This place was nothing like earth. The skies were blue, yes, and the air was crisp. But there were no gray buildings, no sky scrapers, no cars or freeways or streets-- no pollution. The sky was always clear and the air was always... clean and pleasant.
The mountain ranges curved like a crescent moon here, their backs against an ocean and the inner area a warm, lush meadow. The peaks were carved out, a kingdom within the many tunnels in the mountainside. Cherry trees could be found everywhere, their pink petals littered all over the tall grass.
Dragons of all colors gathered here, flying across the sky, looking like they were trying to reach the two distinct outlines of moons in the sky. She slowly came into view, the magnificent dragon's odd, metal wings folding to her side. Her blue eyes meet yours, the silence almost breathtaking. Now you must decide-- will you stay or go?

- Taska dislikes sweets. She hates ice cream, hates cookies, hates chocolate-- need I say more?
- She is ex-royalty, and dislikes the way some royal creatures hold themselves, and the idea of royalty all together.
- Taska loves cherry blossom trees.
- She also enjoys alone time. She hates spending too much time with people, unless they share the same interests in her.
- Interests? Those include cars, planes, aircrafts, engineering, building, taking things apart, reading, and so on and so forth.
- She's a sucker for jewelry. Gold happens to be her favorite color.
- She role plays Human and Quad-- that's all. (:

After losing her wings, being left with nothing. For a while, she was wingless, but when she met Hide she learned about the energy of Green Stars. She built the wings out of all different sorts of metals and gears that she painted over with gold, and the inner wing is an unknown cloth.
Though they don't look too sturdy, but she can fly with them. They bend like regular wings, but she can remove them which she sometimes does so she can rest and relax, or make adjustments.
She was born with regular angelic wings just like her parents. But an awful accident, when she was younger, caused her to break them. They were removed to avoid infection or any more damage, which caused her a lot of problems as she grew older. Mockery, of course, being one of the key things.
The tear on her right wing happened from a repair. She was in flight and snagged on a branch when on the tail of a target, and when she attempted to stitch it she only ended up stretching the small rip. Hide, of course, was no help, and tugged it more (Which meant Taska hit him over the head in frustration) but because the material is so fine and rare, she hasn't bothered to patch it.

Her eyes were covered with goggles, eyes reading the data that scrolled passed the screen displayed only to those who wore them. Where is it?! She thought to herself, tail lashing out in irritation. This was taking far too long. Encrypted files, complicated logarithms and coded phrases she had to dissect and put back together. And then...
... Bleep!
An array of colorful words rippled from her mouth as the screen went black, tearing off her goggles to find Hide tumbled over, paws caught in the wires that connected the goggles to the generator. Anger wouldn't be the correct word to describe what she was feeling right now. No, it far surpassed anger.
Hide! she hissed, daring enough to bare her fangs and exhale black smoke. He twisted to escape the grasp of the chords that held him captive, eyes widening as she clamped her jaws down onto his tail. It was quite comical to see such a petite female striking fear into such a large male dragon. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry! He whined, kicking away her damaging jaws before hopping up and narrowly escaping another snap of her jaws.



Requests:
Not taking any.
Trades:
1. --
2. --
3. --
4. --
5. --
One: Be polite when asking-- I don't have the patients for rude people.
Two: I most likely won't be taking requests. Unless I make a board or if you're part of the guild. The reason is because I'm coloring each one by hand and I try my /best/ to pay attention to detail, so it takes me about an hour each.
Three: You MUST have a reference picture. No ref= no adoptable.
Four: I will NOT remove or change the wings. There are to make your draik like Taaska's species before she lost her wings. Deal with it :3
Five: Request wise; I don't want no ten tailed missing limbs cat eared beast. xD Nor trades; to be honest. Most tails I'll do will be three-- unless your trade is astounding or I love your design. NO missing limbs, and no extras unless I know and love you. (Which I doubt).
Six: The title of your neomail should be 'Taska' because... I'm unoriginal.
Seven: I have the right to refuse you. I'd like an equal trade. (: Or I could just be in a foul mood. It happens.
To get an adoptable:
Name of Draik/Krawk: (FULL name)
Link to ref: (YES if you read the rules you'd know you need one.)
Trade? If so-- link me to yours.


Green.

Red.

Yellow.


Gold winners:
Phe~! (Mine hahaha)
Silver winners:
- None -
Bronze winners:
- None -
Be sure to mail Punkkitten468 aka Kat or Manni (Call me Punkkitten468 or any form of this and I'll delete your neomail). Your neomail should include your name, which trophy you're applying for, and the link to your page. Note that your application will not be eligible. On the subject line you should put something along the lines of 'Taska award' or 'Cherry tree pls?'. Below are what I'm looking for per trophy.
Bronze:
For Bronze you'll need:
- A petpage at least fifty percent done.
- A layout, can be premade.
- At least two pieces of art; either makeables you've filled out, adoptables you've collected or your own personal art. (Note that this means you've followed all of Neopet's rules and the owners of the makeable/adopt)
- Either an outline or beginning of the story is written. Grammar mistakes and spelling are allowed, but not too many.
- Your pet must have a custom design.
Silver:
For Silver you'll need:
- A petpage at least eighty percent done.
^ This includes a finished, coded-by-you or a friend layout. No premades. Story is mostly finished, friendships/enemies have been made, links have been exchanged, and the layout looks good. What I mean is the background isn't lime green without a text box and the font is insanely tiny in vivid pink.
- At least ten pieces of art; either makeables you've filled out, adoptables you've collected or your own personal art. (Note that this means you've followed all of Neopet's rules and the owners of the makeable/adopt)
- A good background written that engages the reader, and a few spelling and/or grammar mistakes.
- Your pet must have a custom design.
Gold:
This will be the HARDEST to achieve.
For Gold you'll need:
- A petpage that is pretty much done; other than maybe one/two things.
^ This includes a finished, coded-by-you or a friend layout. No premades. Story is mostly finished, friendships/enemies have been made, links have been exchanged, and the layout looks good. What I mean is the background isn't lime green without a text box and the font is insanely tiny in vivid pink. The petpage must look like a petpage, not a lazy slab of CSS and artwork slapped on a page.
- At least ten pieces of art; either makeables you've filled out, adoptables you've collected or your own personal art. (Note that this means you've followed all of Neopet's rules and the owners of the makeable/adopt)
- A good background written that engages the reader, with little to no spelling and/or grammar mistakes. If I get bored reading your story, you will not be awarded gold
- Your pet must have a custom design.
Extras:
* Your own adopt set.
* Something different about your page.
* Five+ pieces of your own art.
* Original characters. Video game inspired is fine, but no Mary Sue/John Doe characters will be awarded a reward.
* Originality, period. Something extra, out of the flow for a petpage.
* A finished pet look-up. :3
