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.

Deadline: -

CLOSED

Winners!
[Barock] and [Amarantha]!

Prizes!

So you want prizyness as well? Arn't you a greedy one? Well.. how about this:
A nice little badge for everyone and the winner gets my colored image, made for this contest, to have on his or hers character description? Well, that's how it will be, like it or not:P

That's right, this is who I want you to make a character of!
Only the winner may use the colored version!
Otherwise it's not much for a prize:P

2006-12-27 [Amarantha]: Oh well. *sad, but accepting*

However, I may be tempted to draw one to make up for the lack here... are you willing to take responsiblity for the infliction of my artistic skills on the Elftown public? *laughs*

2006-12-27 [Elodicressida]: The scary part is Ammy's drawing skills... and mine. ^.^

2006-12-27 [Amarantha]: I'm getting better! I'm not dead yet!

2006-12-27 [Elodicressida]: Oh, yes you are. Get in the cart.

2006-12-27 [Amarantha]: No! I don't want to!
