Application Form



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.

Samples:
First Person Sample: So I guess I'm here now with the rest of you guys, and we're fighting A) monsters that pop up out of nowhere and B) sketchy mysterious organizations nobody knows anything about. That works. In an I-could-have-done-this-at-home kind of way. Kind of like how no one wants to go to McDonald's when they go to France. It's probably different for most of you, though. Is it?

Anyway, I'm Mila Kawena, robotics engineer for the Trinity Gift project. If any of you know what that means, I'll be surprised. I didn't see Eyes, Ace, or Princess here, and judging by the rest of you, this place takes the hero-types first.

Third Person Sample: Prospero had some fun celebrations. Festivals, competitions at bars, the odd parade through town on holidays. Mila approved, to a point, and that point was that everything could always be improved. Besides, there was always a holiday to celebrate just to weird people out. Like... She scrolled down the list of April holidays (the captives' phones were glorious, glorious inventions). Hmm. National Stress Awareness Day? No, that wasn't going to do. Spring Astronomy Day? Too far away. DNA Day! Perfect.

She unrolled enough graph paper to cover her desk, set a lined notebook on one corner to weigh it down, and started to write down some ideas. Giant double helix sculptures throughout town. Maybe streamers in the hotel lobby. She could hang them from the ceiling. How about a big cloth map of the human genome over the pool table? Mila scratched out plans on the graph paper. Perfect.
