About Us
About Mort's Owner:
Hey, I'm known on the internet as Midnight Tails, or Talia, and I own Mort, bunch of the kids so far, and a lot of other kias. I've been watching kias from pretty much the start, but never really interacted at all due to my social anxiety until a bit before they moved to DA, but felt competitions were too overwhelming to really compete. First kia I got was in 2015 I believe, and gradually increased the amount as time has gone on. Kiamaras for me are really important, as firstly, I've met some amazing friends and people through the community, improved on my anxiety, and they've also been a vital component for me in dealing with my depression and ptsd, especially the ptsd, often using aspects of it in stories of my kias to help me work through things. Although I'm worried this is a little too personal to be saying haha...
Mort isn't my oldest kia or anything like that, but he's definitely one of the most developed backstory wise and he's just incredibly fun to create stories for. Also Zoupp is honestly the most fun person to develop a ship with! Helps that I've found a best friend in them too, hoping to stay life long friends honestly!
We actually started shipping with two totally different kias haha (still ship them too), and had been doing that for a while, until we pretty much out of the blue were just like "azura sounds like she'd help mort be less of an asshole because of how pure she is" and it just went from there, so much headcannoning and world building...we've honestly got a loose plan for 300+ years into the future haha it's great ;u;
This ship means a lot to me because I love sappy dramatic tragic love stories, plus like I mentioned above, there are parts of Mort's character and backstory that I use to help me work through my own traumas and honestly some fears too, namely my fear of death is definitely a feature in regards to Mort's life, and yeah Mort gives me courage to face the day and try my best. And I just love the focus that the two have on trying to be really good parents and to take care of their family, because I never had that, so it makes me feel really good to be a part of something so wholesome I suppose!
Plus I get to have fun all the time with a best friend of mine, and we understand each other so well it's great <3
I love world building, plot twists, character development, anime, painting, gaming, photography, reading, and wayy too many other hobbies to list! No idea how many kias I own atm, I just know its a lot definitely 34+ not including myo slots.

About Azura's Owner:
Hi my name’s Zoupp and I’m the proud owner of Azura and some of her family. I got into Kiamaras around three years ago when they had already migrated to Deviantart. I knew about Kia’s already from Chickensmoothie, however, I had never managed to actually win one. I consider Azura to be my first real Kia. I had made impulse purchases before her, but all in all, she was the one meant to be. She is, currently, my oldest owned Kia and my most beloved with an extensive backstory and a growing family. Azura’s backstory of being a lost princess is a story concept that I adored and used for her from the beginning. Her being raised by her grandfather was alluding to the fact that in reality, I had been raised by my own grandparents. Azura’s entire backstory of going off on her own and creating a life of her own, including her whole childish personality was the way I was, and still very much am today. And Azura creating a happy family with loving children...honestly….Is what I want for my own future. I’ve always adored children so that tidbit latched onto her character. The tragedy in her story, is all only because I personally love giving depth and pain to some stories. Even if it tortures the characters, a little bit of drama makes for a more interesting story...at least in my own opinion.
This ship has really helped me open up more in the community. In the beginning, before we started shipped Mort and Azura together, she was shipped with a different kia and I could never progress her story very well if at all. I love world building and it was very hard to me to open up to the community and give her depth as a character. After we divorced her and her ex (due to, the owner not being able to be active), I was able to give her the backstory and love she could never have gotten before. At the time, me and Talia were already shipping two other kias together and me wanting to include Azura, added her in as Mal’s sister. Adding her into the universe we created was the best thing I could have ever done. We became closer as best friends and I started to open up and finally last summer, we started shipping her with Mort. From there, the universe exploded with possibilities and I started including her daughters (from the previous mateship) and we started to expand the universe even further with the children, and the ancestors…
And even other Kias !!!
Its the most awesome thing to come online and world build with someone you’ve grown close to, and as someone who suffers from depression and social anxiety, this ship has helped me branch out in more ways than I could ever imagine possible.
I really enjoy character creation, Kias in general, drawing and of course, have some side hobbies including watching cartoons and playing video games.
I currently own 21 kiamaras, all of them dearly loved.

Personalities
Mort-
In his story, his power is one of destruction; it acts somewhat like time acceleration, but mostly acts like a life sucking ability or a disintegration ability. Very tied to his negative emotions, the more upset he is, the less control he has, but the more powerful it is. When truly upset turns into less of a touch thing, and more of an constant aoe, expanding in distance covered depending on how upset he is. This is important to mention because his power has very much shaped his being, and who he is. Without knowledge of his power, he is difficult to understand. As a result of both his power, and what his childhood ended up being, he is terribly afraid of himself, particularly afraid of what he can potentially do especially to those he cares about. Despite this a part of him still relishes killing and torturing, and pines for the old days where he was one of the most ruthless of Tristan's pirate raiding crew. He is still struggling to deal with his trauma from childhood, but tries his best to keep his problems just that, his. He's remarked as a solid, reliable, stoic protector, especially of peace. Those around him typically end up trusting him with their lives, he is just the kind of guy that elicits you to want to put faith in him. He tries his best to live up to those expectations, but has heavy self loathing that causes him to doubt himself most days. Throughout most of his life, he came across as cocky and confident, always with a sly smile on his face and a ready laugh. Partly this is due to him being confident in his ability to kill everyone within sight if he so chose, and he used to enjoy the power that gave him. Nowadays he carries a true confidence, despite his self loathing, he holds himself well, and has excellent control of himself, and has an uncanny knack for having others listen to what he says. He's still somewhat of a bastard with his sense of humour, messing around with those he likes, teasing them frequently, but its always lighthearted fun. These days he focuses on trying to repent for his past misdeeds, and trying to be the best damn father there ever was. He has regained his childhood kindness and gentleness by being around Azura, and those that used to know him say that she purified him. Mort now loves to just spend time with his darling and show her how much she means to him and how much he loves her. He is full of maturity and reason now, but even now hesitates to touch Azura or anyone he loves, as he doubts his control of his power every time. This aids in his gentleness, and will never raise his voice or his hand to his children nor his wife. When the situation calls for it however, he can draw on his old habits and personality to protect his family and mean business. He shows no mercy for those that try and harm his loved ones. This seems to aide Azura as she is overly trusting, thus he is an excellent foil to her, as he is always distrustful of strangers and not forgiving of those that harm them.

When she was younger she was very much brash and bull headed. She listened to nobody and did everything blindly without consequence. And for a few years, she would believe that she was a loner, needing nobody to live her life. But, she was very much wrong, as years of hardship and taking care of her daughters single handedly morphed her into the kia she is today. Today, Azura is a maternal figure. Always worrying and caring for her kids and family, and just a huge soft hearted sweetheart to everyone she meets. She's extremely loyal to her family and would give her life in an instant to insure the safety of any of them. When you first meet her, she seems bashful, not so much shy but bashful without a filter. She will tell you anything that's on her mind out of pure nerves and then regret it later, thinking she's driven you away (but that's usually not the case). She's way too trusting for her own good which has gotten her into some questionable situations in the past, but usually has a family member pull her out of that funk real quick if it ends up being dangerous to her own safety. She adores children with all her heart and would probably adopt 100 orphans if you let her loose. On the flip side, she will become a mama bear if you dare attempted to hurt any one of her babies, and can become quite frightening if the situation does come to pass.
