I would love to join but i think restrictions about what 'type' of character is bad way to go. I think something like that just would stagnant creativity.I think a better option would be something like "design a character that uses green". Rather than limit the creative capacity, a brief like this leaves much more room for exploration and diversity than "design a space guy alien". Everyone will have a different interpretation of what a green character can be ie, an alien, a tree lizard, a slime monster, or hell maybe it's just an ordinary character that uses an interesting green colour palate in a unique way. I find this leads not not only a lot more enjoyment imo, but also can help broaden ones own understanding in design and art in general.
I think this is for those who want to practice designing more than overall art. Like you were doing it for a customer. Concept artist is my dream and this is ideal practice for it.
Also I myself get easily owerwhelmed by the amount of possibilities and decisions to make if the kickstarter idea is too vague.
But what you propose isn't a bad idea. I would be interested to see what people with more imagination and inspiration than me can come up with. And on a good day I would certainly try to participate too.

I'd like to propose a simple character I'm attempting to write into a story.
He is a man of a lean yet muscular persuasion, he wears a vest 3-piece suit (ya know what I mean?)with his sleeves rolled up. The suit is white with very thin black stripes. His has a fuzzy afro with thick sideburns and an unconnected beard, it is a closely trimmed beard. His shoes are either regular or combat boots. Generic I know, but it's a rough cut.
