APPLICATIONS;
| APPS are OPEN | |
✦Please read the rules, the Application FAQ, and the Game FAQ before you apply. Application Explanations PLAYER Nickname: What you, the player, wants to go by in the game. Age: You don’t need to tell us specifics, but we’d like to know if you are under 18. Do not lie about your age, doing so will result in an automatic ban. Personal LJ/DW: Link us to your personal journal, if you have one. If you do not have one, that's fine! Method of Contact: IM, Plurk, Email, PMs, etc. Tell us how we can get a hold of you. Characters Played: How many characters do you play in Velvet Keys and who are they? If you are new, ignore this. CHARACTER Name: The characters name, in western order of first, last. Age: Your character’s age, to your best guess. Canon: The title of the canon or canons your character is from. If you are applying for an original character, state that here. Pull Point: From what point is the character being brought into Velvet Key? Be as specific as possible. BACKGROUND History:The history of the canon setting and the specific history of your character. Either a link or condensed written history will suffice. Personality: We require at least two paragraphs for this section. Here is where you show us how well you know your character. Tell us their good and bad traits, their fears, hopes, dreams, and quirks. How did their relationships and experiences shape them? We don’t just want an overview; give us all the little details that make up this character. GAME SPECIFIC Arcana: Which arcana do you think fits this character? Justification: Why does this arcana fit this character? Give us at least a few sentences of explanation. SAMPLES First Person Sample:This is a main comm post that should be written in the first person. This is the opportunity to show off your character’s voice. We would like this to be at least three to four sentences. Third Person Sample: This sample should be written in the third person, just like an entry for the log comm. This should showcase your character’s personality and how they think, act, and move. We would like this to be at least a paragraph in length. | |

Liquid Snake | Metal Gear | Non-Reserved | 3/3
First Person Sample:
Finally. What the devil was wrong with my old phone, anyway?
[Beep. Beeeeeeep. Beepity. The pervasive sound of the buttons being pressed likely sounds grating. Beep. Beeep.]
Hm. Is it already calling? Well then.
[A low, irritable laugh.]
This is quite the amusing joke. If you're behind this, Mantis, I hope you realize you're probably going to be in trouble quite soon. If not...
[His words are cold, the accent clearly upper-class British. They mask concern.]
Then this must be some kind of VR. I want out of this simulation. Now.
...Is anyone even out there?
Third Person Sample:
They were everywhere.
Shadows, all over the place. They seemed never ending; a flood of darkness that crept out of the depths of the night as if they were made from it. He sprang back, landing in a crouch on the ground and using it as leverage to jump. The streetlamp that he grabbed onto was thankfully unlit. The last thing he would have wanted was to end up blinded. As it was the metal was just strong enough to support his weight.
Swinging himself up to sit up on it, he rose to stand there, trying to see into the distance. The eerie light of the moon seemed to cast an unnatural glow over the areas that could be seen. But this moment of reverie could not last. The lamp shuddered as one of the shadows struck at it and he barely caught his balance in time. Bracing himself, he mentally took a check of ammunition. Not enough. Not for all of these. Not by far. There had to be some other way.
There had to be something he could do.
Gritting his teeth, he looked around for something. But there was nothing. The streetlamp bent, twisted-
-and fell.
He leapt free, flipping over to land on his feet again, backed up against a building. There was nothing he could do. After all of this, was he truly going to die in what appeared to be some kind of Lovecraftian nightmare?
It was impossible to accept. There was no way he'd allow that to happen. What was it the others had said? Something about a Persona... If he could just figure that out, then perhaps this would not be a lost cause after all.
In the end, he had to keep going. This was just a respite, after all. Snake was waiting for him.
His revenge was waiting.
And so help him, he was not going to let it end here.
ACCEPTED!!
ACCEPTED.
