Alright, here we go, again.
No, I'm not back on the net yet and it seems like it may take even longer, like, February, due to my area in Liverpool doesn't seem to be able to have it yet. Sigh. For those who had suddenly wanted to see some art by me or had thought there was some here, sorry, a no go. I might be able to get some dial up action at some point though. However that isn't what this is about.
I want you! Yes You! To do something for me!
I am currently making, in my spare time, an RPG in RPG Maker XP. It is based loosely on the peeps here, at RPGWorldWorld. Anyone who actually reads that thing called my LiveJournal may know what kinda plot to expect. Its based in the Here and Now. A none ancient evil has suddenly arisen (so its a new evil, meaning its trying extra hard to be grim and nasty) and objects, people and animals are turning evil. Due to a sudden jolt of 'power' through the internet, RPGWWers are zapped while on the PC and given Special Powers. From here the plot line doesn't get any better.
So what I want you guys to do is simple. Design a monster. Any monster you like, the sillier or bizarre the better. And doesn't have to be classic fantasy or Sci-Fi, so it could be a Monster Toaster, because, as I said, its based on Earth, here and now. You don't have to draw, as I know not everyone's blessed with killer art skills, so a description is cool.
I can check this every weekday so I'll constantly be looking. You can enter as many times as you like. Winning basically means the monster appears in the game. Simple prize for a simple challenge.
For extra help I'll give you the status effects I'm putting in the game incase it gives you any idea's.
Status effects!
Drunk: Character randomly attack a random person in the battle and are more likely to miss. (like confused)
Hungover: Character attack power is weakened and character may be sick instead of attacking. (like eh... weaken?)
ROTFL: Character is rolling on the floor laughing and can not attack. (Like Knockback)
Headache: Character is unable to use special powers. (like silence)
Killer Flu: Character loses HP each turn (like poison!)
Traumatised: Character is in a bad mental state and does not move or attack. (like Paralysed) An example battle of this is:
Omar thinks Scott's mouth looks pretty.
Omar uses ~$£@$ attack on Scott's mouth.
Scott is Traumatised by this experience.
Or
Omar drops soap.
Dave picks up the soup before thinking.
Omar attacks Dave's rear end.
Dave is Traumatised by this experience.
Or
Omar drops his towel.
Scott is Traumatised by this experience.
Dave is Traumatised by this experience.
Lex is Traumatised by this experience.
BW is too manly to be Traumatised by this experience.
Oh yeah, I'd like Omar to be in this =D so as an extra competition Draw Omar!
Oh! And the game is going to look tacky. Really tacky. I'm kinda aiming for that kinda vibe, so don't pull something trying to do the Best Thing Ever. If you do make the Best Thing Ever I will use it though. Oh yes, entering this competition means you don't actually mind me using ya monster design in my game, so eh, yeah, had to say that. *nods*
