So let's get it started, huh?

JOCELYN C. SNOW

Despite being human, Jocelyn works part-time for MogNet as a reporter. Though somewhat skilled in a fight, she's decided not to actively participate in the Contest. However, she feels the events of the Contest itself is worth writing about. It could, in fact, be the story that earns Jocelyn her big break. As a result, she along with her moogle partner, Kikipo. apply to be in the Contest with no actual desire to contribute. Instead, they go to wherever the Contestants go, trying to interview everyone involved.
In the game, Jocelyn and Kikipo will be practically everywhere. While Kikipo acts as the game's save point, Jocelyn will discuss whatever is going with the story to you, (in case you stop playing for a while, she can give you a refresher) and will offer information about any of the other contestants you've met (just in case you forget who's who; there are a lot of characters after all).
Yes, this character is actually based off me. I usually give myself a brief cameo appearance in the games I make, but this may be my hugest role yet... even if I don't directly contribute to the storyline.
But you too can make a character for the game. If you know me through RRR or DeviantArt, send me a PM or a note requesting to be a character and I'll give you my patented profile for you to fill out. There are few restrictions, as you can be almost whatever job class you wish as long as it was in an FF somewhere (much like my "Journalist" class, inspired by FF8's Laguna Loire even though there was never a specifically named class for this). You can even be a good guy or a bad guy if you want.
Everyone who contributes will be credited, of course. So what've you got to lose? Except maybe half an hour?

Small update, I know. Once I actually get RMVX, I'll be able to post screenshots, so until then the updates may seem a little dinky. I do hope you'll forgive me until then.
Until next week!

Heheheheh, you based a character off of yourself too? I think it works pretty well to base characters off of people you know rather than to just think of one out of the blue.
Once you get a sprite style down, let me know and I could sprite my character if you'd like.
Hey, I didn't expect to see a comment here!
I always try to have myself in my games. I don't know why I really do that though; same reason I'm in all my comics I guess... which is also pretty inexplicable. Does this make me vain?
I figure ten years after the game is done, I'll end up playing it again and going "Oh god, I can't believe THAT'S how I identified myself..."
Anyway, I'll let you know about the sprite style as soon as I know.
