Speculative biology is simultaneously a science and form of art in which one speculates on the possibilities of life and evolution. What could the world look like if dinosaurs had never gone extinct? What could alien lifeforms look like? What kinds of plants and animals might exist in the far future? These questions and more are tackled by speculative biologists, and the Speculative Evolution welcomes all relevant ideas, inquiries, and world-building projects alike. With a member base comprising users from across the world, our community is the largest and longest-running place of gathering for speculative biologists on the web.

First of all, I've finished the first issue, hooray. Second of all, this is where you can make your character. I've changed it so that any number of forum members can be added, as there is still several possible little communities to explore in The Revelation. This is how you would make it:

Character Name
Age:

This is where you tell me how old your character is.

Height:

This is where you describe your character's height.

Appearance:

This is where you describe your character's looks and appearances.

Role in series:

This is where you decide how important your character would be in the series.

Backstory:

This is where you describe how your character came to be in the current timeline. Remember, these are normal people, and Mythology is involved, so you'd have to have that in mind when thinking about it.


Once you suggest your character, I'll consider what I can do with the character. You can have a maximum of 2 people at any time. If one of them gets killed, you can make one more as a replacement if you want. The reason I'm doing this is to have characters to name in various settlements in the series universe, for the main group to encounter.

Tet

Age: Tet is a young lad of fifteen, but is a very good and tactical fighter when it comes to killing monsters.

Height: Tet is fairly tall, about 5 foot 4.

Appearance: Tet has pale olive skin, Messy brown hair, brown eyes with splotches in his right one.
He also has a scar across his arm and back from when he fought a monster unprepared. Clothing wise, he wears an old cloak with some scrap metal gauntlets, boots, and a helmet. He carries a sword made of an unknown strong and incredibly light material, along with a makeshift gun and a flamethrower.

Role in series: Tet plays an occasional important role. He travels the apocalyptic wasteland killing monsters and scavenging for scraps. He often runs into the main characters while they are traveling the landscape. He often helps the main characters with personal problems, seeing how he is easy to talk too and get along with, he makes a good companion and friend to many people, unless you piss him off.

Backstory: Tet likes to keep his history a secret, so much of his past is unknown, but when he did mentioned his past he described it as being "totally fucked up".

Okay. He's in. Sound like a character I made, in terms of backstory, which I'll explain later. Maybe he's in issue 2.

Just a side note on how things will play out. I'm making it so that I writing out how things will go, then my friend will do the comic. It will be like the plot summaries on Wikipedia.

That description sounds an awful lot like Chupacabra in the SSU3 submission thread.

What did I say about self-inserts, Paleo?

This is what I said.

"4. No self-inserts. If a character shares a couple of traits with you, that's fine. But if they're very obviously supposed to be just like you, or what you wish you were like, that makes the whole game less interesting."

PM me so we can discuss this further.

As I've said before, they don't have to have your username or whatever. As long as they aren't the same as someone else you, or someone else, has made, then it is fine. You would have to think of a name for your person, as, remember, these characters are not super-powered or whatever. And, they are simply normal people, and would have to have proper names correspondingly.

David Fletcher
Age:

A young man around the age of 14, like the series main protagonists.

Height:

He is 158.7 centimeters tall.

Appearance:

David has brown hair, with green eyes. He wears a usually blue t-shirt and short jeans. He is a modest person, with a mild build.
Role in series:

The main protagonist, who's role increasingly shifts. Although he quickly becomes the leader of his group, even if he isn't the oldest.

Backstory:

After being seemingly shred to bits by a Gorgon, he finds himself in his abandoned College's hospital room. Afterwards, he continues to meet more survivors, and, despite this, has no idea of who he is. Amongst his group, one of his closest friends is a girl called Sam Turner, who seemingly has feelings for him. Despite having a mild relationship with her, he is constantly being called upon by other members of the various communities and friends he has, but, when the eventual antagonists show themselves, it is up to him to rally his friends together for the ultimate war.
