She pretty much is. I have a wonderful backstory on her, and I can't wait to share bits and pieces during each round!

I can't draw worth a crap, so it'll probably be all writing. Unless I get someone I know to illustrate it. If I'm feeling risky, I might do some poem entries as well.

That sounds pretty cool. I think I'll be doing comic book style, but since it all has to be on one page (submission limitation reasons) I'll probably have a VERY long format in single stacked pages.
I'm also trying to recruit people, because the more the merrier (and more varied this game will be)

Yeah. I've tried to get a couple to join as well, but I don't know very many people on deviantart, or that have the time.

I just asked all my watchers. For some reason, the majority of them are in high school, so they have lots of time.

haha! I have three watchers, all of whom are in college with me. I don't quite have a reputation on deviantart yet, and writers are the black sheep of the deviant family.

I suppose it's true. I've only written a few things, but it's because I discovered how to add text about three weeks ago for a contest. I love to write, but it's hard for me because I love to read, so I'll go back for reference on it and re-read the entire thing that I have written, which takes up a lot of time.

Wow. That's really short. And Really good. I look forward to competing with you, that's for sure.

Thanks! I'm looking forward to competing with you as well. Perhaps our characters can team up at some point. (Though I may have to make some adjustments to mine first. I'm starting to think he's going to have a certain level of technophobia.)

Haha, my character has a pretty crappy past, so she has a lot of trust issues, but maybe it could be an uneasy alliance. You know, they team up cause they have to.
I think because mine is comic form, I'll post an "official" entry for the month, but have other ones that it links to, so people know what she's been up to. That way I can progress her journey a little faster.

Haha. Slain doesn't exactly trust people either. Comes with the job.

Hmmm. Ron Perlman would be amazing, but I think he's a bit too tall. I just like his style.

Haha, I'll keep that in mind. That will definetely give me a starting point in drawing.

I just have a couple of comments.
One is that the weapons feel very out of place on a cyborg from another planet 50 years in the future. Autorevolvers are very rare even today, so I'm not sure how they'd last 50ish years into the future and onto another world. Her weapons are all normal, and yet she has nanobots and cyborg parts. It just feels inconsistent. Like you gave her those weapons because you thought they were cool. (Which I may be guilty of as well with my character, but it fits his occupation and mindset.)
Then with the nanobots, you have to be careful, because nanobots are the sci-fi equivalent to God Mode. You can explain anything with nanobots, so if you aren't careful, it could lose credibility really fast.
Other than that, Veronica looks like an interesting character. I'm wondering what will happen when she runs across a certain Detective Jonathan Slain.

Hahaha, definetely guilty of the "cool" factor in this. I actually don't know much about real guns except through video games like Call of Duty.
I think it's just her preference, since she's not from earth. Perhaps they just look like autorevolvers, but shoot different types of lasers? I don't know yet. They looked cool enough ( I like the barrel on a revolver).
The nanobots just help with the fun. That way people don't have to worry about causing permanent damage, although she still has to take time to heal, just less than someone without them. I don't think I want to get too God-like. I'll probably use this to expand her all to human emotions and past.
I'll have to check out this Slain. She just might need to prepare to meet him...
