Tough as Nails Adoption (Closed for renovations!)

[Kari Lion]

I finally got a donation finished... I happen to think he's quite spectacular. I have never really paid attention to TaN before, so I'm a bit fuzzy on the process. Someone fill me in so I don't look like a giant donkey please?

To donate a character, you just need to fill in the form on the front page and post it. :3 It's best if you wait until donations are open (which will probably be next Monday or so, since that's when this round ends), but it's not essential; it's just that donations are more likely to get missed if they're posted in the middle of a round. Once your design is submitted, it is assessed and if accepted will be added to the list of available characters for the next round. After that, people can post their applications for the character, the applications are judged by yours truly, and the person who has the best and most creative form wins the character at the end of the round. ^^

Alrighty, I'll hold off on posting for a while then.

Number: 4
Picture:
Name: Mika
Species: Aqua horse, (Like a water horse, its pretty much the same)
Personality: wild and she likes to run free, she has a big attitude and wont tolerate people getting too close to her if they intend to ride her.
Likes: Lila, running, swimming, being free, apples, food,
Dislikes: any person other than lila, being enclosed, especially in a barn, having a saddle, being tied up, not being able to run, and many other things...
Background (Optional, but it gives you a better shot)

Mika ran freely for only a few months, but by then she was pretty big as her species grew fast. When lila came she knew that she was her rider, the one she would love, yet she was still scared. Lila didnt come over to her at first, instaid she just sat on a large boulder near the field where Mika ran, just to watch. Never had Mika been so interested in human life, unless they were trying to capture her.

One day, a boy came with her, and it made Mkia keep away in fright. She didnt run to far, because she could still hear his words.

"You wont be able to tame this one," he said, "she a wild beast, she kicks when you get near, unless of course she has chosen you," He then looked over at Mika and she snorted, proud of her untamable status. Yet when lila got down off the rock and slowly walked towards her and brian, the boy, stayed back, she didnt run.

Mika snorted, she was afraid. Mika paced in place, just lifting her feet.

"Shhh its ok," lila said with a reassuring voice that calmed her. She crept forwards untill she was right infront of Mika, and she reached out a hand. She rubbed Mika's snout, then waorked her way around, looking at the big horse. Her mane a brilliant blue only an aqua could have, her coat a deep and rich black, it was so shiny, even living in the wild.

When she got closer to her rear her hand rested on her hip and a weird feeling came over her and a symbol appeared under her hand. What the heck? they both thought at the same time, them looked at each other. We are bonded little one. Mika said and nudged lila. Lila smiled and walked back to the front of Mika.

When lila was walking she looked at her hand, i had the same mark on it as on Mika. Bonded, she thought, interesting. She was at Mika's side now, but she stopped. Can I ride you? she asked in her head and she saw Mika nod. She swung one leg over Mika's back as she was small enough to reach, yet big enough to carry her. She pulled her self up and the feeling was great. Lets go! And they were off, going as fast as the wind, Mika ran with fluid motions, it wasnt a bumpy ride as she had expected.

They ran together for over an hour for the first time, laughing and playing, untill dark. Lila steered mika towards Brian, dont be afraid, he wont hurt you, She said to her, and mika kept going forwards, but she was still weary. When they were close enough to talk, brian hopped down from the rock, it startled Mika and she kicked out a bit. Lila flew off, landing on her butt.

"Shhhh...Mika, its ok," She said out loud this time. Mika was scared, but she walked back up to lila and nuzzled her.

"How did you tame her?" Asked brian, walking slowly over. He ran a hand over Mika's snout, but she snorted. He took a step back, then looked at lila, who was still on the ground. He smiled, then offered her a hand up. She pulled herself up.

'Thanks," she said, then rubbed Mika's nose. "I dont know how I did, I just walked up, but now I have this," she said and raised up her hand, the mark on it glowed a bit. "I can also talk to her in my mind,"

"Oh thats how," he said and his eyes widened. "Only a few people, including myself of course, Can bond with a creature, you have to either not be born here, or just be lucky and find the exact animal, which could be any creature."

Lily smiled, then hopped back up onto Mika. "Who did you bond with?" She asked him, and he whistled. A giant black stallion came running, he was alike to Mika, the same black, but he had a red mane. Lila smiled. "Is it a coincidence that yours is a horse too?" she aske, and he nodded.

"this is byron, he is my stallion and bonded animal, It is strange we both bonded with a horse..." then he trailed off. He hopped up on byron and smiled, "Race you back!" he yelled, then him and byron surged forwards. Lets get them, Lila said in her mind and Mika snorted. She bolted forwards, quickly catching up to byron and then passing them. Ha, brian and byron, interesting She thought and mika snorted in agreement.

They raced back to the farm very fast, stopping when they neared, lila won by a mile. "I guess Im just faster," She said, then hopped down from Mika.





((I dont have time to write the rest of her story, butI will summarize. Mina comes and is bonded, blah blah blah...The humans start to find aqua, the place they live under water. Soon, mina and lila are on the team made for keeping away the humans. Mina and lila think up a plan, I havent figured out their plan, but they do think of one. The humans leave/they live happily ever after.))

His Story (Oh, sorry. known as backround to.) :

Smudge woke one day, finding himself in a glass cage. "H-hello?" He asked, as he put his front paws against the glass. "Were am I?" He asked out loud. He turned and saw a cup of pellets, and a wet sponge. Im at the pet shop! He gave out a squeak of horror and pushed himself up against the glass again. "Let me out!!" He Squeaked. But none answered. "Please!! I want out!!"He turned around with a devious smile on his face. He trotted down to were his cup of pellets sat and started to dig in the mulch used as bedding.

After an hour, his hole was huge, and it dug down into the wood below. He squeezed in the hole and navigated himself around to the outside.

That rat is from the success stories. It isn't a adoptable for this round, it's already adopted by someone.

Number: 8

Name: Nireta
Species: Mist Spirit/Wolf
Personality: Nireta is a bit shy, preferring to disguise herself in mist before approaching other spirits. Since she died and became a spirit, she cannot feel pure happiness or sadness, pure hate or love; however, at times, traces of these emotions make themselves known in the hollow that was once her heart. She keeps away from highly populated places when on Earth, usually staying near isolated areas such as mountain waterfalls or valleys. She is the reason for the mist commonly floating around these places in the morning. She must be back in the spirit world before nightfall each day, or she will be forced to return to a mortal state, and, after dying, she will never again be able return to the state of a spirit, instead becoming one of the lost souls confined to the river of fire which runs under the surface of the earth. She deeply fears these consequences; as a result, she is very punctual, always quick to do the Chief Spirit's bidding.
Likes: Nireta has a special attachment to isolated places. She often wishes she could become mortal again, simply to feel the joy of running through the water, feeling the falls splash down on her. She misses being able to feel, and hopes that just once, she can feel happiness and love once more.
Dislikes:
