Character Creation the Game! Round 1 Recruiting
« on: August 01, 2014, 10:14:57 pm »

Character Creation the Game

The residents of FG&RP in Baytwelvia spent their time making one character sheet after the next, hoping to get into games. Sometimes their inability to format a sheet within 40 seconds of the thread opening barred them from the game, sometimes it was the length of their sheet, and other times it was the composition of the party. But all had experienced the rejection of their character on at least one occasion. So we bring you Character Creation the Game, where you must complete different challenges to create the winning sheet! I'm Samarkand, your host, and we'll begin with a round of My Choices are What?!


Round 1: My Choices are What?!
Theme: Technomancer University
In this challenge you'll be given two choices for a variety of different character parameters. You have to create a cohesive story for a character choosing amongst them. There are 6 contestants for this challenge, and the winner will be determined by a vote at the end of the round. You are assigned a contestant number in order of post, so post Reserve to grab your spot and edit the sheet in later. To reiterate, first post gets first sheet, second post gets second, and so on.

This theme means you are all university students which happen to have technomantic powers.

Name: Lord Emperor Salsacookies
Gender: Jalapeņo Chocolate Chip
Age: Slightly Stale
Alignment: Lawful Narcissistic
Backstory: Salsacookies had a simple dream, and that dream, was too simply rule the world, and show the world, the glory and power, of giant dwarf sized cookies. In order to do so, he attempted to practice Spicemancy. Unfortunately, he was kicked out of his native dimension due to stepping on the king's shoe. His constant attempts at dimensional takeover may have played a part, but him stepping on the king's shoe was the final straw. He doesn't have any feet to step on shoes though, but that's not important. Thankfully, Aeronautical Exorcism was similar enough to Spicemancy, so he's happy.
  He began to think about what he needed to do to properly show his glory, and surely, Computerized Zoology showed his superiority. And it worked. He was so great, all his fellow students in awe of his superior knowledge, that they dunked him in a giant glass of milk, just to shower in sweet, milky, awe and, wait, why am I falling apart? Help?
  After this traumatizing event, he learned that just taking Computer Zoology wasn't enough, or to compensate, he took a course in Cybernetic History, to make sure his grades were up to par.
Major: Computerized Zoology
Minor: Cybernetic History
Magical Ability: Aeronautical Exorcism

Reserve, because eh why not.

Okay, when I saw that my options were Liberal Evil and Remedial Economic Virtual Reality, I couldn't help myself. I just had to go with a libertarian joke (with a semi-Evangelical twist) for the character. Hopefully y'all don't blame me. :v

The games have begun and we have two great entrants so far! One is a megalomaniac cookie exorcist and the other is an incredibly irritating master of the quantum world who has no qualms about informing you of his complete mastery. We have an additional two submissions on the way, so stick around to see what academic abominations they can create! Additionally, we are still welcoming two more entrants to this round.
