APPLICATION

► INFORMATION

APPLICATIONS ARE ALWAYS MOSTLY OPEN.

IMPORTANT: We are currently still an invite only game, but starting the 15th will be accepting non-invite applications as well!

They will be processed pretty much whenever I get to them. Currently, we have few enough incoming characters that there is no official introduction log, and folks are welcome to make their own intro log/network post at their leisure. Same goes for OOC intro posts.

THERE IS NO RESERVES PAGE.

If you'd like to functionally 'reserve' your character, you're welcome to put up a placeholder comment here on the app page and edit the application and/or app link in later.

If you do this, be sure to include "CHARACTER NAME | CHARACTER CANON | PLACEHOLDER" in the subject line + your name/contact info (plurk, discord, whatever) in the body of the placeholder.

This will be valid for one week, at which point I'll delete it and free up the character.

APPLICATIONS ARE (MOSTLY) HILARIOUSLY SIMPLE.

Most everything can be linked or summarized very briefly, with a few key exceptions:


• CRAU characters need a summary of the changes brought on by their CRAU, since the canon wiki doesn't cover that
• characters with no good wiki do need a little bit of a summary just so i know what the hell
• original characters need some sort of infopage to link me and/or a general summary
• malleable protags (e.g. commander shepard) need a general list of the choices made in canon, since the wiki doesn't cover that either
Functionally, anything that I can't figure out from a linked wiki, you need to give me a little something for.

THERE'S AN EXTRA CREDIT SECTION.

This, in effect, helps me keep in mind what flavors of horror will work best on the character cluster that we have in our game. If you don't want to fuck with it, just delete the entire 'extra credit' section. Otherwise, give me the juicy deets for any or all of the questions that strike your fancy.

IF YOUR CHARACTER HAS NO WIKI or the wiki is trash, give me like 1-2 paragraphs each about their past, their personality, and their skills/abilities if relevant - no need to go too crazy with it, i just want to know basically who the character is. if your character is a malleable protag, this is also where you include a summary of their decisions/the route taken.) <font face="courier"><b>CRAU INFO:</b></font> (if not a CRAU, delete this question. if CRAU, lemme know from where + summarize the changes to your character throughout their time in wherever the fuck else they were, including personality changes + new abilities/major skills.) <font face="courier"><b>SAMPLES:</b></font> (link two samples! looking for one with ACTION BRACKETS/PROSE and one NETWORK-STYLE, like a texting meme thread or just a really dialogue-heavy/action-light thread. can be however old. try to aim for at least 4 tags from your character if possible just so i get enough to work with. if you have no samples available, feel free to write up a fake prose top-level and network post) <font face="courier"><b>ANYTHING ELSE?:</b></font> (anything you personally want me to know about the character. can be neat trivia, game-relevant info, a complete and total shitpost, etc) <br/><blockquote>⬛ <span style="letter-spacing:2px;font-family:courier; font-size:16px;">EXTRA CREDIT.</span></blockquote> <font face="courier"><b>FEARS?:</b></font> (lemme know what your character fears, superficially or deep in their core.) <font face="courier"><b>REGRETS?:</b></font> (same as the above, but with your character's regrets) <font face="courier"><b>PERSONAL INSECURITIES?:</b></font> (what insecurities do they have about themselves as people? this may overlap into fear/regret so you're welcome to delete whichever seems to overlap too strongly) <font face="courier"><b>MOTIVATORS?:</b></font> (what would they do anything for? would they do anything to stay alive? to protect their sister, or even just random innocents? if the technicians were to want to motivate them in some way, what sort of leverage would work well?)

[misplayedmelody]

⬛ PLAYER.

NAME: Fox

CHARACTERS IN VESTIGE: n/a
INVITED BY?: Kat

⬛ CHARACTER.

NAME: Vanya Hargreeves
CANON: The Umbrella Academy (Netflix)
CANONPOINT: post-season 1

INFO: wikia link + deer app (for more info, especially re: powers because I don't like the one on the wiki)


SAMPLES:
bracket sample #1 (tag-in)
bracket sample #2 (starter)
texting sample

ANYTHING ELSE?:

⬛ EXTRA CREDIT.

FEARS?: Vanya is claustrophobic, cleithrophobic, and she fears silence. She has various fears concerning her family, but these change over time and are not worth mentioning in specifics here.

REGRETS?: She regrets attacking her sister Allison (but not the "final battle" against them all). She also regrets her poor relationship with her siblings (not entirely her own fault, but definitely partly her own fault).

PERSONAL INSECURITIES?: Being ordinary in a family of super powered people and all the fallout that stemmed from that. The aftermath of the above-mentioned final battle. She's also insecure in using her powers now that she has them.

MOTIVATORS?: She wants to be accepted. By family, friends, job, anything.

PLEASE PUT A LEASH ON KLAUS for the love of god
