=== Background ===
''An outcaste Dragonblood, soldiers of the Realm came across him tending a quiet, beautiful garden in the East with his anima in full display since he'd just fended off a dangerous animal. After being given a chance to gather up his things he was taken to the Realm and adopted by House [to be decided], but turned out to be a disappointment. While he participated in the mandated passing-on-of-the-blood, he had little interest in any other aspects of his duties as a Dragonblooded citizen of the Realm.''
''Blossom used to be part of a rather large family with a lot of Dragonblooded blood in its veins, if asked where it is, he'll reply that it's "somewhere out east." If pressed he'll admit that he went wandering one morning and never got around to finding his way back. Some years ago, soldiers of the Realm found him tending a surprisingly magnificent garden in the middle of a forest while chasing criminals. After he disarmed half of them with his hoe, they realized he was Dragonblooded and dragged him back to the realm where he was subsequently adopted.''


''Instead, Blossom spent most of his time doing the thing he really cared about: Tending gardens and wandering the wilds. He eventually disappeared pretty much entirely from the public view, and from his adopted house's memory, treated like little more than another servant and never demanding much else.''
''Unfortunately for his adopted family, Blossom was pretty much impossible to make a part of Realm life. An absent-minded, kind-hearted wanderer, he spent most of his time in gardens and parks, tending to plants(and talking to them) or tending to those who couldn't afford to be treated anywhere. Aside from the required passing-on-of-the-blood, he participated in none of his new house's affairs and eventually they ended up forgetting about him. Since then he's managed to wander his way out of the Realm again, searching for new wonders to behold and new people to help.''


''If he's outside of the Realm, Blossom's probably just decided that his gardens could survive without him for the moment and gone wandering, and no one's noticed he's missing yet.''
''Blossom's a kind soul who abhors fighting if it can ever be avoided and would prefer to talk his way around things instead, though he refuses to lie to accomplish this. If forced to fight, he generally ends it by the direct method of disarming his enemies and then walking away, though if they persist in trying to kill him he may well beat them unconscious, bandage them and then leave.''


''For the most part, Blossom is content to be a wanderer, exploring the natural places in the world and helping those he comes across. He does so without expecting payment and often without seemingly noticing that he's done anything particularly important, it's just a reflexive action on his behalf. While he's a more than capable fighter, he usually seeks to parlay before fighting, though he won't lie to get out of battle. He doesn't kill people if he can avoid it.''
''It's a wonder he's still alive, really.''


''Blossom's habit of humming to himself and talking to plants inexplicably gets on some people's nerves.''

''Blossom's dressed in a plain brown robe and carries several bags slung around his person, including one particularly large, rattling one on his back which contains a variety of hoes, rakes, small shovels and other gardening tools. He's bald, but his smooth scalp has long ago been colonized by a thick patch of ivy which sprouts pleasantly-coloured flowers in the spring and summer. He keeps it trimmed to prevent it trailing down his back. ''
 
''If divested of his robes, Blossom looks plain but pleasant, not a work of art, but clearly someone who's lived a healthy life full of physical exercise.''

It has been suggested that this page should be merged with Whispering, let's discuss at discussion page.

Basics[edit]

Name: Whispering Blossom(Blossom to his friends, which is almost everyone)
Concept: Humble Gardener
Aspect: Wood
Motivation: Aid those in need, see the world, find an amazing place to settle down and make a garden.
Intimacies: The Weak, Plants, Animals
Anima Banner/Totem:
Anima Effect/Tell:
Experience: 19/28
(write experience points as "unspent / total" plx)

Background[edit]

Blossom used to be part of a rather large family with a lot of Dragonblooded blood in its veins, if asked where it is, he'll reply that it's "somewhere out east." If pressed he'll admit that he went wandering one morning and never got around to finding his way back. Some years ago, soldiers of the Realm found him tending a surprisingly magnificent garden in the middle of a forest while chasing criminals. After he disarmed half of them with his hoe, they realized he was Dragonblooded and dragged him back to the realm where he was subsequently adopted.

Unfortunately for his adopted family, Blossom was pretty much impossible to make a part of Realm life. An absent-minded, kind-hearted wanderer, he spent most of his time in gardens and parks, tending to plants(and talking to them) or tending to those who couldn't afford to be treated anywhere. Aside from the required passing-on-of-the-blood, he participated in none of his new house's affairs and eventually they ended up forgetting about him. Since then he's managed to wander his way out of the Realm again, searching for new wonders to behold and new people to help.

Blossom's a kind soul who abhors fighting if it can ever be avoided and would prefer to talk his way around things instead, though he refuses to lie to accomplish this. If forced to fight, he generally ends it by the direct method of disarming his enemies and then walking away, though if they persist in trying to kill him he may well beat them unconscious, bandage them and then leave.

It's a wonder he's still alive, really.


Appearance[edit]

Blossom's dressed in a plain brown robe and carries several bags slung around his person, including one particularly large, rattling one on his back which contains a variety of hoes, rakes, small shovels and other gardening tools. He's bald, but his smooth scalp has long ago been colonized by a thick patch of ivy which sprouts pleasantly-coloured flowers in the spring and summer. He keeps it trimmed to prevent it trailing down his back.

If divested of his robes, Blossom looks plain but pleasant, not a work of art, but clearly someone who's lived a healthy life full of physical exercise.
