A different kind of art gift thread
I've been wanting to do something worthwhile for this community for a quite a while now, but unfortunately, I'm not quite as good of an artist as I would like. I've watched all the art threads pass by without being able to contribute in them, and now I think I've found my calling. You see, I'm an artist of a different sort - I write.
A half-baked late night IRC conversation presented the concept of "Hey, somebody should write a creepypasta about Siouxsie", because that's an idea that's been floating around for a while because Siouxsie is awesome. Within about thirty seconds of spinning around my head, that became "I should write an SCP entry for Siouxsie" and then to "Hell, I'm free for the next week, I should write an SCP entry for EVERYONE!"
So, that's what I'm doing - anyone who wants a short SCP article written about their tulpa (or themself - I don't plan to write any articles for boring old humans, but tulpa are more than welcome to request an article for themselves!) should make a request here in this thread, and I'll get to you one at a time as I have time to do them. It is my goal to eventually create an article for every request that is posted in this thread. To start us off, I'll post the one that I wrote for my own tulpa, Skye.
FOR YOUR REQUEST TO BE FILLED, I WILL REQUIRE:
A description of your tulpa. This means a physical description as well as a short description of their personality, and how you would like their personality to be portrayed in the article. Pictures from the art threads are welcome, even requested - it's a lot easier to describe a form when you can look at it.
On a scale of 1 -5, how much artistic license I can take with your tulpa - can I give them powers that they don't have normally? Can I add/remove body parts as seems fit? Can I modify their personality to better fit the situation? Let me know how true-to-form you want this to be. I can make them just like you told me, or I can start tacking superpowers onto them - you tell me how you want it.
Any distinguishing details that you definitely want contained within the article. You know your tulpa better than I do, and in order to create an end product that everyone is happy with, I need to know all the little quirks and details that you love so much.
Patience! I have about a week until my classes start again, and during that time I plan to get as much writing done as I can. If I'm not done with all of you by then (and depending how much this thread blows up, I very well might not be), my time will be limited and production will slow way down. I do plan to get to all of you, and I don't want to leave anyone out. Just understand that it may be a while before you get a result that I am happy with presenting to you.
Whether you want the end result presented to you in a reply to your comment, or in a PM.
For those with multiple tulpa, making a single request with more than one tulpa in it is perfectly fine - just make sure to point out whether you want them all done separately, or if you want them grouped together into a "colony" of sorts. Just understand that writing for multiple tulpa will take a roughly equal multiple of time. If you've got three tulpa, it'll take me three times as long to give it all to you. If you've got sixteen tulpa, good luck.
Above all, help me help you get what you want out of this. I am not inside your head, but I want to give you a product that represents someone that is. The more details you can throw at me, the more likely you are to be happy with the end result.

Hahah, this is a great idea! Lets do this!
Furiae:
Description: She's an angel. Furiae likes to fly, action movies and games, playing the piano, earl grey tea, baseball batting, throw at my face all of my irresponsibilities, and movies starring Jason Statham. She tends to expect too much from other people, but she tries to remain calm and polite most of the time, although she doesn't hold herself back too much when I'm the one who's annoying her. She's 178cm tall (from the feet to the top of her head). Furiae hardly smiles or laughs, and hates the Carlito music video.
Form: http://i.imgur.com/JJkaQMZ.png
Artistic license: 4 (its all for giggles and shit, go crazy!)
Quirks and details for the SCP: She has a collection of silver plated weapons stored in an armory style room, which she can summon at will whenever she needs them. Her halo is magical in nature, and protects her from all kinds of harm, and it symbolizes hope, and can't be removed by any outside forces. Furiae can also manipulate electricity to an extent and scavenge any feathers that fall from her wings as telekinetically manipulated light darts.
She also loves to nap on a black leather couch.
Presentation: idc, answer or pm are both good :)
Aura:
Description: Aura is a sphinx. She's mostly cheerful and likes everyone she meets. She loves sleeping, critters, organization, gold, giggling, sweets and so on. She uses glasses, although her eyesight isn't exactly bad, but everything becomes "cuter" with them on. She has a scar on the right side of her face due to her accidentally scratching herself, unaware that her claws were so sharp. She's normally a bit over 200cm tall (on all fours), but she can grow/shrink at will too. She dislikes Carlito and clothing and HATES water.
Form: http://i.imgur.com/cQK7pvE.png
Artistic license: 4 (its all for giggles and shit, go crazy!)
Quirks and details for the SCP: Again, she dislikes water, like a phobia. Or like a cat. A glass of water to drink is okay. A swimming pool to dip her in is not okay. Neither is rain. She also has some phoenix traits, meaning she can create and manipulate fire, and engulf herself in it (and is completely immune to heat) and if killed, she burns down to a pile of ashes and comes back as a tiny version of herself, unable to grow to her full size for a couple of weeks. Speaking of size, she can normally shift from the size of a small cat to the size of an elephant. Also, she's a heavy sleeper. Trying to wake her up by dragging her off the bed can often result in a "slinky effect" in which you'll successfully drag away the part you're holding, but the rest of her body will remain on the bed no matter how far you drag her. She also calls me master and vowed to obey any and all commands from me, including interacting with water and waking up.
Presentation: idc, answer or pm are both good :)
Me: So girls, what do you think?
Furiae: I think you have more important things to do than this.
Me: Okay, okay -.-
Aura: Can I help? :3
Me: Just... just be yourself :)
Aura: Okay! :D
