Judging Criteria:



Oh boy! so what exactly are you going to be judged by?

we will be judging your avatar along these criteria:
-How well it relates to the theme
-Creativity
-Interpretation


How well it relates to the theme:
Obviously, you can't be entering for King Oberon if you're dressed up like a queen, right? We understand there's only so many items on Menewsha, but try your best. <3



Creativity:
Give us something that stands out! It's not a cosplay contest, we want you to use your own little twist! Don't forget to explain it. ;D

Interpretation:
This shows how well you understand the character. e.g If you're cosplaying Puck, have your avatar hold something mischievious!

Don't forget the explanation! Since mene items are exactly shakepearean, we need a little bit of info -1- 4 sentances- describing your avatar with what's going on in correlation to the character.


J
udging will take two days, and we'll announce the winners Via PM or through a thread. (If King wishes to) Good luck everyone!

He's really mischievous or said to be, so I gave him a play gun >_>'' cause.. he also causes trouble. The flower represents the flower he had to collect then turn into a potion.

The red and gold kind of make him more towards a 'bad' side, considering what deed he does. The flower represents the flower he is sent to get by the King Oberon.

I picked clothing that would be trendy around the time, because I figured that's what he would wear, if he does, debatably wear much of anything at all. I gave Oberon a crown and cape to signify royalty.

edit- and please ignore his lips, it's because if the AC xD

Half the pictures I've seen of her have wings, the other half don't so I was a little "Uhh" Ish about the whole thing since Oberon has no wings what so ever. Umm... She doesn't strike me as the most ..cheerful person.

The glass represents the potion that Oberon has Puck get for Titania to drink to fall in-love with the "ass" (>___<). I tried to make her very free flowing and natural as possible. Which explains the no shoes and bare skin.

Description: The staff, cloak and crown are to show that Titania is a queen, whilst the wings and halo show she is a fairy. The flower represents the magical flower accidently struck by cupid which is used to create the love potion. Hearts are also used in her outfit to suggest love which is very important throughout the play.

She has a wand of which resembles a spindle with green, purple and gold tinsil. She seeks to bring joy to every farmer who crosses her path. It is her way of repenting for over eating in their fields at dusk. Her wings are not at her shoulders but rather at her feet and she often gets ridiculed by other "normal" fairies because of that. She has confidence in her fairy abilities and seeks to prove herself that she, too, is a normal fairy.

I hope this is good. ^^ I am actually going to write a story about her for my personal enjoyment. She is my OC ^^

I wanted the colors to be as bright and eye catching as possible, which made orange perfect. There are some floral touches, with the hairpin and bouquet, that keep the avatar in touch with nature and the countryside. The rest is as flowing and delicate as possible, making her feel like someone who could just float on a breeze. She even has the wings to do it!

I would like that one to be the one fairy entry. Thanks!

Description: This is my own mischievous fairy, with the more renaissance guise than Shakespearean dream. He is a fairy of the blushing rose and spends his days playing with the butterflies, and is not easily spotted by mortal eye. Here's a little poem for how he is what he is.

I wear with me a guise of moors,
with butterflies hanging at my doors.
And whimsical breeze blows petals by,
to cause sweet dreams within your eyes.
And dust sparkles bright yet you cannot see,
A fae flower molded as the likes of me.
N'eyr in the heavenly dusk or light of brackish day,
twas only the golden glint of mine eyes that crossed your way.

Had Shakespeare's play taken place in a different season, I may have played a larger role. My skin is chill to the touch, and prolonged contact can cause frostbite. However, a brief kiss simply causes a pleasant tingle and icy blue lips.

Description:
A cheeky little thing though generally nice in his own way, he is often teased by other fairies for not being 'fairie' enough and of his 'dark' appearance.
His specialty is trickery, as he has a natural talent for it. Usually, he aims for naughty or misbehaving children to teach them a lesson or two. But he sometimes does it to other fairies for fun, though never with the intention of causing harm.
However, he is very often misunderstood by others even when his intentions are good because of his general nature, and his cheekiness coupled with his pride certainly does not help things. He has a pendant around his neck, of which he treasures greatly, as it was a gift from someone he cherished, though the person is no longer with him. He loves dancing during the night especially when the moon is round and bright, where fireflies emitting their flickering light follows him in a dance around the fields and forests.
