Backstory:

A reserved Moxyn originating from outside of Valorise and born during the time of the Cozyhearth Gathering (November), Molniya is a success-driven, curious xyn now living in Moonreach, the capital of Lunerest. After excommunication by his kin and the subsequent forced relocation from his previous home in the Frostouched Pines, he now spends most of his time studying arduously at a top school in the heart of the city, alone. 

Though he wouldn't care to admit the feeling to others—rather choosing to believe that he is fulfilled on his own, by his thoughts, studies and literature— he is a rather lonely xyn, continuously troubled and slightly jaded by his estranged relationship with his family and the lack of any real xyn companionship in his life. To combat possible corruption the more isolated tend to face, he grounds himself by heading out of his home and pausing his studies to socialize with other xyns in the heart of the capital (particularly during nights of larger parties, where it's easier for him to disappear into the crowd). Through doing this, he has spoken to fair few— though he has never been known intimately by another, and comes off as a very mysterious and sometimes intimidating presence when encountered. Unlike other Moxyns, he is humble and not particularly vain or self-important by any means, outside of the realm of his studies— his trouble is with the innermost parts of himself, not parts of others. Deep down, he longs to one day meet a fellow xyn he can form a strong bond he has always wished to have with, saving him from his perpetual solitude.

Aspirations: He is particularly interested in the flora, fauna and environment of Lunerest, making it a focus of his studies and hoping to, eventually, document and share any newfound discoveries of his own with future generations of xyns.
Fun Facts:

• He is both a bit bulkier and slightly taller than the average Moxyn, adding to his already intimidating demeanor many seem to note after encountering him.
• Plants and mushrooms continuously grow out of his fur.

🌊 MOX-467: Farikal
An odd and fairly annoying xyn he seems to keep running into at parties. Molniya tends to avoid speaking to him one on one if at all possible, but finds Farikal interesting to observe from afar, at the least.
