*-- Moon*

 Hello, there! I am Moon. Since you're here, I might as well go over a few things about what to expect from me. I am a theatre kid who has been writing and painting since a young age. While I don't use paint as my main medium any more, I do at least know how to help people improve if they want it. That's what a judge is really for, isn't it?

When I'm not writing or running a theatre, I typically play ffxiv, read, or watch anime.

</details>### OCT Experience

---

 I have... been around for a while. After checking the Annals of dA, I can confirm my first OCT experience was auditioning for Escape from Nevara in 2009. The first one I made it into was Dark Horse Tournament with the oldest OC I have. The first time I judged was Idrisfall Tournament in 2011. I have most been in written OCTs because I am too much of a perfectionist to turn in my drawings in a timely manner, but I did try.

 Since my return to the Scene in 2023 I have judged... 3 OCTs? BRAND, King of Hares, and now Bifrost Terminal. I have competed in 2: TVS OCT(finalist) and Isekai OCT(ongoing).

### Judging Expectations

---

I will try to be succinct.

 When I am judging I look for Flow, Grammar, and Clarity.

1. 1. Flow: How the story came together. Is it cohesive? (ie. does it make sense, does it include your world, does it consider the setting) Were some things rushed while others dragged out too long? Did the arc complete satisfactorily within the parameters?
    2. Grammar: Punctuation, Variance of sentence length, and use of more than just an oxford comma are the most clear. Essentially: Is this just one giant run-on sentence? Or does the formatting support the flow instead of detracting from it.
    3. Clarity: How well is the story told? Could I tell what was going on? Was the prompt met? Did the opponent get enough screen time to feel like a part of the story instead of a requirement?
