Description Okay I'm 100% sure I'll need to add to this, please ask about or remind me of anything I asked you to change but didn't add here ;D;

RULE OF THUMB: The ONLY thing that can grow out of a Chime's body is fur!

Plantmatter growing out of their bodies isn't allowed
Crystals or shards of rock growing out of their bodies isn't allowed
Extra limbs- which means wings, extra legs, etc, aren't allowed
"Magical elements", like glowing wisps or fairy dust or whatever else, isn't allowed*
Tails that would require underlying bones (lizard tails, dog tails, cat tails, lion tails, tiger tails, etc) aren't allowed**
Their ears are also entirely fluff- think of them as more like antennae then like ears! They can be any style of hair as well, but must stick up at least partially!

I think that's all I have for now ;0; remind me if I'm missing anything!

* Magical elements may be allowed in the future, and considered "rare". I'm not 100% on this, though, so unless otherwise specified, it's 100% unallowed ;;
** If your entry has been accepted but has a dog/cat tail that would require bone structure, it's fine, I'm not going to retroactively reject your entry! HOWEVER: If you end up keeping your chime from the contest,Β  please make sure to change the tail appropriately in the future ;;

Lucky Chimes are a closed species! but until August 31st there's a MYO Contest going on, check it out if you'd like!

These are adorable! Also, I would like to ask, would it be okay if I made a Pony Species of this? Like Lucky Chime Ponies.
Of course you would be the founder. Like Could I make the group and adoptables (Closed group) And then Credit you
for it is a base upon this species? It's your choice though, but they would be incredible! ^w^

thank you!! but ohhh gosh please, no, haha ;3; I would be highly uncomfortable with something like that! I very much appreciate you asking, but I get really bummed out when things are intentionally based on my stuff ><;Β

Hey Burr! Would you be okay with scale-like markings? Pigment that wouldn't actually grow out of the body? :0Β

Would necklaces with crystals that glow on their own be accepted? the magic has nothing to do with the chime in any way, its just a natural glow from the crystals only, no chime magic in it.

burrdog In reply to Rinworks [2014-08-26 03:04:26 +0000 UTC]

hmm-- where would they get the crystal?

Rinworks In reply to burrdog [2014-08-26 17:30:10 +0000 UTC]

a gift from the person they've bonded with /inside a cave [unless the second cave option is too outlandish, but its more likely a gift from their bonded friend]

burrdog In reply to Rinworks [2014-08-26 18:27:55 +0000 UTC]

I see, I see! Admittedly I'm not very fond of the idea mostly because I'm getting quite a few entries that are pushing the limits of what is/isn't allowed ;; let me say that with current canon I don't think there's anything I could say and that would technically be allowed? But Iiii wouldn't really prefer it ;0; I wouldn't reject the entry based on that though!

Alrighty! Just curious in case i might end up adding something like that, I'm prone to adding necklaces to characters [whom doesn't love jewelry]Β

On my entry the vine is actually growing from the flower tucked into the base of it's tail, that's fine right?

Are floating stars around it count as magical elements?? ; > ;

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

burrdog In reply to Hue4Huey [2014-08-25 00:33:07 +0000 UTC]

unfortunately so ;3; it would take just a change in the canon you've written? like, rather than removing them from the image, if you'd just consider them a part of the background/unrelated
that'd be a way to avoid actually editing the image but it just wouldn't be something that could work with a chime ;3; they're just lucky little sprites whose visible magic is pretty much entirely contained in their head ~3~;

Hue4Huey In reply to burrdog [2014-08-25 01:02:40 +0000 UTC]

oh okay thanks!! Can you check my description again?? ; v ; and what does the visible magic do?? > u <

burrdog In reply to Hue4Huey [2014-08-25 01:03:51 +0000 UTC]

That looks fine! And uh-- well, by visible magic I mean the magic that's actually seen on their design, and that would be their "eye", the white shape inside the eye hole is actually a reflection of the magic ball inside their head- the magic ball is the luck magic and life force of the chime ;v;

Oops, it is supposed to be a marking, I'm just a little tired and read the no flowers growing out of the body and had a moment where I confuse myself ;w;

Terribly sorry about that xDΒ

But what if they had a little pair of fake wings tied around their body..
that'd be so cute
