Entanglement has switched over to a dressing room format for now, so applications aren't needed for the time being.

FANDOM CHARACTER APPLICATION:

Mun: Your Name: Your Journal: (optional) Your Email: Your AIM: (optional) Character: Character's Name: Character's Fandom: Character's Home Universe:(Please either describe a bit of your character's universe or link to a wiki that does so) Canon Point you're taking him/her/it from: (If your character's spent a signifigant amount of time in the game universe, please include it here, including whether they've been on Senburu-Trati'salan a while) Method of Arrival on Station: (see the FAQ for a list of options) Physical Appearance: (You may link to a picture if you like. If they'll be gaining new clothes upon arrival, describe them here) Personality: (at least two paragraphs) Abilities and Skills: (Both human and superhuman. Optional section.) Sample: (At least three good sized paragraphs. Please set this within the game's multiverse. You may use NPCs or characters already in the game as foils for your character in this sample if you wish. Format is prose, either third or first person. You may also use a musebox post or one in <lj site="livejournal.com" user="testrunbox"> as your sample. This post may be slightly shorter than a sample written here, as long as your total length of writing (initial post+your tags) fits the length guidelines.)

ORIGINAL CHARACTER APPLICATION:

Mun: Your Name: Your Journal: (optional) Your Email: Your AIM: (optional) Character: Character's Name: Character's Fandom: (if an original universe based OC, put 'OC' here) Character's Home Universe:(Please describe it. What's it like? Magic? Technology? What is their home culture like?) Method of Arrival on Station: (see the FAQ for a list of options) Physical Appearance: (You may link to a picture if you like. If they'll be gaining new clothes upon arrival, describe them here) Character History: (Their life up to arrival on Senburu-Trati'salan. You don't need to tell us every detail but enough that we get an idea of what shaped them into who they are today.) Personality: (at least two paragraphs) Abilities and Skills: (Both human and superhuman. Optional section.) Sample: (At least three good sized paragraphs. Please set this within the game's multiverse. You may use NPCs or characters already in the game as foils for your character in this sample if you wish. Format is prose, either third or first person. You may also use a musebox post or one in <lj site="livejournal.com" user="testrunbox"> as your sample. This post may be slightly shorter than a sample written here, as long as your total length of writing (initial post+your tags) fits the length guidelines.)

Whichever application you're posting, please put the character's name, if they're an OC, and their fandom (if any) in the subject line.

Note again that you are allowed to use musebox posts and posts on testrun_box for your sample. In that case, your total amount of tags written will be added up, so the initial post can be shorter than normal for a sample. You're still required to use a prose format and set the sample in the game universe though.

Abilities and Skills: Nishiki is an android, and as such does not need to eat or sleep. Though it seems she does need to be recharged once in awhile under dire circumstances. She is also stronger and more durable then a normal human being. Though she does have a history of being destroyed on various occasions.

Her body is also modular in nature, which allows the connection of a variety of specialty parts to be attached to her. Among those seen in the manga include wings, underwater gear, and snow rescue parts.

Finally, Nishiki's core can be swapped between her normal and adult states. This allows the more durable Roppenmatsu 1 [or Ishiki] to be used when the smaller Nishiki would not do the job.

Sample:
Though Nishiki had been a gift to the station from the Shioji Scientific Society, many aboard the station now wished they would take her back. The manic android had been running amok through the station for nearly a day now and in general making a pain of herself. A few hours into the rampage, it seemed as if no one was safe, as every female member of the crew had been deemed "big sister" while every male had been given an embarrassing nickname. More then anything, the general consensus on the matter lay heavily on why anyone in their right mind thought building a high-powered android with the mind of a twelve year old was a good idea.

Thought however, even one of consensus, was far from enough to stop the rampaging loli-droid from reeking further havoc and annoyance upon the people of the the junk station. Seemingly unstoppable, Nishiki eventually found herself entrenched in the engineering department, if for no other reason then it reminded her of the Professor's lab back home. The staff of engineers and other specialists soon found themselves bombarded by an endless series of inane questions including "Oh! What's that?!", "How does that work?" and "Oh Shiny!?".

Having no patience for such silly things, Nishiki soon found herself expelled from the room of shiny things and soon found herself in her sleep quarters. Having little else to disrupt for the time being, she lays down upon her bed and begins to upload the video of the days activities to her creator's network...

While overall we enjoyed your application, we would like to ask you for the following revisions to your app:

-The world of Excel Saga is quite different from our earth, with, for instance, ordinary bureaucrats moonlighting as sentai teams and an evil organization attempting to take over Fukuoka. Please go into more detail in that section.

There is no need to revise any other section of the app.

Within the city of Fukuoka, Japan a pair of groups, the city environmental security task force and ACROSS vie for control of the city on an almost daily basis.

While the is headed by Kabapu, a local government official and claimed member of the ancient civilization of Solaria, it is staffed by a group of four perfectly normal people who were dragged into the above conflict. Providing tech support for this group is the Shioji Scientific Society, which is responcible for Nishiki and the other strange gadgets the group has.

On the other side of the track stands ACROSS, a group who stated goal is conquest of the city, as conquering the whole world at once would be to hard. Led by the charismatic Il Pallazo, who Kabapu claims is also a former citizen of Solaria, and his underlings, three college age girls and their dog.

The conflict between these two groups is comical for most of the series, as both ineptly try to counter each others equally goofy plots. However, around the time Nishiki is being taken from, Excel, the most senior of the ACROSS girls, had decided to take the groups message of conquest public, which mostly involved rallies at sports events and on the street, which sparked Kabapu to pull out all the stops and give his team Sentai-styled super suits to fight back.

It's worth noting that despite the conflict between ACROSS and the City Security Environmental Force, the public never seems to know the truth of what is going on. This can be seen in the fact that the people at Excel's rallies tend to see her as an overly energetic idol singer or cosplayer.

You know what to do!
