A Kai Lord knows the value of using his powers to shield himself from attacks to the senses that would otherwise shatter his mind. The following excerpt from Flight From the Dark is one such assault of nastiness! [/b]  I mean what was Joe thinking? Children may be looking at that picture! That poor horse! And really, was there any need for such graphic depictions of violence against arrows? Carelessly tossed away in to the smelly armpit of some unbathing 'prince'? I THINK NOT! No true Kai Lord could stand by and allow this! This contest is in two parts, feel free to enter one or both. Use your powers to alter parts of the picture (or just replace it entirely ) that is more suitable and less horrific for a wider audience. Similarly use all your mental abilities to shield the more gentle reader from the full horror of the battle as described in the text, by substituting or adding your own prose where you feel so inclined. Each half will be voted for separately when the second half of the KDD5 starts, and the points combined at the end. So it would be advantageous to enter both, but not necessary! If people have a picture but no filespace to host it, feel free to e-mail it to beowuuf@yahoo.com and I will host it through mine. Otherwise, get those brains working and post your entries here! Good luck, you champion of decency you! Edit: Contest now closed |

Pelethar lay fallen upon the ground after the big Gourgaz had pulled him from his horse, as the Gourgaz moved closer to the fallen prince to continue bulling the prince all of a sudden there was a whoosh sound as suddenly 4 carebears appeared from no where. “Give him the care bear stare.” Came the call from one of the bears. Then all of a sudden the Gourgaz was hit by a rainbow of colour. “He’ll now be your friend.” The brown bear said to the fallen prince. The Gourgaz reached down to pick up the fallen princes flag to hand it back to him “Sorry for being a meanie.” The lizard said in a raspy voice.  As the prince rose to his feet he questioned the carebears as to where such creatures had come from. “Oh we’re visiting all sorts of 80’s based entertain and tidying them up. We visited the turtles last week and now they do not play with such pointy weapons and instead enjoy games of monopoly, oh and just this morning we visited the thundercats, one of them kept using a derogatory term for women when calling to the others but now he doesn’t. He just sits around drinking milk and purring quitely.” The prince though for a moment he could quite quickly see where this might lead to the whole of Magnamund could be in danger from this new bear terror as it would reduce everyone to being too nice he considered he had two choices Turn to Section 350 to ask the Gourgaz to join with you to eradicate the carebear threat. Turn to Section 1 to forget this ever happened and start over again |

Lol. And so the original terror of the Gourgaz fight is suitably deflected by thoughts on the new horror of overly friendly bears infecting everyone with niceness!  Kids will be able to sleep much easier, parents less so - mission accomplished! |

Happy Prince Pelethar is easily winning the good-natured drawing competition with the delicate butterfly, until he is suddenly distracted by a lamb frolicking past with a family of squirrels holding a serene tea party on its back. This delightful scene distracts the happy prince long enough for the butterfly, gently envious of Pelethar's artistic skills, to tip a pot of ink onto the prince's page. The prince gasps softly at this sudden reversal of fortune, and the butterfly quickly moves to finish its own sketch before Pelethar can start anew. One of Pelethar's friends, a small mouse, quickly leaps forth and places itself in the way of the butterfly's quill. At this display of loyal friendship, the butterfly is overcome with remorse and concedes the contest to the prince, whose page now bears a large pool of ink that has coincidentally formed into the exact shape of the Lastlands. The prince's art is saved and the friendly contest is won, but you're not sure the butterfly has really overcome its mild envy. Perhaps you should use one of your Disciplines to bolster its self-esteem.  |

;D ;D ;D
I totally forgot about the carnage of war and the horror of amputation with that heartwarming tale.
Very nicely played sir! And now the Shadakine Wytches have entered the fray, and... well, and it just goes to show that the good classes are taking a nap! However, it is early days yet, we have over a week for you to get in your BBFC approved entries in!

Just to remind you all that there are five contests to enter and try your luck with, here's my entry to this one... Pelethar seems to be winning the popular vote with the skilled debator Mr Gourgaz until he is suddenly struck by an unlucky question. The Giak 's sh ift in questioning penetrates the pretence and Pelethar delays by scratching his right armpit. Your heart skips a beat when you see him hesitate and falter. Sensing victory is imminent, Mr Gourgaz raises its great oratory skills to the next level and strikes a mighty blow at the Prince's vis ion for the future. One of Pelethar's supporters pushes a question about whistl ing. His swift action saves his candidate from being embarrased, but he sacrifices dignity and his right hand and forearm have pins and needles from waving in the air. With Pelethar recovered, the tide of this inspiring debate turns swiftly in the prince's favour.  |

If the competition host is going to twist his own theme to include adult activities such as political debate, allow me to follow suit.  Wow, I suck at graphics. ;D |

Heh, I forgot to say this is a fantastic effort... well, concept wise. I mean obviously you didn't photoshot this, you actually got a prince and gourgaz stand in to take pictures, so seemlessly if everything blended ;D
Anywya, it doens't have to be a kiddies themed entry, just a U-rated piece of prose and picture and anyone, young or old and with delicate sensibilties can enjoy.
There are two parts, so you can just do a picture, or just do a peice of prose for a chance at half points
Don't delay, enter today!

I spent at least FIVE WHOLE MINUTES toiling over that masterpiece, and I did the whole thing using but a single tool (ellipse select). I just hope I haven't raised the bar so high it deters other people from entering.

Ok, here's Dharn's entry on my own filespace:  I promise to check my beowuuf mail on yahoo more thoroughly for other entries, though if you give me a hint here or in PM I'm likely to spot it in the spam deluge better. Glad Dharn posted this, it's exactly the sort of wholesome imagery that JD should have championed in the books! Can you do better? I think not! Prove me wrong ;D |

Wow, I have never been so proud as now, seeing Joe Dever's salacious prose and Gary Chalk's graphic drawing turned in to wholesome family entertainment you could let your grandmother read! *tear* So, the now it's time to vote! There are two parts to this. The first vote covers the PROSE section that shielded delicate minds from Joe Dever's words. Vote above for the best restructuring. First place gets 4 points, down to participation getting 1 point. Meanwhile, on this thread is where the picture part will voted for. There you can vote for the best cover up of Gary Chalk's X-rated depiction of animal and arrow cruelty. So thanks to all those are about to vote, thanks to all those who entered, and to all those who entered - good luck! |

The ability to articulate just how innocent a scene could be is a powerful one. Who best demonstrated it? We shall see soon!
