Blurb

In the streets of Nathirabad, a bustling city on the Sindh coast, a community of half-snake, half-human individuals gathered from an international forum hide from the general public in fear of the beasts they are thought to be. Rumours & bedtime stories circulate blaming them for the flaws of the community.

For a little while they manage to reside in quiet peace, until one of them falls prey to the weight on his shoulders from the powers granted. Each of the ‘natheren’ is granted a unique elemental, mortuary, or communicative ability in their teenage, before which all memories of the life they had are removed.

As a result of the sudden rebellion, the basic premises of their powers are pushed aside, & the humans of the neighbourhood are groped in once again, except this time, they’ve agreed to keep it to themselves lest they be called cynical.

The colourful Cast
Hi! Since I am not ready to waste any time going off on long-winded explanations of each character’s looks, here’s the long-winded explanation for each of the main cast. Leila Ma’a (viperen); Ah yes, the protagonist. Features: Pale, dark, long and straight hair, Arabic, and a bad fashion sense. Her ears are unlike yours or mine and are elven ears, i.e., they resemble elves’ ears. She works a job in fashion retail (ironic, ain’t it). Leila also has a scar across her face. She wears a deep purple turtleneck (it has a slit in the middle of the neck so it doesn’t choke her) with Adawna’s hand-painted heart on it covered by a Prussian blue top with light blue vertical lines running across it. Along with that, she wears a golden-yellow pleated skirt with leather boots that look like they have a collar with a single stripe above the ankle. Adawna Ma’a (could-have-been pythron); Leila’s little sister and Melanie’s best friend. Features: Looks similar to Leila, other than the hetero-chromatic eyes (unlike Leila’s hazel eyes.) They’re hazel at the centre and green towards the outside of the eye. She copied Leila’s fashion sense since she was her role model and parental unit. The difference is that she ties her wavy hair in a ponytail and she doesn’t cover up the heart. Aibek Naar (cobren); Leila’s betraying best friend who goes on a killing spree. (And also Sakin’s) Features: Moroccan with elven ears, dark auburn hair, and dark chocolate skin, has a scar across his left eye messing it up, half a right elf ear, and a British accent. The other eye is as dark as the shadows. He wears army green British trousers and a red-orange gradient full-sleeved tee with black leather shoes. Odin Onyx (mamber); The cold-hearted greeter who’ll sympathise with anyone. Melanie’s older brother and Dolores’ younger brother (middle). Features: Finnish-albino, platinum-blonde hair and violet eyes with super pale skin. He keeps it simple with a stark grey hoodie with a cute little ghost on it and dark black jeans alongside black and white sneakers. Dolores Onyx (shield); The oldest of three and the responsible eldest of the cast. Features: Pale skin and dark green eyes with butterfly-shaped ears, white sleeves-cuffed shirt and tights covered by a grey cropped (half-sleeved) hoodie with a little ghost and shorts along with flat white tennis shoes. She dyes the ends of her dark wavy hair platinum blonde since Odin used to feel insecure about his albinism. Finnish. Melanie Onyx (colourbird); Adawna’s best friend and the youngster to Odin and Dolores. Features: Like Dolores, she is Finnish and has butterfly-shaped ears along with grey eyes and dark, straight hair. She wears a pink hoodie with a skull and deep purple diamond shoulder patches and dark black jeans. Sakin Okyanus (anacondaer); Ryeon and Aibek’s best friend. Features: Aussie with dark skin, eyes, and hair in an undercut. He wears a short-sleeved tan button-down shirt and dark brown British trousers alongside deep brown dress shoes with dark blue heels and an orange-golden watch. Ryeon Sular (human); Sakin’s best friend and Ammara’s hydrokinetic twin. Features: Pakistani with fair skin, dark eyes, freckles, and blue hair dyed black. He wears an army green baseball cap to hide his roots, dark blue jeans, and a dark teal shirt with a droplet in front of a fire on it. He also has a rain pattern on his sleeves and bright blue sneakers with an orange stripe and underside. Ammara Sular (human); Ryeon’s powerless twin. Features: Pakistani with fair skin, dark eyes, freckles, and blue hair dyed black. She wears a black bandana with blue wavy lines to hide her roots, dark blue jeans, and a deep purple and teal kurta with a rain pattern on her oversized sleeves, though the teal stripe is mostly hidden by a flat blue scarf. Alongside, she wears bright blue sneakers with an orange stripe and underside. Iris Yanginlar (human); The monster Aibek unleashes. Features: Fair-skinned Pakistani with dark eyes. She wears her pink, cropped winged-sleeve shirt and skirt with a pink and red stripe over a black tee and tights. Alongside, she wears simple white tennis trainers and her redhead in pigtails. Friends & Foes In life, one meets both friends and foes Those who oppose and worsen the lows Upon whom your anger grows But just as you’re about to break their bones, Fate bestows. And sends a friend, to counter, your way. In life, one meets both foes and friends Those, on whom you can depend, And both ways defend. Even in the lows, you make amends. And a helping hand they always lend For those you befriend are the purest of gems For if it wasn’t for both your foes and your friends, The spice to your life may as well end.
