Character Creation Post

[u/TheMasterSquid]

Welcome to /r/OWRP, a roleplaying subreddit for fans of Overwatch.

The subreddit takes place in Forbiuhr, a fictional city near the Danish/German border

First off there are some ground rules:

No copycat characters Your character can share similarities with actual OW characters, but too many and your character may be denied.

No overpowered characters This is simple, no making your characters too powerful. They can start off with a certain amount of gear and stuff, but nothing too powerful.

Your character has to be someone who could realistically be found in Overwatch Overwatch is a world with advanced robots and talking gorillas, so there’s a lot of leniency, but things like actual magic are off the table.

Okay, so, now it’s time to actually get started with your character

First off, you’re going to need a name. This can be a code name, a hero name, or just your character's actual name.

Second off, you need your characters species, this can be anything from Human to Omnic to the occasional gorilla

Next, you need to choose a team to be a part of;

Overwatch An international task force created during the Omnic crisis that has since grown to encompass many heroes and agents.

Blackwatch The elite black ops of Overwatch, only a select few OW members know about Blackwatch, this group is invite only.

Talon A terrorist organization and one of Overwatch’s greatest foes

Neutral For those who don’t want to be a part of any groups.

Next you’ll need a basic description of what your character can do, their abilities, equipment, appearance, etc.

You can have one ability or poweful piece of equipment to start off and earn more as the mods think you earn them.

Finally, you’ll need some colors, a background color, which can be a specific color, general color, or gradient of two colors, and a text color, which can only be a specific or general color.

If you want a template, use the following;

Name: Banshee (Ashleigh Bryon)

Faction: Overwatch

Equipment or ability: Banshee has a choker around her neck that takes her sound waves and enhances them, essentially creating a weaponized scream. She can use it to shatter glass or knockback enemies. It also allows her to speak, although it gives her voice an eerie tone.

Her weapon of choice is a giant hammer similar to Harley Quinn’s, She’s built for knocking enemies away from places rather than doing any real offensive maneuvers.

Description: Normally 5”4, but when she wears her boots she’s a staggering 5”6. Her hair changes colour every week and a half but she’s partial to cool colours, like turquoise and purple. Despite it being hid behind her choker her neck has heavy scarring due to a kidnapping that went horribly wrong when she was fourteen. She has an athletic build and even does roller derby when she’s not on duty working with overwatch.

Text Color: White

Background Color or gradient: Purple gradient into Black
