A CONTEST ENTRY FOR THE DOE
Kimeti Name: If Not Restrained
Personality: A mute, restrained doe who saw the affects of unrestrained excess in her naming dream, If Not Restrained believes in maintaining balance in all ways. She does not speak, the swamp is already loud enough with the singing of all creatures; she does not run necessarily, the wind and kiokote race enough, so she walks. She always maintains inner balance so that her inner self will not blind her to the needs of the swamp.
Scout or Caretaker: Scout, though she also enjoys the role of caretaker.
Role in Tribe: If Not Restrained, in some ways is an extremely emotional doe, but she is also consummately in control and knows how to disperse her emotions and restrain herself. She believes in balance in all things, starting with herself, and then extending to the rest of the swamp. She believes fiercely and with her entire being that balance is necessary and so she has no trouble culling populations and, in her silence, is a surprisingly good silent mediator of conflicts.

Kimeti Name: Walking on Eggshells
Personality: Even keeled and cautious, but unafraid, Tiptoe is observant and highly attuned to the swamp. He thinks carefully before he acts, but once he has made a decision, he has no trouble following through.
Scout or Caretaker: Caretaker
Role in Tribe: Walking on Eggshells' light steps makes him uniquely suited to walking amongst the newly planted seeds and young sprouts. He carefully tends to young plants and makes sure that other kin, outsiders, do not trample them. He is also has a great range of knowledge about plants and how to use them to heal kin.

A CONTEST ENTRY FOR THE DOE
Kimeti Name: Burning Cage
Personality: She'll be a feisty little thing, bold and confident. She doesn't mess around and is basically a workaholic. Striving to be the best, and strongest, her pride does have a tendency to blind her.
Scout or Caretaker: Scout
Role in Tribe: She'd do best in hunting, and protecting those of her tribe. She's very dutiful, but not beyond doing what is needed for her tribe if asked; such as typical things a caretaker may do.
A CONTEST ENTRY FOR THE BUCK
Kimeti Name: Caged Heart
Personality: A usually quite male, who has a tendency to keep to himself. He's selfless, and will easily put another's well being before his own. Socializing isn't something he's very skilled at, thus he doesn't have many close connections with anyone but those who accept his silence.
Scout or Caretaker:Caretaker
Role in Tribe: Planting new seeds will be his most common job, as he quite enjoys it. Harvesting is also not too far behind, fruits and veggies wise.

A NEW MEMBER LOOKING TO JOIN
Kimeti Name: Unwinding Fern
Personality: Quirky, playful, eccentric. She loves jokes and tricks and clever stories, but she doesn't care for those that are in bad taste or pranks that are genuinely harmful. She seeks out flowers and greenery, and has taken a special liking to the poisonous kind.
Scout or Caretaker: A mix, but more caretaker than scout. While Fern doesn't exactly shy away from violence, she doesn't see the point of killing unless it's for eating. If it's for eating, though...
Role in Tribe: Fern has taken a keen interest in vegetation of all types, the more colorful and exotic, the better. She has become excellent at identifying (and cultivating) what is good to eat, what most certainly isn't, and how much to consume of the most toxic plants in order to achieve the good effects while skipping on the poison. This has medicinal and recreational value.

Entries gathered for our sanity:
DOE ENTRIES:
Kitty Sprightt entry Kimeti Name: Caterwaul Personality: Contrary to her name, she is no more prone to complaint than anyone else. She's a little bit irritable, a little rough around the edges, but has a good heart. Scout or Caretaker: Primarily caretaker. Role in Tribe: Mostly concerned with growing things, and doing so efficiently. In her free time, she experiments with plants to see what conditions are their perfect ideal. Good information to have when considering what plants to grow where.
Cynnybun entry Kimeti Name: Hiding Place Personality: A doe built on deception, Hiding Place is at first sweet and beautiful, but deadly underneath. She will not hesitate to do what is necessary, even if it means killing off populations to maintain balance. It is unknown whether or not she does it out of pleasure or because she is ordered to, but she never complains. Scout or Caretaker: Hiding Place would most likely be best suited for a Scout position, but is not necessarily against being a Caretaker, either. She definitely prefers being a Scout, but would not be above clean up in a less violent way, either. Role in Tribe: She would most likely be responsible for maintaining balance in terms of population numbers. She'd also be one of the more subtle defenses against newcomers, more passive-aggressive than flat-out attacking them. She could also be used as a method of convincing others that what the tribe does is for the best, regardless of the number of deaths needed.
SilverShieldwolf entry Kimeti Name: Ground Cover Personality: Sweet and innocent looking, Ground is not as she looks. She is wild when it comes to fixing up the land. Some times better off on her own. Scout or Caretaker: Scout Role in Tribe: Ground is not afraid to do what is necessary to keep the swamp going. She will kill what she has to, with little regret. From moving debris to working on balancing the food chain, Ground is there with a slight wild look in her eyes.
Aric Val entry Kimeti Name: Undertone (Breath) Personality: She does not speak unless prompted to, but when she does he voice is smooth and gentle yet having a demanding presence. She is set in her ways, serious in whatever she does and will not rest until the job is done. Scout or Caretaker: Caretaker Role in Tribe: Breath is meticulous in her work, having a liking to keep things orderly and clean with nothing out of order. Her ways are always just and equal, wanting to keep things balanced in the tribe.
Amizade entry Kimeti Name: Speedwell Personality: Speedwell is a quick-tempered and violent doe, but not an idiot. She bottles her anger and pours it into her work, making for an efficient and rather ruthless scout. Scout or Caretaker: Scout Role in Tribe: Ugly and destructive in her anger, Speedwell would have no difficulty culling populations or dealing with trespasses.
Amorpheous entry Kimeti Name: If Not Restrained Personality: A mute, restrained doe who saw the affects of unrestrained excess in her naming dream, If Not Restrained believes in maintaining balance in all ways. She does not speak, the swamp is already loud enough with the singing of all creatures; she does not run necessarily, the wind and kiokote race enough, so she walks. She always maintains inner balance so that her inner self will not blind her to the needs of the swamp. Scout or Caretaker: Scout, though she also enjoys the role of caretaker. Role in Tribe: If Not Restrained, in some ways is an extremely emotional doe, but she is also consummately in control and knows how to disperse her emotions and restrain herself. She believes in balance in all things, starting with herself, and then extending to the rest of the swamp. She believes fiercely and with her entire being that balance is necessary and so she has no trouble culling populations and, in her silence, is a surprisingly good silent mediator of conflicts.
musicaloner7 entry Kimeti Name: Burning Cage Personality: She'll be a feisty little thing, bold and confident. She doesn't mess around and is basically a workaholic. Striving to be the best, and strongest, her pride does have a tendency to blind her. Scout or Caretaker: Scout Role in Tribe: She'd do best in hunting, and protecting those of her tribe. She's very dutiful, but not beyond doing what is needed for her tribe if asked; such as typical things a caretaker may do.
Jun D entry Kimeti Name: Erupt Personality: When she angers, which is often, everything around her seems to close in and she must explode - then she seeks open ground and blood to spill to keep from turning her fury upon her loved ones. Scout or Caretaker: Scout Role in Tribe: Her explosive temper and the need to expend it makes her a savage fighter, so she is most often employed to dissuade intruders and kill what needs culling. Though she does not outwardly show it, she harbours a constant remorse over the brutality she finds hard to control, and quietly nurtures a small patch of yarrow with Faith's instruction - the blood-staunching salves the latter makes from it feel a rudimentary attempt at atonement for her.
BUCK ENTRIES:
Astraea Pandora entry Kimeti Name: Torchwood - "Scorch" Personality: A tough buck, He enjoys getting into the thick of rows to break them up, kicking out tresspassers, and anything that involves locking horns with someone else. He'd like to learn to mediate more fights but often gets frustrated, feeling that a good head but or a light thrashing solves problems faster talking. He has a couple of soft spots however, including a belief destined love. Scout or Caretaker: Torchwood's duties lean more toward being a Scout, though he has a small, secret Caretaking interest... Role in Tribe: Torchwood is a skull cracker. He patrols, breaks up fights, tosses out trespassers, and generally keeps the peace. He doesn't enjoy killing animals, even though it's for the good of Matope, though he tries to avoid having to go out hunting or on jobs that require slaughtering of animals. However he has no problems having to kill other Kin who threaten his family or his tribe. One to one of his favorite things to do (though he doesn't want to caught at it least it deminish his tough reputation) is to care for and grow the red poppy flowers that mark their territory, which he does near daily on his patrols.
Sarano_Krem entry Kimeti Name: Wild Treebark Personality: Treebark is a caring and protective buck. He loves all things big and small and will fight to the death to protect someone or something he cares for. Scout or Caretaker: Wild Treebark is definitely both, but sees caretaking as a passtime where as being a Scout is a duty he swore himself to. Role in Tribe: Treebark is a buck in tune with nature. He finds great pleasure in tending to a garden or playing with the small creatures that call the Swamp home. He also views himself as the designated protector of the defenseless plant and wildlife. He will at first show politeness to an invading buck or doe and ask them to leave. If however they persist and threaten the well being of the tribe or the balance they protect, he has no qualms or regrets about beating the kin within an inch of their life or even to death.
Lural entry Kimeti Name: Hawkeye Personality: Over protective of family and tribesmen, very weary of anyone -or anything- he doesn't know. Scout or Caretaker: Scout Role in Tribe: While not particularly strong when compared to other kin, he has sharp eyes and a loud voice. He is able to call warning of approaching kin, enough so to warn the tribe (And probably those who approach). To make up for what he lacks against other kin in terms of strength, Hawk would have no problems on patrols, keeping the balance and helping kill and clear out what throws off the harmony of the motherfather.
Aric Val entry Kimeti Name: Braveheart Personality: Careful and observant, Brave is a sort of buck you wouldn't expect to listen to your problems or give advice because he may look intimidating--but he does it very well and sincerely. Scout or Caretaker: Scout Role in Tribe: Brave is a quiet guardian. Content to roam around and secure the area around those who he wants to protect and not afraid to act on his own to eliminate any kind of threat that he does see.
anemosagkelos entry Kimeti Name: Shed This Life Personality: Shed is an expert at disconnecting himself and thus has no qualms when it comes to bettering the swamp. His only concern besides the swamp is his tribemates and himself. Scout or Caretaker: Scout Role in Tribe: Shed would excel in killing overpopulation and keeping the tribe members bellies filled. He also has a knack for sorting out fights between tribemates.
Appeal entry Kimeti Name: Jawless Personality: Jawless should have been named Spineless. Not only is he not very good at anything but he has no courage to even attempt to become better at anything other than taking orders. He's Wintershadow's grandson, what if he failed? It frightens Jawless greatly. Scout or Caretaker: Caretaker Role in Tribe: Jawless does what he can: Carrying things for other Caretakers. He makes a great pack mule, call on him and he'll quietly help you with anything you ask him to!
Ruriska entry Kimeti Name: Brazen Tone Personality: Bold, dismissive, devoted. "We are inconsequential. Your life especially is but a speck in the grand work that is the Swamp. Now stop wriggling around while I clean your wound." Scout or Caretaker: Caretaker Role in Tribe: Brazen brings a meticulous eye and dedication when caring for the Swamp. He has a flair for nursing sick, weak and injured creatures. Despite having a horrible bedside manner, he is devoted to whatever charge he is currently caring for.
musicaloner7 entry Kimeti Name: Caged Heart Personality: A usually quite male, who has a tendency to keep to himself. He's selfless, and will easily put another's well being before his own. Socializing isn't something he's very skilled at, thus he doesn't have many close connections with anyone but those who accept his silence. Scout or Caretaker:Caretaker Role in Tribe: Planting new seeds will be his most common job, as he quite enjoys it. Harvesting is also not too far behind, fruits and veggies wise.
Vesperiie entry Kimeti Name: Caught Between (Crossfire) -- Or he could just be Crossfire. You guys can decide which you like best, because I can't at the moment @_@ Personality: A selfless and gentle soul, caught in the crossfire of an imperfect world. Fighting happens, and destruction is necessary – it is his solemn duty to carry out both with minimal harm. Scout or Caretaker: Scout Role in Tribe: Crossfire does not and will never enjoy violence, which makes his self-appointed role as a scout unexpected at best. Gifted (some would say burdened) with an indelible sense of responsibility, he believes it is precisely his reluctance to do harm that allows him to do it well: he destroys only that which is necessary with careful precision and has trained himself to take lives quickly and painlessly. He is also a dutiful tribe mediator -- when conflict arises, Crossfire will be watching, a silent presence who takes no sides but won't hesitate to interpose himself the instant things turn violent.
Blinded By Silence entry Kimeti Name: Just In Thyme Personality: A buck of little words and an open mind, Thyme uses his aptitude with herbs to mix salves and concoctions for tribe use. While morally he prefers using his abilities for healing, this buck can mix up toxins so potent they can kill almost painlessly. Scout or Caretaker: Caretaker Role in Tribe: A talented herbalist with the power to heal and a keen eye for vegetation, Thyme uses his abilities to help the tribe stay healthy. He is also quite skilled with poisonous plants which he uses to stir up toxins.
