Under Renovation, yo!
This thread is presently being picked at, cleaned up, and trimmed, to be re-established at a later point. 'Til then, most of this content is to be considered out of date, as it's a lil' overwhelming, and I'd like to minimize public eye-strain epidemics until we've finished fixing things up.
In the meantime, we're also in need of a new artist, as our old one was... de-interwebz'd. So 'til then, we search. Feel free to PM Twelve Yb TnuoC if you have any questions, comments, concerns, or, if for some unfathomable reason, you're interested in Staff'ing for us and our ressurection in one manner or other.
We love feedback. <3 Feed us, Seymour~ D8

In this subforum, it's all the same. Either you find animal-based pets, human-based pets, or some combination. The only thing that changes is the story that justifies their appearance.
I'd like to think that these aren't so much "pets", as they are people in their own right, for you to share a story with. After all, that's what life is all about, isn't it? Sharing stories, with everyone you meet. Except this time, let's make something truly great of it.
Are you ready to meet The Color of You?

Are you ready to meet The Color of You?








Mountains of rock, red as blood, and seas the deep, deep blue that is of the blanket of space above our heads, space which glitters with the white and gold of the minerals lying beneath the black, sandy deserts. Plains of greens and lily whites, rolling past the winding rivers, marked by a blue that can only be found beyond these waters, in the omnipotent eyes of the flowers that cling with stringy vines, to the dulled brown walls, of the wood and steel cities, where the people make their homes.
It is a world populated by a cornucopia of creatures. The scavenging crow, which seeks the crops, that the loyal hound is driven to protect. The lazy cat, who neglects the wiles she holds, that only her friend the fox can match. The fatal locust, who follows after the ruining, but majestic, dragon, and the lowly squirrel, whose home is finally returned, after the renewal of nature that the great phoenix commands. A simple goldfish, pure of heart, who watches as the unicorn graces with presence and gift, the youngest of the mermaids, from within the home of the fish's keeper, guardian of humble sheep and prideful bovine alike.
And like any other world, it is full of myths, from the valiant and noble hero, who rescues the helpless but strangely wise princess, to the gods themselves, who bring either, fire, war, love, or wind to the people. Tales of hungry wolves, and mystic spell-weavers. Of cursed maidens, with voices like silk, and even words that speak of ill-begotten thieves, and murderers, or dull but viscous trolls. Of kings, or angels, or saints. Of the kindred, who feast on the blood of mortals, or their eternal enemies, the lycanthrope, wolves who assume the form of men, or men who assume the form of wolves. Perhaps a demon, who wraps lies like chains around hapless mortals, and pulls them into his hellish home, away from the light of grace. Perhaps even, the old woman at the door, who warns, without being heeded, of the danger to come, or the strange creation that, alive, seeks it's own mortality..?
These are the aspects, that build the world of Delikah. And, though Delikah's people have strayed from their roots, embracing technology, and war, order and logic, these people are still made of three simple aspects. Color, Creature, and Creation. A hue, an animal, and a fantasy.








The Color of You does not distribute "pets" so simple, that they can be summarized in a single post, nor does it distribute "pets" so complex, one can never seem to get immersed in the world they claim to live in. Quite the contrary, The Color of You does not distribute "pets" at all, but instead, people.
Now, these people may not be real, and they may not be quite like you, or quite like your best friend. Perhaps you can't relate them to your enemy, or your cat, or your mother, or your grade school teacher. But they are people. And, whether or not you decide to put yourself in their world, and use the stunningly crucial task of role playing to truly feel their lives, they will remain people, to someone. Perhaps their artist, or the one who conceived them. Maybe, even, some Gaian you've never heard of, or never will, who stumbles across their picture, and feels a story, or character, gain life from that picture. But the thing is, no matter who feels them most real, they will belong to You.
In practice, that simply means you have full liberty, (You, the Artist, and the shop owner T-Chan), to distribute the certed "pet" wherever you please, as long as you do not claim to have created it purely on your own. But in actuality, that means that some being, somewhere, owes you a great debt. After all, if you did not accept ownership of this simple piece of art, they could never grow as a soul.
The Color of You, as an ambiguous concept of a shop, of a theory, of a world, is built partially on the fundamental belief that every idea in this world, no matter how unbelievable, is a reality elsewhere. If that idea is washed away by doubts and seemingly more important matters, then how can it truly exist? Hence, as you purchase this simple piece of art, and the right, without requirement, to mold their being to your own whims, you are creating the opportunity for something amazing to happen.
But do not take it from us; why don't you give it a shot?

Important Announcement!::
OwO Holy She-Monkeys, Bat-man! I got something DONE! Wow! ^^;; After dying for a lil' while, there's information in the Guild's Lore and Culture subforum, on Oroka, and some VERY basic basics on the other countries. <3 Be sure to read that too, but--! Te Roleplaying subforum should be ready! =D Yaaaay~! About damn time!
^^;; Still looking for talented artists for our Guest artist auction (1/4 pets done so far, though I wouldn't object to selling more than four in it), and I'm open to apps for a Graphic artist too, though m'talking with one right now. <3 It'd help if graphically, you could match close to Martian's style (the graphics we have now), and I've got a MAP I'd like to have colored. I can send you the über huge transparency .png if you'd like, without the country names necessarily...
Graphic artists-- I'mma need more than just a set of banners and you're done. I'd be coming back to you again and again. Being able to do certs is optional.
Guest Artists-- You don't necessarily have to match Masa-Kun's flowy, soft, water-color-esque drawing style, but a unique look (well, okay, kinda unique-ish..? o3o;; ), and good lines/coloring is a MUST. Talented is a matter of opinion, however, so it's always better to ask me. I can give you detailed descriptions, or you can be imaginative. <3 Cool clothes drawing is a MUST. Fantasy elements (wings, horns, etc), cosplay drawing skills, and cool effects (water, magic circles, glowing-ness) are all pluses. I like anime-ish style, but I don't want a cut-and-paste design for it.
Owners-- D< ROLE PLAY!! NOW!!! ;;-;; Sorry I took so long, loves...
Affiliation-- PM "Purest White" with the title "tCoY Affiliation", and the link code, and I'll get back to you asap. Try and read teh afflaites notes in the shop thread first, though. <3; I reserve the right to deny affiliation with anyone, as I see fit. And I wouldn't mind linking to non-BC shops. Jus' lemme know if your thread closes, kay?
FAQ-ish post, and getting involved posts finally done!
Community trumps GaiaGold any day! Long live tCoY, and her beloved community of lovers!
