The Wastes Solo

The Wastes Solo Write

First, the elves left. Then, the griffs left. Then, the mice and rats scurried away. Something big was coming.The only ones who remained just before the storm hit were humans, weredragons, sand dwarves, and snake kin. As the storm hit, it tore the city to the ground, swallowing up its inhabitants. 

In the neerby Mud Wall City, news ran like wildfire. There was a wild story that the survivors had built a city underground. Naturally, the people got curious. Soon, a small search party was orginized. They would set out into the sandy wastes to find the City of Sand.

~~~~~~~~

The creatures:

-Humans: intelligent, yet not strong enough to travel into the wastes without a special sand suit.

-Elves: Tough, agile archers, elves are a small minority in the City. They are often hired as assasins and bodyguards. They are tall, and can breathe in sand. They have limited magical abaility.

-Weredragon: A human who was blessed by a magical item becomes a weredragon. They can change into a large yellow dragon at will. The dragon can fly, breathe in sand, and summon sand storms.

-Sand Dwarves: Large insects that are capable of telepathy and controlling sand. They are a green yellow in colour, and have six eyes, making a ring on top of their head. They stand on thir bottom feet, and are about 4-5 feet in height. Extremely advanced magicial ability.

-Snake Kin: These reptiles can grow to 20-50 feet long, and are a rich blue or purple in colour. They are like regualr snakes, except they are capable of summoning arms made out of energy for themselves, as well as communication. They are capable of magic to a fairly advanced degree.

-Griff: These canines are extremely tough. They can bond with only one elf or sand dwarf and protect them to the death. They can telepathicly communicate with their bond. Capable of any magic their bond can.

-Sand Hunter: These smal, black birds will chase down, swarm, and eat anyone with magic. They travel in packs and secrete a glistening oil from their feathers that can cure burns.

Rules:

1) Everyone must be an elf, griff, sand dwarf, or snake kin. Maybe I will let somebody be a were dragon.  

2) Everyone can have 2 characters.  

3) Every griff must bond with somebody other than a griff.

4) Creatures that get magical powers choose any kind of power they want. The downside is that the more powerful the power is, the more sand hunters will track you. 

5) Shipping is allowed, but sand dwarves cannot be shipped.

6) You can choose what your griffs look like as long as it is ind of like a dog.

7) Password is "Dune"

8) THIS STARTS WEDNESDAY, JUNE 28! NO LATE ENTRIES! UP TO 15 PEOPLE CAN JOIN.

9) If your character dies, you can make a new one 

10) You guys figure out who I ship with who

That character already has a griff, so would you mind creating a elf or snake kin for her to bond to? If you would like, I can make her a character to bond to.

I am sorry, and I know that I said spots would be open until Sunday, but I have way too many people. If you reserved/only posted one character, you can post until you have 2, if you would like, but we are done taking in new people. I am REALLY SUPER SORRY that I lied, but I just cannot accomodate everyone into the solo write.

Here are the people who can post one more character:

-Rae

-Kitten

-Killim

-Unsuspectstorytllr 

Here are the people who can post two

-Owlgirl

-Cecilla S.

Again, I am really sorry for both lying and changing my mind for the SECOND TIME. You guys must be sick off all the announcments. Really sorry.

Alright, I am thinking about making the plot an alternate history version of World War 1. It will be PG, don't worry, but just generally a cool new look at what that time would look like with strange creatures and magic.

FIrst of all, you posted this after spots closed, so I may not allow this character. There are not many flowers and trees, so your power would have little use. Controlling sand or rocks will give her more power. If you are willing to work with me to make your charater more unique, I will let her in.

I have bonded Killim's griff to my character, but I am willing to change that, if you make some more changes to your character. Also, innate powers are the powers that come with the species, like how elves can breathe in sand. Also, the elves are generally taller. 

Another thing, you said she was 14, and the minimum age is 15.
I will let her in and bond her to the griff when, and only when, you make these changes.
