Having weapons and ships is just one piece of the Principate being able to defend themselves. They need people to use the resources we gather and develop. You have been tasked to go on a recruitment drive, to look for dedicated civilians who can answer the Principate’s call. These recruits might just find themselves in a faction and used in upcoming Brotherhood stories!

Using the provided NPC Template, your own preferred application of choice (Microsoft Word, Apple Pages, etc.), or the CS Sandbox, create an NPC Character Sheet.

• Example: Harry West Completed characters will feature up to six (6) unique traits (Aspects) and should detail their specializations (Discipline, Skills, Feats) and any other backstory or history you feel like adding.

Resources

• 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 - 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 NPCs can be Force or Non-Force Users.
• Created NPCs can be any rank between Journeyman 1 and Elder 1.
• Created 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 credit your source when doing so. Avatar creation tools like this one can be helpful.

How to Submit

• Participants will submit entries in .pdf, .doc, or .txt format.
• If using the Google Docs template: “File” → “Download as” → “PDF Document (.pdf).”

Alternatively, members can submit a plain text submission to the competition by copy/pasting the following template:

*Name:
*Age:
*Height:
*Weight:
*Species:
*Path/Order/Rank:
*NFU Discipline:
*Character Traits (Aspects):
*Skills:
*Feats:
*Languages:
*Lore:
*Notes/Extra:

You are responsible for checking your own formatting, this is just a starting point.

Grading

• Entries will be graded on completion, syntax, originality, and the quality of the writing used to create an interesting and well thought-out character.
• Characters that get selected to be added will be created by the Voice staff as official NPCs, per the DB Story Group’s discretion.
• Qualifying NPCs that are added to the roster have the potential to be used in the future.
