Lady-Zelda-of-Hyrule

I was a little sad to see that the numbers weren't as great as last year's were, but I suppose I picked a busier time of year to do something like this.

Thank you to those who did join in though! I put the numbers in a random number generator and the results are as follows:

For the 1200 points:



Number 2, which was ! Congratulations!

And for the 400 points:



Number 13, which was Very well done!

Congratulations to you both! I'll be sending your points across shortly.


Well done to the winners but once again, thank you all for taking part! Just one more thing before I go...

As an extra bonus and thank you to those who took the time to enter the give away, I'll be giving one month of CORE to everyone else who took part. You're all winners in my eyes.

Edit - And we're done! Thank you!

Hi there everyone! I hope you're all doing well and you're enjoying the holiday season so far! Whatever you decide to do, I hope you stay safe and have a great time.

It doesn't seem like it's been over a year since the last give away! As it went down so well last time and DA has brought back the "Give one, get one" offer on CORE, and I have decided to do another giveaway this year! Only this time we're giving more than one lot of points away:

As it's the season of giving, we're planning to give the winner(s) 1200 points so they can give themselves and a friend 3 months of Core. The second winner will be given points to gift themselves and a friend 1 month of Core.

If we get enough interest, we will double this to give away two 3 months of CORE and two single months!

We'll be using a random number generator to pick the winners. Just like last time, there are a few basic rules and ways to better the chances of winning. Please read everything carefully! The rules are as follows:

 You must be a watcher of this gallery! New watchers are always welcome, but please don't just watch because you want the points and then unwatch afterwards.

 You'll get a number (+1) by commenting here. But, if you want extra numbers for a better chance of winning you can:

+1 - Fill in the entire form below
+1 - Spread the word about this give away with a journal etc

 Below is the form mentioned earlier:

New/Old watcher:
Why you want CORE membership:
Who you would gift the free CORE to: (You can note this if you'd prefer it was a surprise, just mention this when you fill in the form!)
Please link your favourite image from our galleries here: (You only need to link one image and can choose from my gallery, or 's for this )


Just so I know you've read everything, please include "Merry Christmas, Queen of Light!" in your comment. If this is missing, then you will not get any numbers!! (I also won't be reminding anyone this time!)

That's pretty much it! The closing date for this will be the around 29th of December, with the potential to be a little earlier depending on how much time I have. (The CORE offer ends on January 2nd, so I wanna give the winners plenty of time to use the points to extend their/the chosen person's CORE)

Thanks everyone, and the very best of luck!

I was gonna post this yesterday, but I don't really like April Fools so I decided to wait until today instead. I'll see that pear in my nightmares.

I just want to say thank you so so much to everyone who wished me a Happy Birthday back on March 29th! I really appreciate the comments, llamas, points and notes!

I even got some gifts from some beloved friends of mine! Seriously why are you guys so nice to me? My inactive butt doesn't deserve a thing but you took the time to make me gifts anyway. That means the world and I just have to feature them here!




Aren't they just beautiful? (The artist's AND the artwork! :heart)

I also want to thank for giving me an extra month of Core as well!

On another exciting note, in November I'm going to London with my brother to see the Distant Worlds Final Fantasy Concert! Guys I am CRAZY excited about this!

There's so much more I want to write here, my life has been changing quite significantly since the last journal I wrote. Unfortunately, due to work commitments and lack of energy, I get to spend less and less time here. I'm not leaving DA by any means, but for the foreseeable I'll only be able to show some activity on the weekends. My schedule has taken a real kick up the backside and my free time isn't what it used to be.

And this is why I've had to let these tags build up, darn me! Unfortunately, I've not been able to do all of them (Sorry Frozen! D: ) but I tried to do what I could with the time I have!

First up is a tag from

My Real Name: If you know it, great! Otherwise just call me LZ. Most people do anyway. <3

My Star/Zodiac sign: Aries

My Average hours of sleep: 8-ish (Cries in the distance)

My Last thing I googled: First4Figures, haha!

My Amount of Watchers: As I type this, 1600. And I love each and every one of you! I just hope this journal doesn't bore people and make them wanna unwatch me, aha.

What do I post: Usually either Zelda fan art (And a few other series sprinkled in here and there) or OC work. All of them are collabs with amazing people. <3

Do I run any blogs: Oof, no. I make the odd flutter over to tumblr, but just to post and run every now and then. DA is the closest thing to a blog I have.

Do I get a lot of comments: I wouldn't say a 'lot' because DA isn't as active as it used to be (Not sure if it's just me!). I mainly get fave and runs on old fan art in my inbox, haha. I do love to get comments though, I do my best to reply to every one!

Why I chose my username: I love Zelda. An old forum username I had was "Zelda of Hyrule", I added the Lady because it's a nice, elegant term that probably doesn't describe me in the slightest. (Except when you change it to lazy as I often do ) I'm rather attached to it, though.

-------

Here's a second tag from She asked me to do this with Noah:

Rules:
1.) Post the rules.
2.) Post 8 facts about your character.
3.) Tag 8 other characters.
4.) Post their names along with their creators'.

1 - I'm still working on this kiddo and I don't give him as much attention as I'd like, but he has connections to another character of mine, Aeron. I'm thinking they work in the fabric trade. Noah loves fabric, especially scarves?
2 - He's also VERY good friends with a certain Vincent.
3 - He's never seen without that necklace, it's extremely sentimental to him.
4 - Pre Carter, he didn't care much for girls and relationships. Or... anything, really. She really warmed his heart.
5 - Vincent, on the other hand, usually makes him want to bury his face in his hands. He tries to be the voice of reason, but the daredevil never listens. He keeps telling himself to give up, never does mind you.
6 - Did you knoooow he has a sister?
7 - Her name is Millie, he calls her Mils.
8 - While she drives him to distraction at times, he'd do anything for her. He just keeps that to himself. Don't tell her he said this, okay? ;D

------

And finally, another tag from

Rules:

1. You have to post all rules.
2. Each person has to share 13 things about themselves.
3. Answer all 13 questions asked and invent 13 questions the people you tag will have to answer.
4. Tag 13 people if you can.
5. Tag backs are allowed.
6. YOU MUST MAKE A JOURNAL ENTRY.

1. What’s your Nickname?
- Most people call me LZ.
2. Do you like girls or guys?
- Romantically, orrr...? If that's the question I like guys. Otherwise, girls and guys are BOTH awesome.
3. Who’s the last person you kissed?
- My dog, haha. If she doesn't count, then my Mom.
4. What do you like to draw/write?
- I don't draw myself but I LOVE thinking about OCs. I want to continue developing them how I can, but honestly I more tend to waffle about random scenarios that involve them. Ryuu can confirm this. Thinking about them helps to ease my stress.
5. Favorite music?
- I love video game music as well as Celtic and Fantasy based music. I get a lot of these sorts of recommendations on my phone, so it's difficult to narrow it down as I give them all a listen when I can
6. Favorite movie/game?
My favourite movie is Disney's animated Beauty and the Beast. My favourite game is Ocarina of Time.
7. Fantasy or Sci-fi?
- Fantasy. Not really all that big on Sci-Fi...
8. Favorite fantasy creature? (elves, aliens, etc.)
- Elves (I betcha didn't see THAT coming! ;D) and merman/mermaids!
9. Favorite real life animal?
- Dogs.
10. What’s the last dream you remember?
- I was dating Big Cass from the WWE. (???) My Brother and I were watching RAW late the night before, lmao.
11. What’s the last embarrassing thing you did?
- I decided it was a great idea to sneak an Eclair (You know, those toffee sweets with chocolate in the middle?) while I was working. But, I work in an office where the phone rings a lot. Of COURSE it rang and I sounded like Sean Connery because of the sweet in my trap. Luckily it was my work mate calling, but boy did she and my other colleague get a good laugh out of that. Never again!
12. Do you believe in God?
- This is... a difficult one. Moving on!
13. What’s your greatest wish right now?
- I wish I had more time to do the things I want to do. </3

I'm going to be a rebel and ignore alllll the rules that mention tags and whatnot. If you wanna nick these, then go ahead.

If you read even a FRACTION of this, thank you so much and I'm also sorry for wasting your time! I did my best to condense five months worth of inactivity into one journal. </3

Much love everyone, take care!

I know this is a little bit earlier than I planned, but it turns out I'm gonna have a crazy busy day tomorrow so I didn't want to leave this until then just in case I didn't have time to come on DA and miss the CORE offer!

But, the random number generator has spoken! The number I got was...



Number 11! , you're the winner! I'll be sending the points to you right away, so I hope you get good use out of them!

Thank you SO much to everyone who took part in mine and Ryuu's very first raffle! I'm sorry to those of you who missed out this time - I'd give you all prizes if I could! </3 - but please stay tuned! We might hold another give away like this some time soon!
