the_measurers | Application

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: Sam is a normal man, with just a little habit for gadgetry. Due to his muscular nature, Sam is a rather strong man, and skilled with a football. In addition to this, he has some basic training in kick boxing and self defense, as he was expected to follow in his father's footsteps. He is of average intelligence, but does excel with numbers. He could have made a great CEO someday, or maybe a good mechanic, if it wasn't for, well, all of this.

Sample:
"You know, the last conversation I ever had with my mom was based around the stupidest thing possible. She said to me, 'what are you gonna do with your life?' and I replied 'I'll figure it out when I get there.'" Sam sighed, swirling the strange drink in his hand. It was alcohol, and that was what mattered. That was really pretty important to him right now. "I always figured working at the lab would just be a pit stop, work off some debt kind of thing, you know? I never anticipated it actually being the rest of my life."

"You're not dead, you know. You've just been...moved." The guy at the bar next to him said. As if this ship wasn't depressing enough already, even the bar was shoddy. That shouldn't come as a surprise, since everything was so...well, sad and haphazard, but Sam'd had hope. The only conclusion he could reach without going insane was that he was dead, and this was purgatory (he'd never been a bad guy in life, but he'd also never been real good, and wasn't that what purgatory was for?). The guy sitting next to him wasn't helping. Back in the real world, the guy next to you at a bar just minded his own business, and let a man drink and mumble to himself until he fell off the stool and then rushed him for money. That was how things were supposed to be done. Not like this.

"You keep saying that, but this," he swept his hand broadly at the bar, "this can't be real. I mean, we've got aliens on Earth, sure. Heck, Superman was an alien, and he was a big damn hero. But this? This is everything all those heroes were supposed to prevent. This shouldn't happen. Have happened. Be happening. Whatever." Sam finished his drink and flagged the bartender for another.

"Man, you're drunk. This is happening. This is life. Life always goes on, y'know? Whether you want it to or not," The nosy guy said, slapping Sam on his shoulder. "We just live with it."

"We should be living with better." Sam stood up without touching his new drink. "And I'm going to make sure we do. What am I going to do with my life, mom?" He grinned, the manic grin of the drunk. "I'm gonna fix this." Resolute, Sam turned from the bar to head out and create his destiny. Improve the lives of everyone on this junk heap. And promptly blacked out.

"Idiot." The man who had sat next to Sam at the bar said, looking at Sam's prostrate form. He promptly 'took care' of Sam's drink for him before turning back to the bar.

Please join

entanglement_rp,

entangle_chan and

entanglementooc and post an intro message to the OOC comm. The AIM chat is schroedingerschat.

Please keep in mind for any future applications that we normally require characters carrying history from previous games to have the specific game run by us mods before turning in an app. This is to prevent applications having to be rejected for simply carrying history from a game that is incompatible with this one. Also in the future please clearly label an OC as such.

In addition, we already have one Mike. Please give yourself a nickname so we don't have to call you Mike #2!

Welcome to the game!

Ah, sorry about that then. As far as history from the other game, I wouldn't worry about it too much. Tai and I are the guys who run it, and it hasn't actually begun yet. I'm brining Sam into this as he would be at the beginning of that one. As far as the OC part... I swear I meant to label it, but apparently I forgot. Not my best move.

And since you already have a Mike, you can call me either Mik or Johnson, I respond to both equally well.
