What if I make a GIF avatar, how much of a boost would that be?

Hmm.. If a headshot is worth 4-5 more points with me, probably around that range; maybe a little higher because of the difficulty in making gifs C:.
-never really thought about this ;n;-

Apollo

About me...
Username:
ElementStar

Why do you want him?:
I need more bright colored Skears, and
this little boy is simply to die for ;u;
I want one of my female Skears to be able
to have someone to care for, and I feel that
finding this little blind angel would make
their world complete, and mine. I know that
if I won Apollo, he would never be unloved.
I might add an accessory or two, but this
design is truly incredible, hopefully I will
be able to say that he was my first
adopted design that wasn't a Runner up.

About the Skear who cares for him...
Name:
Asteri

Gender:
Female

Where did she find him?:
She found him in the burning forest.

What was the first thing she said to him?:
"I am Asteri, Skear of Galaxies and the stars,
I will protect you."

Why did she save him?:
It was the right thing to do. She could
not leave him to die as his parents
did, in the fire.

About him...
Name:
Apollo

Gender:
Male

Age:
He's a little baby :3

Personality:
Apollo is a playful little Skear, very scocial. You would never know he had a dark past if it weren't for his eyes, so he does spend most of his time with his adopted mother, Asteri. He loves to laugh and play, but he is calm when night sets upon the land, not because he is tired, but because the land cools. He cherishes the night, the brilliant stars and the cool air, but he can be found crying into Asteri's fur, for he coolness of the night makes him remember the furious heat of the fire that engulfed his parents.

What caused his blindness?:
The fire. He gazed into the grand flame and it stole his sight from him.

What color were his eyes before the fire?:
Apollo had radiant, bright blue eyes. His eyes shone brighter than any star and were deeper than the great ocean, until his sight was snatched away by the dark fire the swept across the land, taking many lives, including his parents.

What is his least favorite season?:
Autumn. The red and orange leaves renind him of the fire that killed his family.


Why do you cry?
Tonight is a time of
Love and joy
Not sorrow or grief

They may be gone
But I am here
And shall not leave
For you and I
Are now one

The stars
Are many and wise
But the sun is one
And young and bright


His Savour, Asteri
Told by Apollo

"It was a normal day, I had been playing in the forest with my parents when my father smelled something odd. We ignored it, we fell asleep not long after."

"I had been sleeping in my mother's arms when it began... the fire. My father woke us up and rushed us into a clearing of the forest, believing that we would be safe there... Soon we were surrounded by fire. Far across the forest, beyond our knowing, another Skear had found the burning forest."

"She was Asteri, the Skear of Galaxies. She with the fur of stars, and the wisdom of those from before. She entered the burning entrance of the forest, the word falling around her into chaos. She knew where she has to go, she... knew who she had to find."

"My father was crushed under a burning tree trying to save me and my mother. My mother then shielded me with her own body, I pleaded for her to stop, I begged her to stop. She refused, her expresion did not bear her pain... but her love. She was crying for my father, for the forest, and for me. She then stopped looking at me, but at a dark figure in the burning forest. 'She's here...' my mother said, she picked me up and tried taking me to the dark figure, but and fell to the ground, to week to carry me or her own weight. 'Mother!' I cried, I shook her and cried when she opened her eyes, 'Don't let anyone tell you that you are not worth saving... you have someone to protect you now...' she gasped, the smoke choking her. Suddenly, a purple and star studded tail blocked my vriew of my mother, 'Who are you? Why are you here?' I wept, she smiled and licked my blackened fur, 'I am Asteri, Skear of Galaxies and the stars, I will protect you.' she said, her voice was like silk. 'Say goodbye to your parents before the travel to the stars.' And I did, I said goodbye to my dear father, with his dying breath he told me 'She is the one... the one who will give you the life you deserve, my son.' and then I wakled over to my mother, she told me 'There are more Skears like her, they are your survival in this world.' She wa not wrong."

"I turned to Asteri, the world was crumbling around her, myself, my dead mother, and my dead father. Suddenly, the world around me became foggy, soon all I could see were shadows, then everything went black. 'Do not fear, I will never leave you, my dear Apollo.' my name... that was my name, I was Apollo. I asked her how she knew my name, she licked my forhead and held me close to her body, 'I know because I am. I am your new mother. I am the Skear of Stars. And I am going to save you.' she said, I fell asleep in her soft fur, it was oddly cool while being surrounded with flame."

"I awoke outside, next to a shallow stream, and three Skears. My fur was wet, and I was oh so cold, then, one of those Skears held me close, her body was warm and her fur was like silk. I looked up and knew who she was, 'Asteri... my new mother...' I cried, I knew I would be happy with her, it was as if my parents had know what was going to happen, and they had known Asteri was going to save me. My fur, even though it was wet, was clean. 'How was I not burned?' I asked Asteri, but a dark blue male, Eruus, answered, 'Asteri protected you from the fire.' Then a pink Skear with blond hair spoke, her name was Kayle, "Yes, her fur is practically fire resistent!' she and Eruus laughed, but Asteri smiled at me, 'I love you Apollo.' I nodded, it was as if she were my real mother, I was a Skear of the sun, she the Skear of stars and Galaxies." Then I noticed something, I could not see. 'How did I know what they looked like?' I asked, very afraid. Asteri laughed, 'You can sense us, what we look like, our expresions, but not the world around you, only us, Skears.' ...I could sense colors and expressions, but was blind to the world."

"I still fear fire, but Asteri helped me grow used to my fear and my blindness. I was glad I could sense color, though I still needed help with details. I was glad I had seen Asteri before I became blind, I knew what my new mother looked like, and I would never forget. Some still mock me for being blind, but I know they are just jealous. jealous of the fact that I am the adopted son of Asteri and I have a life most would die for, a life full of love and joy."

Recording of myself singing the lullaby

Lullaby for Apollo

Do you wish apon the star?
In this world of black
And this world of light?
Do you seek out the wish
That holds you tight?

I understand your
Sadness
You pain
Do not fear,
My dear,
I will never leave your side
For I am here
And you are here
By me side
I will never let you fade
Your glow is ever bright
You will always have me with you
Even if we are
Apart




Soon To Discover
Told by Element

"Hello, many know me as Element, and that is who I am. My Skears also call me by Elemen. I calm most of the time, but you can except that I was surprised when Asteri showed up with little Apollo at her side..."

"I thought it was a prank for a moment, but Asteri would never prank anyone. I approuched her and the smaller Skear, Asteri reaked of smoke and ash. When I asked her why, she and my other Skears, Eruus and Kayle, exchanged glances and nods. It was Kayle who spoke, 'Asteri saved Apollo from the fire that killed his parents.' then I saw the baby Skear hide his face in Asteri's soft fur. I kneeled down near him and smoothed the fur around his face, he opened his eyes and then I saw that he was blind."

"Asteri explained how he could sense colors and expressions, but only with other Skears, so she had him place his paw on my hand and then my face so he could recognize me, 'He is my adopted son now, Element, and if you hadn't have noticed, his name is Apollo.' Asteri said, I could see it in her eyes that she was truly happy and cared for the young Skear."

"It was hard to convince Apollo to socialize with the other Skears, probably since he didn't really know any of them. After some time, he was quite the talkative baby Skear, even though he spent most of his time with the adult Skears, like Asteri, Eruus, and Kayle. We trained him how to play games, how to fight, and how to be happy. Both he and Asteri explained what happened in the forest in further detail, from how his parent's somehow knew of Asteri's coming, and how Asteri protected him from the fire."

"Do not be fooled, Apollo is a bright young boy, and he is learning to move beyond his past and look forward to the future. He may have had a normal life once, but since the fire he has been special, he has greater strength than you would think, no, not in physical strength, but mental. He is a brilliant boy with a bright heart, and I am proud to call him one of my Skears."



Recording of myself singing the song
Song Of The Ever Flame

The Fire
The Warmth
The War
The Pain

The bloodshed
It haunts you
It eats at your mind
It hungers for more
And feasts on your light

The stars
They cry,
They cry for your soul
Lost to the darkness
And lost to the light

Don't cry, my dear
There still is a path
That will lead you to the stars
And away from the black
Darkness
Pain
And loathing

The light,
It welcomes and warms
You cold soul
You frozen mind
The love of stars
The friendship of night
The embrace of the kindness
They will forever,
Be by your
Side

I am almost done with the baby Skear Lines, I think I might use them as art for this as well since I have spent so long on them.
