After much consideration, I felt that Dep's *or currently Breads'* form was most intriguing. The art was lovely as well ^v^
You may choose the eye color, as I had no plans for the eye color in the first place.

The forlorn traveler makes their mark. Dirge wanted to find new things. Life was boring, and he kept on falling asleep; he didn't want to be asleep, no. He wanted excitement; it came in the form of the shepherd mix. Tall with bright eyes and wagging tail; it was adventure.

Dirge is a dog who wants to find the meaning in life. Seemingly introspective, Dirge is often found staring into blank space looking as if they're in thought. He's often throwing himself into danger, believing alternate timelines exist and that somewhere he will be fine in a timeline. Otherwise, he's mostly kind. Kinda arrogant, but understands the pursuit of a goal; man will this dog go far to help reach someone else's dream. Dirge is pretty genuine with his thought and when he does something, it's thought through with all his heart. Nothing is done half-heartedly with him; every ounce of fiber and being goes into his actions. He's extroverted and friendly, excessively stubborn. Also super sleepy.

With the shelter Dirge fit right in. Many people enjoyed the dog's temperament; it made them feel welcome. His muscles strained waiting on command even as people just asked him to sit; the pleasure of being praised, any sort of validation. He was good with kids, liked meeting other dogs and cats, and often behaved as if he was a mixture of the two. Very curious and determined, Dirge's fullhearted effort often gets him into trouble whenever he does something wrong (mostly on accident, but sometimes he likes causing trouble. Messing with those 'alternate timelines' yknow. Dirge doesn't have much of a job aside from greeting people; he dabbles in obedience training but his snoozing gets in the way.


Dirge's reason for sleepiness is because of something he can't control. It seems silly, the fact his whole life purpose-finding something so exciting he won't fall asleep-is based on a disorder. Thankfully, once he was brought into the shelter we managed to minimize him zonking out so frequently.
Narcolepsy is the main reason why he's so sleepy; it happens in dogs every now and then, and it seems like poor Dirge managed to get the short end of the stick. His 'trigger' is mostly when he doesn't sleep well through a night or is very stressed; something lucky for us, as a good portion of narcoleptic dogs end up having excitement as a trigger, whereas Dirge's is stress. The best was his condition is managed is just by keeping him happy, but he's still susceptible to dropping sometimes and is often kept around carpet or soft surfaces for that very reason. Due to the fact Dirge is such an active dog he's almost in a chronic state of tiredness, but thankfully he's becoming more adaptive, and we're working on getting him to take short naps throughout the day in order to minimize it further.

Code: Select all

mm decided to try out since lack of forms

Man rei you just picked almost all my fave dog breeds and created the perfect mutt, got some lucky skills with breed choosing there xD

@Tomojojo - would you prefer the two be related somehow (i.e.; friends or similar) or would you prefer entrants to not include your pupper in their forms / have relations with em?
