Unlogged so I can ask this.

I got you, obviously. I'm working on the image now, however. getting a personality from any of the songs is beyond my capabilities. Would you mind if I just gave you the image and the song I chose, or is a personality coming with this dragon absolutely required..?

Xalia · Post by **Xalia** » Fri Aug 05, 2005 5:22 pm

I think Drakiera's on Hiatus but a personality usually isn't a requirement so I'm sure it'll be fine...

Unlogged · Post by **Unlogged** » Fri Aug 05, 2005 5:34 pm

According to her post, it is

Lerial · Post by **Lerial** » Fri Aug 05, 2005 6:04 pm

Perhaps just list the song you choose for the personality and, if you want to, apologize for not actually creating the text of the personality? If you draw the image with the type of personality that the song implies in mind and then just list the song... I think that would be enough. Unless she says otherwise, it's what I would do in your position.
And I think that may be what she means by a personality drawn from the song; just take the song and let it be your inspiration. I think that if she's asking you to draw a personality from the song, she can probably do that bit herself, as we tend to anyway.
bah, I'm circumlocuting again.
My thought: draw the image based on the song you choose, and worry about the personality bit later.

Drakiera · Post by **Drakiera** » Fri Aug 05, 2005 9:18 pm

I should have clarified ... like I said, inspiration had just smacked me when I wrote that. o.O; I could have sworn I put an (optional) in there for that ... but, go figure. :/

Personality would be optional (much like the name, actually) ... so, if you really couldn't think up a personality, that's cool.

Just listing the song the dragon is based on would be excellent.

Mostly, I want to infer a (sense of) personality from the image, which would (ideally) be based on the songs given (or a similarly themed song, come to think of it ... but I really like those songs, which is why I nabbed 'em.)

Does that help?

I don't want to make this super-difficult on anyone. o.O

edit: cuz I'm a dork.

Fuzzy · Post by **Fuzzy** » Sun Aug 07, 2005 2:11 pm

Cy! I got yoooooooooooooooouuuuuuu!

[/pokemonjoke]

*snicker* ^ ^

But you knew that, I squealed. X3 *pets*

THIS is a "WTFdragon"

It's naturally very balloony, as it's got Biohazard Demon blood in them (a rubbery gas-demon from Septus Alpha solar system in Nonanut). Its face is actually its face ^^ And it even grew little nubby horns. The transparent areas are the blatant balloony bits, while it lacks the spiky fingers and legs of the Biohazard Demon. Its tail and head-spheres are balloons too, though opaque, and it can float around (those wings stay around it all the time. No one knows why, hence part of the WTF of its name). ^ ^ It can inflate itself to any size and its innards are contained in a seperate sack (which thankfully is opaque so you can't *see* it when the critter inflates)! It has a breath weapon that smells noxious and is akin to chlorine (if male) or rotting eggs (if female) that it uses, and they absorb pollution like it was candy (for them, it is)!

Personality: The WTFdragon species are real partiers! Due to their biohazard demon heritage (no one really knows what the dragon part of them is, not even the lab that created them, though there's rumor that the dragon part might even be from a Samoyed dog due to fluffiness!) the WTFdragons are very mischievous, but usually harmless. In this one's case, mischief is most often done by stealing ravers' glowsticks and drugs and doing bizarre things with them!

Heeeeeeeeeeere's Buttmuncher XD (Yes, that is his name- they usually acquire 'name deeds' like WedgiePicker or Dances-with-Girls). Named for his knack of biting back-jeans pockets!

~ABOUT THE IMAGE~

Colour(s): blue-ish
Features: furry
Species: - Kirin Dragon (a distant relative of the Reindeer Dragons)
Element(s): wind
Theme: ice storm
Gender: male
Name: Eskuku (indonesian, ice hoof)

Well, he's furry!

Rachael · Post by **Rachael** » Sun Aug 07, 2005 5:56 pm

Shard, that's wicked cool! And Fuzzy... Hee, somewhat scary. ^__~

Fuzzy! I got you babe. XD

About the Image
Colour(s): Deep Red, Brown, Black
Features: Fur, Runes... Not so much, Gemstones!
Species: Dragon (who happens to show many Ojee mutations.)
Element(s): If Sultryness were an element...
Theme: Exotic Sexiness!
Gender: Female
Name: (I wanted to call her La Bamba, but settled on:) Amantha. Of course, change it as you will. =D

Okay, some notes... Those tones you see all over her body act as storage for magical energy. She uses part of this energy to fuel her shift from this bipedal form to a more draconic one (quadrapedal, would use the bones od her knucles to stand on). Her eyes, hard to tell, are actually green. Her horn and the ruby (yep, ruby) on her tail always glow... Because she is that darn cool, and because they act as focal points for her in communication, telekinesis, and magic working. She is far from a mage. Most of what she can do involves mind powers. If her horn were ever removed, she would essentially be mute. She can not talk out loud. She has no capacity for verbal speech. She's furry. I want to pet her. XD Everything is up to you. Can you see the bat dragon? =D

I really hope you like her!

Fuzzy · Post by **Fuzzy** » Sun Aug 07, 2005 7:11 pm

OMGOMGHOLYCRAP! XD That's nuts! x3
