I will be giving a ce prize to the knight who can write the most BEST, CREATIVE, and REALISTIC. No can't use the link on Deviantart or that kind of thing.

I want you to make a Blue Lichen.

The cathc is it can't look exactly like a normal lichen with blue colored in. It has to be different. I will tell if it counts.

BEST:
1.

CREATIVE:
1.
2.
3.

REALISTIC:
1.
2.
3.

Wondering why a Blue Lichen? One day on a KoA mission, I was near the bottom of the first depth. All of the sudden, my friends at the top of the screen say they saw a jelly. It was blue with spikes. A lichen.

Hmmm... Is this an art

Hmmm... Is this an art contest or a writing contest? It kinda sounds like you are hosting a writing contest from the initial description.
What they probably saw was a Soul Jelly. I saw one spawn there once too.

Either that or it was a Sloom, but they have been removed from the game and could only spawn in monster boxes before their removal.

If it is an art contest, I'll try my best to create a blue lichen... but making it so it cant just be a blue lichen (which slooms resemble) narrows your options down a bit. I guess I could just try to be especially creative or something.

It is art. Theres two major differences with that jelly Zack: It was dark blie and had bigger spikes.
Another thing to clear up is I didnt see it.

Er...

Sure, I'll take a shot.
Can't say when I'll have it done, but still.
Could the Jelly have been a Sloom?

Also, Are we allowed to submit multiple entries to get more CE?
:P

I have found out that it was a tier 3 Sloom! Since I cant have you guys copy that, amuse me by making your own blue jelly lichens. Impress me!

I honestly have my doubts it

I honestly have my doubts it was a Sloom. In fact, the developers themselves stated that they removed the Sloom and Sloombargo from the game. Furthermore, like I said in my first post, that Slooms were only available from monster boxes after they removed the Starlight Cradle levels from beta.

Ah well... I guess it could have been a glitch or something, or the wiki is wrong.
I don't want to argue this with you nor lay blame on your friends. I'll try to submit something in the next few days.

My Entry

I went for a more creative approach. I imagine it to be a strange cross between a lichen and a polyp, which spawns smaller lichens continuously but still can shoot spines at you like a polyp can, or something like that.

Contest?

Is the contest still going? I have a good idea but if the contest is over I won't spend the time to draw it out.
