   Intrepid Owlet

This card can attack your opponent directly. If this card
inflicts battle damage to your opponent by a direct attack:
Double its ATK and increase its Level by 1. When this card
is targeted by an opponent's card effects: You can pay LP
equal to this card's ATK; return this card to your hand.

 

~~~~~

 

I've always found owls to be incredibly adorable, so when I first read
the rules for this contest my automatic reaction was to start searching
for pics of cute owlets. And when I found this little buddy in DeviantArt,
I immediately had the idea of a daring monster which would attack
the opponent directly, but as soon as there was any sign of trouble,
it would swiftly run away and hide in the player's hand.

 

Hope you people like it :)

Oh hey second place.... lol yet another second place, but this time it's out of 8. This is the fourth contest I enter and get exactly second place, what are the odds XD

Not that I'm complaining.

 

No real questions about the judging , but those are some high scores right there o.o  .

 

Some author comments on my card, since it's after judging: 

[spoiler=comments]

The pun is on the Ashikaga Shogunate , which ruled just before that infamous Sengoku Era. Ashikaga + girl = Ashikagaaru / Ashikagirl .

So yeah, I tried aiming for some samurai-like traits with each of the effects - special summoning herself before opposition is like 'taking the challenge' and 'intimidation of an army staring you down' , the ATK gain effect is like 'cover fire' (There's an actual trap with that name and a similar effect to this, but who needs a trap card for that, amirite.) .

 

In some prototype before what was actually submitted, she was level 3, and she had quite a long effect - the differences being that she'd SS herself in response to an opponent special summon instead of just the opponent -having- the monster on the board,  and she had another effect which SS'd a 'Flower Storm Token', level 1 tuner token which couldn't be destroyed by battle ( I was imagining a sakura petal mini-whirlwind for that one, any attacks just going right through it, doing nothing ) . It'd go with the lore with Ashikaga, but it was dropped, no need for overkill effects.

Also I thought of making her EARTH attribute, but kept her as WIND, as a nod to Mist Valley Soldier , the level 4 tuner with 1700 ATK and.... not quite 1000 DEF, it had 300 DEF, but whatever.
