Mara's Challenges: Help Build SWU Diversity

[The Flickering Flame]

*sniffles*

No bonus for a Verpine? They're not usually RP'd at all....

((EDIT: Actually, all I'd like is for their name on the list. My Verp is still being criticized))

[Mara]

Well, the purpose of this is more to create a more realistic universe here, as regards to species diversity... but I could see putting Verpine on the list perhaps, at 5 points.

Except that I believe you made the character before seeing the list... which isn't really what I thought of when I made it.

[randy]

I'm a Vurk, but I don't see it on the list.

[Mara]

Well, like I said... this is mostly for people, to encourage them to find a unique character/species, to encourage more diversity here.

I just don't see that if someone, like you, already had it... to give away the points.




In fact, I have been meaning to go through the ones I have, maybe cull a few, and check to make sure all are viable species.



EDIT: This doesn't mean you can't suggest species or other additions...
As long as you're not suggesting it for the sole reason of the character you want to create/are creating.

Okay... I have some suggestions for some exotic alien species where their backstories would be interesting:

Courataine
Priapulin
Gree
Charr Ontee
Worrite
Gutretee
X'Ting
Fosh
Tarong



Those are just a few exotic suggestions. I found them with a mixture of my memory and Wookieepedia to clarify things.

I SO! Call Anzati!

[Dutch]

You don't need to call a species, just make one. Not like it's gonna suddenly go away or something.

[Anna]

Well thats what i'm doing XD

I'm also going to make a Human Replica Droid, which I believe are pretty rare. Maybe I should get points for that? -hint hint-

Well, it could, depending on the point level.

But, yeah... just PM me when the character is accepted.

[Dutch]

Hey Mara, my Tarc Slave is all accepted and stuff. Link!

Does he get bonus points for having a crazy name?

[Mara]

Nope. And next time, follow the rules.

Points added for slave.

[Dutch]

It was a joke <.< and what rules? >.>

Edit: Oh, and my Sith Army Officer got approved as well.

Click me!

[Mara]

The rules that says you PM me with your approved characters.


Points added.

---

I think I will be adding in enlisted/regular soldiers to the list now, as well.

[Dutch]

That's a good idea Mara, what with the war really about to get swinging and all ^^

[Mara]

Yup... and I figure we need the grunts more than the officers... so they are worth more points than officers now.


Also, I put the 'PM rule' notice thingy closer to the top of the post, to alleviate confusions.

[Dutch]

Another good idea, cause yeah, I musta skimmed right past that when I looked it over earlier. My bad ^^;

[Anna]

I think I should so get points for this new char. I'm making, who isn't going to be revealed once I finish

[Anna]

till I finish*

[Mara]

Only if it's something on the list.

Also, for future reference, just edit your post instead of double posting.

[Ashi]

this is absolutely astounding....with this thing, I may just obtain positive karma for a short while....
