Well, Kyser and Maria are officially mates now :D And Retro_Rollerskates and I need YOU to help design them! There is already one pup created and Rush Hour(nork) is designing another. But as for the others, well, that's where you come in!

Useful Info:
Kyser's Page - http://baltosource.timduru.org/en/chars/Kyser/3768.html
Maria's Page - http://baltosource.timduru.org/en/chars/Maria/3850.html
Kyra's Page - http://baltosource.timduru.org/en/chars ... /6165.html
Maria's Fanfics - http://baltosource.timduru.org/en/fanfi ... /1707.html
Kyser's Mate Contest - viewtopic.php?f=29&t=25949&start=0

No, you do not have to read through every thing on those but it will help you make a better pup if you get a background check on some of the characters. Kyra is the already created pup.

What We're Looking For:
-Originality. An entry that stands out (for the RIGHT reasons).
-Genetics. We want them to look somewhat like their parents.
-Believable and interesting personality. Stuff like 'tomboy' and 'emo' doesn't cut it.
-A beefy and believable bio brings brilliant bragging rights! (How's that for an alliteration? XD)

Here is a blank bio to fill out, delete the stuff in parenthesis. Anything not in parenthesis must stay the same. If you'd like to add anything, go for it!

Biography:
Code: Select all
[b]Name:[/b]
[b]Name Origin:[/b] (Not required.)
[b]Gender:[/b]
[b]Breed:[/b] 50% Greyhound, 50% Alaskan Malamute.
[b]Parents:[/b] Kyser and Maria
[b]Personality:[/b] (Elaborate!)
[b]Likes:[/b]
[b]Dislikes:[/b]
[b]Fears:[/b] (And give reason/s why)
[b]Weaknesses:[/b] (Can be physical or mental, be creative!)
[b]Build/Genetics:[/b] (Again, elaborate. Look at Kyra's page to see what I mean.)
[b]Plans:[/b] (I don't want you to work out a whole history, but I want you to have a general idea of what you want to do with the character, as well as whether you will use them for fan arts, images etc.)
[b]Relationship With Family:[/b] (Are they the dominant one of the litter? Runt? Mummy's boy? Do they prefer the company of friends or family? Detail!)


Rules and About the Winners:
-Everything above/below applies.
-Enter as much as you like.
-Linearts and renders are permitted, but in most cases; Drawings > Renders > Linearts.
-The winners will be decided after much deliberation from Retro and I.
-There will be probably a maximum of five winners.
-The pups will still belong to you if you win, however their history etc will need to be discussed.
-Have fun and please put effort into your entry.

Prizes are being discussed by Retro_Rollerskates and I. I know this seems like a lot but I/we don't want this to be a standard generic pup contest. Maria and Kyser are important characters to us and their pups are important as well. I do sincerely hope you guys join :mrgreen:

(BTW, Retro, if there's anything you'd like me to change/add don't hesitate to ask!)

Awesomeness Rush, I'm guessing his relationship with his parents might not be the best XD I love him though, he is brilliant. I might do a pic of him an Kyra together sometime...

CelesteRose- Oh my... she is beautiful! Amazing entry, I love her! Really awesome bio, too, and I'm not just saying that! I also love it how you gave her the weak bones; very creative! She's a definite chance for a winner!

Ooo I want to have a go at this, I have never done a pup design competition before.
If you don't take one or both of them as pups, then I will probably change their design a bit and their bios and keep them.

Name: Ayana
Name Origin: Ethiopia (means ‘beautiful flower’)
Gender: Female
Breed: 50% Greyhound, 50% Alaskan Malamute.
Parents: Kyser and Maria
Personality: Ayana has never been considered shy, but no one has ever called her quiet either. She is definitely not shy, but she is usually quiet, but can produce a mouthful when needs be. She can be an amazingly deep thinker, like her father, but her deep thinking often becomes pure and simple daydreaming. She has a tendency to let her imagination run wild, and sometimes suffers from hallucinations if she lets herself get too immersed in her fantasies. Just as she is sometimes portrayed as quiet, quiet happens to be her favorite amount of noise, the less the better. But a persistent natural or peaceful noise she find pleasant as well, like a stream or the sound of rain. She loves all wet weather, ranging from drizzle to the biggest thunderstorms she can find, and swimming is a favored past-time of hers.
Likes: Thunderstorms and anything to do with water, getting wet and quiet places. However she also loves sunshine, so no matter what the weather she generally likes it. Quiet places that are either in the sunshine or in the rain, and preferably with some kind of relaxing sound, and being able to delve deep into her daydreams, but not too deep.
Dislikes: Having a hallucination, and possibly embarrassing herself or hurting herself. Lots of noise, or screeching noises like nails down a blackboard (shudder) or metal scraping. Getting too cold is a pain to her, she can stand heat pretty well, but she has her father’s short coat which makes her less able to keep out the cold.
Fears: Ever letting her hallucinations get the better of her, she always describes her experience of her hallucinations as “a rocky rollercoaster ride where you can’t see the next bit of the track”, they are scary for her, and she is always worried she will get hurt or hurt someone else, especially any friends or family that may be trying to help.
Weaknesses: Sometimes Ayana either doesn’t say something when she should, or says something when she shouldn’t. Either way she usually ends up angering someone or upsetting someone, and that usually makes her even more reclusive and harder to reach with words, and so the problem cannot be resolved with her, which usually makes the situation worse.
Build/Genetics: She is smaller than her father, but only slightly, and has the same fur length as him as well, which makes the cold even worse for her. Both her ears are flopped, and she has inherited her mother’s brown eyes. Her colouration is mostly her father’s, but her ears and legs are the same silvery colour as her mother’s. She hasn’t got any spots like her father, and her tail is also tipped with her mother’s dark grey. Her paws are quite dainty for her breed, but her body had the proper shape of a greyhound’s.
Plans: I plan to use her for a possible fanfic, but definitely for rping and fanart. Her fanfic would probably be about her early life in Nome and how a half greyhound can adapt to survive in freezing cold climates, you know the kind of stuff.
Relationship With Family: She loves her mother dearly, her father…not as much but still very very much. Whatever brothers or sisters she will have she will try to keep the peace with, but no matter what happens her parents will always be the most important people in her life.
Theme Song: Said It All by Take That

Name: Brac
Name Origin: Wales (means ‘free’)
Gender: Male
Breed: 50% Greyhound, 50% Alaskan Malamute.
Parents: Kyser and Maria
Personality: A very laidback and easygoing person, he enjoys hot summer days and just relaxing with friends. Beaches are an especial favorite spot of his as the mixture of cool, salty sea breeze, the warm softness of the sand and the gentle heat of the sun are just perfect for him. He will probably spend most of his day with his eyes shut and on the floor, sleeping or just relaxing. Music intrigues him, but he enjoys listening to it none the less. He feels he has no need to ever leave the safety of his human home, and has no intention of running off to look for adventure, instead his perfect life would be just as it is, calm and carefree. He likes human food over dog food (who wouldn’t), but especially loves the smells and sounds of a busy kitchen, and so he usually spends his mornings in the kitchen round about breakfast time. He is not actively looking for a relationship, but if someone catches his eye who knows. He considers himself pretty popular, and he is because of his relaxed and fun attitude towards life.
Likes: Lying somewhere warm, beaches are his favorite. Sleeping is the next best thing to just relaxing, but he finds it hard to sleep in the day time. Human music and food, he loves the guitar and if anyone starts to play it he will sit by them and happily listen. Busy kitchens and busy areas in general. In his words (not mine) he said that ‘a pretty little girl struttin’ her stuff on the beach would just make my day, especially if that pretty little girl would spend a little more time with me’.
Dislikes: Miserable weather, he just loves the sun too much. He hates loud music or days that are just TOO hot. Mud he loathes and detests, it gets stuck on his paws and just feels horrible to him. He would hate to be turned down by someone, or to lose any of his friends in an argument. Arguments in general he hates because it ruins his relaxed atmosphere and he finds he can never win one.
Fears: He fears that that pretty little girl he so often talks about will get close to him, but then leave him for someone else, or just because she doesn’t like him, any reasons like that. He just mostly fears rejection, but it is not a massively big fear of his, more like a large worry.
Weaknesses: Music, he will stop whatever he is doing just to listen to it. And also girls he has his eye on, they would be able to influence him easily and use him to do things he normally wouldn’t do.
Build/Genetics: He has a similar build as his father, but is the same size as his mother. He has quite thick fur that stays flat against his body. His markings are more like his father’s, but with his mother’s colouring in quite a few of them. He only has liver/brown coloured spots, unlike his father’s many coloured ones. One of his ears is slightly more stuck up than the other one, but still not very much. He has got his father’s green eyes, but his mother’s charming smile.
Plans: Probably the same as Ayana, he will be in the same fanfic as her and in quite a lot of fanart, and depending on how Ayana’s fanfic goes I may make a separate series for him. Of course he will be used in rp’s, as are all my characters.
Relationship With Family: He loves his family a lot, but he prefers the company of his friends. When he is with his family he is the peace keeper and the one who sets a good mood. He tries to keep his sister Kyra under control, but usually fails, and he usually doesn’t talk to Pac as he feels strongly against how he treats his friends.
Theme Song: Banana Pancakes by Jack Johnson (If you don’t know who he is then look his songs up on Youtube, I love them :mrgreen: )

Tromacom - Wow, great entries! I'll need you to provide a full-body pic, even if it's just a lineart to see all the markings. But the render that you have is great and I really like your bios! Ayana's hallucinations are a cool idea and Brac's fascination with music is pretty neat ;)

Husky5 - I appreciate your entering, but if you want a chance at winning you'll need a much more detailed bio and a picture.

---

And I'm really happy with the entries I'm seeing! I'm glad the you guys seem to care about your entries.

YaAaYYYYy!! :mrgreen: This contests up and running! And I must say that I'm loving the designs, people. ^^

But....I was wondering if maybe I could make a pup, too. :oops: I know my designing skills aren't great, but after all, yu couldn't expect me to miss out on all the fun, could you? :P So that brings our total down to...four winners?


Anyway, I GIVE THIS TOPIC A MEGAHUUUGEBUMP!!! :D :D :D
