▪ Username: Lemur-Flight
▪ Whelkon Name: Cahi
▪ Personality (About 200 words): Cahi’s personality can be described as the ocean. He is strong and powerful, full of might. He is deep; his mind is full of thoughts and his heart is full of emotion. He is full of life, even at the moments at which he seems stillest. There are parts of Cahi that everyone gets to see and enjoy and bask in, like they would waves at a beach, but there are also parts of him of which only a few can get to, personal treasures he keeps hidden for those who are most willing and most wanting to know him and to share a bond with him.
In a manner like the ocean, Cahi has a disposition that leaves others gravitating to him. His traits come off of him in waves and the others know they can rely on him to keep things lively and to be strong when needed.
Does Cahi’s personality change like the tides? Well, no. But, like the currents, it is always taking him, and sometimes others, for an interesting ride through an amazing world.

▪ Short Story (300 words max or disqualified):Cahi had a feeling that something was not right. He had dreamt of a tumultuous ocean and awoke knowing something wrong was on the verge of happening. And so he set out to put this to rest.
It was cold and dark; the icy ground was covered in snow and more was falling. Cahi anxiously swished his tail and swiveled his ears, in hopes of finding what his intuition warned him of. He walked and walked through cold, dark night until he could hear waves lapping at land.
Cahi had traversed this area enough to know the sound was, in a way, an illusion. There was no beach anyone could walk to from where he currently was; only a cliff that went out over the ocean. There was not even a rocky shore at the bottom of the cliff.
The Whelkon blinked large snowflakes out of his eyes and saw another creature: it was a tall, two-legged creature. It was at the edge of the cliff, gazing out.
Feeling this was where his feeling was coming from, Cahi let out a cry. The two-legged being, though not understanding the language, looked back. Cahi saw a pale face outlined by long, dark hair. The creature squinted its eyes, but did not see Cahi.
The Whelkon, although he did not know why, approached the two-legged creature. When it saw him he slowed and gently reached out his muzzle. A pale hand met his nose. Blue eyes met. Then, all was warm and he departed.
The human, who had been suffering nightmares of drowning, never dreamt of it again, but of the Whelkon the color of the sea; dark streaks that were tugging depths, lighter stripes that were a torn moon riding watery ripples, and eyes of paradise.

(I've been animating for an entire 2 days, so I thought it'd be cool and good practice to do cahi's story)
▪ Why you want this Whelkon (Few sentences): The species is amazing, and this one is absolutely gorgeous. He reminds me of the ocean (I'm sure you can tell that by now) and that is very dear to me. And the story is linked to something kinda personal for me (I don't mind sharing, I just don't wanna go sob story. I want to win him fairly.)
**by the way, I can't tell if his eyes are blue or seagreen. Those are my favorite colors, but it did kind of make a difference in the story...**
