EtPR Backstories Contest

won the last contest, and came up with a lot of really interesting ideas for the next. The one I like the most is backstories – so I thought it would be interesting to explore some of the characters I haven't had ideas for yet. X3

Select ONE character from the list below and draw a picture to illustrate your ideas on their backstory. What was their childhood like? Where did they live? How did they end up committing their crime, or what made them want to become an officer? What do you think made them the character they are today?

Try and make your entry fit in properly with the EtPR universe – make sure you use already known facts about the characters and their history (if there is any for that specific character) and build your ideas on those.

You can create new characters if it will aid in the story telling, but don't put the focus on them entirely. The entry has to be about the EtPR character.

The three winners will have their ideas used in future comics or future mini stories written by myself. By entering this contest, you are agreeing and accepting that I can and will use your ideas in my future projects!

- Please DON'T use images/panels from my comic - I want to see YOUR drawings, not edits of mine!
- No crossovers, please - just use characters from the TLK universe!
- Digital and traditional entries are accepted. Sketches are fine, but I prefer coloured pictures.
