    Colorist ApplicationsUser Image






    Applicant name: Draconicfeline
    Who referred you (if any): NA
    How active are you on Gaia: I have no idea. A blatant underestimate would be... 4-7 hours a week? * flail * I dont know!
    Previous work experience in the B/C:
    HDM: Colorist and, Later, owner
    Eon: Owner
    Aeterr: Owner
    Sengi: Owner
    Station (still in interest thread): Co owner
    (And in any shop I own I also did art, certs, and colorings)
    Reasons for leaving:
    HDM died. I 'evolved' Eon to Aeterr, it died, and then became Station (which I am working on now). Sengi crashed because I bit off more than I could chew with 6 way breedings. Bad idea >.>
    Examples of pets you have edited:
    All from station, since they are the most recent and I am proud of them :3
    The lines were done by Taki-Di

    Shoi: Labcoat, Earrings, armband, eye screen Sammy: Espeon tail, ALL of his jewelery missing no 9: Horns, Fangs, his unopenable left eye, all of his jewlery

    Examples of pets you have colored:
    XxX
    Link to your art gallery: X
    Why do you want to work at Mearhdon?:
    I... dont know. Something about it seems appealing and within my abilities. Maybe its the pretty horsies?
    Maybe its because my brain is already cooking up vague ideas for patterns?
    References: Considering I owned each shop... But the previous owner of HDM, Ryunero, and my co-owner and long-term customer Taki-Di could give you references I guess?

    Thread/RP Manager ApplicationsUser Image






    Applicant Name: Draconicfeline
    Position Applying for: RP manager
    How active are you on Gaia: Like I said, Pretty often but I have no idea
    Previous work experience in the B/C: See above (colorist) form.
    I also managed rp for the shops, moreso for Eon than for HDM. Sengi had little to speak of.
    Station will have lots of fun rp and events which Taki and I will manage.
    Reasons for leaving: See above (colorist) form. Dead or upgraded.
    References:
    Like I said. I'm mostly self employed.
    Why do you want to work at Mearhdon?: Like I said. Something about it caught my eye.
    Comments?:




    Applicant Name: Kyriana Razian
    Position Applying for: Thread Manager
    How active are you on Gaia: At least 18 hrs a week normally 35+
    Previous work experience in the B/C: None
    Reasons for leaving: None
    References: None
    Why do you want to work at Mearhdon?: I love the shop and the people in it. I just want to help things run smoothly.
    Comments?: This would be the first shop I'd work if you'd hire me, and if I don't pull my weight feel free to replace me. I just want a chance.



    Applicant Name: XBlind-DarknessX
    Position Applying for: RP Manager
    How active are you on Gaia: Probably around four a day or so, depending.
    Previous work experience in the B/C: I have none, everyone has to start somewhere though right?
    Reasons for leaving: N/A
    References: None
    Why do you want to work at Mearhdon?: I have seen this shop around a lot, and finally became curious enough to enter into it and stalk it a little bit. Upon seeing that it is a medieval based shop I nearly spazzed out. My favorite genre to read is fantasy, which as I am sure you all well know, is normally based in a medieval setting. I am a great admirer of Renaissance fairs, Shakespearian festivals and the like. When looking it over it just made me realize that this is one place I would love to work at and likely fit into very well. The art is amazing and whenever I peek at the thread everyone seems very kind.
    Comments?:
    I adore rping and reading, two of my favorite hobbies rolled into one. As for being creative in order to help with rp prompts and adding to the main story of the shop I think I could definitely be a benefit in that field. I love working with others and coming up with something absolutely amazing together! I have AIM so I am pretty easy to get a hold of. Thank you very much for your time and consideration!
