Welcome!
Make a Character!



This is a contest where I want you to write a character description for a person I have drawed.
I'll write a character form, and then it's up to you to fill it. It's a plus if you make the page neat looking too, like using dividers and whatnot. Simple enough? Good! Get started!
And send blissful gratitude to [spincrus] for the idea, which I stole when Spin got drunk! ;)

RuleS!



We don't need no stinking Rules! Okay.. a few..
 1: It must be your own work, of course. If you copy/pasted it, you are in trouble.
 2: The description should fit in on the image.. if I draw a human and your character is a vampire, you're in trouble.
 3: Be unique! If you're like everybody else..well I can't do much about it, but it's boring..O_o
 4: If you bitch in the commentbox, you are in trouble.
 5: You can have a placeholder, but it will be removed when the free spots are taken if you havn't made the character yet.
 6: Tho it's always good with a detailed and long description (it is!)..I do want to be able to read it and remember it. If it is too long I'll just not read through it and then you won't win:P (too long: 3 word pages.. that's just too much) So keep it reasonable.
 7: I'm a bitch and I'll disqualify you if I feel like it :P And you're not allowed to complain. If you do..well you're already disqualified..



I judge the characters based on:

How well the description fits with the picture.
How interesting it is to read.
How original the character feels, and how realistic.
Page layout.

2006-08-22 [Shadow-ofDeath]: Can't wait, I hope to get my spot when I can!

2006-08-22 [Zab]: Yay! :P I'll probably make the image tomorrow :)

2006-08-22 [Shadow-ofDeath]: Goody, I hope to create something interesting for a character.

2006-08-22 [spincrus]: abhab... bahlhe? ahedahe.. ===> (You have just witnessed [spincrus]' drunk mind speaking)

2006-08-22 [Stephen]: :O
AWESOME!

2006-08-22 [Shadow-ofDeath]: I am truly amazed! I may never be the same again...

2006-08-22 [Zab]: I hope I can create an inspiring image...x) Any ideas for poses to let him/her stand in?(and no sex, drunk one!)

2006-08-22 [Shadow-ofDeath]: Would fornication be considered sex? (Oh, please shoot me!) Let's see... If you want to create a character that could qualify for anything, let's put it in simple terms:
1) NO HEAVY ARMOR! Light or no armor, heavy armor takes away freedom by making him a fighter.
2) No flashy effects, makes him look like a magic user.
3) For a pose? Blank face, possibly even puzzled/inquisitive, looking over the horizon. This makes it possible to be good, evil, neutral, leaving it up to the imagination.

2006-08-22 [Zab]: I don't like drawing armour, so don't worry:P But he/she will have some kind of facial expression..>_> I'll try to make it neutral tho.. And I won't color it, so there won't be flashy effects. (it's up to you to decide his/hers color on clothes, hair skin etc :P)

2006-08-22 [Zab]: But body pose os more what I think of.. it's so boring to just draw them standing..

2006-08-22 [Stephen]: Sex sounds interesting. ;)

Sheesh, that's so typical, it's possible to make a magic user wearing armor, or a figher looking flashy. :P
Facial expressions can be consirded that person is happy/mad/sad/ect, so those don't mean their alignment. ;)

2006-08-22 [Shadow-ofDeath]: Crap, I'm on a roll... Perhaps the character could be pointing at something with one hand, and hand held over the face with the other (imagine someone scratching the sides of their mustache with their forefinger and thumb, other three fingers curled below... of course, no mustache needed to do this). Wilderness seems to make for the best thing, making you wonder if he is just outside a city and is looking at something interesting, has lived with a tribe outside for all his life and is hunting, or is travelling away from home and has spotted a city.

2006-08-22 [Zab]: hehe..I'll note that:P

2006-08-22 [Shadow-ofDeath]: Most of this is the DM in me coming out. Cloth doesn't give anything away about a character, the same with some light armor (to a certain extent). Characters in heavy armor are often battle-ready fighters (whether magical or physical) who are in the brunt of battle, limiting the choices. Simple cloth can be anything from an aged wizard to a simple commoner.

2006-08-22 [Zab]: Don't worry about the clothes, they usually come naturally :P
(and have you seen any single ones of my drawings with a heavy armour? >_>)

2006-08-22 [Zab]: Actually..I think I know what to draw:P

2006-08-22 [Shadow-ofDeath]: There we go. Can't wait to see it!

2006-08-22 [Zab]: Mwahaha! You have to wait untill tomorrow anyway, I'm too tired to trust my judgement:P

2006-08-22 [Shadow-ofDeath]: *groan*

2006-08-22 [Shadow-ofDeath]: ... Smexy is good.

2006-08-22 [Zab]: x)

2006-08-22 [Stephen]: If it's smexy, it doesn't need clothing! :D

2006-08-22 [Zab]: He shalt be clothed!

2006-08-22 [Stephen]: He shant be clothed! Clothing ish evil!! On smexy peoples anyway. ;)

2006-08-22 [spincrus]: If the character turns out to be a "him", PLEASE let him be clothed. I don't mind it if it's a her though :P (j/k)

2006-08-22 [Zab]: you're drunk! XD

2006-08-22 [Stephen]: Well, I tend to say the exact opposite! (j/k, as well.)

2006-08-22 [spincrus]: You have noooooo idea :)

2006-08-22 [Zab]: meh:P

2006-08-23 [Zab]: Soon done..

2006-08-23 [spincrus]: Don't rush yourself by the way :D

2006-08-23 [Zab]: A bit late, is it? :P

2006-08-23 [spincrus]: Well then rush yourself :P It's YOU who'll tire yourself out, not me :D

2006-08-23 [Zab]: XD!

2006-08-23 [pixish]: *waits for more examples ^^*

2006-08-23 [Zab]: *lmao* Be original! XD *huggles* Gonna join?

2006-08-23 [pixish]: I think about it, but I haven't really done these character thingies before :p So I just wanted to see how it is done a little more first so I do it right :o!

2006-08-23 [Zab]: I doubt you can do it wrong..XD
My characters: Rera, .Dean., Dravel, Chacix, leva and uhm..I have a ton more that I can't really remember the link to right now..XD
Write like them but use the character form on this page, and do it a bit longer than mine..x)

2006-08-23 [pixish]: Well I am a bit shoopid you know ;p
*studies*!

2006-08-23 [Zab]: You're not! x)
Whee! *shows off all my characters* .. and they're all about 20, goodlooking and nice..x) I don't write enough when I make characters.. ;__; And I do play bad guys too but I don't always make a charactersheet for them..XD

2006-08-23 [pixish]: aws :p goodlooking and nice is very important ;p
Well you create your characters too :p You know everything about them anyway, you don't need to write it all down do you? :o

2006-08-23 [Zab]: x)
Yes..but it's for all the others who wants to know what that idiot standing in front of them when theyre all alone on a cliff is..x)
Normally I just make a name and starts playing, then when I know what personality he/she has I make the character..after some months sometimes..XD Dean is one of those:P

2006-08-23 [pixish]: he has no picture ;_;

2006-08-23 [Zab]: No.. that's the problem with making the character first..>___> I havn't been able to draw a satisfying picture of him..Oo

2006-08-23 [Deadlock jester]: hmh..seems like I'll have to get involved :p

2006-08-23 [Zab]: yay! :P

2006-08-23 [Zab]: *lmao!

2006-08-23 [Athilea]: Is this going to be an ongoing month to month type contest?

2006-08-23 [Zab]: I don't know, but if it get's many participants I might do it again :P

2006-08-23 [Shadow-ofDeath]: Here we go!

2006-08-23 [Zab]: Hehe:P *is watching placeholders* ;)

2006-08-23 [Shadow-ofDeath]: ! I finished it... then got an error. Good thing I copied most of it, so I will redo the last bits of it.
