APPLICATIONS。
APPS WILL BE SCREENED.
NOTE: APPS WILL CLOSE BY MARCH 24TH.
APPLICATION GUIDELINES.
For Fandom Characters;
- STAY IC. A given, of course. The game is an AU, meaning their past will naturally be different from their original past. However, that doesn't mean you turn your character into someone else entirely. They must be recognizable as the character you want to portray, with different events having led to their personality as it is now.
This isn't to say they can't be affected differently thanks to their new canon, but they must sound and act like the characters they're meant to be.
- Canon; As some characters have some pretty interesting backstories from their original series, see if you can integrate their canon in a convincing manner into Otrolado's. Creativity is the spice of life after all. (:
- Be Creative!; If you find yourself stuck, try and imagine how the characters would react in a world like this. What of their canon could work, how would they have been living so far here? What are their motivations? Keep all that in mind when you're apping, and please make it realistic to the canon of this game.
- Powers; Regarding abilities, please remember to be reasonable. Don't go around making your characters overpowered, even if they are in their own canon. Also, this must be stressed: if your character is normal in canon, they stay normal. They don't gain any abilities. They don't get altered in any shape/way/form. Their race/species stays the same. In other words, they stay normal.
- Series; Don't forget to put down your character's series!
For OCs;
- CREATE YOUR CHARACTERS WITH OTROLADO CANON IN MIND;
It goes without saying. You can't have characters suddenly dropping in from outer space or from 2001, be sure to read the rules and the setting before making your characters.
Does this mean I can't use characters I've created before?;
Not unless you change their canon to somehow fit Otrolado's storyline. Again, if you want to apply for important positions within the game and the higher up organizations, contact the mods to level out how much authority they can have. All plot-aiding help is welcome. :)
What powers can my characters have?;
Project Yurei and The Sphere conducted many, MANY experiments, many of which your characters could have suffered side effects from, been survivors of and so on. Yurei deals with more supernatural instances, while The Sphere is connected towards biogenetic and scientific enhancements. Mechas, cyborgs, all come from there. While Yurei will play upon the spiritual and creepy. Go wild, but also be realistic in accordance to the plot. We don't want kemonomimi fairy mecha angels flitting about the place.
Remember, don't worry about powers. Normal people who are powerless are encouraged too!!
SUBJECT LINE: When submitting your application, please make it this format: "[ character name - series/original ][ part _ ]". If you reserved before applying, please also write [ RESERVED ] at the end. Thank you!
