Poor Seregil. It's a hard life, being a prince! Not only does he have his upcoming coronation and the running of the kingdom to worry about, but his 21st birthday is fast approaching and by law he must choose a bride!
With so much on his mind, Seregil has decided to hold a royal ball, and of course, has left it up to his faithful regents, Lady Mystique and elleth celebren, to organise the whole shebang. I guess that's what we are here for!
And so, if you know of a lady ready for marriage with the temperament necessary to help Seregil rule, read on to find out how your Koshi can receive an invitation to the ball!
Closing Date for Entries - 30th June, 2005, Gaia Time.
Judging will begin on the 1st July, and most likely go for a couple of days.
Note for Judges elleth and Ala, when judging begins, remember that you will need to put on your RP hats and put yourselves in the frame of mind of a Royal Ball.
If you are having trouble deciding which is your favourite, follow these guidelines and give scores out of 10 in your minds:
Do the colours of the dress go well together?
Would it looks out of place at a ball?
Is it eye-catching enough for a prince to notice?
Does it suit the potential bride?
Choose your pics for first, second, third, and the special prize (most out-there original), then we will meet over MSN or PM to piscuss which should get what and why.

Competition Information
First things first - this is not an art competition! This means that it is not necessarily the best picture that wins, but the dress that the judges agree is the prettiest/most inventive. That's why there is also an option to find a pic rather than drawing it.
So even if you think your drawing skills leave a lot to be desired, please do enter. You have just as good a chance of winning as anyone!
Now, Seregil wants it known that this is to be a life match. After all, it wouldn't do for a queen to be running off and having relationships with other men! The kingdom would go up in flames! So make sure that you are willing for your Koshi to never have children with anyone but Seregil.
Prizes
First Prize - a child from the breeding of Seregil and his bride, paid for by elleth celebren and Myself. So yes, that technically is a free Koshi! You will get first choice of the children, as this will be from a 3 child breeding. (And before anyone asks, yes, I have cleared this with Alatariel.)
Second Prize - a May 2005 letter (this is the one with the guitars in it). I already have this ready in my inventory for the recipient of it.
Third Prize - a clothing change for one of your Koshis from Ala's item shop, when a slot becomes available, to be paid for by elleth and myself. This means that you will need to lurk and snag a spot yourself, and let us know when you have done so and how much it will cost.
Special Prize - April 2005 letter, awarded for the most 'out there', eye-catching entry!
The Lady Mystique Award - this is a special prize from me, for the dress that I myself would most like to wear. The prize is a fully growing custom (no lineart changes) pet from either of my shops - Drakkania, or Unicorn Mist. Click my sig map's buttons to check them out!
And the Winners Are....
To claim your prizes, please send a PM to Lady Mystique quoting the paragraph below with your name in it!
First place: Shelly (pata_lover)
Seregil's new bride! Wedding bells are in the air! Watch for the children of the breeding to be posted, then choose one and name it!
Second place: Brittany (elven_chick13)
The May 2005 letter! If you like, you can choose to have one of the latest ones instead, containing the phoenix circlet or bone dragon thingy.
Third place: Ashley (emo in my head)
Item shop clothing change! When a slot becomes available, snag it, then let me know how much I have to pay for it for you.
Special prize: Satin (sailornorthstar)
What a dress! April 2005 letter is yours!
Lady Mystique Award: Andrea (pata_lover)
I fell in love with this dress! You have won a pet from one of my shops! As I have closed Drakkania, you can have a Unicorn, or wait until I have set up my new shop in a week or so and choose one from there!

How to Enter
This is the easy bit. You need to either draw or find a picture of the dress/outfit that your would-be bride will be wearing to the Royal Ball. Simple, no?
Once you have that ready, you will need to post the entry here in the thread, using the form below. You may post the picture itself for others to see, but when filling out the form, only use the link. This will save space and make things a lot easier for the judges.
You can enter once only per Koshi, but with as many of your Koshis as you would like.

Note - the reason I have requested that you post the ID card of your Koshi is not only to see her name, but so the judges can see how well the dress would suit her to make our judging easier.

[Silver_Gun] (( *goes into RP mode* Just to make sure, Can you use pictures from like dress catalogs? I'm too tired to draw. XD! )) Certainly you can! I thought I mentioned that drawn or found was fine... maybe I should make it stand out more.

Certainly, Silver, though remember that if she wins, Seregil will be the only one she can mate with from now on!
Also, elleth has donated another prize, so there will now be 4! Have to update that.
There are so many pretty entries already! This is going to be a hard choice...
