{ Intro }
I would like to make it clear that Krystal did not ask for an elaborate application; I just feel that Cofhin deserves one :)
If given the opportunity to adopt Cofhin, I have plans to change his gender. I hope it isn't a problem that I already designed him as a her.
Krystal, thank you for the opportunity to apply for Cofhin. You probably have many applications to read and look over, so I hope you find mine to be enjoyable!

{ A Fresh Start }
HELP WANTED! the giant, black sign exclaimed from the window of the Faerieland Employment Agency. LOOKING FOR EXPERIENCED Pâtissier FOR HEAD POSITION AT "PIRKU'S PIES" IN THE HAUNTED WOODS. SHOPPE NOT WORKING OUT AS EXPECTED... WILL EVEN NAME IT AFTER YOU!
Cofhin's ears perked up, and she yipped with excitement. "Oh my gosh, oh my gosh, oh my gosh!" she exclaimed, and rushed into the office. The small Wocky narrowly avoided colliding with a rather plump Skeith who was making his leave and plopped herself into a rickety plastic chair in front of the main employment desk. She folded her paws in her lap, bounced her knobby knees, and waited for the familiar pink Scorchio to arrive.
Ah, it's you again, Cofhin..." the Scorchio sighed as he spotted the excited Wocky. He hastily took his seat opposite her and cocked an eyebrow. "Let me guess, fired again?"
The girl scowled and stuck her tongue out at the agent. "Noooo, Barty, not fired... technically. I told you farming would be no good; my hair kept melting! Do you know how much time it takes to get this" she pointed at her swirly coiffure "to stay this way?"
Barty snorted and shook his head. "You know, Cofhin, you've been at this for what... 3 years now?" The Scorchio turned and started rummaging through his large filing cabinet before finally emerging with an "Aha!" and a very large manila envelope. "And you still haven't found your, quote-unquote, niche."
Oh, you make it out to be so horrible, Barty! But you know, I think I may have found what I've been waiting for," Cofhin smiled and turned to point at the large sign at the front of the office.
Barty's eyes widened, and he dropped the folder, rejection papers flying all over the large desk. "No... no no no!" he exclaimed, waving his arms. "The Haunted Woods?! You're from Faerieland, dear. I don't quite think you could make it over there. It's so... haunted."
Cofhin ignored the flustered Scorchio and closed her eyes with a smile. "Can you just imagine it, Barty? Cofhin... Pâtissier. Baking sweet, delicious treats, ringing up customers, creating new recipes! And and and, to have a shoppe named after me?! Oh, it's a dream come true."
Oh, sit back down!" the Scorchio huffed, grabbing the girl's paw and pulling her back into reality. "Have you even studied the culinary arts? Do you know what marzipan is?"
Cofhin knit her eyebrows together in concentration. "Well, no... but!" she exclaimed before Barty could interrupt her, "It's been 3 years, as you said, and in all this time, I haven't found something that has piqued my interests until now! C... could you just give me a chance?" she asked, giving the exasperated Scorchio her best "Baby Gelert" eyes.
The clock sitting on the desk ticked loudly for the long minute the girl held her pleading look before it seemed to shrill with excitement as the Scorchio finally agreed. "But if this doesn't work out, you're going back to the Rock Quarry in Altador!"
Cofhin slammed her paws down onto the desk, scattering the red-inked rejection letters even further and grinned. "I won't let you down!"
{ Cofhin }
Name: Cofhin
Nickname(s): Coco, Cofhi
Gender: Female
Age: 23
Species: Wocky
Colour: Chocolate
Occupation: Recluse/Potential bakery owner
Personality: Hopeful and never giving up on her dreams, she pushes through any obstacle with grace and a little humor. She's incredibly silly with a big heart and smile. Can be clumsy at times (mostly all the time), but she laughs off her mistakes with charm and a shrug.
{ Puppup }
Cofhin's squishy little Doglefox who goes almost everywhere with her. Always seems to be getting into some mischief at Cofhin and Pirku's expense. Literally. You know how many Neopoints fresh Spyder legs cost?
{ About Me }
Hello! My name's Celeste, and I'm a 23 year old gal. I work pretty much every day of the week, but when I get home or have the occasional day off, I love spending time here on Neo customizing my pets, creating different characters, and lurking on the Pound Chat. I've been playing on Neopets since 2002 when my friend introduced me to the site (my first pet was a green Kau, haha!), but I took a very long hiatus until 2006. Sometimes I'll still take a break when things get stressful in "real life", but even then, I still log in to do my dailies and play with my pets. I always have my pets checked into the Neolodge just in case I'm not able to log in for a couple days.
One of my main passions in life is character design and creation. When I see a beautifully colored pet with an equally as wonderful name, I quickly jump into designing their character and especially their look; I've wanted to be a fashion designer for YEARS. Neo has also taught me about coding and HTML. I edited this premade layout (see credit in links), but I used to make userlookups and petpages from scratch.
All of my pets are involved in my Usul Reseries plot at some point, even though I'm still fleshing out the details. :)
{ Goals }
-Enter each pet into the BC
-Complete each pet's page and final character design
-Finally start writing Reserie's plot

{ The Characters }
{ vxcutexv }
Ordered from left to right
- Pirku: The current owner of Pirku's Pies, a shabby bakery in the Haunted Woods. Cofhin stumbles across her ad at the Faerieland Employment Agency and discovers her true calling.
- Reserie: A spunky, little Usul who hails from the Haunted Woods. One day, she finds a wand, meets the Faerie Queen, and sets out on the adventure of her life with her best friend Asiden.
- Thysile: A daring Kacheek with a love for botany. Studies at Edna's Academy in the Haunted Woods.

Ordered from left to right
- Jonett: Hailing from Terror Mountain, this Ice Usul is anything but hot-headed. She tinkers in her shop all day, crafting weapons for experienced Battledomers, and loves to relax in the evening with a Brucicle from the Super Happy Icy Fun Snow Shop.
- Lunare: The Queen of the Stars. Lunare lives in the heavens, crafting clouds and stars with her magic scepter. She created the wand that Reserie uses.
- Asiden: Reserie's best friend and fellow recluse. The two study at Edna's Academy, although they have no idea what they want to do after they graduate. Asiden studies magic and rides a broom (with shaky skills). A "perfect hair" spell gone wrong changed Reserie's colour to zombie.
{ Plans for Cofhin }
- Begin writing her on-going story
- Create more character/outfit designs for her
- Enter her into the BC weekly
- Complete full customization
{ A Parting Message }
Whew, if you're still here, then thank you so much for reading my application! I hope this page has helped express my desire to adopt Cofhin and develop her character. I can give you my word that if I am given the chance to be her new owner, I will NEVER put her up for adoption or up for trade.
I would once again like to thank you for the opportunity to apply for this wonderful Wocky, and I hope to hear from you soon!
