Ok ladies, this is an important time...a lucky break before the carnage, time that should be used making wise reference choices and key study time. Ive heard allot of talk about how we should be posting our W.I.P's now...but you may aswell post your R.I.P's...if you rush in and fall...aint nobody picking you up:mad:
Im going to try to break this down alongside the rules so the links are clear. This is an open thread so use it to share your own reference ideas, it can only help the forum as a whole.
The regulations in general are vague enough to include anything, anything but robots, cyborgs, steam engines, or anything with electronics.
Aside from this you can create any sort of wonderful exciting character with a familiar or unique race its completely up to you. A few story points you should keep in mind however
1. The universe hasnt seen a working piece of technology for 1000 years!

2. The planets have been cut off from one another for 1000 years! consider this point carefully. In the real world earth hasnt contacted any other habitated planets but when we do the aliens will probbably think we are well strange:lol:.
3. Bizarre creatures have been emerging from wormholes; creatures made entirely of metal!a possible antagonistic feature for any entry piece

4. Lastly and most important key story line Your mission, with the help of a powerful magical artifact, is to enter an ancient forgotten world via wormholes, destroy all rival enemy forces sent by other planets, crush the awakening machines, and bring back the secret of technology in order to dominate all opposing forces, their planets and their wretched citizens once and for all!!

These will probably be the most important factor in your design, as it seems like a key point for judging and therefore points. Remember no combinations!:mad:
Invoker This character type harvests powerful magic to destroy and/or manipulate his surroundings or enemies.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0fEyJJdr-hs&feature=related (tetsuo, Akira VIOLENCE CAUTION)
Clericon This character type uses magic to heal, strengthen, weaken, banish or bind foes or allies.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k4EjVg7YYOQ&feature=related (Wow Bc)
Stalker This character type cannot manipulate magic like an invoker, but rather, has mastered the art of magic to aid his/her stealth, information gathering, and assassination skills.

Warlord This character type is not proficient in manipulating magic, rather, he/she has mastered the art of hand-to-hand combat, weapon(s) fighting and high armored defense. Warlord's may use magical weapons and armor.

Artifact Weapon
The 2nd key feature of any warrior, this is also crucial for points. There seems to be allot of confusion about what artifacts actually are, luckily they can pretty much be anything. But regardless of your choice weapon make sure...
1. has an elemental energy

2. that its aged (this is a post apocolyptic universe)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artifact
Keep our dominance war history in mind when choosing your artifact from the barracks, but again nothing mechanical.
Powerful artifact weapons are needed to defeat all opposing rival forces and to destroy the awakening machines. Your character must wield a single artifact or a pair of similar artifacts (two scimitars, two daggers etc). Artifacts must possess one of these following magical energy types (no combinations, example, no Fire/lava + Vegetation):
Fire/lava
Water/Ice
Air/Lightning
Earth/Rock
Vegetation
Darkness/void
Light/Holy
Summoning
Special notes: If you choose to give your character two similar artifacts, you can only have one magical power type. Example, you cannot have one ice dagger and one fire dagger. They must both use fire or both use ice.
Other Rules
No vehicles allowed.
Your character cannot possess digital technology. A simple pistol is allowed, but a laser gun with circuitry is not allowed.
Organic living pets and steeds are allowed.
