I can do that, but checking on the thread itself to be sure Specter knows it's archived.

Chat?

Here's a potential character theme song. You can take it or you can not take it; I don't mind what you do with it. Not specifying what I see and hear because they're your characters and if you can't feel any connection between the song and your characters then it just means my interpretation is different than yours no matter how many times I listen to it. I just listened to it a few times to verify my own feelings on it.

Titled "Last Dance" by Eve. There are English subtitles

A lot of emotions from the theme song fitting? I hope that's what's the case.

-Galaxian-

Okay, I see.

Lol you don't need to, the way SS names Chinese characters is very basic, like I said. Just think of some cool mythology term and translate it to Chinese, and boom

Nope, the full name should be 4 characters long at most (conventionally), with that format being with 2 characters being the family name upfront and 2 characters being the actual name. That could definitely be a title though. Other name formats: 1 character surname with 1 character name, 1 character surname with 2 characters name, and 2 characters surname with 1 character name
Examples fitting these:
-Gao Changgong (Gao is the surname with only one character, Changgong is the name with 2)
-Sima Yi (Sima is the surname with two characters, Yi is the name with one character; usually names with only one character are not just used as such. e.g. Sima Yi was not called "Yi"; he was called "Sima Yi" or his courtesy name, which doesn't apply to SS)
-Zuo Fan (Zuo is the 1-character surname, Fan is the 1-character name)
-Wangquan Fugui (Wangquan is the 2-character surname, Fugui is the 2-character name)

But SS does not take these into consideration for the most part. It does not, however, make up names that are more than two-characters for Chinese characters, e.g. Tonghu (young tiger), Zilong (purple dragon), Chunli (beautiful spring, though technically in order it would be spring beautiful), Xianglong (flying dragon)

The most consideration SS does put into these names is that it seems to have focused on the zodiac sign for Shiryu, and then design for Dohko (the emblem on his back that Shiryu had first and presumably was carried over to Dohko). The surnames seem to be nonexistent in SS.

To summarize, the two factors you should probably consider are:
-Maximum 2 characters
-Zodiac sign goes into meaning of name

I have no idea, I'll tell you when I find out tho

I think it's Oct 13-15th
