Introduction
There were four bebes left over from the last breeding, three of which are rare-mixes and one of which that isn't a full bred Euclides. Rather special bebes, if I do say so myself.
So, what do we do for special bebes? Auctions? Har! Mem's fair left Shiv. Raffles? Befitting of such lovely rare creatures.
We're doing a contest. A roleplay contest. Something Mem's seen a couple of times but has never had the chance to do. Depending on how this goes, we might see a fair few more of these in the future.
Rules and Information
i. Mem has set up three separate prompts. You, the potential owner of one of these bebes, must respond to the prompt as if you were writing the introduction post for a roleplay.
ii. As this is 'roleplaying', unless otherwise stated you may only include the Euclides you're attempting to adopt in the introduction.
iii. For each Euclides you're attempting to acquire, you'll have to write a new 'intro'. You will only receive ONE bebe, but you may try for as many as you like.
iv. They're bebes. New born bebes. Please don't write something that belongs in the boink forum.
v. You'll be 'graded' on the following points;
- interpretation and response to the prompt
- characterization of the bebe
- correct spelling and grammar
- creativity and orginality
- how well the intro allows another person to join the roleplay
vi. You're entry may be as long or as short as you wish. There is no limit.
vii. You may give the bebe a name.
viii. Deadline; April 09
The Prompts
All prompts written in 2nd person POV. "You" refers to the bebe you're attempting to win.
I. You and your siblings have just become old enough to venture away from mummy and daddy. This being your first escapade, you leave together. During your first escape something catches your eye and you hurry to investigate, shouting at your siblings to come see as well. You find out what you saw was nothing more than a scraggly looking bird with a stolen trinket in its mouth...but your siblings didn't follow you and you don't know where you are. You're lost and alone for the very first time. What do you do?
II. You find yourself paying a visit to the abandoned churchyard and come face to face with an amuni, no older than you. He seems remorse, perhaps in mourning, but immediately takes to the defense when he sees you. Being an amuni, it's his duty to kill you, but you can tell he's reluctant to do so. He makes an effort to attack you, but with very little strength behind the action. His reluctance means he could be persuaded to leave you be, but that wouldn't be very Euclides-like, would it? What do you do?
III. It's late, and you're on your own for the night, wandering the streets as Euclides are quite oft to do during the later hours. You've never had to hunt for yourself before, but you're suddenly faced with the chance to do so. You're young, but so's your prey...a little girl, lost, alone, and frightened, wandering the streets with naught but a little bear in her arms. She's frightened to death even before she catches sight of you. Being innocent and young, she believes you to be someone who might help her get home. She asks you to help her (even if you're in your feral form, little girls are apt for asking cute furry creatures to help them, after all). What do you do?

- Must be named using murdon naming rules
- As they're 1/4 humanoid they are all capable of shifting into a humanoid form
- Being 1/8 vampire, the bebes do have an affinity for drinking blood, and, in their humanoid form, sport slightly pointed canines (they're small and hard to notice)
- Being 1/8 werewolf, the bebes are forced into their semi-anthro form under the light of the full moon, and they will feel a slight blood lust. They do not go 'out of control' during this shift.
- The bebes are all fertile
- The bebes have a fairy tale theme, each one of them based on a character (or two, in one cast) from a well known fairytale. They're personalities will reflect this 'theme'.

Good god, some of them (ie. the one's with more than one entry) were damn hard to pick winners for x.x;;
Especially Cinderella. But I SD did a spectacular job, adding in little cultural bits and an extremely suiting name. I thought it best to let someone else snag a fairytale bebe. One of each, and all that. <3
EU171M was...bloody hard as well. I was hoping not many entries would come in so I could keep him XD Tough luck, there, Mem. In the end, our fantabulous newbie wooed me with her uber-awesome roleplaying skills.
...I was still very disappointed no one gave him the personality I thought he screamed of. Proving once more that Mem's mind is warped.
I got my magical-happy Stephen Fry book in the mail today. ....so...congrats, loves, and all that jazz.
I'm 'a go read now <3 {{ps. zomgthank-youTigs!<3333}}
