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.

Anna | Frozen | Paranormal Modern AU

[personal profile] alovingheart 2022-10-16 08:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Player Name: Soap
Contact: [plurk.com profile] favors
Invited by: I go here now!
Other Characters: Yoosung Kim, Five

Character Name: Anna (last name Albrecht, in AU)
Canon: Frozen
Canon History: A helpful wiki link!
(Also a link to BreezeWiki which should help get rid of fandom wiki ads and banners and crap to make the site actually readable?)

Canon Personality:
- Caring, kind, and thoughtful
- Excitable, adventurous
- Friendly, outgoing
- Playful, light-hearted
- Slightly awkward
- Sometimes overly romantic and idealistic
- Protective of loved ones
- Impulsive at times (but listen she's from the school of Listen To Your Heart)

AU History: Spent her childhood traveling the world, as her parents make food and culture documentaries. (She can speak a little in several languages because of this but is only really fluent in English.) She was also homeschooled her whole life because of this. She's related to Snow White on her father's side (cleared this with Jax, Snow's player). She's a variety vlogger, content creator and influencer online, not famous but with a big enough following to pay the bills! She's kept in contact with Snow growing up (being six years older than her) and upon turning 20 has decided to move to Kaisou to try and win guardianship over her to save Snow from her abusive stepmother, as well as finally set down roots for herself away from her own parents (who she does adore but she desperately wants a stable place to call home).

AU Personality Differences: She's more cautious in what she says and even thinks due to her possession, though that's only in regards to not wanting to upset her unicorn. She still overshares on occasion. She's a little less prone to jumping into adventure and is a little more eager for stability due to how she grew up. She's had lots of adventures already though and is quite happy to share and talk about them!

Element: None yet
Purchased Powers: Shapeshift into a unicorn (3 points)
Possession: Unicorn! Anna got lost in a forest when she was fourteen and had to spend a night there. While dying of exposure to the elements, she was saved by a unicorn at the end of its own very long life who came upon her, liked her, and decided it would live on through her. This gives her the usual possession benefits (heals faster, slower aging, more energy) as well as the ability to shapeshift into said unicorn (though it can and sometimes does override her will while she's shifted, though she can shift back at any time), but her contract price is that any negative (or "impure," as unicorns are pure and just, though I don't wanna touch "impurity" in regards to sexuality because it's 2022 and even unicorns at this point should be over that puritanical bs, amirite?) thoughts toward others physically pain her. This occurs in the form of headaches. Lying gets her a full-on light-sensitivity migraine, requiring her to lay down for a while, and thinking of physically harming someone for any reason can sometimes give her a nosebleed (this sort of depends on whether the unicorn thinks it's a Just action/thought or not).

Hopefully that works for possession but obviously I'm open to working it out with you if anything needs changing!
