*~~Why are would you like to adopt it~~*

I can't believe it, this one is so beautiful. I'm really interested to adopt this one, since it will be my final last time trying for a while, I got lucky to find this really beautiful pup. I just wanted to say, this is no piece of trash, its a huge piece of treasure, I'm not lying, You are amazing, seriously, This is amazing! I really want one of these, it sounds so fun to own one. TWG90 made these perfect, the story line and all. I'm speechless on how amazing they are, but Azalea is simply amazing. I didn't pick out the coolest pup, or the most wanted, I picked the just right pup that fits me the best. I was really devastated I haven't won one of these yet, but I know I will if I keep trying. I keep getting a very good place for adopting these, and so I'd like to adopt this one. Her markings amaze me a lot, because of how well they were made, and how every color balances to make a perfect warrior beauty. This one has just struck my heart, and I'd like to try for her. I want to use it in the role play, and put her in my signature as a character. I already have the perfect armor for her, that's why I have to try for her, or let my perfect armor go to waste, but I know it won't, because its Azalea's.

*~~Write a short story for it -One of Azalea's adventures-~~*

Azalea chased after Savannah, sprinting threw the bushes. Azalea huffed "Slow down Kit, and where we going?" she demanded, breathing as hard as she could, jogging to Savannah's side.
Savannah turned to give Azalea a wide grin "You'll see" she snickered, turning to face the trail she was following, slowing her pace. Azalea, still working her lungs full strength, sighed in relief of Savannah slowing "It better not be a total waste, where we going?" Azalea growled shoving Savannah in the side. Savannah turned to shot her a look "OK, I said you will see, don't ask me again" she growled trotting quicker. Azalea sighed, then grinned, and looked at Savannah "Where are we going" she asked again, this time snickering as a joke. Savannah turned sharply "That's it!" she barked rushing into Azalea. Azalea squealed and playfully tugged at Savannah's ear. Savannah giggled and let Azalea to her feet "Alright, don't make me tackle you again" she joked running back toward where she was headed. Azalea frowned slowly, and got up, sprinting after Savannah. Azalea finally caught up "What abou-" she was too late to finish, Savannah covered her muzzle "We are here" she giggled letting go. Azalea frowned "I'm sure my mom is worried, don't you remember the way back?" she asked, rubbing her paw against the ground doubtfully. Savannah turned towards Azalea "Yeah, yeah, sure I do" she replied, obviously not listening.
Azalea sighed and walked after Savannah. She walked around Savannah standing there, looking as if she was about to fall. Azalea turned her head from the fox to the beauty ahead. She took a step closer, there was a beautiful sparkling white pond, with blue Cattails surrounding the edges, shifting back and forth in the soft breeze. She ran at the pond, making some white herons fly gracefully up into the sunset of the sky, making Azalea gasp in amazement. She looked at the pond, her eyes following the koi fish darting away into the deepest part of the pond. The sunset glittered at the surface of the pond, reflecting off of its shine. Azalea looked back at Savannah "So what is this place" she asked, her voice shaking.
Savannah walked up to her side "I-I don't know" she answered, sitting down, biting her lip. Azalea turned to face her "You don't know how to get back home, do you?..." she asked sighing. Savannah shook her head "I'm sure Tira won't be mad...". Azalea was furious now "Well, yeah, she is mad! I left without telling her, and wondering off to a place that I don't even know what, or how to get back home" she hissed, kicking a stone into the pond, making water ripples scattered around.
Savannah sighed "Hopefully Daisy will find us" she said blankly, staring at the blinding sun. Azalea snorted and turned away "I didn't even tell Daisy" she grumbled. For a while, no one spoke a word, only the soft rustle of the wind blowing grass was heard. Azalea turned her head to the sky "Well, we better try to find our scents and follow them back" she said sighing. Savannah finally lifted her head "OK" she mumbled. Azalea watched her "Before we go, lets name this place" she said smiling. Savannah smiled and got up "Alright, how bout' Azavan?" she asked. Azalea nodded "Perfect" she giggled. They both walked away from their found paradise, but then, small gusts of cold wind blew at them. Savannah shivered "I-I think a storm is coming" she whispered. Azalea nodded "Daisy!" she called, literally jumping around "Please!" she called, devastated. Savannah nudged her "Com' on, we should go" she whispered softly.
Azalea sprinted, following the faded scent of themselves, small, faded paw prints laid in the mud. She sniffed the ground and kept going. Savannah ran ahead "I-I think we are close!" she barked. Azalea turned toward her, small rain drops danced threw the clouds and onto her face "What makes you so sure?" she asked softly. Savannah closed her eyes "I-I hear cooing of Daisy!" she barked opening her eyes in a flash. Azalea nodded quickly "I do too!" she squealed, running forward, into the think underbrush. Savannah ran out after her to see a small Dove, cuddled up with Azalea's soft fur. Azalea smiled, letting Daisy onto her back "Lets go, we are very close" she whispered, walking forward. Savannah stopped her "Please don't tell Tira I made you come so far" she whimpered softly. Azalea gave her an annoyed look, but she nodded, with a small grin "Alright, I swear" she whispered, pushing the gooseberry bush with her head, opening a wide opening to a valley. Azalea grinned "I'm home" she cried, running down toward Tira. She jumped at her turned back "Well, Azalea, were where you?" she asked, a small frown on her face. Azalea tried to hide a smirk "Um, we were caught by Karonadors,..". "Azalea, tell me the truth" she said scornfully. Azalea lowered her head "Me and Savannah, well, sorta went off away for a bit" she whimpered. Tira looked up, seeing Savannah run into the bush with her mother, and some other kits "Alright, lets get inside" she said softly. Azalea smiled "OK, but sometime, let go back to Azavan" she giggled. Tira smiled "You have a wild mind, Azalea" she said nudging her into the den. Azalea walked inside, followed by her other two siblings. She sighed and laid down next to to dens entrance, watching the rain start to pour down. She nuzzled Daisy softly, getting comfortable. Azalea watched her mother race into the den, holding a struggling pup. She set it down and sighed "Well, Azalea, you alright?" she asked. Azalea nodded "Yeah" she said picking up her wooden armor, made from elm wood bark. Azalea jumped around, watching Daisy as she tackled the walls. Her mother Tira nudged her "Now Now, Azalea, Your going to make a fine warrior, why don't you go to sleep? And think about it tomorrow?" she suggested. She sighed and laid down "OK" she whispered closing her eyes, until she was asleep, dreaming peacefully.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

*~~Any Thing Else? ~~*

Azalea's armor is very unique. Her armor is made of Collard Dove Feathers. It has gold color, and with a Blue crystal by her forehead, and on her armor back. It has sharp metal claws at her feet, and red ribbons flow everywhere from it. But they always seem to flow behind her, and never usually get in her way when fighting. They call her armor 'Dove' because it has no scratches, and seems gentle, but trust nothing, she fights harshly, but never talks at the attacker.

Name: Amikara Pronunciation: (Ami-ka-r-a)

Gender: female

Why are would you like to adopt it:

I think the WOI is an amazing creation. I would love to be apart of them. Taking part in something like this is very cool, and it allows me to have something to look forward to. Not only that but the design and majestic look of all the WOI is amazing, I would love to obtain one of these. Plus I can't come up with designs for the life of me, so this would give me a chance to have a beautiful and meaningful not only fursona, but something to draw and feel included in, like a group. I have all ways wanted to take part in something as special as this and I think this is my chance. I just fell in love with Amikara when I first sow her, I am glad I didn't get the other one because this one is more eye popping. I only wish I new she was mine, but I am SO grateful that I can try to get a WOI. I wont want them just because of the popularity, but for the beautiful and amazing creation by TWG90. It would make my day to have Amikara to call my own. If I don't get her, I wish only the best happiness for who gets her and everyone of them! Good luck to all!

Write a short story for it:

Amikara walked through the underbrush. Looking for a quick bite. She was malnourished due to the pack, they haven't found any food, in weeks. She licked her lips. Feeling the left-over crusted blood come off of her chin and enter her mouth. Her claws dug into the dirt as it seemed to rise around her frail body. She leaned down closer to the earth. Her tail swayed back and forth. And her jaws opened wide, exposing all of her white teeth. She lowered her front legs, Amikara's paws shook, faster and faster as she settled into the ground. Becoming one with the earth. She spotted a little fawn, grazing right next to her. It looked so juicy, so tender, like she could all ready feel the warm flesh inside her mouth. She was panting know, the heat would slow her down if she didn't get to the fawn soon. Her orange eyes darted back and forth, from the fawns neck, to her shaking paws. Then she bolted, her hind-legs rose her into the air. Her jaws opened even wider, spit flinging out of her jaws. She was ready to kill this fawn. Her front legs stretched down so all of her nails were exposed. One blink and she was on the fawn. It let out a bleat, a cry for its mother. But know one was there, they left his fawn to die. Amikara sunk her huge K9's into the fawns neck. She could feel the rush of blood enter her mouth. It felt good, like she was given life all over again. The fawn fell limp in between her mouth and she gratually looked around. Making sure know one sow her miraculous kill. A smile grew upon her face and she walked out of the little clearing and into the pack territory. There it smelled of the leaders Rayo, and Soraya. She new everyones sent. Each and everyone of them. It was a gift that she was blessed with. Well most of them could smell good, but she new everyone's individual sent. She dropped the meat and lay down next to it. Licking her lips once more, then she tore into the little fawn. It tasted to good. Like a thousand pieces of candy only it was meat. Her tail uncontrollably thumped against the ground, wagging. Amikara devoured all of the meat and enjoyed every bit of it. Until there was nothing left but bones she walked over to her den. She walked down through one of the tunnels in the little area she called her's and lay down. Resting her working body and taking a nap. She was grateful for the food she found and the day she had.

Name: Sylos (Sigh-lohs)
Gender: Male
Why are would you like to adopt it: I've been waiting a little bit now for another WOI litter to come out, and when I saw this one I practically jumped for joy. I was looking at the puppies, and, while the other two are indeed great, this little guy just kind of struck home. His colors all complement each other well, and, which amazes me, they are actuall my preferred colors for anything canid.

I love the WOI idea in general, it's just...speechless! I've wanted to make something like as soon as I noticed it, but I couldn't do it, as I'd feel more than a little unoriginal. A wolf species, wears armor, fights, yep...WOI is pretty much one of the most amazing thing's I've layed eyes upon. Though I doubt I'm good enough, the thought of managing to adopt anyone what-so-ever has me running around in circles!

And, while I would be beyond happy to have any puppy, this one in particular is just...hard to explain! I love the design, it seems to give the little guy a personality all on it's own, I mean, I saw it and I immediatly think; "That's it, that's the one!"

Write a short story for it:
The soft, robin-egg blue of the grass lazily shifted under my paws. My slow creep disturbed the longer stocks around me, but just barley. It was in my sights, my prey. It paused, then continued, not concerned with the silly creature stalking it...if only it knew...

There! Haunches thrusting back, the rest of me shot forwards. My front paws stretched out infront of me, magenta eyes fixed on my prey, mine! Quickly dropping my forlegs down, I used the momentum to throw me into a spin, in which I thrust my head up...jaws open...yes!

I tumbled side ways, my spin throwing me off a bit, but it didn't matter. Nothing else in the world mattered right now, I'd caught my prey!

"Sylos?" one of my siblings, I didn't exactly care which, watched me curiously, "what are you doing?" I opened my jaws to reply, but sadly, my fangs hadn't quite made it into the catch, and it fluttered before my eyes for a split second before quickly disapearing into the sky, "why are you eating butterflies?"

Ignoring my sibling, I trotted to the nearest hill, the very crest, so that I could watch. The reddish mountains stayed so still, blue tinted grass riffled as a soft, summer breeze riffled it. I inhaled slowly, let the scents of wild flowers, of birds, of other warriors, fill my nostrils, fill my soul.

And then, I listened. Past the sweet song of the sparrow, the low howl of the wind, the soft squeals of other pups at play, I could hear them. Other warriors, those who'd I'd grow up to be like, to fight beside, they were fighting now. I breathed in harder, almost tasting the copper roll over my tongue as I took them, those who dare challenge us, by the hundreds.

My tail softly thumped on the ground, I let myself back to the lazy summer day of reality. For now I would have to settle with the scuffles with my current foe, the light white butterfly drifted past me, practically begging me to try again. And I would, I would until I caught it and killed it, and then I'd eat it, or rather, I smirked to myself, I'd spit it out and complain of how nasty insects tasted. A soft, dreamy sigh escaped my slightly parted maw, for now.

Wow! I really hope this form is good enough, I finished the first picture! I'll try to get one more picture in! I've also added an armor concept :3

Holy cow, why wouldn't I want to adopt one? WoI are a limited species, and let me just say they are amazing. I love the whole concept of the armor and the plot with the kronadors - very well thought out. Anyways, I specifically chose #3 because he was the most appealing to me of all of them. I just saw him, and a character started to form in my mind.

Number of the Pup: 1

Name: Nairi Gender: Female

Nairi is an ancient Armenian name meaning land of canyon or rivers. She is so named for the serpentine blue marking that runs down her sides which reminds me of a river dividing two planes of color.

Why would you like to adopt it?

I just recently stumbled upon WOI when the new RP opened up. I happened to see the thread and clicked on it and was immediately impressed and wanted to join. But lo and behold, only people who own an WOI can join! Thus, when I saw this thread and that there were puppies for adoption, I just had to have one. Puppy #1 or Nairi as I would like to call her, just speaks to me for some reason. The blend of colors and her gentle warm eyes are absolutely beautiful! I am also quite fond of the ideas of yin and yang and the marking on her shoulder reminds me of that as well.

Art:
Nairi With Armor


Nairi Without Armor

I must admit, replicating her beautiful markings was quite the challenge!

Write a short story for it:

Nairi awoke, warm and comfortable, snuggled between her still sleeping brothers. She yawns and gets up, struggling her way out of the puppy pile so that she can stretch her legs. Squinting in the dimness of her red-rock den, her tiny nose twitches as she scents the air. Humm, where's mum? Did I sleep that late? Nairi thinks, not seeing Tira anywhere in their comfortable little home. Her orange eyes glitter with worry for a moment, before she remembers what day it is. Now bubbling with excitement, she bounds over to her brothers, nipping at a tan-furred ear and rolling the other one over exposing a sable colored belly. "Wake up! Wake up!" She barks, her voice dripping with anticipation, but her brothers are slow to get up and her patience runs out. Ug, how can they sleep like that when today is the first day we get to go down to the falls? Mum even said that if we get up early enough, she would take us to see the canyon! She thinks, pausing for a moment to scratch behind one ebon ear with her back paw. Whatever that is anyway... Seeing that neither of her lazy brothers have gotten up yet, she lets out a little wuff of frustration and then yips over to them. "Well, you guys can sleep all 'ya want, I'm going out to find Mom!" With that, Nairi leaps up the red earthen entrance to their den and out into the early morning sunlight that has just begun to wink past the snow capped mountain tops.

There are other Warriors here, going about their business or just sitting and chatting, waiting for the coming sun. Behind her, the redish mountains rise up into the sky, still shading the dens and the plains of cool blue grass waving beyond. Nairi takes in a deep breath, smelling the mist of morning that will soon give way to a nice sunny summer day. Tira is nowhere to be seen and the little pup takes a few more tentative steps away from the den before she spots Odisseu. "Father!" Nairi calls out, happy to see him. It is not often that she has the pleasure of being with Dad, as he is often out hunting and helping to provide for their pack. None the less though, Odisseu is by far Nairi's favorite wolf. In her young eyes, he is the strongest, fastest, smartest and kindest wolf who ever lived. The one that Nairi hopes above all else to be like when she grows up. Tail wagging like a leaf caught in a thunderstorm, Nairi bounds over to Odisseu and looks up at him, beaming. He smiles back and reaches down, giving her a lick on the top of the head. "Good morning Nairi. Are you ready to go? Your mom has gone ahead to find a good path down the rocks, so I'll lead us all down to the falls today." Odisseu says in his lovely baritone voice, then looks behind her, back at the den. "What have you done with your brothers?" He asks with a little chuckle. Just as Nairi opens her mouth to answer, she is suddenly bowled over by her little tan brother. The pups roll between their father's legs and tussle for a moment before Odisseu sticks his nose between them, breaking up their play. "Alright now, save your strength." He says, smiling again. "You'll need it on the way back. It's always harder climbing back up than it is getting down." With that, Odisseu scoops up the sable pup who has only just emerged, giving him a free ride for a few moments as the little family sets of down the trail towards the waterfall.

Nairi follows, running full speed to keep up with her father's gentle loping gate. She is completely content to be going anywhere with Odisseu, no matter how fast her little legs have to move to keep up. It is not long before they pass out of the familiar hollow that makes up their pack's camp and out into the unknown world. Tira had told her many things about what lays beyond camp, especially the waterfall. I can't wait to see it! Nairi thought as she scrambled over yet another red boulder and through a bush whose blue leaves left her fur scented with mint. Mom says it is more water than I have ever seen, all crashing down into the earth and out to the plains. It is not long before Odisseu stops, his nose to the ground. Curious, Nairi runs up with her brothers and they all imitate him, sniffing the ground. Odisseu looks down at his children, letting them work at it for a moment before asking: "So, can you tell which way mother went? We need to follow her." Excited by the test, Nairi puts her nose back down to the ground and spins in a circle, trying to get her bearings, but her sable brother already has the scent and pips up. "This way! She went down between the standing stones!" He says, and Odisseu nods, "That's right! Now you three lead the way, and I'll follow. Just be careful!"

Only a little bit disappointed that she wasn't the first to pick up the trail, Nairi hops down the rocks with her brothers, looking back occasionally to see that her father is still following. It is a difficult trail with many rocks and difficult jumps from one side to the other. Especially for pups with short little legs, but when you have endless amounts of energy and the excitement of something new to drive you onward, the trip seems much shorter. Suddenly, Nairi comes up short, a sound has begun to fill the air, a roar like a wolf the size of a mountain snarling just beyond the next bend. Her ears wilt back to the sides of her head and she stares wide eyed at the next turn as her brothers eagerly continue on and disappear. A short little whine of indecision and fear escapes her lips just as Odisseu catches up to her. "Come on Nairi, it's not far now. Do you hear that? That noise is the falling water!" He says as Nairi stares up at him in wonder before scrambling after her siblings. She hops up and over one last rock and climbs out of the little boulder field they had traveled down and nearly walks into the backside of her tan sibling. She looks up, the noise is deafening now but she hardly even notices as her mouth goes slack. Just ahead of her is an enormous wall of water, crashing down from the mountains, foaming and frothing with flotsam and smashing itself to mist on merciless red rocks. It is only after several minutes of staring that she notices her mother, standing over by the water and dwarfed by the enormous falls. Smiling at her pup's amazement, her tail wags in welcome.

After finally overcoming their amazement, the pups look at each other, grinning, then bolt off into the valley. They play for what seems like hours, tussling in the soft moss that grows where the mists fall to the earth at the base of the waterfall. They bound through the cold waters and wade into the surprisingly calm backwaters only a few hundred feet from the crashing falls. Nairi soon discovers a slimy green creature that would hop away from her nose every time she tried to sniff it. It's peculiar movement perked up her hunter's instinct and she had only just begun to stalk it, slinking low into the reeds near the river's edge, when her mother padded up silently next to her. "Nairi, your father told me that you were the first one up today." She says, in a soft voice. Nairi looks up to her and nods, her prey splashing into the water in escape. "Good." Tira says, a little smile forming on her face. "Come with me then, I have something special to show my pups and I want you to be the first to see it." Nairi nods and follows as her mother leads her away, her fine hunters paws only making a whisper of noise as they walk out of the reeds and follow the river down stream.

Tira leads Nairi downstream for quite a ways and soon the rocks from the mountain begin to recede and are instead replaced with blue grass, that ripples with silver as the wind blows it flat. Nairi pauses to nibble some soft blue-green shoots, savoring the strange bitter-sweet taste of it, before running off to catch up with her mother. As they travel, the grass becomes thicker and the land flatter and flatter until they pass out of the little valley and out into the open plains. For quite awhile, Nairi just stands and stares at the sights around her, the huge vastness of sky above her and the never ending ocean of grass makes the little black pup feel very small indeed. Tiria presses onwards, leaving the pup to catch up once again after her amazement passes. She eventually stops at a point where it seems the river disappears behind a little hill, Tiria stands on top of it, silhouetted against the sky and looking down the other side. When Nairi finally catches up, she can hardly believe the vista that awaits her. At his place, the river disappears over the edge of another vertical cliff and crashes down into an enormous gouge in the earth. Growing up on the mountainside, Nairi is thankfully saved from the vertigo that claims many who look into such a sudden impossibly vertical landscape but is wonder-struck none the less. The rocks walls of the canyon fall down out of the plains, their striped vastness narrowing as they descend until there is room only for the river and it's winding course at the bottom. Looking into the distance, she can see spires and strange arches of rock rising up from the river, some large enough to nearly bridge the gorge's walls.

The awestruck pup looks up at her mother and asks "Momma, who made this? Is it to keep the river from escaping?" Tiria chuckles and lays down in the grass to be closer to her pup. "No Nairi, the river made this canyon." Nairi blinks, confused at how the water that is falling into this hole could possibly be the one who created it. "But... How can that be? How could water dig such a deep hole? Isn't the rock stronger than the water?" She asks, full of questions. Tiria looks down at her child and gives her a nudge with her nose. "Persistence, my dear Nairi." She says, looking at the pup who now sits looking back at her expectantly, her head tilted slightly to the left. "Water may not seem like much, but over time it wears away at the rocks, breaking them down to sand that it can wash away. Through its constant flow, it was able to carve all of this out of the rock." She pauses for a moment to look back at the gorge before continuing. "Nairi, do you remember how I told you that your name means river?" "Yes!" Nairi barks, "You said you named me that because of the blue lines on my sides." Tiria nods, "That's right. Now Nairi, I want you to remember, that you can be like this river. That there is nothing you can't do or overcome with persistence. No matter how strong your enemy is, Nairi, you can always overcome them as long as you stay true to yourself." She finishes, and licks Nairi on the face. Nairi blinks, not quite certain what to think of all this yet, but feeling pretty proud to be named after something so strong as the river that cut the canyon before her. When Tiria stands up, looking back the way they had come, Nairi looks back over her shoulder to see Odisseu and her brothers heading towards them through the tall grass. She jumps up and runs towards them, thinking: Lookout boys! Here I come and there's nothing you can do to stop me!

Name: Avatar
Gender: male
Why are would you like to adopt it: I have always liked complex designs but unable to think of any on my own, so to have one that is complex and beautiful like these one's would be wounderful. Plus I have always wanted a wolf done by a really good artist and be apart of a cool group.
Art: no armor
with armor
Note: I don't have a tablet!!
