Lantern Lights are a creature I designed. They look like cats, though slightly more wispy at ends and such, and their tail carries a lantern, always with a deep crack in it. These cats also wear a mask on their face with an expression, which varies depending on their creation's backstory, which will be explained in a moment. The cats have big, bushy tails, and the ability to float in the air, as well as emit light. These cats can have part of the light they are made up of come off, in which case the cat can be injured or start having personality problems, such as split personality, mental problems, such as insanity, or physical problems, such as not being able to preform certain tasks. But how is a Lantern Light created? They are created whenever a lantern is dropped by someone, and a crack appears. The light seeps out, and will create a Lantern Light. Depending on how the person who dropped the light was feeling before they did, the mask of the cat will reflect it. But what if two deep cracks that aren't connected appear on a lantern? You get two Lantern Lights, twins. They may never meet, they may always be with each other, but they will resemble each other and often one will be missing what the other has. One may be very athletic but not very kind, and the other the other way around. The lantern they carry around with them is the one they emerged from. Losing the lantern can cause great distress, and when a Lantern Light is a twin, they only will have half of the lantern. When ever two go to breed, the male will steal a lantern, and give it to the female. The female will then drop it, and they will most likely get one child, maybe two. They always start as a baby when they hatch from a lantern, and then they grow. They are made of light, able to solidify, and the lantern is chained to their tail. Each has a different light color depending on the mood as well.

This is the description I put on a page when I originally thought of selling the species. But, I decided not too, and so now I'd like to get a good line-art made for it. Here is what is needed, and anything with a * means bonus points. The more *'s, the more bonus points.

- the lines, of course
- each thing separate to color, so a color thing for each
- male and female signs (**)
- Adopt Me (**)
- child lines (*****)
- lantern
- half lantern (****)
- color palette (**)
- different mask expressions (*****)

I'd also like to say that yes, you can change the background if you wish. It doesn't matter, but you don't have to.

Rules
My rules are pretty simple, please follow them.

1. Follow all of Tess's rules.
2. If you win, I will credit you for the lines. But, you give me permission to use the lines on CS for what I wish. They will stay on CS, but I can have things such as auctions and such for them.
3. If an extension is needed, I will give it.
4. You must include everything that isn't bonus points.
5. If you include something that is worth bonus points, but it is done with poor quality, I will not count it as bonus.
6. Add me to color-in when you are finished, so that I can check it out.
7. I will announce when it is finished.
8. The lines you make, if you don't win, can't be used for anything else, as this is my species.
9. Please don't spam the thread up. ^^
10. Please be respectful and kind to each other!

If you can follow these, please enter!

Probably what everyone has been waiting to see- prizes! These are the official prizes, and will not be changed, unless I add onto it or make it a choice if I get more pets I'm willing to offer.

First Place!

They will get a very Rare, 2008 rat, and, if they'd like, become an official artist.

They may also pick either a rare 2008 Butterfly Wolf or an uncommon 2009 dog .

Second Place!

They will get an uncommon 2009 dog, and, if they'd like, become an official artist.

They may also get either a rare 2008 Butterfly Wolf or an uncommon 2009 dog , whichever first doesn't take.

Third Place!

They will get a rare, 2009 pony, and, if they'd like, become a guest artist, which gives them a chance to become a permanent artist.

Honorable Mention
If this were to happen, I do have something planned. But, I will not be announcing it, as I don't know if honorable mention will happen or not.

Don't say that! You'll probably do much better than I could. ^^ It's why I'm hosting a contest instead of doing it myself. XD

[j. bourne]

I'll just need to sketch it out and all that, so it may take a while ;-;

Sorry, but it won't work! ;; I'd love to let you, but as I can't do drawings that aren't on CS (I don't have the tools), so I have to turn you down.

Okay Amnesia, take your time! ^^ There's no rush!
