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.

OOC:

PLAYER NAME: Kit
AGE: 28
CONTACT: PM

IC:

CHARACTER NAME: Leo Valdez
CANON: Camp Half-Blood Chronicles
CANON POINT: House of Hades, as he leaves Ogygya.
CRAU: No
AGE: 16
BACKGROUND:
wiki

POWERS:
🔥 Superhuman Strength/Durability/Agility/Reflexes - While he's not as strong as many other demigods his strength is probably around 30% higher than a regular human of the same stature and build.
🔥 Technokinesis - Far above average ability to understand and manipulate anything mechanical. He can sense flaws in things of this nature. In addition to this, he is able to sense traps but this is strongest with mechanical traps.
🔥 Pyrokinesis - Can super heat fire, create walls of fire in defense. He is able to heat it to the point it is considered supernova but this can be fatal to him and chars him. The charring is relevant because he is otherwise immune to fire.
🔥 Heat Sensitivity - He can sense heat, flames and metals and even use them as a form of thermal vision to navigate in the dark
STARTING EQUIPMENT:
- Daemon Name: Calypsod
His daemon is an Archimedes Sphere. It looks a bit like this but will be smaller, about the size of a standard softball. It's golden in color with clear mechanical inner workings.
- His clothes
- His magical tool belt (it was given to him by his father. when he reaches in he can retrieve items that are in work shops just about anywhere. Large items cause a cooldown period. Big items like chainsaws or magical items cannot be pulled from the tool belt).
- His 3lb hammer that is his primary weapon. He usually summons it from his toolbelt

SAMPLES:
Action
Network

In-Universe:

EXIT STRATEGY: Not long after Leo leaves Calypso on Ogygya, something is definitely wrong at sea. There's a storm rolling in but it doesn't seem quite natural and soon it appears as if the sky is ripping itself apart As the waves become increasingly violent, he's knocked from his raft. He thinks that it must be some God or spirits that he's angered. Not long after that, he sees what he assumes are some of Gaea's minions. There's little fight that he's able to give while being pummeled by waves. He is pretty sure that in his time with Calypso that somehow Gaea has gained more power and that the world as he knew it is coming to an end. During the struggle, he's drawn closer to a swirling vortex in the water and it's either facing the minions further or letting himself be pulled in. He opts for the latter.
MORALITY: Leo has an extremely high sense of morality. He cares deeply for his friends and he would do anything for them. It's unlikely that he would ever betray anyone. He also does his best to ensure the safety of those he can protect. In actuality, his views of his own morality are in sync with reality. He strives to do the right things and he acts selflessly on a regular basis, disregarding how he might be sad in efforts to make others happy and for the benefit of those around him.
WAR ATTITUDES: Leo doesn't particularly go looking for fights. However, he is very willing to defend himself and others. He is quite clever and will often try to talk his way out of fights but he will also talk himself into one when it is necessary. In this regard, he would be interested in missions that are for the betterment of people but less so ones that don't have an objective that seems to be proactive in that sense.
INTIMATE RELATIONSHIPS: Leo is very boisterous and outgoing. He always seems to be smiling and making jokes. He is not afraid to make a fool of himself to get people to laugh. He's an extremely loyal friend and will do anything for his friends. He doesn't have that hard of a time making friends either. He does, however, struggle to let down the facade of his smile to show people the full picture of himself. He's internally quite sad and feels alone in the world despite having friends who love him. He is always on the outside, in his opinion, the third wheel, the fifth wheel, the seventh wheel. Meeting Calypso is one of the first times that he had been honest about who he is and really deeply connected to someone emotionally. He'll be missing this connection sorely and eager to find a way back to her and his friends.
COMMUNITY CONTRIBUTIONS: Leo would be most interested in finding ways to contribute that can be done from a workshop. While he is a capable fighter and explorer, he is most comfortable and useful making things for others to use on missions. He's more than willing to join any mission that needs his particular skill or power set but what he will seek out is a place to set up shop and build things.
