Go to the main thread and it shows you their code for the ranks. c;

EDIT:
Are we allowed to use Aurion wolves who are already within the tribes in our story?
I won't make them go out of character or make them do something they shouldn't, I just don't want to have my Sakli (Sack-L-Eye) to feel like he's walking around in an empty world. c:
I may be mentioning some of the other species as background (except for my Whavi), is that okay to?

My entry's element is going to be ice, are we able to have it tinted a colour?
And can we have the ice act as liquid ice (it's still a solid, just able to move/grow/shrink/etc.) that freezes once the Aurion Wolf lets/commands it?


Apache, dear, I would truely love it if you could answer the questions above. c:

Are we allowed to ask for crits for our forms/wolves? And if so is there anyone on this thread willing to crit my form and give me some advice on my wolf?
Having serious issues viewing dark colours at the moment. May delay replys to pms. Sorry.

The Leopard Pups
Grey, Black and White. The world revolves and we go with it. Twisting in this everlasting monotony, eyes of green and gold, watching and waiting for our chance, our time. Cytor, Liliana, Serenade, Bayonet, the Prankster, the sweet one, the mother and the lost soul. There birth was a lost event, one in a million, two wandering souls met in the shadows, and these four were created. There pups are the stuff of legend, one lost there sight, one lost there path, one lost there love and the other? The other lost his family, everyone they cared about. He lost his family.

Made an entry! Please take into account that I am using one of those laptop track paddy things, so it's very hard to get accuracy.

Okay, fantastic!

Quick question, which counts more:

Your original art, but it's not very good

Or

Someone else's fantastic art which you have commissioned?

I've always wondered about that.

On the same line of thought as above, does it matter more if the story and the character are well developed, but the character's physical design isn't as spectacular, or if one has an awesome looking character but hasn't developed the character's personality and their story?

When judging would you be open to breaking down the places for each tribe, rather than three places for all entries? I see quite a few great entries for both tribes I'd like to see made into characters.
Looking for: Halloween 2019 pets. I have tokens but missed the trade in times due to no internet access the end of October.

A few questions i need answers to.

c00kieguirl wrote:In aurion is there still day and night right or does the moon shine all day?


Do the aurion's eat meat? Or do they eat fruits and berries like the Chalers?



When the pups go to speak to the moon spirit for the first time, does a large group go all at the same time, or do they go one at a time, or is only one pup most commonly speaking to the moon spirit in a day to ask for there element and furute Scholar whom they will be apprenticed under?


Aurion's have mates correct?

How many pups are commonly in a litter?

Can Healers have mates?

With some of those areas that are vague I just use my imagination and fill in the details. That's what I like about this particular contest. It seems to be open to a lot of different interpretation. I think the holder of the contest wants us to come up with some of our own ideas, otherwise they would have mentioned it already or answered.

One thing I thought of and surprised no one else picked up on (so far) is the thought of those Hakari masks holding powers given by the healers or the molders of the tribe. I believe it to be a great idea and wouldn't mind if people go ahead and use that idea.
Another idea is having the Yami tribe holding ceremonies where they dress up in bones. I think I've seen that line of thought used in a few entries and it seems very fitting.

---
These here are not specifically mentioned but is how I interpreted the story:

- The Yami tribe is rather young. It is the 1st generation. Kuro, their leader is a young/middle aged adult. anyone older than him would have to be from either the Hakari tribe or some unknown tribe (make up your own imagination what tribe that would be.) Anyone born of that tribe has to be rather young.

- The Hakari tribe is of unknown age. Shiro is also rather young (not much older than Kuro), but there is no mention if he is their first leader. As far as I know wolves of any age can be in that tribe and born of that tribe. It is also implied there are other Hakari tribes as well. I don't see any indication of there being other Yami tribes.

There is still day and night.

Aurion wolves eat meat, but unlike the Yami the Hakari are very greatful and prey only on the very primitive species, not chalers/refleur/glowdeer. They prey on normal looking mice/rabbits/snakes etc

Pups go with their mentor only, or sometimes with their mentor and the alpha.

Aurion wolves do and will have mates and litters. They mostly mate for life, but it is not always so. They are usually accepted (the couple is) by the moon spirit... sort of at a wedding-type thing. A ceremony.

pups are the same as actual wolves, 1-6 in a litter. Litters will most likely be chosen with a random generator but not always, it depends on the parents.
