or can we just send u the appearence pics/formula, inspiration paragraph thing??

I have 2 alternates so far, entries submitted to me previously from Keith and trynax!

AWK! And here, I had just deleted most of the contents of my inbox, save for those 2 that had submitted already! Stupid, stupid, stupid me. Sorry about that...Yes, you'll have to re-submit...but on the bonus side, if there's any special moves or stats you want to change, you can!

Pretty much, yes. The best stories are the ones that don't contradict MK's plot.

then, here is my long Khameleon's Bio and Ending...
this is my personal point of view about Saurian's extinction and Khameleon and Reptile's involving.
read it because i think that is very interesting :)

note: sorry for bad spelling...i'm italian.....i could have made some errors, expecially for past forms of verbs (if someone could correct some errors, i will be very grateful to him!)

-----Bio:

Name: Khameleon
Place of Origin: Zaterra
Allies: Reptile
Foes: Shao Khan,Shang Tsung

My name is Khameleon and i'm the only female survived to the extinction of my glorious race, the Saurians.
The author of this genocide was the vile Outworld's Emperor Shao Khan.....he conquered our homeland Zaterra, killing and enslaving all the members of the Saurians.
There was only another member left....Reptile......who served Shao Khan for many years, in exchange of freeing the slaved Saurians.
But our race history wasn't that simple....there are things that nobody knew.....i am the only one who knows the truth!
The Saurians race was a glorious,rich and well structured civilization. (note by Dark_Schneider84: i imagine it as a atzec/maya like civilization....something like Eldorado....like the movie The Road to Eldorado
http://www.e-jason.net/movie/eldorado.jpg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=76jhlRoLp48&mode;=related&search;=).
It was a Matriarchal society and all the members were good warriors,ninjas and sorcerors.
After an ancient great war, we transfered from the Earth to a new realm, Zaterra.
We reconstructed our civilization and growed powerful again......and made a strong alliance with the Outworld's Emperor, Shao Khan.
We helped each other to grow both our empires as good allies.....then our Matriarch gave birth to two children....me and Reptile.
Yes, we are brother and sister.....nobody knew about this....even Reptile.
Saurians' tradition, due to the Matriarchal structure, was that the first daughter will become the future Matriarch and the first son will become a skilled ninja........at the service of the ally.
We were separated from the birth....i was grown by my race and Reptile was given to Shao Khan to grow him.
Both of us grown and became skilled ninjas....but we never meet.....but my mother told me about him and that Saurians' tradition.
Our race lived many years of glory and harmony........but my mother and all the Saurians, never thought that the Emperor Shao Khan would have betrayed us.
He ordered to his powerful sorceror Shang Tsung, to manipulate Reptile's mind to his will.
He sent him to our Zaterra, as the ambassador, to assassinate our Matriarch and stole our Kamidogu, an ancient artifact, the catalyst of our power,knowledge and protection from the invaders.
During the false meet, finally i saw him....my brother....but he didn't notice me....he was completly under Shang Tsung's control....he was like a brainless puppet.
During a private meet with my mother in her room......he assassinated her.....and ran away in invisibility towards the Artifacts Chamber....killed the guards with impressive skills and stole Zaterra's Kamidogu.
My brother....a traitor....how could it happen?
He returned in Outworld, to Shao Khan....and gave our Kamidogu to him.
This was the beginning of our extinction.....
Shao Khan army invaded our realm and destroyed our civilization in few days....without our Matriarch and the Kamidogu, we were too weak for powerful Shao Khan's troops.
They slayered almost everybody...and enslaved the very few survivors.
I'm the only one who survived to this genocide....thanks to our sorcerors who hidden me with an arcane spell.
After this short war, Shao Khan merged our Zaterra to his Outworld and our race was definitively extincted.
I was alone...nothing around me...only death and destruction....my mother was death and all my fellows were gone...only my brother was left....he, who caused all this!
I decited to revenge the Saurians, killing him......but when i was next to find him....i heard about what Shang Tsung did to him.
My brother wasn't more a traitor....he was simply manipulated by the sorceror.
I decided to find him and show him the truth and free him from his mental cage.
But when i found him and tried to explain what real happened....he attacked me! I fought him and tried to free him from the spell...but i couldn't do nothing.....so i ran away.
Until Shang Tsung remained alive, the spell would never be broken.....so i had to kill him!
For many years i tried to slay him but i never been successful.
I also attended to Reptile's fall into madness and devolution into a more primitive state.........i also attended to his exile to Netherealm when Shao Khan was defeated, to his new alliance with the Elder God Shinnok, his return to his previous master, Shao Khan's death and rising of the Deadly Alliance, the Dragon King Onaga rebirth in Reptile's Body....and finally Shang Tsung's death, and so Reptile's mind manipulation release.
I couldn't do nothing to avoid all his despair.....but, fortunatly, the Edenian Queen Sindel defeated Onaga and removed his soul from the body of my poor brother.
I was there when this happened....i assisted Reptile when he awoke......he slowly regained consciousness and a more humanoid form.......i explained to him who i was and the truth about his manipulation and our race extinction.........he was desperate.....he felt responsible for all that happened to our glorious race.
But i said him that he wasn't guilty because he wasn't conscious during all this.....the true guilty was always been the vile Shao Khan.
Then i said him that together we could repopulate our race and if we could recreate Zaterra's Kamidogu, we could also recreate our homeland.

This is all the truth about Saurians' extinction cause.....

Now our only purpose is to revive our glorious race and our wonderful homeland Zaterra.....and the great battle at the pyramid that will begin shortly, will be our change to do all this, with great Blaze's power....


-----Ending:

During the great battle, many fighters fought each other to death.....also me and Reptile fought.
Beating numerous opponents, we reached the top of the pyramid and fought the firespawn Blaze.
With our combined skills, we destroyed it easily.......then his immense power flowed into our bodies....giving us great magic powers.....
With these new powers, we were able to recreate Zaterra's Kamidogu and placed it in our new lair......
We placed also a giant snake as a guardian.....to our eggs.....
When they will hatch, Saurian's rebirth will begin....and we will recreate our Zaterra, and revenge all our suffering to the only responsible......Shao Khan!!!

-----------

Small notes about this bio and ending to explain some points that can be confused:

-i don't consider Chameleon as a real char....and however i don't consider him a Saurian and however involved in Reptile/Khameleon story....so no importance if he isn't in this Bio/Ending :)

-can seem strange that Khameleon and Reptile, as sister and brother, will reproduce together.......but they are reptillian creatures.....and in the animal world, the INCEST doesn't exist....isn't uncommon that members of the same family, reproduce together (search for INCEST on wikipedia for some infos).....
also for the fact that their race is extincted and they are the only 2 Saurians left, reproducing together isn't strange......they need to repopulate their race :)

-in my story, Reptile didn't really knew about the fact that Shao Khan have extincted his race....until Shang Tsung's manipulation spell was broken and Khameleon told him the truth.....
also imho he didn't really knew also in the canon MK story.....infact imho, they say that Reptile served Shao Khan in exchange of the release of Saurians slaves.....but if he knew that Shao Khan had Saurians slaves, then is obvious that he knew about the fact that Shao Khan have extincted his race.......so imho was too strange that he served him with loyalty and was angry when shao khan was killed by the Deadly Alliance etc, if he knew that he was the guilty.
yes maybe he knew that his race was exctincted (due to the request to Shinnok to revive his race (but this can be omitted in my own story version :D ))....but imho he didn't knew that Shao Khan was the guilty.

Sorry I haven't been back online in a while. I had to replace my power supply on my PC. Now I am back and I would like to congradulate those who won in Round 1 and I wish everyone luck in Round 2 who is participating. Good luck to all!

Just wanted to double check to see if I need to resubmit?

trynax, yours is one of the two entries that were submitted to me in both normal and alt form, so you're good for round 2!

A minor announcement: I am no longer a moderator of this site. The only thing this changes is that another mod will be distributing the Dragon Points. :)

Thought so. Just wanted to double check.

Six entries so far. Low turnout. :(

Well, five days left!

Only six! Come on everybody get into the spirit of things.

I want to know if mine even got in.

I still have to submit mine!! wahh! and my digital camera got busted so... yeah but i'll use my friend's

So far, I have entries from:

macdaddy41
Keith
Dark_Schneider84
trynax
NiftyGod27

And promises of two more from Skein and 28POiSoN_ShAdOW89

I'll be nice, and extend the deadline for one day (as it is, I'll probably be busy as all heck on the 15th, it turns out). The new due date is the 16th.

Remember, pictures are only necessary if you want them to be. A formula is fine. :)

Just submitted mine

Did u get it??

Were do you get KAK formulas

damnit i completly forgot about this contest

i made a khameleon it's really good but im at work, and i can't remember the formula

do we have to make the fighting styles? im to lazy to invent a style so i went with the preset is that okay?

scorpionspupil, owen (the formula format was outlined in my first post), sorry, but time's up. You can still put your entries in for the upcoming Round 3, if you like.

So, as before, I'll need a day or two to adequately judge all of the entries. So far I've taken a good solid look at one:

Keith

As before, Keith makes it impressive. I was curious about his choice of neck accessory, but this in tandem with the throw he's given her actually gives a very nice graphical effect that's worth it to keep it in. He's fixed the one move flawed from last time, and that's a plus. His storyline is still awesome.

But there are flaws: The name he's given her weapon style doesn't fit within the amount of spaces given - it's one character too long. :( Also, while the appearance is great all around...those boots are very hit and miss, especially with the torso. While they look great from a distance, up close I can't help but notice the buckles.

Overall, still an amazing entry!

More to come...

can't wait for the results

28POiSoN_ShAdOW89

I like this! It's a significant improvement over the primary that was designed by POiSoN. I didn't expect the orange color scheme to work as well as it did with the grey motif and wrist/ankle accessories, but it did. This Khameleon is also proof that a wacky hairstyle can work, gives her a tribal feel in addition to her weapon.

The bio, as previously stated, is a good one, even if it does require adding Khameleon to scenes where she was previously not present. It's nice how her UMK3 moves were brought into account as part of her story, and I can now see where the current projectile comes from.

Unfortunately, one special move was left unassigned, and no victory or voices were given either, so that's unfortunate.

Still, overall, a very good submission!


macdaddy41

I can see that we've kept her UMK3 skin color here. The combination of Ninja V motif with classic ninja is nice, and something I knew I'd see eventually. The weapon appars to be a popular choice, too

The special moves are a mixed bag. Some work, and some don't. I'm wondering about the projectile and stomp move...

Something's also off about the appearance, and I think it's the color scheme and pants. There's a bit too much green here, and I think "Jade on her day off" when I look at it.

The bio is kind of funny in the way it mentions Chameleon, but the Tengu angle kind of comes out of nowhere - if this had been expanded on, it would have worked a lot better. Also, why's Raiden her enemy?

This isn't a bad submission by any means, but I think a bit more tweaking could have been done.



I'll post the rest tomorrow!
