SO. I cleaned through a bunch of my old characters a few months ago and found that there are MANY that I don't use anymore, many of which I'd completely forgotten. There was no point in me keeping them, as I no longer have any interest in using them, so I decided to modify their designs so that they actually looked decent and put them up for adoption. I'll only be posting a few at a time, though, as I need some time to locate, re-draw, and fix the designs of them all. I'm starting out with four, but there will be more. Hopefully, I'll find some good homes for them. :)

Rules:

1.) You MUST post a full bio. The personality should be at least 1 paragraph long (5 sentences) and the history should be at least two or three paragraphs. You are allowed to edit the bio after posting as long as the character you're trying for hasn't yet been adopted. Need help coming up with something good? Try this topic: natti-s-guide-to-creating-characters-t34118.html

(*Note: These characters did once have small histories/personalities, but again, they're old characters and were never very developed. If you'd rather build on what they already had than start from scratch, PM me and I'd be happy to give you the little bit I've got.)

2.) You MUST post a drawing of the character drawn by you. ABSOLUTELY NO LINEARTS OR RENDERS ALLOWED. It's ok if you're not a great artist; I'm not judging by the art quality, I just want to see that you care enough about adopting this character to actually draw something yourself.

3.) This topic is NOT first-come-first-serve, it's first-GOOD-BIO-first-serve. However, if you need to take some time to get your bio together (which I recommend, as a bio that you created in 5 minutes or less probably won't win you the character anyways), but are still worried that someone else will come by first, that's ok, just post that you're interested in adopting whichever one you're trying for. I will wait for you to post your bio before picking one. If nobody posts a good enough bio, nobody gets the character, no matter how few or how many try.

4.) Everything is changeable EXCEPT breed, gender, and markings--in fact, I suggest name changes, but they're not required. Of course, I don't actually have much other information than breed/gender/markings to give unless you PM me for the previous character details, but whatever.

5.) If you win a character, please DON'T make a character page for him or her on the Sources UNLESS he or she is CLOSELY related to the Source material.

6.) You may try for as a many as you like, but that doesn't mean you'll get any. It still depends on the bios.


Read these rules carefully, please. :3 Read twice if necessary.


Now, on to the characters looking for homes:


Name: Eninai (eh-nee-nai)
Gender: Female
Breed: Mixed breeds; exact lineage unknown, but there is some husky in her.

(*If you can come up with an exact breed without changing the design, you may, but that breed must come in this coat pattern. For example, no making her a wolf or a labrador because, at least as far as I know, they don't come in this pattern. Photo evidence is preferred.)

Name: Thunder (because he was afraid of thunder. XD)
Gender: Male
Breed: Chihuahua

ADOPTED BY ANGEL DREAMER

Name: Shiitake (which, by the way, is a type of mushroom. Please change it. XD)
Gender: Male
Breed: German Shepherd (Yes, they can have similar markings to this.)


More to come as I find and edit old characters.

Is it okay if the "unknown" brown male wolf is associated with Alaki's old pack? :3 He'd be perfect for what I have in mind!

Absolutely! You can do whatever you want with them. ;)

I actually have a role for the Unknown male wolf with one of my newer characters. He would be the father of my character Reyna (she doesn't have a page yet) and would help me to develop her story even more. If I did that I would probably design one or two siblings for Reyna who would be his children. Would you be okay with that?

(The reason for making a sibling or two would follow an idea I have for Reyna and her father to search for her siblings due to separation from an event when they were little. Reyna is the adoptive daughter of Aniu, so the story would contain that her father didn't know that she was alive. It would be a reunion of sorts with her siblings being found.)

Go ahead. XD Again, you can do whatever you want with them. XD

Here's my entry at last!! :,3

MORE WILL BE ADDED IN RED AND BOLD!

Name: Malachi (Mal-uh-kai)

Age: about 7-8

Breed: Brown Wolf

Gender: Male

Personality: Wise, Loyal, Tough, was the quick thinker in his younger days. Has a very strong sense of duty, and is not easily distracted, however he is weighted down by his years. He is very quiet and usually very serious; He is not one for joking any more. On the inside, he tends to worry a little too much over things of the past.
Tends to be superstitious, and is a strict and firm believer in the Spirits of Aniu and Nava. He likes to be in touch with his surroundings as much as possible.

History: not much is known about his earlier years, most of it is rumor or speculation. It is believed that when he was young, he belonged to a different pack. He was born an only cub, and more of a peaceful soul rather than rambunctious and overly energetic.. it was thought that his lack of temper brought shame to his pack.. and wouldn't amount to much at all. His pup-life was that of an omega, and he soon got sick of it, and ran away to prove a point. He found himself far from his pack and lost very near the two-leg town of Nome.

Love Interest: Kuleck

Pack Rank: Former Warrior, Mentor, Now is an Advisor and Elder of the pack

As my character: He’d be a great addition to Alaki’s story—As well as a developing factor in the history of the current pack… He has a nice design and he’d be fun to draw.

Pictures: below! More soon to come!

You know what, Angel, I've seen you work with developing your characters before, and you more often than not to a fantastic job; plus, what you have there is already a good start. You can go ahead and have him. c:

(By the way, I like the name you chose! X3)

Congratulations Dreamer. I know that you'll use him more than I would have. C;
