Introduction Post:
Hey there, lovely viewers! It's your favorite holographic host, Vex, back once again with a deal that'll knock your socks off! Have any of you ever dreamed of writing the story for the next big entry in your favorite game series, but think the bigshots up top will never even acknowledge your great idea? Well, have we got a site for YOU! Here at darkrazor03.com, you and other up-and-coming superfans can work together to create the fanfic, fan-game, or fan-imation of your dreams!
How does it work? Simple: you just jot down whatever ideas you have for your fanfic/game/animation onto the blog, and eventually, someone else with the creative talents and editing know-how you need will come along and read your post. They might even tell their friends about it, too, and since many hands make light work, that means you'll have a whole crew to help you finish your product in no time!
After you publish your magnum opus online, maybe, just maybe, someone who works at one of the big companies who make the franchise you're writing about will come across it, show it to their boss. Then, come release date, they'll have put your idea in the real thing! So, whenever you show the game/movie/book with your idea in it to your friends and family, you can point and say, "That part right there? That was me!"
So, what are you waiting for? Grab your keyboard and mouse, click that search bar, and go to darkrazor03.com today! The next big name in fanfiction could be YOURS!

"Vex" is an AI genenrated character
Reflection Answers:
1: I disclosed the AI nature of the character at the end of the video, so that it wouldn't distract from everything else.
2: Honestly, I'm not sure what the disclosure cost me. If I had to guess, I'd say it costed my viewers' trust, since using AI generated characters is usually a sign of laziness among content creators.
3. The character image was the only thing I used AI for. For everything else, I wrote the lines myself and copied the other images off of google.
4. I would not be comfortable if my character gained a massive 100k follower count. Not only because I don't like how the world is using AI characters more and more, but because my character was directly inspired by another character from a real franchise, so I worry that people would come after me with copyright claims and things like that.
