing you all the luck,
The Universe

Name: Charlotte Camorelle

Age: 17

Gender: Female

Creature: Dark/Night Elf

Power: She has the power of manipulating shadows. 

PersonalityAlthough she may be on her way to adulthood, Charlotte has always acted like a child. She is stubborn like a child, wanting things her way, persistent until she gets things her way. However, she is also optimistic and enjoys life. She lives every day without a care in the world, and is blind to the bad side of life. She is very naive and doesn't really understand the dangers in the world and when something goes wrong, Charlotte gets very uncomfortable and tenses up, clueless on a solution. Along with being uncomfortable in bad situations, she also gets uncomfortable in crowded areas. Like the saying goes, 3 is a crowd (well at least it is for Charlotte). But, the things that make her uncomfortable can all be overlooked when the situation deals with something she passionate about. And in Charlotte's case, that is adventure. She yearns for adventure and is determined to get it one way or another. 

Appearance: x

History: The planet of Dökkálfar (Dark Elves) is a mysterious and dangerous place. Dark Elves are evil creatures who enjoy inflicting pain on others and a ton of other devious, yet sacred rituals that brings bad luck if spoken aloud to others. Petie didn't like living as a dark elf, she hated the rituals, the bloodshed, the crowd. The whole notion of her race was sickening and uncomfortable to her. So, she decided that she would change her ways. One morning, when the dark elves hid away in their caves, she performed a cleansing ritual to rid away the dark soul she was enti[injection]tled to at birth. This process was painful and long, for it was a ritual created by the Dark elves. Once the ritual was done, Petie had gone through an immense change. Instead of the dark, charcoal skin that Dark elves were always born with, hers grew light. The dearness of her skin had now seeped into her eyes that were once red. And the red that were in her eyes seeped out onto her hair. She had converted and was banned from the Dökkálfar  clan, and had to fend for herself.

Other: For some reason, she likes to be called Petie

Name-

Tigger, though he goes by Trigger, Trig or Tig. He actually quite despises the name Tigger

Age-

Four human years

Gender-

Male

Creature-

A Thylacine, more commonly known as the Tasmanian Tiger

Power-

None

Personality-

 Tigger is impatient, stubborn, and needs to be in charge at all times. He can't stand it when something doesn't go his way or if something goes wrong, and will go out of his way to make sure things happen the way he wants them to. He hates standing around for more than two seconds and has to be doing something constantly or he'll go insane. He feels like he needs to be leader at all times and is always attempting to take charge, whether he's out of place or not.  If he does manage to gain a leadership position, you may learn he's not the best captain. He hates work and prefers to avoid it at all costs. He has trouble being social with others and prefers to keep his own space at all times, though if you break past his bubble and get to know him he's deeper than the bratty, shallow little kid-appearance he may give off at first glance. He's truly easily depressed and always full of some odd pent-up anger deep inside of him that causes him to act the way he does, and in all honestly he really just wants a friend but doesn't have the willpower to step out of his comfort zone and actually attempt to make friends himself

Appearance-

An average looking Tasmanian Tiger, nothing out of the ordinary besides his slightly more golden-colored fur and his stripes, which run along his entire back instead of just the majority 

I'll see if I can find the time to draw him sometime

History-

Tigger was born on a small, unnamed planet that is tucked away in and hidden in the vaster, darker parts of the solar system. His mother saw him as a cute, furry little cub covered in plentiful stripes, and thought the name "Tigger" was an adorable variation of the word "Tiger" and named him that, much to his own dismay, as he never grew to like his name. Extinct on Earth and rare even on this planet, his parents were apart of one of the few packs of these creatures left. This planet had much trouble sustaining life, as it could be blistering hot one day and freezing cold the next. The nearest water sources could be boiling over and then frozen solid the day after. Tigger was born on a day that his planet called a "Dark Day", where not even a sliver of sun shines and the sky is bleak, gray and cold. Despite being born small on such a dreary day, he prospered the first year of his life, which was spent tagging along with his parents to hunt for food. By the time he was two, he was full grown, independent and ready to take on the world. And then one fateful day, a terrible blizzard swept in and he lost his pack, mother and father in the storm. He awoke laying on the side of a stream, and didn't bother looking for his family or pack and just stayed by the river and made his home there

Other-

Nope

Name:

Acaine

Age:

1 millenia. [For his race, that's 19]

Gender:

Male

Creature:

Chaos Warlord

Power:

Acaine was blessed with two abilities; A heightened sense of all his physical abilities and The ability to use one selected spell which protects him from friendly harm.

Personality:

As with most Chaos Warlords, Acaine is quiet aloof at first, but that's where the similarities stop. He has a quiet sense of humour and slightly sarcastic nature, but none of the wickedness that one would expect from a race born for war. Acaine has a soft spot for both creatures and animals, but when it comes to his friends, he is a little too loyal and reckless. He acts a bit like a child most of the time, refusing to do things if he doesn't ant to by folding his arms and saying "No." Quiet a bit of pent up old anger and resentment was inside him, and he tends to lash out at people as they start getting closer to him. If someone looks past the stubborn, willful child with a voice that cause harm better than a sword at times, and they were t become a true friend of his, they would have earned themselves a big, stubborn, overprotective..... Four year old with a giant suit of armour and sword, who is quiet good company.

Appearance:

He looks like this : Link

With this head : Link

History:

Acaine grew up on Terra 9, not knowing or caring who his genetic parents were. Chapter Librarians taught him how to harness his powers, but he didn't really care about that. The Librarians later realized that had been the first in a series of differences between Acaine and the rest of their warlike race. Still, as Chaos were a warlike race, they sent him off to a war training camp, where he spent 500,000 years until he was 900,000 [18]. It was there that they gave him armour. He made one friend, who was sent to war the year before him. Just as Acaine was about to leave Terra 9 he got the news that his friend was dead. From there, everything went down hill. Bombs hit from other, conquered plants, destroying his race and beautiful Terra 9. Terra 9 was an equally divided water/land ratio with most of the land being covered either by forests or mountains. The main cities looked a bit like roman ones, but with a giant armory on every street.

Other:

He often curses in his home tongue.

Name: Xander Krill
Age~ 6 Umicksep years, or 18 Earth years.
Gender: Genderless; but he considers himself male.
Creature: Kali, a distant cousin of the Mer-people. They are more humanistic than the Mer. They have two legs with webbed feet, and their hands are also webbed. Their skin is a mixture of greenish skin and thin fish-like scales. They have both gills and a nose, so they can breathe both on land and under water. They are built for swimming, so they prefer to be in water, but they can survive one land. When walking on land, they have issues running and have a tendency to trip or stumble. The Kali are omnivores, and they can eat raw fish, but not other raw meat. They are born genderless and don't develop sex organs until they are about 10. They communicate by making a mixture of clicking and other noises underwater or talking above water. They are mostly nocturnal and sleep at the bottom of a body of water when sleeping.
Power: Nothing unusual
Personality: Quiet; not very talkative. When on Umicksep, he preferred to stay underwater and and catch fish all night. Xander has can make friends quickly, but he loses interest easily in them and will stop talking to them. He is a bit lazy and tends to procrastinate on things he knows that he should do.
Appearance: Xander looks like an average Kali. He has dark green eyes and net-like, pale green hair. Because he is young, he has no reason to wear clothes, so he doesn't. He is slim and quick in water.
History: The Kali have lived on Umicksep, a planet that is 90% covered in water, for thousands of generations. It was believed that they may have first been land creatures that moved into the ocean in search of prey. Now, the Kali are water creatures that sometimes go to land for protection.
Born from an egg like every other Kali, Xander grew up not knowing exactly who his parents were. He lived in a school of other Kali his age, the Kali giving him food daily, until he was 5. From then on, he lived on his own, catching fish, eating fish, and sometimes playing with the other Kali.
Other: Nope
