Question! I'm not so inspired as to create a girl as I am to draw. Can I put off the Puella Magi and go straight into creating a few witches? If I can't create two civilians off the bat (so much easier for the moment) then I'm all for witches.
You're welcome to draw 5-10 Witches if you are up for the challenge. Fair to warn you that its easier said than done though and I don't trust my drawing capabilities to be up to par at this time, either. xp
At least I'm admitting I'm not perfect, and if I ever do a Puella Magi of my own, I'll wait until Mage Luna gets her Puella Magi profile up and running first and hope everyone's still alive long enough for that to happen.
I think I might get the right story elements involving her if I ever get her profile started.

Considering its not clarified if others want in on the contest if a contest to gather Fresh Witches specifically for the sub-forum is ever held, you take the lead so far.
More Witches could do nicely, there's about 35+ more Witches that might be necessary before its safe to see the group getting kicked off in deadly earnest I'd say.
Wonder how Dark Rose and the others are doing at the moment, even Liv's owner for that matter.

I'm working on witch number 2. Number three doesn't look like it'll be pretty and artistic in any way if the other two are anything to go by. Just more creations from my nightmares.

Even the early 2 Witches you brought in and gathered are Artistic in some degree or another, although if you mean compared to the earlier examples, no one will hold it against you.
You could apply the Cerebus Syndrome on them later on when the role-plays get revitalized in deadly earnest.
'Queen Mean'...that's new and intriguing, wonder if this 'Queen Mean's case has a messed-up cause of 'her'/its birth so to speak.

Before I actually saw the 'profile' set-up, I made a back story. The back story influenced the designs for both of them. XD
QM was socially neglected(not a loner by choice)/ or made the selfish wish to gain popularity. (=friendship, intimate relationships, money, networking, etc.) but her behavior pushed everyone away. She started using those around her like stepping stones, because she used examples seen in society. Jaded as she was, the Puella Magi never realized what harm she'd done. Eventually when she needed help, no one came out of fear she'd strike out at them again. *poof, witch goodness*
Her original barrier was a spider web ('Net' working..such a terrible pun.) but then I learned there was already an arachnid. So..I chose to turn all those 'associates' into toys. Similar enough, I think. Honestly, I don't much care how they'll be taken when they're actually battled. I'd be interested the direction the Puella Magi take when interpreting the skeleton.

You may have a point. If nothing else, this will be fun to observe to see if anyone can survive from a run-in with the Queen Mean Witch, or if they ought to brace themselves for the body count threat alerts.
Sometimes the Goals don't necessarily matter so much as its the overall journey behind it that matters in the end, the hows and whys for when things happen, so to speak.
I get the gut hunch when the role-plays begin in earnest, we'll all figure out the Hows and whys soon enough.

I actually am rather curious about that. I did a test run using the Dice system for my own RP plan, and it seemed to work out; but then I assigned points to attacks and such.
I'd like the think at the end of the battle, the journey will be deemed more important, but I'd imagine that would get lost in the losses/gains of the allies. XD Particularly when your witch wore a strapless dress or had a foot dangling from nothing.

Well if it helps, considering that the events in Kazumi Magica showed bigger impacts of the aftermaths of whenever Witches are born or Puella Magi wind up dead more than we generally get to see in most of the first 9 episodes of the Main Anime, it'd be interesting to see how the group may show the aftermaths of all those Witch births and Puella Magi death tolls on display once the body counts or Witch births start happening, whichever comes first.
(Spoilers for Kazumi Magica in particular)
For instance if the Police began taking interest in absent Puella Magi, I'd have to wonder how much longer before we start hearing of Mobsters also taking interests in those matters, or anyone who happens to be former Military Spec-Ops residents for that matter, or even both really!
(End spoiler)
This could make things interesting somehow.

Hi there! Sorry that I've been away for so long--I'm just about to graduate from my senior year in college. I haven't had time to come back to Gaia much. (finals and portfolios and the like take up a lot of time.)
I shall get started on designing some witches for the girls to battle!
(I think we have plenty of members to start with, because who knows how many will be active, but 170 in a Puella Magi RP would be extravagant, particularly because the story is in one city. Mitakihara had trouble supporting just four magical Girls in Another Story)
Someone remind me who I gotta send my profiles to? and more so because my Magical Girl profile requires info that I was not able to fill in because there was no space to do so, because of her race

Just don't go without warnings again next time, okay? You scared us senselessly for that. gonk
Good luck with the Witch designs, capice? The minimum numbers would be 5+ Witches for every 1 new Puella Magi that appears.
(There are multiple reasons for why 5+ Witches for every 1 Puella Magi, but I will not reveal them at all here at this time!)

Sorry! I'm not used to people taking notice when I disappear from the net. I'm rather used to being a nobody. sweatdrop
My first design is done, scanned in, and ready for biography-ing. I'm rather happy with her design, so I have to figure out a way to make a "plausible" barrier for her.
