The Twelve Labours: General Discussion

you can only use your own character/s for this challenge.

@Terminal

Which makes my task easy, since I GM'd the game my character's featured in.

Back on the Rails - A Multiverse RP Take 2!

Name: Nicholas Santos
Age: 21
Appearance: You may call me "Nicholas The Renegade"! Or Grim Reaper... doesn't matter to me.
Powers/Equipment: Nicholas carries with him the Break Gunner, a device that allows him to transform into Mashin Chaser. As Mashin Chaser, Nicholas is able to fight, but due to damage induced by the Shadow Line, its Core Driviar is damaged, disabling the ability to slow down time. To counter this, however, Nicholas also obtained two Shift Cars and three Viral Cores.

• Amazing Circus: Allows Nicholas to fire out props and fireworks from his Break Gunner.
• Deko Traveler: Allows Nicholas to pull off a disorientating background change... though it only seems to disorientate himself.
• Chaser Cobra Viral Core: Gives Nicholas the Tail Whipper, a whip weapon.
• Chaser Spider Viral Core: Gives Nicholas the Fang Spidey, a gauntlet weapon with a pincer at the end.
• Chaser Bat Viral Core: Gives Nicholas the Wing Sniper, a crossbow weapon that can allow Nicholas to fly if put on his back.

Personality: Nicholas can get cocky. Especially when he has power in his hands. He is also easily excitable, though that excitability can make him incredibly obnoxious. In the face of grimness, he tends to crack jokes, though he's also prone to worrying if things are incredibly bad to a point where cracking jokes would only get people to give dirty looks at you. "There's a time and a place for jokes." he puts it.
Brief Backstory: Nicholas was a college graduate ready to go out into the working world. He soon found work at a shop that specializes in automobile repairs. Though his boss was... Well... Bossy, he grew fond of the young man. Day by day, he taught him all there is to know about fixing cars.

Yes*. But bear a few things in mind -- one, it's a lot of work, and two, RPGC is built the way it is so that people can join the staff and try their ideas right here.

*the only hangup is that the contest submissions schedule fills up real fast, so at some point a discussion will be had about standards and limitations and whatnot.

@mdk

Hm... Noted.

The Twelve Labours: General Discussion

Just thought of a funny loop hole.

"It's my favorite character... to kill off!"

The Twelve Labours: General Discussion

<Snipped quote by Psyga315>

It is perfectly ok. You do not even need to use the setting of that RPG if you do not want to. If you do though, make sure to credit the creators of the different franchises being crossed.

@Terminal

Alright, perfect. Thank you for answering all my questions.

The Twelve Labours: General Discussion

Your favorite character, who is yours, whom you write for. Not a character belonging to anybody else. You may write for characters of your own who are present in story franchise settings, but you may /not/ write as characters who are a part of that setting's actual canon cast, since those would not be your characters. The very first clarifying point in the contest thread even specifically states you can only use your own characters.

This is an ancillary point to the entire topic - the whole point is to use one of your own characters, in any given setting of your choice. Because of [Legal issues] and [Contingencies] I am merely including rules to ensure that if you mention franchise settings or otherwise make use of them, you credit the original creator of that setting. You are under no compulsion whatsoever to specifically use fandom characters or settings.

If any part of the main contest description has led you to believe otherwise, please immediately point it out. Use ANY character you want, as long as it is your own.

@Terminal

Oooookay, that changes a lot. Alright. Perfect. I have someone in mind. One last question though.

The character I have in mind is an OC in a crossover RPG. Is that allowed?

Doll Master: A Partners RP

As Shane walked through the streets, he heard a loud scream.

"Well, that seems like a good opportunity for a hunt! The game's afoot!" Shane ran to the source of the scream. He ran after the source of the noise and found a house with its door blasted off. He gulped.

"Okay, maybe it's a break in... It's just a simple break in... Hooooopefully without any of those Dolls mutilating anyone inside the house... Oh God, I'm gonna die in there, aren't I? Well... Might as well go out fighting, right?" Shane thought. He got out a small mask, one that fancy people wear to a masquerade ball. He took out his Peerless Nail and approached the house, not as Shane Gambino, but as Gambol Shroud.

When I say 'specific to a fandom,' I refer to a character you might have which exists either predominantly or exclusively within a particular franchise setting, I.E. Homestuck, Fallout, that sort of thing. Such a character may have been made specifically for roleplaying within the purview of such a setting.

If the character is used in a context outside of that particular fandom, then you don't need to credit anybody or anything. If the setting being used within the framework of the story is the universe of a story franchise though, make sure to credit the original creator.

I'll go ahead and edit the clarification to make this point a bit more obvious. In retrospect it wasn't the best choice of words.

@Terminal

Wait a minute. I think I read this whole thing wrong. Now I gotta ask...

When you mean "Your character", does that mean your personal favorite character from a show or your favorite character you played as.

<Snipped quote by Psyga315>

I do believe so, as long as you clear it with Mahz and mdk.

@RomanAria

Ah, I see. Had an idea for a contest... Hm...
