Re: Storkatten Magic Design Contest | C$ Prizes

Postby kiwipen » Fri Jan 14, 2022 2:49 pm

Entries that have met the minimum requirements:

Skywardthedragon: Metal
bakuraas. - Faunal
LavenderRain - Poison
LavenderRain - healing
GraveBlues - Runes

Every entry here has earned a Standard MYO. If you have not met the requirements, it means you haven't met 400 words of writing in the time limit . While your entries will still be considered for entering into Storkies, they will not earn you a Standard MYO.

Reviews, Comments, etc. for those who met minimum requirements.

Healing - LavenderRain

I love your inclusion of your research into eye colors for healing magic, as well as your reasoning for it. Very cool! Your addition of lore and fitting it into the Storkie world was also a very nice touch, and that's even before I get into Sana's backstory :)

Sana's story is really nice and emotional, I love the way you tie it in to your other entry with poison, as well as her awakening of her powers. It's a tragic and sad, but very neat story!

The design itself is very nice, I love your choices of colors for the eyes and your inclusion of it coloring her flesh green thanks to what I assume is Paragon Magic.


Poison - LavenderRain

I decided to judge these two together. I agree that poison was the best choice of the three as it does pair very well with healing! I also love your pairing of poison with purples. A fun fact, poison is actually the magic type /I/ would have added if no one would have suggested it :)

The same backstory, but it's nice to see these two existing together :)

The design itself is really cool, I love the skull markings and how you've portrayed poison in the way that you have.

Graveblues - Rune Paragon

From the design to the concept I absolutely adore this Storkie. I like the inclusion of the various levels of magic and what the Storkie is capable of doing at those levels. I will be yoinking the concept of 'rune materials' for future experiences, that's for sure.

Loved the backstory and how he discovered Rune magic - either for himself or for Storkies as a whole, we may never know >:)

Bakuraas. - Faunal

I always enjoy reading your takes on my worlds and lore, and this is no exception. Reading about how his mother interpreted - and reacted to - his difference in magic, was a very fun take to read. I love your description of faunal magic and what it is, what it REALLY is and how it differs from others. Love how he grew with his magic :)

The design itself is super cute and very well edited, and I adore the concept of Faunal magic so much. Very nice work!

Skywardthedragon - Metal

Okay, I'll be real with you; this is a sick idea (positive). The mentioning of born-Metal Storkies having the innate ability to sharpen their claws is awesome, and the image of a knight having multiple swords parrying in a fight sounds awesome. This definitely screams 'war-focused' magic in a positive way.
Love Aurichalcum's name as well, what a fun pun!

Design wise, I love how they look metallic ^^ Really well done.

----
Magics that did not make the minimum requirements, but I would still like to add regardless;

Balance - GraveBlues [ Legendary ]
- This needs it's own post on it's own as I feel it needs a few alterations to add to Storkies.

Bardic/Vocal - Origalaxii/EchoIre - Limited
Official magic type will be called Bardic, and it combines aspects from both of your entries.
It will also feature a different eye color (potentially), so stay tuned for that. I will make a proper post talking about it.

Time - MidnightFoxo [ Legendary ]

Constellation - strawberrymwilk - Rare
Name will be changed to 'astral' magic, but otherwise concept will be kept.

and finally , the concepts that made it to my inbox but not the canvas. These are included for transparency, but will not be included in judging.

Love Magic - Rare - GraveBlues

Pink to pinkish red eyes with heart pupils.
Will have the unique effect of having no breeding cooldowns.

Fungal Magic - Rare - GraveBlues
Will deal with mushrooms, fungus, death and rebirth.

Trickster Magic - Limited - GraveBlues
Hypnotically swirled eyes, but have the unique ability to have ANY eye colors. They deal with illusions.

If you did not get a comment on your post with a trait list and a magic rarity, that unfortunately means your Storkie has not made the cut and will not be legal.

If you find yourself on this list, you are able to transfer your design out of species or save it's design for a Storkie-legal MYO.

With that being said, this is not the judge list or even grand prize list, but simply my thoughts as I collect them.

The next post will be announcing winners of each prize tier.

Grand Prize Winner - bakuraas. with Faunal Magic
RU #1 - GraveBlues with Rune Magic
RU #2 - LavenderRain with Plant /Poison Duo
RU #3 - SkywardtheDragon with Metal magic

It was an incredibly hard decision choosing the Grand Prize winner, but I ultimately have decided bakuraas. is the grand prize winner. Your writing told a story of both faunal magic and the cat you chose, and you went the extra mile with quality *and* quantity on every aspect of both art and writing.

Additional prizes to hand out;
LavenderRain - x2 Unlimited Limited trait/magic and below Storkie MYO vouchers
Strawberrymwilk - x1 Unlimited Limited trait/magic and below Storkie MYO voucher
OriGalaxii - x1 Unlimited Limited trait/magic and below Storkie MYO voucher
midnightFOXO - x1 Unlimited Limited trait/magic and below Storkie MYO voucher
