MALE SUBMISSIONS:

GAIA USERNAME:The Noob Basher
MALE OR FEMALE ENTREE: Male
THEME FOR FROZEN MONARCHS: Embodiment of winter
OUTFIT BACK STORY:Shin was an angel cast from heaven into a drow body for crimes he commited, now he's trying to find his way back by trying to become the embodiment of the winter season

FEMALE SUBMISSIONS:

GAIA USERNAME: Evil A
MALE OR FEMALE ENTREE Female
THEME FOR FROZEN MONARCHS Ice Gunmage of the North
OUTFIT BACK STORY: She was once just a normal gunmage but finding her unit wiped out in a northern expedition left her alone in an environment too harsh for survival until one decides to infuse the cold, cold night into their very being... now she is the Ice Gunmage of the North.

GAIA USERNAME: Queen_Rini
MALE OR FEMALE ENTREE Female
THEME FOR FROZEN MONARCHS Queen of Turquoise
OUTFIT BACK STORY: Masura became the Queen of Turquoise by being chosen by the stone itself. She was born in December. The stone was given to her as a birthday present when she was 18 years old. She had not seen the stone before in her life. When she held the stone it lit up with such light that no one could see for a few moments. On this day Masura was named Queen of Turquoise.

GAIA USERNAME: Elyralith
MALE OR FEMALE ENTREE Female!
THEME FOR FROZEN MONARCHS Winter Princess
OUTFIT BACK STORY:
Meet Princess Blue from that one country where it was always cold.
One day, she got fed up of all the pink she had to wear, so she ran away from her castle, in search of a better outfit!
She traveled across treacherous paths and icy mountains, but all she saw was the pure white snow and the dreary grey sky.

Princess Blue ended a cold, wet, and sick mess.

In the end, she gave up and went back to the castle.

While she was gone, the castle had a makeover for the new princess (Blue's younger sister), names Princess Pink!

Needless to say, everything was the color blue.
One day, Princess pink got fed up of all the blue she had to wear, so she ran away from her castle, in search of a better outfit!


This cycle continues forever and ever, as no Princess was ever satisfied with what they had.

GAIA USERNAME: whalewatcher
MALE OR FEMALE ENTREE: female
THEME FOR FROZEN MONARCHS:Winter Walk
OUTFIT BACK STORY: One day, this lonely girl decided she wanted to go out into the woods to enjoy the winter snow. As she walked, she happened upon a snowbird. This snowbird knew that the girl was lonely and decided on being the girl's friend. The snowbird sat in the girl's hand as she talked to it while they went further into the woods. They came across a Christmas Tree outside of a cabin, something the little less lonely girl has never seen before. The old man who ran it, was named Kris Kringle. As she gazed in awe at his decorated tree outside, his cat decided that she was a good person and became friends with her. As she gazed on the tree, she noticed a present, addressed to her. The now not-so-lonely girl couldn't wait for Christmas to see what was inside the gift.

MALE OR FEMALE ENTREE Female
THEME FOR WINTER WRAP UP Queen of the Winter Winds
OUTFIT BACK STORY:Do you know how Santa can make it around the World in just one night. The magic of Christmas is one reason but the other is that he is helped by the Queen of the Winter Winds. She is a Fairy that sends a calm strong wind to help him with his rounds. She is true as the fresh fallen snow on Christmas night. Sometimes she even goes with Santa. That is why you never hear him land on your roof at night.

MALE OR FEMALE ENTREEfemale
THEME FOR WINTER WRAP UPwrap up and block the chill
OUTFIT BACK STORY: From the time I was born, both my parents nick named me Amanda because thats my name and panda because I have always loved them. My father told me that when I was born my skin had a tint of white in it and all that was noticeable was my pitch black hair like a panda. Little does he know, pandas are actually born with no hair and have to grow it out lmao. Till this day I have not told him. Shhhh. Well hence the inspiration for my current avi. I made it for the winter because she is all bundled up but it helps me to keep a piece of my childhood life and history with me while I am on gaia which is my second home <3

Angelic Sash

Shall be awarded to the angel who participated, helped, made friends & all around decent Gaian.
The behavior that NEEDS to be encouraged & passed on.
ONE WINNER ONLY!
This will be based on the input of participants here as to whom they deem deserving.
I do have the overall decision.
If there is a tie, the 2nd in line shall receive the final Monthly Collectible Letter for June 2013

As for angels who assisted in my past events I feel that the Angelic Scarf is going to be awarded to The Noob Basher.

There was a tie in my event in 2011 and two were deserving, one won, and I feel I finally have a way to have him earn his too. :3
So, this is the only item already claimed.
Should surprise him. heart
