APPLICATIONS ARE OPEN!
The next processing date is Friday 11th October

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 two weeks, 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. If you wish to request a specific apartment, please do so in the relevant part of the application. 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.

Every attempt will be made to place a character in their chosen apartments, though this may not always be possible depending on the slots available.

Applications are open constantly, but are only processed every other Friday at 7PM EST. The Saturday following acceptance, an IC mingle log will be posted for characters to be introduced to the game.

However their conversation is cut short when Phi enters the garden and finds a bomb stuck to a tree inside of it. The three of them go to the infirmary, where everyone else is waiting, and tell them about the bomb. Phi states that she wants to search everyone, as the person who planted the bombs likely has something on them which they can use to deactivate the bombs if need be. Sigma then announces that he knows who planted the bombs. Using vague memories he gained and recalled from previous jumps across the morphogenetic field, he concludes that Dio is the one who planted the bombs. Dio, after being grilled on it, confesses that he did plant the bombs but says he has no way of deactivating them. He does however have a detonator that would instantly detonate all the bombs planted, which would destroy the Rhizome 9 facility and everyone inside it. Feeling cocky, Dio tells them the password to Bomb 02 – a bomb that they had not yet the discovered the location of.

Tenmyouji, in a fit of anger, attacks Dio and knocks the detonator out of his hand. The detonator however has a failsafe mechanism, which triggers if it is a meter away from Dio’s possession. It activates the bombs and sets them to explode within half an hour. The group manages to restrain and knock Dio out afterward, but now with no way to deactivate the bombs they can only wait for certain death.

Before the bombs explode, Luna offers to do the testing on Sigma. As she knows about his ability as an esper and that he can jump through timelines, she knows that he may be able to retain the memories that he forms in this history. Luna confirms that Sigma’s arms are cybernetic, but he himself is a human. Sigma, while relieved, becomes scared at how calm Luna is over the fact that they are about to die. He even remarks that her expression seemed robotic. She then tells him that she was given specific instructions.

“Should you encounter a two-headed lion devouring the sun, remember: GTM-DM-L-016. With this key, the first gate shall be open to you.”

Telling him that she will be waiting for him, while smiling kindly at him, the facility explodes and kills everyone. It turns out that she does end up waiting for him – only in another history, the Luna End of the game. AS A NOTE Luna has no memory of what happens in Luna End because she isn't an esper who can recall timelines. However I will be making mention of it in the personality section, as it is the canon point that reveals the most about Luna. So let me briefly summarize what happens.
