Wierd and wonderful competition

After checking the boards I noticed that their hasn't been a costume contest announced for a while and as I was planning on organizing a few I thought I'd start one running and see how it goes.

So for my first I announce the Wierd and Wonderful competition -

Do you have a four ft tall Tank, a Magic Blaster with the AR and Devices Powersets or a Tech Defender with Archery/Trick Arrows? Bring the wierdest charcter you can think of to the show.

It would probably be held in mid to late Jan in Pocket D and prizes aren't sorted yet although I can say that you will at least get an exclusive avatar for the forums.

Heroes and villains welcome so don't be shy.

Just make sure you have a backstory for your characters sorted (Why does your magic blaster have AR/Dev? That sort of thing.)

Have a decent explanation, if your an alien why are you on earth.

There is no minimum or maximum level apart from the fact you need to be able to get to Pocket D.

Also signing up Judges so even if you don't want to enter just come to judge.

Just don't forget rule number one - Have fun!

So...? A costume contest where you get judged by your description? And you have to have the "right concept" to be able to win or?

Not really, the main thing is anyone can create a 10ft Huge Body Type stalker, the challenge is saying why they're a 10ft Huge Body Type Stalker.

It's not about whacked out toons, it's about toons that don't fit in with peoples normal perception. I mean, how may 4ft Tanks do you see in Atlas?

All the best tanks are either 4ft or 12ft. Inbetween is unacceptable!

How sadly true that is... I hate it when really stupid generalisations are absolutely correct.

Of course, for female tanks it is slightly inaccurate. Female tanks have to be either 4ft tall OR appear to be six years of age and dressed in fluffy pink OR be as close to naked as the player thinks they can get away with. (anyone wanting to combine all three is playing CoX from the same cell as Gary Glitter)

It's true. Just check next team you're on.

Trust me, I'm a scrapper.
