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!) | ||
Mihael "Mello" Kheel | Death Note | Reserved
First Person Sample:
[Mello thought about using text since he is far too paranoid to allow others to see his face or recognize his voice. Yet, due to the situation he is currently in, he has no other choice but to use Voice, in hopes he’d find an ally (or an enemy). He puts the device down as he speaks]
I’m not going to bother to repeat what everyone else is saying. It gets boring, after a while. [he is angry too, though. It’s obvious by the tone of voice.] And there are other things to worry about right now, than to listen to all of you bitching because someone brought you here and called you fictional. So do all of us a favor and think beyond the box.
We are outnumbered. [there is a sound; if anyone is used to guns will understand that Mello is loading his weapon] And if we want to stay alive and not turn into one of them like it happens in zombie clichés, we are better off working together. [he has a gun, but he knows he is doesn’t have the advantage and bullets aren’t infinite. He can’t live through this alone, as much as he’d like to believe so]
So let’s do a roll call. Who is civilian and who is military or has any sort of advantage when it comes to fight these things? Any special skills or medical experience? Who has means to defend themselves and who doesn’t? [he doesn’t plan on saving anyone, but he knows this will eventually lead to that] Who is in deep shit right now and needs to get their asses saved asap?
Third Person Sample
It’s an inexplicable sensation to wake up after feeling your heart stopping and you understood you were going to die. Death Note makes no mistakes, and when Mello felt that sharp pain on his chest he understood that he was going to die and nothing would stop it from happening. Or shouldn’t be, as far as any of those who used it knew. So, when he opened his blue eyes and noticed that he was still there, breathing, thinking and with a pulse, Mello couldn’t even begin to explain what went through his head. It was just too much, too many questions and too fast. And sure the blond couldn’t even begin building a proper path of questions, because what came after this made it even more agonizing.
Japanese cartoon character, a Japanese comic book character. There was a novel, even, and there were soundtracks, toys, statues, DVD’s, movies, there were even plushes and magazines, household items, and even pillows. There were websites and all sort of creepy (really creepy) details, fan comics and fan fiction. All of this about his life. Not just his life but everyone that was connected to Kira case.
Mello’s first thought was that someone had been spying on him. Actually, that was a very plausible thing to think; if they could resurrect him, perhaps they also had the technology that would allow them to spy on people and learn everything they wanted about a person. It was far-fetched, but nothing in this situation was normal and even a strange explanation could be a good one.
But what was the reason to do this? Why to go to this extend? Maybe they wanted to mess with his mind? He was already freaked out the moment he woke up alive. And not knowing what happened to Kira after his death would have been the most messed up thing anyone could ever do to him. It was something else. Mello still denied that he was fictional – hell, he was there, he lived a life and he remembered all of it, and parts of that life were missing in the books and the cartoon; not to mention they are drawings, it’s not even him – but there had to be a reason why.
The man didn’t indulge his brain any longer; enough with questioning and analyzing, Mello had to get his ass out of there now. Grabbing the things they left him – how thoughtful of them, he thought with sarcasm – including the water and the crackers (why would they leave resurrect him if they were going to poison him again, he figured), he walked to the door as he readied his gun.
Survival of the fittest. And he’d show whoever put him in this shitty place that he could and was going to survive.
