Guardian Name: Moirai Chosen Name: Gabriel Blithe Spooky Poem: a creeping hand, a crushing strength to wander here the calm forsake
no scream to hear no air to breathe a darkness, still and death perceive

However, since so much effort was put into these entries, and since I'm, well, kinda loaded, I wanted to do something for some others that entered, so I contacted Chrystali & Phoenix Kiss and asked if I could buy up some semi-customs as some runner up prizes! They were down, so, the following people should PM me the information required for a semi-custom non-growing Guardian.
Quote:
You may pick one simple marking/marking location and up to three colors for a semi-custom (the color of the markings and eyes, if specified, count toward the limit)
If you'd rather a familiar for a Hedgewitch, instead of a Guardian, let me know that too, maybe I can work that out with the colorists, but I have to ask. (:

Guardian Name: Erebus Chosen Name: Ridley Eloise Wescott Spooky Poem: death comes eventually that much is true death comes to claim one of what had been two
and there is mourning and grief that much i admit but who would i be if alone i let you sit
my flesh will rot in a grave so shallow and my bones -- oh my bones will remain to pull tug tow
crawling and reaching grasping fingers rise push through dirt circle your wrist to claim my prize
we were friends my dear it twines us together a tight cord invisible tether
and mere death shan't end that i'll drag us ever further down my friend -- mine -- by my side forever and ever... don't frown, don't make a sound
it's time to go down down down

Guardian Name: Enki (meaning lord of the underworld) Chosen Name: Giselle Marion Spooky Poem:
Let the cold curl In smoky slivers Around your legs And pull you in.
Hollow howls and Whispering whimpers Come upon A panicked mind
And it gasps in fading night You are mine... You are mine.
Shredded, tattered flesh, torn for exposure, so tender and so rare snapped, splintered bone, sprinkled and jutted without rhyme or reason spilled, spoiled blood, marinating freely, clinging to its corpse it stains the teeth and maw of its releaser
not a voice of reason, nor a whisper of opposition give way the echo only of crunching, feasting, devouring without restraint there is no mercy to be had, malice intent pure and devoted somewhere there will be sorrow, but delayed and soon long forgotten prevention is ones greatest ally, awareness in ones home
one beat stops to make the other continue, an endless tragedy a balance that must go on again and again, a cycle no deities can stop acrid eyes of vile yellow and eerie crimson pierce through the thickness of night guarded safely under its cloak, where weaker are open game there are no rules, the hunt never ceases take a break and you shall most certainly be defeated breathe once, but hold it fast, move fast but make not a stir all are prey, and few are predator, with little to get in their way cease and desist does not exist, and will pay you quite a fortune
it's only fair, it's just a game you play it everyday you have no horse to win this race, only fear to try and carry you away.

Guardian Name: Ouroboros Meaning: The name of the serpentine tail eater who represents the eternal renewal from life to death and back again. Chosen Name: Clarence St. James Spooky Poem:
Woodlands dark and candle low Listen as the harsh winds blow Away the blooming of the light Stealing color from your sight.
But remember when you used to know The cold, cold kiss of winter’s snow. Now beneath the stark black sky You sit and let your body lie.
And, in addition, some super-duper runner up prizes, the following people have won simple Companion Pet semi-customs, to be colored by Chrystali or Phoenix Kiss! Please PM me the info and I'll pass it along to get you some awesome arts!

Please also tell me what sort of companion pet you'd like -- excluding fairy wrens, since those are event-specific. <3
Mother May I the child cried Confusion lingered as he stepped inside come closer now called out the woman within her home The sun has gone to sleep she said come hear tell of dark instead. and turning listless in depth of dreams the boy has come undone it seems and from the chalice deep he drinks a bitter brew for sleeping souls all for the promice to make him whole Mother may I the child cries as she weaves for him a net of lies where goes the sun when hope is lost it is not found In mother's house.
Revealed to me from the candle's dim light The motionless figure of a dying knight A breath of frost dancing from broken white lips A hollow gaze darker than an eternal eclipse
There are wolves, demons and shadows Terrible beasts and dangerous foes But this is a warning, my dear friend There are more enemies than you comprehend
The deadliest fiend is the one you never suspect And the one you're most likely to disrespect You will never see him, only his disguise Until you meet your grisly demise
There is a blade where there was once trust The blood in my mouth tasted like bitter rust The sting of the wound which killed me was mild Compared to the pain of the friend who smiled
Your neighbors, your doctor, your father, your son Not a single person is safe from the troubled one Blood is his vice; he'll do anything for more Take it from me, the corpse on the floor
I walked along the crooked path where silence reigned in every branch.
The shadows twisted the stars hid the creatures of the night refused to stir.
But I, in all my foolishness, refused to accept what the trees spoke in their silence.
Go back Before it is too late Go back.
But human nature prevailed.
The glowing orbs, red as blood, were the last I saw before the darkness swallowed me as well.
