That's right! With PRIZES!
I've decided to hold a contest because I'm extremely bored and am probably making a stupid decision I'll regret when I'm fully awake.
OH WELL. x]

I'll cancel the contest if there's not at least 20 30 entries ('Cause if I keep it at 20, everyone would get a prize. I would love that, but it would be no fun. =P ). Remember, you can enter more than once.
What will happen to your art: Winners will go in my journal for sure, losing entries might.

Description: KARIN HANAZONO~
Karin is the protagonist of the series. Her name literally means "The Flower Bell of the Flower Garden," with the "Flower Garden" as her surname and "Flower Bell" as her given name. Karin used to live with her aunt because her parents died a long time ago, but she moved in with Kazune and Himeka after they found out about her goddess powers. She is an outgoing person, and sticks up for her friends. The ring Karin originally thought was her mother's ring allows her to borrow godly power. Her ring is silver and has the power of the goddess Athena (Aphrodite in Chu). Karin, at first, was in love with Kirika Karasuma but later falls in love with Kazune, not just because she finds out that Kirika is a woman. It is later revealed in the last volume of the manga that Karin is actually Kazuto Kujyou's wife, which was stated in Volume 7 that Karin is not a clone, and in the anime that Karin is Suzuka, but turned back into a baby by Kazuto to protect her from Karasuma Kirihiko.
