OrpheusJoshua 126 Posted January 10 The fan-led Kingdom Hearts online convention, March Caprice, has announced new information ahead of its arrival in March 2024.

Its goal is to showcase and support the incredible hard work, projects, and talents of the community through the uniting force of the series. We invite all who wish to show off their latest content, ideas, and more to participate and join us in celebrating this incredible series!"

DestinysUnion 23 Posted January 10 (edited) Ooh, neat! I was just wondering when this would be announced. XD I've never partaken in March Caprice before, but I'm considering joining this year. How does the theme work exactly? It is just the visual theme of the event and is separate from the user-submitted content? Or does all the writings, illustrations, cosplay, music, etc. have to carry the theme of "Data?" EDIT: another question! I know it says only one art piece per person, but would it be alright to submit to multiple categories? For example, one illustration and one writing?

The theme is just for the visual theme of the event. Submissions can be anything, even if they aren't related to the theme. You can submit once per every category, so an art piece and a writing piece would be great! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'll definitely look into signing up then! One more question, do all written pieces have to take place in the KH universe? I noticed one of the rules mentions creating a "Kingdom Hearts-adjacent" work, so I wasn't sure if full-blown AU's were allowed, or if we should only work within the established canon setting. Sorry I'm reading too deep into all the details. lol I don't want to accidentally break any rules. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Original content (be it art of OCs, original music, etc.) are very encouraged! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrightStar07 0 Posted January 12 Hi! Was wondering if I can submit any time on the 13th (tomorrow) because I just saw the submission page today, but I might be able to finish a story for the writers room before midnight tomorrow. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
