Thanks for the welcome! I always have ideas [how about this dragon was promised to this one but falls in love with another but the other dragon gets exalted] but they never really form together to make such lovely bios such as the ones you have! I didn't have time to read them all [homework and family stuff] but I made a point to read as many as possible [including Apophis, which is definitely not the story to go to bed on.] and I enjoyed all of them! I love the backstory and fleshing out it gives to them and how well you do it with unique story ideas! I hope when I have more time I'll be able to finish the rest!
[Also, no bonus points for me. The names sound vaguely familiar but I wouldn't be able to come close to their origin if I tried. The only one I recognized was Dionysus.]

Thanks for the welcome! And the pillow and hot cocoa!
I've so far won three of the contests, but the first one was way back in sixth grade and was only twelve pages so that doesn't count. The first of the other two was called "Athena's Untold Story", which was my first project to go over a hundred pages [It's not much but I'll take it]. I'd say it was about 'dogs' and leave it there, but I know from experience that apparently this isn't exactly what people are looking for, so I'll try to describe it without giving away crucial plot details.
It started as a backstory to fill in a year missing in a character's bio, but it came out to much more. Part One, Untold, is the story of the year, while part two, Redemption, deals with an 'infestation' of rabid dogs. It... it's better if you read it trust me. It's got conflict and secrets and a character that speaks in riddles and epic battles and death and love and rejection and all that good stuff.
The most recent book was "The Seventh Moon's Rise". This one wasn't as long, at only about seventy pages, but the plot was pretty epic in my opinion. Basically it deals with these fantasy wolf packs who are battling another outside pack known as 'Hostiles'. The Chosen One, a wolf destined to lead the packs to war and guarantee their victory has been chosen, but something went wrong during this choosing, and instead of one, there are two chosen wolves, and the prophecy has changed. The Second will kill the True on the Seventh Moon's Rise.
It's a tale of deception, epic powers, war, death, and stubbornness. All the good stuff.
On the subject of books, I mostly just don't read nonfiction. The rest is up for grabs. Of course I love all the Hunger Games, Eragon, Warrior Cats, and Divergent series but at this point that's mostly expected, so I'll say some other books that you guys
might(?) not know.
Modelland,
Fat Chance,
Virals, the
Unicorns of Balinor series [they're made for younger audiences but I still like them.],
Dead By Morning,
Flying Changes,
Born to Die (I think that's the title? I'll have to check.) and then a bunch of books by Dean Koontz like
House of Thunder, and I think the one was '
Midnight'?
The Husband was also good. [Warning, some of these may contain *coughcoughsuggestiveeyebrows*
scenes. I have a remarkable affinity for being able to not remember those things so I don't know where they are. I don't think there's any in those ones, but I know Midnight is a little disturbing to some people.
Darkness my Old Friend is a good one too. That one is the one I finished most recently, and I really enjoyed it despite certain questionable behaviors of the main three teenagers.
And I think... I think that's it.
