    Clutching Round 26--CLOSED Empty Clutching Round 26--CLOSED

    Post  Kitsuneko Sat Oct 31, 2009 8:55 am

    Haven't heard from Erinnyes, so in the interest of getting the clutching round started, the winner has been chosen randomly.

    Gold Hollanth, ridden by Lorena & Bronze Norrith, ridden by S'ig
    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:
    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.

    Yay, Norrith's a daddy!


    Your Name: EK
    Candidate's Name: Flavynn
    Future Rider Name, if Male: Fl'ynn
    Gender: Male

    1. What color do you particularly want to Impress?
    f. Doesn't matter, I'll take anything! I'm just honored to be here. (...though a Bronze would be understandably impressive.)

    2. Any colors you DO NOT want to get?
    f. Nope, I'm fine with any of them. If I'm lucky enough for a dragon to choose me for impression, then whichever one chose me was meant to do so. (...I somehow can't imagine a Gold doing so.)

    3. Extrovert or Introvert?
    b. Yeah, for the most part, I'm pretty extroverted. At least when the time calls for it. I can work easily in large crowds, though I'm most comfortable when I only have a couple close friends around. That's when I get to be myself.

    4. Nervous about the Hatching?
    a. Are you kidding? I'll be the first one on the sands. ..Hopefully I won't look TOO eager compared to the other candidates.

    5. Are you a leader, or a follower?
    d. I'd be a great leader! I know that I have some good, solid ideas on how to change (and improve) things. It will take time before I ever get a chance to do so, though, and in the mean time I need to excel at the lower ranks so that I can work my way up to a position where I can do something.

    6. Someone played a mean-spirited prank on another candidate. What do you do?
    b. Feel a little guilty about how they took it, but still congratulate myself on a job well done. ..I should probably apologize to him soon, but I can guarantee that he never saw that one coming. We'll both laugh about it many times further down the road.

    7. Some of your friends dare you to go somewhere dangerous. What do you do?
    c. I'd dare them right back. All or none! That's how dares work!

    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! I've always wanted a puppy! ..ah, I mean! It's the responsible thing to do.

    a. I'm totally gonna win that bubbly pie/mark/useless trinket, no problem! Wait'll you see me in action - you'll be sorry you ever tried to one up me!

    8. You find someone's stray pet canine. What do you do?
    f. Kick it. Gah! Stupid dogs. Who lets mongrels like this run around all over the place?!
