Art above.

I'm finding it mostly hard to read your form. The font is rather small and I can't copy and paste to find out what it says. Overall from what I can see though, it's developed in the areas you have, and the art you provided is very eye catching! However compared to other entries, I just feel this one could have had more to tell me about her character.

By: Me- Beatnik said wings made of fire, So. . Heh. here are wings made of fire!

Aureus: Lyufl and Ari are best friends, They practically grew up together!They are always getting into trouble together and playing all sorts of pranks on their other friends. On the day's that Ari wants to be alone he just wanders around and waits for her to come find him so they can go do stuff. He has always been really tall and Ari loves to tease him by saying that hes short. They are both very protective over each other and would do anything to defend the other. Lyulf Secretly thinks that ari has a big crush on him but he's way to afraid to ruin their friendship so he has never asked her! He also Secretly has a crush on her.


Karim: No one Really knows how Lyulf and Karim ended up being friends, but they are. Karim thinks that lyulf plays his music too loud and has bad taste in fashion and lyulf thinks that karim is a party pooper who needs to lighten up. Karim and Lyulf are usually mad at each other for one thing or another but they always make up eventually. They both know that if they ever have a problem they can go talk to each other. Karim is the only Parra who knows that Lyulf like ari.


Vixen: Vixen and Lyulf have a bad history. Back when Lyulf was younger he met vixen and was Awestruck. At the time she was one of the Prettiest Parra's Lyulf had ever seen. He thought he was in love. When Vixen began hanging out with him more and more Lyulf began to ignore everyone else. One day Ari confronted him about it while Vixen was there and Then Vixen admitted that she really didn't really care about lyulf and then left. Lyulf was heartbroken but Then he realized he like Ari more then any other parra. though he still thinks of vixen from time to time he hasn't seen her since that day she left him.


Karliah: Karliah and Lyulf met while both inspecting video games. Karliah was really standoffish towards Lyulf at first because he wasn't into skyrim much. But now they are best gaming buddies and they are always comparing their levels and stats. When Lyulf isn't with Ari or Karim he is usually over at Karliah's playing games. They love to go on co-op missions and also enjoy playing against each other. Lyulf and Karliah also like inviting Ari over to play black-ops with them because then they get more votes for the map, And ARi isn't half bad at gaming herself although she thinks they could be doing better things. Some of lyulf's Favorite memories involve the tree of them and occasionally Karim Hanging out,playing games, and of course eating lots of pizza.

No one really knows where Lyulf came from. Some say he was born of a phoenix and then was turned mortal and given to his surrogate parents as a gift. Others say that one day the sun touched the earth and that he was hatched from the egg that lay there. Most people just believe he is Part Phoenix, Even thought he's not. Lyulf Never really found out where he came from, He hopes to one day find out. Lyulf Grew up in a rather large forest with lots of very tall trees. in one of the Many small clearings of the forest there was a clear pond with lots of small fish.This was always his favorite place to go when he was little. This is also the place where he met his best friend Ari. As he grew older him and Ari went on many adventures throughout the forest. At the same time Lyulf began to wonder why he was different from Ari and the other Parras, He was taller, and he had more feathers, and unusual markings. Its wasn't until a very long time later that he realized that it was okay to be different form the others. As Lyulf began to mature he Grew very tall and was soon Much taller than most parras. The feathers and the Base of his Tails Also became very large and also very beautiful. Many parra's admire his feathers and on the occasion one may fal out he always gives the fallen feather to someone who would like it.

Well, I have wanted A Parrapup for a very very long time but i haven't found one that i was really interested until now! I just adore His colors first off. They are so beautiful and i love how he has Flame Highlights and then a cream base, He is very Beautiful. Another reason i love him is because he is so tall and lanky. I don't know why i love that but i find it so adorable for some reason! I also really love his feathers! I Have a strange fascination with things that have feathers or wings and so it just makes him that much more amazing! I also adore the fact that he has two tails, Not very many adoptables crate one's with two tails and so this just struck me and Creative and Different

Hello! I am Ember the Wolf! Although most everyone calls me Ember. I have been on Chicken Smoothie for about a year and a half now and have been amazed by all the amazing things on here. I am a non-owner and i would just love to make the gorgeous boy my very first parra! I am part of a few other adoptables like simas, Wofeels, duster doges and Dreamy Munchkins. I would love to add a parra to my collection of adorable babies! I have also tried out to be an artist because i adore parras and i would love to be an artist!
My plans for this beautiful parra include lots of role-playing, Art making and snuggling! I also plan on writing lots of story's including a Halloween one where he and Ari play a prank of Kerim and get in trouble.

September 1st

Today the strangest thing happened to me, I was out walking to the waterfall up the canyon and there was this little orange rock. At first there was nothing very peculiar about it, but then it kept showing up. I Thought that maybe it was just my imagination. but then when i got to the waterfall. There it was! i tiny orange rock among all of the grey and silver ones. I told myself if it was still there when i came back this way i would take it home with me. When i came back down from my favorite spot near the top of the waterfall it was still there!. So I scooped it up and took it home with me, Now it's sitting on my desk next to this book. Anyways, Maybe it does something cool? I guess i will find out.

Lyulf

September 5

So today while i was working on some of my Stuff for That art competition coming up i noticed that the little orange rock i had found by the pond was not where i had set it. Looking around i saw it! it was floating!! right by my head! it was the strangest thing ever!! Not only that but it goes with me!I don't know why it is doing this, So i think i will go talk to my friend who knows about this kind of stuff, maybe he will have some answers for me. For now i guess i will just have a rock floating around me. At least its small, and its kinda cool. Anyways

Lyulf

September 7

So yesterday I went and talked with Karim about my little orange stone. Karim had never seen or heard anything like ti but he said he would look into it a bit and talk with some of his old professors. He said they might know something. Other then that i haven't really found out much. The stone stays near me always, and its always warm. Lots of Parra's think its cool, but no one has said anything other then that. it almost looks like some kind of gem almost. it is rather reflective when you put it in the light. who knows? maybe its some kind of rare gem that bonds with parras? I guess i won't know until Karim talks with his professors.

Lyulf

September 21

So, It's been a while since i found my little stone. Karim still hasn't found anything out about them. Im actually quite used to it now. I actually enjoy having my little stone follow me around. Lots of parra's admire it, and it hasn't hurt me. So i might as well keep it right? Karim said he saw no harm in me keeping it. Although he thinks that there may be some magic in them, he's not sure. He said he was doing some heavy research in the NPL, or National Parra Library. They have a lot of useful things there,I mostly go to check out the comic books
The Most amazing thing just happened! I was Walking Home with Karim and all of a sudden he noticed two more stones had joined my one! I never even noticed them! they just appeared, And Karim say's it looks as if they are all different stones because the ordinal is still the same size and the same flawless shape it was before. Maybe i picked them up at the library? Who knows, Karim said that there must be a connection between the three of them,

Lyulf

October 3

So today while me and Ari were walking we found a fourth stone! Karim Asked me to come visit him and his professors today so they can examine the stones, I'm really nervous. I don't want them to take the stones away from me, Especially if they aren't causing any harm. I really like having the stones, I Enjoy how they look, and its almost like having four tiny pets that you don't have to feed or bath or stuff! Plus sometimes when you hold them they are warm and its nice. Besides, Ari says that they look cool, and its pretty awesome because if i have magic floating stones who say's i cant have magic in myself as well? Karim say's that that is very unlikely but whatever, Karim is just jealous because he doesn't have any magic. I have also noticed that sometimes the stones glow slightly! Not enough that i could like see in the dark or anything, but they all have a little bit of a glowing quality, I didn't notice it but while we were gaming one day Karliah noticed that they were glowing softly. I can't wait to see what else they do!


Lyulf

Despite small spelling errors, (I don't count those) this was rather intriguing to read! You put in a large amount of detail to show the parra's arrogant side, but gave reason as well with how he accepted himself. His confidence is nice to see for a different parra, and I like the journal entries you took the time to write out! Not to mention you also did flame wings which I was really hoping on seeing.

Name ;; Harvey - [i]English surname transferred to forename use, from Old French Hervé, from Breton Haerveu, meaning "battle worthy."
Gender ;; Harvey is a male Parrapup.
Age ;; He would be considered the equivalent to 30 human years.

Song ;; The Phoenix by Fall Out Boy
Alternate Songs ;; His Playlist
Previous Occupation ;; Harvey used to aid the humans in war, thus resulting in him being a War Veteran. It has been a few years since he was dismissed from the military, due to certain issues.

Pre-War Traits ;; Before the war, Harvey was a very pompous parra. He'd often think more highly of himself than others, thinking that they were 'under him', per se. He was also known for being a pretty boy, and sometimes even a player. Dedication wasn't really his strength. Very extroverted, he enjoyed attending parties; resulting in being very social.
Post-War Traits ;; After signing up for war, there was a drastic change is Harvey's personality. He became more humble towards others, albeit he also took on a more aggressive role. Now he views himself as equal to everyone, and can be a little bit of a grump at times. Nowadays he tends to stay inside, but isn't afraid to interact with other Parrapups.

Problems ;; Harvey here has a minor case of Pyromania. He takes great pleasure in burning things, slowly watching it ebb away into an ashy state. It doesn't help when he forms his fire wings, causing him to fly through forests and light all the trees on fire... He has become a destructive little butt.

Scars & Other Abnormalities ;; The most noticeable scar he has is over his right eye, although it's a very small one. He earned it when roughhousing with a human on the battlefield. He also has a large burn scar, which is hidden under his tail feathers. It was from an accident where he had been lit on fire... most of his feathers and skin had been burnt away, but he grew his feathers over the wound later on. His paw-pads are also slightly blackened, and the colour hasn't come out for a while.

Relationships ;; Space Core - It's safe to say that these two are on relatively good terms. They have there moment, where Harvey gets a bit annoyed with Space's constant annoying... but other than that, they enjoy each other's company.
Godiva - Harvey is very amused by Godiva. He enjoys watching her put on little fashion shows for him, mainly because he hasn't had kids of his own, yet. He also enjoys when she calls him 'Uncle Harv'.
Khya - These two get along fairly well, but since Khya isn't as annoying as Space Core, he gets along with her to most. Sometimes they find mutual likes, and talk about that one like for hours. Although, he isn't too fond of when she goes into Diva mode.

Meeting New Parras ;; At first, Harvey seems to come off as a bit disgruntling. Replies will come out in short quips, and they gradually get longer once you get to know him more.

Favourite Book ;; Harvey has taken a liking to 'The Five People You Meet in Heaven'.
Favourite Movie ;; Harvey has always been a 'Top Gun' fan.
Favourite Hobby ;; Making extravagant firework displays, 'nuff said.
Favourite Fictional Character ;; Deidara from Naruto, he makes things go boom.

Secrets ;; Harvey has always loved kids, and wants to form a suitable family one day: meaning that he won't switch from partner to partner. He's also a huge fan of anime, specifically Naruto and Blue Exorcist. Harvey also has aquaphobia, to the extent where he can go in the water, but will refuse to go any deeper than his ankles.

Plans for Halloween ;; He usually just hands out candy, but this year Space Core, Godiva and Khya convinced him to come Trick-Or-Treating with them. He's going to wear his old army uniform.



Art ;; Short PMV, Scar Chart, Drabble Set

I liked the ideas you had within the form, but I also feel like it wasn't completely developed character-wise. I have to say though, I do really love the short PMV for it being different. I think the form would have been better with a bit more metaphorical glue to tie the ideas all up together.

Named after the Great Marquis of Hell whose image was said to be that of a Phenex with a voice as sweet as a childs

IT was a bit odd but maybe it was due to his very close appearance of a phoenix that allowed Phenex to have a great amount of fortune, not in terms of money or possessions but he was fortunate in the term that no matter what happened he got out of it alive, somewhat unharmed and always managed to live another day. He always somehow managed to have food in his stomach even if it was only small but it was something. He often found a helping paw, claw or hand that was willing to help him if he ever needed it, he found objects that he thought he had lost that in most cases were given to someone else that loved them more unless he held it dear to his heart but his stones did that. He was never one to want objects and become rich, he wanted to become rich within his heart, spiritually and emotionally so in most ways he thought himself fortunate in every sense of the word.

For someone that looked so warm, innocent and heartwarming Phenex had a terrible streak of naughtiness. He often found himself playing small little pranks, mimicking and taunting others as a joke but never going to the point that it became harmful. He did however go to the point that he has been flung, beaten and chased around; the chasing though, Phenex found fun and amusing until he ran out of a places to run to or hide in. As a result, his behavior has gotten him into a few sticky situations where the end result has lead him to avoid certain areas completely. Who knew they couldn't take a joke.

He wasn't always dishonest, well he isn't to those he cares for or respects but anyone else, they're fair game. Phenex as a result has a tendency to lie and con others into doing something he doesn't want to do or into getting him something but he mostly uses this naughty little ability to get out of those bad situations when he is being mischievous. He will happily promise you the world, tell you what you want to hear and in some cases say that he will be there when in fact he won't do any of this. He can't commit and in return it's come off as being dishonest so he doesn't have to run but rather get out of the situation in a more charming way. Though he does not know it, his father has this trait and it runs deep.

You would honestly think that Phenex would be a bit more careful since he lives on the streets and basically in the wild until he goes home to his foster family. He, however is rather careless in both his words on occasion and in his actions. He can be very clever footed and just seems to be this magnificent graceful creature but there are these small occasions where he just does not seem to get anything right. He says the wrong thing, he doesn't think some days and when he's having real bad days he's careless in body where he walks into everything, knocks things over and just generally becomes a nuisance and a danger to himself. those days he feels as if he's better curled up somewhere in a nice dry warm spot while he grumbles to himself.

A terrible fault with this parra is that he doesn't know when to shut his beak, he knows half the time when he's wrong but he just can't back down from someone saying bad things to him or saying when he's wrong even though he knows when he is wrong. He doesn't know why but whenever someone becomes aggressive when talking to him he cant help but want to stand his ground and argue back, he hopes though that it'll start to die down so that he can pick his fights rather than blowing up at everything. It is one thing to note though that his mother unbeknownst to him held the same type of behavior though she was more charming in the act rather than making large aggressive chirping and snaps of his beak.

Troubled by his past, Phenex dwells on it often, he holds dark little things in his heart and in some ways his bad behavior is a cause of those troubled thoughts and feelings. He doesn't understand or feels that he ever will understand as to why his family had ever left him to his foster family. He doesn't understand why he can be so different and there would be no clues as to what would give birth to him. He has been brought up to embrace it, to be loved but when he watches the young of his family he feels that he doesn't belong and it bothers him to no end. He doesn't look at families with a smile like others would but with confusion, he has trouble with commitment due to these troubles as well and as a result he doesn't have many friends or anyone he would trust to go to for anything, except maybe one.

Sunbathing
On lazy days he likes to sunbath,
his belly when no one is around will be on display
until he turns and lets everything else warm up,
he will happily do this for hours because sometimes
a parra needs some down time.

Sunny days
When the weather is sunny
with no clouds or very little Phenex feels that
he can do anything he feels like he's so full of
energy and when he looks up to the sky he feels
free and if he can stretching his wings even
better, he feels as if he is on top of the world.

Playing jokes
Playing a prank here and
there gives him great joy and the more
thought that goes into the prank the better
it is for him, its a sense of achievement
when he gets it right and something he
doesn't think he will ever tire out of.

Sweet things
Anything from berries and
fruits Phenex has a massive like of sweet
things though he doesn't like overly sugared
things he still prefers it to savory and bitter.
He will always leave these until last so he can
keep the taste in his mouth longer.

Spreading his wings
Not always able to do it
Phenex enjoys the feeling of freedom when
he summons his fire wings and can actually
stretch them without someone trying to catch
him or put out the flames.

Cuddles
A weakness that he is not
fond of admitting is being able to cuddle with
his family or even the thought of his real
parents he likes to sleep in a pile together.
He feels connected, loved and warm when
he knows he isn't alone.


Running
Just like spreading his wings
Phenex loves to run, loves to do things like
parkour, twists and turns or just a full on
run in a straight line. He feels as if he is
the fastest thing in the world when he runs
and when he climbs, jumps and twists he
feels invincible

Water
Phenex doesn't like going
near any amount of water, he has been
splashed a few times with his flames and
in some cases it has been in winter, he
dislikes it greatly, it has never been a
comfort to him

Swimming
Paranoid about his stones
getting wet and no longer working, he
doesn't dare swim or let water touch them
and because of that Phenex has developed
a dislike for water especially if his whole
body is in a body of water

Rainy Days
Nothing good comes from
rainy days they make him cold and miserable
and in a few cases it means something bad
has happened in his eye she feels the most
alone when it rains.

Bitter things
Sour and bitter things make
him cringe and want to scrap his tongue
clean, maybe because he has had his fair
share of rotten food that's been bitter and
now his body sees it as something bad even
if it is perfectly fine to eat.

Commitments
Worried that he'll be left
behind or that someone will be disappointed
in him Phenex dislikes any type of
commitments due to the troubled thoughts
he associates with it. He will avoid them at all
costs and flee once he gets the chance.

Loneliness
It's a hard thing for him to
admit but he hates being lonely, he hates
having to sleep on his own sometimes
and he hates that he hasn't found a group
of friends either, sure he calls them friends
but not friends enough for him to fall asleep
safely around them. It a difficult thing for
him to admit and because of it he has to
deal with a lot more than he really has to.

It was odd, a mystery where this creature found those magical stones that hovered and became fire. To all that saw them they were seen as precious, magnificent treasures that in all right should not be with such a creature as Phenex.
Phenex himself knew how he got the stones but not from which they came but they were precious none the less, as precious as those tags that came with it that said sweet nothings.

He was but a young teen when he first received his first stone, homeless, timid and paranoid of all those who dared to come near him, the light was comforting at that time but the darkness somehow gave him that same sense of comfort. One felt like a father's wing and the other, a mother's.

He had as a young pup been brought up by a loving family of ravens, sweet and kind but with the male of the pairing, mischievous and taunting at times. The female that often nested or cared for her young always kind and loving to the small pup. He was loved, cared for and most of all, safe but it same as a shock to the young parra when all that love turned to isolation within his own mind, a darkness that had somehow slipped in from looking different, from being different.

He hadn't been rejected, all the family had tried to comfort the pup but in the end, with a heavy heart and a sing song or fair well, the Raven's had to let the parrapup do what he must, to find where he came from to find his true family even if his family in a sense would always be with the raven's.

To this day each new chick, even the old, the mother and the father would fly to see Phenex once the parra was near the area and in some rare occasions they would fly far to check on the boy. He loved them dearly but he held a yearning in his heart, one to find his home, his birth family and to find why he felt comfort in both light and darkness.

As he traveled, he met other parras, sat with them, chirping and chattering at one another until he felt ti right to move on, most had families already, people to go back to and in some cases those owners had tried to catch him, he was different after all. He survived somehow, he mimicked words, sounds to steal food and in some cases, just to mess with others.

It was one day though, as mentioned before when he was a young teen in parra terms that he found himself huddled behind a dumpster, lightning all around and rain pelting down to soak through his fur if he so much as stepped out. It had been one of his moments where he thought that it might have been best to go back to his raven family and just live life there but as his mind had nearly set on defeat a large flash of lightning so bright it must have blinded anyone that had been looking directly at it.

The moment he had looked up though, shock, fear and awe written across his face was the moment he saw a flaming feather float down in front of him, every inch it took, the part of the feather that had burnt turned into a glittering ash until finally all that remained on the floor was a beautiful amber stone that radiated a comforting warmth and with it a soft song that left far too soon.

The stone itself seemed to have a mind of its own once Phenex had touched it with his beak, it had wobbled at first but once it seemed to have gathered itself it had floated its way, lazy but childish in manner until it settled at the back of Phenex's neck, floating in its new home.
The whole thing had left the parra in awe but somehow it left a deep ache within his chest because that song felt as if it was something he should know, someone he should know but for the time being he gained his fire, the one that burnt within him but held no presence in the outside world until that very day.

The other three stones came slowly, it was as if the person who was giving them to him could only make them sparingly but he felt that they were reminders that whoever was sending them was watching, was thinking of him and it comforted him greatly.
The second had come when he'd found himself in his first fight, a rather aggressive parra having torn a few feathers out and left the poor thing to skitter away with his tail between his legs, his fire was a comfort but not a weapon.
That night, he had cradled the new stone and listened to that song as he fell asleep, the little stone making its way to his neck while he rested.

The third had been no different, they came when he went through hardship, ones that taught him the harshness of life and in the third stones case, the reality of how short life actually is. The song however had changed to accompany a second voice, a male he realized, smooth but not all that perfect and if he had lips he would have smiled but his eyes held a twinkle that night until they'd vanished into the world as they always did.

It was not until the fourth one had landed that everything changed, he was now in his adult feathers, his mind and years still young but his body was now fight to do what he needed to do. He'd become rather handsome in the words of some of the parras he chattered to, the ravens had been proud, the mother had fluffed her feathers and cawed until Phenex had become so bashful the father had started to make a noise that sounded an awful lot like laughter. He found life to be good as a wild parra, well as wild as one could be in the world now a day, his quest for his family had dulled and his pain of being different had dulled too but when a storm had arrived, much like the one where he got his first stone (the others had come at the dead of night) the storm had been brutal, it left the parra huddled, shivering and curled so tightly into himself he looked nearly half the size he was but when that flash went off again Phenex has bolted up right because nothing bad had happened, nothing life changing except the stone was life changing.

It held a black feather that burnt along with the orange and gold one.
This was a pair that was sending these stones to him, they calling for him, comforting him, they were home.

When the singing had started as perusal, soft and distant as usual Phenex had no stayed to listen he had started to run, his wings of fire no longer safe in the rain but if didn't stop him from running, calling for the voices to show him where.

He wanted to go home.

Phenex has a bit of a admirer, a little raven chick that likes to try and steal his stones whenever it got the chance to. The chick itself never made much of a noise and in response Phenex didn't know if it was a girl or a boy but he did know that it seemed to have a crush on him. It became all bashful when Phenex looked at it and almost gave off this little body wiggle when he did. He didn't mind the chick at all really, the stones always came back and they never hurt it either so he saw no harm in it, besides its parents brought him up. The little chick became somewhat of a companion whenever Phenex was in the area, it would settle somewhere on his body and ride along, sometimes it would try and glide and then climb back up. They got on well and sometimes Phenex wished he could take it with him whenever he was out of the area.

For Halloween this cheeky parra plans on tricking as many as he can and getting as many sweet things as he can that his body can handle, cant be eating those sweets that made him sick after all. His plan is to use his flames in the dark to make him look as ghostly as possible, the effect of a jack-o-lantern in the dark. This a season just for him to be as mischievous as he possibly can and he is going to love every second of it. He may possibly go and visit his semi friend Anxite, the strange witch doctor parra that often creeped him out more than he made him feel at ease.

Anxite was a weird thing, even though he found himself walking toward the little dark nook that the parra called home he still questioned himself as to why he was actually going to see the parra. The parra himself was odd, he had blue markings that stood out far too much and the nose piercing was strange in itself but Phenex found that he didn't mind the appearance as much as he minded the cold mocking look that always seemed to be present in his eyes. It was as if the parra was mocking everything you did, that you were beneath him in every way possible. the thought alone made his feather stand on end and he hated it.

As he walked through the dark, mindful of his stones hovering behind him Phenex thought of an excuse to meet Anxite, it was silly that he needed an excuse, Anxite himself always seemed to know that half the time he went to go see him it was just for companionship, it was as if Anxite knew his dislike for loneliness. He was grateful for the cool breeze and the empty streets as he traveled from concrete and into the woods, dark and ominous as the one that resided in it. His own flames a comfort in the dark Phenex knew he was getting close when he heard clicking.

When Phenex had first discovered the parra it had freaked him out, form the woods being as dark and haunting as it was and then the strange clicking that he later found out to be Anxite's bad habit when he was thinking which was often. He also learnt that when that clicking stopped, you stopped. It meant that Anxite was watching you with complete attention that even his bad habits couldn't come through. The first time it had happened was when Phenex had fallen into the barrow of his home, large and spacious as if a bear had somehow slipped into the slim pathway and tunneled the inside into something more its size.

Phenex didn't quite like it much, he needed the sky above him to feel a real sense of calm int he darkness.

Once he reached the burrow the clicking continued until Phenex placed a paw onto the edge and then it stopped, started after a few moments and then stopped again once Phenex made a noise that was his alone. The return noise was a welcome, a slow smooth sound that would put shivers down his spine but now it was almost welcome.

So without much thought Phenex slipped down the rabbit hole to meet the mad hatter.

I had to say something, write something, do something to put my feelings onto something solid, into something meaningful .

My one and only child, though you are not born a phoenix but a firecracker peacock you are still my precious little fire bird, you look almost like your father and very little of me, not that I mind. In fact, I had hoped that you would take take after your father, often prayed for it once you had been laid. It makes me proud to see the fire that seems to burn within your father burns within you too.
If you had taken after me, my little phoenix, you would have blended into the shadows and no one would ever have known you even existed, it has its advantages but it by no means as beautiful as to what you would become if you took your father's coat.

This cant be long, it'll be destroyed once it's complete but I wish i had the chance to raise you, though the ravens are a good family, the best i could think of when we handed you over once you were old enough to manage without me. I still wish to every star that I had been able to care for you and to see you grow but instead we can only give you those small gifts that nestle to you close and hopefully keep you warm at night. I wish i could show myself but I cannot, your father has once to you but not for long, we can never be around for long.
I wish i could tell you why we had to leave you and why we cant come to you once you've grown, i truly do, it would allow me to rest at night and to look at you without too much regret on my part.

I hope that one day we can make amends when we are able to meet but until then, my little firecracker keep safe and always know that we will try and protect you whenever we can.

[Beatnik]

And who might you be?
I am Pyro. My name is the Grecian word for "Fire". My mother named me for my fiery color.

Gender?
I'm male, of course.

What's your favorite song?
Ed Sheeran's I See Fire. I find the tune soothing and melodic, and the song reminds me of simpler days... Days when I was young and my mother would sing lullabies to me. In fact, I believe she used to sing this exact song to me. It also reminds me of the wildfire that tore her away from me... Anyways.

What was your past like?
My past? Well. I suppose I should start at the beginning.
I was born in a small den during a snowstorm, the roof formed by tree roots. My father was non-existent in my life, my only family being my mother and my younger sister. I don't remember much of the early days...My first memory is the day my sister disappeared... My mother was out searching for berries, and my sister and I were playing together outside. She heard a noise in a bush and wandered towards it. I heard a branch crack and turned toward it, and when I turned back she was gone.

Soon after, a wildfire struck the forest my mother and I lived in. A falling tree limb pinned her wings, and she insisted that I escape without her...

Now I am a nomad, traveling far and wide in search of my lost sibling. I have no home, no friends, nothing to hold me back. One day, I will find her, and our family will reunite. This is my dream, and I dare not give it up, for then I would have nothing.

Where are those stones from?
Oh, these? The day I lost my sister, I found the first. I raced around the forest in search of her, and found one on the riverbank. It began to glow when I neared it, and I decided to keep it.

The second and third I unearthed from the ashes of my old home. I returned there several days after the wildfire, only to find my home burned to ash and rubble. In the den in which I was born, I found the second and third of my stones. They, like the first, began to glow. I quickly added them to my collection and ran away from the graveyard of my childhood.

The fourth I found when traveling, searching for my sister, one day. A hawk was carrying it in its talons, and, spotting a fish and no longer interested in the stone, dropped it. As it fell, it began to glow, so I ran as quickly as I could to catch it. As soon as I added it to my collection, all four stones burst into flames. Afraid, I dove into a nearby pond. The stones soon extinguished. I began training myself to control the flame, and now I can.

How would you describe yourself?
Me? Hm. Well.
I consider myself a bit quiet and reserved. I don't trust anyone, because everyone I used to trust, my mother and sister, ended up hurting me. I am friendly and polite to everyone I meet, but it takes quite a bit to earn my trust.

I am pessimistic, due to the tragedies I have experienced.

I am a traveler. I have been everywhere, in search of my sister, and have no real home. I love visiting new places, and often find myself following in love with each place I visit.

The information you gave is rather nice to read, and I can see it a bit for the character, but I also feel like this form is more of a WIP.

*gasp* a recording device! I can use this for um.... a diary thing! OK, OK here we go-
My name is Fauna, I'm a girl Parrapup, and my favorite song is In the hall of the mountain king by Edvard Grieg. OK then! Done with the basics, How 'bout I tell you more about myself then. Like I said, I'm Fauna and I've lived in the Phoenix Manor my whole life, oh and speaking of phoenixes, everyone says I look like one (well, I think they would at least), but that's silly. Anyone can see I look more like the firecracker peacock that's on those boxes of fireworks in the backroom, I actually sewed up a plush version of it, I might get more on that later. Now what as I talking about... oh yeah! So, Phoenix Manor, my home sweet home. I've lived here longer than I can remember, and it's really nice, if not a little bit lonely. There's a library I can just sit in for hours, reading any kind of book I want, a garden full of flowers and hedges that I learned how to tend for from books in my library, my favorite would either be the bush with golden and blue flowers that attract butterflies, or the really big hedge I made to look kind of like me. I mean it's not the best likeness of me, but I made it so I'm pretty proud. I spend my days doing anything I can either think of or find in my books.

Reading, making art, practicing swimming in the Manor's pool, tending the gardens,
cleaning, singing, sewing,
dancing, playing video games (but only sometimes), playing any instrument I can find,
readi- no wait I said that, talking to Crackers,
working on the fireworks in the backroom, flying (but never too high),
I've learned to balance on my hind legs pretty well
after a few weeks of practice (it's useful for reaching extra high books,
It's not like I can fly indoors, that's rude), pottery, and reading.

I think that's enough about where I live, how about I talk about *looks around* oh! MY floaty rocks! They actually aren't magic or anything silly like that, they're just pretty colored magnetic stones. I found them when I was really little, just a little fledgeling (I may actually have pictures around here) and was first exploring the Manor, I just thought they were fancy rocks, I didn't know they were magnetic so I just kept them in a stack by my bed. I discovered they were magnetic after I fell off a ladder. Long story short, I now have metal in between my shoulders and there were no ladders in the Manor for a few years. So yeah, on the first night after getting all patched up, imagine my surprise when I was just laying in bed and the rocks just flew over to me and started hovering over my back! I liked them so I've kept them ever since. What else to talk about, hmmmm... I know, Crackers! Crackers is the stuffed firecracker peacock I made when I was little. I've improved him a whole lot since then, actually looks more like the picture on the box than a blob with two pieces of fabric stitched on for wings. I talked to him when I felt alone, and I still do sometimes, but not as much as I did as a fledgeling. He's kind of like my security blanket, and also my literal blanket because of how I made his tail, Here let go find him. .... OK while I was gone I thought of something to talk about, HALLOWEEN! this year will be my first Halloween that I actually went trick or treating instead of staying in and watching all the other Parras. I've been so excited that I've made tons of costumes, I'm having trouble picking which one to wear! Uh oh, I think I'm running out of battery power (I'll have to find a book on how these work), well anyway I'll have to do this again, bye!

About Fauna

Likes

Dislikes
mean people- Fauna's only real link to society may have been
books, but she still has a strong moral code and can tell right
from wrong.
Liars- Fauna can't stand it if someone is lying or withholding
information from her (unless it's for a birthday party, she's
read about those and they seem pretty fun).
Scary things- While she isn't afraid of the dark, Fauna can be
startled if one so much as makes a noise while she's reading a
scary story.

Reading- Fauna spends whole days curled up in the library reading as many books as she can. She reads any kind of book, and it would be hard to pick a favorite, but if she had to Fauna would pick non-fiction books.
Learning new things- Fauna loves learning about everything in the world around her, especially nature, activities to do, and places.
practicing her hobbies- Most of Fauna's time is spent mastering many things she read about in her books. most of them may be useless, but some may actually come in handy during a situation.

[Doesn't need protection] Fauna is sweet and innocent, but that doesn't necessarily mean that she is naive. She's lived alone for her whole life, and has read many books on the art of combat, so she can take care of herself if anything happens.
[Fire abilities] Fauna understands that it is unusual for a parrapup to have powers of any kind, but she doesn't feel that her abilities make her any different from the others. She mostly uses her abilities to make light to do something by (mostly reading).
[flying] While she does practice flying, she doesn't do it very often, and she never flies higher than the mansion. So while she can make short flights, she can't fly too high, or in any negative weather conditions (except gentle snow).
[Being alone] Since she spent her whole life alone, she tends to talk quite a bit when there is anything she can talk to, and if there isn't she's perfectly content with talking to herself or inanimate objects. She now's full well they're fake, but it make's her feel more comfortable.Despite this there are times when she mutters to herself without knowing it.
[friendly] Fauna is very friendly to those who are friendly to her, love's using her learned skills to help others, or just to be kind.
[Quirks/habits] Fauna tends to do little dances or sing under her breath whenever she's fully absorbed in something, others may find her odd because of it.
[age] Fauna is in her late teens (18-19).
[Phoenix Manor] Fauna is the current occupant of Phoenix Manor, a large manor that everyone thinks is abandoned. But some fledglings say that late at night,you can see flickering lights, like fire, and on stormy nights, there are colorful lights above it, almost as if someone's lighting off fireworks. They say that it's the spirit of the Manor's old owner, or that it's the ghosts of the Parrapups who died in the making of the huge mansion, or that it's the actual Manor. Well, whatever you believe, no one dares to go near it.

WIP

What you put out is so cute, omg. I was really hoping for more to read, but I think that was the real only downfall: there doesn't seem to be enough about the character. For doing a camera as a way to make your form was very unique, and I loved the idea!

PSYCHOLOGY


• fears
-arachnaphobia - fear of spiders
-aquaphobia - fear of water
-apiphobia - fear of bees
-arachibutyrophobia - fear of peanut
butter sticking to the roof of your mouth
• secrets
-he secretly loves to dance like a dork
-he hates anything involving peanut butter
-he snores. loudly. he actually avoids sleeping
near anybody just so they wont learn how
incredibly loudly and sloppily he sleeps.
• groups or alone
nick goes back and fourth here. sometimes
he loves to be alone, yet other times he
strives for companionship. whether or not
he wants to be with other parras is dependent
almost solely on his current mood.
• leader or follower
when he strives for companionship, he is the
one to initiate conversation and heavily
prefers to lead. however, if someone else
steals his leadership title from him, hes
too much of a chicken to steal it back.
• ambitions
nick strives to overcome his hatred of
peanut butter. it may seem odd, but he
has basically everything hed ever want and
his only true hatred is for peanut butter.
getting over this is his only prevalent ambition.

THOSE STONES

so, the thing youve been waiting for.
some info on those odd stones. well, when nick
was a youngun, he wasnt exactly what youd call
special. he sported the tan fur and orange markings,
yes, but he was a completely ordinary parra.
until he found the stones. see, those stones
are actually ancient treasures. nick was out
on his own adventuring one day when he found
the stones grouped together in an ordinary
tree stump. naturally, his curiosity took over,
and as soon as he touched them, he was
transformed into the parra you see before you.
it gave him a godlike affinity for fire, including
that magical ability to conjure up wings at a
moment's notice. hes always been curious about
the stones.. and why they transformed him. but
alas, he has never been able to figure it out,
and has cast the incident aside and rubbed it
off, declaring it was simply the work of fate.
hes read book after book, and the only
information on the stones he was able to
find said that they are literally glassy shells
containing something that is apparently
lava. the glass on the outside not only
gives the stones its glossy finish, but
also cools the lavalike substance
tremendously and makes it touchable.
nick has become infatuated with these
stones and questions about what they
have to do with him have kept him up
many sleepless nights.

BASICS

• name
phoenix

• pronunciation
fēniks (fee-nicks)

• origin
in mythology, it is a unique bird
with flaming wings. it can also
be used to refer to a person
regarded as unique or even
remarkable in some aspect.

• nickname
ironically, his only 'nick'name
is "nick".

• gender
i can only see this parrapup
as a male.

• song
animal crossing new leaf 2am music

• why
like nick, this song, though
instrumental, is upbeat and
quirky. my choice of song was
meant to symbolize personality
in such a way that words arent
needed to get the main idea.

nick in mid transformation after finding the ancient stones (drawn by me c:)

I really love the art and idea of transformation. You also have such lovely art to go along with it. You as well gave nice detail to the sections you added.

Watch this space for further development C:

Dr. E Mills is a zoologist and has a love for animals that started ever since she walked under the legs of a giraffe in Africa while her parents looked after sick cheetahs. Since then, she has never missed the opportunity to glimpse and study wild creatures in their natural habitats.

I first glimpsed the creature in the forest. It was twilight, so I almost missed him as I sat in my tree. He walked out of the bushes, and I was startled to see that he was not such creature that I had ever seen (and believe me, I have seen the strangest creatures to ever walk the earth). He had the head of a bird, with a long neck and four paws on which it walked like a dog. Rather that a feathery tail, there was two dog tails surrounded by a plume of fiery feathers. What was even more curious was four stones that seemed to float around this creature’s neck. Each pulsed with a strange light that seemed to emanate from the middle of the stone.
Whenever this creature went, any animal that it passed seemed to bow its head to this fascinating creature. I could feel the greatness of this creature from my tree.
I pulled out my sketchbook at once and began to draw this creature for which I had no name. He reminded me of what us humans think a phoenix looks like.
I watched for an hour or so, and he didn’t seem to see me, though I think he might’ve turned his head slightly in my direction.



I returned to the forest at the same time the next day to try and see the creature again.
He appeared from the same spot he had the day before, and walked away to a place I didn’t know. I wondered if I should follow him, but decided against it. With wild animals, you must be careful when approaching. So, I watched and waited for return, but it was getting dark and I needed to get home. Tomorrow, I will return.



It has been three days since I have written, and for those three days, I have watched and waited for the creature, only to see him leave his home and return again. It was getting dark, so I decided to leave. I scrambled down from my tree and turned to fix my backpack, which had slipped off my shoulder. ---

The creature turned its graceful head and looked straight into my soul.
‘Hello, stranger,’ he said. His voice sounded like mountains moving and valleys forming. I could feel his power, and it made me feel like something special.
The creature told me he was a ‘parra’, an aviary quadrupedal species that originated from tropical areas.
It struck me that we have no knowledge of such creatures. It made me realise that there are probably other creatures that we have no idea about. Us humans think we own the earth, but really we don't know anything at all.



As I got to know him, I realised that he was lonely. He had walked this Earth for many decades, and he was the only creature of his kind. He was was a very noble creature, very kind and loving of anything and everything. He also reminded of fictional characters such as the great lion, Aslan and Dumbledore from Harry Potter.
Igneous was very wise and very calm in the face of danger.

When I asked his name, he replied ‘I have many names but if you must require one, you may call me Igneous.’
Igneous was very respectful of everything and always found the best in everyone. As we became more comfortable with each other, Igneous would come and sit beside me while I sketched him and he told me many stories.
One, in which I must share with you. How he came about.

'When the Universe came to, and all the elements were created, each made a creature. Fire made the dragons and salamaders, while Air made the birds and genies, and Water made the whales and fish. All the creatures that we know of and have today were sent out into the world. The elements were finishing up when the elements of air and fire argued about who should create the next creature. Air made a angel, and told Fire that she should make the last creature. Fire made a Demon and said he should make the last creature. Earth and Water couldn't decide who should make the last creature. The universe told the elements to make the last creature together. Reluctantly, Air made a creature with the face and wings of a bird and Fire gave the creature fiery powers. Earth looked at the new creature and gave him legs. Thus, the Parras were made.'

I was fascinated by this wondrous story.

I hope you enjoyed this!
Yours Truly,

I decided to try something different for this form.
To me, Igneous wasn't a Parra that liked pizzas and skirts and trampolines. 'Dr E. Mills' is a character of mine that has my love of animals and the outdoors. She and I had a lot of fun creating this form, and I hope you get to enjoy it too!
All this work is by me C;
~Purple

You showed a lot of effort, and I love the set up. It helps get attached to the character rather than just learning about it. I did notice you did not have the main thread marked.

Any plans for halloween?:
Cheshire's plans: I'm doing a broken porcelain doll this year! I'm really excited!
Mora's plans: Probably stay indoors and hand out candy when I'm feeling like it. After about 9:30,
I'll come back in and read a book in front of the fireplace.

I loved him like fire
But no attention was payed
To my broken heart


Likes: Chocolate, warm summer nights, fireplaces, the stars, lighting bugs,
reading, classical and rock music, swimming,
nighttime

Dislikes: When people sneak up behind her, loud noises, being alone,
small spaces, cheeseburgers, cats,
getting angry



And a little history:
Mora is a very kind and loving Parrapup. She loves to read and sleep. Mora has trust issues but tries to be nice to everyone she encounters.
Her all time favorite thing to do is go out on a warm summer night and catch fireflies.
She loves her family very much and has always been a daddy's girl. She has an older brother and younger sister and they get along pretty well except for the occasional sibling fight. She extremely dislikes it when her brother calls her Polar Bear because he has always made fun of her by saying she has polar bear legs. Her mom says she loves that about her and that's what makes her so cute so it doesn't bother her as much now.
She always tries very hard not to get angry at anyone because that's when her wings come out and she looses control. She can't think and she definitely isn't herself. She hates scaring anyone so she always tries to suppress that part of her.
She grew up in a wonderful community of wild Parrapups when she was younger but decided to try and find a human to hang out with when she got old enough. Since then she has been on a very long adventure to find the perfect human.
Finally, after many moons of searching, she has found the right one.


Backstory on the Stones:
She hasn't always had the burden of carrying Firestones. When she was born, she had the special gift of reading auras. She could always tell when her parents were stressed in hard times or joyous in good. Her parents worried about her though because they didn't want anyone to find out and take her away.
One day when she was still young, she slipped out of the house while her mother was cooking dinner. She decided to go down to the river and play around for a bit. When she got there though, there was a beautiful young woman laying by the water. Mora decided to sneak closer to investigate and when she got close enough to see, she realized the woman was fatally wounded. She gasped softly and hesitantly walked closer. The woman turned her head towards her and smiled gently, "I have been waiting for you."
Mora was confused but stepped out of the tree line and towards the river.
"Do not be afraid, child," the woman said, her voice smooth as silk, "Nothing will harm you."
Mora padded up to the woman and looked at her hesitantly, flinching from the pain and sorrow in the woman's aura.
"I am Nisha and I have been searching for you for a very long time. You are the chosen one, my child," Nisha smiled sadly and gave a slight cough, "Listen close for I only have a short while on this earth."
Mora nodded and sat to listen obediently but the feeling that something was wrong was still gnawing at her stomach.
"You have been chosen to keep 4 of the remaining 8 Firestones. There are two others like you. It is a great burden to carry but it will be easier for you since you were chosen."
Mora nodded hesitantly and the woman coughed, grabbing Mora's front leg gently. The woman grinned and Mora flinched slightly, sudden unease flooding her. Flames of heat licked up her leg from where the woman was touching her and she whimpered softly, frozen in place.
"And now that I have you, child, I shall pass this curse on to you. Use it wisely and you will remain in control, abuse your power and they will control you," Mora felt a sharp pain tear through her back and heard the woman laugh evilly before passing out.
When Mora woke up, only a pool of blood and ash was left of the woman. She shivered and stood to look at her reflection in the eerily calm stream. She gasped when she saw flames atop her head like a crown and four small stones floating above her back. Just like the woman had said, Mora was now the keeper of the last remaining Firestones.

I always look for a bit more detail with likes and dislikes because those can be helpful, but it's better to have flavor text with them, though I did enjoy reading the history and story of the stones! Sadly, I could not find where you marked the main thread.

Username: Coradrawa

Name: Strix

Meaning behind name: Rukh is a mythological bird of prey--Strix, in the Ancient Roman and Greek legends was a bird of ill omen, product of metamorphosis(transformation), that fed on human flesh and blood. The name, in Greek, means "owl". They are birds with a long golden beak that they use to suck the blood of infants, their favorite victim. They also have wings, usually red, and four black legs, all with clawed feet. Their eyes are yellow and round, without pupils.
Strix's are also my favourite mythological bird which is tied with the Phoenix, Roc and Griffin.

Gender: This Parrapup happened to be born not male nor female! So Strix is usually called 'he' or 'she' but never 'it' out of respect to the bird. ( So I will be switching between 'he' and 'she' while I write X3 )

Song: WARNING! Get your tissues ready T0T This song is to sad!

Personalty: Strix usually avoids strangers and rarely even gives people a glance. She constantly pushes people away out of fear that they will see the true her. Because underneath all her harsh comments and mean body language...Strix just wants to cry.
This bird had suffered many things in her life, like the death of the child she was so close to (explained in 'worst memory'). This bird just needed an owner who would make Strix happy and not a sad, alone bird. But now she is only really happy when she is snuggled in a blanket next to Fire, chewing on a red bouncy ball.
( If I heard this backstory I would probably say 'I'm adopting this bird right now like it or not! And then cuddle that buurrd X3 )
( Also you might find the red bouncy ball a bit sad when you read 'Worst Memory' )

Likes: Strix loves his red bouncy ball which you might suspect to bring back bad memories but only brings back the good memories he had with that girl. He also adores his little red blanket that Fire cuddles him up in. And he adores nectarines, there is nothing this bird won't do for nectarines. And of course, he loves Fire, the person who stuck next to Strix and helped him heal his wounds.

Dislikes: Baths, showers, water, in fact, anything that involves water Strix can't stand. No one exactly knows why and it makes Fire's job really difficult when Strix keeps flying up the chimney and coming back down completely black with soot. He also hates Fire when Fire is holding the hose to wash him or water her plants.

Favourite Colour: she loves the orange-ish colour of nectarines and blue!

Favourite Food: Beware all nectarine lovers, this bird is gonna scoff the lot!

Best Friend: Fire! ( As in the person and not actual fire )

Best Memory: Strix's best memory would be one that happened very recently. After a long time of waiting to be adopted and returned to the adoption centre to many times to count, a girl called Fire came in and adopted Strix. She cared for Strix so well that he almost forgot about the death of the child he was so close to and his wounds began to heal.

Worst Memory:Strix's worst memory till haunts her. When Strix was just a fledgling (1 year old) when she was adopted by a girl who was 11 years old. Strix spent two years of her life with this girl and they were both nuts over each other. They both went everywhere together and the little girl insisted Strix had her own place at the table (which the girl's parents found hilarious but allowed it anyway).
The girl even found a shop one day selling something called 'fire stones' which the girl bought and gave to Strix as a present. That's how she got her stones.
But one day an accident happened. Strix and the girl were walking down the street, no parents around, the girl was throwing a red bouncy ball up and down when her ball suddenly bounced off towards the street. The girl ran into the street to get her ball but, a truck came and ran her over before anyone could help.
Her parents couldn't care for Strix and sent the bird away to be adopted. Many adopted this bird but then returned the bird, most comments of her were 'She never seems happy at my home' or 'She's avoiding me all together'.

Short Story:
Fire brushed back her long green hair as she ate her sandwich. Her blue eyes flickered to were Strix was, happily munching the just-bought nectarines. " Well get fat you know Strix " Fire said, a smile appearing on her face as the bird only glanced up at her with his eyes.
Fire finished her sandwich and stood up as she wondered over to a small blue notepad which had the picture of a glass bottle drifting in the ocean. She liked to imagine there was a message in the bottle and it contained someone's wish or a secret no one must find out. Smiling to herself, Fire opened up the notepad and flicked through the pages until todays date appeared. She looked through what she had to do for the day.
1) Water plants and put on fertilizer--Keep Strix AWAY from your plum tree
2) Tie Strix down in the bath and wash that bird!

Fire smiled and re-read the second thing. She shut the notepad and stretched. Time to use the plan she hoped would get Strix in the bath.
" I'm just going to be in the bathroom " Fire told Strix, even though the silly bird probably wasn't listening to her.
But it turned out Strix was. He raised his head to stare at Fire wearily. Clearly her brain was saying 'are you going to wash me?'
Fire raised her hands in defence. " Don't worry! " she giggled. " I'm just going to have a bath for myself "
Fire walked into the bathroom and began running the hot water tap, now and then adding cold water so it wasn't scolding hot. She then picked up the bottle of Bubbles and squirted a lot in until the bathtub was overflowing with steaming bubbles.
Clapping her hands together happily, Fire quickly sprinted to her room to find her fishing net, she would need it.
Once everything was prepared. Fire hid behind the doorway into the bathroom, net at the ready.
" Strix! " Fire called down the hallway. " Fetch my towel please! "
Fire had been attempting a lot to reach Strix that. Sometimes you forgot your towel so you trained Strix to recognise the command and bring your towel into the bathroom for you. He also got nectarines as a reward.

Back at the kitchen. Strix raised her long neck and recognised the command and the promise of more nectarines. Standing up. The fiery looking bird sprinted to the stairs before quickly climbing up. Strix darted into the towel cupboard and grabbed a beach towel, not seeing the difference of a beach towel and a bath towel apart from a beach towel was prettier.
Strix then began walked towards the bathroom door, looking very proud of herself.
But as soon as that silly bird walked into the bathroom, Fire took action. She dropped the fishing net on Strix who instantly started putting up a fight.
Keeping the net down, Fire reached under it with one hand before releasing the fishing net and grabbing Strix with both hands. She held the squirming bird out in front of her as though Strix had rolled in dung.
Reaching the bathtub, Fire plunged the bird in before grabbing a soft sponge and beginning the wash the complaining bird.

After an hour or so, Fire allowed the soggy bird to come out. The sight of Strix being so wet and upset like a wet cat caused Fire to laugh. Picking up the beach towel Strix had brought before. Fire began rubbing down the bird. Strix only put up with being towelled down because she knew it meant he would be less wet!
Once Strix considered her body as dry as it could be, he strutted back downstairs and carried on munching nectarines.
A normal day...in a way...

Might add some more later ^_^

The first thing I noticed was how blocky most of the text looked? Even just small pictures to go with off google make it less intimidating to read. However, you have very nice writing and it's very cute. A little more development of character would be great though. Overall, you had very cute ideas that were humorous in some places!

Thanks Beatnik for your feedback!
I don't think I posted it, but I do actually have the main thread marked!
I do wish I had time to finish my form though :C

*peeks in very shyly*
So um, When is the winner going to be announced?

[Beatnik]

It's between Ember and Eyvindr.. I really can't decide between you two. ;w; It's rather a tie, and I'm thinking of maybe a short story as a tie-breaker. My judges for Parrapups all seem to have deserted and it makes this very difficult with them gone. If I do decide to give you both a tie-breaker, it will be just a story, max of 500 or so words. Both will be judged by an anonymous person (One not on CS) and whoever she prefers gets the parra, and the RU receives a full custom for their runner up. It is such a hard decision to make when both of you have outstanding forms. //w\\

[Eyvindr]

ohh, what would the short story be about?
also what would the runner up be?
Im curious XD

[Ember the Wolf]

Ooh. Pay. Would it have to be a Halloween story or just a story?

[Beatnik]

Runner up is a full custom. =w= You get to choose hair, colors, patterns, etc. You can even hire outside artist to design the parra if you'd like. Basically, you get to design your own parra or let an artist do it. Only catch is that it can't have huge body edits like extra limbs, tails, heads, etc. Of course you can have plenty of edits, but maybe not like a longer neck.

The story would not really be halloween based, but you could make it that. The only rules would be cs appropriate and then 500 words or less.

Congrats to both of you so far, and good luck in the stories!
Also Beatnik, does anyone else get runner ups or little prizes for their efforts?

P.S. Happy Halloween!
