Description Why do I do this to myself? Every time I decide to make adopts I end up making designs I fall in love with and then have a gigantic struggle when it comes to letting go of them. I JUST MADE THESE BABUS, DUN TAKE THEM AWAY YET!!

Though Please do actually take them. While I love the designs I have too many Oc's at this point already ( like seriously I haven't even posted half of them yet..) so sadly I must part with these lovelies and entrust them to you..you...vicious people who probably are gonna uproot every thought I have in them...

How dare you. 
I'm joking of course (or am I)

Small bit of flavor text here about two of the species you will see on that line up.

#3 the one listed as 150 points is a Species of my own creation, same with #7. 

The red one known as number three is from the species merely known as the Drel. (Deh-reh-ell)
They are not a high ranking species to say the least, and generally you can find them acting as the main occupants of black market planets. 
While they are massive in number they have no home planet to populate or take residence on. The cause of their planets destruction is widely unknown, but the generally accepted theory and most likely out of the wild rumors that spread is that it was destroyed by the armada during one of their conquests of possible slave force, and resources.
If you enter any illegal industry area in the several planets they inhabit it is almost a given that you will see a larger population of Drel than in other locations. Their rough exterior, intimidating structures along with their several generations of street smarts making them a perfect candidate for the kind of jobs most don't wish to dirty their hands with. This ranging from piracy to drug smuggling. Most are just happy to have the work how ever distasteful it might be.

Number Seven is from the species Neigloi (Neh-ee-gloo-e)
They are a generally well manner typed of species, small in height admittedly. Although it is said they compensate for this issue by when in large numbers standing on one another's shoulders to look at their guest/enemies eyes as they speak. They are a very prideful species,  due to the large amount of herbal plant life on their planet of origin this species is rather knowledgeable about plant life. And the possible medical uses they can have. Not necessarily always the legal kinds of medical uses, but uses all the same.
They are a cunning breed of alien, and did evolve from water type creatures. While they no longer require water to survive they feel most comfortable submerged in it, and can breathe just fine if necessary with the rarely used, but fully functional gills on the side of their chest. 




::NOW FOR THE FLAVOR TEXT!::

These adoptables are run a bit differently then I have in the past. As you can see near each of these adorable buggers is a point number. 
THIS IS NOT THE AUTO-BUY NUMBER This is the starting bid price. 

This is a name your own price bidding, not any first come first served kinda dealio. 
I'd say its more like a fight to the death to see who can keep their price the highest before time runs out for the bidding. 
Though I imagine I don't need to explain to thoroughly how this is all gonna work given it is an routine auction.

I am going to be monitoring the comments INTENTLY over the time that the bidding is going on, and updating the description depending on who has put he highest bid.  

If you are bidding for an adoptable you might want to keep alert in the comments as well, because you really can't have any idea whether you're gonna be outbidded by someone else unless you keep your ever watchful eyes on it!

 You never know when another deviant might knock you out of first place


Do not send me the points for the adoptable you are bidding on before the auction is closed, please!

Feel free to bid on more than one of the adopts if you like, though do leave some for the rest of the deviants!

::WHEN BIDDING::
Merely post a comment saying for example "400 on 4" which would be the lovely male Vortian in the middle. 
The number system being from left to right merely going in a row. Numbers 1-8. 
You can raise the bidding price by at LEAST 10 points :I or higher if you prefer. 

::STARTING BID PRICING TIME:: 
As mentioned before the prices for starting are placed next to the characters, but encase I need to repeat them, along with the current bids.

::HIGHEST BIDS AND NEW OWNERS:: 

#1 - 280 Points -  NovaStar000  
#2 - 200 Points - MisterMech      
#3 - 350 Points - ProjectHalfbreed  
#4 -400 Points - Gvozdi  
#5 - 500 Points - twitchiness   
#6 - 100 Points poorbabynoonewantedher

For 6 did u get the Idea of the one antenna from my old IRKEN but then added  the little zig at the end?

Octeapi In reply to IRKENGOSSIP [2014-04-13 20:50:42 +0000 UTC]

I do not know any of your irkens Hun. Don't think I have looked through your gallery at any point. A zig at the end of that isn't an uncommon feature. My Oc  Enya has one similar at the end of her antennas curl as well. 
Could you perhaps link me this old irken you suspect me for using as an inspiration?

Octeapi In reply to IRKENGOSSIP [2014-04-13 21:21:39 +0000 UTC]

I hate to disappoint you Hun, but this is the first time I have ever seen this picture. The kind of antenna you are asking if I referenced here are not hard to think up and are not that uncommon in the IZ fandom. And if you look at the antenna I drew on number six as well you will see that she has a 'fishhook' kind of antenna, rather than the curved ones you are presenting in this image. Honestly I don't think I have been to what ever deviantart page you got this from either. So how I would manage to use it as a reference for a picture, let alone an adoptable oc is kinda just not possible. 

I didn't reference this in any way Sorry if you thought I did, but it just ain't the case.

OH! its ok and everything! its just i dont want to go so far in with my antenna and then someone new thinks of it and calls it theirs and i am the one with copyright,.thats all.

Octeapi In reply to IRKENGOSSIP [2014-04-13 21:36:04 +0000 UTC]

Well the antenna that I did base these ones for number six off of were from an OC I made at the start of my time in the fandom. I plan on reintroducing her soon when I finish up a few things.
There isn't as much as a copyright on DeviantArt as a mutual respect. If someone draws an oc just like yours that is a problem. but if everyone started to get defensive at people using the same antenna as them, then there would be constant war all the time between the deviants. No real 'claim' to an antenna style as much as to the character themselves Besides, you can't really have copyright on fanart. It's already legally copyrighted under a legit enterprise, so you can't copyright it.

I've never had an artist tell me I'd probably get outbid. or some reason that felt a bit rude.

Octeapi In reply to Linktydraad [2014-04-14 05:49:47 +0000 UTC]

Might was my wording, and it wasn't meant to seem rude at all. 
I am sorry that you felt it was so D:> 
I just was suggesting you keep an eye on it if you wanted to get it. Cause it is an auction and things like this tend to have people getting outbid. 

Sorry you felt offended by that. Was never my intention.

ADFDSA ;~; I don't know which I want! 4, 5 or 7!!! I have a perfect place for all three of them!!! -flails around crying- Two would make perfect bounty hunters to partner with a new OC I'm drawing, and the other is EXACTLY what I needed for a teacher in the smeet undergrounds! -flails more- 

I mean I guess I could design another bounty hunter myself... but idk where I'd find an awesome teacher like that >.<; and I do need to fill the place quickly for my comic... AFDSA okay!

100 points on 7!

Awesome!

A few quick questions about the species: That thing on his back is like a turtle shell? And how does it attack to his body? Over or under his clothing?

Octeapi In reply to Ornja [2014-04-23 17:03:28 +0000 UTC]

Weellll it isn't a shell persay he was born with but it is very similar to a turtle shell in structure. in his culture the way to become a man persay is to build a shell like that. :T Only the males have the. and as you might imagine they are detachable So over the clothing 👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Well you know you can bid on more than one if you have the points XD You can raise the bid from someone by 10 points 
The current bids on 4 and 5 are both 300 points though you could always raise to at least 310
I updated the description you currently are the highest bidder on the adopt though keep an eye out it is likely you will be out bidded if you don't keep your eye on it.
