STICKY: Crowley's Curses: Rules, Warnings.....Update!
Posted: Sat Jan 25, 2014 1:55:41 pmCrowley’s Curses
Crowley is a demonic wyrm, and as such, is always looking to make a wicked deal. He listens for his name being spoken anywhere in the world, by Handler or Wyrm, and will appear when invoked.
As with most extraordinary events, a Curse comes with certain conditions. As with Big Q’s Blessings, a Handler requesting that a Curse be bestowed upon a hatchling wyrm must jump through a few hoops….
1. As a Demon, he can bestow -curses- upon his victims. BUT, the Handler (or a Wyrm to be bred) must ASK, in the form of a wish or desire, for Crowley’s ‘help’ in making their wish/desire come true. More on that later....
2. The Curse is bestowed upon a breeding pair's offspring. ONE Curse per baby.
3. Each handler must request their own Curse. The Curse will use up a breeding of each parent, however unlike how clutchmates normally work, each baby will use up ONE Curse.
4. There are only 13 Curses, no more will be made after these 13 are used up.
5. The ONLY token that may be used with the Curse is a Plus One token.
6. An offering of a donation to ANY ANIMAL-BASED CHARITY is the price you must pay for Crowley’s ‘help’. (Not your soul, much to Crowley’s disappointment.) A screencap copy of the confirmination page *after payment* must be sent to HM and Arazia for confirmination. -This is AFTER you have been approved for the breeding.-
7. As you can probably guess, you must be careful of what you wish for. Asking a favour from a demon rarely ends well. Your wish or desire will probably be twisted into something funny or horrible, as long as it amuses Crowley.
8. No matter what the size of the parents, teacups, minis, standards, or greats, the Curse creates only Minis.
9. You can be sure that the Curse will be twisted, and the results will be TOTALLY UP TO THE WHIMS OF THE SCULPTOR/ARTIST! The hatchling may or may not have characteristics of its parents. If you are not okay with the horrid/ridiculous results you may get, do NOT sign Crowley’s Contract!! (remember poor Kevin/Boobhead!)
10. You must ask for approval from 3 people in this order, Myself, HM, Arazia. You must have approval from all THREE (plus the handlers of the wyrms you will be using), in order for a Curse to be approved.
11. Once approved, your spot for a breeding is reserved. Since there is going to be a severe limit on Minis for each breeding season, you may not be able to get yours the next season. Don't worry. Your Curse is reserved for you, for whenever you are able to get your mini slot. This rule has been changed so that D does not get swamped by mini orders (Royal and Cursed.)
12. You pay the donation when your breeding goes through at the start of breeding season. If the donation is not paid, your baby loses the Curse and is reverted to whatever correct size it would be without the Curse.
13. Extra special genes such as Lace and PB will NOT pull through on a Curse. Remember, you do NOT know what you will get.
14. Except for being Cursed, the hatchlings suffer no other evil effect. They are, however, sterile.
15. Wait time is dependent upon the Sculptor/artist’s schedule. Minis take longer to create than teacups.
16. *BIG RULE* HANDLER THAT WILL BE OWNING/REQUESTING *you cannot request for someone else!!!* MUST BE OVER 18.
17. This is the hard part. The wish or desire to attract Crowley’s attention must be in the form of a FANFIC. It does not need to be long; even two paragraphs will do. But, and this is the important part, the fic must tell why the wyrm or handler wants Crowley’s help.
Example: In breeding two Marine wyrms, the Handler wants the hatchling to have wings! ‘Impossible’, say the wyrms. ‘We are deep-sea creatures...we have no need of wings!’ But the Handler wants the hatchling to be a master of both Sea and Sky, and so enlists Crowley’s help. ‘I will make my deal with you, O Dark One, if you will make my little sea-wyrm a master of both Sea and Sky!’ Crowley smiles, showing all of his toothy glory. ‘It will be done...and may you be ‘happy’ with the results.....” His evil laugh lingers long after he has vanished. (This is not two paragraphs, but you get the idea, right?)
Remember...your deal with Crowley will always be perverted into something either funny or wicked or horrible...at the artist’s discretion. That is what you get for making a deal with a demon, after all!
Cost: Mini wyrm will be $120 plus shipping. This is to be sent to HMS as usual.
A donation of at least $15.00 to any animal-based charity. (to be made after breeding is approved.)
A FanFic telling about the deal being made with Crowley, to be published in the Writing section of the Forums. (again, after the breeding is approved.)
Good luck...you’ll need it.
There will be a limit to how many of these minis will be made each season, at the request of D. The minis will not be as big as Crowley and Castiel. (they were really freakin’ huge for minis!)
Here is the current list for those wanting Curses!
Since the Curse can now be used whenever you are able to get a mini slot for breeding season (which are going to be limited!), the Curse will be held for you until you can use it. If you do not want to be on this list any more, please let me know!
