Mwahahahahahaha…. It is my favorite month… THE SPOOKY MONTH!! Since Halloween is my favorite holiday by far, why not host a Dta? Rules: -no stealing, tracing, AI, gacha, picrew, etc. -no guilt tripping!! (You are allowed to say stuff like “I really don’t like the art” or “Im not that proud of this” but saying stuff like “Im never going to win…” or anything trying to make me give you the character out of pity is never allowed) -be nice please!! -no homophobia, racism, sexism, ableism, etc. that stuff is gross and absolutely unacceptable and will get you immediately disqualified and blacklisted -dont get mad if you don’t win! -do not ask “can I enter?”. Everyone (who isn’t blacklisted ofc) can enter, asking just floods my inbox. -quality over quantity. Not necessarily a rule but making one really good entry will give you a better chance at winning than a bunch of tiny entries. -also not necessary but please add lore!! I enjoy reading it and it increases your chances of winning :3 -the due date is currently November 7th, but extensions will be available! -DO NOT have fun. No fun allowed/jjjjj -feel free to change the design a bit, just not too much! -traditional is allowed! Before I go onto the designs, I’d just like to let you know that you don’t have to be “good at art” to enter!! We’re all learning, and practice is always good!! Designs: Teke-teke “Teke… teke…” Notes: I was trying to make something a bit spooky but she just ended up looking silly lol. I still really like her. Her tail kinda resembles a train and has glowing parts, and unlike the story she is missing her arms rather than legs. Idk how she’d use the scythe though. Be creative I guess. Mongolian death worm on a string “Bro I have literally no quotes for this guy” Notes: the eyes have teeth around them, and Im assuming the spikes would be made of the same material as the teeth. They are probably slimy and have a worm-like texture, but you can choose whatever you want. Mimic not-deer “Thats not a deer” notes: tbh the colors are pretty cool, I like them quite a bit. They have a forked tongue and are unnaturally tall. Thats really all I have to say. Smile dog “Spread the word” Notes: yes, he’s missing an eye. Hes got a camera. Idk what else to say about this one. Weirdcore wendigo “It’s been watching” Tbh i truly love this guy. If no ones entering for them im keeping them. They have eyes floating around them, and they have a bow around their neck. Their tail is probably made of ribbon or something. They have a skull covering their face. About the urban legends: Teke-teke: This is a Japanese urban legend about a girl who fell on a railway and got her legs chopped off. The paramedics ignored her, and she died a slow and painful death. It’s said that the front half of her body haunts rail stations or the town she died in. She is said to kill people with a scythe by splitting them in half so they can suffer the same fate she did. Mongolian death worm: Basically just a very large worm that lives in the gobi desert. It’s said to be so poisonous that even touching it will kill you. Mimics: I don’t know too much about these, but I’m pretty sure they’re malicious spirits that mimic the appearance and voice of loved ones to lure in prey. Not-deer: Basically just deer with extra features (horns, legs, eyes, etc.) that have been caught on trail cameras. They often act very strange and are occasionally seen walking on 2 legs. Smile dog: If you were on the internet between 2010 to 2020 you probably remember this one. It’s about this supposedly haunted picture of a dog, and it’s said that just looking at it will drive you crazy. The story usually says that people receive a weird letter in the mail, and upon opening it they find a Polaroid picture of a husky with an unnatural smile with the words “spread the word” written on it. Wendigo: Wendigos are from Native American folklore. It’s said that if someone either becomes too greedy or resorts to cannibalism they will transform into a wendigo. It’s said that no matter how much they eat they are still hungry and appear to be almost skeletal. The songs have literally nothing to do with these guys lol, I just thought they sounded nice If you aren’t interested in any of these guys, maybe try my other adopts!
