FORESTWALKER

Often called Forest for short, shi is the central character for the Forest Tales series. Hir mother is Desertsand, hir sire is Longstripe, and shi's the second of three children. Shi is a chakat of fairly typical size and proportions. Hir fur colour and pattern resemble those of a golden jaguar and hir head hair is black and usually cut a little over shoulder length. Eye colour is green. Shi also has rather large, firm and sensitive breasts. Forest stands about 5' 6" tall, but is far bigger when measured from hir head to the tip of hir prehensile tail. Although outwardly resembling a female, like all chakats shi is a true hermaphrodite. Although sexually attracted to both genders of any species, hir personal preference is for hir female side and shi loves having and caring for cubs. Shi has a personal fetish for breasts, both hir own and other people's. Forest is a very tactile person, and extremely sociable. Shi desires a large family and has several mates whom shi spends as much time with as possible. Forest and hir family live in Australia where chakats were created. Shi works for the Department of Conservation & Environment in hir capacity as an expert biologist, but has taken temporary assignments on starships to spend more time with some of hir star-faring mates. Shi enjoys the new experiences, but still prefers the Australian Outback. Hir hobbies include bushwalking and rock-climbing, the latter skill learned from hir mate, Trina. Forest has the most commonsense of all the sisters and tends to take charge in a crisis.

Sire: Desertsand
Height: 173cm

GOLDFUR

Forestwalker's older sister. Goldfur's parents are the same as Forest's, but the roles of sire and mother were reversed. Hir colouration closely resembles that of a cougar with its golden-brown fur and patterning, plus shi has waist-long, blonde hair which shi often wears in a ponytail. Eyes are green. Growing up in a near-ideal conditions, shi excelled at school in the sciences, going on to university to study electronics. At home, shi tinkered with gadgets in the workshop in the workshop whenever shi had spare time. This wasn't too often because Forestwalker frequently dragged hir away to go bushwalking with hir. The sisters grew up doing almost everything together, and when they sexually matured, neither could think of a better partner with whom to share their first sexual experience. This closeness remains to the present, and they still like to occasionally make love. After graduating from university, shi was offered a position in Star Fleet, but declined it because shi was uncomfortable with the military aspect of the Service. Instead shi applied to the Star Corps where shi could indulge hir desire to see other worlds. Shi has a full-time position as an electronics expert and is a Lead Technician on any ship to which shi is assigned. Shi has two foxtaur lifemates, the first a male named Garrek whom shi met on one of hir assignments, and his sister, Malena, whom shi met later when Garrek took hir to his home village in California. Shi has become the parent of three cubs to them so far, mother to two (Eudora Whitepaw & Tailstalker) and sire to the other (Blaze). Shi also later become denmate to a wolftaur bitch named Lupu who bore hir twins (Stonefur & Greypaw). Goldfur had a very happy and stable life until the day when hir firstborn, Eudora, was kidnapped by Ketta, a foxtaur vixen who was disgusted with the crossbreeding of a chakat with a foxtaur and threatened to kill the cub. Then later a Humans First riot resulted in the death of Greypaw. Now shi is a lot more suspicious of strangers and a little paranoid about the safety of cubs. Shi can be a little bit short tempered when under stress, but aside from that, when you gain hir sympathy, shi's extraordinarily generous with hir time and energy.

Born: 19 April 2303
Mother: Jaleth
Sire: Rikandor
Height: 175cm

GARREK

A Red Foxtaur from the Mountain Glade clan in the region of the Sequoia National Forest in California. He has the typical red fox fur patterns but with an unusually intense hue which earned him the nickname "Red". Usually wears a green sleeveless work jacket with many pockets in it. Amber eyes and no head hair, although he has a distinctive ruff of fur between his ears. Garrek was an oddity amongst his people, preferring technological studies where foxtaurs usually embrace the natural. Nevertheless, he persisted with the studies with the moral support of his best friend, Zendak, and Kassi, a vixen who was girlfriend to both tods. When Kassi ended up choosing Zendak and leaving with him for a career that took them away from the village for much of the time, Garrek was left vulnerable to the machinations of a selfish vixen, Ketta, which left him emotional scarred. As much to get away from her as to pursue a career, he left the foxtaur village to study at the Star Corps Academy, and after graduating, became an engineer on a Corps starship. On only his second deep-space mission, he met Goldfur. Rather shy and self-effacing at first, he gradually opened up to Goldfur and started socialising a lot more again. However, he had never met a chakat before and did not realise that they are hermaphrodites, so when he learned by accident, it came as a great shock to him because, without realising it, he had fallen in love with hir. But because his love was so strong, he overcame his feelings of confusion and declared his love and found that the feelings were reciprocated. They became mates immediately, and it wasn't long before they conceived a child. Garrek is proving to be a very good father, and loves Goldfur and his children more than anything else in the world. Upon undergoing "Obligation" though, he finds himself the centre of attention for several foxtaur vixens, and sires several kits by them. He also has a talent for flute playing.

Hir love of feeding and caring for cubs has blossomed into a career goal of becoming a Midwife, and shi has started tertiary studies towards that goal.

MALENA

Garrek's younger sister. Opposite to her brother in many ways, this foxtaur vixen is a vivacious and confident young lady with typical red fox markings but with an unusually pale hue. She fell in love with Goldfur during hir many visits and eventually became hir second mate, qickly falling pregnant to hir and giving birth to Blaze.

KATRINA SNOWFOX

Almost always just called Trina, she is an arctic fox morph, plantigrade and possessing fur that changes from pure white in Winter to shades of light brown and white in Summer. She is one of Forest's Lifemates and has taught hir many new skills from her interests in bushwalking and rock-climbing. However, her most legendary ability is sexual endurance!

After a long time of trying, Trina finally conceived by Kris and bore them a son named Markus. She has a brother named Mikael who hasn't been in any story yet.

Like her wolven kin, she keenly felt her place within the social order but nevertheless asked Goldfur to sire cubs with her. She gave birth to twins, Greypaw and Stonefur, chakat cubs with wolflike fur colouring. Later she meets Goldendale, mistaking hir for Goldfur, and falls in love with hir. They become mates and Lupu is now pregnant to hir.

Forestwalker later gives him a cub, Windrunner, whom they both wanted.

Species: Foxtaur (Red)
Gender: Female

KETTA

Foxtaur vixen of Garrek's clan. She saw Goldfur in particular, and chakats in general, as a threat to the status quo and had extremely bigoted views of all other species. A major turnabout came in her life when, after being banished from the clan, she meets another chakat whom she intends to exploit for her own selfish purposes, but ends up falling in love with instead. She gives birth to their child, Nikol.

JINNI

A hunter, part of a team of four vixens. Her team-mates and den partners are Karree, Willa and Marith. She seeks out Garrek during his Obligation when she feels she's ready to have a child. Jinni has blonde hair which is unusual for vixens in her clan.



Species: Foxtaur (Red x Golden)
Gender: Female

KASSI

Garrek's girlfriend of his later teenage years. He competed with his closest friend, Zendak, for her favour. She chose Zendak eventually, but only because she wasn't allowed by clan law to have both tods to herself, and because Garrek wasn't ready to have kits yet whereas Zendak was. After being parted for many years, she meets Garrek again while he is on Obligation. She has been unable to conceive, and Zendak suggests that Garrek should try to give her the child she craves. He succeeds, and the couple asks him to join them as their co-mate because the ban no longer applied because Garrek now has other mates. Kassi has unusually large and shapely breasts, appealing greatly to Garrek's tastes.



Species: Foxtaur (Red)
Gender: Male

ZENDAK

Zendak is Garrek's longest friend. They met as kits and grew up together. They were virtually inseperable companions and even shared the same girlfriend, Kassi, as older teenagers. Zendak took a career though that enabled him to stay with Kassi and commit to having a family, so won her as his mate. When years of trying failed to get Kassi pregnant, he was the first to suggest that Garrek would make an ideal potential sire. Zendak honestly loves his friend so much that he would do anything for Garrek, including sharing his mate.

Species: Foxtaur (Red)
Gender: Female

SHANSU

Formerly a hunter vixen, Shansu was badly burned in a forest fire. The permanent injuries which resulted mean that she can no longer hunt and is now the village librarian. Her confidence and self-image were badly harmed as well, but Garrek does much to heal her psychological wounds and give her back her joy in life. Shansu's missing fur is slowly being repaired through cosmetic surgery, but the cost means that it's only being done slowly.

Species: Foxtaur (Red)
Gender: Female

THAYLA

Thayla is the elder responsible for overseeing Shansu's recovery. Her concerns were alleviated when Garrek helped rebuild her confidence. She goes to thank him and ends up helping him with his own dilemma. Garrek offers to spend a night with the lonely widowed vixen and, to their mutual surprise, they find themselves quite compatible. Thayla asks Garrek to return to her den sometime, which he does, later asking her to become part of his family. Thayla's most outstanding physical feature is the lack of the usual "sock" on her right foreleg.

MERTA

Merta is a vulpamour, the foxtaur term for same-sex lovers (in other words, a lesbian). Her mate is Voshu, and together they come to Garrek during his Obligation because Merta desires a child, and naturally Voshu cannot give her one.

M'LAI SAARATH

Doctor M'Lai Saarath is currently assigned as the Assistant Chief Medical Officer of the Federation starship Pegasus. It was quickly apparent that she was not a normal Caitian due to her extraordinary height and prodigious bust. In fact she was the victim of a childhood disease which caused excessive growth in most parts of her body. One of the effects of that disease has caused her ongoing problem - she is a nymphomaniac. This has caused a series of incidents which has kept her moving from assignment to assignment until she finally finds her place amongst the people of the Pegasus. M'Lai is a xenophile and is attracted to males of many species, not to mention the hermaphroditic chakats!

RANTHE NARBALEK

Fox-like female shipmate for Mayfurr. Co-pilot and technician for the Fiora's Fury. She and May have a close but sometimes strained relationship. For her full bio, see this webpage.

KEITH WALKER & DAWNFIRE

Captain Keith Walker is the commander of the science vessel FSS Isaac Asimov, and Chakat Commander Dawnfire is his second-in-command. They met each other for the first time while cadets at the Academy at Cape York, Australia, and have maintained a close, if physically separated, relationship. In 2326, Mayfurr and Ranthe (along with Sundown) encounter the Asimov when attempting to escape capture on Chakona, and after some negotiations, Captain Walker agrees to take the two vulpines back to their homeworld, initiating First Contact for the Stellar Federation. Later, after their return from that mission, Keith, Dawnfire, and the Asimov are involved in the first encounter with the Stariionae, with disastrous results.

DARKSTAR

Lynx patterned Chakat. Hir parents, Longstride and Penta, were original settlers on Chakona; they obtained a development grant in the mountains west of Berdoovia and built a homestead there. Darkstar is the oldest of three siblings, with Schwartzchild (one year younger) and Corona (three years younger) being the others. When Darkstar was eleven, Corona was killed by a scimitar cat during a family camp-out on Nova Belarus. Upon reaching their majority Darkstar and Schwartzchild left home and joined Starfleet. After five years Schwartzchild dropped out and returned home bringing a Chakat mate named Joly. Schwartzchild and Joly produced four children: Rowan, Spruce, Pine, and Willow. Darkstar, meanwhile, remained in Starfleet and unattached - except for a fling with a Chakat named Iris. Iris broke off the relationship and dropped out of Starfleet without telling Darkstar that shi was pregnant with Darkstar's child. In time, Darkstar achieved the rank of Lieutenant Commander and was appointed executive officer of the F.S.S. Illustrious. Longstride and Penta took the entire family to Voxxa to celebrate; unfortunately the liner on which they travelled - the Quezon City - struck a warp rift and suffered a catastrophic failure of its warp reactor. Darkstar's entire family died instantly when drive plasma vented through their suite. Worse yet Illustrious, being the closest vessel, was sent to the rescue. Darkstar learned about the death of hir family while leading a team searching for survivors. Captain Ch'ibali promptly relieved hir of duty and sent hir to Chakona for psychological counseling. Shi took care of the family's outstanding affairs and appointed a family friend - Chakat Brightsong - to oversee things, then requested to resume active duty. Shi left Chakona without attending the funeral Brightsong had arranged. From then on shi served with distinction, eventually replacing Captain Ch'ibali when he retired. Hir promotion to flag rank was stalled by allegations that, shortly after the Quezon City accident, shi'd deliberately executed prisoners. Shi accepted retirement rather than face an inquiry into the matter. Shi returned to Chakona, visited hir family's graves, and resolved to kill hirself. Shi rented a cottage on the coast, just north of Berdoovia, and set about implementing hir plans. Meanwhile, Fyodor Moseivitch, Chair of Xeno-Sciences at Dewclaw University, had heard that Captain Darkstar, a famous and much decorated Starfleet officer, had retired to Chakona. He resolved to recruit hir, in the hopes of boosting his department's prestige. He reached hir just as shi'd finished hir preparations and was about to kill hirself. Shi listened politely to his pitch then explained that shi couldn't accept, since shi was about to die. When shi explained why, Fyodor worked desperately to talk hir down, and managed to keep hir on the phone for several hours. In the end shi cracked; Fyodor drove straight out to hir cottage and spent several days with hir. In the end shi accepted his offer and became an expert consultant to the College of Xeno-Sciences. On the way into town one day, shi met someone who recognized her: none other than Iris. From Iris Darkstar heard about hir daughter, whom had been named Marla. But Marla did not turn out as Iris had hoped; where most chakat children were gentle, friendly, and social, Marla was surly, violent, and aggressive. Shi fought with hir classmates, argued with hir parents, and engaged in a broad range of anti-social and self-destructive behaviors. Finally, feeling that they had no choice, Iris and hir new mate Buttercup sent Marla to a home for troubled youth. Marla was the only chakat there. Marla graduated - eventually - and upon hir return home beat hir parents nearly to death with a length of pipe. Iris recovered but Buttercup remained permanently impaired. After that, Marla vanished without a trace. Darkstar then launched a campaign to locate hir missing daughter, using contacts shi'd established in Starfleet and the University. In the process shi discovered that hir father, Penta, had been a Chakamil: a variant of the chakat with enhanced physical qualities and aggression, meant to be a race of super-soldiers. The Chakamils had been made in secret to meet the threat posed by other war beasts left over from the Gene Wars, but before they could be deployed, the Three Firms Scandal broke. Starfleet decided that the political climate wasn't right and quietly terminated the project - which included executing all the Chakamils who'd been created. A few escaped, and they looked enough like normal chakats to mix with the general population; the only outwardly visible distinguishing factor was that Chakamils all resembles short tailed cats: lynxes, bobcats, and caracals. Darkstar appreciated at once that Marla's Chakamil blood had no doubt contributed to hir behavior; Darkstar's own early life had been very similar. Penta understood how to deal with it, though, and Darkstar became a reasonably well adjusted adult. Isis and Buttercup hadn't, and Marla suffered for it. Eventually, by following a trail of arrest reports, convictions, and outstanding warrants, Darkstar tracked Marla to a remote colonial outpost in the Voxxan sector. Sadly Marla died the day before Darkstar arrived, by taking a space walk while stoned and getting crushed to death by a new module being attached to the space station. Shi left behind a daughter named Aurora, whom shi'd treated very badly, and was little more than feral when Darkstar found hir. Darkstar eventually won custody of Aurora through a mix of legal maneuvering, blackmail, and bribery. Shi took Aurora back to Chakona, where the two of them now live in the family homestead.

AURORA

Cougar-patterned chakat. Shi is the Darkstar's granddaughter, child of Marla and an unknown father. Marla was a very poor parent, beating Aurora capriciously and often failing to feed or clean hir. Marla also left recreational drugs where Aurora could reach them, and once Aurora almost died from an overdose. Despite this terrible beginning shi is, in fact, extremely intelligent and quite social; once Darkstar had reversed much of the psychological damage Marla had done and broken through Aurora's armor of reserve, shi became quite open and friendly, getting along fairly well with other children hir age. But scars of the past remain; Aurora is extremely distrustful of people who want to "help" hir or do things to hir "for hir own good". For some years it was not possible for Darkstar to take Aurora to a doctor; the doctor would have to come to Darkstar's house and Aurora would submit to examination and treatment only so long as Darkstar remained in physical contact with hir at all times. Also, Aurora has something of a violent nature, inherited from hir mother and Darkstar. This has caused no end to trouble, as normal play can quickly degenerate into a serious affray. Darkstar deals with the problem by imposing some rather Draconian disciplinary measures, but balances severity with fairness: the terms and conditions of punishment are clearly defined and Darkstar cleaves to hir standards with all the resolve and discipline hir years with Starfleet have given hir. Aurora may not like the punishment but shi's come to learn that Darkstar will never administer or withhold it capriciously. This has led to an extremely tight bond between Aurora and Darkstar, but also to the fact that Aurora hasn't much respect for the laws and standards of society at large, which shi regards as thoughtlessly created and lazily enforced. Shi gets along better with people who are older than hir, and delights in physical play of all kinds.

LONGSTOCKING

Generic feline chakat. Lieutenant, Chakonan Security Forces (engineering specialist), retired. The middle of eight siblings (four from each parent), all of whom are strongly artistic: there are painters, poets, writers, and sculptors in hir immediate family. Longstocking, however, is at heart an engineer; machines are hir first and truest love. Needless to say this has led to a certain amount of estrangement with hir family, though there is no malice in it. They simply don't understand hir and shi doesn't understand them. Shi joined the Chakona Defense Force as a way to pay for college, and shi stayed after graduation because work was readily available. Shi isn't the most brilliant of engineers but shi does bring an artistic flair to hir work that seems almost magical: shi can solve problems that stump the geniuses. Shi lacks ambition, though, and ended up commander of Small Craft Repair Station Sigma one-seven more or less by default. Shi sticks with the military life because it imposes a structure on hir life without the need for hir to pay too much attention to it hirself. That's why, at 39 years of age, shi's still only a Lieutenant. The arrival of Professor Moseivitch and his mysterious alien artifact shocked Longstocking out of hir comfortable groove; suddenly shi finds hirself embroiled in intrigue and controversy. Shi also meets Darkstar, who takes command of hir surroundings as naturally as breathing. Longstocking sees in Darkstar a reflection of what shi hirself might have become... and the aura of loneliness around Darkstar awakens a sympathetic twinge in Longstocking's psyche. The deciding factor, though, is how Darkstar insists on helping everyone around hir, even when it would be safer and easier not to. Longstocking cannot endure that someone so full of compassion should receive none hirself. Gradually, without at first noticing, Longstocking falls in love with Darkstar. Then Longstocking has to watch hir best friend die and only Darkstar has the necessary experience to offer appropriate comfort. Longstocking decides to chuck hir coasting life and become Darkstar's full-time mate.

SNOWFLAKE

Snow leopard patterned chakat. Daughter of Starlight and Winterfrost, the chakat equivalent of yuppies. Winterfrost is a doctor, specializing in obstetrics, and Starlight a customer services manager for a telecommunications company. Starlight and Winterfrost are single children and so is Snowflake. They lavish all their money and attention upon Snowflake... but they also both work 60 hours a week. Snowflake has been raised mainly by a nanny and has grown up feeling that shi's bouncing along through the gaps in her parents' work schedules. It doesn't help that shi seems to utterly lack the fierce drive that impels hir parents forward. Shi has no interest in medicine or business and is an indifferent student. Only determined tutoring by hir parents kept hir in school. When the time for college, came up Snowflake eventually chose Astronautics as hir major, on the offhand thought that shi might like to be a pilot. To hir surprise shi found that shi enjoyed it more than shi expected, and finally began to show something of hir parents' verve. But the failure to establish good study habits betrayed hir; in the cockpit or simulator shi could fly like a bird but shi struggled with the classroom work. When the threat of academic suspension loomed its ugly head, Starlight and Winterfrost visited Dewclaw University to plead Snowflake's case. The net result of their visit was that Professor Moseivitch agreed to take Snowflake under his wing in return for a generous donation to the college. Snowflake did do better, because the professor let hir take more time in completing hir academic requirements and he engaged in some personal tutoring as well. Snowflake found the professor's quirky nature endearing. When shi got her pilot's license the professor hired hir as his personal pilot.

FYODOR IVANOV MOSEIVITCH

Terran of Slavic extraction. Fyodor comes from an old military family that can trace its roots all the way back to the early twentieth century. He was born in Siberia, on Terra, but originally the family lived near St. Petersburg. During or slightly after the Gene Wars, one of his ancestors had genetic surgery done on himself, and ever since males have cropped up every now and then with characteristic short stature, rotund build, and outrageous hair. Fyodor joined Starfleet as soon as he could but his ability did not quite match his ambitions. He did well enough in the Academy but was never more than an average student. On graduation he entered the Security division, traditional dumping ground for mediocre officers. He moved from one mind-numbing assignment to another for some years, then re-upped in the hopes of attaining some - any - measure of success he could take home to his family. One day, quite by accident, his security team found a group of Sauron - war beasts from the Gene wars, outwardly identical to Terrans - trying to steal a shuttle craft. Fyodor radioed for orders and was told by his commander to shoot the thieves without warning. Fyodor instead attempted to arrest them, which resulted in himself and three of his team mates getting shot and the thieves escaping, though without the shuttle. For this debacle Fyodor found himself convicted by a Court of Inquiry and dishonorably discharged. He couldn't face his family with a record like that, so he signed on with a colonization company. His experience got him a decent share, and while it was back-breaking work, for the first time in his life Fyodor really felt as if he were actually building something on his own, rather than following someone else's footsteps. He also discovered a knack for getting things done; he could persuade unruly colonists to get along, pry goods out of unwilling disbursement agents, attract the attention of higher-ups when it was wanted and avoid it when it wasn't. He rose to become the colony's Deputy Director, the fixer who got done what the administrators decided was necessary. He also met Ludmilla, who found his wit and devious nature endearing. Not to mention that she saw him destined for great things. They married and conceived a child. Then some mysterious strangers landed to repair their ship. Shortly thereafter a terrible plague crippled the colony; the strangers were Sauron, and they'd infected the colony with sickness. Fyodor ended up having to go for help; he was the only healthy person left who could pilot a star ship. He made it to a Starfleet patrol base but was quarantined for a couple weeks to make sure he wasn't infected. A Starfleet response team set out at once but by the time it arrived plague had wiped out the entire colony. Fyodor and two companions who'd gone with him were the only survivors. He brought Ludmilla back to Terra and buried her on the steppes, near his ancestral home. He told his family everything; they offered to let him stay but he refused. He emigrated to Chakona and sought work. He got a job at Dewclaw University as a security guard; almost at once he saw that his talent for wheeling and dealing would serve him perfectly in this place. In three years he'd managed to talk himself into an academic appointment, as an Associate of Xeno-Sciences. From there he rose like the rockets of old, attaining the august position of Chair after only seven short years. In which time no one could ever precisely say what his qualifications were.

THEOBALD AARON "KIT" CARSON

Terran of northern European extraction. Theobald, known as Kit to all his friends, was born on a Voxxan colony world. He and his parents, Michaeln and Juliana, were the only Terrans in their town. Kit grew up speaking Voxxan like a native and Standard with some difficulty; as a child, he made a fox tail out of fake fur and attached it to his pants. His childhood was difficult, being always the odd man out. In his teen years things got worse; he found himself attracted to Voxxan females but they did not, as a rule, return his interest. Still, he was extremely intelligent and inquisitive, always taking things apart to see how they worked (and occasionally putting them back together). Early on he developed a love of space ships, from consuming vast quantities of science fiction on whatever form he could. So perhaps it was inevitable that he should choose to study starship engineering. He did well in school; because it brought him closer to his dream and because it provided an outlet for his frustrated social energies. He did well enough to earn a scholarship to Starfleet Academy... but he turned it down when his mother told him that she was half Sauron. Starfleet security teams had executed his maternal grandmother - a full blood Sauron - and her husband - a regular Terran - had killed himself so that the security teams wouldn't find his daughter, Kit's mother. Kit applied for other scholarships and was granted one by Dewclaw University; he left home and went to Chakona. There he met Valjean and Javert Hugo, a pair of Foxtaur brothers. Kit found himself drawn to them, not only for being vulpine but also when he learned that they'd been raised by a Terran parent, away from other Foxtaurs. In the Hugos, Kit found the social acceptance he craved and Kit's academic ability kept the brothers in school when otherwise they might have flunked out. The relationship may not seem like much but loyalty runs very strong in both directions.

Valjean – Student of Robotics, Dewclaw University (Hardware)

Javert – Student of Robotics, Dewclaw University (Heuristic Programming)

VALJEAN HUGO & JAVERT HUGO

Red Foxtaurs. Adopted children of one Victor Hugo, who named his sons Valjean and Javert, as a play on his own name. Victor is curator of the Dixville Noch Collection, a vault full of pop culture artifacts from the 20th & 21st centuries, squirreled away before (and during) the Gene Wars. Heavy exposure to this material during their formative years lead to the brothers developing a disconcerting habit: unexpectedly spouting off tag lines from 250 year old sitcoms and movies no one else has ever heard of. Furthermore, Victor had a very freeform idea about child-rearing. He lived in what amounted to a commune, along with other academicians studying and caring for the collection. At first he kept the brothers in a cardboard box, as if they were puppies, and toilet trained them with a rolled up newspaper. He took them for walks on leashes and invited them to chase balls and sticks he'd throw. He fed them puppy chow, invited them to sit on his lap, and let them sleep at the foot of his bed. Only once they'd grown some did he teach them to sit at the table and eat with utensils. He made it a game: if the boys wanted "people food" they had to eat like people. If they refused he gave them dog food, occasionally mixed with "table scraps". Which wasn't to say he ignored their developing minds; he read to them - mostly books from the collection - and encouraged them to read on their own. He obtained educational software and invited the boys to play it with him. Other members of the commune helped out as well, instructing the boys in other areas. In time Victor decided that Valjean and Javert needed social stimulation; he arranged for them to attend school at a nearby town. That first attempt ended badly; the boys didn't have the discipline for a traditional school environment. After three tries, Victor found a school willing to make some accommodations. When the boys began tutoring other students, Victor invited reps from the other schools so he could gloat. Still, boys are boys: they wanted to run, jump, climb, and fight; they rolled in mud puddles, caught bugs, and indulged in crude bodily humor. Years passed, thing went reasonably well, and then puberty hit. Almost overnight the scrawny little boys became big, muscular young men... and developed a keen interest in the opposite sex. Here again problems cropped up because they were attracted to the Terran girls with whom they'd grown up. They tore through the local female population like a whirlwind, with inevitable consequences given the small, tightly knit community. When their trail of destruction began to involve wives and mothers as well as daughters and girlfriends Victor decided that it might be best to send them away for college. Through his academic contacts Victor managed to secure a collection of grants, loans, and scholarships which, when combined with some money he'd laid back, was enough to send the brothers to Dewclaw University on Chakona. There they pursued their lifelong dream: wall-to-wall partying and robotics. Unfortunately the first goal conflicted with the second and they would have been suspended on several occasions had not Kit helped them through the rough spots.
