Duinnes are an ancient race of tiny androgynous forest spirits. They are very social creatures and spend most of their time with and around other duinnes, however they usually are not very fond of humans. They are very small, and range in size from 4 to 8 inches tall when fully grown. They are all very unique, and will decorate themselves with flowers, jewelry, and even tattoos, much like humans do. They are often mistaken for fairies, however they do not have wings and they cannot fly. They spend most of the day sleeping, and their favorite beds are flowers. Duinnes eat primarily small berries, flowers, seeds, and root vegetables. Duinnes are excellent climbers, and have strong, stout fingers equipped with short claws that help with grip. They are very good at camouflaging themselves with their environment, and can be found hiding under rocks, leaves, and even pieces of loose bark. They are very crafty, and love to cause mischief.
This duinne is a very special ancient caracal spirit that lives in the deserts of Egypt. It likes to sit in the shade of scraggy desert trees, and suns itself in the hot African sun when its cold. It's tattoo means "eternal friend". For this contest, all you need to do is impress me! There's no form, you'll have to be creative and make one yourself. ^^
The end date for this contest is July 10th! Good luck, and have fun. :>
