All About WoI's

Sounds like a wonderful idea! Hahaha, Athena will just be drifting out there, though I might make her distantly related to some wolves because in my story, her parents were part of a pack that was separated from the main one in a Kronador ambush during a blizzard.

Tundra, I have a nice line of Luxyrus's family written down already (click her shrine in my signature). She is a descendant of Rayo, so it would be a nice place to start ^^
I dont have her ENTIRE family down (since it would branch off too far and I didnt want it to get confusing) so there may be some gaps after her closest blood relatives.

Ok so I need some help with my story for a WOI I'm trying out for, are we allowed to have someone else make us a story? If so where can I find a place that makes stories?

Someone can't write the story for you but you can ask for hp I think :)

From the little I know, you have to actually write the story yourself, but you may ask for critique. I could be wrong, but that's exactly what I plan on doing for my form. ^^

You have to write yourself a story, you can only order art. You can get minor help, but you have to do the majority of the work yourself.

Completely unrelated to any post before this, I have an issue I wanted to bring up. I've noticed a few users putting WOI they are competing for in their signature before they have won the WOI. I feel this is wrong, and should not be being done. After you own the WOI its fine, but before its just as if your already stating that HEY I OWN YOU NOW. Its happened a lot more in these last litters then before, I just wanted to bring it up.

Some input on this? How many agree? Should a new rule be made against it. Or am I the only one.

Tundra; As you can see, both Newsie and I have done this. Maybe it would help if you understood our reasoning?

It's mainly about saying how much we want this character; we link to our forms so others can read them, etc. It's also a way to advertise, to get art or critique. Because we can't possibly talk to every artist out there Cx

I'm a little mixed on it. Some users only seem to do it to keep up with their competition, wheras some user has to be the firts to do it in the first place. I guess so long as they're not saying 'Oh hey look I own this WoI lalala' then its fine, but that's just me. Either way I'm going to ask my sister to take it out of her ava and sig just because she's my sister and I can do that. (She also feels like she has to do it to keep up with Zima and Newsie, she's trying really hard)

TY for the input, I just wanted to post it so everyone can make comments on it. I understand where your getting at, as I know a few that have done it for other races as well. I just feel its almost as if your saying you already have the WOI. Again, ty for an explanation, I wan't to hear from other people as well their view on it.

And TY Haestine for your input as well
