Are you sitting around doodling on the back of napkins as you grumble about what talentless hacks Disney, Groening, and Stan Lee are? Well, now's the chance to unleash your own creative genius on the world -- or at least, the tiny adventure gaming corner of it.

Juniper Games has announced a contest to design your own character that will appear in the upcoming game, Juniper Crescent - The Sapphire Claw. That's right... Scout the One-Eyed Cat, Blinky the mouse, and the rest of the Sapphire Claw crew are ready to welcome a new face that currently exists only in your imagination.

Completely free, with no limit on the number of entries per person, the contest will run until August 22nd. The top entries will be posted for public viewing, and each finalist will receive a print of their character adapted and signed by Steve Ince. The winner will ultimately be decided by public vote through ballots available at Juniper Games. If that last selection has your name on it, you can look forward to untold riches, fame, and... okay, well, at least the privilege of seeing your character in Sapphire Claw, and full credit for your creation.

For complete contest rules and a character sheet template to help get you started, check out the Juniper Games website. You can read more about Juniper Crescent - The Sapphire Claw in the Adventure Gamers preview.
