Do you have a concept for a legendary design already?
I have a number of things in mind; perhaps too many if I’m being honest! I’m envisioning some type of mage or god (perhaps the god of magic and/or the night); with a black/white base and colored accents. Their legendary trait would most likely be gems (or possibly 2-3 sets of wings) that would glow (and maybe be star shaped).
+ White (Possibly a touch of silver) (Maybe Blue to Yellow rather than Magenta to Yellow)
Long Hair (Braided Back/With Braids) (Maybe Medium Length Hair if Male) + Matching Tail (Unbraided)
Gem/color constellations if I do go with god of the night to some extent.
Who will be making the myo? Ideally I’d commission one of my favorite artists to do the design (some examples including Aey, High Noon, Hiraeth + Hound, and Sixbane), however I’d probably start working on the concept sooner than they’d be opening their commissions!
How do you usually develop your kalons? While I do not have any kalons currently, I’d definitely start with their personality. I’d look at the finished Kalon, and think about what things pop out at me and why (expression, the designs influence on said expression, the design itself, etc), and I’d determine whether their characteristics align entirely, a lot, a little, or perhaps even not at all. From there, I’d search through name lists searching for the ideal name (going based off both meaning and the look of the name; ie if I don’t think the name would fit them then I wouldn’t choose it). Then I’d work on a basic history (looking into what world they live in, what that means for them, etc), before finally delving into things such as likes, dislikes, hobbies, fears, secrets, etc.
Tell me something about your favorite kalon: Honestly the moment I saw Nocturne I fell in love. I found him via a nursery batch he was a parent of, and everything about him just resonates with me! His entire concept is perfect: the black/white base with colored accents, the unique shape of the gems, his little blurb story of being the god of mischief, etc etc. I cannot help but adore him; and if you cannot already tell he’s definitely been a major inspiration to my own concept.
How many kalons do you own? Currently none; entered in a few competitions though and waiting on results!
Do you have a legendary kalon already? Nope.
What is something you like about the community? I love how welcoming the community is, even to those who do not own a Kalon yet! I can also appreciate the fact that everyone can just join in discussions whenever they want to and collectively fawn over all the beautiful kalons out there!
Anything else you'd like to add: Thank you so much for this opportunity! In addition, I’ve been looking through the other entries and there are just so many amazing kalon ideas; I look forward to seeing whoever wins and the Kalon that comes of it!
