Description Kelp - owner artofdroth  
Kelp has a cheerful and positive personality. He's very friendly and outgoing. He has many friends and loves meeting new people. His favorite thing to do is swim with the seals through the kelp forest.

Gull - owner Tsuyoist  
Gull is quiet and shy, a dreamer. He's sweet but doesn't have many friends because he's most comfortable keeping to himself. Those who get close to him though are quickly won over by his gentle nature and sense of wonder for the world around him. He loves to watch the sea birds fly and imagine all the things they can see, both over the sea and the land.

Otter - owner Captain-Storm  
Otter is a purposeful and driven guy. He's very dependable and trustworthy, and it seems like he's always doing something for someone. His favorite food is clam, and he loves to eat them with his name sake friends.

Ha ha - well keep an eye out - I'm actually making a new species, and I might do the same for them if people like the premade character history.

I'm actually making a closed species now! To get it started though I think I'll probably give away some characters or custom slots. I'm sure I could give you one if you like them in exchange for spreading the word about them!

oooooooooooh that would be wonderful *O* is there a journal you want me to share or shall i just make a journal saying you're starting a cs and all the details about it? :3

I'll put out a journal when I get more info on them and get the details tightened up. Here's a sneak preview though:

   

They're called Burroots! They're small creatures who live in burrows they dig in the ground (thuis the low to the ground and big forearms/hands/claws). They eat mostly roots they dig up, but have a special love of fruits, berries, and nuts! Their traits will depend on where they live (horns, tails, ears, colors...)

When is the deadline? And do you draw the one you want (except Kelp)? Sorry for the questions but I have never heard of a DTA contest before 😅

artofdroth In reply to FantasyEverythingEve [2016-06-21 18:13:33 +0000 UTC]

Deadline is July 1st! And yep, just draw the one you want, and then I'll pick the winner, and they get the character! I only have 1 entry so far, one for otter, so your chances would be pretty good!
