▸PLAYER
Name: Alba
Means of Contact: Email. jaberrywrites AT gmail DOT com
Age: 28
Other Characters Played: The Inquisitor.
▸CHARACTER
Name: Soundwave
Journal: tilallareequal
Canon: Transformers
Age: Approximately five million years old.
Canon Point: Post-Transformers: Robots in Disguise IDW #31
World Description:
(For OCs only. Please describe the setting your character comes from.)
Background Information:
His background thus far.
Personality:
(As a loose guideline, we would expect canon characters to have a personality section of around 500 words minimum and OCs to have a minimum of around 800 words. Don't worry too much about hitting exact word counts! We're more concerned with content than length. If you have a lot more to say—go for it. If your character is a minor character and there simply isn't that much to say—we understand. A good rule of thumb when writing your app is to assume the person reading it will be canon blind; provide explanations for canon-specific terms and don't assume that readers will know the full details of what events occurred or who other characters are.
Note that we discourage the use of headcanon, but if you feel you need to include it to help flesh out a character, please make sure that it has a solid basis in canon and clearly indicate it as separate from the purely canon information. We will not accept canon characters whose apps are primarily headcanon.)
Appearance:
(Description and/or a link to an image is fine!)
Abilities:
(If a character has magical or otherwise better-than-human abilities, they should be described here. Just listing them out without explanation may not be enough, so please detail what they are, their strengths and limitations, etc. If a wiki exists with good, detailed information, it may be used to supplement your summary.)
▸SAMPLES:
(One sample may be a link to a post/log thread of decent length that's occurred in the last six months from another game, or from a meme/musebox if the setting is the same as what the character will be apped from and the thread provides a good example of characterization — i.e. no AU settings or overly cracky memes. The other sample must be written to take place in Carvaka's setting.
For the Carvaka-specific sample, we're looking for a good example of character voice and how the character will adapt to the setting. We suggest avoiding "where am I?" or "where are my friends?" type samples, as these tend to be generic and often not fully representative of a character's normal behavior. You can still send in these kinds of samples if you wish to, but we advise applicants to consider whether or not they fulfill the requirements that we're looking for.)
First Person:
(A 'network style' post.)
Third Person:
(A 'log style' post. Bracket or prose text are both acceptable.)
