APPLICATIONS
Apps will open on June 23rd at 11:59 am EST
Player Cap: 30/70
| Before you submit your application, please review the Applications and Reserves section of the info / faq page, as there are additional rules regarding malleable protagonists, CRAU characters, fandom OCs, canon caps, player caps, and other important things to note. Applications will be processed in the order they are received and after the application cycle closes. We will only accept as many players as we have player slots, however, we will review all applications submitted during the cycle. Application cycles are not first come first serve, and instead will be judged on clarity of the app and samples. Application revisions will have three days to submit adjustments. If not submitted in time, they will have to wait until the next application cycle to resubmit. Application rejections will have to wait until the next application cycle to resubmit unless otherwise specified in the original rejection. You may either post your application in a comment to this post, or link to it from your character journal. Please use the following format for your comment in the subject line: CHARACTER | CANON | RESERVED / NOT RESERVED There is a limit of 2 characters initially maximum that can be played. (You can redeem additional character slots by way of the rewards page.) As with reservations, you may apply for 2 characters at a time. Proxy applications are not accepted. We do not accept application challenges. We do not accept duplicate characters. We only accept applications for 1 malleable protagonist in a cast. Malleable protagonists may not have preexisting relationships with other characters from their canon aside from base storyline. (Exceptions will potentially be made for CRAUs and handled on a case-by-case basis.) Fandom OC characters are accepted, but may not have preexisting relationships with other characters from their canon. (Exceptions will potentially be made for CRAUs and handled on a case-by-case basis.) CRAU characters are accepted, however, must not be so removed from their original canon state that they are unrecognisable. CRAU characters who carry a multitude of prior games may only carry over memories, relationships, and experiences from their most recent game. |
APPLICATION FORM
| Player: Contact: Age: Current Characters: If applicable. Character Name: Character Canon: If applicable. Canon Point: Age: Crime: All characters are accused of a crime upon their arrival, and it's printed on their indestructible parchment. This crime can be fitting of your character or ill-fitting. It can be a crime they've committed or a crime they would never commit. Consider that Expiation's definition of crimes may not mirror reflect what we think of when we consider crime in the real world. Feel free to think a little out of the box and more abstract. Fiction versus reality here doesn't so much make a difference. Please choose one crime, bearing in mind that there may be occasions in which the crime chosen could affect how a character interacts with certain events or situations. Background: You may provide a link to a wiki, for canon characters. If your wiki has limited information, or your character may not have much canon behind them, you are expected to write supplemental details without leaning too heavily into headcanon. For OCs, you don't need to provide an overly verbose background, just enough to give an accurate portrayal of the world they come from and definitive experiences that are important to their character. For CRAUS, please specify additional information about what they are carrying over from their prior game. This can also be limited to definitive experiences and relationships. Personality: Although this game heavily relies on the analysis and reflection of a character, we don't expect a dissertation. Please provide information on your character's motivations, how their relationships and experiences have affected or shaped them, and other related information. You may use character dialogue to further showcase this, but it's not expected. If you find it easier to use bullet point formats, feel free to do that. Please do not exceed 800 words. Abilities: If your character has any special abilities (magic, weapon skills, and so on), please list them here. Remember that world-breaking abilities will be diluted. Inventory: A list of inventory that your character is carrying on them can be put here. Characters will not have access to an infinite hammer space, so please only list things that would make sense for your character to be physically carrying. Samples: Two recent samples from the last year are required and must adequately convey a character's voice. In a thread, we prefer at least five comments from you. At least one sample must be from the current TDM post. Other threads may be taken from bakerstreet, other games, or other memes. During application review, not only will we be judging for characterization, but also longevity and completion of threads. Not all threads have to be finished before being submitted, but the mod team would like to see an effort in furthering the thread if it's not completed. Questions: If you have any questions for the mod team, please include them here and we will address them during the processing of your application. |

REVISIONS REQUESTED
-We would like some more clarity on the "life-stealing dagger" and what it does, as well as a little more clarification on how the character's abilities relate to a DWRPs setting, rather than DND.
-Additionally, we would like to see a little more information on how your character's more negative personality traits affect others around them, particularly in relationship to other player characters.
Please note that you have 3 days to submit your revisions. If you miss this timeline, you will have to wait until the next application cycle (February 2024) to resubmit.

I'll tear you up in two
Go ahead walk it off if you know what's best for you.

Abilities.
Life-stealing dagger— Enchanted dagger, when opponent is hit with it, it will draw a bit of their health, and give it to Eve. Health can be regenerated by sleeping, but imagine fighting someone where whenever they hit you, they get a little bit stronger, and you get a little weaker. (And I mean a little bit, at first it wouldn’t be noticeable.)
He can use telekinesis, but only if the item weighs less than 10 pounds. This can be used to deactivate bombs or traps from a distance.
Can shapeshift essentially without limit, but if he shapeshifts into a player character..people that know them have a good chance at figuring it out, because he wouldn’t know their mannerisms yet. It’s why he generally fakes being people that others would not know.
Good reflexes, can dodge well, and if there are traps somewhere, he becomes paranoid.
He is good with smaller weapons, especially daggers (can use any small sharp weapon very well. Ex: A kukri knife, or a throwing dart.)
He knows how to fight in any armor lighter than a chainmail shirt (Armor made out of leather, or cloth.)
Other armors and weapons are hard for him to use, as he has never been trained with them. It would be like giving someone who’s trained with a spear their whole life a long sword.
Invisibility—Eve can make himself invisible, but can only do it twice a day, for 1 hour at a time
Mirror Image—This spell makes three duplicates of him. They can take damage, but it kills them instantly. They seem real and can be touched. They can function even when he is far away, though he has to control them when they are spoken to, causing him to have to split his concentration.
Eve is a surprisingly good cook, for reasons unknown, that he will never tell you. (Aka. He was the middle child, so he didn’t really have a career plan set up, so his parents just had him help around the house a lot of the time.)
