User blog:Njalm2/Character Creation Contest

This is exactly as it says on the tin - a character creation contest! Since I'm under the impression that we all know at the very least what this should encompass, I'll go right ahead and explain my motivation for this.

I've noticed that while there's tons of Uchiha, Senju and Uzumaki characters, the lesser known clans of Naruto are highly underepresented as a whole on this fanon, and I think this is much in part to how certain Kekkei Genkai and clans are portrayed in canon. Its important for me to get people to create characters whom don't belong to any cliches or employ easy-to-use powers like Kekkei Genkai and the likes - and for this reason I want to propose a simple friendly character creation contest. Where each participant works to create and finish a character by a set date where I'll look through each of the characters, offer a brief review of the character and then state my opinion of them on their talk page.

The top three on this list will receive a full review from me for that particular character

Conditions
Now, for this to go smoothly. There are quite a few conditions for entry that I must inform you guys of, and these are the following.

1 - NO KEKKEI GENKAI (This includes all elemental and biological Kekkei Genkai, and also fanmade ones as well)

2 - NO SENJUTSU/SAGE MODE (Although due to the current ban, this is an easy one to follow)

3 - CHARACTERS MUST BE CREATED FROM SCRATCH FOR THIS CONTEST (This means that any character created earlier than yesterday (20/3/13) may not be submitted for this test)

4 - CHARACTERS MUST BE AT CHUUNIN-LEVEL OR BELOW (I'll talk more about the reason of this requirement depending on how many decide to compete)

5 - CHARACTERS MUST BE COMPLETED DURING THE CONTEST PERIOD, IF THEY'RE INCOMPLETE AT THE CONTESTS END, THEN THEY WILL BE DISQUALIFIED (For a character to be considered completed, they may not need to be 100% finished as a work, but rather have significant amounts of information in every one of the primary sections used in character creation; History, Personality, Appearance, etc)

6 - CHARACTERS CANNOT BE FROM AN OVERUSED CLAN, SUCH AS THE UCHIHA, UZUMAKI OR SENJU!

How to compete
Simply drop a link in the comment section of this blog to the character you wish to enter into this contest, it doesn't need to be remotely complete when you submit the link. But if it is considered incomplete by virtue of not having significant information in all relevant sections of character creation - then it will be disqualified from the contest.

A week before the DEADLINE of this contest. Which will be the 10th of April, 2013; I'll look over each and every one of the contestants and pick out the top three, depending on how many who choose to participate, I'll get help from one or two extra judges. If you have any more questions, then ask them below.
