This show is specifically dedicated to the "Valentine' Day" and "The Dogfather" topics and to France, so feel free to be creative!
Please note!
This show recommends a special dress code but doesn't make it obligatory! You may have a part of the "Valentine' Day" and "The Dogfather" in your clothing (e.g. symbols of the countries of the show, the traditional dress, mood, etc).
As well, it can be present on the dog for higher points.
Our show welcomes Adult dogs and Puppies too! Collabs are extremely welcome!
Ready for some action?
For all you party lovers out there, we are combining two of our big shows!
Be warned! This is a linked show!
In the history of DARPG this seems to be happening for the first time, so we will explain how it works:
Option 1. You can only attend one show of your choice.
Option 2. You enter both shows and get extra points for both! If you enter both shows, you can also get France GCh if you win France Ch in both shows.
By giving the Valentine's heart under the favourite entry of another person, which will give +1 point to their entry total points.
By having the pet dogs try to convince the Mafia Dogs that they're not brainwashed or anything and that being a pet can be very nice. It will give a +1 point to that dog's entry if you manage to depict it.
By having the dogs spread the love by cuddling up to Mafia Dogs, sharing food and toys, asking to play with them, and showing them nice things which will give +1 point to that dog's entry.
How to use the Valentine's Heart gift?
The Valentine's Heart is a gift that can be given to a dog whose entry you like the most. It gives a +1 point to that dog's entry.
You can only give this gift to both Mafia and Valentine entries if you participate in either or both shows.
There is no limit to the number of Valentine's gifts a player can give, so there is no limit to the number of entries you can be involved with. One heart gift per entry.
To give the heart, simply comment on the person's entry with the heart. Copy the link and paste it as a comment below their entry form.
Mafia Lore
Zhakh, Baskerville Hound, a retired military dog, is now the leader of a gang of stray dogs that roam the streets. He is a very strong and intelligent dog and uses his skills to intimidate and control the other dogs. He is very territorial and will not hesitate to attack anyone he feels is a threat to his pack.
Here are some ideas for NPCs that could be part of Zhakh's gang:
A German Shepherd named Brutus is Zhakh's second in command. He is a fierce and loyal dog, always ready to fight for his leader.
A Rottweiler called Razor is the muscle of the gang. He is a large and imposing dog who is not afraid to use his strength to intimidate others.
A Bulldog called Tank is the enforcer of the gang. He is a vicious dog who will not hesitate to hurt anyone who gets in his way.
NPCs are the most important part of Zhakh's gang. With their strength, intelligence and loyalty, they are a force to be reckoned with.

Purpose and prompts for the entries

For this activity, you can choose a discipline that requires running, tracking, chasing etc, choose the level, and include the story, e.g.
Single show prompts
Use your imagination! You can easily incorporate both themes (Valentine's Day and Mafia) into your entry by incorporating the theme elements.
