Druins (part 1)

Hey! I'm going to start an online story starter that I'm totally making up. (it will probably suck so don't be to hard on me) I'm good at writing begginings of stories, but I suck at writing full-length stories.Here it goes:

From the outside Bekki would look like any other ordinary, 13 year old girl. She had long, curly, dirty blond hair, with hazel eyes the same color as that perfect walnut that falls off the tree at the end of fall. She was pretty scrawny for a girl her age, and about 5'1 in height. She wore earthy tones all the time, and loved to wear skirts that came just above the knee. But, Bekki was not a normal girl. Nor was she a human. She was a Druin. Druins were part fairy, part giant, and part dwarf. Unlike the fairies, giants, and dwarfes they were forgotten since there were so few of them. They were all female, and between 5'3 and 5'6 when they're fully grown. They all had magic too. Which was to be expected from a creature that came from fairies. From dwarfes they got there human-like apperances, and smartness, from giants there height, and kindness, and fairies magic, and spunk. All Druins had healing tears as a child. It was simple, and practical. When a child is hurt, he cries which makes tears. The tears will hit the spot where you are hurt, and if the tears are healing the problem if fixed. As they age the Druins will develop a power of there own. The choice of the power is based on the childs personality, and family history. When there specilized powers are developed completely the healing tears go away. The switching of powers goes slowly over 5 years starting when the Druin is 13. Since Bekki was 13 she was starting to develop her powers, but what it was wasn't evident yet. She knew it was happening though since she was becoming more tired, more often which was a normal thing for Druins of her age. Her mother was a Druin too, and her father carried the Druin trait. Baby Druins are only born when there mother is a Druin, her father's mother was a Druin, and her father's father carried the Druin trait. A Druin pair could only have 1 druin, and 1 Druin trait carrier as well. As you can imagine Drins were very rare. Most Druins married humans, and stopped thier family line, much to there parents despise. The others had a Druin child, and got to watch them grow up andhopefully have Druin children of there own.


Peace, Kelsey
