Plumerian #620 - Butterfly Garden

Postby Syra » Sat Sep 05, 2015 7:10 pm

Asked my friend for a color-palette suggestion and got greys and pinks.
n_n

However I failed at trying to keep the design simple... again. OTL


Anyways, since I haven't done one of these... either in a very long time or not at all, this will be an unlimited impress me.


Things your form will need to qualify for judging:
-Name
-Gender
-Age/Birthday
-200 Word Minimum
-1 Art Piece Minimum

Everything and anything else is up to you!~


Here are the things that impress me to help you as well as a list of things that jar me out of a form:

Impression Improvers:
-Lots of characterization in fewer words
-Vivid/Interesting Characters
-Consistency
-Quality Art
-Nicely Formatted Forms
-Balance of Abilities and Flaws, Strengths and Weaknesses, Positive traits & Negative Traits
-Single Theme Song

Bad Impressions
-Japanese names that are not native japanese. [Link to my Rant]
-Excessive Repetition
-Sob stories/Dark Back Stories where they are ONLY a victim
Bad pasts are great, when the character isn't just a helpless victim. It de-characterizes them and only makes them pitiable. However, if their own actions played a part in their negative pasts, even causing them, that makes their character more complex and often shows more details about them than what can simply be told in a personality section.
-Mary-Sues/Gary-Stus. (Characters that are "practically perfect in every way"-Mary Poppins)
-Misrepresentation of gender/sexuality/disabilities/occupations/etc.
If you do not know much about a certain subject, but you want to include it in your character, do a lot of research and try to properly represent it. Also, remember, that every "common trait" can still be expressed or experienced differently by different people, so generalizing such a trait can also be a form of misrepresentation. If you are not confident in your ability to represent a trait fairly, then it is probably safer to not use it.

End Date
It will end on September 25th at 10PM EST.
Leaving this account.
I just... need a clean start.

So sorry that I've AFK since mid december.
Not feeling that great atm, started with the flue and then re-lapse of my brun out. Although, I will be back eventually when things are better. I always return, this is my comfort zone in this great world wide webb after all.
Be well, hugs to all, yours truly, vaz.
