So over the past few days, as I was busy writing content for my own personal storyline (unrelated to Trials), I came up with some possible characters and possibly an entire new race which I would be willing to expand upon. I did take a good look at the "Ideas" threads posted on this forum, which did explain a good bit about the process and requirements. However, I still have a few questions to which I was (perhaps due to my own incompetence) unable to find a satisfying answer for. Thus, I now resort to asking them here.
First off, I would like to ask about Codex entries. I believe I have enough backstory to complete a full entry for at least one of my ideas. So then I would like to ask the following; in order to submit a codex entry for a new species, do you also need to have all character content planned out (battle encounters and the likes), or is it possible to work that out later? I already observed the basic layout of the document, using the custom species of a user named Saiya as reference.
Second, is there a certain time limit on creations after the idea/codex entry has been pitched? Though I am willing to spend my time writing the possible scenes for my characters, I don't know how much I will have at my disposal to completely write said scenes. I also tend to have times where any content I do write will be absolute shit, which will only delay the writing that I do.
Finally, and this is only in the case that I am able to keep up the commitment and my ideas get accepted by the Trials in Tainted Space team, what will happen with my ideas when they're implemented? Would I need to commission artists to create busts and coders to write the necessary code?
I thank any and all who are willing to take their time explaining these things to me, and I can only hope that my ideas will be to your liking.
