Description

Shaula was a lovely Imsalani elf girl born to an unfortunate family of smugglers and ship-wreckers. She was having serious doubts about her family occupation, the more the older she became. That her father and uncles were abusive drunkards and her brothers were following the bad and painful example didn't make her any happier. Then one day she happened upon a huge man who had been brought to the shore by the last vestiges of his strength, a plank from a wrecked ship and a fortunate wave. He called himself Bog the Half-Elf.

Long story made short, this resulted with Shaula's family being imprisoned for shipwrecking - a serious offence, often dealt with capital punishment - Shaula getting pregnant and Bog disappearing to parts unknown one night, without even saying good-bye. All this in a part of Aiers that doesn't look too kindly upon unchaste women. Oops.

Should have pushed him back to the sea and only gone to the authorities after.

With the money her family had made with their fell trade - she hadn't led the authorities to all the caches - she founded Coastal Guard, a group of heroes and sell-swords who would hunt smugglers, ship-wreckers, bandits and other Evil People. Her ill-advised tryst resulted in twin children; Alura is the girl and the first-born and Thafi is the little brother.

Alura, who took after her father is height and the shape of her nose - much to her consternation - was trained by her mother to become the big hitter of her paramilitary group. Deep down Alura is a very gentle person, but she also hates to disappoint her mother and this has left her into a predicament. During her spare time she makes hand-made herbal ointments and her hobbies are pressing flowers and reading poetry. She is the strongest and most brutal fighter of the Coastal Guard and many find this discrepancy to be disconcerting to say the least. There are rumours that she isn't quite stable and might snap any moment, much to her sadness. She would just like to get along with people and make her mother happy both. She would also very much like to meet her father one day, though she isn't certain whether she wants to hug him or punch him to the face more. She can't rue her own existence, but the way he treated her poor mother!

For shame, Bog, for shame!

Thafi, while a little taller than her mother, mostly takes after his Sand Elf heritage. He is very gifted at mathematics, but to his mother's disappointment, his martial skills are rather lacking. Well, not really, but he isn't ashamed of purposefully performing poorly to avoid having to perform a duty he doesn't like. His few extra inches make him that much more handsome and he is a bit of a ladies man... Or he would like this to be so. The truth is that he is the nice guy who will finish the last. He is the boy fathers let accompany their daughters to the market because they can trust that he will take care of them, he is the best friend who will listen to a young maiden's woes and try to console her when her father doesn't understand her at all and all the men are horrible beasts - with the exception of the wonderfully kind Thafi, or course. About ninety percent of his friends consists of the members of the fairer sex and he doesn't know what he is doing wrong when he can't get a date. He even likes poetry and pressing flowers!

(All the girls think that it's a damn shame that all the good ones are taken or gay.)

Done for for her entry in the Bog and the Childrens of Bog Contest. Done as well as propaganda. Yay!

Bog is half human elf dwarf ogre ozcura giant demon werewolf dragonborn Centaur Loranor well, half something barbarian adventurer: He doesn't seem to know for sure his origin, and keep telling stories about it, and as well how great his adventures have been as an Adventurer of the Zannas Adventurer Guild. While he is sure he is the more awesome heroe of history, some of his companions *gasp* DARE to claim he his lying about his great adventures.

As he wandered across the world, he had sometimes more, and often less, luck with the ladies... and in the years, he have left as a lasting legacy of some of his adventures... well... the "Bog Spawn", the Children of the Great Hero...

The Contest
__________

For this contest, there are TWO possible themes: BOG and the CHILDREN OF BOG. In the first case, it must depict Bog being Bog -interprete that as you may under your own risk XD- OR a descendant of Bog: there, it can be one of the already known about in my gallery, or you can create your own. You can as well, mix both categories!

Aside of that, you basically have the freedom to do almost anything in your imagination, within he context of what happen in a world: the only limitation would be, that it can be identified as part of Aiers.

In such whide context, you can do as you want: draw some of your own characters interacting with them, draw a character of yours as a companion of Bog, to make them interacting with some of my own characters, to create your own -and your own Bog spawn!- draw or write stories of them, or their kingdoms and lands, or almost anything you want.

A bit more about the limitations:
- In case you want to use your own original character, you should adapt him/her to be part of Aiers, not a "dimensional or time traveler". Basically, consider like they where born and raised in Aiers.

- You can not use characters of movies, animation, games, published books, roleplay games, etc, unless you are the original creator. If you want to use for example, your original character from a game like WoW/Skyrim/anything else/ or from a fan art/fan fiction you have done or similar, you need to addapt it like in the previous case, like he/she was native of Aiers.

- if you want to do a parody of characters, or a style or genre, you can do so... but as long as it can be identified as related to the world I have being creating.

- If you are going to do an entry related to some of my "asimilated from dA multiverse" realms, like the amazonian kingdom of Helzig and Prima -KO-Corral - the dustlands of Brûm -fearydistress -, the schlobohmi orcs -ChibiNomad / TheMadCrow - and the sordcoopriya drows of caverst -sordcooper2 - the artificial, elven created pixies of IxisNyx , some characters of Achastia -Achast -, or more, from other deviants who have cooperated with the setting of the World-of-Aiers , you can do it, but state the original creators, and use them in the "adaptations" I have done. You can incorporate as well new "kingdoms" to Aiers, but please try to make them related to my world, so it can be identified as a part of them.

Attention! An entry can win more than one prize so they can be acumulative.

As well, I make a call and ask for people, that are willing to "donate" prizes to make the contest more interesting -such as requests and such- to please do so! I really hope that this contest just die for being deserted:
