SUBMISSIONS FOR THE TRAGIC HERO OC DEATHMATCH ARE OPEN!
As with any good deathmatch, we must lay down some ground rules. So.
•••
What does this competition define as a "tragic hero"?
A tragic hero is here defined, a little loosely, as "a character with a hamartia/fatal flaw who experiences tragedy resulting, at least in part, to this flaw". Given that this is a tumblr tournament poll, I'm willing to include ocs that dont specifically meet the classic standard of "tragic heroism" for the sake of Fun and Games. This is just a silly little fun poll of oc tragedians, so if you're erring on whether or not your guy Counts, go for it!
What characters can I submit?
Any sufficiently tragic-hero character that you have created and is this your Original Character, or "OC", is fair game for submission! If the character does not belong to you, you cannot submit it. If you feel that this is a grey area, I reccomend erring on the side of caution, but hey. I'm not your boss.
Where and when can I submit my character?
You can submit to the submissions document until 00:00 UTC on the morning of the 15th of July. For some timezones, this will stretch into the 15th, for some, this will be in the evening of the 14th. Thus, I will say for the sake of simplicity that submissions close on the 14th of July 2023.
Can I submit an image of my OC for use in the poll?
Yes, you are highly encouraged to! However, for the sake of not allowing anyone who sees this blog to potentially upload things to my google drive, you cannot do this in the document. Please send me a picture of your OC via my ask box or dms instead! If you are using picrew art or art done for you by a 3rd party, please include artist credit, as I will not post art without credit!
Can I submit an OC that is published in my own work/that I aim to publish?
Yes, but in this case, please only send me information that is already publically available about the character! I will publish all info submitted verbatim (with minor edits for formatting), and would hate to be responsible for posting spoilers!
Is it possible that my character won't make the cut?
Whilst I would love to include every submission, I do unfortunately recognise that it is likely that not everyone will be selected for the deathmatch. The reasons your character might be rejected include issues with seeding brackets, or unfortunately not reaching enough criteria of a specifically "tragic hero" (e.g. if they lack a hamartia). I strongly aim for a 100% inclusion rate but I am aware that it may not be realistically possible for me to include everyone!
What benefits can this position (entering my oc into your poll) offer me at this time?
Fun poll shenanigans!
Getting to see the OCs of likeminded creators!
An opportunity to spread propaganda of your guy!
Secret fourth reasons...
•••
If you have further questions, feel free to send an ask!
And, to reiterate:
THE SUBMISSION FORM IS HERE, AND WILL BE OPEN UNTIL THE 14TH OF JULY!
EDIT: EXTENDED TO THE 21ST OF JULY!
Thank you!

HELLO THERE do you have an OC?
Does your OC meet some sort of tragedy due to an innate flaw, be it hubris or arrogance or envy or rage or ambition or Trusting A Guy When They Should Really Not Have Trusted That Guy or some other issue?
Most importantly, do you want to make ur oc fight to the death in a poll?
Then, the Tragic Hero OC Deathmatch may be right for you! Submissions are open till the 14th of July 2023, and the submission form can be found in this handy link here, or on the pinned post on the tragic-hero-oc-deathmatch blog.
Submit your lil guy! No seriously pls submit your lil guy
