    Clutching Round 24--CLOSED Empty Clutching Round 24--CLOSED

    Post  Kitsuneko Fri Oct 02, 2009 10:24 am

    Gold Iliath, ridden by Justine & Bronze Hubneth, ridden by H'rop
    15 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:

    5. Are you a leader, or a follower?

    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: EK
    Candidate's Name: Celeste
    Gender: Female

    1. What color do you particularly want to Impress?
    a. Gold. They're so impressive! All the other dragons look to them when they're nearby. Though I'm not really sure that I'm up for everything else that goes with them.. [AN: I don't really want a gold and know there's not one in this clutch. It's just what she would say. Wink]

    2. Any colors you DO NOT want to get?
    f. Nope, I'm fine with any of them. I just feel lucky to have the chance to be a candidate!

    3. Extrovert or Introvert?
    c. I like being part of a crowd, but not the center of attention. It's fun to watch everything that's going on all around, but I'd rather not be the one in the spotlight. Not unless I'm with a group of close friends.

    4. Nervous about the Hatching?
    b. I'm getting a little jittery and impatient. These chores that we have to do are good for passing the time sometimes.. but other times the hours seem to just drag.

    5. Are you a leader, or a follower?
    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. I could probably force myself out of that habit, but there's usually at least one other person in a group that's one of those fast thinkers who can figure out the best course of action before everyone else. I'll stick to their plan instead of trying to stumble along with mine.

    6. Someone played a mean-spirited prank on another candidate. What do you do?
    f. Help the victim clean up the mess. Why would someone want to do that to another person?

    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 might get in trouble, too, and then I bet I'd be disqualified as a candidate.. That'd be even worse than getting hurt.

    8. You find someone's stray pet canine. What do you do?
    b. Take care of it until I find its owner. Poor little guy, all alone..

    Your Name: EK
    Candidate's Name: Raven
    Future Rider Name, if Male: R'ven
    Gender: Male

    1. What color do you particularly want to Impress?
    d. Blue. Overlooked and under appreciated, anyone who really pays attention to what goes on in Threadfall can tell that it's these guys who are doing all the real work.

    2. Any colors you DO NOT want to get?
    b. Bronze. Sorry, that crowd's not my type.

    3. Extrovert or Introvert?
    a. I love to gossip and be around people and show off. It's easy to put on a show like that, get a few laughs, get on others' good sides.. Makes life easier for me all around, too. Doesn't mean I'm always like that when no one's around, though.

    4. Nervous about the Hatching?
    d. I don't care, I probably won't Impress anyway. I mean, well, I'd love to impress. But there's a lot of other candidates here and only so many eggs. The odds are good, but they're not a guarantee.

    5. Are you a leader, or a follower?
    a. Sorry, I'm uh...allergic to responsibility. It's just like those Bronze riders. Not my thing.

    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. The best part is that they only THINK that they know who pulled it off!

    7. Some of your friends dare you to go somewhere dangerous. What do you do?
    b. Of course not...What? I'm not scared...look, I'll go right in there while you scaredy-cats stay here...oh crap. How do I always get into messes like this..?

    8. You find someone's stray pet canine. What do you do?
    d. Ignore it. Sorry, pup, but you're not my problem.
