    Clutching Round 25--CLOSED Empty Clutching Round 25--CLOSED

    Post  Kitsuneko Fri Oct 16, 2009 10:32 am

    Gold Tiemath, ridden by Lache & Bronze Aevesith, ridden by S'air
    11 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: EK
    Candidate's Name: Vehiel
    Gender: Female

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

    2. Any colors you DO NOT want to get?
    e. Green. Well, I mean, I wouldn't turn one down. But if I'm fighting thread, I'd like for us both to be able to last the whole fight!

    3. Extrovert or Introvert?
    c. I like being part of a crowd, but not the center of attention. Sometimes grabbing the spotlight is nice, but I'd rather sit back and enjoy what everyone else has to show for it most of the time.

    4. Nervous about the Hatching?
    a. Are you kidding? I'll be the first one on the sands. Anyone who says they're not excited is definitely a liar. Just having a chance to stand isn't something that most people get, especially if you're not Weyr-born.

    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. Nothing wrong with that, right? At least I'm willing to admit it.

    6. Someone played a mean-spirited prank on another candidate. What do you do?
    h. I may laugh it off now, but wait until you see my revenge... It's a plate best served cold.

    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. I've got more important things to do right now, anyway.

    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. That's a lot better than that other candidate would've done.. and I do feel kind of sorry for the guy.

    ---

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

    1. What color do you particularly want to Impress?
    b. Bronze. I'm in this for the long haul, and I intend to climb as high as I can while I'm here. Both of us will.

    2. Any colors you DO NOT want to get?
    a. Gold. It's a fighting dragon I want, not a clutching dragon.

    3. Extrovert or Introvert?
    d. Friends are nice, but I like plenty of time to myself as well. The more, the better. The friends that I do have, though, are ones that I'd trust. We'd do anything for one another.

    4. Nervous about the Hatching?
    c. I just want to get it over with already. Yes, I'm excited, but there really isn't much time to savor the whole experience. After the hatching, we all begin the training.

    5. Are you a leader, or a follower?
    d. I'd be a great leader. That said, I get along best supporting the one or two at the top - and leading from there. Or at least that's where I'm most comfortable.

    6. Someone played a mean-spirited prank on another candidate. What do you do?
    e. Roll my eyes and studiously ignore the commotion. Really, don't these people have anything better to do?

    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. Thread is enough danger for us all without having to pull stupid stunts like this.

    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. Animals can take care of themselves.
