Application
Applications are currently open.
We keep this pretty simple. We basically just want to know that you know your character. Characters from all canons are accepted as well as OCs, including fandom OCs. Up to three versions of a character are allowed at one time: a Native AU version, an OU version, and a version from some other AU. Please only apply for one character at a time.
Please note that mentioning pre-established relationships in apps is considered godmodding, e.g. mentioning that your character is best friends or a close associate with another character.
Please contact the mods before apping any of the special characters listed in the setting. This includes character such as members of the Ai family, Sheila, and Kaikaina Grif.
Copy and paste from the text box into a comment below, or link to it on your character journal. Thanks!
Instructions:
OOC INFO
Name: What you like to be referred to as.
Contact: Plurk, skype, email—whatever is preferable for you.
Other characters played here:
Age: Over or under 18 is all we need here.
IC INFO
Name:
Native, OU, or AU:
Canon (if applicable):
Character journal used:
Reference (if applicable): You can just stick a wiki link in here.
Canon point (if applicable): What is the point in time that your OU or canon AU character went through the dimensional portal?
Personality: Something brief is fine; this can be bullet points if you want. Please make sure to list both strengths and weaknesses. Basically we want to see that your character is balanced and not overpowered.
Back story: Just a few paragraphs needed here, first about the origins of your canon, and then your character's place in it.
Sample: Just one; you can link something from a past log if you want. If you haven't done any threads with this character yet you should write something fresh, though.

Revision Needed
Thank you for your interest in the game. Your application has been reviewed and the mods would like to request revisions in the following areas:
- First note, your character as a native of this universe is a (Native) not an (OU) which would stand for characters from canon directly. For example, Grif exactly as he occurs within RvB.
- The personality needs some expansion. It is quite brief and doesn't allow the reader a glimpse into the character's manner of thinking. We would like to see more analysis of the character's thought process. For instance, what suits her to medicine? Is it a passion, a vocation, or does she do it because it satisfies something in her?
- The backstory requires more information. It tells nothing between her getting into a medical school to disappearing with no explanations. What lead to her 'disappearance.' Was that something forced upon her or something she choose? Has she attempted to contact her family? Why Adaptive? When she arrived on Adaptive, why did she go to Jimmy (it seems you may be running on an assumption of the Transponser, but that only affects non-native characters and yours is currently written as a native)? And why does she resort to mercenary work?
Feel free to ask for any clarification you may need on these topics and thank you again for your interest.
