OLD PAGE. GO TO THE CURRENT APP PAGE HERE
Okay so application is a very strong word and not entirely accurate, but it's a term we all know so bear with me. This is the page where you officially submit your character information for the game! Apps will not really be judged on its contents but more making sure everything fits into the setting of the game. If you want more information on the setting, please check out the FAQ!
How do I join the game?
This app page is currently open! Apps can be submitted by players at anytime. Apps are reviewed by the mod on Sundays.
To join the game, the only big thing is you'll require an invite from another player. Players can invite up to 2 people per month. Just be sure to list their name and have the person confirm that they did invite you either by contacting the mods directly or commenting to your app. Apps that do not have a invitation confirmation will not be looked at by the mods. If a confirmation does not come within two Sundays of the app's submission, it'll be automatically rejected.
A new player must be in the game one full month from their app acceptance date before they can invite another player (meaning if their app was approved on September 18th, they can invite people starting October 18th). This is so the new player has a chance to get acclimated to the game and community enough to assist any friends they later invite to the game.
Players who were in the game but who dropped/were swept will not need an invite to rejoin the game for up to one month after their drop date. After that month, they will require an invite to rejoin.
Once you submit your app, you'll get a welcome comment confirming that everything is a-okay. The only times I'll ask for revisions is if there needs to be a fix with power purchases or possessions.
Is there a player cap?
There is a player cap! Kaisou allows a total of 75 players. Should we ever reach cap, apps will close until openings become available.
PLAYER SLOTS: 46/75 filled.
What kind of characters do you allow?
Most things! Canon characters, Original characters, CRAU, AU characters - the list goes on. Double characters are also allowed so long as the doubles are notably different from one another (examples: MCU Peter Parker and Into the Spider-verse Peter Parker would be fine as they are two clearly different interpretations of the character. Alternatively, a canon version of a character and an AU version of the same character would be fine as long as the AU causes a notable difference in the character). Customizable protagonists and characters from canons with different story routes are allowed, and any characters with differing story routes would be considered AUs from one another.
The only requirement for a character is that they do require a consistent canon history. This is because many of the plot events and mechanics deal with memories and connections to their previous life (or current life if an OU). If you wish to app a mascot character that doesn't have a specific canon background (a vocalid, clippy, the trix rabbit, etc) - you are welcome to write an OC that's inspired by the character with a clear established background to work from. Characters who have multiple canon iterations (like Link from Legend of Zelda or Sonic the Hedgehog) will need to pick a single iteration to pull their canon background from. Characters must also have been properly introduced (not just a quick cameo) in their canon for at least one month at the time of apping.
How many characters can I play at a time?
You can play up to four active characters at a time! Only two of these characters are allowed to be Original Universe and there is a player cap of 25 OU players.
OU PLAYER SLOTS: 24/35 filled.
At the start of each month, we will make sure there are at least 2 OU player slots open whether it be through drops, or adding extra slots. But to keep from one cast from dominating the limited OU slots, there is a OU cast cap of 6 characters per cast. There's no cap on AUs from the canon at this time, just OUs!
Casts near Cap:
Final Fantasy XIV - 6/6, OUS CAPPED
How frequently can I submit an app?
There is no time restraint on the first two characters you app. If you join the game with the intent of playing two characters, you can app them both immediately or wait it out! However after you app your second character, you will require to wait one month between each new character app (so if you app your second character on March 2nd, you will need to wait until April 2nd to app a new character).
What type of characters can I play in this setting?
You have three options for characters!
- Normal Modern AU: These characters have lived normal lives in a modern Earth setting, completely oblivious to anything strange up until their entry into the game. Anything in their backstory should be events that could reasonably happen in the real world. Upon acceptance, Normal AUs will be allowed to pick one free regain (canon regain or an elemental power) worth up to 3 points that will come into effect after they join the game.
- Paranormal Modern AU: These are characters who have grown up in a modern Earth setting, but throughout their lives have experienced supernatural occurrences. These characters will get 3 extra points when they app to use for powers that the acquired at some point in their lives (if they so choose). Characters are also allowed to be apped as possessed status. Please refer to the FAQ for more information on that!
- Original Universe Characters: Characters who hail from their original world and find themselves waking up in this world. These characters will not lose any memories, and are allowed to have any items that would reasonably be on their person when they arrive. They are allowed to retain one ability that's been weakened to beginner levels, otherwise they've been completely depowered.

Asriel Dreemurr | Undertale | OG (re-app)
Contact: PLURK: spellweaver
Invited by: Ellie
Other Characters: n/a.
Character Name: Asriel Dreemurr
Canon: Undertale
Canon Point: At the end of the Pacifist Route, before changing back into Flowey.
History: https://undertale.fandom.com/wiki/Asriel_Dreemurr
https://undertale.fandom.com/wiki/Flowey
Personality: ❀ CARING: Asriel was not only raised by two extremely loving parents, but seems to have the same empathetic and caring nature that Asgore and Toriel have. This shows especially when he comes to the first fallen human's rescue. Despite the fact that humans had once sealed monsters underground, Asriel doesn't seem to hesitate to help the child when they fall into the ruins. Monsters in Undertale are also quite literally made of empathy and love. It resonates through their SOUL. This caring nature also leads to him being rather sensitive. He's called a crybaby in a few points during Undertale's canon.
❀ IMPRESSIONABLE: Asriel seems deeply influenced by those around him – perhaps even moreso than other children are. He takes after Asgore via his way of speaking with a Southern dialect. This also shows especially after death when he seems to copy some of his best friend's mannerisms – whether it be through their “creepy smiles” or the mischief that the both of them seemed to get into together. The fact that they're easily influenced by others is also what leads them to get caught up in things where they can be in over their head. This is seen mostly when it comes to the plan to free monsters in the underground, even if it meant that Chara would sacrifice themselves for it.
❀ LOVING: This loving nature is both a positive and negative aspect of Asriel's character. It's his loving nature that can lead him to helping others – doing what he can to make others happy and in his words “give them a happy ending,” however – Asriel loves others to what may be an unhealthy degree. The desperation and need to see Chara again is what leads Asriel to want to force Frisk to kill others and ultimately change them into a person who would be more like their sibling It gets to the point where they use and perhaps even see Frisk as a replacement for Chara. When Asriel loves, he loves hard. He states how he loves and cares for Chara more than anyone else. When he changed into Flowey, he worked to give others a happy ending in what might be seen as a desperate attempt to feel the love that he lost.
❀ CYNICAL: Despite having been saved by Frisk, Asriel still deeply carries a cynical view of the world. Despite no longer believing in the philosophy kill-or-be-killed, Asriel is well aware that there are many dangerous people in the world. He knows that his best friend's plan was not something he should have completely had faith in, and that they weren't the “best person.” Perhaps this is due to the fact that Asriel ended up influenced by Frisk, just as he had Chara. However, as Flowey – it seemed as though Asriel truly believed that things such as love and faith in others were worthless things. While Asriel has remembered what it is like to love and care for others, this doesn't change their previous way of believing.
❀ COWARDLY: Despite being willing to kill others time and time again, Asriel is also the kind of person to run away the moment that his own life is in danger. He seems to want to desperately cling to things that he's familiar with or what he wants to keep control of. The want and need to have “God-like” powers was more of a way for Flowey to remain in control of the power of DETERMINATION. In the no-mercy run, he also changes his mind and decides the path that Frisk takes is ultimately a bad idea only when his own life is in danger. He ultimately tries to save Asgore to prevent Frsik from attempting to kill him.
❀ RELATIONSHIPS: Asriel has several important relationships. The most important being Chara. Chara is a human who had fallen into the Underground that Asriel had found and helped. They quickly became best friends, and it is said by other characters that they were like siblings. He shares a friendly relationship with them and says in canon that he believes that he understands and cares from Chara more than anyone else. After Chara dies, much of Flowey's mannerisms may have come from them, but his kill-or-be-killed philosophy may have come from the trauma he faced after being attacked and killed by humans. As for Toriel and Asgore – his parents – he may have been close to them at one point, and while he still cares for them, Asriel knows that it's incredibly unlikely that he'll never see them again after the barrier is shattered. It's clear that Asriel was deeply cared for and loved by them and that the feeling was very much mutual. As said before, he was influenced by his family to the point where he would mimic certain quirks.
Time of Arrival to Kaisou: I'm reapping him from when he was here last month!
Items: The only thing he really will bring is the clothes on his back, and a heart-shaped locket with the words “best friends forever” inscribed inside of it.
Retained Ability: n/a
I'M SO SORRY. Life was honestly absolutely crazy last month and a lot happened... ;;
Welcome!
Please take the following steps before you get started:
Additionally, if you want to make a personal inbox for your character, feel free to do so!
Asriel will find himself either in a labyrinth (the human village on the surface, except its abandoned and the layout doesn't look right. there's flowers growing all ove) OR she/he can awaken somewhere in one of the stable gates. Either way, once he manages to exit the spirit realm, he'll find a smart phone along with a book of instructions how to use it. September's event log can be found here or you can make your own intro post!
Note: it's up to you whether he remembers his previous time in Kaisou or not! All previous regains will need to be repurchase though.
You now have 4 points that can be spent on any Regains for the month. These regains will ICly take effect after the Libra app appears on the phone.
