Task
Members are tasked with creating a Non-Player Character (NPC) rival or “nemesis” that is befitting of their main or alternative character. Rivals will be created using one of the provided NPC Character Sheet Templates or your own preferred application of choice (Microsoft Word, Apple Pages). Completed characters will feature up to six (6) unique traits (Aspects) and should detail their specializations (Discipline, Skills, Feats) and any other backstory/history you feel like adding.
Resources
- I recommend using my GDoc NPC Template or Wally's GDoc Template to submit your entry as they are the most "complete" options.
- To use these templates you must click on "File" → "Make A Copy" and then fill them out.
- if using my template, you can highlight the skills/powers and drag/drop them to where you want.
- C-D4WG - Character Sheet Reference — Allows you to view all the information on Aspects, Skills, Feats, and more.
- You can use any of the pre-written Aspects here if you’re not comfortable creating custom ones.
- Character Sheet Sandbox - Found in your Character Sheet Administration menu, enables you to experiment with builds/skills. You can take a screenshot and attach the build, or transcribe for your template submission. You can find it on your admin page at the bottom of the "Character Sheet Administration" page.
Rules
- Created Nemesis NPCs can be either Force-sensitive or a Non-Force User
- Created Nemesis NPCs can be any rank up to your current rank, but may not exceed your rank.
- Created Nemesis NPCs should include as much detail as possible while following and adhering to the Character Sheet Guide and Approval Guidelines.
- Participants can optionally link an original or reference character image, just make sure you credit your source when doing so! Avatar creation tools like this one can be helpful.
How to submit your entry
- Participants will submit entries in .pdf, .doc, or .txt format through the submission box on the DB website.
- If you use one of the Google Doc templates provided in the Resources list, you must submit in .pdf format
