You know how this works, you get a theme, make an avatar, it closes, you get to find out what the prize is, voting starts, and then voting closes, and a winner is selected.

This week's theme is Elements. That could be, the four basic ones of magic, actual elements from the periodic table, or some of the more obscure elements of magic.

This is a rare contest where a scientist would fit right in next to a wizard.

Uh...... I mean, if we go with science you can break a cat down into something that's not a cat. and, most forms of magic isn't, cat powered. But, who am I to say?

If you want to make the cat element a thing, say so and I'll add it.

Sure. I kind of figure that this is about having fun and if people get a chuckle out of it then that's my real mission here. That and added participants. 3nodding

You know, Fungi, Cats, Fantasy, and Greed were not the elements I had in mind. But you know what? I ain't even mad. We have some real creative ideas on what is considered an element, or what could be considered an element given the right circumstances.

Originally I planned on working with the type of elements you listed (i.e. water, earth, etc.) but once I started playing around with the items I have, none of my creations were turning out to be something I was satisfied with. Or.... they ended up looking similar to my past contest entries. sweatdrop

In the end, I created something that didn't fall into the original idea concepts you listed. However, in a way, my entry still falls into the "element" theme you established. I went with a Literary Element direction with a focus on Fantasy... or simply "Element of Fantasy". whee

"A literary element is an inherent constituent of all works of narrative fiction—a necessary feature of verbal storytelling that could be found in any written or spoken narrative."

"Magic is the most basic element of fantasy, whether it's Harry Potter waving his wand or the Cheshire Cat's ability to disappear." - X

I was going to try to make an "element of surprise" avatar, but realized I didn't have enough ninja-y items to fulfill it. So I'm gonna sit out of the competition this week. sweatdrop

Besides, I expect Okami to come in at the last minute and kill the contest with one of her many amazing fire elemental avatars anyway. razz

That was something I considered doing too but none of my items would've made it happen, lol. xd
