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!)

Powers/Abilities/Items

[personal profile] doesntmind 2012-07-09 03:03 am (UTC)(link)
Powers & Abilities: The vast majority of David's physical abilities stem from his nature as an android, and will therefor be entirely null and void, or at least scaled down so that they are within the scope of a normal human. On the other hand, how his brain operates will remain basically unchanged.

ABILITIES:
» extremely strong (capable of lifting up to 700 lbs.) → David will now be only slightly stronger than would be expected of a human male his size
» extremely coordinated → while David will still be very coordinated in his human body, he will find it difficult to recreate some of his previous accomplishments, like playing basketball while riding a bike
» enhanced vision, allowing him to see in low light and zoom in x30 → David will merely have perfect regular human sight
» extremely advanced supercomputer → for the most part, David's brain will operate in the same way, and he'll retain his intelligence and eidetic memory
» fluent in every known language, and is capable of deconstructing new, unknown ones
» virtual immortality → David will be in a human body that will age and take wounds just like any other human
» miscellaneous training in subjects like medical care, finances, sports, technology and sciences

WEAKNESSES:
» no apparent training in self-defense or weaponry
» will need to adjust to having an organic body and all that comes with it
» restricted by his programming → although David is human now, he is still obligated to conform to basic directives that were programmed into him as an android

Items on their Person: Weyland uniform space suit (no helmet), Weyland uniform underclothes, a duffle bag. Both the bag and space suit are splattered with whitish green liquid latex.
