APPLICATIONS ARE OPEN.
We run on CST.

APPLICATIONS!

All Applications will be open on the 3TH AT 12:01 A.M. CENTRAL and close on the 9TH AT 11:59 P.M. CENTRAL. Applications will be looked over during the duration of the week and will, hopefully, at the latest all be done by the fourteenth. As we are human, and humans make mistakes, such as accidentally overlooking applications, if we haven't made any comment on your application by the twenty-first, feel free to contact us and we will rectify the situation as soon as possible.

PLEASE REMEMBER: Look over your application for grammar and spelling. The mod team reserves rights to request revisions or deny any submissions if an application is incoherent. Here's a handy word count tool to help if you get stuck on the word count.

Please head all applications with your character name and series

CANON APPLICATION BELOW

OOC Information
NAME; What you want to be called, whether your real name or a handle
AGE; Simply your age. Put "N/A" if applying for a Digimon.
OTHER CHARACTERS PLAYED; Please write "N/A" or leave blank if this is your first character in the game, otherwise list all the characters you play here currently as well as others you are applying for this round

IC Information
CHARACTER NAME; Please list in the Western order (Toushirou Hitsugaya, Harry Potter)
AGE; How old are they?
CANON; What is their canon?
CANON POINT; What point in canon do they come from?
FAMILY TYPES; Check the PARTNERS list for this part. Choose at least three families. You must have at least three but you can have as many as you like. If you want to use all just say all. If you are applying as an independent Digimon, you can omit this section. Please do this section based on what best fits your character as opposed to which you like most! Unless you are choosing all, you are required to explain why you're choosing which families you are in just a sentence or two, so we can get a better understanding of your character and how you believe they will impact the game.

APPEARANCE; Give us a brief run-down of their appearance! For those who already look human a brief paragraph will be fine. For those normally less human in appearance, explain how they're different! Remember, if they didn't look human before they have to look mostly human now (so larger or smaller height, animal ears/tails, wings, etc are fine). If you're applying for a Digimon, just give us a brief description.
PERSONALITY; This is the most important part of your application. This is what will define your character and what we will judge most heavily. Make sure to list all of their core traits and how you interpret them. You should also use canon events to exemplify whatever you have listed. You must have at least 300 words in this section. We will pend you if we do not see that you have a clear handle on your character's personality and cannot back up your interpretations with canon information.
HISTORY; You are free to write out your history and in that case it must be 400 words at the least. However, you are also free to leave us a wikia page for your character. Please be reasonable with this. If the wikia page only lists two paragraphs on a recurring character, we will likely ask for you to write a two to three paragraph history on them depending on the content. Most wikia pages will likely be fine.

SAMPLES
FIRST PERSON; Here you can either link a thread or post from anywhere or write aten sentence sample. If you choose the ten sentence route it can be about anything, so long as it takes place within the game setting. A question and answer is available at the bottom of the application page. In this sample you'll want to focus on dialogue.
THIRD PERSON; If you did not link to a thread in the first person, then you can do so here. If you already linked a thread we want at least a 250 word sample written in prose form for this section. In this sample you should focus on your character's internal thoughts as well as actions.

OC/AU APPLICATION BELOW

FAMILY TYPES; Check the PARTNERS list for this part. Choose at least three families. You must have at least three but you can have as many as you like. If you want to use all just say all. If you are applying as an independent Digimon, you can omit this section. Please do this section based on what best fits your character as opposed to which you like most!

WORLD; This should be at least 300 words describing the world they come from. If it's a more complex world we expect to see more. If you think we'll question it-- explain it!

APPEARANCE: Please give us a brief description of what they look like. Also tell us who their play-by is if you choose to use one. For those who already look human a brief paragraph will be fine. For those normally less human in appearance, explain how they're different! Remember, if they didn't look human before they have to look mostly human now (so larger height, animal ears/tails, wings, etc are fine).
PERSONALITY; This is the most important part of your application. This is what will define your character and what we will judge most heavily. Make sure to list all of their core traits and how you interpret them. You must have at least 300 words in this section. We will pend you if your character is not balanced with negative and positive traits, does not seem realistic, and does not give clear examples of their behaviors.
HISTORY; For an OC history we want at least 500 words and ask you be as detailed as possible. We're not asking you to list every single event that's ever happened, but the important ones. A man who has lived 250 years should not be able to covered in 4 paragraphs unless he lived in a cave his entire life. Likewise an eight year old may only cover four paragraphs.

SAMPLES
FIRST PERSON; Here you can either link a thread or post from anywhere or write aten sentence sample. If you choose the ten sentence route it can be about anything, so long as it takes place within the game setting. A question and answer is available at the bottom of the application page.

If you would like a Question and Answer sample you can use three of the following six questions. Please give at least 3-4 sentences for each question.

1.) If you could make any reality at all, what would you make?
2.) What would you say is your greatest strength?
3.) If you were given the option to stay in the Digital World or return to your home, which would you choose? Why?
4.) What ability would you most like to have?
5.) You have one choice. That choice will result in either the end of the world or it will save it. Which way would you go?
6.) What would make up your ideal friend?
