It's the contest everyone's been waiting for, yes, the hero of time contest! In this contest, you have the chance to play one of the story's most central characters, the Hero of Time. Before I explain how to enter, some things to note about the character.
Firstly, the character must be a hylian, and can be either male or female. Gender doesn't matter despite the role normally being male in the video games. Your character should be around 16-23 and has lived an at least semi-normal life up until now in Termina. Over the last year, he or she has noticed a glowing triangle on their hand appear a few times, but has told nobody of it. This hero is different from the one who fought the man of the desert five hundred years ago in Hyrule and thus would have no memory of the events that took place in that time period. Other than that, feel free to add whatever spices you'd like to the role.
This contest will last two weeks. No more, no less. There will be another IC event by then so don't be worried about this dragging on like the carnival has. The deadline for submitting your characters is midnight on November 11th. The winner will be chosen the next day or so. The admins will be looking out for writing ability, story plausibility and activity level of the member to make a decision as to who will get the role. Now for the instructions on how to enter the contest.
Put your application in Serenade of Water just like any other character, except be sure to mention "Hero of Time" or something along those lines somewhere in your application, either in an ooc note at the end of your history, or as the title above the app.
During the two week period, none of the characters will actually be marked as accepted, so you will not actually get to play them until the end of the contest. This is so that you aren't stuck with a character you don't necessarily want to play if they don't get the role.
Now, one last thing. If you don't win, that doesn't mean that you lose! There are runner up prizes to be had as well! For entering, there will be a prize pool to pick from. At the end, you can choose between a new spell, a weapon upgrade or a heart container. You will be free to give these to whichever character you like. So there is good reason to join in!
We're looking forward to the applications! Good luck!

Can I get a drum roll pleeeeeease? OUR WINNER IS...
Selene Merrows!
Indeed! This righteous young lady may not be the loudest most heroic and chivalrous figure, but she's got everything a hero needs: compassion, drive, a dream of helping others... Ms. Merrows is a perfect fit for the job!
Both applicants did an amazing job. In fact, such so that Linktwin, creator of the adventurous and complex Brohntic Eral, will now be taking the place of our notably missing in action Man of the Desert role. The member playing this character has not posted in over a month, and had not notified either myself or Sweetpea. So for posterity's sake, we've decided to give this role to a member whom we knew would be not only reliably active but experienced enough to fill the order.
Each character was unique, and both went above and beyond what was asked for in this contest. However, we feel that things will work out very well this way. The only thing that disappoints me is that more people did not join! Made it kind of hard for me to choose one or the other, y'know? So, for Linktwin and Raine, both of you get your choice between those aforementioned goodies. Just reply here and I'll get you sorted with them!

It's between the heart container and a new spell... while more life would be totally awesome for Milrael, I REALLY want to see him able to use a spell. So, I'll go with that. I choose a new spell for Milrael!

Well, since Selene doesn't have a weapon yet, and I'd like her magic to be learned IC... How about a heart container?
♥ I am honored. I hope to do you all proud!
