It’s my turn to set the Community Challenge for this week…

Theme

This week we’re doing theme via creative constraint. Make whatever you want, you just can’t use characters. More specifically, no characters, named or unnamed, from any stories, songs, games, etc. That includes mash ups.

You can definitely still have people, you can still use tropes, and even create your own totally original characters. Just no reusing existing characters, or obvious derivatives

Rules

  1. Follow the community’s rules above all else

  2. One comment and image per user

  3. Embed image directly in the post (no external link)

  4. Workflow/Prompt sharing encouraged (we’re all here for fun)

  5. At the end of the week each post will be scored according to the following grid

    Prize Points
    Most upvoted +3 points
    Second most upvoted +1 point
    Theme is clear +1 point
    OP’s favorite (me, this week) +1 point
    Most original +1 point
    Last entry (to compensate for less time to vote) +1 point
    Prompt and workflow included +1 point

  6. Posts that are ex aequo (tied) will both get the points

  7. Winner gets to pick next theme! Good luck everyone and have fun!

    My take on it: trying to tell a barbarian they hit the edge of the map, physical character limit [Bing]

    backview of enraged barbarian leaping to uppercut giant stop sign reading "YOU CANNOT GO THIS WAY"

      In the beginning were the words, and the words made the world. I am the words. The words are everything. Where the words end, the world ends. You cannot go forward in the absence of space. Repeat.

      Tbh doesn’t quite fit my description of the theme but it is a creative take on the title so I’m cool with it
