Canon Ability Making Contest
As you may or may not have guessed, this is a contest which revolves around making abilities. The trick is, you can’t make abilities for just anyone. These abilities will have to be made for a specific canon character, so everyone has the same basis for entry. It’s a pretty basic contest. Make the abilities to be used by the canon character, and let the judges do their work. The judges will be the staff members; Iris, Heroic Bilby, and Villainous Northie.
Now, let’s get onto the technical aspect of this little shindig. It's simple!
Make the abilities fitting for the character. If the canon that you’re making abilities for is Piglet, giving him the ability to summon mecha-deathgods that can shoot flames of darkness from out of their pores would clearly make little sense. Piglet wouldn’t use fire.
No unblockable abilities. This should go without saying. =D
Creativity is always appreciated. Now, when I say creativity, I don’t mean making something completely random. While it might be funny, it won’t put you in good standing. Make something original that will impress the judges.
Follow the basic ability rules. Make sure to keep in mind that like a normal cahracter creation, you start out with 10AP to make abilities with, be them weak, moderate or strong. Normal ability rules apply.
If the ability is confusing, then explain them. Also, don’t try to cram multiple abilities in one. Make these abilities as if you were making a character and trying to please us on the first try.
Make sure they’re YOUR ideas. Plagiarism, much like cannibalism, is frowned upon in most modern societies.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Now, you will have eight days to make these abilities and post them in the appropriate thread below these rules. Post only ONCE. Do not post twice with any additional comments. If you do, you will be given a warning bar for disobeying staff orders, and because I’m power hungry today. You will also be disqualified.
The prize will usually be either 4 extra AP for a new character OR two free ability slots, OR two free upgrades. You may choose which of these three you want upon winning.
