Character Creation Contest

May 2019
END DATE: May 17, 2019 @ 11:59PM
THEME: Sealife / Creatures of the Deep / "Mer-may-ds."

What am I being graded on?

Creativity

Your job is to create a character that, not only is unique, but has a unique personality, history, and set of powers and weaknesses to go with it.

Concept

The concept is generally diving more deeply into the history of the character as well as the powerset. How well do they work together? How do the powers work? How does the character function in SHRP's normal society?

Execution

This goes without saying that we're looking at the overall application and flow of the application. How pleasing it was to read, and how easy it was to understand. Was the origin story spot on? Did it make sense for the character? Are the powers perfect?

Who is grading me and how?

With the three main components of Creativity, Concept, and Execution there will be a grading scale of 1-10. 1 being the lowest and 10 being the highest.

*A ghost slot is a character slot that you gain temporarily to allow one more character to your roster. Once you choose to retire a character, you lose that slot. You do not gain a permanent character slot.

Good luck, and may the odds be ever in your favor.

I'll join. Have had a character in mind for awhile that I thought I might introduce in an Alert as some sort of villain, but this works too.

Also gonna be a flawless victory. No contest. Fatality................

Death and destruction.
