Ringulf's a Character Contest

Post by **Peter Remling** » Sat Jul 07, 2012 6:39 pm

Not the Official Title, but it got your attention.

Scott (Ringulf) suggested this next contest. A contest that draws both story writing and visual artistic abilities together with educating the reader about your Ranger Persona. The Ranger's Character Contest

Write a personal history about your ranger persona, as long or short as you like . Then add to it the visual aspect of how your character looks through photos or drawing or painting.Your persona's equipment and belongings can be featured in either the personal history aspect, the visual aspect or both. If someone is assisting you we ask that you include their name as a curtesy there will be no penalization for other assistance.

There will be three catagories: Best Rangers Apprentice (for the new or those lacking resources), Best Background (for the written part) and Best Visual (for the visual aspect).

You will have until Dec 1 2012 at midnight EST to submit your entry. Please include which catagory or catagories you wish to be included in. It is possible to win more than one catagory.

Polls will be conducted at that time for each catagory to pick a winner of that catagory.

Now for the Prizes:

Rangers Apprentice- a mug made specifically for this contest and donated be Ringulf.

I am totally doing this! I'm always looking for a way to write about my Ranger self without being too boastful!

And I could really go for a new mug if you know what I mean...

Frothgar

Either are acceptable. The contest is just a way of describing your personna.

Thanks for the reminder guys!
I will get started on this to kinda give an example of what I was thinking,
but let your creativity run wild!

I was also thinking after this was over, if I had a full length portrait picture in a standing or kneeling pose from all who wished to be included I would collect them all together and paint a group portrait of our Ranger Band as if we were all together.

How does that sound? Anyone interested?
