Grisha (Гриша) & Vikentiy (Викентий)

Russians near and far have heard of the tale of the Misha Rurik. It starts as a child's tale but never leaves the mind's of the child as they grow into adults. Even Elders tell the tale with such belief that you, also, might find yourself believing. Records of the Misha Rurik date back hundreds of years, and stories have been told for just as long, if not longer. However, no proof is actually in existence of the Misha Rurik.

Some stories of the Misha Rurik tell of it being an unforgiving, devilish soul. It is said that anyone who comes to meet the Misha Rurik, will die. Other stories tell of it being a just soul; bringing justification to those who cross it's path. It is said that the Misha Rurik is a protector of the wildlife around it, and nature in general. Another version tells of the Misha Rurik only protecting those with Russian blood.

In all stories it is known that Grisha is a gentle, soft soul and Vikentiy is the aggressive, dominate soul that controls them. However, some stories vary with Grisha being more aggressive than passive.

The Misha Rurik is known for it's deadly quills on its rear. They can be contracted back and forth at will. And if stung by these quills, your body is stunned to a point of being unable to fight off the Misha Rurik before it kills you. And if the Misha Rurik does not kill you, approximately three hours after being injected, the poison will kill you. The Misha Rurik, however, only uses its quills in a life or death situation, usually against fighting wolves or larger prey. The Misha Rurik uses its sharp front claws and teeth against predictors and prey by slashing away at it quickly and efficiently.

Grisha is the quiet, gentle soul of the two. He is firm in his decisions when he needs to be, but otherwise he just likes to sit by and watch the world turn. He is not aggressive, but he is very defensive. Vikentiy is where the Misha Rurik's aggressive nature comes from. It is so strong, that it influence's Grisha's sweet nature and trick's his protective behaviour. Although he does not go searching for things to be aggressive towards, if put in the presence of anyone he is likely to attack. He is considered the dominate head.
