Introduction

Hello! My name is Reika, and I am applying for DRAIK NAME the pirate Draik.
While I think it would be egotistical of me to say I deserve DRAIK NAME, I cannot suppress my desire for her. She is lovely, her name is lovely, and I would just be honored to have her.

I feel I must apologize for the simple layout. It's been such a long time since I've done a complicated layout, and as you will be choosing an owner soon, there simply isn't the time to relearn html and make DRAIK NAME a proper layout. For that, I am sorry.

In this application, I will explain why I wish to adopt her, what my plans for her are, and other such things. I know I've said as much in my neomail, but doing a petpage application sounded so fun (which it is!) that I decided to do one anyway.

Thank you in advance for reading this!




What I Would Do If I Got DRAIK NAME

I have a few plans for DRAIK NAME, so I will break it up in sections.

First, however, I would like to explain why I would like to adopt her.
Yes, her color and name are gorgeous, and they ARE part of why I want to adopt her. But there's more to it than that. It's hard to explain. You know how you look at pets other people have that are the same species and color as one of your pets as well as with just as good a name and stats, but you prefer your pet over theirs despite the fact that they're practically the same? It's like that with me and my pets, and I have that same feeling towards DRAIK NAME. Adopting or creating another Draik with that color and a good name wouldn't really be same.
A good example of what I mean is Trojah. I originally adopted her as a male Lupe. No, I didn't create her, but I love her SO much. When my account was broken into and she was stolen from me, I was in tears. My account was not a big deal as I knew I'd get it back. It was losing her that tore me up. I didn't create her, but I love her more than if I had. I believe I'd feel the same towards DRAIK NAME. If I adopted her, and then lost her like I did Trojah, I know I'd be just as devastated. Not because she's a Draik, I can always get another Draik, but because no other pet could replace her.

Customization

I have just the perfect items in my closet for her. They are:

Coffin Clutch
Dark Princess Gown
Designer Eye Patch (the sparkliest and prettiest eye patch you'll ever see!)
Flower Beauty Mark (oops! Looks I forgot to put that in the above picture)
Smugglers Cove Background
Goparokko Staff (her character carries a staff spear)
Royal Girl Draik Tiara and Hair

Petpet

A pirate Yullie:

For three reasons:

1. Because they're the cutest little pirates you'll ever see

2. DRAIK NAMEs character has a pet Yullie

3. A bit egotistic of me, I s'pose, but I've always wanted a special pet of mine to have a Yullie because the pet name sounds close to my real name (Julie). It's got that, "OMG it's like it's meant for me!" feeling, you know?

Character/Story

This is something I'm still working through as DRAIK NAME will be my first lasting story character. All of my other pets and their characters are role play characters. DRAIK NAME is different; instead of coming up with a past and then role playing her present and future, I'll be writing all three: her past, her present, and her future. I've never done that before, and as such, coming up with the details is a little more complicated. Still, I'll tell you what I've got so far.

A spy for either Meridell or Mystery Island, one who spies on the opposing land (either Brightvale or Krawk Island) for money. She's greedy at first, willing to spy for the sake of money regardless of who it might hurt. However, when her homeland becomes in danger, she realizes that, deep down, she loved that place all along and must find a way to get the opposing land to trust and help her.
That's the rough idea. I'm still working on how it would play out and the like.




What I Would Do If I Didn't Get DRAIK NAME

Cry, throw a tantrum, break my belongings, deactivate my account and chuck my computer out the window, then sit in a corner and mope forever.

In all seriousness, I would congratulate the new owner, then probably put my other goals aside and simply save up for a pirate Draik and give that Draik the same story, character, etc. that I had planned for DRAIK NAME. As it is, I love DRAIK NAME. Not just because of her gorgeous name, but for the reasons I explain in the What I Would Do If I Got DRAIK NAME part of this application. Sure, I could easily save for my own, but it wouldn't quite feel the same, you know?
Regardless, I can take a loss and move on with no ill feelings. Whether I'm chosen or not, I sincerely wish for a good home for DRAIK NAME. ^_^ After all, that's the main goal of her being UFA in the first place, and I would be pleased just to know she went to a caring owner.




Artwork I've Done For Her


This sketch was my initial concept design of the character that DRAIK NAME would become. She was to be a spy who did her job only for the money. She would later realize how much she truly cares for the kingdom she works for when a danger threatens it, and it would be up to her and an opposing kingdom to save it.


This is what DRAIK NAMEs design would be, without her black cloak. The dress is a dark gray color with red lining and belt. Her hair color would be dark brown.


A rough sketch of DRAIK NAME with her cloak on, hood down. It's also the sketch of the colored picture at the top of this page.



DISCLAIMER

I made this application for DRAIK NAME of my own accord. OWNER NAME did not, in any way, shape, or form, require me to make this application. It was my desire to do it, not hers.
