Copy and paste the below form and repost it to this very same post! You may either leave the actual application here or link it from your journal -- whatever you prefer to do is fine. No matter which you choose, please put your character's name and canon in the subject line!
We've specified below what we're looking for in certain sections, so hopefully that will make filling out this application a little easier! Applications will be accepted every Sunday for the beginning of the game! We will notify you guys here when that changes, and also make note of it in
oocdealings.
Please make sure you fill everything out, and make sure that the app is readable by formatting it and breaking things up!
Applications are OPEN
Gameplay is ON
OOC INFO:
Name:
Personal LJ:
Are you over 17?: You must be 17 or older to ride this ride!
Contact: What's the best way to contact you?
Characters already in game: Just put N/A if this is your first character! The current character limit is 5
IC INFO:
Character name:
Fandom:
Age: Characters must be 12 or older to play. If your character is under 15, please give us a short blurb about why this character can handle playing in Igura.
Appearance: Please do more than just link a pic! A short description would be awesome.
Canon point: Where are you taking your character from?
Cause of Death: Based on the point you're talking your character from, please tell us how you'd like for them to have died! Go ahead and go wild. However, characters may not be killed by others in their canon if it doesn't actually happen canonly. Someone might not want to take the blame for your character's death, and it wouldn't be fair to someone intending to app the character you claim killed yours! So please keep it to accidents/mother nature/heart attacks/what have you/etc. If you're taking your character from a point where they actually do die in canon, just explain to us how that went down, briefly.
Abilities: Tell us about your character's strengths and powers! Are they a kung fu master? A badass Samurai? A wizard? Can they manipulate until the cows come home? We'd love to hear it! This is the sort of game where those abilities should get some good exercise! However, please remember that your character's powers will be subdued and limited upon entrance into Igura -- over time they'll find themselves getting stronger and feeling more like their regular selves.
Background: You're free to link a wiki link or something of that nature, if there's a decent amount of info for us to read. For characters with minor parts/no wiki/obscure fandoms/OCs, please write up what info there is of their background! And yes, headcanon is fine, but please note what is headcanon!
Personality: Pretty self explanatory -- we wanna know that you know your character! So please describe their personality to us. Remember, quality over quantity.
Old Game Info: Only applicable to characters who are coming here from with old game history! Please describe their time in the previous game(s) and their important relationships, as well as any changes in personality/etc. If you're apping someone straight out of canon, you may just put N/A here.
Was entrance willingly or by force?: The only difference between the two is getting led to the entrance of Igura if participation was willing, and being tossed in on their butts if participation was unwilling.
Outside item: Your character is allowed to bring in one outside item into the game. Weapons not included. If it's something that doubles as a weapon (such as a cane with a gun in it) the weapon function will be disabled, and the normal function still available.
IC:
P.I
1st Person Sample: A standard network post! Write a post like your character might to the IIN, should be text only. While there's no character limit in the game, please make this sample at least 50 words long.
P.II
(Note: Everything in this part is completely IC. We decided to try something a little differently with an IC character survey rather than a 3rd person sample, so please fill this out like your character would! If you character would lie, lie! If your character would be totally honest, be totally honest! We want to get a feel on your character and how they act when faced with different questions and situations. But mostly, have fun with it and be creative!)
