• Questions
  Ask and we shall answer!

• How many prizes can one win?
  Answer: For submitting a worthy entry, you will get a participation prize. If you win, you'll get the participation reward plus choice pack. For every entry that is added to the discord server, you will also obtain 1 gold.

• I'm not great at digital drawings, can I do them by hand?
  Answer: Yes, just make sure it's scanned properly (high resolution) and has a clean look (not blurry, grainy, etc).

• Are any of the reward headgears animated?
  Answer: Flying Galapago, Black Witch Hat, and Sorcerer Hood are animated

• Can my entries win more than once?
  Answer: You can win only up to two times, regardless of entries. For example, you submitted 4 amazing entries, we can only pick 2 as the best.

• How do GMs judge entries?
  Answer: Each GM must individually pick what they feel are winning entries. Once the judging period is over, the entries that received the most votes wins. Keep in mind beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and thus every GM has their own criteria, likes, dislikes, etc.

Disclaimers:
By posting your entry, you agree to the following:

- Submitted entries can be used by the GM Team for the server in any way shape or form, in or outside the game (forum, RMS, HeRO's facebook page, etc).
- The GM Team reserves the right to adjust prizes at any time as they see fit for balance purposes.
- Any entry which is determined to be antagonistic to HeRO Server or its players will be disqualified. In-game or forum punishments may also apply.
- Rewards for each submission chosen to be added ingame will be given along with participation rewards, winning rewards, etc. No additional OCA will be rewarded if an entry previously not set to be added is chosen to be added after all, after two weeks of the contest's end.
- The judgement of the contest organizers is final.
