Answering your questions in reverse order:
And I don't know if this is obvious or not, but can I make the characters young? Iike 4-8 year olds? Maybe get a little cuteness on this piece?
(More questions when I get home, btw)
Yes.
Mecha-Hewitt, I have a major question:
How can I make a "children's story" if I have a emotionless zombie with a missing eye and a touch of death? How can I bring him to a Y7+ level if he's pretty much intimidating for the kids? I feel that this theme might be a bit hard on a character mostly based on really dark stuff, including his tragic background.
This is also addressed to XJCLW. Just because your character appears to be the worst thing ever, doesn't mean you can't explain it to children. They don't have to know everything about your character and you can easily downplay the violent aspects of the work. For example, kids generally know that when you die you goto heaven. They don't need to know the intricacies of pain or existentialism. They just know that dying = eyes closed then ray of light and angels. This can work in the same way for you. Just imagine a little girl meets Todesberuhung and asks him what he does and why. What would he say? What would he butter up to make her understand that premise.
I hope I helped ^_^
XJCLW. You should leave. (:
ILU.
But seriously.
You can still participate as a new entrant. Just let me know within the next 3 days.
Is Birtdog just playing as his character?
I understand he was subbing for someone.
He is participating in both. That was his choice.
Question, Hewitt, can you like make it so you transition into multiple storybooks?
Also, can you do like looney tunes violence?
Yes. And Yes. Kids know that if an anvil falls on your head you get hurt. But they don't know that your organs squish and explode into a bloody pulp and die.
Would I still get to participate in Round Two? :D
If so, then very much yes ._.
Let us wait out the period for acknowledgement first (4 days). If not everyone has come forward then it's open season for you.
Oh, question, since the win doesn't count as a win, would the loss still count as a loss?
What. No. Did I answer your question correctly? Winning/Losing here doesn't count for the Hall of Warriors.
2. @Hewitt and Lobo: You guys did harass him on his RP out of spite, and that was your biggest fault guys. (Come on, we're more mature than that)
WE'RE NOT CHILDREN! Stop the immature mudslinging guys. :(
I like how one sarcastic outburst suddenly justifies what kind of person I ultimately am. Immature. I know we have a one-year gap between us but realize that I am not the kind of person to stoop to such tactics that is quite against my character. Perhaps if you were here the whole time you would know that (not taking a jab at your sudden hiatus).
Ante's Below:
GamerXD8 (Easy) - Begin your story with a sunrise. End it with a sunset.
BoomerangReturns (Hard) - You are now writing a story for the blind (it may or may not include a blind character). Describe at least 3 colors in your story in a way that will make the blind know what it is without having to see it.
Codincx (Easy) - Include a damsel in distress in your story.
Tantalum (Medium) - Incorporate a Guardian to either of your characters throughout the story. By the end, this Guardian must leave/die.
merich1 (Medium) - Both of your characters are now animals. Actual animals and not anthromorphs (animal-people). They still retain the qualities and powers of your and the opponent's wRHG though.
Canis Majoris (Medium) - Incorporate a Mystery into your story that deals with an underground chamber and ghosts. The Mystery must be solved in the end.
Nikx232 (Hard) - Remember when I said you couldn't introduce edgy violent themes? In this Hard Ante, you
must introduce at least one and justify it. To reiterate these themes are drugs/alcohol/violence/non-consensual sex/etc.
digkid (Hard) - Include a Modern twist to an age old idea. Like recent disney fairy tales like Tangled and Frog Prince.
BirtDog (Medium) - As the Narrator of your story, you must break the 4th wall and address the reader throughout your entire telling.
By the by guys, I only mentioned that ONLY this round would not count for pts in the Hall of Warriors because I didn't think this idea would fly but I'm quite relieved most of you enjoy it. I want to ask if it's okay with you, for me to make the succeeding rounds in this bracket like this---alternative breaks from actual fighting. I'll put up a poll in this thread for you guys to gauge interest. Will also update my first post later.
