Doc

First off, let me apologize if this is in the wrong place. I couldn't figure out where to put it so thought here is where it would go.

Anyway, so my friend issued me a challenge. She wants me to make an RP character who is male and is either shirtless with barely anything on and absolutely nothing left to the imagination, wearing no pants or underwear unless its a kilt or the like, or just almost to fully naked.

With me being the curious and laid back person I am, I instantly accepted but soon realized I'm not sure how to go about doing this as well as I thought. On top of that, I'm going to need to RP as the character nonsexually. So, I'm asking for help making this character, and deciding between the few ideas I have.

My ideas are...
An angel, a tribal warrior, a barbarian style warrior, a fairy, a were-something or shapeshifter, a mage, and a super hero or villain.
And after reading all the rules, it seems I can go with pretty much anything since it's non sexual, but I don't RP as characters below 14 or above 22 is all i know. Also, thanks to anyone who helps me out.
This would be the place to put it! Hmm...not sure why nudity would be a requirement, but have you thought about an android? machines probably wouldn't care about clothing or want to be sexual XD hope this helps!

Ooh, nice challenge! I think I may have a few suggestions, specifically when Tribal Warriors or Superheroes/Villains are concerned.

I actually have a character (group of characters) that are from a tribal nation in the middle of a jungle that have been hidden away inside a basin in a large mountain range. They have a rich history that I am currently working on but all of them wear very light clothing; mostly lava-lavas, wraps and other loose but tribal get ups. I drew my inspiration from a combination of places. Specifically I started with the Aztec and other meso-american cultures, went on to the color scheme and style of the Waterbenders of the Avatar series and tossed in the mystic tribal aspects of design the Twili people of the Legend of Zelda : Twilight Princess game. The finished product resulted in a character like this.

For more on them you can see here and here.
If you want to make a character like them just ask, and if you want to know more about them just ask again!

As for Superhero/Villain who may or may not be a shapeshifter perhaps think about something along the line of this? You never said he had to be completely human, perhaps he is some sort of human-hybrid or a living suit that allow the wearer powers? He could be from a sci-fi setting or he could be from a more fantastical setting, ultimately it is up to you.

She likes it. That's the only reason. She's just that simple :0
Does she have a time or setting preference? That would be really helpful to know :)

I had to chop this all down with my phone oh boy. Anyway, I saw that tribal character a couple weeks ago actually. He looks really creative and interesting, you did a great job!

Also, I talked to her about if it has to be human or not, her exact words were, "he needs to have at least his body be that of a human man."

Ideas for tribal and morph suit... I have a couple for each.

Tribal: One idea has a mythical talisman representing a godly beast and they can summon said beasts power to gain it's abilities and/or transform into a small humanoid version.

The other idea is a young man with an outfit made of a some feathers tied here and there. He'd use a special ability he received from the village elder as a blessing. The ability increases his speed, makes him lighter, and makes him a bit stronger too.

Morph: One idea I have is a teen with a demon inside of him that comes out like black sludge quickly coming out of his pores. It'll completely cover him and make him look like a demon or suit of armor.

The other idea is just a tight suit made of the guy's blood. It's like Spider-Man's black symbiote but out of his body and solid blood.

Lemme know if you want some help fleshing these ideas out more I have a few similarities with both that you might be interested in hearing! ;D

Well, then you have to think. Where would be a time/place for them to be walking around naked? A nudist, exotic dancer, or a live art model(the kind students get to draw in class for credit) would be good for a modern day take? Or like you and Virus were discussing, there are plenty of historical warriors who went naked. I believe the Celtic warriors like Picts and Norse Berserkers went into battle half clothed (Some depictions show no clothes at all, only tattoos and weapons lol). Just try to narrow it down to a time and place that would be plausible :3

I think a nudist or naked/mostly naked warrior would be best... Hmm... I guess time would be either modern, future, or fantasy. That narrows it down I suppose.

Sounds like all you've got so far is a costume, or lack thereof, and absolutely everything else is still up in the air... Which is most things! This might be of use for fleshing out other details: http://www.rprepository.com/community/newspost.php?post=220

I'm sorry, but that post made me chuckle all too much. Also, flesh out... Pun intended? And thank you!
