Here comes Secret Satan 2019, for @drowcember !
And this is the third edition of this event. This is the third time I’m organizing the Drowcember Secret Satan, an exchange of art focused on drow / dark elven characters! The rules and description are the same as last year’s, so here is the whole thing:
I’ll be using one webpage that will randomize the list of participants and send everyone their chosen Secret Santa to the mail, without anybody knowing (including me). The webpage is in Spanish, but it’s the one that works better for it. I’ve used it for two years now. It allows re-sending mails for those that didn’t get it for any reason, so it’s very useful!)
The inscriptions will be open until 30 of November. After that the mails will get sent, and I will ask everyone if they got it. I’ll be using a spreadsheet which I’ll send you once you get in (Similar to other year’s), to keep control of the confirmations on getting the mail. After that, we’ll have time until 28 of December to draw the gift. Tag it as #drowsecretsatan2019 so I can see it, or PM it to me! Or just @’ me, if needed.
How will we know what to draw?
Each participant will need to give me a reference pic of their characters and the name of such character through PM/DM. You can also send it to me in Discord (I’m Sygdom #9379). I will post the link on the spreadsheet, so their Secret Satan can easily access it. I’d recommend giving 2 or 3 options so there’s more of a choice for your Secret Satan to draw. The only exception to this would be if someone only has one drow OC.
What are the requirements?
To have a drow OC and draw! You’ll need to be able to provide a picture that can serve as a reference for your character. Text descriptions aren’t valid. And the sent drawings should be finished pictures, not sketches! (Fully colored). I’d recommend to keep it at one character per picture, but if someone feels like drawing two (if they have two submitted characters) that would also be ok!
The pictures should be posted on 28 of December, not before. If someone has an issue posting it said day, I’d recommend telling me beforehand and submitting it before. If someone doesn’t do their picture, they will be banned from future Secret Satans. (If someone is left without a picture, I will be their Surrogate Satan, and will make the picture for them instead)
Also, since this was asked: All must be Safe For Work. There is no minimum age, so keep it family friendly please!
To make it as non-exclusive as possible, we’ll have a rather wide definition of what is a drow. That will include D&D drows, Drowtales’ drows, dunmers, nightbornes, duskwights, half drows and anything resembling a drow/based in a drow from original settings. (Aka dark skin + pointy ears, at least. If you have a doubt on if they count as such ask me!)
To join, just send me a Private Message on tumblr, twitter, Instagram or Discord. Reblogs are greatly appreciated! You will need to give me your mail (even if it’s a temporary one if you don’t feel comfortable giving your main mail, I will tell you when to check it), and 1, 2 or 3 character references (as a link) + their name to put in the spreadsheet. That’s it!
This year ,unlike the last two editions, I’m doing this event on Twitter and Instagram too, but I’ll make sure to keep you all connected. I’ll need you to provide me a link to your social media so whoever is gifting to you can check your page if needed. You can give only one or all three!

Feel free to ask any questions if you have doubts through PM, Discord or asks. Don’t be afraid to join, the idea of this event is to have fun and get together the drow community. Last year we had 24 participants and worked very smoothly!
