update 8/13/2014:

Oh wow! i'm so happy so many people took interest in this event ;v; i was giddy for a whole two days! BUT IM HERE TO lay down some more information. Some about FAQ and some about what i'm going to be judging entries on.. which a lot of you were probably wondering~~~

---

Eight winners will be chosen judged on two factors:

1. Personalization

including:
    1. personality
    2. backstory
    3. quirks
    4. other ways of identifying your cou!


2. Design

including
    1.appearance
    2.color
    3.pattern


You dont have to be artistic to join, since i'll be judging on overall excellence. You can have a stellar personality and backstory description and an average design and still have a VERY good chance of winning, since i love to see what you guys can come up with! Same thing with art, if the design is wonderful enough to balance out the lack of identity, it still has a very good chance of winning as well >vo b

I've also added extra information on coukyo to help with designing way below, so check that out too!
   








For finally setting my new species out into the world, I'm going to hold a short MYO Coukyo event! Like a contest!


Event Info:

★ This event will allow anyone to try their hand at designing and personalizing their own Coukyo!

★ 8 Winners will be chosen

★ As long as your design follows the rules and shows a good amount of enthusiasm, you have a very good chance of winning!!!

★ Ends in a week, 8/23/2014, 5:00 pm (PST) .....subject to change




Rules:

★ Designed Coukyo cannot posses any rare/blessed/special traits. Only the average build is allowed.

★ No guardians or divine figures

★ To enter an entry, please link me your design in this journal.

Design Submission must include the following:

 - image of design (colored)
- description of the coukyo (whether it be personality, back story, or quirks) as long as some personalization is given~

★ Up to three entries per person, however you will only be able to win one.

★ If you are posting it onto anywhere, please specify that this is an entry for my event.

★ Please have fun! Coukyos are a magical and diverse species, a lot of things are possible~

★ aaand questions are always welcome!



Here are some information about Coukyos, including guidelines:

Introduction to Coukyos:

Variations of Coukyo Builds:

FAQ answers and extra tid bits:

- Coukyos can have colorful and varying patterns, dyes do exist in their world

- Coukyos can accessorize

- For designs that don't make it, an opportunity to buy them might arise. I'll need to make a pricing sheet for that though, so stay tuned~

-  submissions may be traditional

- submissions can be posted on other sites and linked

- coukyos can have hair, as you can see in my design and traits post above

-  Most Coukyos depend on magic and traditional ways more than technology.

- Normal Coukyos do have biological sexes, however sex does not distinguish a male coukyo from a female one.  Besides genitalia, there are no physical differences between coukyos of opposite sexes. Sex and gender are considered different items of identification. (this information will most likely be elaborated on in a future post)

-
 Coukyos are capable of developing pretty advanced culture. Im working on some information about bands and societies at the moment and its pretty common for large bands to develop their own customs over generations of development. Chefs, alchemists, herbalists, n all that jazz can exist as long as the band is well supported enough






Coukyos are a closed species made by kub-e
