Level: 26.2 Loyalty: 26.2 Stamina: 13 Strength: 3 Resistance: 2 Dexterity: 2 Mentality: 0 Size Chart Reference: 5 Special Abilities: Assimilate, Adaptable, Endurance Moves: Claw, Crunch, Bone Shift, Devour
Trained: Name (1), Devour (4), Crunch (3), Danger Sense (10), Intimidation (7) Ashe, with Inyala on his shoulder, approached the contest hall. He had been looking forward to these contests all year, but once again, time had gotten away from him and here he was, right at the end of the registration period, rushing to get signed up... and not much hope of winning. But he wanted to see how his grotesque beast would do and it would be worth the time. Hey, if nothing else, he would get some extra points, increase his ranking... Inyala let out a chirp of alarm as the beast that followed Ashe shuffled off to try and snap up someone's Houluh pup as they walked past. Thankfully, Ashe had used his drake muzzle wraps, so the jaws of the Corpse Construct weren't actually that dangerous... But he could still step on an unsuspecting pet. Or person. Or knock them over, or... Ashe also had his nodes handy; a quick spell would make the Corpse behave. He didn't think he'd need that, though. Ashe called him firmly, and the beast came. Slowly, but obediently. They arrived at the contest hall and Ashe beamed at Shayna, knowing full well he had a disgusting corpse made up of different animal parts behind him. "I'm here to register Reoz, my Corpse Construct!" He announced, and proceeded filling out the paperwork. -c

It was that time of year again. The scent of pumpkin was in the air, activities abound that catered to the creepy and spooky, and Kadin was entering a couple more creepy pets in some creepy contests. Last year, Kimu had done well in the Vai Min Mur contest, while Velkar had dominated the Freak Show. Now that she had a win in both categories, she wasn't eligible to enter either this year, a fact which Kadin had certainly gotten an earful about. For. A long time. But that didn't mean that he was barred from entering Kimu in the Freak Show, at least, so here they were today. He went forward to the booth to fill out all of the appropriate forms for the show, wondering what sort of creatures would show up this year. He wasn't expecting to win, considering he hadn't done much preparation for it, but it never hurt to let his pets get the practice in.

Fee, Moondust Tailypo Level: 8 | Loyalty: 10 Stamina: 2 Strength: 0 Resistance: 0 Dexterity: 4 Mentality: 4 Abilities: Float, Magically Resistant, Shimmer, Shadow Weakness Moves: Bite, Travel By Moonlight, Deceptive Lure Trained: Travel by Moonlight (8) Silver always felt a bit out of place at the Freak Show. Still, they liked to give it a try, and they did like the idea of giving more unusual creatures a chance at the spotlight. To celebrate creatures who may or may not be conventionally beautiful? Well, they could get behind that. They made sure to bring a ton of treats with them, because they had quickly learned that Fee was the most dangerous when she was hungry, which was... often. She was a truly unusual creature that had continued to surprise them as she grew. They liked the idea of showing her at the contest so that other people could learn a little more about her, perhaps. With Fee cradled in their arms (and Quin asleep on their shoulder), they waited patiently for their turn to register. When it was finally their turn, they practically squeaked in surprise. "Hi! Hello! I mean, ah, I would like to register, for, for the show... please. My name is Silver, and, this ah, this is Fee." [135.7, 8.2]

It was that time of the year again with this strange tradition, Via Min Mur, and the festivities surrounding it. Xentus came to enjoy some of the events; giving candy to children, putting up scary decor, and the special contests hosted by the hall. But.. Part of him still didn't agree with the idea of a 'freak show'. To be weird, unusual, stared upon for being different. And sometimes feared. It wasn't a label that he wanted to attach to any of the creatures in his care. His personal menagerie included a grand variety of strange and unusual beasts, yes, but none of them he'd call a freak. For his own peace of mind, he let the definition of 'freak' be something more like.. One of a kind; something special. He felt much better about entering the alurook like this. Mashiik was certainly something special; he'd never seen another owl like she. With brilliant golden plumage and the capacity for magic, she was a 'freak'. "This one seeks to enter Mashiik to the freak show", the leopard told the registration desk once it was his turn, looking briefly to the alurook beside him.

Fiera had, admittedly, left her entries into these two contests down to the wire. But she was here now, and still with a couple hours to spare, so everything was going to be fine, right? She could just say that she was... avoiding giving the competition any time to catch up with her. Yeah, that was it. Arethusa, to her credit, had been excellent to work with today. Unlike usual, she was being wonderfully cooperative, which made filling out the paperwork a breeze. She couldn't help but glance at the organizer's desk as she did so, noticing several other forms. It looked like the contest was going to be busy this year... though she was sure that Arethusa would be a strong competitor. She glanced back at her equillion, noticing her sharp fangs and glittering scales. It was enough to make anyone nervous. Fiera could only hope that all of her preparations were enough.

A freak show, huh? Last year Sevyrn had brought in a bone familiar but one again she didn’t have anything she would consider straight up “freaky”. That didn’t mean that she wouldn’t at least have a go at a contest, though - this time of year seemed to be the only time that she ever came down to the contest hall unless it involved the houlou division and she may as well make the most of it. This time she had a different newcomer at her side, this time a large black estharne with an eerie blue haze to it - Eclipse. The fact that she had the bare bones of her skull for a head meant she had some degree of freaky to her, right?
“Hey!” She greeted, once it was her turn in line to fill out the paperwork. “I’d like to register for the Freak Show, with Eclipse here.”

After they had signed up for the other contest with Rhys, Noa called Nightshade to him with the collar of bonding and proceeded to sign up for the freak show. It was an interesting choice of name, and the participants were an interesting lot. For once, Nightshade wasn't the weirdest thing here. Noa had gotten used to him over time, but the tendrils framing his face and the oversized claws on his wings were still something of a surprise for the uninitiated. Well, he'd make a reasonable showing, Noa was sure. He doubted they would win like they had last year, when it had been Nightshade in the Vai Min Mur contest, but he wasn't eligible for that one specifically because of the victory anyway. Rhys was busy looking at all the other entries, but Noa figured they would see all the creatures paraded through the show ring once the time came. He had no interest in scoping out the competition any more closely; there was work to be done at home, and he felt that he had been out and about quite enough lately anyway, what with all the inane requests he had taken from the quest board. As soon as the sign-ups were finished, he turned to leave.

TO be frank, he dreaded when Yolko got big enough to start being more of a hellion then she intended to be already. Bad enough when she was but a frail little baby, but being the size of a normal, with air quotes for "normal" sized housecat, he has to keep a much closer eye on her interactions with anything smaller or at the same size. Because housecat size or not, the tailypo's hunting instincts were 'throw things at it first, look cute and ask why later'. Witchy little brat cat. So the freak show contest might be a perfect reasoning for her to start being a brat on command. He'd discovered the throwing of random objects with hissy fits and random spats between tailypo and houlou, and don't get him started on dealing with the cat and the fossil bird, determined to peck or claw each others eyeballs out when not held away separated. "Registering my tailypo Yolko for the freak show." he says, looking harried, as his mask was yeeted seconds before and he had to go get it back.
