triwizard tournament: the second task
The original Triwizard Tournament tasks were inspired by the nature's four elements and so will be ours.
For the Second Task Champions assembled on the shore of the lake, and were told that they had one hour to retrieve that which had been stolen from them from the merpeople's village, and return. The Lake represents the Water element.
i. WATER
blue, waterscape, wavy, blurry, washed out colors, lighting

ii. THE FRIEND
it turned out that a person who was dear and very important to each of the Champions was that 'something' that was stolen from them. so which of the Harry Potter characters would have been taken underwater if you were a Champion? it can be someone who could be your best friend, your soulmate, a love interest or maybe someone who inspires you and who you look up to. you task is simply to make an icon of such character. he/she doesn't have to be connected with your alias, it's your choice.
special category: best coloring
this Task is a bit shorter (5 days) but you have to submit only two icons so I hope that's ok. I'm doing it to even out the final task.
++THE PREPARATION
for one of the parts of the Third task I need you to submit ONE SCREENCAP. it can be any movie, any scene, any character etc you like. I only ask that it's as HQ as possible.

ps: you don't get points for submitting a cap but if you don't submit it, you won't be able to enter one of the parts of the Third Task (and hence won't earn points then) so please, do!
you can submit the cap any time before the Third task is posted, it doesn't matter if you have entered icons for First/Second task or not
[ϟ the rules ϟ]ϟ each Champion is supposed to stand alone during the Tournament, receiving no outside help from anyone.
ϟ you can enter 1 icon for each part of the task, 2 icons max. in total. you can choose to enter only one icon or two. mind that you get points for entering icons!
ϟ submit your icon(s) + their direct urls in a comment to this post. NOTE: since lj has a very strange anti-spam policy right now, you can submit urls with spaces if you're worried about getting suspended.
ϟ do NOT post icons made for the Tournament anywhere until it has finished and do NOT reveal your username/alias.
ϟ deadline: FRIDAY JUNE 28 (COUNTDOWN)
