Wintersky and Snowsong have been gifted their first litter, and now have four beautiful incense containers to look after! That's a couple too many for me to handle on my own. Want to help me out?
1 --- 2 --- 3 ---4 Female --- Male --- Female --- Male
Meet Wintersky and Snowsong
Wintersky and Snowsong are both fairly relaxed and friendly people who take their work seriously and their play just as seriously. They will be firm parents and teach their children everything they know. Where they live
▶ Wintersky will be wrapped around his children's little paws while they are kips, and while he will be strict about teaching them life lessons all it takes is a pair of giant baby eyes staring at him and he melts. He is an excellent tracker and can follow any sort of trail. He's slow to anger or take offense, and inclined to laugh rather than give in to bouts of moodiness. ▶ Snowsong is a loving mother, but when she puts her paw down no amount of tears will sway her. She wants her children prepared for all the things life can throw at them. As a cunning strategist she thinks before she acts and has a seemingly limitless supply of patience. She's been known to give back as good as she gets, but doesn't have much of a temper and prefers polite demurring to being rude; you never know when you can make a new enemy.
If I already have Fumes can I still enter? Yes! Anyone can enter; oldie, newbie, tons of Fumes, no Fumes.
Do I have to give the baby a cold name? Nope. The naming style is something I do specifically and the contest title is just because both parents coincidentally have chilly names. If you want to do the same, by all means do! But if it's not really your style, that's fine too. Just nothing weird please.
The naming style I use is based off a book series and involves looks, personality, or a combination of the two. You're given a name as a child then when you grow you either change it to something that fits you or you keep your juvenile name. One changes their name for any number of reasons. Their juvenile name could be something childish and not really something they want to be saddled with as an adult, they could have achieved something great or been part of a unique moment, or they undergo a change and feel their name no longer reflects their personality so they change it to one that does. In Wintersky's case he got his name because his hair is winter white and his pelt looks like the sky, and as for Snowsong she is cool-tempered and graceful. To avoid confusion I do not give my Fumes juvenile names anywhere except in backstory. If you decide to follow my naming style please make sure the name you submit is the adult name you wish to stick with.
Are all four incense containers up for grabs? No, only three. I just want to give people options. Once this is over I'll claim whoever's left.
How many times can I enter? Three times! You can only win once though.
Does it cost anything to enter? Nope! These babies are free : )
Are they part of a pack/Are you going to make a pack? Nope and nope. Wintersky and Snowsong are drifters, and while they might one day join a pack they don't have any desire to create one of their own at this time.
Do the children have to stay with their parents/in their home territory? As kips, yes, they must stay with Wintersky and Snowsong IC. After they grow to adults, if you want, they can leave their home to go elsewhere. Of course Wintersky and Snowsong are perfectly fine with their adult offspring continuing to stay with them, so don't feel like I'm kicking you out of the forest!
How long do I have to enter? I'm going to close the contest after four days, so you have until 9pm CST on the 13th to enter!
Can I edit my entry? Yes, up until the closing date.
So how's this work?
All you do is fill out the form and post it in this thread. Nice and simple! Just remember:
▶ You can only enter three times ▶ If you enter more than once, each form should get their own post ▶ No more entries after the 13th of May, 9pm CST. Here's a clock if you're unfamiliar with CST hours

Incense #: [4] Name: [Littlesnow]
Personality: [Nearly perfect memory, he will always remember what his parents teach him and remind his siblings if they're parents aren't there. He's shy but only when his siblings or others start to use harsh words. As the words continue he' tends to shrink into himself. He is sensitive but knows tears won't get you far, so he keeps his tears bottled.]
What does your baby think of their family?: [Littlesnow loves his parents to no end. His father is his role model and his mother will always have his respect and love. He adores his siblings no matter what and will strive to do things with their needs first no matter how they act.]
Personality: Slipstream is a wanderer especially as a kip, there is always something just around that corner, under that tree, in that lake! His curiousity brings him to all sorts of interesting places and quite often he drags a matted, twiggy and muddy coat home, but on the plus side dad can always follow the debris trail to find him! He likes to snuggle with his siblings and as such has to do a bunch of grooming before hand or his coat will get in the way of that. He loves to return home and see his family at the end of the day, completely exhausted from the day of galavanting. He would make an excellent scout and he hopes to one day have the patience to track like his father does.
What does your baby think of their family?: Slipstream loves his family and from the time he was a kip it felt good and right to be around them. His father is good at tracking and is a more easy going fume, he likes that and admires his father for that but he also wants to have the same commanding presence of his mother, this may just be a want however, he is not sure if he will be able to master it until he is much older. He like to play and adores it when his siblings go on adventures with him and more's the better when he can sneak off with a parent for some one on one life skills and general chat.

Incense #: [1] Name: [Midnightdream]
Personality: [Middre is outgoing and very reckless. She almost always acts before she thinks. She likes to attack prey head on instead of thinking of the best strategy. Having a short attention span, she gets bored easily and always wants to be doing something, which often leads to trouble. What other fumes think of her isn't important to her, she does what makes her happy and that's all that matters. Not one for manners, her speech is often blunt, which sometimes comes across as offensive. She dreams of distant, exciting lands where no one tells her what to do.]
What does your baby think of their family?: [This little lady always plays too rough with her younger siblings and goes off on her own. Of course her parents tell her otherwise, but to her they're just overly cautious without cause and no fun at all.She's always getting into trouble and knows exactly how to shorten her fathers scolding. She's a daddies girl and loves when he teaches her tracking skills. As a kip, she's often annoyed with her mother because she doesn't give in to her crying act. She has no patience and hates when her mother tries to teach her strategies. Only when she's full grown with kips of her own does she realize how amazing her mother was to her and appreciates the time with her siblings. ]
Personality: Quite and gentle, Sunstar takes after his mother with endless patience. As a kip, he struggled inwardly, feeling like an oddball with his bright coat contrasting with the rest of his family. But his family always made him feel welcome so the struggle didn't last long and he realized you could look just like your parents and not fit in. He aspires to be a strategist like his mother, analyzing every situation to figure out the best way to handle it. He always thinks before he acts or says. His memory isn't the best but he can think on his feet and act quickly if the need arises.
What does your baby think of their family?: He is deeply loyal to his family, especially his siblings. He can always be depended on when things go wrong exploring. Very thoughtful, he often gives advice and is always there to listen. He takes a scolding from his parents very seriously as he almost never gets in trouble and respects what his parents think.He loves his parents very dearly and has a hard time leaving the nest when it's time.

What does your baby think of their family?: Her mother is her role model while she is young. She doesn't have the patience or drive for tracking, the moment conditions become less then pleasant she high tails it out of tracking lessons and goes to see what mom is up to. She likes her siblings until they get to silly and start roughhousing then she slinks away grumbling to a quieter place.
