APPLICATIONS ARE OPEN FROM MIDNIGHT ON THE 1ST to 11:59 PM ON THE 5TH OF EVERY MONTH (EST)
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
Take the code contained in the textarea and post it to your journal. Fill out the application there.
PLEASE READ THE APPLICATION EXPLANATION BEFORE COMPLETING YOUR APP. It contains important requirements and information for how you should complete certain sections.
Post a link to your application with the comment header format of CHARACTER NAME | CANON | RESERVED/NOT RESERVED. Feel free to stylize it in any way you wish, but please include this information.
Applications are not screened. You are free to lock your application on your journal after being accepted or rejected.
App challenges are not allowed for reserved characters. If two people post apps for the same unreserved character, the first app will be judged. If it is rejected the second application will be judged. Because the character is not reserved, no one has a speicifc claim and thus the original app being rejected should not mean others cannot apply for this unclaimed character.
There is a cap of 120 characters total for now, just to see how the game handles at that size. This cap may be raised based on reception and player vote. For now casts are capped at six characters.
Apps will be judged after apps close, and responses will be sent out ASAP.
CASTS REACHING CAP: Homestuck (6/6), Love Live: Sunshine! (4/6), Persona 5 (4/6), Tales of Berseria (4/6) FRANCHISES REACHING CAP: N/A CURRENT GAME CAP: 88/120
SEMI-NEW: THERE IS A NEW CONTINUITY FRANCHISE CAP OF 10 CHARACTERS. THIS APPLIES TO FRANCHISES WITH MAJOR CONTINUITY INVOLVED, LIKE FATE/, MCU, STAR WARS, ETC. THE SIX CHARACTER CAP STILL APPLIES TO ALL CANONS, BUT THERE WILL ALSO BE A 10 CHARACTER CAP APPLIED TO THE FRANCHISE ITSELF TO PREVENT GAME CROWDING AND TO KEEP CAPS FAIR.
FOR MARCH CYCLE: APPS WILL BE OPEN FOR 7 DAYS, NOT 5. ANY APPS SUBMITTED IN MARCH CAN INCLUDE A WRITTEN SAMPLE DUE TO LOW MOD ACTIVITY.
Your character is being taken on a magical journey...

NOTE: With concerns to this note: "Since this is data tied to Ember's character, I think a fair compromise for low/high frequency worlds is that while Ember can access items already in her inventory in either, items can only be converted into data and added to her inventory in high-frequency worlds." This is definitely fair, though the question is raised that would Ember have the ability to convert actual, tangible items into data? If she can then that's of course fine, but if it isn't an ability embedded into her data then she would be unable to "hammerspace" items that aren't originally data since they aren't compatible with her system. Also sorry if this was somehow accidentally glossed over when reading the application!
Yeah nah that's fair. While I think it'd be more neat to stash stuff in her inventory and play with video game logic being applied to real world stuff, it makes sense that being real world stuff would keep that from happening in the first place. So consider that nixed.
