The Make-A-Character-For-A-Person-Suffering-From-Writer's-Block Contest!(The Contest is quite a Mouthful, isn't it)
Ends June 10th
Early ending: June 31st (Today!)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hey, guys. I’m writing a book, not giving the name yet (Mostly because it has to be given a name as well), and I’m hopelessly failing at making characters!
The story is about a pack of wolves in the wild. That’s the only information I can give out so far.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So,basically, I need:
-The name and description of your character
-The history and rank your character is
-The pack he/she is in, or if he/she is a loner
AND
-Anything else I put on the form that is not optional.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Contest Rules:
*You MUST PM me! I don't want any copiers!
*No inappropriate characters.
*Follow the forum Rules!
*Please think about it. The story is about wolves in the wild, so don't give a character the name 'Meowzers' without a reason.
*Be creative! I'll be more likely to pick new characters than boring ol' Mary Sues.
*Don't spam the characters to win! Up to 2 per person.
*Be realistic! Wolves can’t have green fur or purple eyes. Markings need to be slightly realistic, and I don’t really want a wolf with a green ‘3’ on his flank.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you have any trouble, here are some tips that might be helpful:
* Hybrids are a part of being creative! You can mix and match the breed of the character, and it doesn't even need to be a proper wolf, it can be a dog!
* Names like 'Josh', 'Sean', 'Karen', and 'Bob' are allowed.
* Unique personalities are basically a part of what I'm looking for. Your character can be an idiot, an energetic hero, a bloodthirsty villain, a flirt, or anything that doesn't break the rules!
* Interesting markings are good, but be a bit realistic. Examples: Black paws, faint stripes on his legs. (It can depend on what your character is, too. Like a Wolf mixed with a Dalmatian can have spots!)
* You can draw your character, but it won't effect how I pick the winners. (I want to be as fair as possible)
* Don't overdo the history of your character. I like a good old long and detailed history, but this is an example of what might be TOO much:
Roxas was born on an island named Barkos, and was caught by humans after his entire pack was captured. He escaped from the humans and encountered a bear, then killed it when it tried to attack him. After defeating the big beast, he explored and was attacked by a herd of horses. He killed and ate 4 of them and took control of the herd. He learned how to 'speak horse', but he was cast away because he was a 'wolf in sheep's clothing'. Later, Roxas went across the packs and saved them from 3 hunters and hunting dogs. They worshipped him and took him in, and now he has a mate and is alpha.
See? (Sort of a Mary Sue)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(You don’t have to fill out EVERYTHING! Any optional things are optional. It won’t effect who’s character I pick.)
Packs:
Greywater Pack: Proud,defiant, and clever. Very loyal and fight for what is right, or at least for what they THINK is right. They are known to be witty and are usually friendly towards each other, but stern and aggressive towards enemies.
Stonecreek Pack: Intelligent and brave. These wolves accept most loners, and accept almost every challenge. They are cheery, and are known to have bright young pups full of excitement, which make them troublemakers at times.
Roseblood Pack: Cunning, Noble wolves with a passion for fighting and hunting. They love to spar, and argue with other packs almost every day. Members of this pack are generally very protective over one another, but cruel to strangers.
