Come one, come all; from every area of MotK! Come feast your eyes on the historical story of the Mascots of MotK!

On the 11th of June, 2011 (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,9822.0.html), a contest was held to design a personification of the Servers of MotK. They were :
- Triela, the forum's main server
- Henrietta, MotK's game-server
- Angelica, TSO's very own test server
The contest saw many artists gather to create their version of the characters, and in the end, they were given life!
But that wasn't the end of it. On September the 15th, 2011 (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,10819.0.html), it was time to give them a character sheet each; expanding the characters out that little bit more. Whilst this was successful as well, the resulting sheets were never talked about again... and in time, people began to forget all about it.
Until now.
For you see, today is the 17th of July. And on this day, TSO has no idea that something like this is about to happen... until she stumbles into the thread of course. :V
And we are going to give her as big of a surprise as we can; by bringing these back and seeing how many of you are willing to take part in this very special art request. You can do whatever you want! Have all three in one picture, just draw 1 of them, have them fighting, have them doing any activity (nothing NSFW, people), dress them in their main attires, dress them in attires that match their personality and/or base colour, vertical pictures, horizontal pictures, banners, 4komas, anything you can think of! There is no end to it.
I know the Weekly Art Social is currently in its voting phase, and will likely kick back up once they have got a 'winner' declared; hence why I'm labelling this as a request. If someone wants to go 'hey, let's have this as the weekly thing' then I won't shoo them away. But take this as me asking you all if you would like to draw the 3 mascots; and not me forcing it on you. ^^
The character sheets that Formless did are on the September link (towards the bottom), and each of the threads have descriptions about the characters in general, if you desire more information about them. We'll make things easier for you by providing the sheets on this post; thanks to Sakana. This will likely go on for a week anyway; Actually, it'll be running until the 31st of July due to needed extensions. Purvis, being Purvis, has hinted at a possible treat or two; so take that for what you will. :derp:

2 years she has waited... we all have... I think it's time to treat not just her, but the rest of MotK as well.
Because I just know... this is a project we can all be proud of.
Sounds like fun. Count me in!
Just FYI, the way Guilty Alice works - if another art event comes up, it'll pause. So after the winner's declared, we'll go on hiatus until this ends.
That being said, does this have an end date?
weird i thought the GA participants got to decide whether they were fine with postpones due to other art events but considering you're turning out to be the winner and has the say for the week's theme
okay :derp:
e: i can't access this one (http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/8202/19248379.png) the other two work fine

eurrgh I didn't put it in the rules
Since Freeze-Ex's contest was in the middle of the round, I just used a super extend instead, but yeah GA is supposed to pause for pretty much any art event
The first time I asked if people were okay with it, I was talking about the pausing rule as a whole. I could've done better with the wording, I guess :/
Also, many thanks for that. Didn't mean to trouble anyone by putting this alongside the social.
No trouble at all! We have GA every week anyway.
I intended for GA to be a low priority thing, just for people to, you know, art together as leisure or something. Keep those drawing hands from getting stiff?
