Kalons-- a species with soft manes and even softer hearts.
Monitored in forests across the globe for years, these animals
have recently been declared naturally tame as well as sentient.
Scientists are asking the general population to consider adopting
Kalons for further study in their capabilities of intelligence.

mood-board of things you'd find in their room/describing their aesthetic:
- in honor of
me turning another year older and into more of an adult
a few days ago, this kalon is based on aesthetics *v*
the glasses are just an accessory + can be removed ++ the shine is a monstera leaf!!
it was inspired by cities, house plants, and afternoon light just before the sun sets. it also is covered w lots of freckles :00
i've really been interested in redecorating my room and just altogether having a space that is /mine/, so for the contest, come up with a mood-board/images of things you'd find in their room!
edits; standard: hair, shine; common: tail
limit of 2 extras
++writing less than or equal to 300 words per extra;
++up to two art pieces;
++can do combo of writing and art
you may rearrange your forms display, but don't decorate with extra images or quotes.
alternate fonts are fine.
Ends January 11th! at 11:59 pm MST **extended deadline see bottom of post**
[I start next semester on the 12th, so it may take a week or more for me to completely judge based
on the number of entrants.]
QUESTIONS

There are a few ways you can do this! You can use a free online moodboard creator like http://www.gomoodboard.com where you can upload pictures and it'll put them into a moodboard. Or, you can use any external art program you may have like Photoshop or paint tool Sai, and create a moodboard that way. Or, if you don't have access to such things, you can just list images (preferably as links) in your form that would show what their room is like.
Please don't sketch it out for the moodboard, find existing images or take your own. You can use a sketch or drawing of the room and how it looks pieced together as one of your extras (:
Do all of you understand what I mean when I say moodboard? I can clarify.
Essentially it's a collage of images that people use for inspiration and planning out what they want something to be influenced by, for example when decorating a room. It's not necessarily from their perspective of a moodboard they would have (although it could be), but I was more so picturing a board created by you that sort of gives an idea for what their room looks like or the sort of aesthetic styles they're into.

would a playlist be allowed as an extra :0?
Sure!

Also, is there any limit to how many images we can use for the moodboard?
And can we both make the moodboard and describe their aesthetic?
Edit; Ahh, sorry for asking so many questions, I just want to make sure that I'm doing everything right. Anyway, does the personality section have a word limit?? I know that the extras have a limit of 300 words each, but does that apply to the personality section as well?
First of all, thank you! but I didn't come up with the idea on my own. There was a kalon a while back with a similar contest. (:
There's no limit for the amount of images you want to include in your moodboard.
You can make the moodboard and describe their aesthetic, but the judging will focus more on the actual moodboard and character development.
If you also want to describe their aesthetic, I think that would have to count as an extra.
And nope, no word limit for the personality! I take into account character development when I judge, and I feel limiting that might restrain you all from growing the character effectively. That being said, huge walls of text are a bit of a turn off (they'rer kind of intimidating??) so try to break it up a bit if you do write a lot.
