Welcome!

My name is AinadwensEve. Ainadwen is Elvish for 'Lady of the Holy Nigh' - seeing as how I was hatched on Christmas Eve. I am a dragonfly-winged pink striped Elvish Draik (what a mouthful!). Little bits and pieces of my past seem to be revealed daily. Just when I thought I was happy...

To find out more about me, check out my Story.

About Me

I was hatched on a Christmas Eve, only a few short years ago. My life was very simple as a child, I loved my family very much, but I was always longing for something more.

Though I was mostly raised living in the woods of Meridell, when I was but a young adult, I fled Neopia looking for a new life. I found the Draik Clan. There I made friends, found love, and was able to create the life I had always dreamed of.

However, my bliss wouldn't last forever. Shortly after we moved to the new Clan territories, my forgotten twin brother showed up to cause havoc for me and my family. It's that much more stressful with him around and my life will never be the same.

Several other occurrences and encounters threaten to spice up my life daily. I only hope that my children won't ever go through what I have endured.

My Story

My story can be told in several parts. I've gathered several parts together for you to read. They are posted in the order that they happened to me.

Escape
The Mizu family finds an unexpected guest on their front step late at night after she'd been missing for several months. Who is this young girl?
-blocked-/ainadwenseve/celesescape.htm

The Encounter
Ainad and Aire stumble across the last thing they would have expected to find on a snowy November day. Ainad's life is changed forever.
livejournal.com/users/ainad/4633.html#cutid1

Christmas 2004
Ainad, Aire, Naya, and Hugs on Christmas Night. Hugs' Christmas present comes a little late this year - and it's a big surprise for everyone!

Draiks

This is my section for information on Draiks! We're one of the rarest Neopet species (second only to Krawks!) though personally, I think we're loads better ;)

I was hatched from a Draik Egg, so I'm officially counted in the Draik numbers. However, I was hatched so long ago that my owner wasn't really aware of this and, therefore, wasn't able to see what number I was! I was hatched on December 24th, 2002 of that gives you any idea, though! Draiks that become Draiks by drinking a morphing potion or a Transmog potion aren't counted in the "official" number, sadly.

Rose, my owner, owns four Draiks on three different accounts. Sometimes it's hard having other Draiks to compete with, and we don't always get along, but oh well. Below is a picture of all four of us together! Click on each one of us to visit our petpage!



The Draik Clan is a gathering grounds for all types of Draiks. It's a wonderfully diverse place where just about anyone can find something they like whether it's Adoptables, Role-Plays, or even just socialization. Anyone is welcome with the new Guest Forums! Feel free to stop by and check it out even if you don't have a Draik :)


The Draik Clan
http://draikclan.lzrd.net


My Family

I have two families: one that I grew up with here in Neopia, and the one that I currently live with at the Draik Clan. :)

Rose is my owner. Though, really, I hate to call her that - she's the one that raised me. I suppose I owe her a lot, even though we... have our differences. She still sees to taking care of Grover, Alan, and Romani, but I can pretty much handle myself now :)
Alan is my oldest brother. He was adopted into our family when Grover and Romani were, but he came from the pound and was older than the rest of them. He's really great to have around - I think he and I always got along better with each other than with the other two. He's into music and writes a lot of songs.
Grover is my second oldest brother. He's never around much, though, because he's always off working. He's a detective and seems to be obsessed with his job. But, I guess it keeps him occupied and it's something he really loves doing!
Romani is my older sister. It's really weird for me to have an older sister that's a baby... but oh well - I guess our species just age differently. She's a doll, too - I miss spending a lot of time with her. Sometimes I worry about the influence she gets being around guys all the time...
Aire is my daughter. I'm so proud to see her taking so much after me! She's become a wonderful little cook and is always volunteering to do so! Now... if only I could get her to stop including insects in her recipes...
Drev is my twin brother. I know it's hard to tell because of our physical differences, but he went through a change in the middle of his life while I thought he was dead. Now he shows up to threaten me and bug me. He claimed he was going to kill me, but something makes me wonder if he's given up on that.


Petpet



Meet Hugs and Tuggy. Hugs is my Cirrus - he and I have been together since the moment I was hatched years ago. He used to be such a little sweetheart! I think age has finally come bearing down on him a little as he's gotten more and more bitter over the years... He has a tendency to zap my friends with lightning when they say something he doesn't approve of (which is practically anything).

Oh course, even his aggressiveness has a bright side! He makes a wonderful guard pet x3 I'll never have to worry about anyone breaking into my home while I'm gone because Hugs would have them fried before they even made it to the front door! And, since he can rain, he's a wonderful help while I'm gardening - he's like my own portable sprinkler!

Tuggy the Flankin is Hugs' new best friend... and just about the only thing in the world that he actually has taken a fondness to. I don't really understand it myself, but I guess it's worth it just to see him happy :) I just wish Tuggy didn't have such a weird attitude problem... She doesn't set a very good example for Koj and Aire...

You can check out the
Story section if you'd like to read the story on how Tuggy came to be a member of our family!


My Collections

Because my home is small, I like to keep my things at my Neohome in Meridell. I know I shouldn't save these things, but I'm attatched to them! That, and I really love to collect Draik, Cirrus, or Flankin items as well as pink items, and kitchenware.

Want to see my collection? Click on the bracelet below to see all of the stuff I've collected so far.


Also, if you'd like to send something to me that I don't already have, just send it to 'purplepadfoot' and Rose will put your name on my Petpage! Some of the items are priced in an italic number following its name. Items marked "UB" are unbuyable. The following people have contributed to my collection:

The following people get a special thank you for that:

Fanart

This is my fanart section!! Be careful, though we've counted them and I have over 100 pictures... just me! The newer ones will be added to the top, so you can start there if you'd like! We apologize to all of the wonderful artists who have drawn for me since these took forever to be added here - we really do appreciate all of you, and especially your patience during all of this!! Oh, and don't forget that these pictures were all drawn for me and should therefore not be used by anyone else. Please don't steal my lovely pictures - just look at them like everyone else :)

Adoptables

Welcome to my Adoptable Center! Here, you can either adopt a Draik from my current set or click on "Retired" and that will take you to see one of my older Adoptable Sets - so you can adopt them too!


  • Do not alter these images in any way. Do not remove the word "AinadwensEve", do not change the colors, etc.

  • Do not steal these images for use in the Beauty Contest, Art Gallery, etc. I will find you, and you will be punished if you do so.

  • These Adoptables are only available for adoption through this page. If you find anyone else with a site that lets you adopt one of these images there, please let me know.

  • I will never open Custom Requests. Sorry, but my life is too busy for me to randomly make customs for whoever wants one. I will, however, open trades from time to time. Click on the "Trades" link below to see if they are open or not.
  • Though I won't take custom requests, I WILL take color requests. If there is an official Neopets color that I haven't made yet and that you would like me to make, Neomail me and let me know! Chances are, I haven't gotten around to making it, but knowing that someone wants it will put it on the top of the list and I will finish it faster :)

  • To adopt an Adoptable, copy the code provided beneath it. Copy the code EXACTLY and don't alter that code in any way!


  • Select Your Type

    So you've made it this far, have you? Still interested in trading customs with me? Well, my Adoptables are pretty tough customs to make and are very detailed so I have a few rules that you must read before Neomailing me a trade request. Keep in mind, I have been doing Adoptable trades for years. I have learned from several bad experiences that it's best if I make a lot of requirements before I trade. I hope you can understand that.
    • From the time our trade "begins" we each have ONE WEEK to make the trade for the other. That means I expect my custom from you by then. However, I will allow you more time if you need it (for whatever reason) - just ask politely and keep me updated on your progress. We can work something out, I'm sure. :) I've had trouble in the past where I've been cheated out of trades because people conveniently forget or don't pay me back. I'd like to avoid that… This also means that I give you my word that yours will be finished within the same amount of time. If it isn't, then your custom is either free, or you will get any other custom free of charge to make up for me taking too long.

    • You MUST provide me with a full reference picture. I will NOT make customs from descriptions. I eyedropper your images to match the colors exactly - I need an image to do that.

    • Be polite. If you follow all of my rules but are rude to me, then I have any and all right to refuse you. 'Please' and 'thank you' do more than you may think. Respect me and I will respect you in return.

    • I will only trade for full-bodied Adoptables! This means your adoptable must be the same kind that I am making for you and it must be a full body. Not just a head, not just half, the whole thing. My adoptables are full-bodied, so I'd like to trade for a full-bodied adopt in return. Draiks trade for Draiks (STB Draiks are okay, "Dragons" are not), Cirri trade for Cirri, and Flankins trade for Flankins - sorry, but if you don't have the same "kind" I do, we can't trade!

    • I will provide an "Adoptable Trade Request Form" below. Copy that exactly and Neomail it to me when trades are open to start a trade. If you do not follow this rule, then I will ignore your Neomail.

    • This goes without saying, but any trades with me will be trading for customs of my Draik, AinadwensEve (nickname: Ainad); my Cirrus, Hugs, and my Flankin, Tuggy. Their full refs can be found here:
      http://www.deviantart.com/view/32332616/
      Every detail to their designs can be seen on that - if you have any questions about them, feel free to ask.

    • It's always a good idea to save any custom I make for you to your own computer. There's no telling when my server will go down - this way you'll always have it. If you upload it to your own server, please be sure that you still link it back to Ainad's page.

    • If you have any questions about my trades, please don't be afraid to Neomail me and ask. Trust me, it's better to ask a simple question than to royally mess up and annoy me later on ;) Make sure you include the species/set that you are talking about, though, so I know which one (I have a lot or adoptable sets, so I need for you to be specific!)

    Okay… I think I've covered everything. If I haven't scared you away yet AND if you've read all of the rules twice you may now Neomail me with the Adoptable form.
    • Pet's Full Name and Nickname:
    • Pet's Species:
    • Pet's Full Picture Reference (actual link to the image):
    • Where will you use your new custom?
    • Example of the Adoptable set you will be trading with (actual link):
    • Where should I link your adoptable back to? (provide actual link)
    • Have you read all of my rules and will you swear to follow them?

    Thank you for considering a trade with me :) I hope you will be happy with your new pixel Adoptable!


    My Customs

    Oh dear... I have so many customs that we had to move them all to their own page x3 Be careful while viewing, it has a lot of images! However, we decided to keep a few of them here - that way my most recent customs get a chance to be in the spotlight! The newest one is showed first - special thanks to everyone who's made me a custom!!

    Roleplay

    So you'd like to Roleplay with Ainad, huh? Well, great! But don't think you're going anywhere right away, there are a few things that I want to get across before you Neomail me. Most of what I'm about to tell you can be clarified more in
    Ainad's F.A.Q.s, My F.A.Q.s, and at Igan's RP Guide.

    Before you decide on a pet that you want to meet Ainad, there are a few things to keep in mind. First off, I will only RP Ainad with Draiks. I'm sorry, but Ainad lives in a land where only Draiks can gather... and I don't want random Yurbles trying to be her friend to look cool. Secondly, just because we RP them, that doesn't necessarily mean they'll become best friends or mates or whatever so don't count on it. We are RPing solely to introduce our pets. Whether they become friends/enemies/whatever is up to how they react to each other - nothing is guaranteed. If you just want to RP so your Draik can use Ainad as a status symbol, FORGET IT. The same goes for art - I rarely draw fanart and, when I do, it's either for my sisters or it's for friends I've had for years. So if you're RPing with me just to get free art/adoptables - find another sucker-artist to pester.

    There are a few things that you should know about Ainad before you decide to RP with her. Now, just because I'm going to share these with you doesn't necessarily mean that your pet knows them. For instance, Ainad is a very motherly, loving, sweet Draik. She has her tendancies to be very... stupid at times and can act very blonde/dense. But that's why we love her x) She lives in a small white cottage within a magical meadow in Draik Clan lands with her daughter. She loves to knit and cook. While she's actually very talented at knitting, she's severely lacking in her cooking skills. She's been known to use vanilla extract and picante sauce in the same recipe... there's even a rumor that her cooking killed someone once. So it's best to avoid eating her cooking if you can. Ainad also has a twin brother (Drev) who is out to kill her for allowing him to be captured by soldiers (more info. about that in Story section). Ainad loves to meet new people and loves to throw parties! Recently, though, she's been a little down as one chapter of her life has recently closed leaving her empty-nested and broken-hearted. Right now, though she'd be the last to admit it, she'd really love a little good company. Will she ever love again? Who knows? To learn more about Ainad, see her in 'action', and read more into her history, be sure to check out her Story Section!

    Now, if you think you have a pet that might get along (or clash - because opposites/rivalries are really fun too), read Ainad's F.A.Q.s, check my Lookup to see if RPs with Ainad are open, and then go ahead and drop me a Neomail! Be sure to tell me which one of my pets you want to RP with, tell me which one of your pets you want to use and any important info about them. I want to be sure that they are compatible with Ainad (whether positive/friendly or negative/enemy). Please keep in mind that I want to try and limit Ainad to roleplaying with Draiks only. This is because too many people try to use my limited edition pets as status symbols for their lame, unpainted, 7 hour old pets with names like "britney920138spearsneo" (but, of course, she goes by "Kairi"!!111) :p I will keep an open mind, however - and if you have a non-Draik or a soon-to-be that you can really impress me with, I may be open to an RP. Try me - but you'll have to impress me if your pet isn't a Draik - that's all I'll say. Once I think our pets could have a good RP, I'll usually say something like "Okay, why don't you send an intro." You can start RPing with your next Neomail.

    Don't worry about being super-formal, because it doesn't really matter to me. I do prefer the Story-style over Chat-Style (refer to my RP Guide if you don't know what that means), but I will follow whichever mode you are most comfortable with :) Do be warned, though, if I get bored or if things just aren't working out, I'll either seriously slow replies or I'll just stop replying altogether. I also go through 'busy periods' where I may only reply once a week. This is normal for me so don't Neomail me saying "omg howcome you haven't replied, it's been like four days!!!" :p

    Thank you for reading all of that - I look forward to RPing with you. I'm sorry there's so much to be said on this subject, but I've had a lot of bad experiences in the past - everything from people using my characters for popularity to people using me for free art. I'm just trying to avoid these things from happening any more than they have to :)


    Frequently Asked Questions

    Please read these before Neomailing my owner... she gets very picky about that kinda stuff!

    The following questions are specific to Ainad. For all of my F.A.Q.s, general to all of my pets/accounts/everything you'd want to know, please check Brenda's Page :)

    Ainad-Specific Questions

    How did you afford a Draik??
    I wanted one really hard, so I saved up and bought her Green Draik Egg. x33 Of course... back then Eggs were only around 500K xD She was my Christmas present to myself on Christmas Eve, 2002 :)

    Can my pet date Ainad??
    Start packing. She's not looking and is not interested - she's very happy with Koarai.

    Can Ainad be friends with my Draik/Pet??
    Probably not... she has too many friends as it is (xD) and I only really RP her at the Draik Clan. Unless you've got a Draik and an account there, she's not open for RP. If you do get an account there, though, feel free to PM me and we can figure something out x33 (Please read the FAQ question regarding RPing on Brenda's Page, read Ainad's section on "Roleplay" (above) and check my lookup before PMing me to RP

    Can I draw a picture for Ainad?
    Yeeeey!! ^^ Of course you may!! We love getting fanart!

    What is the Draik Clan?
    The Draik Clan is a website/forum exclusively for Draik owners. If you have a Draik, I highly suggest you sign up - it's a great way to meet new people, get custom adoptables, art critiques, and it offers high-quality role-playing ;) Ainad and I hang out there a lot x3 Location: http://draikclan.lzrd.net

    Thanks for reading! If you have any other ideas or further questions relating to or about Ainad that I should add on here, feel free to Neomail me!
