Welcome to Elenlond, an original medieval fantasy forum! We're always looking for new, dedicated members.


Elenlond is composed of two continents: Soare and Esiria. Esiria, a land now isolated due to the efforts of the last remaining Goddess, is inaccessible to all beings and lies in the east. Soare, a continent in the west, is composed of three distinct nations: Ashoka, Soto, and Morrim. Lying between the two major continents are the Scattered Isles. Since the dissolution of the pantheon and the fall of the gods, these countries have existed in relative peace and prosperity.

But how long will that peace last?

First and foremost, this should be a thread of suggestions
for more categories and opinions on those already listed.


OKAY SO this is the new thread to post the suggestions for the categories. Thus far, we have:

Big Awards:

Most Improvement (writing wise)
Biggest Twist
Best Use of an NPC
Best Dialogue
Best Fight Scene (Thread Award)
Most Original Character
Sexiest Male Character
Sexiest Female Character
Best Plot
Best Overall Male Character
Best Overall Female Character


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Smaller Awards:

Most likely to die old and lonely
Best "skin of your teeth" escape
Most likely to kill self on accident
Most insane character
Most assertive personality
Most Realistic
Most likely to run down on a rainbow
Most Badass
Biggest Heart
Best use of scenery
Creepiest Overall
Biggest Backstabber

-LIST BY WOFFLES, because she's awesome and helpful~


The list will be editted to include new suggestions. Everyone pitch in.

This thread is not for nominations to Categories, so don't post obnoxious things like "My character will TOTALLY win that one because I'm awesome and you all suck at that compared to me!" We wouldn't want you to jinx yourself. I'm not going to be unreasonable about this, thus, so long as you arent being rude or pompous I bid you speak freely about the above listed categories and you may say things like "Kit will definitely get "Most Likely to Get Naked" because he's been naked for at least awhile in every thread we've had!"

XD Haha. I'm an example.

=D Best Pet?
Ooh, and "Most Likely to Stab". I know that'd be a huge category.

>.> Maybe we should have some alignment-type ones...

Most Good
Most Evil
Most Lawful (omg, do we HAVE lawful people?!)
Most Chaotic
...Most Neutral? XD (maybe not this one...)

Best Death! (nononono- Yori self-insertion. Has anyone else even died? >.>)

If this were my DnD campaign, I'd suggest "Most Likely to Get Hit by a Falling Centaur."

Most likely to get themselves killed for hugging the wrong person >.> :P

XD that isnt specific at all

Ugliest character
Prettiest character

I would have made gender sub-categories for the above two; but then some who fall in the neither category would be excluded, and kit would get to go twice XD

Most likely to die old and lonely
Most likely to have far too many children
Most likely to die of a stroke

Best skin of your teeth escape.

ummm...FACE!
yeah thats all ive got.

I didn't seriously mean for the centaur one to get up there, by the way. >.>;

XP And dude, Kit gets to go twice for all the gender-specific ones anyway. I have the best character ever!

I think we're going to have to weed out the best categories eventually. o.o That's just... way too many.

Actually, I was thinking that we'd just randomize certain ones - basically, ones that we shouldn't/wouldn't do every year (best female character vs. most likely to fall down the stairs). So, have a maximum number of categories, have a few yearly ones, and the rest just get plucked at random.

I second that notion.

Though I do still think a few could be weeded out...

Oh totally lol. Some can definitely be dropped, but we don't have to you know... bring it down to 20 and do those 20 every single time. It's ok to have 30 or 40 and to only do 15 of them.

o.0 Me neither...

>.>; I'd have voted Freya anyway...

I don't think the kidnapped by fans one is necessary either. I mean, we've got a few too many categories for best girl/guy.

And I have no idea how we'd judge most likely to die of a stroke.

The stroke one is prolly a funny way of saying 'who's more stressed out'.

This is just my opinion. I weeded out the ones I didn't particularly like and separated them. The big awards could be annual and the small ones semi-annual. Or whatever. I dun really care. Just organized em.

Big Awards:

Most Improvement (writing wise)
Biggest Twist
Best Use of an NPC
Best Dialogue
Best Fight Scene (Thread Award)
Most Original Character
Sexiest Male Character
Sexiest Female Character
Best Plot
Best Overall Male Character
Best Overall Female Character




Smaller Awards:

Most likely to die old and lonely
Best "skin of your teeth" escape
Most likely to kill self on accident
Most insane character
Most assertive personality
Most Realistic
Most likely to run down on a rainbow
Most Badass
Biggest Heart
Best use of scenery
Creepiest Overall
Biggest Backstabber
Cutest Overall Character
Most Likely to Fall Down the Stairs
Most Good
Most Evil
Best Pet
Most Dysfunctional Relationship
Miss Congeniality (Friendliest Player)
Most Humorous (Character or Player)
--------------------------------------------------------------------

Also, for when we do actually vote, instead of making a million different poles, I might be able to find a program that just allows for one huge one like a ballot.

Do we want this to be the sort where we give awards for every time? Like 'Best Character '09', or would we like to steal them instead like no two people can have the same award at once regardless of the year/time in which it was given, Ms. America-style?

I think we should just award them every time. o.0 If someone wins and vanishes we can't really steal it back.
