unlike his brother, the myth about Orthos isnt as exciting: he gua
rded an island of cattle and eventually slain by Hercules (like
his brother lol). and so this competition will be a bit different. he
needs something exciting and unique to him, no more being kno
wn as ' oh yeeaa, youre Cerberus' brother!' please see below for
further details!

Item: Collar - but in his eye color & dark brown hues - maybe with a tassel or two hanging from it
What about this event have you enjoyed? The theme - and of course all of the stunning drafts - mythology is always fascinating and the creation of six different myths into draft form with their own stories and unique looks was spectacular. It is like the myths came to life in a creative way with their looks based on their myths but also with an added twist to make them special. I especially loved the theme because all of my drafts are named after different mythology tales. ♥
What is something I can fix to make it more enjoyable? Nothing ♥ - I personally enjoyed every little bit of this themed event as is, including all six of the stunning drafts and the limit only being able to win one.

Barn Name: Orthos
Item: A snake wrapped around his tail, to represent Orthos's snake tail. If it can't be an 'animal', then maybe make it a plushie on his back, or around his neck?
What about this event have you enjoyed? The beautiful drafts for sure! I know I haven't really been around lately, but I really love these styles, and the colours and how you've illustrated the myths in each and every one. I actually love most though the little stories and flavour text you've added, and awesome ideas to win one. Also, love that 'only win one' rule.
What is something I can fix to make it more enjoyable? Nothing specific- I would say prefer no 'art only' comps in future, because I am not very good at drawing, and it means I can't enter at all, but that's a personal thing for me, and not necessarily something that needs to change. It was just sad for me to know there's no alternative- he was my favourite. XD

Item: Kairos's braid in his tail is not fixed with just a string - an oversized rattlesnake skull holds it with its teeth, the jaws firmly clamped together by a blood red ribbon.
What about this event have you enjoyed? I caught only the tail end of it, but I love mythology (especially mythical animals), so being able to go for the Nemean Lion and Orthos is a treat! :D I also loved that there weren't any competitions that demanded art... I can't always get my artistic ability to cooperate with me.
What is something I can fix to make it more enjoyable? Something like games or an activity or two might be a good idea for the future, though I can't say I would have been able to participate in that part of the event this time around. xD It looks like it was a pretty chill event, right as people are between vacations and summer classes and getting ready for school again, so I'd say that it was very enjoyable as it was. c:

Show Name: Ypéfthynos tis Erythrías (Greek, Warden of Erytheia, which was the isle Orthos guarded cattle upon.)
Barn Name: Orthos
Item: Not exactly greek, but an ancient Roman soldier's sidearm, the Pugio came to mind for this fellow. It's a type of dagger used by Roman soldiers, so it's smaller than a sword would be; it could easily be outfitted in a scabbard around a limb, rather than belted at the waist or barrel. I made a simple sketch myself, but here are some references I found appealing here, here, and here (I used this as reference for my sketch, lol.).I believe it would be better if he had a simpler scabbard, rather than an ornate one due to the status that being no more than a guard for cattle would prove to the societies of ancient Greeks and Romans compared to higher ranking peoples. I'm happy to leave it up to you how ornate or simple you'd like to make it if chosen. <3
What about this event have you enjoyed? I, like everyone above, love the mythology factor! Greek myths are well known across the globe, after all! But, also, I really, really enjoyed seeing your portrayals for each myth you chose! The Nemean Lion is one of my fave mythological beasts, and your visualiaztion onto the Raj is just astounding! This goes for each and every myth you embodied, they truly are beautiful. The chance to apply for any creation is wonderful!
What is something I can fix to make it more enjoyable? It was already wonderful all around, really! But, to get more involvement with those who felt unable to participate as well as those who did as a bonus, perhaps during another little mini event small raffles could be held; ones that give out Kion or items, or breedings with a small addition that you decide upon. (Similar to how you've added the pictograph markings on Orthos and Cerberus, etc.) You could have multiple options of such raffles, so you aren't leaving anyone out but are also making things fair, such as one raffle for anyone to join while the event is ongoing, one raffle for anyone who entered but was unable to win after the adopt comps have been judged, and another for only people who are unable to join in on the event due to time constraints or those that feel they are unable to participate due to quality and such. c: Just some more interaction, essentially, people really seem to enjoy having interactive chances to join with little things. <3
