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.

Other Characters: Adol Christin and Ghaleon
Character Name: Meta Knight ("Meti Cervantes Vargas" in the AU)
Canon: Kirby series
Canon History: here's the wiki
Canon Personality:
- serious
- fiercely protective
- generally honorable
- loyal; once one has his friendship, he's ride or die
- blood knight; he likes fighting so, so much
- vigilant; responds quickly to, and is ever watchful for signs of danger
- dislikes laziness, but has dialed it back from loathing it
- cannot stand to have his actual face perceived to the point that he will immediately flee if his mask gets knocked off or broken
AU History:
An orphan of unknown origin, the first event of particular note in Meti's life was being "acquired" by a corporation of few morals and access to a portal to the Spirit Realm of Nightmares to test what methods of giving people powers would be most reliable. You know, because stray children are less expensive test subjects than adults, and fewer people will ask questions if a random kid vanishes than an employee with family and an insurance payout. Of course, some people did start poking their noses in, and things snowballed until the next thing Meti knew, he was being carried from the wreckage of the company's headquarters by some kind stranger.
Said kind stranger left him and a few of his fellow former experiments in care of a foster parent with known ties to the supernatural. Kind of bad form to leave a kid who's gained the ability to sprout bat wings on regular people, after all. Life entered a state of relative normalcy afterward, though Meti never forgot how he got there, and for a time wished he could be a fairytale knight so he could protect others.
Come adulthood, the lad ended up starting a business working on aircraft after realizing the childhood dream of being a knight was not viable and most of the people with the money for hiring bodyguards are people he'd rather punch in the face himself. It's working out pretty well considering he's successfully not punched any clients in the face. He's remained close with the four he was rescued with, only trusting them and a handful of others to be his employees.
However, because he's still a fighty little bastard who likes challenging people so he can get stronger (and secretly enjoys the attention), Meti decided it would be a great idea to join the local cagefighting circuit, and has a bit of a fanbase beyond just his friends.
AU Personality Differences: He's not a lot different, honestly, beyond acknowledging that he has human limitations and therefore cannot feasibly attempt anything like fighting an entire army by himself. For this reason, he's also much more pragmatic when it comes to fights not in the ring, and has learned to rely more on his fists than a sword since carrying a sword around everywhere is not going to fly outside fake ones at conventions and during LARP.
Element: Shadow
Purchased Powers: 3 pts wings (canon ability regain)
REVISION REQUEST
While wings are an option in the Elemental powers, it's only under the Wind Element. So your options are either to keep the wings and change his element to Wind, or keep his Shadow element and purchase different powers with the three points.
Please let me know which option you prefer! Thank you!

Welcome!
Welcome to the game!
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!
The Libra app will now download onto Meti's phone unexpectedly. You are welcome to have [HIM/HER make a network post, or just start tagging around! April's event log can be found here.
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.
And finally just to note, since this is your third character, the next time you can app someone will be May 23rd!
