OBJECTIVES 

The GodForge Contest is organized by Mytheria, the first game that provides Create-to-Earn opportunities for artists around the world.

Artists are free to create, participate in creating the world of Mytheria from the earliest days, and to promote their mythologies and culture in general to the world. The contest promises a thrilling journey.

Artists and their artwork are recognized, for Mytheria offers huge prizes (with a total prize package of 50K$, first prize of 5K$) to show recognition for the artist’s enthusiasm and talents. If their artworks are selected to be incorporated into the fantasy world of Mytheria, the artists will earn sustainable and long-term financial benefits in the future, as their artworks could be traded and auctioned using $MYRA token.

COMPETITION RULES

Character Design

A complete submission will be a pack consisting of:

- At least 01 character design for God or Mortal from a culture of your selection.

- You can select any Pantheon from the first Five Pantheons already introduced in Mytheria (Greek, Egyptian, Nordic, Chinese, and Vietnamese), or from any culture. 

- To be specific, Mortals are followers of God you choose. Gods and other characters should be from the same tribe, and thus share the same key features and costumes.

- Gods will be of a higher tier for evaluation. The panel of judges expects higher aesthetic quality, and effective communication of the concept idea from entries for the Gods tier.

- A short paragraph describing the story/ folk behind your selected characters, the connection among them, and how they will fight in Mytheria battles.

- Multiple entries are acceptable.
