The Application

[Satanick]

Character Template:

[b]Name:[/b] (Pretty self-explanatory. If they have a nickname they prefer to go by, that goes here too.)

[b]Age:[/b] (How old is your character? No younger than 8 please.)

[b]Date of Birth:[/b] (The month and day on which they were born. Year should remain ambiguous given the ambiguity of the year IC.)

[b]Birthplace:[/b] (Where were they born? If they moved at any point, where did they spend most of their life?)

[b]Gender:[/b] (There are a few options for this. I'll let you figure them out.)

[b]Sexual Orientation:[/b] (Heterosexual? Homosexual? Bisexual? Anything with a hole?)

[b]Face Claim:[/b] (Tell us the name of who you're using for your character's face claim, along with what series they're from. If it's original artwork, then simply put "Original Art" and, if you know who it is, the name of the artist. Anime/anime-style characters only, please.)

[b]Appearance:[/b] (If you wish, you may either type out a full description of the character, or you post a picture. Can either be three 100 x 100 icons (preferably matching), or a single larger image. All I ask is that it's not too large.)

[b]Height:[/b] (How tall is your character? Preferably in feet and inches. Try to keep this realistic.)

[b]Distinguishing Features:[/b] (If you chose to simply post a picture for Appearance, then list anything that isn't shown in the picture here. Things like scars or piercings. If you typed out a full description, then feel free to skip this one.)

[b]Class:[/b] (Persona-user or Civilian?)

[b]Arcana:[/b] (What arcana does your character belong to based on their personality? If you are having trouble picking one based on your character, feel free to ask staff for thoughts. Choices are limited to the major arcana of the Rider-Waite Deck. The World and Judgment are not permitted. You may alternatively pick from the Jester, Hunger, Lust, and Aeon from the Thoth deck if you feel it to be appropriate. I stress that you please choose arcana as accurate to your character as you can. We will not be stingy about this, but we will not overlook any glaring inconsistencies.)

[b]Occupation:[/b] (Where does your character work? Are they unemployed? Or are they just a student?)

[b]Starting Equipment:[/b] (Persona Users only)(Persona Users can start with a level 1 weapon of choice for free. You also need to list what type of damage each weapon type does. Ex: Slash/Pierce/Strike. Your character may use some of their starting Fate Points to start with more equipment if you want. The cost of this equipment is equivalent to the costs in the equipment shop. You are allotted 1,000 points to spend between starting equipment and Persona skills. Any unspent points will be added to your starting amount upon character acceptance. You may also 'upgrade' your free starting weapon to a level 2 weapon for 500 points if you wish so you don't have to buy a whole new level 2 weapon.)

[b]Personality:[/b] (How do they usually act? Do certain types of people or situations make them act in a different manner? Do they have any deep secrets or insecurities? All of that goes here. A minimum of one paragraphs is required here, but, otherwise, feel free to make it as long and detailed as you feel the need to.)

[b]Likes:[/b] (a small list of at least four things or a written explanation of whatever you want is fine)

[b]Dislikes:[/b] (a small list of at least four things or a written explanation of whatever you want is fine)

[b]History:[/b] (Where did they grow up? What was their childhood like? Did anything interesting happen during their life? Either way, this must be at least two paragraphs. For civilians, the history can simply go up to nearly present time. For persona users, it should at least go up to the awakening of their persona. Users may be awakened via simply waking up during the Dark Hour, being forcefully dragged out of your coffin and awakening to a Persona following that, or by naturally being able to experience it before current events.)

[b]OOC Name:[/b] (This is so people know who plays this character. What name do you go by on the cbox?)

[b]Notes:[/b](Optional)(Any trivial knowledge regarding the character can be put here. It's entirely optional, but it can be used to add additional flavor.)

<Anything below isn't needed for civilians.>

[b]Persona:[/b] (The name of your starting persona. Your starting persona should be something that is usually found somewhat early in the games. (1-39~ level range) We aren't too stingy about this, but don't go picking Satan as a starting Persona for example. If you are unsure about whether your persona qualifies, ask a staff member. Your persona can be one from the games, or can be something not made into a persona yet. Your persona should also match your character's arcana. Some persona may match up to multiple arcana; and as such I will not be too picky with what persona you choose under your arcana.)

[b]Appearance:[/b] (A picture or description of your persona. Just make sure it doesn't stretch the page.)

[b]Persona Lore:[/b] (This can be a description of what your persona is. Basically, what mythology or concept it stems from. You can keep this simple, or you may link an existing description of your persona.)

[b]Skills:[/b] (Skills may be 'bought' at the Persona Shop to start with on your Persona. You will start with 1,000 Fate Points to spend on whatever you want. Please keep in mind any skill restrictions that the shop lists, however. Any unspent points will simply be added to your character's starting total upon acceptance. They may also be spent on equipment if you wish.)

[b]Strengths and Weaknesses:[/b] (Your starter persona can have a resistance in anything in return for a weakness in anything. You must have at least one weakness and resistance, or you may have 2 of each. See the 'Explanation on Points and Progression' in the Getting Started section of the rules for details.)
