Postby KathrynKat » Thu Jan 26, 2023 5:03 pm

Help pick names and build lore for these 2 lovelies!
- Names
- Gender of each They can be girl x girl or girl (white/blue) x boy (black/blue)
- How they met
- Maybe some personality
- Maybe something they've done together or shared interests with a story
- Light blue and white is blind!!

Best Names
Each get a baby! So if I like names from 2 different users, then both will obtain a baby, same goes for if I like both names from same user.

Best Lore For Pair
I'll judge this as an overall as they're a couple that I'd like to share some lore and interest that match up!
This will win you a total of 1-5 babies depending how much lore is made.
Lore must include a fair amount not just gender and a few personality words.. Please do put effort!

Raffle
Everyone who enters gets entered into a RAFFLE for a chance to win 1 baby from this pair!

All babies will be made together in a batch, and each user will be instructed on what order each user gets to pick from the litter after they've hatched!



6 Babies in the making

Quick question on the side:
Do we post lore / ideas here or DM you? And is there an (approximate) end date to this?

No form, just style it how you like. Basically set up as if you'd set up your own character with some lore.
Also be here! ^_^

Also not thought of end date oops hmmm
IDK cuz sometimes contests end up almost no entrants and wouldn't really want to use info or lore I'm not too into..
I assume could be days to week or so or if multiples enter.

Name & Gender light blue and white: Naidini (girl, but prefers "they/them")

Name and gender black and Blue: Arakesh (boy)

Naidini, though blind since the day they hatched, has never let that hold them back. They have a strong sense of independence, many plans of what they want to do and achieve, or at least try to achieve, in their live. As they never had eyesight, their other senses are very well trained, and they have a good feeling for their body and where in a given room they are, which comes in very handy when one tries to navigate new, unvisited places. This is a challenge they try to impose on themself as often as possible, and they do not like using a came or other obvious help.
Naidini is a very outdoors type of person, enjoying contact with nature very much and preferring outdoorsy activities over those that keep them “caged up” inside. Concerning other people, they are relatively shy and take their time to open up to others – but once they do, Naidini are a very reliable friend.
They love music, are a trained singer, and have taken lessons in various instruments to get a "basic feeling" for those, too. They love a-capella-style music the most and are very proficient at creating music with only their voice and body.
Naidini lived by themselves before getting to know (and falling in love with) Arakesh, which is not always easy for the blind, but as they organize themself, their lair was just perfect for them. They prefer an almost ascetic style of living, partly because it is just practical not to have too many things cluttering up space, and partly because there is no real reason for them to decorate - they can´t see it, and for whom else should they do this? Well, this last point only holds true for the time before Arakesh, obviously.

Arakesh was not remarkable as a youngster. If you´d ask him, he still is not. He´s quite strong, of a "no-Bullshit"-mindset, and can be quite hot-headed at times. But overall, he qualifies more as a teamplayer than as a leader. He never quite commited to learning a trade, though, which is not as troubling because he is quick to grasp new concepts. He loves music, likes painting & decorating and overall pleasing aesthetics.
If left to himself, he will mostly chill (which, for him, means painting, creative writing, taking photos or undertaking trips to “that perfect photo location”) and relax, doing only the most necessary chores and procrastinate as much as possible. But give him a timetable to work by, and it just flows! Arakesh needs a little pressure from the outside to live to his fullest potential.
Maybe this is why he started work as a helper in event management for a renownded organizer. Lugging heavy equipment never bothered him, and working with bands or local businesses to create good layouts for a given location gave him a creative outlet without the hassle of having to think of everything by himself. And, maybe more important, one that payed the bills.
He only just moved out from hios parents place before meeting Naidini, or, more properly put, has ben set out on his own feet. So he really is not familiar with the necessities of household chores, or organzing a good home, but goes about these things in a very carefree manner. This occasionally leads to a little stress for him and Naidini, but over all, they manage very well.

will edit once I am satisfied with the next part.

Sorry for the novel-length post, I tried to keep it short but got carried away oops
Mizi - white/blue

Mizi is free-spirited and loves adventure. She is curious,
spontaneous, and always up for a new challenge. Mizi
is impulsive, and stubborn at times, but highly intuitive
and with an innate talent for sensing danger. She values
her independence, is deeply empathetic, and can't help
but care for others.

Mizi was born in a small village with a loving and tight-knit
community. She lost her sight at a young age due to
illness, but she refused to mourn her loss, and instead
embraced her other senses. Mizi developed a strong
intuition capable of guiding her through life with very
little help from others.
Growing up, she was often discouraged from exploring and having
adventures due to her blindness, but she refused to be held back.
She would often sneak out to the countryside on her own, and her
sharp intuition let her discover the world around her while avoiding
danger almost flawlessly.
Mizi's free spirit and unwavering determination made her an
inspiration to those who knew her.
Kline - black/blue

Kline is proud, confident, and very cunning. He has a strong sense of morality and justice and does his very best to stand up for what he believes is right. Despite his serious demeanor, Kline has a great sense of humor and an endless love for adventure. He is very protective of his friends and family, and will even put their happiness and well-being above his own morals and beliefs.

Kline was born into a proud family of nobles known for valuing strength and excellence above all else. He was trained in combat and strategy since he was young, becoming an expert in both by the time he came of age.
Growing up, Kline's serious demeanor and strong sense of justice sometimes put him at odds with those around him, so he decided to join the local order of knights to find like-minded people who shared his strong beliefs and sense of justice.
Kline's witty sense of humor was often hidden behind his serious front, but the mischievous glint in his eye was very clear to those who knew him well. Despite his intimidating reputation, he was deeply compassionate and had a heart for those in need.



First Meeting
Kline was sent on a quest to defend a community of farmers being terrorized by a gang that was trying to take control of their small village. He stumbled upon Mizi by pure chance, finding her singing a light-hearted tune as she wandered by, seeming completely unaware of the dangerous conflict happening nearby. Kline approached her and asked if she was okay, to which she responded cheerfully that she was. Despite her blindness, he could see the brave determination shining through in her eyes.

As they talked, Kline realized that Mizi's natural intuition was unmatched, and her talent for sensing danger could prove valuable in his mission to protect the small community. He tentatively offered to bring her along, and she eagerly accepted and offered her unique skills to aid in the rescue, hungry for a new adventure.
Mizi amazed Kline with her unwavering spirit and courage even in the face of danger, her free-spirited nature and sense of fun perfectly balanced Kline's seriousness and discipline, making an excellent team.

The mission ended with a success, the two forming a bond over their shared experience. They decided to stay together after that, Mizi often joining Kline on his quests.

--------------------


Years later
A few years after they first met, Kline was sent on a mission to deal with a powerful lord known for his cruelty who was trying to expand his territory, threatening the villages nearby. Mizi joined him without hesitation. As they approached one of the villages, they could see that the situation hit the villagers hard, the weight of the lord's presence pushing them to desperately cry at Kline and Mizy for help.

Kline made a plan to take down the lord with his lifelong training in battle and strategy, and was ready to charge ahead, but Mizi warned him that they should be more careful as the lord could have known they were coming and he could have set traps to eliminate them. Kline, always willing to trust Mizi's instincts, adjusted his plan and opted for a quieter approach.

Together they were able to outsmart the lord and drive him away from the villages he was threatening, returning home tired but proud of their success. Without Mizi, Kline could have failed his mission and put the people in even more danger. He was proud to call her his friend, and couldn't imagine facing the world without her by his side.
