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.

Invited by: I’m already here!
Other Characters: Idia Shroud
Character Name: Rutile Flores
Canon: Mahoutsukai no Yakusoku
Canon History: •Rutile is the first son of the Great Witch Tiletta - who, as you can tell from her title, was pretty great. She was an incredibly powerful - and infamous - witch who settled down with a human after a chance meeting, and the loving couple would have another son five years after Rutile’s birth.
•They would have been an incredibly loving family, too, if not for the fact that Tiletta was well aware she would die giving birth to her second son, Mitile, and if anyone tried to save her Mitile would die instead. She decided that Mitile’s survival was more important than hers, making her long-time friend and fellow wizard Mithra promise to protect and care for her children, and telling everyone else to do whatever it took to make sure Mitile actually did survive.
•Which he did! Because Rutile ended up giving half of his magical ability to his brother, which will surely not ever become plot relevant or anything.
•Mr. Flores, who never got a name, died not terribly long after Tiletta, leaving the two boys to the care of their small village. They were largely raised under the guidance of two other local wizards - Lennox Ram, a shepherd, and Figaro “Garcia”, a “doctor”.
•This is unfortunate, because Figaro is not what most people would generally consider a good person. Sure, he’s got very powerful healing magic, and he’s incredibly knowledgeable and powerful over all, and he might have helped partially conquer the world and stage a violent revolution but it’s not like he’s been purposely hampering the brothers’ efforts to learn magic because of a prophecy saying Mitile would be responsible for the deaths of Rutile, Lennox, and Figaro or anything…
•Except that’s exactly what he’s been doing these past fifteen years.
•At the age of 18, Rutile followed in his father’s footsteps and became a teacher.
•At age 20, Rutile was chosen by the Sage - you see, in his world there is a yearly almost-apocalypse that
2020.521 wizards are responsible for stopping because their moon is an malevolent, powerful entity known as the Great Calamity. Part of fighting the Calamity requires having a Sage - some poor bastard isekai’d into their world - that will help the wizards achieve their goals.•Being summoned is very bittersweet - on the one hand, it’s because the representatives for the Southern Country have all died. The only reason a new wizard will be summoned is to replace someone who died, and as Rutile was chosen alongside all the other wizards he knew…
•But it also meant he gets to see Mithra again! And he’s excited for that! He barely remembers the wizard and it’s been fifteen years since he’s seen him, but it’ll be great. It’s not like Mithra will have forgotten about Rutile and the promise he made to Tiletta or anything…
•It’s also not like the reason the Calamity was so much worse this past year was because of magical interference caused by someone who’s taken on Mithra’s appearance or anything and it’s not like the Central Country military is messing with a fusion of magic and technology that they shouldn’t be and the Knight’s captain gets turned into a horrible bird monster, either.
•Life as a Sage’s wizard is, clearly, chaotic from the start. There’s so much to learn about the man behind the strengthened Calamity, not to mention all of the fallout from the Calamity itself. Monsters coming back to life, bitter and vengeful ghosts, failed resurrections, inter-wizard drama that almost results (and does result) in murder…
•But, hey, Mithra does end up remembering the brothers and his promise! So that’s something good! Even if it does mean that he’s a bit overprotective and unhinged. It’s fine.
Canon Personality: •Friendly! Rutile is incredibly friendly and welcoming to everyone he meets - until he has a reason not to be. He’s not the kind of person to take insults or injustices lying down, even if the person he’s confronting has the power to wipe him off the face of the earth. Or arrest him.
•Nurturing. Rutile believes everyone should be treated kindly and softly, and he would rather help than hurt. He’s not just a teacher to follow in his father’s footsteps - he wants to guide people into becoming the best people they can be. He wants to make people happy and feel loved and supportive, and most people would say he’s a very gentle and caring soul. This is not untrue. However,
•Short-temper. Rutile has a temper that burns hot and fast. He tends to get incredibly annoyed and angry quickly, but it doesn’t tend to linger for very long and he rarely lashes out because of it. At most - and depending on who’s pissed him off - he’ll smack them in the arm with his sketchbook and storm off, but give him a few minutes to cool off and he’ll apologize for his reaction and try to have a conversation to prevent that from happening again. Considering the people he deals with, it’s kind of a fruitless endeavor. More often than not, though, when people are frustrating Rutile by being mean, he takes the approach of “if you’re nice to someone being an asshole, they’re too confused to keep being mean”.
•Energetic, which is good when your job deals with children. Rutile has near boundless energy and enthusiasm and fully believes you should embrace life to the fullest. He can find the beauty and positives in just about anything, and it gives him the fuel he needs to face the world he lives in that is equal parts wonderful and cruel. There are still those beautiful parts, though, and he would rather embrace those things than let himself get hung up on the misery of the world.
•Also he sometimes worries about living up to the memories and legacies of his mother, but it’s fine.
AU History: •Born and raised in Kaisou - while his senses have always been relatively weak, he was told about magic and the paranormal by his mother. She promised to teach him when he was older, but after her and his father died in a car accident and Rutile ended up in an orphanage and, eventually, foster care, magical studies were put on hold..
•He largely decided to focus on other things in life - school and work, for the most part. He would occasionally try to dabble in magic, but he hasn’t managed much just yet.
•He’s currently a senior attending Kaisou University, majoring in early childhood education while working (full-time, unfortunately,) at a flower shop in Brick Alley. His college experimentation has mostly been spent trying to figure out magic without much in the way of teachers, which… is probably not the worst thing he could be doing with his life.
AU Personality Differences: He holds onto grudges for way longer and is like 2% less extroverted, but asides from that? Not much else.
Element: Wind
Purchased Powers: •Low level healing
•Make objects pen-sized or smaller float.
•Don’t need hairspray anymore. Hell yeah.
