If this was round 1-3, I'd have to say it would be kind of rediculous, I agree. But because this is the last and final round and the pool of women is getting smaller every day, this didn't seem like such a proposterous request.
Well, let's just say this...
Would anyone else seriously want to have a Kirin girl as a waifu? If so, sorry Onime you can't have your waifu. Someone earlier (can't remember who) did say they were thinking about picking a Kirin, but didn't want to because they thought Waar wouldn't allow it. If anyone else is actually serious about wanting a Kirin, then no one should have one. :wink:
What does everyone else think about this? :lol:
That was me who thought about the Kirin girl but decided not to. Because she's a fan made character, not because Waar said no. She is one of hundreds of possible choices for the fifth and I don't mind if Onime have her as waifu that is if Waar give permission for it.

I never knew fan-made characters weren't allowed? No one said anything when Zak claimed Lam (a character that he made himself), so I figured it was ok. :roll: Onime doesn't seem to mind either way, so this doesn't really matter much anymore.

no, Zak's choice was a character that has had art and cartoons created, it's not simply a "character he created" it has canon law; i have seen no reason to allow kirin species as a whole to be chosen, nor the naming of a character which is simply named after the species; if he wants a specific one than that one should have a name and specific character people can identify. I'm going to read the doujins tonight or tomorrow. I'm not a fan of people deciding stuff while im away, and as much as you help this thread ken you must understand my feelings toward you deciding (even if only somewhat officially) are not positive ones.

not sure I understand, I've never seen monster hunter so is she a character or not? (the image isn't working for me)well, in monster hunter, there is no real "character", but due to the skimpiness of the kirin armor found in the game when you kill a kirin, it became rather famous =X and in the internet, there are alot of images of kirin girls and there are alot of hentai doujins of kirin girls too.
Well, a kirin girl isnt exactly a single specific character, but we generally group em as "kirin girl"
hopefully its acceptable (kirin girls dont exist anywhere else, its specific to monster hunter only, much like "dark magician girl" being specific to yu-gi-oh only)
dark magician girl is an actual card though, you're basically asking me to let you wed a species... I don't think I can allow that.

I see Waar's point on the matter of the Kirin. In order to be clear on this matter I looked up the description of a Kirin which is a translation from Qilin to Japanese and Korean.
Qilin from Wikipedia:
In a nutshell, Kirin is a mythical creature based off of a giraffe thought up by the Chinese. No mention of it having human features.
Picture of a Kirin:
If we are to argue that if lamias are okay while the kirin is not, it seems unfair, but lamias have human features while the kirin does not. Some may argue the kirin can turn into humans. In the descriptions I've read there were no mention of it turning into a human and if we allow this, that would mean anyone would be able to claim any animal or mythical beasts to be the waifus of a said fakku member.
Now that being said, I also see the point of the other members fighting for the right of the kirin being a canidate for a waifu since Horo, who is a wolf and can turn into a human (I've heard of stories of kirin turning into human) is a waifu.
But in the end, I have to say Horo is a special case and is a specific charcter. Unless the said member names a specific character, I don't think it should be allowed since anyone can waltz in and say "Hey I want a unicorn to be my waifu (just named any mythical beast off the top of my head)" which in the end just doesn't sit right with me.
That's my two cents but it's not word.
Qilin from Wikipedia:
The earliest references to the Qilin are in the 5th century BC book Zuo Zhuan. The Qilin made appearances in a variety of subsequent Chinese works of history and fiction. At one point, however, it became identified with the giraffe, and even today, the giraffe is called a "kirin" in Korean and Japanese.
The Qilin became a stylised representation of the giraffe in Ming dynasty. It is known that on Zheng He's voyage to East Africa (landing, among other places, in modern-day Kenya), the fleet brought back two giraffes to Beijing. It is also known that these two giraffes were referred to as "Qilins". The Emperor proclaimed the giraffes magical creatures, whose capture signalled the greatness of his power.
The identification between the Qilin and the giraffe is supported by some attributes of the Qilin, including its vegetarian and quiet nature. Its reputed ability to "walk on grass without disturbing it" may be related to the giraffe's long legs. Also the Qilin is described as having antlers like a deer and scales like a dragon or fish; since the giraffe has horn-like "ossicones" on its head and a tessellated coat pattern that looks like scales it is easy to draw an analogy between the two creatures.
It is unlikely that giraffes and qilin were regarded as the same creature in pre-modern times however. For example, typical depictions of the qilin have much shorter necks than giraffes. However, the Chinese character 麒 and 麟 both carry Chinese radical 鹿, suggesting that it was originally a type of deer, or perhaps an antelope.

Errr~.. ah?... what?..what are you talkin about PD?.. I don't see the point of googling Kirin in this matter...lol
getting out topic here, but Kirin is also the name of one of Japanese Guardians.. Genbu (North), Seiryu (East), Suzaku (South), Byakko (West), and Kirin (Center)...

I googled it because:
Firstly, I have too much time on my hands. XD
Secondly, I wanted to see a close on this matter (though it seemed as if it was going to end soon if not already over) and I just came up with an argument that my sway people's judgement to maybe get this over quicker. So I found out what a kirin was (I might not have the same thing as what onime might have been talking about but Monster Hunter Kirin results brough up the normal kirin so I assume I'm correct >_>) and looked up kirin to make sure it didn't have any human features since if it did, I would have been okay with it since lamia was accepted for Zak. >_>
Also, in an these situations, it's so much cooler to have a quoted source. :P

Yea Waar your decision won't be frowned upon by anyone since Onime seemed to be cool with it either way. I was also unaware that Zak's waifu had any of art other than his avatar. :roll:

Actually, the "Kirin girl" of monster hunter is completely unrelated to a kirin of Japanese Mythology or Qilin of Chinese Mythology. Qilins are not based on giraffes too, it just so happens that at one point in time, they were mistakenly identified as giraffes, and to this day, Japanese and Koreans consider giraffes as "Qilins" and not the other way round =X
The Qilin is said to appear in places of a benevolent ruler (Even if the ruler rules only a house), and is a highly peaceful creature but can be extremely aggressive/dangerous when someone of a pure heart is threatened by a sinner.
The Qilin is known as the protector of the earth, which is placed in the centre of the chinese constellations, which is also ranked the highest of the 4 other constellations (Azure Dragon of the East; Black Tortoise of the North; White Tiger of the West; and the Vermillion Bird of the South).
This is one of the few depictions of a Qilin:
In monster hunter, on the other hand, a Kirin is an Elder Dragon that is close to the brink of extinction and is very rare. I'm not sure if it is to be depicted like that of a traditional chinese Qilin but there are no indications of it so far other than it's name and looks:
With that said, Kirin girls on the other hand, are not kirins. They have no relation to kirins nor do they have any form of kirin blood running through their veins. A kirin girl is essentially a hunter who has slain a couple of kirins, carved their hides and created armor out of kirin materials. This results into the kirin armor.
Kirin girls are human in essence.
oh and also, +rep to k3npach1 which i didnt manage to give yest coz it was under CD

yeah sorry man, I really cant allow it; as it seems we're going around in circles on the matter. Nothing you said really convinced me thought you were close with the doujin stuff; but the fact that the doujin could have any Kirin in it and they would all be named the same way and considered the same character just pushed me over on the side of ruling against it. I guess my only real advice is to look for a another girl with a recognizable character and name so we don't get caught in the "can I pick this thing" debate.
