Your name: Pip Characters currently played: none Character(s) in question: Gilbert GP Guilford Concerns: I did not see this covered under the FAQ or Application pages, but--
Is a character with roughly 6~ months development between post-season events and time spent played actively in a game still count as V1? They were not AU previously, but some things are different in the personality and history section (which I will end up summarizing in the app itself).
That sounds fine. A character with development not laid down by canon typically falls under the V2+ category, but if you feel that the character you play is still close enough to his canon version, you can of course put him down as V1 for the app. If you add a note to the app saying that you're unsure whether he's V1 or V2+, we can help you make a decision once we've read your app sections, so whatever you think would fit the best for the meantime is completely fine.
On another note, chaotictapestry's Quatre and my Dorothy thread together a lot so would it be all right if the two of us will be submitting the same voice sample threads? We're also considering doing the third person bit together in her muse box.
Sorry to be asking a question again so soon but, on the matter of 3rd person, it's all right to submit a thread for that, right? Just clarifying again. Again, my apologies for being so bothersome. ^_^;
It's not a bother--asking questions is a good thing--and yes, feel free to use a prose thread as your writing sample. As long as something gives us a sense of your writing style we don't mind what form it's in.
Your name: Ilya Characters currently played: n/a Character(s) in question: Jibrille from Angel Sanctuary Concerns: She's akin to a 'dead' character in the series since she's pretty much comatosed during the entire series - though there had been indications that she IS aware of what's going on around her. And her soul had been transferred to another vessel during the series. Much of her personality can only be based on testimonies and descriptions of other characters in the series as well as on a handful of flashbacks [where she didn't speak at all]. History is just as little as well.
That's not a problem! We accept OCs, fandom OCs, AUs... It'd be silly to say characters with very little canon information can't be accepted when we take all of that. XD Try to keep it clear in your application what is canon and what is headcanon, and it should be fine.
I don't see any reason why it wouldn't be V1 (though I'm not very familiar with Angel Sanctuary, so take that assessment with a grain of salt). Unless the things you need to make up about her would affect other canon characters, or would change their world in some way, I think it's safe to go with V1.

1. I personally would prefer if you wrote the canon information out, and then did another section that was your headcanon - whatever you have of it, I mean. If you don't have much, you don't need to make up a ton of it, just whatever you think is most important to playing them. XD

Yes, absolutely! We've had several applicants use dear_mun threads already, and that's perfectly fine. :)

Though may I ask what version she would be?
