In some cases, I've made some minor tweaks to the characters in order to fit them into the game. You can read the full backgrounds of these characters and the other entries HERE.

Thank you to everyone to participated. We will begin contacting the winners next week with regards to their pirzes.

The sheer creativity demonstrated in the contest has inspired us to examing making Dark Avatar an expanded expansion pack (i.e. put in even more features. You can read some of our thinking on that in this thread).
