What is a Velynn? wrote:Velynns (pronounced [vehy-lynns]) are canine-like creatures most often known for their two soft tufts of feathers, one on their back between their shoulders, and one in place of their tails. The very first Velynns were created from particularly strong daydreams, thoughts, or ideas, and to this day those Velynns without parents come into existence through this same way. Being light and airy, much like thoughts and dreams, Velynns have been known to float. However, they never stop floating! A Velynn not held down will continue to float up and up forever, which doesn't often end well. Because of this, Velynns have always been given anchors of all colors to hang around their neck on a rope. This anchor allows them to walk and move normally on the ground, but it still allows them to levitate above the ground for short period of time, jump higher than normal, and seemingly drift around much more fluidly than any other similar species. If a Velynn was created from a particularly strong idea, it is not uncommon to see them surrounded with wisps of swirling, colored light, most often around their paws.


    My second Velynn as a guest artist. ^^
    I was going to reveal this beauty after I had judged the last one I made's forms but I thought that doing two wouldn't be that difficult to judge near the same time. ^^

    EDIT:

    The Winner is:

    Agent Zero!

    Congratulations!


    Due to some forms being WIP, I'm giving those the chance who have not yet finished their forms another day to complete them.
    The winner will be announced just after 12am on the 21st of February.

    Good luck to all!



    In order to win this guy/gal, fill out the form and tell me what colour anchor should they have and why.
    Code: Select all
    [b]Username: [/b]
    [b]Name:[/b]
    [b]Gender:[/b]
    [b]Colour of Anchor:[/b]
    [b]Why?:[/b]


    Extras and prettifying your forms are allowed.
    End date: 20th of February.


    Have fun, and good luck. ^^

[username]
      FoxerOwl vuv

[name]
      His name is Sailor, a quite cliche name he named himself.

[gender]
      Sailor is male.

[color of anchor]
      His anchor color is the color of his eyes, steely blue. (#79A9CF)

[why?]
      Well, first of all, I wanted to bring a lesser-used color of the palette into play, and the blue was simply perfect for the job.
      Second, if you color in the anchor with that blue, it kinda looks like a normal, steel anchor -- but more blue. He is a sailor, so that's perfect for him!
      And finally, I thought it just fit this Velynn. The color blue just fits the palette and personality perfectly. Besides, blue is more of a calm, cool color, and name is definitely more of a calm Velynn!

Username - Name - Gender

○~Discover~○ - Florence - Female

Color of Anchor:

The Color It is right now/White

Why?:

When Florence was little she had almost white fur. She thought it would be perfect for her light fur tone. Gradually, Her fur became darker, and her anchor began to stand out more. Florence didnt like it at first but she soon realized that the anchor made her stand out as a individual. It brought attention, and that often lead to someone looking at her, She loves how the White brings attention to her and makes her feel like shes worth something. When she was little she thought you had to be hidden and you couldnt outshine anybody else. As her fur changed, So did her views on everything.

Username: XRandomCatX
Name: Drake
Gender: male
Colour of Anchor: beige or light blue like his eyes
Why?: Those two colors seem to fit the design nicely. The light blue is a nice contrast with the dark base colors. The beige would just be a contrast color like his designs. Now I'm leaning towards the light blue. It's not such a flashy color and it's a nice and settling color for the darker toned colors of his fur. Beige and light blue are nice colors that go well with each other also.
currently trying to catch up with completing my WL since I've been gone, send a trade my way for older uncommon pets :)

    Name: Sorren
    Gender: Male
    Colour of Anchor: I'd love his anchor to be beige like his hair with two light blue-grey stripes on the side and one on the top.
    Why?: I think the colors would go well with the color of this handsome Velynn, especially since they match.

You're trying to shine dear

Username:
BlazzingWolf

Name:
Azure

Gender:
Female

Colour of Anchor:
A light blue grey silver sort of colour.
Similar to the colour of her eyes but not the same.
The colour of the rose here for a precise colour

Why?:
I believe a colour like this is will really bring out the colour of her eyes. A nice light grey/blue/silver brings a sense of light to the dark base colour. Making it seem to glow.
A colour like this also goes swimming with the orange colour of the markings. Both being light colours really makes it stand out on the dark.
Her anchor being this colour and seeming to glow against her dark colour, is a representation of her discovering a new light in the dark times of her life.

Bio on her
Born near a beautiful beach Azure grew up appreciating the small things in life. She knew that all the small things are what makes the world go around and they mean the most in life.
Many males wanted her for her beauty, but at this time, she wasnt interested in them. Love to her was precious but she wasnt willing to give it to anyone. Especially if it were just for her looks.
She tried to excel in many new things but she never succeeded. She acted like an expert but when the time came to put it into practice, she failed. Often leading in a big crash for her emotionally. Leading her to go into a dark place mentally.
Only then, was it that she discovered some thing she excelled at; singing. This was her escape. She felt better about everything when she sung. She could let out all her emotions. Leading her to finally, 'glow in the dark'. Singing brought her out of her dark place and into the world again. This was when she started to appreciate the small things.
She sung about love and what it meant to her. How she was in a very vulnerable place. How she finally found the light doing something she didn't know she could do.

Likes;
Singing
The beach
Swimming
The little things in life
Glowing things
Shiny things
The colour blue

Dislikes;
Being emotional vulnerable
Dark places with no light
Males following her around
Cheaters
Other who don't say what they mean

Why don't you glow in the dark




This is a real stunning fella <3
Simply magnificent

Sorry I didn't get to pretty it up like I wanted. I don't know how to and I'm on my iPod with little time left xP
Thank you for this opportunity

do not steal formatting or ideas off my form!! i'm sooooo sorry for the giant wall of text, but i just want you to read it. i can't make it any shorter than this. c:

Image
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

      we all carry these things inside that no one else can see......

      entrant's username --
        i'm agent zero. you can call me Zero, Agent, AZ, or even Estrella. which was my previous username. but don't mind me, i'm here to try for another one of these beautiful Velynn's.
      velynn's name --
        the chosen name for the Velynn is Jackson. His nicknames on the other hand, are based on a certain movie. his friends call him Capn' Jack, or Captain Jack. for the sense of being funny. but Jackson on the other hand hates it when they call him that. He doesn't mind the nicknames Jacky, Jack, JJ, or just is original name Jackson.
      chosen gender --
        Jackson's gender is male. i don't see him to be male, and honestly, it think it would be kind of weird for jack to have a male sounding name, and to be female.
      chosen anchor colour --
        a cloudy grey with a brick red splotches on the anchor's hooks.
      why the chosen color --
        why i chose for the color to be a stormy grey, is because finding grey and blue together is mysterious on it's own. and because of the brick red splotches on the hooks of the anchor. you'd link he's crazy. it used to be all grey, but now it has some red splotches on it. he could tell you a story on how that happened. but he'd rather not.

      they hold us down like anchors. they drown us out at sea.

      predicted personalty --
        in five words, Jack's personality is Adventurous - Outgoing - Serious - Crazy - and Daring. and i'll describe why.

        Jack is adventurous because at a young age, he used to watch all these Pirate and Western movies. Always in the end acting them out and liking them. He finally realized that probably western wasn't the way to go was when he was acting like a cowboy in his bedroom. When his baby sitter came in and told him to stop making all that ruckus and quiet down. Being to the part where his imagination runs wild, and he's too into it to stop. He yelled at her at basically telling her that there was no place for bossy girls like her and that she needed a few days in the cell. Well when his parents got home, he was still playing and his parents called him down. They asked him why he had said that. All he replied, was that ''on the movie I was watchin' it said that.'' And by the next day he lost all his movies and costumes and all western related stuff. He hated the day they did that to him. But his passion still lived on. In a small chest under his bed held an anchor and a lasso and two of his favorite movies. One western, one Pirate.

        He is very crafty. Some would also call him Sly. He is soooo sneaky he has scared and caught people trying to scare him many times. You'd think he's some ghost. Your walking up to him. And he already knows your there. Turning around and watching you with those piercing blue eyes of his. He can get serious. Sometimes snappy. He can make things sound serious even when one might not take him seriously. Even so, don't mess with him after he says ''I'm serious''. Ok, he can be defined as rather a bit crazy. But who cares, some of his ideas are awesome. Even when he's deemed crazy. The daring thing might be going too far when it comes to him, but it's true. He's daring. He will do anything just to have a good 'ol thrill. Even if it's rock climbing or sky diving. Sometimes swimming with the sharks. So to speak. He will do anything to have a thrill. So watch what you tell him. He's the person to take a joke literally and want to try it.

      a few secrets the velynn has --
        if i could be anyone in the world who would i want to be -
          "well i would love to be a pirate because of how they get to sail the high seas. be free and get to talk like a pirate. i would love to be the captain of the crew. have my won crew and take them on a sailing adventure no pirate has done before. last Halloween my friends and i all dressed up as pirates. me and my friends had a fun time, talking like pirates, acting like them and just having a good 'ol time. if i could give up this life, i would so take on the life of a pirate. me and my friends both."

        if i could have any tattoo what tattoo would i have -
          "actually that's not a bad question. i would get a tattoo if i could. the three i have narrowed down to was - an anchor - a skull with a pirates hat, and an anchor behind it - and a claw-like scar that looked so realistic i would be scary. the anchor was for my love of anchors basically, but after thinking about it now. i don't want that tattoo. the claw-like scar was my friends idea. they said it would be awesome and everyone would be wondering what happened to me. but after awhile of thinking about it, i was certain i didn't want a mob of people following me asking about that scar. if it was real or not. so finally i have my choice. the skull with a pirates hat, and an anchor behind it. of course the skull would be white with a bunch of cracks and missing pieces from it. some next to it, others missing completely. and the hat would be a darker brown, shaded with like ash almost and lining it, would have "Captain Jack" all spelled out in white. the feather would be blue and black and tattered from years of battle and wear. the anchor would most defiantly be a rusty 'ol thing with little blood splotches on it. why all this? it's because of a pirates years of pain and suffering, and also a pirates will to live and fight for his life, up until his last breath. that's what a captain's supposed to do right? so why not honor that honor? the honor of being a loyal captain. i think i deserve it. i mean all these dreams of mine pushed away. but this was meant to remind me of my dream i want to achieve, and that if i fight for it i will succeed. all i need is Perseverance, an open mind, and some loyal friends. and maybe some help down the road. just like a captain should. "

        what's your definition of freedom, peace, and harmony -
          "well you've gotta be dedicated, that's for sure. i mean just like in the old days. where people worked and worked for their freedom. day in and day out. that takes alot of guts to do it. freedom to me is... well.... letting go. everything. you just let it go. your feelings, your life. just let it go and be calm about it. everything in time will come together. there's no need to rush what can't be rushed. my definion of peace? well. in olden days when people used to meditate they called it nirvana. in the time of Buddhism anyways.
          from here wrote:nir·va·na noun, often capitalized \nir-ˈvä-nə, (ˌ)nər-\
          : the state of perfect happiness and peace in Buddhism where there is release from all forms of suffering
          : a state or place of great happiness and peace

          but truly my definition of peace is being at one with everything around you. just like nirvana. there is no changes. although i do not meditate, i do think about stuff in a way people wouldn't think about. questioning everything. and asking people what if? or why? or how? or what? i mean you can't learn something just from one source. you have to learn it and seek it yourself. and peace, is what one should search for. just being at one with your inner self. and finally, Harmony? well it's just tied up with freedom and peace. for one to have harmony, everything needs to be balanced. getting angry at someone else and being happy with another isn't right. now i know, what if so and so did something. well, yes, but truly be equal. make yourself and them happy again. that way your balanced. i do at times get mad with people. but it do end up balancing myself again. give it a try one day. and you'll see."

        what is one dream you want to achieve -
          "splendid question i must say 'ol chap! [giggles] i actually have many, many dreams. but this is the one i want to achieve. unlike my pirate dream, i have another. and that one is, to be able to see the sunrise from above the clouds. to flow with the breeze as it carries me away like i'm just another cloud. why you ask? well it's simple. this anchor limits my abilities. some have dared me to take it off. but i know the consequences if i do. and so i refuse. but i would one day love to go and fly high above the clouds. just to see the sunrise and sunset. i would also like to be able to touch the stars. but the atmosphere and space limit me. but when i'm up there, after sunset, i feel like i'm able to reach out and touch one. feel it's glow in my paws and feel that sense of nirvana. and that's the one dream i want to achieve. to be able to reach my goal of soaring to the clouds, and touching the stars."
