ALLOWED CHARACTERS
Notes:Please do not link from your journal, make sure all the content is pasted into the comment(s).
- 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!
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?
✔ 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
✘
✘ 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.
Leanne | Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance
PLAYER NAME: Nel
AGE: 30s
CONTACT: This journal and scaredsummoner at plurk
IC:
CHARACTER NAME: Leanne
CANON: Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance
CANON POINT: Before she wakes up from her sleep.
CRAU: No
AGE: Unknown but around 75 human years, 17-18 Heron years
AGENT OF DESTINY: No.
BACKGROUND
POWERS: Bullet list preferred if there are multiple. 1-300 words.
- Galdrars are songs that are used mainly to heal, boost morals, spirits and emotions. There are a few that are more 'aggresive' in nature and one that can kill her if she uses it. These galdrars of course won’t be used without mun permission. Also, she is a Heron Laguz and because she is one, she can change into the form of a pure white Heron and can fly in that form as well as her normal form. She can also sense the amount of Order and Chaos within people she interacts with (with the majority being Chaotic).
- Because she is a Heron she can sense or ‘see’ people’s emotions, the state of their being and their thoughts. None of this will be done without explicit mun permission.
- A fact about herons are the world’s most fragile race of people. Her bones are very fragile that any forms of strong sudden pressure can easily break them, i.e. punching somebody will result in her breaking all the bones in her hand. She also has to stay in a certain type of environment or else she will fall gravely ill or worse, die due to the environment. One thing that heavily effects the environment for a Heron is the amount of Chaos within it. Herons are very sensitive to Chaos that when coming into contact with Chaos of any form, the best case is that they will fall ill and pass out. Worst case is that they will die due to the exposure. Also because she has been sleeping for the past 20+ years of her life, she is notably weaker than the rest of her clan.
- Since she was raised by Serenes, Leanne is more in tune with Nature and can easily commune and control it. Her bond with Nature is strong enough that she no longer needs to verbalize her words in order to commune with it. She mainly uses this ability to ask for food, ask for protection, and find a good place to sleep.
STARTING EQUIPMENT:
Daemon: Black pug puppy named Ikki.
Serenes: She has some seeds and saplings from the forest to grow and build a new home with.
SAMPLES: TDM for Garden
EXIT STRATEGY: Even though Serenes was closed off from the rest of the world due to the Ancient Magics, it could sense the impending destruction and despair. The elder trees made the choice to disobey the Heron Queen's final wishes to keep Leanne safe deep within its care and send her to a safer place. Using the last of its powers, Serenes carefully made raft made from fallen trees, covered in moss and flowers to send her sleeping form off to someplace safer and away from the impending destruction which was attacking the rest of Tellius.
