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.

nagisa hazukii → free! iwatobi swim club → not reserved
Nagisa is actually the type to throw caution to the wind, and not consider consequences of his actions very well. Breaking into the Iwatobi Swimming Club, and Samezuka's pool are prime examples of him focusing more on the fun aspect of things instead of downsides that could happen. He also has a lack of a brain to mouth filter, often speaking without thinking, such as when he thinks they should have their homeroom teacher dress up in a swimsuit to get more members. Nagisa pretty much has no shame at all, he's perfectly comfortable in most situations, going so far as to skinny dip in Samezuka's pool after breaking in. This sticks with him to the next season, proudly showing off his muscles in front of the entire school, even having fun with it whereas most people would be a little embarrassed by it.
He's also extremely pushy, which can be a good and bad thing. The more positive side of it is that his determination is what led to the four of them (Rin, Makoto, Haru, and Nagisa) being such good friends as children because he was so adamant about being friends. Later on in high school, it's because of his enthusiasm that ultimately leads to Makoto, Haru, and Nagisa forming a swim team. It's that same determination that wanted to help Rin become friends with everyone again, and get him back to his old self. He constantly puts in all of his effort during training. The downside is he can often come off as very stubborn, or even pushy. He often doesn't care about what other people might say as a protest, even dragging them along into whatever he's doing. he practically coerced Rei into joining the swim team, even when he vehemently opposed to it, but Nagisa quit? Nope. He did everything he could to get him to join.
If there's one thing Nagisa prioritizes above all else, it's the bonds he has with his friends. If there's something he can do to help his friends, he'll divert all of his energy to doing it. No questions asked. He helped search for Haru for hours to tell him they could still swim in the tournament, and even went to his house to find him. Nagisa is completely dedicated to his friends, and latches onto them like a barnacle when he finds people he can be good friends with. He was persistent to be friends with Makoto and Haru as children, and even persisted in hanging out with them in high school. What makes nagisa happiest is his friends being truly happy, and giving their all in things they love. For a majority of the season, Rin was cold and uncaring toward Nagisa. But he persisted in being friends, and it's why he was all for letting Rin swim with them in the relay, even if it got them disqualified. Rin is a dear friend to him, and seeing him happy after all the challenges he faced that year.
If Nagisa thinks there's even the slightest thing wrong with a friend, he won't stop until he either knows what's wrong and fixes it, or finds a way to cheer them up. Rei had been disappearing often after practice, and Nagisa was extremely worried he was leaving the swim team. They held a meeting at Haru's house, and Nagisa made a long speech of how much Rei meant to the team and he didn't want to lose a friend. He even went so far as to start tailing him. But nothing in the world makes him happier than seeing his friends try their very hardest at something, which is why is meant so much to him to see Rei getting special training from Rin after school. It filled him with immense joy to see a good friend of his trying so hard to impress them, show how much he'd grown, and continue swimming with them.
Nagisa does actually have a rather childish side, especially when he becomes unhappy. He'll pout and even go so far as to bump his head against them and rub his head on people when they're being lame fart faces. Such as when Rei rejected Nagisa's suggestion to swim the breaststroke in the relay for that year. There have only been a few times in the series when Nagisa was actually sad as opposed to pouting, but even that didn't last for long as he was more concerned about his friend's well being. When Nagisa learned from Ai that Rin had been losing his swimming mojo, he was concerned Rin would quit swimming, and losing a friend who shared an activity they all adored so much really brought him down. Rather than spending his time being sad, he redirects as concern for his friends, and does what he can to help them feel better. When Rei was freaking out about Makoto almost drowning because of him, nagisa calmed him down and told him they would be okay.
Abilities/Powers: Nagisa fairs pretty average as people go, but his most noticeable skill is his how good he is at the breast stroke. Well, that, and his knack for finding trouble.
Items/Weapons: A change of clothes, his duffel bag containing his swim gear, and his giant penguin plush.
Sample Entry: thread
Sample Entry Two: There had been a lot of things on his mind since arriving at Haven, but the one Nagisa was most focused on? Getting a decent smile on Makoto and Haru's faces. It pained him to see two of his dearest friends being so devoid of who he knew them as. It was as though this place sucked all the joy out of them, and the thought of that crushed Nagisa's heart. Even worse was there was no easily accessible pool here to even let them swim or relax in. Truth be told, it was something they all needed right now.
But Nagisa doesn't stand down in the face of odds stacked against him. So they didn't have a pool, there was bound to be something around here to help cheer the two of them up. Maybe he could search around for some flowers to brighten their mood, or they could find something to paint with and make posters, just for the fun of it. Haru and Makoto needed something bright in their lives right now, and Nagisa had a feeling his oh so adorable personality wasn't quite going to cut it.
"Hm... maybe I'll let them hug Guin-chan. She gives really therapeutic hugs, so it might help." He's finding out just how limited his options are, but he's Nagisa. He always finds a way to make do.
