Side Contest
For those of you who aren't able to create a character for this contest, you may enter artwork representing your character, using the medium of your choice. Just like for the main contest, you should include a short description and a link to where the character is described in the actual RP. The timeline for this side contest will be the same as for the main contest.

Rules
The rules have been updated! Check here for the latest rules!
- Create the character in the game however you like. You may use mods, or create your own items/characters, or just use the vanilla game--anything goes.
- Entries must contain 3 things to be valid:
- A short description of how your submission matches the character
- A link to the RP character's sheet or other posts in the RP that are relevant
- At least 1 screenshot
- If at all possible, you should make this character in a game that is at least the right universe for that character. So if you have a Fallout character, you probably shouldn't be adding them to Oblivion. But creating a Morrowind character in Skyrim is just fine.
- If you want to create a character from an original fiction RP, you may use any game you like.
- You do not need to share the file(s) you created. A screenshot is enough.
- If you qualify for more than one prize (main contest and side contest) then you will win only the prize of greater value. The other prize will go towards whoever would have gotten it if you hadn't entered.
- You may pick a character from any RP hosted on this forum, whether or not you played that character yourself.
- If you choose to recreate somebody else's character, then you are not allowed to represent them in a way that would offend the character's writer. If in doubt, ask.
- You may submit multiple entries, but for the sake of clarity, please make a separate post for each entry.
- "Screenshots" includes taking a photo of the screen, for those of you who play on a console.
- Photoshopping is acceptable only if it doesn't look obvious. If your submission is more art than screenshot, it will be classified as an entry for the side contest.
- You may have more than 1 character in your screenshot, if you like, but it will count as one entry.
You have until August 19 to submit your entry!
Voting will be from August 20 - 24, with the winner announced August 25.
