Hey, Tumblr artists! As you can see, this is a Law of Talos / Endzone / Castle of Nations fan account! We would like to make an OC competition with similar aspects to these competitions, otherwise known as an OCT!
Your OC shall be battling it out with others on a random planet, in a random setting, to receive the final glorious prize of a train ticket that takes them to wherever, whoever, or whatever they'd like! Your Oc could visit their dead relatives, go back to a nolgastic place, find something they've lost, or wherever else they'd like to go!
Rules for your OCs:
-No NSFW topics (anything gor3y, s3xual, etc) . If you're not sure if something about your OC is too NSFW, check up with us! Our messages and asks are open.
-Can any OC you'd like! It can be a fandom OC or your own OC or whatever, though we'd prefer completely new faces and will choose originals over fanons.
-Only one OC submission per user!
How to Submit:
1.Go on this google form, asking about yourself, your art, and your blog. (Optional, but would love to get to know you!)
2.Create a masterpost explaining everything and anything important about your OC. You can ramble about anything, though it should include:
1- an image of your OC
2- their name and pronouns
3- family background if any
4- backstory and current life
5- their motivation(s) to be part of this
3.Tag #thesillysmasterocpost and tag us!
4.We'll message you on whether or not your OC got in a day before the list goes up.
This competition will rely heavily on propaganda, as probably nobody knows much about your OC (or at least not as much as a character from popular media). When the official post goes up, we shall reveal the official prompt for the tournament. This is inspired by Law of Talos, Endzone, and Castle of Nations, right? We shall set up a setting and the characters have to battle it out in this setting, with certain goals, materials, and obstacles. Your propaganda shall:
1.Say why your OC should win.
2.Explain in detail what they would do during the battle and how they would win.
3.List everything they'll use during the battle, including items from the setting as well as personal belongings.
4.Include a comic strip (or strips if you'd like) of this said battle.
You will have at most a week for you and your competitor to complete your propaganda. You will send it in our ask box, as well as post the comic with simply an ID separately on your blog, tagging #sillyshowdowncrazycomic. A day after everyone is finished with their propaganda, we shall post the asks, and a day after the polls, including shortened versions of the propaganda. You can make more propaganda if you'd like for any OC after the polls are up. They will be up for a week. Amount of people on the bracket will be determined based off of submissions, though we're leaning on doing only 16 to not burn out the artists. Last day to submit shall also be determined based of of submissions.
Any Tumblr artist is allowed to partake in this showdown! Anyone that can do it can join. We'd like a mix of popular artists, so we can get more people to be interested and therefor more votes, and smaller artists, so they can get clout for their amazing art and OCs!
