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.

Miyako Inoue | Digimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizuna | OU
Contact: discord: hibari#0001 plurk: hopewillbloom
Invited by: Mio
Other Characters: n/a
Character Name: Miyako Inoue
Canon: Digimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizuna
Canon Point: End Movie
History: History
Personality:
The first step to understanding the whirlwind of a personality that is Miyako Inoue is breaking down the things that matter to her: First, her friends and family. Miyako's the youngest of four siblings and while she wanted time alone she never wanted to be fully alone. She has a natural inclination to people and helping people that few can rival (her helpfulness isn't always altruistic, however, and its usually just as much for her own happiness as it is others). As a teenager she picked up many hobbies just to be able to assist the people she cared about. As an adult she's quoted in her character song saying to call her if your troubled and she'll "open whatever gate she needs". Miyako acts for the people she cares about first and it's not uncommon for her to be unable to rest due to worrying about a situation.
Secondly, self-improvement and maturity are things she works hardest for (and sometimes they can come into combat with her desire to help). Ever since she was introduced into the series, Miyako has shown some self-deprecating tendencies that aren't entirely unwarranted. The unfortunate reality that the idealized personality for girls in Japan were those that were gentle and soft were not things she was unware of growing up — Daisuke outright compares and says that Hikari was more softer than her! Miyako spends most of her youth being hyper-aware that her honesty, upfrontness, and impulsivity were considered extremely unladylike and goes as far as to think that no one should want her around.
She always admired her upperclassmen — Koushirou, Mimi, and Sora. She goes as far as to really compare herself against Mimi and talk about the qualities they share that Miyako was just bad at. During the course of the initial series, her struggles revolve around accepting herself and her bad qualities as well as learning to use them properly. As she quickly inherited the girl's crests of Love and Purity, Miyako began to wrestle with what they meant for her and how they could possibly belong to her.
Her love is shown in the way she approaches people. While she can be quick to judge, she's also just as quick to love. Miyako doesn't hesitate to tell someone when she likes something about them, especially if it comes to features. It's not meant to be seen or viewed as flattery either, an openly honest person, Miyako simply just says what she thinks when she thinks it (which also has its pitfalls, unfortunately). She doesn't balk at bringing in strangers and has shown a willingness to bring in even old enemies — Her initial hesitance at bringing in Ken after he stopped being the Kaiser for her belief he was willingly killing Digimon. When she learned it was no longer the case, she was quick to try (in a gentle fashion) to bring them into her group. She cares about everyone she considers friends and cares very deeply.
Purity as its embraced by Miyako isn't so much about lacking malice as it is to being true to oneself. As formerly mentioned, Miyako struggled with seeing herself as a person that others would want to befriend. Because she panicked easily, had somewhat shallow thoughts, was quick to say what was on her mind, and could be impulsive she saw herself as lesser than others. Because she'd have these views of herself she'd overthink, panic, and often make things worse. She had to learn how to be able to show her emotions freely, but also do it in a way that didn't negatively hurt herself and others. She also had to learn that trying to force herself to be someone she was not would only make things worse.
Because while Miyako may see herself as a terrible personality the truth is she's actually a very good and kind-hearted young woman who didn't have the best outlets to express herself. It wouldn't be wrong to have her compete with the roll of heart/glue that held her group together. An energetic young woman who's quick to praise her friends, Miyako is best known for setting the mood of her group. She's stated in some interviews to be the "commander that pushes them forward," and also has a charging cry for when they need to get going. And if she's absent the mood of the group tonally shifts. Miyako is just the kind of person to be so herself and warm to other people she can make a group feel relaxed — It's not a trait she quite realizes about herself.
Part of why she doesn't see it about herself is partly in-line with the fact that as Miyako says: She can't stop. If there's something she wants to do she has to go for it. Sometimes it's seeing things in the distance that she wants to know what it is. Other times, it may be learning a new skill or going someplace new. She wants to chase her dreams and reach them for herself (which is what Hawkmon equates to her purity, in innocence and dreams). Miyako has to keep moving because if she doesn't she won't stop thinking. Despite her occasional speak-first-think-later and impulsive behaviors, Miyako is an introspective thinker. When something troubles her she slows down, questions why things are, asks for opinions and tries to understand. Part of her journey was learning not to jump to conclusions but one thing she never got better at was over-thinking it. Give her the time and if she doesn't come up with an answer that satisfies her she will panic.
The kind of soul to be excited about seeing something new and living a life of adventure it's important to know that for as much as Miyako has grown she hasn't fundamentally changed. As a younger adult, she's fully embracing her new found adulthood: Enjoying new, beautiful places, trying new wines, and helping other Chosen in their network. She's still just as bright and energetic as she was as a child, but she's learned better to how to stop from something hurtful in her honesty. Exploring her idea of adult maturity, she's still concerned with her ability to be honest to herself and embracing her ideals of love and purity. Her focus has shifted from being the ideal she imagined and just "having fun doing what my heart wishes" (even if she is a self-proclaimed fad-follower).

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!
Miyako will find herself either in a labyrinth (her neighborhood, but it's completely abandoned and the layout is all out of order. The sky and lighting are also an ominous red) OR she can awaken somewhere in the realm in March's event log. Either way, once s/he manages to exit the spirit realm, she'll find a smart phone along with a book of instructions how to use it.
There is a group text inbox that your character will be invited to on Friday. This is just an optional thing, so don't worry too much about it right now.
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.
