APPLICATIONS.
APPLICATIONS ARE CURRENTLY CLOSED.
Applications open on July 24 at 12:01AM EST. Please post your applications on this page!
You may app up to two characters per round. The total amount of characters you may have at this time is four. You may have two characters from the same canon, however these characters can not have met or will have no reason to do so in the future. We will decide this on a case-by-case basis.
Reserves are not a requirement. However, a reserve is an excellent way to state your intentions and to give us a heads up to research your canon and character so that we can process it faster.
If you are asked for revisions, then you have seventy-two hours to reply to the comment with what we have asked.
If you would like details on a rejection then you may PM the mod account or reply to the comment and we will be as detailed as possible.

_________applications. ooc info; Name: (Your online handle.)Age: (Your age. Unfortunately, players below the age of 16 are not allowed.) Ways to contact: (Email, AIM, Plurk, etc.) Characters currently played: (List of characters currently played in the game. Character limit is currently 4.) character info; Character Name: (Your character's full name, in Western order. The characters may call themselves whatever they wish ICly, but for organization's sake we need this.)Canon: (Name of your character's canon.) Canon Link: (Link to your character's history/canon, i.e. wikipedia articles/informative fansites/etc.. If it's a particularly obscure canon with very little information available, you may write your own section to give us an overview of your character's history and world background.) Canon Point: (The point from which your character is pulled i.e. chapter 500, just before the final battle, after confessing their eternal love, etc.) Character Age: (Your character's age, or approximation thereof. Characters of all ages are allowed, though we request that if a character is under the age of 10, you fill out an additional section detailing their suitability for living in a post-apocalyptic world.) Character Suitability: (For characters under the age of 10 only. We need to know why the Caretakers would think such a young child would be strong enough to survive a zombie-infested earth and help to rebuild the world.) Personality: (The meat of the app. Tell to us your character's motivations, their likes and dislikes, strengths, weaknesses, relationships, and anything else you think is important in letting us know what makes them tick. A bunch of words doesn't always mean a good application, and we won't ask for an college essay, but we do require that this section be at least 350 words long, to show us you know what you're talking about and can elaborate appropriately.) Powers & Abilities: (Briefly describe any supernatural powers or abilities your characters may have i.e. healing spells, super strength, teleportation. Their powers will, of course, be severely dampened upon arriving, but perhaps, if seen as worthy, they can wake up to find it more potent than before.) Items on their Person: (List any items you character would have had with them upon being taken. Your character has to be holding or touching these items somehow for them to be brought with them. For example, items in the pockets of clothing or in a backpack will be brought along with you. Summoned weapons will also be brought, but they cannot be put back.) samples; ALL SAMPLES MUST BE SET IN THE GAME'S UNIVERSE.First Person Sample: (This is to showcase your character's dialogue, so while you may use [bracket action] when needed, this should be at least 5 spoken sentences. Remember, a sentence has to have a subject and a verb. Monosyllabic sounds do not count toward the minimum. If you're having difficulty thinking up a sample, you may request a Q&A for this portion instead, where we will give you 5 questions to be answered ICly.) Third Person Sample: (This is a prose portion, meant to showcase your character's thoughts and actions, as well as your own writing ability. Samples must be at least 300 words. Remember to use proper spelling, grammar, and paragraphs.) Additional Information: (Questions, comments, and additional miscellaneous facts about your character may be added here!) | ||
Samples
First Person Sample: I am not a work of fiction!
[ An unassuming man in a well-used beige overcoat appears, hair dishevelled and expression distantly sullen. He drops a pamphlet titled, Fictional Realitities and YOU with an air of stoic distate. ]
I am at a loss, I -- [ This wasn't supposed to happen. They'd won and he was going to return to Heaven as the new sheriff, as Dean put it... so why was he suddenly trapped here? ] I'm not supposed to be here.
[ The angel applies a bit too much force to the buttons of his cellphone before pursing his lips, his tone lowering. ]
Although it would appear I am... outside of my coverage zone.
[ Snapping shut his cellphone, he returns his attention to the feed, his expression tight and vaugely perturbed. ]
This device has informed me that I am to participate in a Human Regenesis Program, despite the fact that I am not human. I am expected to believe that these -- [ The man gestures to a pile of books titled Supernatural, as well as a series of video cases. ] Are evidence of my existence is but a figment of a human's imagination, not the Winchester Gospel as I know it to be.
[ Yeah, Castiel's denial might be more than problematic. ]
Third Person Sample: Castiel had entered the ruined structure without question, seeking out his friend simply because he had been asked, and the urgent tone in which the request was delivered gave him reason to feel... concerned. They'd been through much together, he and the hunter. It wouldn't do to abandon him in his time of need now. Not while he is so filled with a sense of mission and accomplishment from having averted the apocalypse, even if it did end with their arrival in this strange place.
Each scrape and stomp of his footsteps echoed as the angel picked his way through the dusty, abandoned ruin of a long-forgotten farm, littered with broken skeletons of rotting, wooden furniture and crumbling brick fireplaces and surrounded at all sides by overgrown, wild fields. Each step disturbed layers of dust, clouds of aged, powdered mortar snaking around his ankles, moonlight filtering through shattered and filthy windows to illuminate every particle suspended in the air.
He listened to the silence that hung in the air for a while, the only sign of life being the way his blue eyes scanned the room, his form rigid and still in the darkness.
"Dean?" Castiel asked into the empty halls. This was the spot, wasn't it? The 'rendezvous point' the hunter had requested? He wasn't able to sense his presence, not by the usual means at least -- those sigils he'd carved into his rib cage worked rather effectively to obfuscate him from even his detection, forcing him to seek Dean out by more traditional means (using his eyes) or ask using more of the modern (using a cell phone). Except those didn't work either.
Castiel turned sharply, alarm etching itself in creases around his eyes as he focused into the darkness, squinting to pick out the form nearly indistinct from the shadow it stood in. The angelic blade slipped from his sleeve, his fingers grasping the hilt easily enough.
"Show yourself."
Additional Information: N/A
REVISION REQUEST.
For instance, his fire abilities would be reduced to starting a fire roughly equivalent to that of a lighter, perhaps a little more resilient to the wind. While he may be able to escape notice of the undead immediately due to what remains of his cloaking power, it would not last long and it would not affect other characters. His healing abilities would also be dampened as well. Bruises and minor cuts would not heal instantly, but they would heal a little faster than average, and his durability and strength would be just above the human average. For augmented healing, a broken leg would take four weeks to heal rather than your average six.
His teleportation and smiting powers would also no longer be available. Telekinesis would be limited to moving small objects and that in itself would feel quite taxing.
Are these guidelines for his powers acceptable?
