CORE: Survival

Prompt 1 - In the Wild

Your Kai is no longer a tiny hatchling, and it is now time for them to survive by themselves. Of course some will have their back covered by their pack, but they can’t just lay around and wait for their packmates to solve all the problems.

Depict your Kai travelling around the land (or the sea). Are they trotting around without fear, like a reckless youngster? Are they being more cautious, or did they already find danger and are hiding from the threat?  

 Prompt 2 - Storms and Thunders

Your Kai was travelling around the continent where they were born, but they soon felt something shift in the air.

The scent of a violent downpour, a blizzard or maybe even a sandstorm reaches their nostrils. What will they do?

Depict what your Kai will do.

Will they recklessly keep going, fighting against the bad weather? Or perhaps they will stop, looking for shelter? Maybe they are looking for a lost friend, and they can’t stop even if a blizzard tries to freeze their body… 

Prompt 3 - The Rites

Some Kai packs have traditional rites to celebrate hatchlings growing up. Some are speed races on difficult terrains, others ask the participants to carry something with them without damaging it.

Depict your Kai participating in one of those traditional rites.

Are they getting ready for a mock-fight in a ring, painting some colorful war paints on themselves? Are they running into a forest, trying to win the first place? Anything can be a rite of passage, from bringing offerings to a deity to fighting in the mud to get a polished piece of wood with weird carvings on it. 

Prompt 1 - The Provider

When in a pack, or even a small family, all the Kai know that they will need to share something with the others, from food to a shoulder to cry on.

What does your Kai do inside a pack or a family? Are they the ones that bring the food on the table, or do they help ease the worry of the others?

Depict your Kai doing one of these things:

- Cooking or bringing some food home

- Comforting or Cheering up others
- Working hard to gain some money 

Prompt 2 - The Hunter

Your Kai has received a request: hunt down a large beast! Will it be for food or because the creature is too dangerous for the civilians living nearby?

Depict your Kai fighting against a large animal from the prey list. 

Prompt 3 - Cleanup Squad

After some harsh storms (or blizzards, or sandstorms), there is always to clean up the mess of mud, sand or snow.

Sometimes, even large trees are knocked down, or debris gets stuck in the rivers.

Depict your Kai helping the civilians to clean up the cities or the nearby rivers and roads. They could be pulling carts loaded with wood or stones, digging the mud away from the rivers or perhaps finding some lost cattle in the mess. 

Prompt 1 - The Guardian

Your Kai was travelling with someone (a packmate? Family? Or just a friend?) when an enemy appeared on their path, fangs, or blades, ready to strike.

Depict your Kai protecting the one they are travelling with: will they shield them with their body, pick them up and run, or fight with all they got?

(The enemy can be a Kai, a Monster or a Humanoid). 

 Prompt 2 - The Healer

Your Kai stumbles upon an injured being (can be a Kai, a Humanoid or an animal). Is your Kai an experienced Healer or maybe just an unlucky Kai in the wrong place at the right moment?

Whatever it is, it’s time to help out the injured.

Depict your Kai bandaging the wound or using Arcane Energy to help the being heal. 

Prompt 3 - A True Fighter

There is nowhere to run, and an enemy is closing in.

Your Kai must fight to defend their life, to survive once more.

Depict your Kai fighting against an enemy (the enemy can be a Kai, a monster, a familiar or a humanoid).

Are they fighting in a forest, after a simple walk gone wrong? Or were they thrown into an illegal fighting arena, where they must take a life to keep theirs?
