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 at [community profile] haventest 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.

To see what we are looking for:
Canon Characters:
Sample Application (Faith Lehane)
Sample Application (Iroh)

Original Characters:
Sample Application (Mors)
Sample Application (Vera de Barr)
Sample Application (Malkus Iverwelling)

M-21 | Noblesse | Not Reserved 4/4

[personal profile] securitydog 2014-08-15 08:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Abilities/Powers:
As a modified human (or ex-human as he’s no longer considered a human even by his own standards), M-21 has enhanced abilities: from speed (which has gone far beyond that of normal modified human standards even to the point he can match speeds with young Nobles like Regis and Rael), to strength, agility, and his senses. He is capable of hearing things from a far distance. He also has the ability to resist mind control as he practiced with his friend, M-24, to build up resistance to mental attacks.

Beyond that, M-21 is also part werewolf which affects his abilities in comparison to other modified humans. He has super regenerative abilities that allow him to heal from wounds that would be severe for others in minutes and potentially fatal ones in a matter of hours. If he had full control of his werewolf side, M-21 would be capable of fully transforming into a wolf-human hybrid, but he currently only has the ability to transform his hands into razor-sharp claws that are nearly unbreakable. The transformation extends up his lower arms with thick, protective fur.

He also has a strange ability to piss people off (seriously he does it so well some people don’t care how obvious it is that he’s doing it on purpose). This is a skill he has been practicing as he uses it against the young Noble, Regis, all the time (and it seems the others know about it).

Items/Weapons: The clothes on his back.

Sample Entry:
[After everything had calmed down, just when things were sliding back into their version of normal…he wakes up in this place? M-21 is sure this is some kind of trap. Had the Union found them? But he isn’t sure how someone would have managed to get into Frankenstein’s home without him noticing. Nothing is missing, he’s still in the simple pants and shirt he was in when they returned indoors for the night.

When was that? How long has it been? Finding the phone doesn’t provide him with anymore answers than he had before. The fact there are no numbers to call makes it more confusing, not less. Damn it. They were never going to catch a break at this rate.]


Who is listening to this? Where is this and why did you bring me here? [There’s a bit of a growl in his voice, because he’s pissed off. But overall he’s keeping his tone flat.] If you weren’t going to give me answers, there wouldn’t be a reason to take my phone and leave such a crappy one in its place.

Sample Entry Two:
This was a bad idea.

They were in the cargo hold of a plane headed for places unknown—it was cold and the sharp jostles of the plane’s flight sent them jerking about if they weren’t careful to keep their centers of gravity. They had been about to be left behind—as close to abandoned as they could be when Frankenstein was leaving them with all the money they could need to provide for themselves and no assurance he and Rai would ever come back—and they couldn’t have that. Not after everything that had been done. To them. For them. They couldn’t let it go and so they had decided to follow.

It was a bad idea, but the only choice they could have made. Would have made.

Tao seemed pumped by the entire thing, he was excited and filled with energy, telling jokes and sending playful jibes at them, all with one of those near-maniacal smiles on his faces. It’s the closest he had ever seen someone resemble Frankenstein when he was in a good mood.

Not an image that he wanted in his mind at the moment.

Takeo was taking it all calmly, but each jerk of the plane put him on edge. M-21 didn’t blame him for being wary. Stuck in the cargo hold of the plane, they had no idea what was going on outside. They were in hands of Fate and all three of them had about enough of that already. But there was nothing they could do, so they waited.

Waiting is shit. M-21 preferred to do something instead of sitting around waiting for the other shoe to drop. Being stuck there, not knowing what was going to become of the situation—or even what the entire situation was. Of course, that ass Frankenstein hadn’t told them—made him twitchy, annoyed. He wanted to know, wanted to be able to act.

And of course taking action was how they had ended up in here. Choices and consequences. One of these days, he hoped they’d get a damn break.

Except, the world would have to be ending for him to trust it.

When they felt the sudden tilt, the plane tipping down and diving toward the ground, he realized that maybe he shouldn’t even think about stupid things before he jinxed them all to early graves. The universe must have thought asking for a break was too damn much, even if he didn’t expect to get it.

Something to remember for the future. Now they just had to get out of the damn plane alive.
