After thinking a long while about where I wanted Paleo's character to go, I had realized I had a difficult time doing anything with him. Since I want him to be in a better home, I decided I would run a readopt for him so that he can get to a better place where he might be used and have more inspiration for someone.
All of his previous info (and art) can be found here - you MUST keep track of the art and art credits when you're done, his site will eventually be deleted as well (so it would be best to save the art to your own site or computer). Also keep in mind that this guy has a family (which can be found on his page) and you must keep them related to their families.
Paleo is mated and has three kids (and a couple of grandkids I believe) which can be found on his website page. You must keep him related to his family in the way that he is, but the relationships he has with his relatives is up to you. You need not roleplay him with his relatives, but you can if you want to. You also don't have to have him act specifically older because of this.
You cannot change his name or gender, but you may feel free to change his personality and make him a blank(-ish) slate (or you can keep his personality and info if you really liked it). In order to win Paleo, it will be a small "impress me" with a 750 word limit and 3 art piece limit. There are no restrictions on what you must do or how you do it, simply make me believe you'll care for him. You also don't need to use up all 750 words or 3 art pieces (I may boost the limits should need arise, but it is unlikely).
The contest will officially end on September 19th (extension possible).

Most of the voters actually wanted it ended early, but since there were enough votes otherwise (and a request), I'm going to keep the end date on Saturday the 19th of September. I will be judging it later in the evening, so you should still have time to do some work in the morning.

- Coding does not count as words in the word count
- Decorative pictures, borders, banners, feather pictures, pictures of other plumies, etc. do not count in art limit

If you section off an area and put it as "Credits" I will not add them to the word count. Also, I won't count titles if they're obvious and clearly titles that section text. For an example of this, check out a form I did a while ago. The titles like "The Poet of the Skies," "Preface," and "Likes/Dislikes" will not count in the word count. However, quotes, lyrics, phrases and similar things will count (like the quotes in my form).
