Territory Creation Contest
The new Territory Control upgrade to the forums is underway... but there's one problem: not enough Territories! Soul Eater, for all its creative diversity, has surprisingly few usable locations for Territories -- most of the cool places are in Death City. And so we turn to you, the fans and roleplayers, with one simple question:
We're looking for original, Soul Eater inspired locales for use as Territories -- whatever crazy places your minds can conjure up! Try to make these more than just random towns and cities; we're looking for something the Factions can fight over, something to pique their interest. and your submissions are our
Submission format is below; you can submit as many Territories as you'd like. The twelve Territories selected by the staff will each win the submitter a one-use 30% off coupon for any Point purchase at the Emporium; additionally, the ones picked as the top two will net the winner(s) a Member Rank upgrade. So be creative! It's well worth your while.
All submissions must be in by
MAY 1st for judging!!

Contest extended indefinitely due to insufficient entries.
SUBMISSION FORMAT:
{Territory name goes here} ~ Unclaimed
{Write a brief description of the Territory including any key features of interest or tidbits of history. Descriptions should be no shorter than five complete sentences and no longer than three paragraphs. If you want to describe the Territory in greater detail use the 'More Details' section at the end of the form; be sure to leave the spoiler and color tags alone.}
Territory Bonus {Recommend Territory Bonuses for each of the current Factions + Freelancers. Bonuses can range from the practical -- such as 2x Point Value if the location is especially valuable to a particular Faction -- to the unusual -- a special power, discount on certain Emporium purchases, access to a custom Minion, Vehicle, or Equipment of your making, etc. As a general rule the "flavor" of each Bonus should fit the Faction: Shibusen is into soul-enhancing knowledge and physical training while the Exorcists value high technology and anything that helps them manufacture; bonuses for Witches might be magical artifacts and arcane lore -- consider also having Bonuses that benefit specifically the witches / characters who claimed the Territory, since this Faction is more independence-minded than most; the Heretic Cabal prefers Bonuses that blend the magical and the mechanical, possibly even with madness, and valuable test subjects as well. Also consider the Recon Bonus, listed below the submission form, for Territories that specialize in information gathering. Feel free to be creative!}

Recon Bonus: This Territory enables the Faction Leader to select one enemy or Unclaimed Territory per month -- if the Faction's Territory Bonus there is listed as '
' then it will be revealed. If the Territory has a Lair on it then the Territory's location is permanently revealed; Recon Bonus can also reveal mobile Lairs for a three-day span. The Faction will also have in-story justification for knowing what kind of defenses and garrisoned Minions the Territory has. This in-story info is good for only one attack; any changes thereafter remain unknown to the Faction in-story.
