About the challenge: Do you find a character's backstory interesting? Do you think that it is something you can Ace in? Then this is the contest for you! You will be given 2 characters, and you have to write a backstory for one of them!

How it works: We will be uploading 2 character images (that DO NOT belong to us, the sources are - Pinterest) later in the chapter, and you have to write a backstory for them! 

And, of course, there is a catch again *sly grin*. Your maximum word count is 800, no more! 

Don't worry, we'll give you an example!

Take this character here for example -

A possible back story for this character could be:

She always wished to walk the stars. It was inscribed in her soul, her connection to them, not to mention the fact that her eyes held galaxies, thanks to her mother. 
The day she had opened her eyes, her mother had said that she would be the definition of the cosmos herself, and since she was little, she would sit on the dewed grass, feeling its cool while gazing at the twinkling specks of light, gazing at the glitter laden sky.
Her life had changed when the moonlight had flashed over her one day, gifting her with the heart as luminescent and serene as the moon itself, and a personality as fierce and bold as the sun. 
She had been gifted with the patience of and glow of the stars, and the reason behind all of this was because even the universe knew that she had to rule it, the universe, I mean. 
The whole macrocosm was awaiting her arrival, it was awaiting the arrival of her consciousness, of her realization of who she was. They knew she had to rule the galaxies, but she didn't. She had to cross infinite galaxies to finally fulfill her deed, to finally be where she belonged.
She had walked barefoot on searing rocks, on illuminated pieces of the world. She had swum across vast oceans of ashes, and yes, she HAD eventually walked the stars, to be where she was now.
Standing here, gazing at the megacosm, HER megacosm, reminiscing about all that, she smiled to herself, whispering, 'I walked the stars, I crossed the galaxies...'

(Sorry, Ari got a bit carried away there)

Hope that cleared things up!
