This will be a short contest hosted while we all wait for breeding season to open up. It will run until September 28th which gives you until almost the end of the month to complete entries and a few days for judging.

How to Enter
1) Photo: One nice, clear photo of your wyrm. It should be sized so it does not stretch out the forum. It should show the wyrm’s personality.
2) A write-up of the wyrm’s personality to go with the image. The most fun part of the game is coming up with how your wyrm behaves. I want that personality to shine!

Rules
1) You may only enter ONE wyrm. It should be your own.
2) If you don’t have a wyrm you may still enter by entering a drawing of your dream wyrm and what their personality would be.
3) You may use photoshop but only to adjust colours/lighting. Your expression should come through the photo itself.
(For example: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/BPAxz9wCUAATgFf.jpg Asana has apologetic eyes in this image but https://pbs.twimg.com/media/BPBudXlCUAEDk49.jpg in this one she looks angry. No editing was done to provide these just poses and angles.)

Just post here wth a photo followed by a write up of the personality.

I'll be entering soon! My camera lens is broken, leaving me with just a telescopic lens. Not a problem when photographing quilts. A larger problem for photographing wyrms.

The gears grind in his head as he processes the situation.

SELF wyrm 'Murcielago'
FUNCTION wyrm guards and protects treasure
QUERY define:treasure
RETURN treasure = precious shiny things

formulating identification algorithm for 'treasure'
IF thing = shiny
AND thing = precious
THEN thing = treasure
RETURN protect treasure

running identification algorithm on frienddragon
frienddragon = shiny
AND
frienddragon = precious
THEN
frienddragon = treasure
RETURN protect treasure

He curls himself around the dragon, shielding it with his larger frame, puffing up his fur so that he would appear larger and more menacing. Wyrm guards and protects treasure. He glares at the intruder and carries out his function.

Wyrm Observation Journal -- Friday, September 13th, Year 2013
Guess who caught the adventurous mischief-maker Bartolomeus causing a ruckus in the spice rack again? Yep. That swirl snout has made quite a stir knocking around all the jars, and there's a whole bunch of oregano and garlic powder all over the floor! How am I supposed to get that smell out of the air? I think someone should take a bit of "thyme" to think about what he's doing before rummaging around in the seasonings! Haha... I suppose I can't stay mad at him for long though. Someone has to look after the little troublemaker. He'll teach the other two this kind of behavior for sure if I don't keep a close eye on him... Oh no! I think I just heard a crash in the other room! Better go see what he's gotten into now...
---The End ? ? ?

Just posting to remind everyone this is still up. You still have a few more days to enter. <3

Will be entering ^^
Watch this space.

Question: could there be other wyrms in the photo as long as the one we enter is the most featured in it?
