Welcome to Direwood Racers. We are an organization that specializes in rescue, rehabilitation, and adoption of the rare and beloved species - Echobi. These creatures tend to be just under the size of a thoroughbred horse but have very canine-like features. They were originally bred in the old days to be used for racing, herding, and guard work, but now that we have a better understanding of their gentle and intelligent nature we encourage everyone to treat them as beloved companions. That being said, they're still very energetic working animals - so playful races and games are very important to keep them stimulated! Echobis can be seen in many different colors and patterns, usually similar to that of horses, but can also be bred to have more canine based genetics. They're often seen with dog-like base coats and equine-like white patterns, but all of them are rather unique. Unfortunately due to the way they were originally bred, these beautiful beasts can also be highly aggressive creatures if not trained properly, and can be very dangerous towards people, which is why they require very strict and diligent training. They have a diet of raw meat and are recommended to be fed by hand to strengthen bonds, but will also forage in fields for weeds such as clovers, dandelion greens, and various grasses. Echobi pups stand at about ten hands tall at birth, and will grow into their adult size of around fourteen to sixteen hands tall in under six months despite their extremely long lifespan. If you're up for the challenge - we're here to help. Direwood’s mission is to improve and spread the excitement of Echobis to the community, so we hope you enjoy them as much as we do!

General Rules
1. Be Kind to everyone. If you don’t win a adopt, there will be more opportunities to do so.
2. Respect the staff and each other. Always spread kindness when you can!
3. Please do not beg, whine, or complain. If there is a problem, we're always here to have a respectful conversation.
4. Do not bump threads continuously - if its more than seven days past the end date, it would be best to kindly message the artist to remind them.
5. Do not ask for a position as guest artist or artist. We will have an artist competition up for you to try out, and if you want advice or critiques just let us know!
6. You are allowed to own as many as you want within reason. Hoarding is not encouraged with this species, as we want each of them to receive a bit more attention.
7. Do not make your own custom or anything of the sort - these are not an open species!
8. Do not claim this species as your own or alter it in any way to make it your own. Plagiarism will be reported to CS moderators.
9. You must be registered for at least a month on Chickensmoothie with at least 50 posts. I'll be lenient on this with new members if they ask for help!
10. If you leave CS, your Echobis can be taken with you but must not be made into anything else, these cannot be your fursonas etc. If you wish to have them readopted to active CS members just PM me for help.
11. You may adopt one echobi every two days/forty eight hours. Please give other members a chance to adopt.

Artist Rules
1. Run everything by me first if you have any questions/concerns. I'm more than happy to help!
2. Turn to me for rule breaking - do not handle it yourself unless a very minor issue.
3. You may post as many Echobi as you wish, minimum of two per month to stay active. Remember; quality over quantity.
4. If there is an issue with your adopts or quality drops I will message you to work on things. Don't stress too much about this - but do expect unsolicited advice if there's an issue. I will always be kind though <3
5. If you are inactive for more than two months without reason you will be removed from the team. You can always try out on a later date. If you message me before taking a hiatus I will happily keep you on the team until you return. Just communicate c:
6. You may make five customs total, after you have made ten echobis (one custom every ten echobis made).
7. You may not make customs for others/gift echobis to friends.
8. Judge contests no later than seven days after the end date. Adopts left open longer than that without any response will be judged by me.
9. Do not make contests last more than seven days, unless it is a special event/impress me type comp. Extensions are always allowed if members ask.
10. Be sure to follow the species rules, do not make unnatural designs or ones that do not pertain to equine/canine genetics. This is pretty loose but try to keep designs within reason at least.
11. Do not make line edits without asking first. I may allow them for special events if your lineart work is of good quality. Minor halter edits are allowed for any regular adopt if desired.
12. Do not change line color/background/ect. unless it's for special event.
13. Use this form for each adopt - do not majorly alter please.
