PLEASE READ:
ALLOWED CHARACTERS

APPLICATIONS ARE OPEN!
Notes:
  • We now operate ROLLING APPLICATIONS that are always open. You can submit 1 character anytime in a month!

  • Our application process has become simplified due to staffing changes, please take note!

  • As apps are always open, reserves are NO LONGER REQUIRED. Please simply complete the application below and post when you are ready.

  • If two people apply for the same character, the first to post their application will be assessed. The second application will only be considered if the first is declined.

  • However, we do allow UP TO TWO versions of each character in game. The second applicant would therefore be permitted to apply for an AU version of that character if they so choose.

  • Agents of D.E.S.T.I.N.Y. or antagonist applications will open on November 4. These characters are either brainwashed (quick resolution) or coerced (slow-play resolution, long-term espionage) to help usher in the apocalypse. More information here!
Please do not link from your journal, make sure all the content is pasted into the comment(s).

OOC:

Player Name: Provide your handle
Age: Indicate you are 18+; players less than 18 years-of-age are not permitted
Contact: One or more of Plurk, PM, or Discord are needed

IC:

Character Name: Mrs. Handsome
Canon: Indicate which version if there are multiple (e.g., book to movie)
CANON POINT: Briefly describe in a sentence.
CRAU: Yes/No, please link the game/musebox the character is from
Age: Note that characters below 16 years of age should be apped with caution, as self-sufficiency/autonomy are extremely important. Heavy interdependency and neglect risks should be OOCly opt-in.
AGENT OF DESTINY: Yes/No, "Brainwashed" or "Coerced." Brainwash agents will be captured in-game and start to remember themselves within 1-2 months of play; coerced agents are knowingly helping the other side but under duress. Antagonists cannot begin gameplay until November 4, 2017, but you may feel free to apply and plot before then!
Background: Brief summary as possible, Wiki links preferred. If you wish to write your own, please us bullet points and be concise, 250-800 words. Please avoid over-describing the world or any jargon, focus more on key points in personality development (see above), changes wrought by CRAU and important CRAU relationships, and events that are likely to be regarded as offensive or sensitive material.
Powers/Abilities: Bullet list preferred. 1-400 words. Include non-human weaknesses/limits and superlative skills. Estimate numerical limits (weight, distance, speed, etc.). At the mods' discretion, destructive capacity may be scaled down based on a maximum lift of 5 tons (~2 full-sized cars).
Starting Equipment: Name your daemon, describe its form (max 50 words), and list any other items the character will be arriving with. Note highly destructive items will be controlled by metaplot. If you have critters that have powers or special abilities, please describe them briefly.
Samples: 1 required, may be from any meme, game, or setting; however, it should have been written within the last year. They should also be written from your preferred canon point.

In-Universe:

Exit Strategy: Maximum of 200 words. If your character is an agent of D.E.S.T.I.N.Y./antagonist, describe what D.E.S.T.I.N.Y. agents did to them (e.g., torture/magical brainwashing, or family held hostage/apocalypse postponed).

For non-antagonists, tell us how the D.E.S.T.I.N.Y. apocalypse and the enemy appeared in their world, then describe the technology or magic the character used to escape their world. Note any characters they are arriving with (i.e., 'group app') including usernames. This may be used for future plot, but don't worry too much about perfect consistency with your group mate/castmates/etc.— adjustments can be made later. We just want you to be thinking about it. All characters start on the beach.


Applications
Who's Allowed?


ALLOWED

✔ CRAU, or characters who have experienced life in other games/museboxes. 'Partial CRAU' is not allowed, but if you apply in fresh, you will be able to obtain memories of CRAU during special events.
✔ Original characters
✔ Canon characters who must personally appear and preferably have a speaking role in the material of the canon point (specific episodes, books, films, etc.). You cannot app a minor/supporting character and headcanon the substance of their personality, or extrapolate a character's off-screen activities from material that only their canonmates were seen in
✔ Child characters (see Age warning in the Application section; note that self-sufficiency is important and other characters and players will not be forced to face consequences for failing to take on a dependent without careful OOC plotting)
Multiple iterations of the same canon character are allowed. The two versions must be at least one with CRAU. The current maximum is 2 of each character. This may be raised by 1 if the character exists in another form of media and is determined to be sufficiently different.
✔ Non-human characters (greatest height in all directions is 30 feet; weird genitalia is fine as long as no one has to deal with it if they don't want to)
Agents of D.E.S.T.I.N.Y., allowed as of November 4

PLEASE NO

Agents of D.E.S.T.I.N.Y., those secretly affiliated with the virus
✘ Characters who must kill sentient beings (compulsion, physical appetites/dependence, etc.); there are limited NPCs and escalating ICC may render your character unplayable

Players should consider introducing themselves to players of close canon CR before they app. However, this is only required in the case of a group application (castmates arriving together from the same version and canon point of their world), or if you are apping the second version of an existing canon character. The purpose of this is not to mandate approval, but to initiate and encourage intra-cast communication.

IC:

CHARACTER NAME: nico di angelo
CANON: riordan-verse
CANON POINT: mid-trials of apollo
CRAU: Yes (Eudio)
AGE: 89 19
BACKGROUND:

Nico's canon

Within Eudio, Nico was quick to adapt to the setting. After hooking up with Vex, a dark fae, to lose his virginity, it quickly became easy for Nico to have sex with others. He maintained his cool and somewhat creepy exterior personality, but began to open up more and more to others, especially as he began to make friends. With the arrival of Percy Jackson, with whom Nico had originally had been in love, Nico soon found himself falling back in love with the son of Poseidon despite having a relationship with Will Solace.

Nico struggled with having a relationship with both, but eventually and thanks to Will, was able to accept that he was in love with both of them. Meanwhile, his relationship with Vex deepened considerably as they became very close friends. Other relationships include those with Loki (616), Rafa, and Kavinsky, though the relationship with the latter was a bit strained.


POWERS:

›› Geokinesis → can control the earth to raise rocks and stone, cause earthquakes strong enough to destroy buildings and create large fissures in the ground.
›› Necromancy → can raise the dead in the forms of zombies, ghosts, and skeletons. He is powerful enough to create whole squadrons of undead soldiers. He can speak to the dead telepathically, release souls of the living, and determine if a person is near death. He can sense when immortals are dying and knows when a person's soul is being judged in the Underworld. He can manipulate ghosts, and reduce living people (including other demigods) into ghosts and banish them to the Underworld.
›› Fear Aura → can generate an intense aura of fear and death around him. The more upset he is the stronger this aura becomes and can cause an intense cold to spread around him.
›› Death Trance → can put himself in a trance by eating seeds of pomegranates from Persephone's garden in the Underworld. This trance allows him to survive without air, food, or water aside from the seeds.
›› Osteokinesis → can raise and manipulate bones.
›› Umbrakinesis → can manipulate darkness and shadows. He can shoot darkness, create clouds and shields, or use shadows to heal minor wounds. He can travel vast distances by jumping between shadows (Shadow Traveling). However, if he exerts himself he could slip into a coma or disappear entirely.
›› Hypnokinesis → can travel through dreams or force people to sleep with deep dreams. He sleeps deeply as well, using sleep to heal and regain energy after using his powers.
›› Healing Rate → heals faster than most mortals, especially when eating Ambrosia or drinking Nectar.


STARTING EQUIPMENT: his clothes (black and torn jeans, a black Punisher tshirt, black converse, and his black bomber jacket), his Stygian iron sword, his silver skull ring, his camp beads, and various jewelry he's received as gifts in Eudio. His daemon will be a raven with blue eyes.

SAMPLES: xist test drive, eudio dreamsex

In-Universe:

EXIT STRATEGY:

As Eudio began to fall apart (in a combination of stormy skies and earthquakes that made him wonder if the gods had finally arrived), Nico was able to grab hold of his boyfriend, Will, and with what he basically had on him, ported them both to a new location. Problems arose, however, and in the Void, Nico was separated from Will ( who arrived safely but before him ). Eventually, Nico escapes the shadows as well, but only after too long spent within them. He'll arrive a bit worse for wear, but otherwise okay.


MORALITY:

Chaotic Good. Nico tends to be the kind of person who will ultimately do the right thing, but on his own terms and no one else's. He's spent much of his life separated from others, prompting a darker outlook. Coupled with his background as Death's own son, Nico has a firm sense of justice, however is often unwilling to measure it out himself as he believes that every person is responsible for their own actions. He's protective of innocents and people he cares about, but if he feels he has to kill someone for the greater good, he's not above doing so.


WAR ATTITUDES:

Nico has lived through at least 3 wars by now. He was born at the advent of WW2, in Italy, where certain attitudes taught Nico about the world. His mother was eventually a casualty, which likely built his belief in protecting others and Nico is not afraid of fighting. He's even willing to sacrifice himself in certain circumstances; he was willing to sacrifice his own health to assassinate someone waging war on his camp, even though he didn't feel any particular affinity towards that camp. He also is a skilled warrior who combines swordsmanship with necromancy when he needs to.


INTIMATE RELATIONSHIPS:

Thanks to his time spent in Eudio, Nico actually enjoys intimate relationships. He has one with his boyfriend Will Solace as well as with a few others. He needs no prompting to be intimate and even seeks it on occasion.


COMMUNITY CONTRIBUTIONS:

As the son of Hades, Nico is adept at caring for the dead, such as providing burials/shroud burnings, caring after graveyards, putting spirits to rest, and the like. He's also good with fighting and thus would be a good guard. Though he's not prone to leading, he will if necessary and if he has a strong enough belief that he is needed. Finally, Nico has experience with working retail in a record store, in Eudio.
