FAQ
Iām under 18 can i still participate?
Yes! As long as youāre 13+ you can participate.How much will the zine cost?
The zine will be free for everyone to enjoy!Iāve never participated in a zine before, can I still join?
Absolutely! Everyone is welcome to sign up whether you've been in a zine or not. As long as you can work with other contributors and complete projects on timeCan moderators also participate?
Yes! Moderators are allowed to be contributors on the project. If you wish to be a mod and an artist/writer there will be a section in the mod form for you to fill out!How many pages will the zine be?
Depending on our numbers it can change but roughly 40-50 pages!Can I submit nsfw in my application?
We would prefer you didn't since this is a sfw zine! However there's freedom to submit more suggestive works if you wish. If you find yourself without any sfw chiluc to submit, any completed Diluc or Childe drawings/writing pieces will work!An emergency has come up after I've been selected can I get an extension or drop out?
You always have the option to drop out for any reason, no judgement. But we'd love if you communicated with us first because we might be able to push some dates and deadlines around and work with you!Do I have to stick to canon designs?
Headcanon designs are definitely welcomed! We love to see all the different designs and hcs people have so don't feel pressured to stick to canon.Does one of the completed writing works have to be chiluc? Or can I submit 3 completed works and an unfinished chiluc sample?
If you have completed works then obviously we'd prefer that but as long as one of the writing pieces has chiluc, completed or not we'll accept it.Is there any theme other than chiluc?
We don't have a particular theme you have to stick to. Any chiluc content is fine but if you want to follow a theme you can go along with the idea of chiluc sending letters to each other (what the zine is branded as) but it's not something we're really strict about!Does this Zine only have Chiluc?
We are not an exclusively Chiluc Zine, so we will be showing alternative dynamics like Diluchi.How will I know if I get chosen?
Weāll send emails out to everyone that applied. The email will tell you if you were accepted or not.Do I need discord to participate?
Yes, we need to be able to contact everyone. Discord is the easiest way to do this, rather than being across multiple platforms!
