Drew these forever ago.
Just now uploading. I thought managing entries would be a lot easier over Spring Break, so that's why I waited. c: Sorryyyy
And yes, they're draw (and develop) to adopt. The friend I wanted to raise money for refused to give me her Paypal, so lucky-butt you. Anyways, here goes.

Please read all below information before applying for a Nympka.

About Nympkas
• They do not live on Earth. They live in the Xyran world (parallel universe) along with Xyri [link] and Fanears [link] . Please do not draw them with Earth animals/humans or develop a backstory including them.
• This variety lives in semi-tropical forests.
• Hands of all four front feet are fully dexterous and thickly padded with hard callused skin.
• They live on both the forest floor and in the trees, though their food is mostly found above ground (gifted climbers).
• Diet consists of soft, easily digested leaves (keep in mind most Xyran trees are red-leafed) and occasional small insectoids.
• Their teeth look like this: [link]
• They are wild animals and do not have human personalities/intelligence. They're very cat and lemur-like in behavior.
• They are about a foot and a half at the shoulder.
• Tails are partially dexterous and can do some gripping, but they are mostly used for balance.
• Nympkas live in small packs of about 6-10 members. It is lead by a dominant male.
• In the wild they live about 6-8 years at maximum.

You may:
• Make minor design changes.
• Add/remove scars.

You may not:
• Sell the design if won. Please tell me if you don't want the character anymore.
• Change the species. The point of making the adoptables a unique and original was to allow people to posses a member of the species, not the colors.
• Take credit for the design. I'm not asking you to put my name in the description every time you draw the character, just try to refer people to me if they compliment you on the design.
• Take credit for the species. I worked hard to make these cool and original for you guys. Give me credit for my efforts. :u
• Make your own Nympka. I want to make these guys an open species, I just need to develop them a bit more and get some references and guidelines set before I let you loose onto them.

How to Apply:
• Draw a fullbody, prefereably colored picture of your Nympka of choice (You can apply for both, but it's only possible to win one). This can be a normal picture or a reference sheet.
• Post it to deviantART. This is very important. It's extremely hard to keep track of entries with off-site links.
• Give it a name, gender, and personality (minimally) in the description or on the picture. Background story is optional.
Submit it to me via comment by March 29, 11:59 pm (Central Time Zone). Winners will be announce in a journal.

Woo! Okay! Wall of text!
If you have questions about anything, feel free to ask me. Have fun! ♥

They can be in the same image; just don't give them interlinking/dependent-on-each-other back stories. ♥

The name just popped in my head first thought. When I checked to see if it was un-used, it stuck. ♥

If I didn't think I'd neglect it, like I do will pretty much 100% of my characters, I'd totally go for the dark one. <3

Nope. Read the rules please. :u

Malusdraco In reply to Kieraux [2012-03-15 21:42:09 +0000 UTC]

you're welcome!

i did
so it's a drawing, name, gender and personality?
nothing else?
i was just asking because earlier you had the poll and you said it was going to be paid adoptions
(gosh i have this feeling like i'm being annoying... sorry)

Kieraux In reply to Malusdraco [2012-03-15 21:50:08 +0000 UTC]

What? No, you're fine. xD
I said to ask questions. Haha

Well, they were going to be cash adoptables, but the friend I wanted to raise money for refused to give me her Paypal (I was going to send the profits directly to her), so I made them free instead.
It isn't just drawing, name, gender, and personality; previous winners have always put a lot of passion and "heart," dare I say, into developing the characters. There really has to be a lot of effort put into it.
In the end, I base it off the character development and attachment, not art quality. c:

KitOnlyHuman In reply to Kieraux [2012-03-15 20:29:26 +0000 UTC]

I just hope that whoever gets them make collaborations to draw them together.

Kieraux In reply to KitOnlyHuman [2012-03-15 20:31:07 +0000 UTC]

Oh, well they sure could if they wanted. I think it's best that they go separately so that just one person doesn't own both of the so-far-only-existing Nympkas.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

KitOnlyHuman In reply to Kieraux [2012-03-15 20:32:43 +0000 UTC]

No no. I understand. But the fact that they are the only two, doncha think they'd be a bit lonely?

They remind me of a yin and yang.

Plus only having the two would bring the two owners together if they hadn't met before.

Kieraux In reply to KitOnlyHuman [2012-03-15 20:39:15 +0000 UTC]

Yes, true. More will be made, though if they're popular. People are perfectly free to pair up to make a collaborative backstory. It can be hard choosing sometimes, though if I think one of the people should win their adoptable and not their partner. :/
