A Kiamara is a wolf-like creature. They have long, fluffy manes on the top of their heads, running down between their shoulders. They all have spots on their bodies- a trait in which will never be bred out of their DNA. They also have feathers- every Kiamara is given feathers when they reach the age of 2 years old. Their diet consists of fruit as well as meat- they prey on similar creatures that wolves would. Kiamara can be very shy before they get to know you. Can you win a Kiamara's heart?

So I have had this guy/girl hidden away for a while XD so I finally kicked myself in the butt to fix him up for you guys XD
Line edits were approved by apple.

So for this Kia, You can make it either gender. I will allow you to make your own form, but please keep in mind, though extras and art are important, the personality is the most important thing. I would like a well rounded thought out character with flaws, quirks fears ect. A history would be cool as well, but im looking for unique well developed interesting ideas.
Please refrain from using pictures from google, you may but I would rather self made stuff. Quality over quantity

For those who dont know where to start here are some unique ideas, and skeleton form that you can use if you choose too.

Skeleton Form:

Code: Select all

Username:
Name:
Gender:
Personality:
Extras:

Unique and fun ideas:
These are not needed but recommended for a fun unique entry!

- Comic displaying, past, relationships or an adventure
- Video with music and/or art, with audio or text telling a story
- A video with music displaying art (Art theft will be watched for, any videos must have a list of all art)
- A song made by you about the kia. (instrumental, or singing. Even just using audacity to make an original song is fine.)
- Arts and crafts (Sculptures, paper children ect)
- Poetry (A dramatic reading with music recorded would be interesting)
- Flash animations / Games (nothing too complex)

Please read below
For all the things above, I have to ask you to refrain from posting anything that is out of your comfort-zone. For any videos, you can change your voice, or just use text and you are in no way required to reveal your face. (In fact I would rather if you didnt for safety reasons) Also the stuff above are not required, if you would like to do a normal structured form that is totally fine and will not dock marks. The Kia was made to be a pirate Kiamara, I would like for that idea to stay but it not necessary Please have fun! Also any theft will not be tolerated <3 thank you.

End date: August 15th

This is a gorgeous design!
I may have to withdraw <3 Rooting for friends!

*You stumble lazily down the dock, scanning the area with equally as much enthusiasm as your walk. She told you she wanted to meet here for the interview. You pull a slightly destroyed piece of paper from your pocket and re-read the address for probably the 20th time, and check to make sure it matches the numbers on the dock house you just exited.* 'Looks 'bout right' you think to yourself as you sigh heavily. After a moment or two of just standing there and listening to the rolling bay water lapping at thepoles supporting the wooden walk-way, and the groaning and moaning of the tied sailboats, you take a seat leaning against the closest one. It is mostly a dark wood, and doesn't provide a comfortable lean, but it is better than standing. Just as you begin to settle in however; you hear bounding foot beats behind you. Within a few second, the sun is obscured from your face and bright magenta eyes of an upside-down Kiamara stare back at you. She cracks a wild grin and her red and pink cloth hat falls into your lap. Before you can even make a move to pick it up, she leaps from the boat's deck and lands infront of you. In one swift motion her long green tail nudges the hat from your lap, places it on her head, and she turns on her two hind paws to face you. Once again she flashes you a bright and playful grin, only with it, she extends a paw in your direction. " 'm Syrena, pleased to make ye'r acquaintance!"

If you may be so inclined, may you please listen to the song connected to the URL below? It greatly adds to the information you are about to read on this Kiamara. If you do open this song, I ask that you wait a few seconds as the song has a very cool introduction.

*Syrena sighs deeply and for the first time she takes on an expression that better matches her age. Gentle, wistful, and relaxed.* "I grew up in America, California to be exact, in a chapperel valley filled with ugly coyotes and skinny excuses for rabbits. It wasn't to terrible of a place. My family lived in a small band with another Kiamara unit, but I knew my family craved more. I embody my parents so holy, if you were to meet them... oh gosh if you could meet them..." *Looking down at her paws she closes her eyes and sighs again* "I look very similar to my mother, Renatta, but she had a lighter and more pinkish mane and lighter markings. My father, Swiftheart, was a heavier green, with a dark green mane, and very near black-blue stripes and spots. Both of them lived for fresh air. We climbed every valley for miles around, and swam through the hot murky water that some how managed not to be sucked back into the clouds in the disgusting heat. Always on the move. Until one day when I was about 10 months old, my mother had twisted her foot on a hunting trek the day before. We had lost the other Kia families father and their oldest son, and we were another days journey from the nearest fresh water source. I was being carried by the mother kia in the other family, but I can't remember her face... only her voice." *Syrena shivers visably and a faint growl rises in her throat* "The woman had gone mad. She had lost her mind along her with husband and her son, and her dehydration wasn't helping. She whispered to me how it my mother should have died with them, that my mother shouldn't have left them behind. It wasn't my mother's fault! Rena was faster than anyone in our tribe! She escaped because she was talanted, not because she used the others as a scapegoat!..." *She trails off, but returns her hot pink gaze to yours, eyes alive with an inner fire, but being held back by a wall of tears.* "I'll skipp the s***, some hunters had been chasing my group because Kiamara's were not yet easy to come by in California yet." *She moves a paw to rub at her eyes* "I told my father that evening of what the female had said to me, and how scared I was for mommy." *She pauses and turns to face you fully* "It broke into a fight, I don't remember anything of it, but I remember hot liquid rolling down my back as my mother limps quickly to the deck of a ship. She set me there and told me that I'd be safe with these humans, and that our family would be leaving for Florida." *Sniff sniff, sigh* "They never came, I left with the humans on that ship and spent a few years learning the ways of the sea with them until I was appointed first mate. We have become a sort of modern day explorers, adventuring from floridian docks to tiny islands that scatter about the Carribbean. I don't know how they knew, but I firmly believe that my parents placed me their first because they knew they wouldn't be able to escape the larger family alive. And their sacrifice has made all the difference in what my life was allowed to become."

*She shakes out her mane and leaps back onto her wooden vessel, you get up to follow her slinking form with your eyes only in the fading light, but she has disappeared into the cabin, assuming she needs some distance after the emotionally intense discussion that just occured. Yet soon, she chuckles lightly and hollers to you from the enclosed room, her voice coming from a slightly open window in the cabin* "I'm sure by now you are creating an image of my persona, and I am going to let you believe what you have come to comfort with."

*Finally, you begin to make out Syrena's figure padding out of the small on deck room, she lets the door slam behind her, and you can hear her claws clinking on the deck, and it gets louder as she gets closer. She stops and sits silently just above your head on the decks edge. Her bright eyes seem to glow in the dim light as she waits for your next question* "Yet another good question for those who aren't here. A mix of green tints, purple line markings, and magenta spots, rather lovely if I do say so myself."

"I tend to either look up at or into the eyes of any kia I so meet, I'm not as tall as one would think. But my height gives me an advantage, I can sneek into nearly any space I want to. If you know anything about Pirates you should know that this skill would prove helpful."



*You look up from your notes to find her staring down at you from the nose of her boat. Shuffling some papers you nod and thank her for her time. She beams back at you and says "It's my pleasure, it was nice to talk to someone again. I feel like I've been out at sea for eons." *She waves her tail and then steps down to walk you back to shore. Once you reach land, she throws you another one of those 100 watt smiles before bounding back to her boat, a nearly shapeless figure in the dark night, for all you can see are the shiney ruby eyes.*

In case you don't know where I got her name, you may need to watch the Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides. *Spoiler alert for those who haven't seen it* The mermaid captured by the pirates is named by a enslaved missionary; Philip Swift, as Syrena (Spanish for mermaid). Throught the movie Philip stands up for Syrena and demands that the pirates treat her kindly, even though mermaid as said to be evil. The final scene in the movie, the injured Philip runs to Syrena, who has been tied out of the water to die. As Swift releases her into a nearby delta, she kisses him (A kiss from a mermaid will prevent you from drowning according to this movie) and drags him into the sea with her.

I hope you give me great consideration, as I have put so much into winning this Kia I may not be the best artist, or have many friends on here that would help me make art, but I do believe that I am worthy to win this Kia. Thank you, and have a good day.


I hope you enjoyed reading my entry for Kiamara #316. I am so sorry if it seems long, wordy, or boring to you ;-; but I spent a lot of time on it and I hope you can appreciate that. I have entered for this kiamra because as soon as I saw her on the main thread I knew I would absolutly adore to roleplay her. I've yet to win a kiamara, perhaps because I am slightly picky or perhaps because I have a difficulty theorizing a aetheticallausey pleasing form. I really busted my rear on Syrena though because I had such a strong connection with her. I have 0 friends on CS so I hope my lack of art wasn't a bother I'm just starting out with digital design and only have my laptop to work with. If you find anything that goes against the rules before the set due date please notifiy me, I have read and re-read your guidlines multiple times, but you never know *Shrug*.


lineart color in by yours truly. Lines aren't mine. Design of the two Kias I am trying out for.

Anywho, thank you for your time, and I hope you consider me for this kia or any runners ups you may make

❝ Ｄｏｎ'ｔ . ｆｏｒｇｅｔ . ｔｏ . ｓｍｉｌｅ ❞

Hey there matey. If you should feel the need to know who I am,it's just the Lady Pirate. I do have a normal name,but then I would get caught,wouldn't I? And that's the point of the game,not to get caught. See,to know more about me,you would have to be dead. So do you want to be in a different state of living? Of course you don't.

But if you promise not to tell,I could reveal some...okay. I will. My name is Clarity. Who cares about what that means. I'm a lady. And my profession is a pirate. And if you wanted to know my personality,you would've picked it up earlier. I'll tell you a story,one of my best crime. The one that gave me my name.Okay,so before I was just a pirate.

It was a crisp,cold Autumn morning and while everyone was asleep,the pirates were excited. They had plans to make the biggest heist yet. We had plans to rob every room on the biggest boat crossing the seven seas,the Titanic. It was a big job,and most all of the crew consisted of men. I was the only female,as far as I know. But I was part of a special team of pirates who were supposed to steal from the first class. Challenge accepted. In order to do that,I had to dress up fancy. I didn't really like it,but if it made the other pirates like me more,I was all for it.

I was dressed like a lady and was carefully padding down the hall,trying to look happy and make eye contact. I went to the door of a room,and knew it was time to get started. Two-oh-three. My room. See each pirate was assigned to a room to make it a little easier. And I was assigned to a room of a handsome gentlemen who had a fine taste in woman. I knocked polity on his door. Tapping my rear paw,I waited a little nervously. I could tell I did it right once he opened the door. His face light up and he seemed happy to see me. On the other hand,I feel in love with him. Love at first sight. He was so handsome,and looked very nice. I couldn't believe I had to steal from him. Good thing he was somewhat drunk. "Hey lady. Are you one of those lady pirates?" I gulped. "N-n-no,I'm not. I heard you were...here. And I wanted to see you." "Fine with me. Why don't you come inside?" he asked,appearing to be slightly happy with himself. I carefully stepped into his fine room. "What a place you got here." I chatted in awe. Next time I go on a cruise,I need first class.

{song}

A black and white flag went up in the air
without a care. Shwashing and swishing
with all its willing. As you hear a call across the sea
you go, and check to see. You jump to surprise as there are pirates coming up the side!
Swords and all ready to slice down the Treasure chest's side! Soon you see a lady with
a shady golden earring. With red striped lace across her face, and a shine in the light with a slash of tail.
Soon you leap to your feet for the miss with a hiss. She smirks as a crab comes up her back and she release her magic
whack of illusion.
You go black in a snap.
Soon you wake up on the plank that leads you to your sinking death.
Theres that lady again with that shady glance, but with a pack full of treasure.
She soon smiles and walks up to your ear before you kok down below.
"Yo ho, here we go."
