Yuri

Yuri is a male nevrean born in the South, near Gold Ring. His colors are a dull shade of gray-ish purples and blues and he has no wings.

Early Life
Yuri was born in a small village close to Gold Ring and raised in a public daycare. He didn't spent much time with his parents, since they were always busy with work and had no time to spare with their kid. So he was more familiar with the people who took care of him in the daycare and the other kids who lived there. It wasn't one of the best places in town, but he had a good childhood, overall. He was a common nevrean child, all cheerful and talkative, making friends with anyone who spent some time with him.

The village was small, it didn't have many nevreans living on it and his parents were born in the South, with no knowledge of the nevrean traditions that were kept in Nevrea and passed down from one generation to another. They only knew the basics, like males being winged, smaller, lighter and bright-colored, while females were always bigger, heavier and dull colored, with no wings. His mother still remembered the day when she lost her wing, meaning she reached adulthood. So when he was growing up and his feathers were changing from the childish gray to a darker color, his parents (as well as the caretakers) thought it meant he was a girl. But time passed, all his childish feathers fell and the wings remained. No one was aware of what the traditional nevreans considered as "irregular males", but someone mentioned that sometimes female nevreans don't lose their wings at the same age they change their feathers and that it was customary to cut them off, since they wouldn't be able to fly anyway.

And it was like that, full of good intentions, that his parents chopped his wings off, believing he was a female nevrean instead of a male. And his mood was never the same again, losing with his wings his cheerfulness and joy for life.

Gold Ring
Not much time passed after that horrible incident, Yuri decided to leave his hometown and live in Gold Ring, hoping life would be better and people would be less ignorant on the big city.
