  • Competition Time!

    We're holding a little Easter Competition for people to earn a little prestige, perhaps some stags, and maybe even a custom item or two.

    The premise is simple; design a new character. It really is as simple as that. (Don't actually make the character, just design it) The character can be any restricted race, restricted class, have any background you like and be whatever you want, but we're looking for some really good writing.

    What's your character's history? Why would they come to Sundren? What events in their lives have shaped their character? Enemies, friends, lovers, families, who's important to your character?

    We know that people do this all the time, and many people write up beautiful backstories in Character Requests, so this should really come as second nature to you all!

    Rules
    • The entries must be written in a PM no longer than 500 words. Any entries more than a little over this word count will be discounted. PMs should be sent to myself of DM Doubtful.
    • All entries must be mechanically creatable. No half dragons, or winged characters and such.
    • No member of staff is allowed to enter.
    • Scoring and selecting the winning character will be done entirely behind the scenes by the staff, and their decision is final.
    Prizes: TBC
    I am death, come for thee. Surrender, and thy passage shall be... quicker.

      We are expecting quite a few entries, and to be sure to meet the dead line we would like them kept short that way we can give each the attention they deserve. We don't want to short change any of the players we have, or disrespect any with simply scanning over their submissions. But I still encourage you to give it a try BedlamX, you never know you may make something you want to actually create.

      Love,

        lol...just cut over 2000 words from one I was working on a while ago for another server. Got it down to around 550-570 words, so I'll send it just for the heck of it. If any of you ever want to read the full thing, lemme know and I'll shoot it to you.

        And, nope...got no desire to actually make this guy anymore

                      Keep those competition entries coming guys, only 8 more days left. The prizes are still under discussion, but MAY include things like:

                      Custom appearance items
                      Chance to play a locked class / race
                      Oodles of exp
                      Rep with a faction of your choice
                      A big fat bag o' cash

                      And maybe a few other things we haven't even thought of yet.

                              Better idea:

                              Evil Drowess who pretends to be Chaotic Good and worship Ellistrae.

                              Wait for fight to break out between supporters of Drizzt's and those who want to kill them like they should.

                              Mop up the weakened survivors.

                              Lol.
