Zver you want: Escaped Zver #CC2
Name: Zyxnrid

Reason you want it: When Zvers first came out, I was always interested in adopting one, but I never got the chance, as I was always so busy. When I saw they had been released again, I was extremely excited and came to check them out. As soon as I saw this particular Zver, I immediately fell in love. His beautiful colors and simple yet stunning design caught my fancy right away. I have a bunch of ideas for him as a character, so I hope I can pull them off.

What will you do with it if you win?: Zyxnrid will go into the category of some of my most beloved adopted pets, such as Tiyagar. I will order lots of art of him, and hopefully continue the story found in this form. Zyxnrid will become a beloved character, and I will treasure him as much as all my other characters, if not more.

Personality: Zyxnrid is a haughty, proud Zver who cares more about his appearance then anything else. He refuses to walk on dirty ground, and will not move across these areas unless he is carried. Zyxnrid forms one opinion of a person, and he will not change it easily. The first time he sees someone is the most important time, for despite how different they may be on the next meeting, he doesn't care. He still thinks of them as he did the first time they met. Zyxnrid believes that he is on top of everyone. He is extremely proud, and looks down on everyone. He doesn't like to be talked back to, and holds himself in high esteem.

Introduction/Story:
One....two......three.
The light beamed down into the middle of the stage where Zyxnrid stood proudly. This was his domain. He lived here, on the stage, performing, showing off. He was only at home here, in front of the clapping, cheering crowd. He preened and primped himself, greedily absorbing the attention and eyes of the crowd.
"There he is!"
Zyxnrid broke out of his fabulous trance to see a group of white-cloaked humans running towards him. He snarled and backed up. He was tired of these people chasing him. What were they called again, scientists or something? Zyxnrid couldn't remember.
These people had been chasing him for a while now. He had escaped from them before, and was now on the run. While in their "care," Zyxnrid was prodded and probed and he hated it. They did terrible things to him, and it hurt him just to think about it. And what's worse, while running away from these vile and terrible creatures. he was forced to run through dirt. Zyxnrid shuddered at the thought. The scientists were approaching quickly, and this simply could not do. Zyxnrid mustn't be caught again. He didn't think he could live with that. Sure, he adored attention, but certainly not that kind of attention. He swished his tail and jumped gracefully over the crowd. He landed at the back of the crowd. All eyes were on him. An obscene word came from the stage, where the group of scientists was standing. All of them looked tired and they had red faces.
"Catch him!" One of them scientists called.
Zyxnrid snorted. He despised these people. They seemed to think something was wrong with him, and that he needed to be fixed. He didn't think there was anything wrong with himself. So, why were they after him?
Zyxnrid ran through the forest, his paws pounding on the forest ground. He had to take a couple of detours, for getting covered in mud was simply not acceptable. No matter what, his pristine and gorgeous coat must not get matted. That would be dreadful.
After having ran for what seemed like a long enough time, Zyxnrid stopped and turned into the woods. He decided to head back to the stage. At least there he would receive a meal and a warm place to stay for the night. The people who ran the theater were some of the only ones who knew how talented and special Zyxnrid truly was, and this was why he wanted to get back as fast as he possibly could.
Zyxnrid sniffed. The forest was simply disgusting. There were bugs, and dirt, and everything gross. It was awful having to run from these people, if this was what he had to do to get there.
Still, he wasn’t sure if he’d rather have this than being tortured in the lab.
But the forest was large, and Zyxnrid began to realize that he might be lost. He snarled in annoyance and fumbled around in the semi-darkness of the woods.
After quite a while of wandering around, Zyxnrid found his way to the path he had used when entering the forest. He figured the scientists would already be further away, so he ran down the path, finally realizing where he was.
He eventually found his way back to the stage. The cabin where the people lived had a light in the door, and Zyxnrid shivered, knowing the state his fur was probably in. He simply had to fix it, and here was where he would return to his wonderful shine.
He pushed open the cabin’s door and strutted in.
“Got you!” A voice said.
Zyxnrid looked up to meet the dark, ominous eyes of one of the scientists. He began to screech and scream, making terrible noises that scared all of the neighbors into calling the police.
In a wild act of fury, Zyxnrid screamed, tearing the net and bolting out of the house. He ran through the woods, not caring anymore. He pushed through brambles and bushes, his heart beating, ba-dump, ba-dump.
He finally emerged into a clearing, panting. He found himself in front of a warm, cozy-looking cabin. It seemed to be radiating warmth and kindness, and Zyxnrid found himself walking towards the door.
He pushed it open and found a small, warm room waiting for him.
He looked up into the surprised, but kind eyes of a blonde-haired young woman wearing an apron. "Well, who are you? What a handsome thing you are,” she said, reaching down.
Zyxnrid backed up warily.
The woman laughed. “My name is Angela,” she said, sitting down at a stool. “I make natural remedies.”
She poured a small vial into a large cauldron, and it emitted a warm red glow.
Zyxnrid sat down, realizing no harm came from this woman, Angela, or whoever.
Angela stood up from her stool and grabbed something from a desk nearby. "Let me take out these tangles," she said, using the strange device from the table to brush out Zyxnrid’s fur.
Zyxnrid felt a warm glow inside. Perhaps life wasn’t all bad after all.

Zver you want:
#CC3
Name:
Arathea
Reason you want it:
I really like applying for adoptables you have to write a story about to be able to get it. It helps better my writing skills and actually helps me to become more creative. I started to write for this particular Zver because she seemed to stand out to me. She had brighter colors then the other two and I liked her personality better then the other two.
What will you do with it if you win?:
She will chill in my sig for a while so I can show to everyone her beauty but then I will place her in my companion thread. I will most likely write short stories and draw fanart of her as well. :3
Personality:
"This girl's soft, loving appearance is extremely misleading. This girl is very stubborn and hard-headed, determined to do things her way. She doesn't react well to being restrained, and is a force to be reckoned with." - Metallic Dragon

This particular Zver is very much like the wind itself. She's wild, carefree, and at times a little reckless. She rolls into the scene much like a powerful storm, loud and demanding everyone's attentention while at the same time showing beauty and an underlying power. She blows over everyone, refusing to give in to fear or a potential threat, and may even push aside those who get in her way. At times, however, she can be a breeze, still as wild but not with as much energy, and showing a warm kindness to those she loves.
Introduction/Story:
The white creature ran. Her paws were a blur of motion as her powerful limps propelled her forth. Her breath came out in pants and her dark eyes blurred from wind buffeting them. Behind her, sirens rang. Her delicate ears were assaulted by the harsh sound, but it only spurred her pick up the pace. She was flanked by two other escapees. The dark coat of a male and the tan coat of a female. Together, they were becoming fugitives. Together, they would be free.

Expanding the last of her energy, she managed to pass the final hurdles to freedom and leave that horrible place behind. They would no longer be stared or prodded at like some prey about to be eaten. No. She was the hunter now. And just wait till she met those hairless two-legs in the open.

Slowly, I made my way home from school. My shoulder ached from the weight of books in my backpack and a dull throbbing had set residence in my skull. It was one of those days. I gave a weary sigh and forced my tired legs to carry me home. Only a few blocks and I would be home. If you could call it that.

"Hey!" I paused when I heard a harsh cry, almost like nails on a chalkboard, sound behind me. I turned around and noticed a group of guys from my school. A malicious look gleamed in their eyes. "You managed to slip from our grasp back at school, but you don't have any teachers to protect you now!" The bigged boy yelled. He raised a grimy hand and pointed an equally grimy finger in my direction. "Get him!" He barked to his cohorts.

Without waiting to see if they obeyed I spun around and ran. I dropped my books from my shoulder in an effort so I could gain more speed. I could hear the boys behind me slowly catching up. I made a snap decision and crashed into the forest that surrounded the neighborhood.

My breath was ragged as I fought to keep ahead of my persuers. My heart pounded in my ears but I could still hear them behind me. I hopped over fallen tree trunk, but my shoelaces got caught. I gave a cry of surprise and pain as I slammed into the forest floor. Desperately I kicked and struggled vainly trying to get free.

I saw the boys approaching. Their fingers were curled into fists and their grins were almost snarls. I close my eyes, waiting for the end when I heard one of the boys scream in fear. My eyes flew open and then widened in shock.

A bizarre white creature was snarling at the boys. Her wide white paws lashed out with sharp claws and her pearl and teal tail lashed back in forth. Truthfully, she was terrfying and the other boys thought so too. They quickly turned tail and ran, their shrieks echoed in the forest.

Swiftly, I managed to get my foot free but the noise attracted the attention the large panther-like creature. Her dark green eyes narrowed on me as she krept closer and her shoulders were bunched, ready to fight if necessary. My breath caught in my throat and I was unable to tear my eyes from the beautiful yet deadly creature.

She paused suddenly, and she leaned towards my hand and I noticed strange little pores near her eyes. Her tongue dashed out and licked the back of my hand and my heart fluttered.

I didn't know what this bizarre yet beautiful creature was, but I suddenly fell in love with her. Judging from the way her tail flicked, and she headbutted my shoulder, she felt the same way.
-------


Dear Journal,
Alright, I would like to say sorry for not writing the last few months. It's been kinda crazy and I couldn't find the time. Now, I would like to say, I finally ran away from home. I know I know, big shock. Surprisingly though, I didn't run away because of my neglegent parents, or the abusive kids at school, or any other reason. No. I ran away because of an alien.

A few days ago, a strange white panther-like creature protected me. At first I was afraid, but insanely curious at what the creature was. It wasn't until I had snuck her home and saw the news bulletin on TV that I realized what she was. She's called a Zver. Supposedly, this species is incredibly dangerous but they are trying to get civilians to help recapture them. Dangerous? I can hardly call her dangerous, especially now looking at her curled up asleep with her forehead pressed against my legs. No, definately not dangerous. I think I will call Arathea, an elvish name for wind. It seems to suit her.

I don't know what will happen in the next few days. I have some cash, spare cloths, and other useful items tucked away in may backpack and Arathea is proving to be an invaluable hunter. However, she can be a little reckless. It was quite amusing to watch her find out what exactly brambles are. Maybe next time she won't be too stubborn and actually listen to me. Silly girl.

I will keep writing if good fortune permits. I know no one will read this unless the worse has happened. Atleast this will help me keep some of my sanity in check and to prove to others that these...Zvers are not dangerous.

What have I gotten myself into?
~Aaron


[I think I did this right. Even if I do not win her, I really enjoyed writing this about her. I hope you like reading it! :3]


Congratulations Azure ^^ Sorry I took so long to judge, I just bought Sims 3 and I got a bit caught up in what I was doing(I've never played the Sims before)
