Competition Time!

Hello all,

It's been a while since I last posted, but I'm trying to keep my posts regular enough. Having recognised that this is my 12th post I thought a competition was in order. It had been an idea rummaging around in my head for a while and I like giving you the opportunity to effect the background of the roleplay you'll be participating in.

So the idea is this... create a boss, a villain you will confront. Choose a name, race and gender. Give him/her some background text, maybe even an illustration. Enclose it all in an email, in form of email, document or pdf and send it to me using my email address.

Remember that this is a military roleplay in a set background and any evidence that you've created a character that will fit in with this background is more likely to be chosen as the winner. Also, making sure your spelling is at an understandable level is a natural plus. 50-300 words is the kind of length I'm looking for. Be descriptive and imaginative, just because this boss is an enemy of yours doesn't mean he has to be evil. On the other hand maybe that's exactly what you want. Maybe you want a heartless murderer who'll happily put entire colonies of innocents to death or maybe you want an honourable and virtuous foe who you'd back just as readily as your own characters. A last note, don't make them too overdone or underdone. Lazrax ender of worlds is a bit O.T.T. but Corporal Jaq of the Flavian Light Infantry 2nd heavy weapons team is too average to be noticed.

The winner will have there character feature in a few sessions (or maybe more) of the Deathwatch Roleplay. So post in your interesting villains and may the best entrant win.
