    Winter Wolf - Mount

    I am not good at system drawing, so I have created the mount, using a simple hand sketch.

    Special effects:

    1) The mount will be white and it will looks shiny
    2) White paw marks will be seen in the ground for 3 seconds when it walks/runs

    Animation:

    1) Howl
    2) It shakes off and the snow flakes will fly in the air.

    History:

    I have a silver mane mount. I wish to have a white color mount, which looks furious; A hunter.

    Sorry for not showing the front, side views. I thought that would affect the environment I have created.

    Arianrhod's Cage

    Wings grow strong
    Once the cage is gone
    A flicker of white
    Sweeps through the night

    2qsb56u.png
    My mount is based on the Welsh Goddess Arianrhod. She had the ability to shape-shift into a large white owl which enabled her to see into the dark depths of the human soul.
    The cage represents her free spirited nature and the ivy being her sacred plant. Its also where the player will sit.
    Her wings release a myriad of snowflakes upon movement leaving a wintery trail behind.

    Since we could use the Christmas theme in this contest, I took the opportunity to design my ideal Christmas/Winter mount. fox-26.gif

    Gembound Unicorn

    Should you find yourself lost in the North, you may be found by a Gembound - as it is their purpose as guardians of the North. It will ask you a question. Should you answer it dishonestly, it will dissipate into snow and frost, leaving you to find your own way, or succumb to death. Should you answer it honestly, it will guide you a kinder place, away from the cold; after all, there is no greater gift than life. If, out of nowhere; in the midst of frost and snow, you hear a single bell jingle - you can be sure a Gembound approaches.


    It's characterised by it's large rack of antlers, heavily furred neck and back and double row of scales along it's back.

    -It uses it's antlers to detect dangerous weather. When the icicles formed upon them fall, this incidicates an incoming snow/hailstorm. Should one see a Gembound with clean antlers, they should take shelter.

    -It's fur is a double coat, exceptionally soft - especially where it is thickest. The Gembound is envied by rich fashionable women, hunters and cold people alike. Only an honest person may touch it's fur.

    -It's scales always point North if placed on the water's surface, like a compass. The Gembound has an excellent sense of direction.


    Movement; The Gembound moves in a graceful manner. Not only like a deer, or a horse - but something of it's own nature. It must take care to traverse deep snow or thin ice, as much as anything else.

    Idle; It's body heat causes ice crystals that settle in it's coat to evaporate around it, generating a light cloud of steam which sparkles as it catches the light.

    Everyone likes cookies, but we can never have them in PWI.
    So, i created a cookie mount :3
    When using mount, cookie will be floating.
    When standing still, cookie mount will rise up like in the picture.

    Since this got proxy voted out last time by a vote bot... here's another re-entry.

    It's said to be the coldest of ducks, one that's soo cold that it can barely walk straight, it needs heat for survival, maybe just maybe you can save it; or maybe it just hates Christmas.

    The original mount idea was to celebrate wonderland but the story of A Christmas Carol also influenced the creation of it.

    and of course credit to the original creator who also invented a walk cycle, which can be found below:

    Hello!

    My mount is a small foxie with huge eyes and fluffy fur, with a thick mane of hair around neck that makes it even cuter. Foxie moves normally, in a graceful manner, it sometimes "roars" and/or purrs of contentment.

    Meet Carol, an adorable arctic weasel, who's here to melt your heart when the chill of winter is starting to settle in!

    Some info:

    - all his accessories are symbols of winter/Christmas (even his name, although he doesn't sing carols :c )
    - his fur is milky white (with a dark tuft on the tip of his tail) and fluffy, just like a real weasel!
    - his size shouldn't be too big, the height is slightly shorter than that of the player
    - preferred idle animation: Carol slightly gets up on his rear feet and looks left and right, sniffing the air (as if checking his surroundings)
    - the intended design of the mount is simple yet symbolic; the mount has a subtle rainbow glow on his tail tuft and socks, and a frosty mist coming out of his back

    Additional sketches and details:

    An idea of what the running cycle of the mount should be (NOTE: this is only for reference purposes. I do not own this GIF and all credit goes to its original creator)

    And bonus picture as proof of their cuteness overload!

    (fact: despite their adorable appearances, weasels are actually bloodthirsty savages)

    A sledging we shall go

    45085b32acf10b26b25b748aa5d4f1f2.jpg
    Only just noticed this event now so this is a basic version of the mount. If I was to do things up a bit more I would possibly use red as the sledge colour along with little bells, as well as maybe a couple presents on the ledge iself.

    15aa93c37869fcbbaaad0c810555a1f0.jpg
    Had more time so did this up a little

    Idle Movement
    Huskie sits (may howl) and occasionally lies down (may roll around a little)

    During Movement
    If the slightly more festive version is wanted then bells may jiggle while on the move, as well as the faint patter of the huskies paws.

    While the below links are unnecessary, I like to reference things for the future as a just incase need to refer back to.
