All yall been waitin' for a contest? Well we're having another one! We're going to try to have a bigger one every two months with a smaller, more unique one in between. The bigger ones will usually have two winners, but may result in three if there is a third person the judges feel deserves to win also. They will typically be 'free-pick', where you can pick your own element[name], design, gender, and all that good stuff. You'll only have to fill out a form and draw a human-form picture. Don't forget creativity- that goes a long way. Previous SoE entries can be reentered in these contests for another shot at victory, but you cannot enter a character more than twice.
The smaller ones will most likely only have one winner, unless there are two who we feel should win. They'll vary a lot. We may decide to pick the element, for instance. We may want you to draw the dragon form instead of the human. We may want you to write something, like a small story. You cannot reenter spirits in these contests, but if your design does not win, you can re-enter it in a free-pick contest.
Most contests will probably last two weeks on average, but may vary.


For this contest; to make it easier on some people; you just have to either form. This is a custom contest; so you may make up the names yourself instead of me giving you one. You may also re-enter one you may have entered in a previous contest.

PLEASE. ELEMENT NAMES ONLY.
I can't stress this enough. No "Jerry's" or "Xiang le Coco's". They MAY have odd names as their NICKNAME though.

Rules;

1. Keep all elements... Elementy. Basically don't choose something stupid and not element-ish.
2. No using names too close to another's without permission. (Example; If you want to use 'Snow' you'd have to ask KaiKenNatsuki because she owns 'Ice'.)
3. Again, just restating what I said earlier... Thier name HAS to be what their element is. (Ex; Wind = Wind).
4. All dragon forms must resemble a eastern dragon somewhat.
5. No whining or complaining.
6. Listen to the Mods. They have power here.
7. No bribing Judges in any form or way.
8. Don't steal anyones designs.
9. If you don't win you have to remove the SoE features from the character if you wish to keep it; or you can save it and re-enter it in a future competition.

Your prize if you win will be the SoE you made. We may choose multiple winners.

Glow will be highly in charge of this competition, and a major Mod of the SoE specie itself. Since I am bad at setting dates; she will help me with all the major things. Disobey her and I will let her eat you. No mercy.

Good Luck! Heres the form.

Code: Select all
[u]Name/Element:[/u]
[u]Gender:[/u]
[u]Personality:[/u]
[u]Likes:[/u]
[u]Dislikes:[/u]
[u]Habits/Hobbies:[/u]
[u]Other:[/u]


FAQ;

What do Judges usually look for in the forms?;

It varies upon the Judge. Some look for design, name, or a well filled form with detail. Just be very creative and unique. C:

Can I use the name ______?;

If it isn't physical, nor a noun, element, Scientific Table Element, or weather, then no, go away.

Is our SoE mostly judged upon art?;

Again; this is up to the Judge. But no; I will always make sure the form counts for alot too.

Can I use a different media besides oekaki?;

You sure can.

Can I use Life/Death?;

No.

Can we order art?;

Yes, but your own is preferred.

Can I order a custom/buy an SoE?;

No.

Why can -insert name here- have this odd name and I can't have one like it?;

Usually odd names are due to certain reason. They may be a close friend or made a SoE before they were a specie.

How many times can I enter per contest?;

Two.

Can I keep my design if I lose?;

Yes, but you MUST remove the SoE traits. (Ears/Horns/Tail)

If one of mine wins, does that mean my other one wins also?;

No.

If I win; will I be allowed to make more?;

No, all people who got a SoE through contest or not a custom member have to enter contests to get more.

Can I use a name in a other language?;

No. But it can be their nickname.

If I cannot make a form on oekaki, what do I do?;

PM it to Me AND Glow. (Otherwise it might get lost.)

Can we reserve names?;

No, unless your a member.

Can there be a list of names that are taken?;

There is... -facepalm-

How long do SoE live?;

They can live almost forever, its unknown. SoE commonly get sick in their later 100's and die from that though.

Do they breathe their element?;

Depends on what the element is. On most cases; yes.

Can SoE have wings?;

No. They are based off of Eastern's, who are wingless.

Can my SoE be a -insert type here- dragon?;

No; they aren't a specific breed. They take the appearance of a dragon that resembles an Eastern.

No rule breaking, guys. Can't wait to see the entries.
We are all small on the wings of time, twirling about through the universe as a tiny mote twirls in the wind.
