@Light AVatar: Thanks for the info. Also, for your criticism towards criticism given here: I, at least, am judging the final faction, not the wip-one or comments given on it^^ To be precise, of course this thread IS a place for criticism and I don't think that a comment like "you should rewrite this or that" influences me much, especially in comparison to how something IS written in the final version.  Also, everybody has the RIGHT to post their opinion here, it influencing the judges or not, as long as they follow HC's rules. You cannot forbid that, I think, as long as what they do is reasonable and not purely offensive and attacking!
EDIT: I had forgotten to comment and ask a bit about the creatures, mainly the abilities^^
First commenting:
I do like the ideas so far, especially that spirits. I am looking forward as how you finish the core lineup and what the elites will be. Will there be a ranged core, btw?
Now my questions:
First, is the "status"-paragraph in acreas description meant to describe the creatures ingame abilities, stats and so on? If so, I personally would prefer it a bit more precise and clear in the final version, preferably (but not necessarily, if you do not like it!) with ability names and clearly showing which description is for the basic and which for the upgraded unit.
Second, the questions on the Prayer/Slave status paragraph.
-Is that melody for both creatures or only the moon slaves (as you state only them)?And how exactly does it work being "healing and catastrophic"? Can they attack friendly creatures with their attack healing instead of damaging? Or do they have a healing active or passive ability? If they attack by a song is that meant to be ranged? Is that song their standard attack, anyway, or a special ability?
-The "ravaging dead creatures" ability - or "internal force", which sounds like a very cool ability name imo! - when and how exactly does it work? I understand it damages undead creatures. The question that pops into my mind is: when? When they enter the square adjacent to this unit? When they melee-attack this unit? When this unit melee-attacks them? At all of these occasions? It would be really good to know this, because it can mean a completely different style of unit.
And now to the cutie-wolves 
-again: do the abilities aplly to both unupgraded and upgraded crea?
-How does them being cute and only striking when they come near take effec tin the game?
-It attacks to defend Shantiri allies...only against melee attacks I suppose?
So, I am looking forward to your answers!

@faunch
I am not very good in english at all...I'm 15!
And in greece we haven't for national tongue the english!
@Jiriki9
There is a range attack unit,Yuki lova!
Answers:
1)Of course the status paragraph will be developed and soon there will be clearly their abilities!
2)The statues paragraph refers and for the non upgrade unit!But some abilities are available only for the upgraded version!Their healthy/destructive song it's like sister's in heroes VI!Can heal the friendly units but can destroy from the asside the enemies!Their normal attack is also their song of sins but next of the enemy!
3)The dead abillity is still in progress...
4)I answered you
5)They are so cute and beauty that the enemy don't afraid and come near!But then the hidden choad open his mouth and bye,bye enmey!
6)When he is next/near to a friendly unit and this unit is being attacked he is coming in front of the friendly unit and deal the damage!
So I am looking forward for more questions

Ah, I waited for the answers! Thanks, these make quite some things clearer to me.
Now, the point you listed under 5) is still unclear to me...is it an active ability drawing the enemy near? Or is it passivee, preventing the enemy from attacking (and still perform a retaliation)? Or does it take retaliation away? All these wozuld seem fit to me, but make quite a different creature, especially it would be a big difference in terms of defensive/offensive unit.

Let's take an example then
Moon slave is in the midle of the batlefield and the hidden chaos near of her!When a tormentor will come and attack to the moon slave,before he will attacks the hidden chaos will run go in front of moon slave,he will attack to the tormentor and then the tormentor finally will do his attack!I hope you understood!
And I will predict a question:Yuki lova don't prevent the friendly creatures 100% of water magic,only 50% and makes the spells weaker...!
