    Clutching Round 21--CLOSED Empty Clutching Round 21--CLOSED

    Post  Kitsuneko Fri Aug 28, 2009 11:32 am

    Gold Illiath, ridden by Justine & Bronze Saoth, ridden by H'sache
    13 eggs, no gold egg


    1. The quiz can help your chances of getting the color you want, but the final result is still a matter of chance. Please don't whine or ask to redo it if you get something other than you wanted.
    2. You may send up to two candidates to a single clutch, but there's no limit for your total number of dragons. Please complete a new form for each candidate. (Different Name/Gender/Quiz thing for each candidate. I don't mind if they're both on the same post).
    3. There's no limit to the total number of candidates accepted for a clutch, so if it ends up more candidates than eggs, your character may not Impress. Better luck next time.
    4. Any candidates who don't Impress would have to be submitted again to the next clutch, but there's no limit to how many times they can stand.
    5. In general, girls Impress gold and green, boys Impress blue, brown, and bronze. Male-female and female-male pairings are rare but possible, depending on availability of suitable candidates and the dragons' own quirky personalities. Sexuality doesn't enter into it.
    6. You are allowed to name your dragons after they impress, but they must end in -th like all all Pernese dragons.
    7. Dragons are not considered adults until a full cycle has been completed, three weeks after their hatching; the rider list contains information about what clutch they hatched from and whether they are considered adults or weyrlings--this will be updated as soon as possible after the Hatching is posted.
    8. The only information I need for your candidate is name, gender and quiz answers. Dragons come with their color and a personality trait or quirk. You need never develop the characters beyond this, but embellish them however you want. There may be a roleplay area if anyone's interested.
    --If you're going to use Shard's Candidate Generator, would you mind expanding on your answer a bit when you have one of the alternate responses? It gets a bit difficult to judge with what basically amounts to a blank answer.

    Reply to this post and fill out the following form:

    Your Name:
    Candidate's Name:
    Future Rider Name, if Male:
    Gender:
    Fill out the following quiz. Just a simple, 'a', 'b', 'c', is required, but feel free to elaborate if you want.
    Assume there's an extra answer, 'Other' if you're not satisfied with the given answers.

    1. What color do you particularly want to Impress?
    a. Gold
    b. Bronze
    c. Brown
    d. Blue
    e. Green
    f. Doesn't matter, I'll take anything!

    2. Any colors you DO NOT want to get?
    a. Gold
    b. Bronze
    c. Brown
    d. Blue
    e. Green
    f. Nope, I'm fine with any of them

    3. Extrovert or Introvert?
    a. I love to gossip and be around people and show off.
    b. Yeah, for the most part, I'm pretty extroverted.
    c. I like being part of a crowd, but not the center of attention.
    d. Friends are nice, but I like plenty of time to myself as well.
    e. Ugh, just go away.

    4. Nervous about the Hatching?
    a. Are you kidding? I'll be the first one on the sands.
    b. I'm getting a little jittery and impatient.
    c. I just want to get it over with already.
    d. I don't care, I probably won't Impress anyway.
    e. Wow, it's almost time for the Hatching already? I barely noticed the time passing by.
    f. Those dragons can take as long as they want to hatch, I'll be right against the wall when they do, anyway.
    g. Huh? What Hatching?

    5. Are you a leader, or a follower?
    a. Sorry, I'm uh...allergic to responsibility.
    b. I don't think I'd like being in charge. I'd rather just keep my head down and do what I'm told.
    c. I could lead if I had to, but I'm more comfortable taking orders than giving them.
    d. I'd be a great leader!
    e. Get in line, peons! I'm in charge here...What do you mean, I'm not even a dragonrider yet?

    6. Someone played a mean-spirited prank on another candidate. What do you do?
    a. Snicker quietly to myself, glad that my plan worked perfectly.
    b. Feel a little guilty about how they took it, but still congratulate myself on a job well done.
    c. Okay, I didn't actually do it, but I still feel a bit guilty for laughing.
    d. Laugh my head off and congratulate whoever did it.
    e. Roll my eyes and studiously ignore the commotion.
    f. Help the victim clean up the mess.
    g. Dangit, whoever pranked me is going to get a fist in the face when I find them!
    h. I may laugh it off now, but wait until you see my revenge...

    7. Some of your friends dare you to go somewhere dangerous. What do you do?
    a. I'm totally gonna win that bubbly pie/mark/useless trinket, no problem!
    b. Of course not...What? I'm not scared...look, I'll go right in there while you scaredy-cats stay here...oh crap.
    c. I'd dare them right back. All or none!
    d. Yeah right. I'm not stupid enough to throw myself into danger for some ridiculous contest.
    e. But it's like...dark in there and stuff, right? Too scary for me.
    f. Trick them into going instead, and then call the Candidate Master.

    8. You find someone's stray pet canine. What do you do?
    a. Hug it and feed it and love it and call it George!
    b. Take care of it until I find its owner.
    c. Maybe give it some food and water, but let it find its own way home.
    d. Ignore it.
    e. Get away from me, you mangy mutt!
    f. Kick it.

    Your Name: Wolfram

    Candidate's Name: Mela
    Future Rider Name, if Male: n/a
    Gender: Female

    1. What color do you particularly want to Impress?
    f. Doesn't matter, I'll take anything!

    Anything will be fun!

    2. Any colors you DO NOT want to get?
    f. Nope, I'm fine with any of them

    I mean it! Any dragon that wants to have me's perfectly fine!

    3. Extrovert or Introvert?
    b. Yeah, for the most part, I'm pretty extroverted.

    I like to joke around and talk and be friendly with everyone! Though I'm nowhere near as close with anyone as I am with my older sister.

    4. Nervous about the Hatching?
    b. I'm getting a little jittery and impatient.

    Oh yea, I can't wait for the eggs to crack!

    5. Are you a leader, or a follower?
    d. I'd be a great leader!

    Cause people like me, and I know how to tell them to do stuff.

    6. Someone played a mean-spirited prank on another candidate. What do you do?
    f. Help the victim clean up the mess.

    Mean pranks aren't nice. I don't like seeing people upset!

    7. Some of your friends dare you to go somewhere dangerous. What do you do?
    e. But it's like...dark in there and stuff, right? Too scary for me.

    I could get hurt or something!

    8. You find someone's stray pet canine. What do you do?
    a. Hug it and feed it and love it and call it George!

    Puppy!!!!!


    Candidate's Name: Kai
    Future Rider Name, if Male: n/a
    Gender: Female

    1. What color do you particularly want to Impress?
    c. Brown

    Good solid dragons. Leadership opportunities if you want'em, or you can just be a wingrider without anyone thinking less of you.

    2. Any colors you DO NOT want to get?
    a. Gold

    Too much pressure. And you're stuck on the Sands all the time.

    3. Extrovert or Introvert?
    d. Friends are nice, but I like plenty of time to myself as well.

    And specifically friends who know when to leave stuff alone. I love my sister and all, but she tends to pry too much.

    4. Nervous about the Hatching?
    f. Those dragons can take as long as they want to hatch, I'll be right against the wall when they do, anyway.

    I see no good reason to get worked up over it.

    5. Are you a leader, or a follower?
    c. I could lead if I had to, but I'm more comfortable taking orders than giving them.

    It's not that I'm more comfortable taking orders per se, it's just that I don't usually want that responsibility. But if no one else will, I've no problem stepping up to the plate.

    6. Someone played a mean-spirited prank on another candidate. What do you do?
    e. Roll my eyes and studiously ignore the commotion.

    Stupid children...

    7. Some of your friends dare you to go somewhere dangerous. What do you do?
    d. Yeah right. I'm not stupid enough to throw myself into danger for some ridiculous contest.

    See above comment.

    8. You find someone's stray pet canine. What do you do?
    c. Maybe give it some food and water, but let it find its own way home.

    I'm not going to let it starve...

    Your Name: EK
    Candidate's Name: Livifleuris
    Future Rider Name, if Male: L'fleur
    Gender: Male

    1. What color do you particularly want to Impress?
    c. Brown. Hard working and strong, big enough to be noticed but not flashy enough so that they can blend into the crowd, too. That's a dragon after my own heart.

    2. Any colors you DO NOT want to get?
    f. Nope, I'm fine with any of them. Like anyone would turn down a dragon..

    3. Extrovert or Introvert?
    b. Yeah, for the most part, I'm pretty extroverted. I like the attention, and I like shooting the breeze with other people. But it's nice being able to step back and not be noticed sometimes, too.

    4. Nervous about the Hatching?
    a. Are you kidding? I'll be the first one on the sands. Hatching dragons? I'm there.

    5. Are you a leader, or a follower?
    a. Sorry, I'm uh...allergic to responsibility. I could do it fine if I wanted to, it's just that I don't. You know. Want to. Better if things are someone else's responsibility.

    6. Someone played a mean-spirited prank on another candidate. What do you do?
    a. Snicker quietly to myself, glad that my plan worked perfectly. That was so, so worth it. What's better is that I didn't get caught. I bet they don't even suspect me..

    7. Some of your friends dare you to go somewhere dangerous. What do you do?
    d. Yeah right. I'm not stupid enough to throw myself into danger for some ridiculous contest. Now if the stakes were high enough, maybe, but I'd better get something pretty damn good out of it.

    8. You find someone's stray pet canine. What do you do?
    b. Take care of it until I find its owner. I always liked dogs. Nice and dependable, and as long as you feed 'em, they're loyal to a fault.

    ---

    Your Name: EK
    Candidate's Name: Chaeye
    Gender: Female

    1. What color do you particularly want to Impress?
    b. Bronze. I'm here to fight. I'm here to win. Bronzes are the best at both. We will be a good match.

    2. Any colors you DO NOT want to get?
    a. Gold. They are too much of a liability out there.

    3. Extrovert or Introvert?
    d. Friends are nice, but I like plenty of time to myself as well. Emphasis on plenty. I have better things to do than sit around chatting with strangers about nothing important.

    4. Nervous about the Hatching?
    b. I'm getting a little jittery and impatient. I would like to finish up my Candidacy as soon as possible so my dragon and I can start training.

    5. Are you a leader, or a follower?
    d. I'd be a great leader. I just need to make sure that I get some great followers so that we can work best together.

    6. Someone played a mean-spirited prank on another candidate. What do you do?
    i. Other. Tell the Candidate Master. This is no time for stupid pranks and games. It is especially no time for malicious ones that can hurt others. The Weyr needs as many riders as it can get.

    7. Some of your friends dare you to go somewhere dangerous. What do you do?
    f. Trick them into going instead, and then call the Candidate Master. Serves them right. I hope that they get disqualified for this.

    8. You find someone's stray pet canine. What do you do?
    d. Ignore it. I should not have to pick up the slack for someone who cannot even properly keep his own pet.
