I had just thought of this, but it kind of fits in with the rest of the FEAR contest themes going on. Here's the deal. I will be getting back into writing this story line when I can, but I need characters and situations. If you guys can come up with an interesting character I will put them in my story as described, as best as possible. They can be practically anything. A talking rock, a dancing moose, or even an alien. I won't rule anything out.

Just give me a name, description and character traits. As much or as little as you want to provide. There will not be just one "winner" as I will try and use all good suggestions. Your "prize" is to have your created character show up in the story which will hopefully be published someday.

no t-shirt?

I don't have shirts to give out. You'd get a free book if it actual gets published though. No promises on that actually happening though.

he could BUY you guys a shirt

Fuck that.

Ive not read enough into your setting to come up with some good characters.

That's the thing, you can create your own setting. The main character will be going off into completely different settings throughout the story. They don't have to make sense or officially connect together. Its supposed to be silly, random and fun.

Jacob Pommelsnap, Traveling Spoonman Extrodinair! (Or so his card says)

Jacob greets you with flashy smile and quickly pulls you in close with one arm like an old friend. He shiftily eyes the crowd before opening one side of his trench coat to reveal row upon row of spoons. Spoons come in all shapes in sizes from tiny one designed for scooping sugar into cups of tea to a large ladle that Jacob swears came from the Queen's own kitchen. He hastily hides his spoon emporium from prying eyes. He leaves you with his card and continues on his way, searching for the fabled Spoon of Ultimate Balance, said to never spill or drip on to a diner's clothing.

I can work with this.

Just as an FYI, your character doesn't have to be human. Preferably not actually.

Then make him a badger or a jackel.
