Applications Two

APPLICATIONS ARE CLOSED!
The next application opening date is Friday 16th January, 7pm EST.
The next application processing date is Friday 23rd January, 7pm EST.
IMPORTANT: PLEASE POST YOUR APPLICATIONS HERE ON THE NEW APPLICATION PAGE
We're so glad you're thinking of joining us in Haven, where we are all safe.
In order to apply for a canon character, please fill out the information below and post it in a comment in this entry. For an OC, please apply using the OC information. Please do not link to applications, all applications must be posted here. Please do not delete your applications; if you do not want it to be seen, you can request for it to be screened after a decision is made.
You may apply for two characters every application round, to a total of six characters. Only two of these may be from the same canon, and they cannot be too familiar with one another. Please make sure to mark the header of your comment(s) with RESERVED or NOT RESERVED, as well as the character name and canon. App challenges are not allowed currently.
Try to remember spelling and grammar are important, and in app length quality and not quantity is what matters. All parts of the application must be your own work, plagiarism will not be tolerated, though you are welcome to reuse your own old applications.
If you are asked for revisions, please don't panic! It doesn't mean the mods don't like you, only that we probably need more information before making a decision. If you are asked for revisions, you will have one week to supply them.
Applications are open on a monthly cycle, where they will be opened on the second Friday of every month for a week, and then processed on the third Friday of the month, before being closed again.
We now have a test drive community athaventest which is continuously open. Posts there may be used in lieu of a sample in the application. You may also link posts, logs, or threads from other games and memes in lieu of samples, though we ask that they be no more than one year old. As of November 22nd 2014, samples cannot be "where am I" intro posts. The reason for this is that we often find it hard to gauge characterization from those, as most people when immediately in a new surrounding are confused or frightened.
While we encourage players who have dropped to re-join us, we do not encourage the continual rapid dropping and re-apping of the same character in a short time period. You are welcome to request specific housing, and all attempts will be made to accommodate that request, but it may not always be possible.

no subject
> The power of being Hyobu's eternal chewtoy- okay no, seriously;
> Able to null supernatural abilities/ESP by close proximity. His 'range' for his passive ESP nulling ability increases when he's under a great deal of stress. Has some level of control over this due to the Limiter Hyoubu gave him. Close proximity with espers makes them have headaches or nausea when his powers are active.
> When physically touching someone, he can temporarily disable all ESP by sending a 'pulse' through them (this involves his left eye, which seems to be the source of his Anti-ESP ability in some way). Meaning, he can turn espers into normals for a brief moment of time, no matter how powerful they are, as in canon, Andy successfully neutralises Fujiko Tsubomi's and Hyobu Kyosuke's ESP, who are known to be powerful espers - even the strongest. However, it's unclear how long the effects lasts for, since it's stated that it depends on the person/how long Andy has physical contact for.
> Linked to the ability from above, Andy's 'Null ESP' ability makes him immune to hypnotising and mind reading, makes it difficult to teleport him, and he is able to cancel out powers aimed at him that are telekinesis or conjured fire/electricity/wind - although throwing physical objects at him with telekinesis works perfectly fine.
> Has a biochip implanted in his left eye that gives him several functions, although one of them won't work in Haven: The Person Icon, which allows him to contact USEI agents with a conjured video call through his eye. The other icons are the Combat Icon which gives him a boost with enhanced reflexes/speed, and the Scan Icon, which lets him scan specific areas for tiny details like fingerprints or the like.
> Has had military training, and shown to have high weapon handling capabilities (able to use both close combat weapons such as tonfas, or handle a wide range of firearms from pistols to GPMGs and Sniper Rifles). Also possesses a high level of martial arts training, and is shown to be very swift and agile when fighting close quarters.
Items/Weapons:
> The Limiter that Hyoubu gave him
> Glock 19 firearm
> 60 9mm rounds.

Sample Entry Two: Andy was tempted to start charging a flat rate fee for his gopher duties.
He wasn't sure how he became the unspoken gopher of The Catastrophe, but the moment he set foot on that damned ship, he had been bouncing from one menial task to the next - literally at times, where he learned that the deck of the ship had enough give to let one effectively bounce off of it - and right now, Andy was beginning to think that they were just concocting mind-numbing tasks as a form of bizarre torture. Were they trying to see how long it took for the newbie to crack from the hazing? Maybe they were all just bored psychopaths? Or maybe... they knew...?!
...no, most definitely the bored psychopaths explanation.
"Ahhh..." Andy let out an exhausted, defeated groan, dropping the paintbrush into the can and pressing his hand against his face. He could feel the stickiness of paint cling to his cheeks, but at that point, he honestly stopped caring. He wondered if he would be put out of his misery if he launched himself from the rails of The Catastrophe. Probably not. Damn shame.
"I get climbing from the bottom of the ladder up, but this is just getting ridiculous," he grumbled to himself, stooping down to pick the paintbrush up again. Of course, this placed him in a very vulnerable position - bending down, ass ready to get a solid kick, or a shove - even after his impromptu swimming pool dip, Andy just never learned.
