Wishing Star - November 2020 - Rolling in Progress

[techabyte]

November 2020 Wishing Star

There’s a strange, bright star over the Kawani lands. It’s a rare sight, and legend has it that the star can grant a few select individuals a special request. Head up to the top of the hill, place a small offering on the altar, and make your wish. Is it a wish for love, a child, a friend or even someone long lost? Think carefully about your wish, however, as you only get to make one!

Starts: November 24, 2020 @ 5AM PST / 6AM MST / 7AM CST / 8AM EST
Ends: November 29, 2020 @ 5AM PST / 6AM MST / 7AM CST / 8AM EST
(The thread will open and close at its stated time, regardless of whether or not an announcement is made.)

Rules

.... Caps

• Pets won here are free. They will count as your freebie win for the month of November.
  
• You may enter for, at most: 1 Soquili Slot (anything but Loyal Companion) and 1 Familiar Slot (Loyal Companion) if you have not hit your monthly cap.
  
  Restrictions
  
• Non-charmed skinwalkers cannot participate. Charmed skinwalker entries will not result in skinwalker soquili granted from the wishing star.
  
• You may use another person's pet or couple so long as you have their permission. This permission can be in the form of a lifemate agreement between their pet and yours, or a post in the Reference and Mockbreeding Permissions thread.
  
• You may use pets that are deceased IC.
  
  Reminders
  
• Please check to make sure you have been added to the list correctly. We will do our best to keep the list accurate and updated frequently, but mistakes do happen, especially when there's a high number of entrants. With this rule, we will no longer be rolling an additional slot for missed people (exceptions may be made depending on the circumstance, but they are just that: exceptions, and not the rule).
  
• Wishing Stars aren't breedings OOC, and colorists have more free reign with them. Additional breeds and traits may be added that the parents do not possess. Otherwise, all edit levels, breeds, and mutant traits can pass, unless otherwise stated.
  
• Prizes in Wishing Stars are considered semi-customs; thus, colorists are free to stream them at any time. If you're getting baskets and want to be surprised, please keep that in mind!
  
• All children granted will be considered a special gift from the Star and labeled as a 1st Gen Mockbreeding Child of the couple. However, you may still throwback to their mock parents' bloodline when entering them in normal breeding slots, even if it's impossible for them to be related by blood (e.g. the seathi Quiyahuatl can throwback to his usdia mother and his angeni father).
  
• IC interpretation is flexible. This means if a female usidia x male usidia win a usdia basket, they can say IC that it was born normally, rather than the result of a star. This also means rogue entries can claim they mated with a random character of the opposite sex, that it was a spirit child between them and another, or that it was a spirit child of them alone. However, it should not go against shop canon; if the female usidia x male usidia received a mer child and they see it as their genetic offspring, it must have come from the star or other spirits rather than being a biological birth. In addition, users are still free to use throwback references, regardless of whether the resulting child is considered canonically related or not.
  
  Editing
  
• If you want to edit the list of usernames in the "Star-Spoken" and "Spirit's Blessing" category, or add or take away the RP/LM modifier, you must void your original entry and repost. You must void and repost if you change categories as well (for instance, pulling a "Star-Spoken" entry to enter a "Long Lost Family Member" instead). When you repost, state that you're voiding the previous entry; otherwise, you may be listed twice and disqualified.
  
• Any other aspects of the form may be freely edited at any time, without reposting.
  
• However, if you post an incomplete form, they will not be added to the list, and we will not be going back to check. You must repost to have your form counted.
  
  Newbies
  
• If you have no pet in the shop, have no fear! You can receive permission to reference other people's pets in most categories. Alternatively, you may make up a human character in the Kawani setting and use that character to enter the "True Friend" and "Loyal Companion" categories.
  
  Final Notes
  
• Feel free to quote, PM, ping, or DM me (the host) if you have any questions.

Forms

Star-Spoken

This wish for a child can be made by any who seek parenthood, whose intensity of feeling has been recognized by the star. If your wish is granted, the couple might find a special basket near their home one day.

• Eligible: Relationships that have been roleplayed or LM'd (LM agreements can only be between soquili x soquili pairs or poly groups; agreements between soquili x familiars won't be recognized, as at present time there is no consequence or cooldown if a soquili x familiar LM is broken). If roleplayed, the thread must contain at least 10 posts or 1,000 words to qualify, and the thread must have been started prior to the starting time of this event. The roleplay must support the character's wish, whether it be a roleplay between two characters showing their bond (it does not necessarily have to be a romantic one, so long as they do not despise each other), or a solo roleplay where a character self-reflects on what it'd be like to be a parent (such as for rogue breeding entries).
  These relationships include:
  
  • Soquili x soquili, soquili x familiar, and familiar x familiar pairs or poly groups, regardless of breed, species, sex, or gender.
    
  • Pairs or poly groups involving deceased characters.
    
  • Rogue breedings, where one character (soquili or familiar) is submitted and the offspring has a chance of displaying surprise markings, colors, and traits.
• Result: 1 Basket per Username
  
• Restrictions: Inbreeding rules still apply, and any soquili x familiar pair must be with a sentient and sapient familiar.

Long Lost Family Member

Does your soquili have family out there somewhere it would like to be reunited with? Wish hard enough, and they may just stumble upon you in the near future!

• Eligible: Soquili
  
• Result: Adult Soquili
  
• Restrictions: Only 1st Gen non-mock breeding pets may enter the Long Lost Family category for non-descendants (such as siblings, parents, and aunts). Otherwise, it implies a breeding of one of the parents or other relatives that is likely owned by someone else, and may interfere with the backstories of their characters. However, a pet of any generation may ask for descendants.
  In addition, any breeds listed must come from the custom thread. Halfbreeds and crossbreeds are fine, although they cannot be skinwalkers. Anything that is not a breed, such as mutant and body type, will not be permissible for an entry. Colorists may opt to add more breeds in the resulting pet, so long as at least one of the listed breeds are included.

[b]Throwbacks:[/b] (If you'd like throwbacks, please link to all ancestors that: 1. you'd like to see throwbacks from, 2. you have permission to use. Please provide links only; no images.

Modifiers
(Optional)

Twins & Triplets
These only apply to "Star-Spoken" and "Spirit's Blessing" entries with two or more users listed; if they are included in forms with just one user, they will be ignored.

If you want the possibility of twins or triplets (if applicable) please post this at the top of your form. This gives us the option of giving your pony a twin or triplet of the same sex with minimal color or edit changes. Saying yes does not guarantee you will get them, it simply give us the option. Only post if you want the option -- if you don't, ignore this modifier!

What does your character leave as an offering for the wishing star? A shed cerynei antler from Coop, and an Angeni feather

Short IC Response: Though they had been blessed with three wonderful baskets, the feeling remained that somebody was

missing. Anaon and Coop visited the Wishing Star to see if there was indeed another foal yet to be. "Please help us find them."

What does your character leave as an offering for the wishing star? One of the feathers and beads that have been woven into her mane.

Short IC Response: Life was not and never would be easy. Fleur knew of hardship, and knew there would undoubtedly be more within her lifetime. Was it selfish to wish for the one being who knew and shared her burdens? Undoubtedly, yes. But life had made Fleur into a selfish creature, and she would welcome an ally at her side to weather the battles yet to come. Whether or not the Wishing Star was real or even capable of granting her desire, well... That was to be seen. She used the rough bark of a tree to rub one of the feathers and beads free from her short mane, carefully lipping them up before depositing them at the alter.

If he's out there, send him to me. She wished, glaring fiercely up at the strange, bright star twinkling innocently overhead. I'm so damn tired of having to do this on my own.

A Loyal Companion

Who is Wishing?: Soquili

Permission: N/A
Tell the wishing star a little about yourself: Avani is a wishing star child herself and was raised by her mothers. She's never met the stallion speculated to have been her father and she's not bothered by that fact. She's more withdrawn and aloof than her wolf siblings, preferring the life of a mystic to that of a phoenix maiden. She dreamt of Niniane and on the next moon she appeared. It is a belief held between them that she dreamed her into being and they made their pledges to each other underneath the night sky.

Her parents started their family with help from the Wishing Star, that resulted in her two wolf siblings, and now Avani wishes to do the same.

10 Things I Like:
1. Witchery / Mystic Things
2. Her lifemate Niniane
3. Flying Familiars
4. Accessories (any familiar she gets would be dressed up.)
5. Otherworldly vibes
6. Mock child familiar
7. Butterflies

10 Things I Don't Like:
1. Zombies / Rotting
2. Gore
3. Body Horror (Extra eyes is fine though.)
4. Holiday themed things
6. Scenery paintings on ponies / familiars
7. Familiars small enough they could be stepped on
8. Aquatic familiars

What does your character leave as an offering for the wishing star? Locks of hair from Avani and Niniane braided together with feathers and prayers.
