Hello everyone! It's that time of year when the air becomes colder and snowflakes begin to fall from the heavens, the landscape becomes covered by a blanket of white.. (depending on where you are in the world that is. :'D ) So, do you know what that calls for?! That's right an OC Winter/Yule/Christmas Contest! (I decided to launch the contest eight days ahead of schedule since the positive results on my recent polls asked for them.)
FINAL NEWS UPDATE:
We're in the final days now! All entries must be in on the 10th of March by 12pm PST, Los Angeles time! To know what this time converts to for you click the following: www.timeanddate.com/worldclock…
Having said that, I want to thank everyone for their patience. Not long to go now!
NEWS UPDATE #4:
14 Days to Go Until the Deadline! As said before this is the final deadline, no more extensions so you better get your entries finished and submitted before midnight on the 10th of March!
If anyone is interested I have set up a sister chatroom for LoreithianChronicles, everyone is welcome to join and join in on the conversation. You don't have to talk about my stories!
I may have a chat event there in the near future. So click the button below and join in and have fun! Come join us in our #Loreithia chatroom
NEWS UPDATE #3:
As I usually do with contests, I always ask close to the deadline if anyone needs an extension. Since I have posted polls both on my account and at LoreithianChronicles I noticed there were a quite a few of you still needing the time to submit your entry! So the deadline has been extended once again to March 10th! This is the Final Extension!
NEWS UPDATE #2:
If you are interested Loreithian Chronicles was featured and I was interviewed by mirz333 in her Literary Compass, check it out! mirz-alt.deviantart.com/journa…
NEWS UPDATE #1:
Knowing that the holiday season is upon us all and we are usually busy at this time of year, I have extended the deadline from January 1st to February 28th!
themes and objectives
Like my previous Unlikey Friends OC Contest the theme is very simple once again. As a lover of world crossovers, this contest again will be about that. Your characters and mine. But as the contest suggests with a winter or Christmas/Yule theme.
For example:
Christmas: traditionally Christmas Trees, holly, mistletoe, ivy, red amaryllis, candy canes, candles, stockings, wreaths, angels. Traditional colors like: green, white, red, blue, gold and silver and of course the giving of Gifts! Winter: LOTS OF SNOW! Snowflakes, Snowmen, Icicles, Penguins, Polar Bears, the Northern Lights. Again, the objective is simple. Choose one (or more) of my characters and pair them up with yours. Imagine a scene or situation where they would come together during the winter and/or Christmas time and illustrate that.
The purpose of this contest is to have an original, fun, witty, imaginative, magical or charming outcome. So unleash your imagination! But I also hope that it can be fun for you as well and unleash all your creativity upon.
My Characters
You can choose from any of my characters below, read all the information in the character sheets and inside the artist comments. Remember if you need to know any more information, feel free to ask.
Please note: Luciana has curly black hair and blue eyes, unlike what the profile shows. Please read the fine print. AND, if you do not wish to draw any of the characters here but someone else you can check out my other OC's (Such as Emmanuel, Inaiyah or Lilith) at my story group: LoreithianChronicles!
FAQ

(Some questions that you've made about characters and the world itself, I've answered them here as much as I could...- The Palace in which the Dragon Mage Royals (Luciana and her mother for example) live in is in a city, it's one of the main cities in the Loreithia continent. Surrounding the city is fields and forests and a river to one side.. It is rich in color, creams, golds, white and marble textures. The architecture is similar to that in this picture. You wouldn't find any slums or many poor people in this city. Since it is owned primarily by Dragon Mages, you can expect there is many dragons around of varying sizes as many Dragon Mages have dragon familiars like how witches have cat familiars and many dragon emblems throughout the city. The forest nearby the city isn't particularly thick or dense, you can see the light of the sun through the canopy. More Information on this question can be found in this comment thread: comments.deviantart.com/1/3303…
- Lykaios is about five years older than Luciana.
Important things to know
The entries must be specifically for this contest, and a link to this contest journal in your artist comments would be appreicated. Maximum two entries per person. Please comment with a link to your entry on this journal. Digital or traditional drawings and paintings and written literature entries are allowed. (My apologies, if literature, please make them in English only. I won't be able to read if in another language.) The Entries must contain at least one or more of my OCs and at most one of your OCs. You can have more if you want. (If You do not have an established OC, you can create one just for this contest. Original Animals and Original Creatures are also allowed should you not have an OC.) My OCs must be recognizable, please try to respect them and their personalities. Any style is more than welcome, be it chibi, manga, realistic or cartoony. Mild mature content is allowed, but nothing sexually explicit or too gory. (I mean come on, it's a Christmas/Winter contest it should be lighthearted at most! - However this is just a guideline... ) The Contest begins today: October 25th 2012 and ends February 28th 2013.

Walking in a winter wonderland The sound of feet crunching the snow could be heard clearly in the still night air. The moon was nearly full, and it made the ground seem to glow as it was reflected back. The figure walking alone in her dark green cloak would have been easy to spot if anyone was looking for her. Elreth was on the prowl for a meal, but having fed the day previous, Aylsa had decided to take a walk rather then join him. She enjoyed being close to nature, and having the freedom to do as she chose, rather then waht her maker wanted all the time. She had been walking for about half an hour when she stopped suddenly. Pushing her hood back, she blinked incred...:thumb358321641:
