Comic Contest: Speechless in Aelion

Imagine for a moment that you’ve just returned home to play your favourite MMO, Skyforge, and are currently waiting for your Pantheon members to get organized before taking on the invading Avatar. The wait is normal (Jimmy can never quite get that pizza out of the oven on the first try) so you take the opportunity to crack open that fresh comic you purchased:

The Adventures of Aelion Man!

Not one to spend too much time wondering how you managed to purchase a comic about Skyforge that isn’t in print or even exists, you have a brilliant idea:

Why not create comics about Skyforge yourself?



Between January 25th and February 8th, we’re inviting all community members to participate in the Skyforge Comic Contest: Speechless in Aelion!

Log into the game, get a minimum of three (3) satisfying screenshots (see below for Hints and more), and arrange them into a comic-layout of your choice. This includes speech bubbles, a panel-comic format, a story of your choosing and so on!

If you need assistance getting started, we’ve provided both an example comic as well as a template below.

Example

You are not required to use the template we have provided and your comic can be as long as you deem necessary, provided it follows our guidelines.

Entries can be submitted on either Facebook or the Forums. Only the most appealing comics, decided based on story, text, quality (and so on) will stand victorious!

HOW TO GET AWESOME SCREENSHOTS AND POSES

  1. CTRL+U to hide your interface. It yields awesome images that way!
  2. Use the emoticons: G > F7 and give them a try.
  3. Have your friends and/or Pantheon members assist you to get the best story out there.
  4. Take a look at existing comics (both web or paper) to get cool ideas.

PRIZES

What can the creators of the best masterpieces expect? The Top 20 submissions will equally receive the following:

1x MC Costume, Blue
500 Victor Medals
10 Medium Spark Replicators
500 Rarities Valuables of each
