Playing: Nausicaa of the valley of the wind theme (xD)
Welcome Signe (and others) for my petpage application for your amazing pirate draik, Seronera, or Rone. My name is Aspen, and I must remind you that Rone is pronounced Roni (or at least in my head) c: Lets continue, and I hope your questions will be answered (and that you don't fall asleep)
LOS!
The small waves gently lapped at the cliffs wall, filling in each crack carefully. It was a lulling process, almost like a soft lullaby. A large cave was in the middle of it all, a large pelican in its nest rested peacefully above its entrance. The cave was dark and uninviting, with stalactites that hung down low like fangs from a monster of the deep, while dripping with saltwater in a rhythmic pattern.
As you came closer, you could hear the whistling and the howling from the wind going through the cave. Goosebumps ran along your cold arms, and then a golden glint at the end of the cave flash. It pushes your courage and you work your way around the jagged floor that slashes your legs as you pass, you wince with each cut. Silent thoughts loomed over your head as to what could lie in the cave
Then you arrive where the cave suddenly widens, and to your surprise you see heaps of gold and other magnificent treasures (and a small sign which reads, do not enter) you enter in awe only to receive a blood-curdling snarl. A dragon-like figure jumped onto a large satin pillow which laid on the largest gold heap. "Doesn't anybody read signs anymore?"

Story

He felt the cool breeze comb through his hair. Rone felt he could finally settle down... He felt done with the hard life of a pirate, and his stomach was greatful he wasn't on a boat. Laying down carefully in the long grass, he stared out into the choppy sea; he couldn't have picked a better place. The sun slowly lowered, turning the water into a bright ember. Rone grinned before lowering his head, resting it on his large paws before closing his eyes contently. He was home.
Rone never had planned to leave his small family. He had one brother, and one sister; both hated each other miserably. Seronera had grown up with only his mother, though she hated them all as the siblings hated each other; it was in their anti-social nature, but his mothers instinct to care for the pips was to strong so she kept them around (painfully).
Rone still loved his family greatly, still secretly of course. His mother even minded his company, slightly though. He would watch her do her every day chores silently, often helping her, but he knew what was to come… he was going to be kicked out eventually, the thought pained him greater than anything.
Anything shiny always caught Rone's eye, and that's what he wanted to do when he left. He wanted to see the world and its magnificent treasures. The thought of owning anything shiny pleased him, and he could almost forget that he would have to leave his family.
Time went by much to fast, and Seronera was nearly a fully grown Draik. His other siblings had left almost immediately, but Rone was tempted to stay. His mother detested the fact that he still followed her around like a helpless pip, and would try to chase him off with crude and harsh words. Seronera left his den, the den he grew up in as a child.
Being able to explore the world was almost enough to help Rone to be happy once again. He also found that he did not have 'sea legs' and the thought of sailing made him irked, but he was young and strong, and he felt he could handle it; his lust for gold and other amazing treasures had grown so strong, and nothing could stop him from plundering and thieving towns and cities. Seronera had learned the life of a pirate.
Seronera squeezed his eyes tightly as he lumbered towards the docks, back to the ship again, to sail the world unknown. He dug his large paws into the splintered wood one last time before climbing onto a large ship, large white letters on the side read "Caroline". Even when the ship was still, Rone's stomach churned.
RONE!" A loud voice boomed over the deck "If you DARE get sick on my boat AGAIN, I will throw you in with the sharks!" A large stocky Grarl stormed from the wheel. Rone cringed.
O' course, Captain" He nodded, giving a grim look. He probably would prefer the sharks over the rocky boat. Seronera was still young, luckily. His mane was like any other mane, and his large muscular body tightened as he walked. "O' course, Captain…" he repeated to himself once again silently as he slinked off, almost cat-like. Boats, how he detested them!
The Captain mumbled under his breath as Rone walked away without the Captains approval. Rone was a handful, and he had no clue why he even let him on his precious "Caroline". He turned back to the wheel, at least they would arrive their destination in a day… He sighed to himself and shook his head.
The next day arrived and the boat arrived at the docks in the early morning. The morning air was chilling, but it satisfied Rone. He stared at the birds which flew over head, cawing and crowing at the boat. The sound of calmer waters soothed Seronera's stomach, and land looked so amazing
When he felt the woody docks under the soles of his paws, he gave a long sigh of relief. He had heard far from his home there was an island with many treasures, and he had now arrived on that island. The sight really was amazing, gold statues littered the streets as the residents passed, gold jewelry weighing them down. He had reached a PARADICE.
One statue caught his eye. It wasn't welded into the ground; it lay almost helplessly in a shady corner, mud covering it. The statue was a small golden bird, it had one ruby eye. It was obviously an easy take, and he slowly walked towards it, almost waiting for someone else to swipe it up and run.
He reached out for the poor thing. It felt cool to his rough callused paws. "Ello' Mate" he smiled at it and held it tightly to his chest, though it wasn't even a living thing. "You're comin' with me Rusteh" His smile turned into a large toothy grin before scanning the ground for its other eye. A small red glint sparkled through the hideous trash; Rone picked it up and jammed it into the empty eye socket. It sticked; with the help of sticky trash of course.

Rusty
Rusty is just a plain statue that Rone babies around. Rone isn't necessarily fond of petpets, or any moving creature at that.
In roleplays with Rone he will often make a big deal about Rusty, because Rone secretly misses his family and greatly dislikes the fact that G'rels are anti-social, though he doesn't mind himself being rude and being anti-social.
TBRW...
Rone has a secret life with an amazingly beautiful draikess far off on Island off Shenkuu. He stumbled on the hidden Island on one of his many travels, only to find an amazing island nearly made of gold and gems, even the natives looked like treasure.
His draikess would actually probably slaughter Rone for calling her his "Me girl" Rone still does. He even admits he loved her for her jeweled skin and gold scales before he got to know her more, but that's normally how it goes; looks and then the personality.

Family
Arty is just an odd little aisha who steals peoples tuna, and can be very annoying. He can act childish but can act very suave and cool in the same conversation; he normally always ends up with a shoe jammed in his face after every conversation... he also takes his hygiene very seriously and will go crazy if you break one of his nails or splatter mud on him.
Surul is a mage/pharoahess of a small civilization in the middle of no where. She often morphs herself into large powerful monsters to keep her empire under control, trying to prevent them from leaving into the outside world. She is very moody and will often wipe out her gaurds if they catch her at the wrong time.
Malzora has no particular story, she's just that one hyper character everyone makes every now and then. I'm hoping that some day I will be able to give her an amazing story, but for now she's just my hyper Alzi.
(but I still lo-ove her o3o)
Amunett is a golem who was created to work in a circus. When the ring master suddenly snapped, destroying the circus, Amunett stopped him by killing him and now lives on his own silently in his old tent. He is a very lonely creature and loves anything pretty and sparkly; though there's not much of that around where he lives. His past now haunts him for now he has learned he loves blood, which causes him to feel guilty every second of his artificial life
Cali was once a rogue vampire, killing everything in sight. One day she met a large kougra who had gold dipped wings and markings who offered her help. She is now a guardian of a lost pharaohs' hoard of treasures.
Lost cali in a pound transfer :/ too remake her soon... soon
Peeps
Some Enemies, Some Friends
Felester (appyrodeo)- Rone met Felester in a pub, they were both going the same direction and decided it would be best to travel together; since then they've been pretty chummy... and that is much to rare for Rone; he has a secluded personality after all.
Though they have an almost opposite personality as Felester loves to sail while Rone gets sea sick looking at a boat.
Rathlun- to also be filled out soon
LeaDone- Rone hates LeaDone. He dislikes any two-leggers. He thinks Lea is much to whiney and should just shut her mouth about how 'stinky' her life is was. He still of course thinks she's gorgeous, one of the prettiest creatures he's ever seen. That won't stop him from hating her, though.
Neomail me if you'd like to roleplay with Rone

Golden Statues
G'rels
G'rels are a sub-specie of an average draik. They are extremely rare and live on their own; normally why they're so few.
Their appearances includes any colour with a lighter or darker underbelly and snout. They normally have square-like spots and on very rare occasions, stripes. Their markings can be any colour. G'rels eyes are known for their deep colours and for looking mysterious and devious. Their tails are short but have a long thick hair at the end with a large tuft of hair at the tip. They are also very small (about the size of a large dog-great Dane-) but are extremely strong. They also have strong legs which they use for jumping off cliffs.
G'rel's personalities are very sensitive. They can be very kind once second before screaming at everything in sight; in other words, they have mood swings. They also have very sensitive ears so they can hear any rude comment and just about anything else
Males have long curled horns which range from any colour while females lack the horns. Females normally have a longer mane also.
If you would like to create a G'rel, just neomail me and go ahead

About Me
My name is Caitlyn, but I normally go by Aspen. I love to sculpt small clay charms after my idol, poisonantidote (or chat-noir.deviantart) and normally spend my weekends drooling over the delicious looking charms. I also love to draw or just any art in general; even as a small child (or as soon as I could hold things). I also have a strong obsession with bananas... and mushrooms
I'm also a very musical person. I play the bass clarinet, baritone saxamaphone, piano, guitar, and slightly the flute~ I love music 8D.
On neo people separate me in three groups:
that crazy hyper loveable girl
That emo whiney girl
And that mature sensible Aspen
but it's really up to you to chose
Growing up I was just one of those girls who spent those sunny beautiful days inside on the internet or watching TV... slowly turning herself into a vampire, and I did have fangs; until my parents forced braces on me.
I also own an awesomely awesome active art guild called Therosion.
I spend a lot of my time there o3o
Neo History:
I have been playing neo for nearly six years now (with different, now lost, accounts)
I have never been frozen, and I have only received four warnings in my six years on neo
Main: caitlyncatjackson
Side: Tangled_grapes
Side: Emportement
New Side: Yielns
Transferring:
I really don't have much history with transfers, but the majority of the few was successful
Caliclean-Christmas/beefed up-semi/successful (x6)
Loich-yellow-successful (x2)
Lida293-glowing-successful
Past applications :
Baby Gelert-lost
Dishonor-Darigan Draik-taken down from adoption
Sehu-Green krawk-computer virus/grounded unable to finish xD
Savant-UCDariDraik-lost (probably the app I worked the hardest on)
Xyphero-draik-(I got in the argument with the owner AND my computer still had a virus and froze on the day of the deadline -lucky me-)
Chisalu-UCfaeriedraik-lost
I should probably clarify that these applications were spread out (so I don't look like a heartless applier xD )
The BG was four years ago when I had first joined. Dishonor took place in February of 2006 and Sehu in April-May
Savant was in fall/winter of 2006/2007
Xyphero was in the winter-ish of 2007
Chisalu was last two weeks of May.
Whoa. That doesn't seem right D8 *thinks hard* I'm turning into an oooldd neopian!
Why Rone?
The second to last week of school I had noticed a certain draik when up for adoption, Chisalu. Chisalu was a draik that I have always adored secretly in my newbie past. She was just absolutely amazing. I immediately started to apply
but it was the last week of school and everything was due that week or the next week, and lucky me, the deadline was my first day of summer break. I was unable to finish her app or draw anything for her
After my defeat, I decided I wanted to do a dedicated truly amazing application, it took me four days until I found an old sketch in my files of a draik pirate I was considering on creating (or applying if one came around). I checked neopound one last time and nearly fell off my seat, Seronera. I happily altered the design slightly to be more fitting for his name, and I had a soon to be application.
I was still unsure if I should be so dedicated, though. I have never made an application that impressed an owner enough to give me the pet, even a badly named baby gelert whose name was almost like bab3g3l3rtt892310401332425676752156328. I just don't have any luck with applications.
I eventually decided it should be worth it.
(And he's cuter than a babeh)
Why Me?
Why me? My absolute most least favorite section in an application, so excuse me if it sounds weak.
-I keep true to my word unlike some other applicants who only show their newly 'won' pet as a trophy, not giving/doing anything to/with the pet they promised to do. Sure my pet's pages aren't the greatest, but I get them all done eventually
-Seronera deserves to be in the bc, and that's what I plan to do with him, because recently I've gotten in a bc kick (though I always end up redoing the pictures instead of entering them... -.-)
-If I get a goal I become determined, and nothing can stop me from at least trying to get it. I'll play games (even if I should be doing chores or studying) I'll restock everything I own and will poke my friends until they offer helpful neopoint earning advice.
-I'm an artist. I'm not a writer, but I'm an artist.
Why NOT me?
Now my most favorite section, I have much to fun putting myself down... Hey, that's a reason why not to choose me! 8D
I'm a procrastinator, yes I said I get things done, but only eventually. I get discouraged easily so if I'm doing something and dislike it I'll quit
I'm a perfectionist, funny for a 'Why NOT me?' section. It's to the point where I don't get things done, or I just finely do it overly sloppily. If I miss something that I couldn't see in photoshop and thought "I worked so hard on this! It's so perfect!" I wont fix it (as you can probably tell in some places).
And then I redesign my pets almost daily. Why is this bad? It means they never really have a petpage, and that means I can't ever enter them into the bc or do other fun stuff with them.
I'm also poor; I of course get my goals eventually, though it normally takes a year or two. It took me three years to get my lab map (mainly because the price inflated right on the days I would have enough money... lucky me) or I'll just blow my neopoints off somewhere on something
Plans
Well, first is first
I will most definitely absolutely will enter Rone into the bc, and I WILL get him the gold, even if it takes me years and years of re-entering him every week (well maybe not every week xD) He NEEDS the gold or his lust will never be tamed to a normal level c:
I think I stated some where back that I never entered the bc, well... I decided I should start and I have so far won a bronze trophy for Malzora. Leadone and Surul weren't as lucky... for I slacked off those weeks xD
He will go on my main account, Caitlyncatjackson. If I decided to create his mate, I will probably ship him off to my side with her, which is, Yielns. He definitely deserves an active account though.
I've never had luck with the NT but I will at least try to make a comic starring him and get it in, of course that probably wont work... No harm in trying though!
I guess I can haul myself off my special internet chair and go down to target and buy some neocash... I will be buying him the Smugglers Cove Background and the treasure box.
Refrence sheet
Roleplay

How he loved the sea. The smell, the creatures, the adventures. He smiled, thinking of all the fun and trouble he would get into at port. It was always a mischevious adventure for him, his time at port. He opened his eyes, his crew doing a fine job of docking the ship.
."Fine job men!" he said. It was a bit odd..seeing a canine run a ship of men. But this was something he had achieved in his lifetime. Felester, as he was called, was soon off the ship. "Aye..I love a good visit to port. Wonder what'll happen this time." he muttered to himself, finishing his sentence with a brisk chuckle. He walked on, getting ever so closer to the pubs.
Aspen: nearby was a ship with another peculiar creature. He hung over the side of the ship, defeated, while occasionally spitting out the remains of his half-digested meal(lol) he slowly lifted his head and shivered, swiping his white paw across his mouth while grabbing a golden statue of a bird which leaned against his tail, its ruby eye staring off into the abyss. "Come Rust-eh" the draik snorted while swaying towards the port, jumping on the sides (a wonderful advantage, being able to jump off high ledges) the laughter of drunken fools soothed his mind, he disliked sailing, he disliked it immensely and the sounds of land was just the thing for the seasick draik. Seronera grinned at the smells of fresh food and drinks "Land!" he cried out joyously
Appyrodeo: Felester dug his claws deep within the soil, the earth soft beneath his feet. He looked around at the ruff looking village. Garbage layed about everywhere. His face scrunched up in a disgusted manner. As certain building caught his eye, a pub no doubt. He made an unnoticeable entrance. He was quickly at the bar, searching for the bar tender. "Aye." he blurted out. "Get me eh jig o' rum." he commanded, tossing a dubloon on the counter. He grabbed the drink in front of him and seemed to chug it down. The cup was placed down with a deep, happy sigh. Although money was not an issue, Felester liked to take his time, almost as to savor every gulp. He sat quietly, observing all the odd faces that surrounded him.
Aspen: Rone stumbled into the nearby pub, his throat dry and his stomache rumbling. He was sure he could find some food around the shabby town; though he was cheap and probably would steal it rather than take a dubloon from his large bag of coins which sat on his back. A lupe at the bar cought his eye, he looked rich; or at least to Rone. Rone stumbled over to the spot next to the canine, pushing a dubloon towards the bar tender. "Rum also," He gave a rather toothy grin to the lupe, cocking his head "'ello mate"
Name Meaning

Farewell
I really hope you're still reading, Signe.
I've actually lost applications because they were to long, I actually tried to hold back this time xD I was successful at that, aye? and the pictures are all weird sizes :/ I'm really bad at sizes and going back to change them xD LAZEHNESS!
I really do hope that you consider me for Rone as his owner, after making this I have fallen absolutely more in love with him. He is just an amazing character, so I hope you had fun reading this; I definitely had fun writing it all.
I really feel like I should add more, but I have no clue what x) but this is the end, and I'm sorry if I ever dissapointed you... my biggest fear is contacting people I don't know, I'm that shy. So... Tchuss miene guter fruende!
