    Kially Challenge One - The Haiku! The winners are in!

    Alrighty! Winners are in!

    I've decided upon three winners, each for a specific category.

    Parody: Tristam, for taking upon my enthusiasm to help people get Haiku'ing right.
    Comedy: Fauna, for her rather amusing Haiku about her ample bosoms.
    Serious: BlackAndBlueEyes for beautifully capturing a moment in the true essence of a Haiku without violence.

    Congratulations to the winners!

    Hey there, I'm Kially (Or Danny, if you want my real name!) I'll be one of your event coordinators for the duration of this competition! If you have any questions or issues, feel free to contact myself or any one of our excellent staff members here!

    ____

    The event I've prepared for you lucky lads and lasses is the following:

    Write a Haiku either describing or about your character!

    The reward for the winner is 1 Fate Point! I'll be judging this and selecting my favorite as the winner.

    A haiku, for those whom are not familiar, is an Asian form of poem or lyric
    formed by a total of 17 syllables, built together in the form of 5-7-5.

    I have provided my own example as follows:
    ______

    Tasty dragon snack
    small sweet delicious and moist
    crunchy crunchy crunch
    ______

    To better illustrate the form of a Haiku, I have broken it down into a simplified form.
    With each syllable separated in a word by a hyphen.

    Ta-sty dra-gon snack (5)
    small sweet de-lic-ious and moist (7)
    crunch-y crunch-y crunch (5)

    Haikus' do not have to have punctuation, it is the choice of the writer and his or her personal opinion whether such is required!


    Out of Character:

    I submit here, yes? Alright, I'm terrible at poetry but here it goes:

    Goblin Lice Grumalth
    He'll make you want to say "Arrgh,
    arrgh, please no stop please"
    This one is a bit of self-mockery for having such an absurd dichotomous character...

    You can probably just ignore my submissions since I'm going to change it thousands of time, no doubt ^^
