(But using the word OUTCAST is what affects my answer, as I'm likely misinterpreting this. I don't consider myself an outcast. My answer is Yes, but I'm socially ALIENATED... not an outcast. In any event, I don't like it, & just want to be understood... TTT…TTT)

~dj, cs student

i'll end it in October unless i decide to change the date for whatever reason.

[8/26 - because of personal problems many entries have been disqualified and removed. please do not ask.]

IMPORTANT THINGS TO NOTE:

1st — There is no limit to the number of times you can enter. But in the end, only the best rated pic from the whole lot will be compared to those from everyone else.

2nd — When this contest ends, all entries will be placed into 4 style categories: Anime, Chibi, Puffed, Anthro/All Others. The 2 highest rated pics in each field will earn the artists a request from me, with the higher getting an extra one. so 1st place in a category gets 2 requests, 2nd gets 1.

3rd — I will need at the very least 2 people to help me judge the entries fairly based on creativity. If you want to help me with this, note me saying "judging help" in the topic.

That's it for the update section.


With an important first name update(Kira is an unknown character i just brought up), here is Dead Pool's profile.

"Dead Pool" Kira Xavier
Gender: Female
Age: 20
Species: Human(with some Puff abilities).
Side: Good.
Eye color: Blend of three different greens.
Hair: Long, silver.

Backstory: D & Kira, best friends in fighting evil their own ways, decided that apart they have had problems fighting some enemies. So D was able to create a clone of each of them, then brought forth a pair of special earrings which he attached to the respective ears of the clones. After chanting an ancient spell, they came together, and were sacrificed, to form a brand new person. When the smoke cleared, the new person stood tall & proud.

Kira, being the more fun-loving of the two, her antics make up what this female would do in the situations of boredom to help alleviate it. The looks, open attitude, & overall nature of her were all determined upon by D's mind & psyche... his feminine side has forever been next to his inner naughtiness as well as his conscience, so they came to be part of the basis for her behavior. Her physique was in D's vision of his ideal woman. Now she lives close by D & Kira, both of whom she cares very much for as best friends, & dedicates her life to helping them defeat the evil in the world.

Abilities
* Acid powers, manifesting themselves in differing forms. She can also change the pH of all of her bodily fluids(that means sweat, saliva, blood, etc.) to acidic levels, for protective measures.
* Amazing skills with use of hooked chains, metallic entrapments, & torture devices(for when the time calls for them).
* She started out with impressive flexibility, dexterity, stamina and strength, and then D was able to inject some Chemical X into her blood to enhance her. It also enhanced her acidic control and even played around with her biological drives a little bit.

Item: An OLSC of her own, which morphed from the one D's clone was wearing when the sacrificial fusion took place. [Because this was a carbon copy of Vincent's, D had no time to assign it his own biological signature, and so Vincent's DNA got incorporated a little bit, giving Dead Pool her silver hair.] It has all the same functions of Vincent's.

Weapon: She can use several different ones, but prefers chains w/weighted ends(manriki) or hooked chains, of course.


Good Points
* She fights smart, & enjoys torturing those whom have threatened D or Kira after she seizes the upper hand & beats them down. [leads into Bad Point #1]
* She protects D & Kira when they cannot fight back, and will do anything to keep them safe, even die for them. Her other friends will also be protected similarly.
* She is naturally trusting, but knows exactly what to look for in order to tell if something is a lie, so very rarely will something false get by her.

Bad Points
* When she tortures enemies who had threatened D or Kira or a close friend, she will at times slip into a sadistic mindset, and enjoy what she is doing a little TOO much. Then only D & Kira's pleading will stop her.
* Depending on the situation, even just doing something annoying around her can tick her off & have her come after you with shackles or something worse.... so keep the sexist comments to yourself, boys. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.
* Besides going after those she is closest to, dousing her with a LOT of a basic reagent(as in base, when the pH is high) will render her acidic powers unusable. After that, she'll have to float in the Deadpool's acid for some time to get her pH back to where it should be.
