Inspired by Smashtasm
A/N
Starlll: Oh my god! You're actually READING this? What's WRONG with you-I mean... WELCOME! People who have read the original fanfic, and newcomers alike, welcome to my new story, 'Smash Bros: The Golden Days'!
Phy: Oh lord... are you SERIOUSLY starting a fanfic? Don't you have another one that's been on hold for MONTHS?
Starlll: ...Well, if memory serves, that's how I started the original Sci-Phy. It turned out pretty well, too! Anyway, just to clear a few things up:
1) This is NOT a Smashtasm rip-off. It was inspired by it, but it only borrows a few elements from the series.
2) You do NOT have to have read the first Sci-Phy to read this one. In fact, I actually recommend that you don't read the first one.
3) I am accepting OC's. Just fill out a short character sheet, and I'll see if I can fit them in. While I'll try to include all OC's, some will have smaller roles than others. Still, please, send them in!

Phy closed the email. He rolled his eyes at it, but didn't delete it right away. All of his other mail from before had been wiped from the system's memory. Nearly all of his personal data was erased. Contacts, stickers, trophies, even his Win/Loss record was down the drain (though, some would say that the last one was for the best).
The boy had also lost his custom stage, which he used as a type of headquarters. Everyone had lost their stages. A player had to pay five hundred tokens to make a custom stage, one hundred extra to include furniture and extra features, and twenty-five more to get a CD player for music (CD's could be won in battles, or bought either by stores or vendors). They had to pay an extra 500 to upgrade to a Medium-sized stage, and another 1000 to get the final upgrade into a Large. Players generally started out with 1000 tokens, as a gift for making a new account. More often than not, they used it to make a custom stage, not unlike Phy.
Unfortunately, because everyone had lost their stages when the system had crashed, many players would have to start all over again. Players who lost their stages were given a free Small stage, all extras free of charge. It seemed like a nice deal to those who had just started playing, but Veteran characters who strove to get a Large stage were nearly in tears at the prospect of having to start over.
Phy didn't mind having a small stage. In fact, he preferred it. He didn't even know what he'd fill it with, had he been given a large stage. He had gotten a desk to go with his messaging system (a fairly recent inclusion before the crash, which made it possible to talk to friends in-game, not unlike emails), a CD-player, a large trunk for stashing unused stickers and tokens, and he was set.
Still, it made him sad that he couldn't contact his friends. All of his contacts had been lost, and he had no way to contact them. Unless, of course, he had memorized their friend codes. Unfortunately, the codes were twelve digits long, so as to avoid Spam-bots flooding their messaging systems with friend invitations.
Phy took one last look down at his avatar's short, familiar body (Ness always fit him better than Lucas), headed out of his private stage, and into the closest public server. If all of his contacts were wiped, so be it. But he definitely wouldn't sit around, moping. A new list. A new Win/Loss record.
A new adventure.

So, like I said, if you want your OC to appear, just fill out this character sheet. Most people like to base it off themselves, and the character they usually use, but it's up to you.
Character Sheet:
Name:
Personality:
Plays as: (Character and color)
Fighting Strategy: (Overly-cautious? Charge head-on? Spam attacks? Abuse items?)
Plays the Game Because: (Wants to have fun? Wants to be a hacker? Wants to be a Moderator?)
Fighting Level: (1-9)
For example, for Phy, it would be:
Name: Phy
Personality: Childish at times, but very determined when things get tough.
Plays as: Ness, Yellow
Fighting Strategy: Often uses 'Noob tactics', but aspires to get better.
Plays the Game Because: He wants to be a Moderator, but isn't good enough at the game. He lied about his age, because he was two years under the limit (you have to be 13 years to play). Everybody knows it, but nobody enforces the rule.
Fighting Level: 3.

One last thing. I promise, this is the last one. A friend of mine (she knows who she is) already has an OC submitted. She doesn't have to re-send her character sheet; I still remember her backstory.
Don't forget to review!
