Why would you like the Raven?: i would like the raven because i love its design. i dont really have any rare pets to trade for it though. i love how pretty it looks and its eyes are so pretty as well!
What would you name it?: i'm not so sure what i would name it. although probably kira, or kiri because i like those names.
Why should I give you the raven? i just want the raven so it could sit pretty in my groups. i don't have many items but i would try and dress it up as well too, i'd most likely trade for some items for it tho
What is one thing you're grateful for? i am grateful for my mom. she is always there for me no matter what. she is a very kind person and i love her so much
Other: i think the raven would be mysterious and closed off. but once you get to know them they're actually a pretty kind person with a kind heart.

Why would you like the Raven?: I would love the opportunity of owning this raven because my dream is to have one of every store pet! this is one of the big ones left that I need for my collection! I only have 33 to go <3
What would you name it?: I usually name pets gifted to me after whoever gifted them to me : )
Why should I give you the raven? I'm not going to go into a big sob story but this game means a lot to me and is my little escape from reality (as I'm sure it is to so many other lovely people) this pet would really mean a lot to me <3
What is one thing you're grateful for? I'm grateful for people like yourself who are giving and caring! unfortunately that is harder and harder to come by but it is so special and I'm grateful for those who do care and are there for one another <3

Give the pet a personality, write a poem, a story, or provide some art etc.
This pet looks like a protector to me <3

Also would love to say good luck to everyone else who entered! your all so deserving <3

Why would you like the Raven?: I love all black designs and purposely, they can be part of my "unfortunate ones"
What would you name it?: Raven!
Why should I give you the raven? I love collecting pets based on design, so often this dog reminds me of fantasy.
What is one thing you're grateful for? I'm grateful for my family, my art, and those who have helped me through my tough times, telling those that says I am a nobody, prove them wrong.
Other: [Give the pet a personality, write a poem, a story, or provide some art etc.] Raven was a outcast amongst the others. They were unusual, and always hid their wings. They did had some history of doing magic, always carrying a "normal" book, that some questions on whats in it.

Let the night sky tremble, as the Dark Star shall fall.

Awake, Black Fairy, and heed my call.

Apart from the rarity of this dog and the fact that it would be an incredible addition to help me achieve my ultimate goal of a complete collection, the raven is one of my favourite pet designs on CS - I love how the artist was able to make an all-dark design look soft and mysterious at the same time. From the large, beautify wings to the little feathers poking out of the dog's mane and the pale, innocent eyes - the whole design is stunning, and it's not hard to see why so many users also feel the same way, making the raven dog one of the most coveted pets on CS.

Image
In addition, a friend recently recommended the show Once Upon A Time to me - my sister and I binged the whole show within a month - oops! But alas, it was time went spent - I love how they managed to weave the characters from different fairytales together, and not to mention the countless plot twists that kept me on the edge of my seat! I can see from your avatar you are also a fan! The design of the raven reminds me a little of multiple characters on the show: Peter Pan's shadow and Regina, but mostly the black fairy from the show. The black fairy to me was such an interesting character - she was so beautiful yet also so full of darkness. I have to admit though, I was relieved when her character died on the show!

What would you name it?:
As the design of the raven does remind me of the black fairy, I'm thinking Fiona, the name of the person that eventually turned into the black fairy. While the black fairy is supposed to be the embodiment of all things evil, I see a kindness in the raven dog's eyes, which reminds me of Fiona.
In my version of events on CS, Fiona chose love over power.

Image


Why should I give you the raven?
I don't think there is any specific reason that you should choose me over all the other worthy applicants of this dog, but I can promise you that I will take good care of her. She would be the crown jewel of my collection, proudly displayed in my trade rules and will probably get a rotating spot in my signature c: I love dressing up my pets and I've recently discovered so much potential for Once Upon A Time themed outfits, I'm struggling to decide whether I can dress her up as Fiona, or as the black fairy, but with all the apple items on CS I could also make a Regina-themed outfit work! Not to mention all the wonderful shadow pet items available (like the ones scattered through this post!)

If I am the lucky winner of this pet, I would be eternally grateful and keep her forever. However, in the event that I do leave CS, I promise to pay it forward and gift it to someone deserving, just like you have opted to do with your collection. Letting go is incredibly hard and I'm truly in awe of your generosity to the CS community!

Image

What is one thing you're grateful for?
Right now, I'm incredibly grateful for my wonderful friends and colleagues! Over the weekend I was bedridden with tonsillitis - I felt so terrible and weak. It was the first time I had been sick in a while and also my first time being sick since I moved to my new apartment. As much as I love living alone now, being sick on your own can be a little bit scary. It was so heartwarming to have people reach out to me to check throughout the day, and some even took time out of their busy days to send me care packages. Feeling loved and appreciated is truly a wonderful feeling, I'm so lucky to call these people my friends! I truly hope everyone here has people they know they can count on <3

Other:
As I alluded to earlier, I have *so* many outfit ideas in my mind for the raven dog based on different Once Upon A Time characters, and I'll definitely be experimenting/taking a good look through my items! But I thought I would also share a little bit about the raven dog's personality/backstory - the way I envision things c:

Growing up in a family surrounded by dark magic, Fiona's future was basically sealed from the moment she was born and she was expected to follow in her family's footsteps. [I can definitely see Fiona's parents to be the type to say "Love is weakness" lol]
But Fiona knew there was something different about her - she was incredibly shy and reserved but her siblings were loud and outgoing, jumping at the opportunity to exercise dark magic, even at the expense of others. While her friends chose to practice dark magic and looked down on those who couldn't, she much preferred to immerse herself in nature, away from all the distractions, and sit in beds of flowers to think. Her favourite spot was under the tree next to a lake tucked in the mountains, where she often visited to get away from her controlling family. There, she befriended all the songbirds and breathed in the crisp, mountain air.
Image

Whenever she broached the subject of not pursuing dark magic, her parents would always tell her "don't be silly, of course you will continue the family legacy." The likelihood of escaping dark magic grew smaller each day, and soon Fiona found her calling within the realm of dark magic: shadow creatures. The shadow creatures were often exploited for their use in dark magic - they were used to carry out spells and were then cast aside once their purpose was served. Fiona was keen to be their voice, advocating for their welfare and took time out of her day to care for them once the other dark magic students had left class. If Fiona was unable to escape dark magic, the least she could do was to try her best to make others' lives easier.

Why would you like the Raven?: I really like how it looks, with the tufts of feathers and large graceful wings. Ravens are some of my favorite birds as well, as they are intelligent and beautiful creatures. Any bird-related pet is a huge plus for me, and it's no surprise that I want the raven dog.
What would you name it?: Either Nevermore or Corvus. The first one is a reference to Edgar Allan Poe's poem The Raven, and I really like the name. The second one means "crow" or "raven" in Latin, and sounds beautiful.
Why should I give you the raven? I would treasure the raven and dress it up in creative ways <3
What is one thing you're grateful for? One thing I'm grateful for are my friends, as they support me even at my worst points in life and are always there to encourage me <3
Other: [Give the pet a personality, write a poem, a story, or provide some art etc.]

Black feathers floating gently in the breeze
A flutter of wings across the night sky
As the creature departs and flies away
One wonders how one could bear to say goodbye

Under the cover of dark clouds
A single croak resonates through
One could imagine the words
"I am waiting for you"

Thanks so much for the chance, and happy holidays!

I asked Him, "How much do you love me?"
Jesus replied, "This much."
He stretched his arms on the cross, died, and rose again. ✞

Why would you like the Raven?:
i honestly. dont know how to answer this? its not my favourite pet by any means, i just felt like i should join this giveaway for some reason.
What would you name it?:
Apollo
Why should I give you the raven?:
i dont think i deserve it more than anyone else in this thread. i do believe in karma and in passing it forward though.
What is one thing you're grateful for?:
my friends and their endless support.

Other:
    apollo is mindlessly, stupidly cruel.
    icarus built his wings like a fool and fell like a fool
    but his words flood your ears
    and your mouth still feels stuffed with a handful of wool so
    he opens your lips and pours gasoline.
    it burns like a hearth -
    you cant hide your eyes from it
    and it sticks to your throat.

    perhaps apollo was simply too out of reach,
    so you fly towards it instead.

    distance makes the heart melt fonder, so it goes.

    some mornings
    you woke up wishing you could taste yourself
    in the light of the sun,
    and the running water
    and your fingernails
    were not enough to scrub off the shame
    and no sheet could cover your face enough.

    you chase and you're open and spread
    he leads you nowhere
    and you let yourself led
    how come no one else sees the sun as you do? how come no one else
    sees apollo as cruel?

    they just see your wings melt and your fall
    and they pity the fool -
    as you do.

    when the sea hits your back
    it feels like summer again.
    it feels like a promise,
    a respite from the flame.

    icarus, thus you self proclaimed, flies close to the sun.
    reaching for the unreachable,
    but still reaching
    and the sun sees it and the sun smiles and the sun dries your lips and the sun rips your wings and melts your ribs and charrs your spine and your eyes and your hands
    and he smiles and he smiles and he smiles.

    when the sea hits your back for a second the sun reaches out and apollo breathes water down your throat
    and burns your lungs out with it.

Why would you like the Raven?: It's been a dream pet since I joined. But more than that I had one in my early days and got scammed out of it </3 they would be my prized pet and is commission a sig specifically to include them. I think they are the most elegant pet on the site and I fell in love the first time I saw one

What would you name it?: Smoke The Candle Maker

Why should I give you the raven? I have no reason above anyone else, I'm grateful for this chance and I congratulate the person who wins!

What is one thing you're grateful for? My life and where I am, I live with my partner, one of our best friends will be moving in, I just got my irl dream pet of a ball python and her name is Sunshine 🔆!!

Other: shy and quiet, this Candle Maker lives in the comfort of their own shop, using their wings, paws, and mouth to dip, carve, and design candles. Almost always covered in drips if wax, most thing they are dirty or unkempt, when in reality they are meticulous about cleaning every night.
Here's a painting I did inspired by the Raven Dog and how I fell about them
