Zareik

the predator in the shadows

the applicant

My name is Hollie and I just turned 18. I also just graduated high school. I haven't enrolled in college because I'm not really sure what I'd like to do with my life yet, but I'm thinking advertising. I live in Georgia and love love love it here. The weather, food, atmosphere, I don't think I could ever leave. I enjoy spending time with my boyfriend, cooking, doing makeup, gaming (huge halo fan!), drawing, partying and etc.

I don't see how teenagers typically "tell their story". I for one, find that life is just beginning. I've yet to embark on any amazing journey or figure out what my life is all about. I have 32 teeth, 206 bones, and lose 300 strands of hair a day. I will have to pay taxes and I will die one day. Until the day comes that I figure myself out, this is all I know for sure.

past & now

I've been a member of neopets since I was 10, meaning that November will be my eighth year. This doesn't mean I'm insanely rich or anything. I've tried to quit before and gotten rid of many of my pets and items. I've finally realized that I can't leave neopets. It's a passion of mine and even though I don't like some of the changes that've been made, I still adore the site. I'd have to say that I log in at least once a day or every two days. The first thing that I do when I get online is zap my pets. I think it is just awesome to watch them morph and change. I often adopt out my zapped pets to people that really want them, but I do trade as well. I don't have a problem with trading as long as both halves are getting something they really enjoy. Anyhow, I also like to browse the BC and neoboards, try for a few avatars, try to "restock" (though I fail miserably, shop for wearables, and more. Neopets is probably my number one visited site.

his new family

I intend to adopt Zareik on an account that I'm trying to make as my new main, which is holliehood. His first sibling would be

Qkr

This is my beloved lutari. He is currently blue. I hope to one day paint him island or pirate. He's very outgoing and has a very warm personality. He is the ideal friend and helps others out whenever possible. I have yet to draw him a custom design yet, but I've already got a pretty strong vision on what I'd like him to look like.

Dioten

Dioten make look cuddly and innocent, but as they say, looks can be deceiving. If you'll check out his petpage here you can find out more about him without me having to stretch this page. In short, I'll just say that Dioten can be a little creepy, but he's brave and has a good head on his shoulders, regardless. It's Vax, his rather scaley counterpart, that you have to may have to worry about.

??? At this point, Zareik does not have a third sibling. I want another pet completely different from the others for it to be complete. I'm considering a royal or something of the likes, but I really am not sure yet.

plans

I really, really would love for Zareik to be the triple painted kougra I've always wanted. I would not repaint him, I would bring another pained kougra with clothes into the family so that I could apply them to Zareik. I would then adopt that kougra out to a loving home so everyone wins! My vision is for him to have the gold desert jewelery minus the headdress, and possibly the pirate clothing. That'd be sort of like a mix between

I'm still not sure specifically, but I reaaaally want him to be my big customization project. I think he'll look so amazing when I'm done. It'd suit the personality I had in mind for him as well. I'd go ahead and draw a custom design for him so that I can roleplay him and *hopefully* enter him in the beauty contest, however kougra is one of the hardest categories and I've only gotten so high as to place third in species,

so I'd have to work extra hard. It'd be worth it though, definitly.

examples

I have many examples of my artwork on my current main (the one I'm trying to switch over)'s lookup. Click here to check some out. Everything I do is done in MS Paint, it's my favorite graphics program. However, I'd love to get into Photoshop if I could afford it. As for roleplaying examples, I don't have much because I just got back into it, but feel free to check out Cahirra and Dioten (whom I linked earlier). I use them very frequently, but sadly haven't updated their pages. I shall get on that soon. I also have included a picture of Zareik, which you should see at the lower portion of this page. I thought it should have it's own section.
