that feel when the keythong never gets any love

Not an entry, since this is an "existing" mythological creature. Just an observation because this contest reminded me of something I've noticed:

EVERYONE DOES THE FEATHERY GRYPHONS BUT THEY ALWAYS FORGET THE POOR KEYTHONG. ;_;

I want to see cool hybrids happen, but you just know there will be that one magi that decides to cross something with a broken ability with something else that's extremely destructive. Looking forward to an entry I can fit in my palm and carry around with me. You know, like a pocket shark or something. You know you've always wanted a pocket shark.

I can't draw worth a flip, so I hope my descriptions are vivid enough for an artist to render my vision. I've got my first concept posted and I've got four more in process.

Thanks for holding the type of contest I can actually participate in.

This sounds amazing omg I totally want to try for once. Two questions though. One, can the drawing submission be traditional, and two, can questborns be used? I saw no using creatures that have a "cost" attached and didn't know if the act of getting a questborn constitutes a cost or not.
I rent my donis for breeding. Check my About Me for details.

Anything in my Shop Stock tab is for sale. PM me if interested!

I hope that this means just donis and the like, as you need to pay in shards to breed them, I think?


Oh boy, my fear of someone thinking of what I thought got the best of me
I guess I'll have to do some drawing now
This Signature looks so bad on mobile. Good lord it is HUGE. I'll need to work on that at some point. For now though I sleep

Questborns are perfectly valid, since they have free and unlimited breeding. The cost only refers to creatures that have a cost for breeding; currently, only donation pets fall under that category.

So I've created a hybrid species.
But I've decided that I don't want to do that species anymore (it's in the process of being completely redone anyway).
Am I allowed to edit the post and replace it with a completely new species?
Or must I complete the species I started and enter the new species in a new thread?

Does the question I'm asking even make any sense to you...?

I'm fairly sure that before the deadline you can do whatever with your entry.

You can edit your entry as much as you like up until the deadline. Just be aware that any incomplete entries will be automatically disqualified at that time.
