If you're participating in the Character Challenge Writing Contest, then you will place your entry in the comments. Treat it just like you were making a regular character application! This way, you characters can also get approved (if they are eligible for approval), while being judged. YOU MUST put your entry here and only here, before you try and get it approved. If you believe your character is complete and ready for approval, before the contest is over, then say so in bold letters at the end of the application/entry. There is more info on character approval within the challenge, under rules. You can always ask me, AsteriaNyx, for clarity
