You would need to be indexed. Once you are indexed, you can just post in the appropriate NPC application thread requesting that your old iNPC be moved to your new iNPC. As long as they are the same year, there won't be any issues.

To make it short, I want to use her in the prompts, Home Away from Home, Protector of your Dreams, Facing the Darkness, House Elf, and probably a few others.

If this is allowed, could I also write things that arnt in the site cannon? The universe I use Quinn for now has it where House Elf's are not free for example.

Sorry if this is confusing or dose not make much sense.

Yes, you can use any of your Hio characters freely in your art. The art itself does not have to be canon, for example with the Graduation prompt many characters have not yet reached graduation so you can interpret the prompts as possibilities or AUs or whatever you'd like. As long as your art is related to the prompt, we will accept it.

That’s perfect!!! Thank you so much :]

i may have missed it, but is there a minimum word count for martch? i know the maximum is 500 and wasn’t sure if i overlooked it.

For some of the prompts for the mARTch errand, I was wondering if I could use a canon character from a series as the narrator for that prompt

Word count minimums are a challenge because certain mediums would be a lot harder to do with the 200 wc minimum but I personally suggest staying near the 200 words myself. If your contribution is here is a poem about graduation and it is a Haiku... sorry but we need more than that.

I am not sure what is meant by using canon characters as a narrator and would need some clarification regarding this one. I generally suggest avoiding the use of canon characters but this is also an out of character activity. So I suppose we would need some clarification on this one.

Ok, so what I meant was, with the graduation prompt, I was going to write a graduation diary entry, by having Eishi Tsukasa from Food Wars writing about his graduation from the Institute. Is that ok?

I would suggest about 200 words personally.

200 words for the entry or the explanation?

For the writing. Preferably the entire thing is 200 words at least.

Ah ok. Gotta edit my second entry
