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! |

Shindou Takuto | Inazuma Eleven Go | Not Reserved

character.
CHARACTER NAME: Shindou Takuto
SERIES: Inazuma Eleven GO
CANON POINT: Ep 45
APPEARANCE: he looks so derpy here
DESIRED CLASS & REASONING: Lord Partizan, since it’s a mid-range class but has more strength than a Flick Reaper. This is a good fit for Shindou mostly because his position on the soccer team is primarily midfielder. From here, he can assess the player’s movements better than if he’s a striker as well as give commands easier than if he is a defender because he’s pretty much Raimon’s strategist and he needs a good view of the entire field. He’ll take over this role again in battles while in The World and mostly stick to mid-range. He’s also a pretty capable forward when it’s needed of him and he makes quite a lot of goals in Raimon’s favour which is where the strength part of Lord Partizans come in, allowing him to attack and deal damage when he can.
PREVIOUSLY IN HOLYRELIC: n/a
PERSONALITY:
First and foremost, Shindou is a leader. He has an innate ability to inspire people to do their best. It's one of the reasons he's the team captain for a school that is widely reputed for having a strong soccer team. This position is handed over to him when he is only a first year by Sangoku Taichi, an upperclassman on the soccer team, who even tells Shindou that he has 'a talent of bringing the team together like a conductor who waves his baton in an orchestra,' which is true because the team trust him and his decisions greatly. His hissatsu technique, God’s Baton, displays this in that he can use it to direct his teammates where to go, who to pass the ball to and from where to shoot.
Other than his ability to lead, he also possesses other traits that make him a great captain. He is genuinely caring and always puts his team before himself, even outright admitting to Endou, the team's coach, that he is fighting (in the revolution against Fifth sector) for the team's sake and doesn't care about what happens to him. Of course this isn't something he needed to voice for it to be obvious because it's plainly evident through his actions already. Normally very quiet and reserved, Shindou can come off as being too serious at times but when it comes to his team or his friends, he will very vehemently defend them. For example, when Tsurugi Kyousuke, a Seed sent in by Fifth Sector to destroy Raimon's soccer team, insults the team, Shindou displays a very rare occurrence of out of control anger (he even starts crying). Extreme displays of emotion is rare for Shindou and yet for the sake of his team, he allowed anger to completely consume him.
Raimon is incredibly important to him and this is why he doesn't have a very high opinion of Tsurugi at first. This eventually changes when Tsurugi joins their revolution instead of fighting against them and Shindou begins to treat him like any other team member. This shows that despite intellectual prowess on the field, he can be pretty limited in his views. Once he is stuck thinking one thing, he is often unable to see the other side until something drastic comes along to change his mind. Another example of this is his willingness to follow Fifth Sector's rules even though he disagreed with them in the beginning. If he and his team were allowed to play soccer, then this was enough for him because at that time, he thought this was the right thing to do. Later on Tenma is able to persuade him otherwise and once he is part of the revolution, he gives his entire being into fighting to bring back real soccer.
Shindou is incredibly reliable, although sometimes he takes his role too seriously. Usually, this leads him to taking too much responsibility over the team and anything that happens. He will also very willingly accept the blame if it's something negative. Protecting the team is his duty as captain and he will do everything he can to fulfill that, even walk to the stadium on crutches, broken leg be damned, when Tenma needed him in Raimon’s battle against Seidouzan.
Off the field, Shindou is pretty agreeable and has a mild manner although he does have moments where he is a little slow to grasp the point of something. He is friendly though and will always take time encourage friends and let them know that he’s supporting them. He rarely has anything harsh to say unless it’s directed at someone he dislikes a lot. He is also very accepting, which is evident when he allowed Aoyama and Ichino back on the team despite the fact that they left the team after it got beaten down by Tsurugi.
samples.
FIRST-PERSON SAMPLE:
[Despite being more than a little disoriented when he suddenly finds himself not in Inazuma any more, Shindou doesn’t waste any time letting that confusion get the better of him. After sufficient fussing over what's he's wearing (where's his soccer uniform? He hopes nothing happened to it, that would be sad), he immediately sets off to explore the strange city--
--only it somehow manages to confuse him even more. This place is unlike anything he’s used to.]
Maybe I should talk to someone instead. I’m bound to get more answers than just wandering aimlessly...
[Shindou stops right in the middle of the street and stands there chewing on his bottom lip slightly as he tries to plan his next course of action before another thought hits him.]
I wonder if the others are here.
[Because even if this place is completely weird, Shindou wouldn’t mind seeing a familiar face because then at least he’d know he’s not alone.]
THIRD-PERSON SAMPLE: Second character so 8V
ACCEPTED
WELCOME to Holy Relic! There are a few things we'd like to ask of you before jumping in, so please read below and head on over to our welcome post with some ideas for journal setup and a slightly more detailed rehash of the steps below.
(one.) Create your character journal if you haven't already done so, and join the following game communities:
(two.) Comment to our taken series list if your canon hasn't already been posted (or you're an original character, in which case they go in the 'original characters' series post!).
(three.) We have an AIM chat at holyrelic that everyone is more than welcome to join, but if you don't want invites, just let a mod know! There's also a mod plurk for events, app/reserve opening and closing, and asking for occasional quick opinions.
Lastly, we have a comprehensive permissions post with comments by anyone that needs replying to-- this would be for characters with abilities that affect others, such as ability-copying, cannibalism, random violence and so on. If your character has an ability where you'll need permission from others, please make a post in their journal and link to it on the comprehensive permissions post. Then please comment around to any listed posts and help your fellow players out!
Welcome to The World!
