Lad #1390
Bio
Lad is an easygoing esk that spends his days lazing around on his beach, somewhere on a small island in the South China Sea. He enjoys the company of others and is eager to tell stories, sing songs or simply hold a friendly conversation with anyone. When he isn't relaxing on his own beach he's exploring the limits of his boundary and beyond. However, sometimes when he wanders too far from home he takes a very, very long time trying to return. His sense of direction isn't that great. Lad loves cloudgazing, birdwatching and stargazing, most of his time is spent observing the world around him.
Appearance
Lad is a smooth and round esk about 15 feet tall. On his head is an elaborate crown made of crystals, shells and other trinkets that he's manifested over the years. He's very proud of his collection. He can be found being followed by nine little birds and a small school of flying fish, each with a little treasure floating above them that matches something from his crown.
Origin
Long ago, Lad used to be a tiny stilt chick. One day when he and his family went out to forage for food, he got separated from the group and started to wander around. By the time night came, he was lost, scared, hungry and very easy prey, and that's when he was transformed. His past and his transformation aren't subjects of worry to him, but he does wonder if he was missing out on being a bird.
Permissions
Lad has transformed a solid handful of esk. He can be used as a creator, provided that the recipient esk has some kind of glowing feature, which is something that all his creations share.

Garden's notes: Lad was my very first esk! His name was a placeholder that I ended up getting attached to. I used to call him "this lad" "the lad" but eventually it just stuck, so how he's Lad!
