Re: MDV IDOL 4!!! - by Chris Newton

Guys, be sure that you understand the contest. There are several entries in already, and the are not going in the direction that the contest is intending to go.

You are designing a revolutionary. He is rebelling against his own kind. He is tired of the way his own culture does things and wants to change things to be best in his own interests. Please be aware that this character is to be a powerful ruler, and able to make people come to his way of thinking, as he said in the article, either by might or other more subtle tactics.
