ᴀᴘᴘʟɪᴄᴀᴛɪᴏɴs
(applications are closed.) opening october 8th at 00:01 GMT-8. SO, you've read the F.A.Q., the rules, checked that the character you're interested in is free and not reserved, and now you're ready to apply? Great! We're ready to accept you! The application description is below, and the form is ready for your copypasta convenience just underneath it! Please submit all applications in comments to this post with the subject "chara name | series". Have a seat, and drink some tea. We'll get right to you! At this time, we do NOT allow application challenges. Sorry about that! It's all first-come, first-serve. You can apply for TWO (2) characters per round, with a maximum of SIX (6) characters allowed altogether. RESERVES are not necessary. We run on a first-come, first-served system, but if you reserve your place is guaranteed for apps. REQUESTS will always be as clear as possible on what we believe was lacking and expect to see written into the application, but feel free to ask for clarification and we'll reply as soon as possible. You have seventy-two (72) hours to revise, or your application will be revoked. Although you're more than welcome to ask for an extension if for some reason you're unable to complete in time, within reason. REJECTIONS will also have clearly-stated reasons, and you'll be more than welcome to re-apply next month. However, we ask that if you're rejected three times in a row, you please try your hand at another character. WHEN ACCEPTED, please read and follow the directions in the welcome copypasta closely! We don't ask for a terrible amount, but we do note that some things are mandatory for the game and it helps greatly with organization! DID YOU PLAY IN HOLYRELIC BEFORE? We have a special rule for that! If you're repicking a character you had in HR before we closed previously, we're upholding our promise that your character can come back with their memories, THREE (3) event items of your choosing, and half of their levels. (I.E: Gauche was level 42 thereabouts, he'll be 21 to start.) Just comment to the apps with an updated player/character section to reclaim! No need for samples. :) Applications can be screened for privacy after they've been judged, so please add a note if you'd like it screened. player. NAME: Your name or handle. JOURNAL: Your personal journal. I.E: dickingsE-MAIL: Your e-mail for mod contact records! PLURK&MESSENGER(S): CHARACTERS PLAYED: Characters you currently play in holyrelic!character. CHARACTER NAME: Your character's name. SERIES: The series your character is from; anime, manga, book, television, video game, you name it! Just give us a link. CANON POINT: The point in time that your character is being applied from. APPEARANCE: A link to an image, and/or an optional description if there's anything not covered in the image. DESIRED CLASS & REASONING: The class you'd like your character to be! We ask that you follow any canon inclination towards fighting types and state what they were previously, but if your character is someone that has never held a sword before, never took karate, and comes from a regular world with no magic, please provide a brief reasoning as to why you've picked what class you did! PREVIOUSLY IN HOLYRELIC: ONLY FOR PLAYERS FROM HR'S LAST INCARNATION! Please note what their halved level will be and the three event items you'd like to keep. :) (if this doesn't apply to you-- 98% of you-- just remove this line. ♥) PERSONALITY: Your character's personality; this needs to be written by you, though! We'd like at least two solid paragraphs, although three would be great! samples. FIRST-PERSON SAMPLE: A first-person sample-- or a journal/action post-- in the game's context. Anything you might use as a post in the game would be just fine here, but you don't need to use what you put in your application as your first post! Please do keep in mind that while journal posts are more natural to write for samples, we have no network in The World-- everything is face to face. All entries to the main community will be action posts! :) THIRD-PERSON SAMPLE: A third-person sample-- or log style-- that accurately displays your character's personality and motivations. Setting doesn't matter! We just ask that you please not write a sample about your character first arriving, because it greatly limits their usual personality and reactions. We aren't too particular about length but please write at least two or three paragraphs so we have something to work with! Also, if you've previously been accepted with another character and you're currently in the game, you do NOT need to write a third-person sample! |

3/3
FIRST-PERSON SAMPLE:
[It never seemed to fail; where ever he ended up, golden boy wasn't that far behind him. Still, while they were out of reach of Skyworld, he should at least act civil, right?]
Hey, Pit.
[...and of course that idiot had to respond by yelling out, "Pittoo". Seriously, he was going to strangle Palutena for putting that nickname in his original's empty head. Still, civil! He had to think civil. Think civil...]
[...hell with it.]
[Dark Pit got a running start, heading straight for Pit. His other half seemed to get the idea at the last moment, because he turned, flailing as he tried to get away. That didn't stop him from flinging his legs out in a flying kick that landed square on Pit's ass. The white angel went tumbling head over heels as his dark side landing neatly on the ground.]
Don't. Call me. Pittoo!
[He paused, glancing at the double daggers that were flopping around at Pit's sides as he eventually rolled to a stop.]
And you're still ripping off my look? Can't you come up with something original for a change?
THIRD-PERSON SAMPLE:
The NPCs had warned him that this area was far too dangerous for someone of his level. He hadn't thought much of it, of course; what the hell was a level supposed to be anyway? It wasn't like you could level up and get stronger in Angel Land or anything -- weapons did that when you fused them, not people themselves.
Right now, though, surrounded as he was by various creatures, he was starting to get the idea that maybe he should have listened.
Dark Pit reached up with the back of his hand, clinging tightly to one of his daggers, wiping the sweat from his forehead. One of him, half a dozen of them, and they had already beat him up fairly well. His other arm was still sporting a nasty gash from where one had gotten a little too close (though if this was a game too, he wasn't entirely sure how the heck that was even possible; he certainly never got this beat up against Underworld troops). A brief moment passed, and he flicked the sweat off the back of his hand, before striking a combat pose.
"C'mon, uglies!" he shouted, psyching himself up for the fight that was about to come. "I'll take on all of you at once!"
His wings snapped, feathers quivering in anticipation. The monsters seemed confused by his sudden boldness, but then went for him anyway, obviously deciding the risk was worth the reward. Not that Dark Pit wasn't going to try and disappoint them; the first monster that reached him was met with a dagger to the face, while the second received a similar treatment. The third was coming at him fast, and he leapt up, coming down on the critter's head in a move that would make Mario proud. He bounced off that one to land on the head of the next, and then flung his daggers, nailing the last two in the gut.
He sprung off the monster's head, snapping his leg back to give it a sharp kick for good measure, before coming back to the ground, out of breath. After a moment to collect his breath, he moved to grab his weapons, before he heard a growl behind him, making him stop cold. His feather bristled in disbelief, turning around to see the number of monsters had doubled, a number of them licking their lips hungrily. He was seriously starting to think there was a Mirror of Truth around and no one told him.
Dark Pit reached down, ripping his daggers out of the monsters from before, letting out a deep breath, before charging forward once again.
