The 'personality' section should be at least a few decently-sized paragraphs, to give us an idea of what the character is like. Try to consider their strengths and weaknesses, as well as how curious they are. If they're the naturally inquisitive type, the mods can put exploration plots forth for you.

The writing sample could be a link to a thread, a request to thread with a mod, or a prose sample. It must be in prose, but other than that the sky's the limit.


Rules and Fine Print:
1. Players may introduce one new character per month.
2. We have a soft cap of five characters per player - however, if you are active with all five of your existing characters, we will consider sixth and seventh characters on a case by case basis.
3. Canon characters and fandom/non-fandom OC's are allowed. AU's, including both canon AU's and fan-made AU's are allowed. Fan-made AU's must show significant understanding of how the changes in the AU have affected the character.
4. Should you choose to, you may skip the jamjar setting restraints and app in an AU of your character who has always existed in the Winter universe. Please contact the mods about this, as we would be delighted to help you design a history for your character that makes sense for the setting and satisfies you.
5. One player apping multiple characters from the same canon will be considered on a case by case basis. If the characters have close CR, you can't play both as you're setting yourself up for selfcest.
6. Doubles of the same character (for example, Spider-Man from Marvel 616 and Spider-Man from the Marvel Movies) will be considered on a case-by-case basis. They must be significantly different from each other and both players must be alright with it.
7. No historical figures unless they're significantly different than the actual historical figure (for example, Abraham Lincoln the Vampire Slayer is okay, but Abraham Lincoln just as a president is not).
8. All characters must be humanized. This doesn't have to mean they think they're human (they can believe they are and have the powers of a space elf, if you want), but their physical bodies will be human.

A note about importing CR: unless the other halves of your CR are apping into the game, we reserve the right to ask you to revise your character's in-game history so those characters are expies. For example, if your character had CR with Jean Grey in a prior game, we may ask that your character actually knew Jane Greene, so as not to infomod future Jean Grey players or spring an unexpected castmate on them. If someone apps in the other half of your CR, you must get their okay to have that CR remembered, and if the player declines then the CR your character remembers must remain expied.

Please post here! Your comment will be screened and the mods will get back to you within three days. We will probably pull you into a private chat/plurk/email so we can work out with you directly how your characters' powers or items will work in the game, or to configure your backstory if you're apping a game AU. Your comment will be unscreened after approval.

Character Special Abilities (can be a link to Wiki): Edward is an alchemist, someone with the ability to near-instantaneously transmute base materials into an object of equal mass and chemical makeup. For instance, he can transform a broken radio into one in perfect working order, transform sand into a spear, a piece of wood into a rocking horse. There are some caveats to this ability, most notably in transmuting living creatures -- while he's capable of combining animals into hybrids called chimeras, it's markedly more difficult (perhaps even impossible) to reverse the transformation. He is also prohibited from attempting transmutations using human beings/lives; though it's possible, and he's performed alchemy with humans as materials before, the practice is incredibly dangerous and prone to backfiring if the ingredients used in the transmutation are not exactly what is required for the end product. In general, alchemy involving organic matter is trickier than inorganic matter, especially where humans are involved.

In addition, alchemy consists of two distinct stages of manipulating matter, 'destroying' the base materials and 'creating' the end product out of them. Edward is capable of stopping an alchemical reaction before it's complete, with the end result of simply destroying/breaking apart whatever he was using as his ingredient base. Because this doesn't require the process of reforming anything, Edward can use this to destroy organic or inorganic matter with little risk of alchemical rebound.

While it's not a power, Edward's right arm and his leg below the mid-thigh are prosthetic limbs made of metal and attached to his nerves, allowing him to move them as he might ordinary limbs. This allows him to, say, block a lion's fangs with his arm, but also renders him incapable of swimming, as the weight of the metal negate his natural buoyancy.
Items/Pets Characters Will Arrive With: His clothes, a briefcase with some travel gear in it (like a cup, plate, fork, change of clothes, etc.)

[zouichi]

Player Name: Tetra
Player E-Mail: tetradecimal [at] pandemona [dot] net
Player Plurk/AIM/DW (optional): http://www.plurk.com/Tetradecimal/Tetravolte/tetradecimal
Invited By (new players only): Lisa

Character Name: Kanoe Zouichi
Character Canon: Biomega
Character Journal: zouichi
Canon Point Character is Taken From: Before the reconstitution of the Earth as the Recreator
Importing Game CR (Y/N and Which Game): Y, T9
If OC, a brief summary of their history and personality:
If fan-made AU, what has changed in your character's history? What changes has the AU made to your character's personality? These changes, both to the canon and to the character's personality, must be significant enough to qualify as needing an AU.

Character Special Abilities (can be a link to Wiki): Zouichi himself has the following abilities:
* Zouichi does not need to eat or drink as much as a human would. He can apparently survive up to five years on minimal amounts of water.
* Zouichi's ability to withstand pressure and extremely lax oxygen requirements allow him to survive in space or underwater for extended periods of time.
* Zouichi is significantly faster, stronger, more coordinated, and more durable than a human, able to lift large boulders and toss them around. He has been stabbed multiple times with projectiles/laser swords/etc and still continuing on with his mission, though his capabilities were significantly reduced until he had time to heal. In addition, Zouichi has a rather dull sense of pain -- later on in the manga, someone shears off his leg below the shin and he hardly bats an eye.
* His visual systems provide him with a form of augmented reality, superimposing targeting cursors, estimated enemy speed, composition of incoming projectiles, etc. over his normal vision, allowing him to react, aim, and shoot with excellent accuracy and speed.
* He also has some limited regeneration abilities. He can recover from serious wounds (requiring hospitalization) within a few days. Certain poisons can interfere with his healing factor.
* Zouichi can interface with compatible computer systems to download information (like foreign languages) or interact with virtual worlds. However, unless the castle has 31st-century Earth technology readily available, this probably won't be too useful.
* If Zouichi's limbs are ever lopped off, they're automatically replaced in short order by a functional prosthesis, but he cannot regenerate the actual limb.
Items/Pets Characters Will Arrive With:
* Rapid-fire Gravitational Beam Emission Pistol: Zouichi's primary weapon, a low-yield gravity gun capable of punching holes in solid objects several feet wide. It's about the size of an average firearm, and occasionally needs a few seconds to charge after extensive firing.

* Toua Heavy Industries 4000XL Coil Rifle: A large, unwieldy-looking blockish gun that has takes several seconds between shots, but is also capable of high damage output. When not in use, it's folded up and is a somewhat longer and narrower than a briefcase. The range of the rifle is dependent on how the modular barrel is configured, and can be lengthened or shortened to accommodate the type of shells loaded into the gun. Zouichi has used this gun to blow off the top of a building and shoot down incoming ICBMs.

* Axe: It's stored in his bike and appears to be made out of an extremely durable metal compound (it's been shown to last a couple hundred years at least)

* Bio-Armor: Zouichi's body armor provides excellent protection against impact damage (less against stabbing damage). It can also extend a protective membrane to protect his head and face if he loses his helmet, or extend a cosmetic membrane over itself to form basic camouflage.

* HDC-08B-3 Toua Heavy Industries Custom Motorbike (Heavy Duty Coil): His AI partner, Fuyu, is usually interfacing with the motorcycle, providing generic support (“that plane has missiles!”). Like many manga motorcycles, it can jump improbably high and is fast. It can also provide additional energy for the coil rifle. It can run underwater and is equipped with a powerful front-mounted energy cannon.

* Safeguard Sword: A blade about the length of a short sword, this weapon can be used to activated or simply used as a blunt instrument to hit someone with. When active, it becomes an energy blade which cuts through most matter like a knife through butter.

* Parrot: Zouichi has acquired a pet parrot in his time aboard the Transmigration 9. It's medium-sized (for a parrot), with bright feathers. It can talk, but is not sentient.

Character Name: James "Noir" Mendetta
Character Canon: Teen Titans AU OC
Character Journal: fedorafan
Canon Point Character is Taken From: First Death
Importing Game CR (Y/N and Which Game): nope
If OC, a brief summary of their history and personality:

James Mendetta was a good boy growing up in Jump City California. His Father was a Police Detective continuing a long line of proud law enforcement and someday James hoped to follow in his footsteps.

But all that changed for him one day while chasing some street thugs into an abandoned construction site. The thugs had mugged someone and Noir was planning on beating them senseless and making a citizens arrest. The thugs actually overpowered Noir but when they escaped they dropped the briefcase they had stolen.

Inside the briefcase was a strange looking black stone that exploded with bright purple light the minute Noir touched it. The stone was actually a magical artifact connecting the mortal world to "The Shadowlands" and had embedded it's powers in Noir.

The stress of trying to hide the transformation became too much and Noir ran away from home because his father was racist against Metahumans. Eventually after some rough first attempts he joined the Teen Titans and began to train with them to control his new powers. But his time with them ran short as a member of the team who he had fallen in love with betrayed him and stabbed him twice in the chest before kicking him off the roof of their base.

Noir can be gruff, overly serious and a jerk often, especially to people he doesn't know, but on his lighter side he's a cocky self confident smartass who loses his temper, over-reacts and is fiercely loyal and protective of those he cares about. He likes to think of himself as an anti-hero but in his heart he's a good person who wants to use his strengths to protect the weak and stand up for what's right, even if that isn't always clear.

If fan-made AU, what has changed in your character's history? What changes has the AU made to your character's personality? These changes, both to the canon and to the character's personality, must be significant enough to qualify as needing an AU. In the Teen Titans AU that Noir is from the members of the team alternated frequently and the only solid long term members were Beastboy, Terra, Raven and Jinx

Character Special Abilities (can be a link to Wiki):
All of these powers are difficult to control at first and will exhaust him after significant use. Over time and practice it will become easier.

Intangibility: Noir's body can become intangible for a few seconds allowing for last minute dodging or the occasional keyless entrance. But the longer he remains intangible the more exhausting and hungry he gets.

Shadow blasts: These come in two forms, either a hyper concentrated blast through the tip of his finger that hits with the force of a canon and hurts Noir's hand. This is his most draining attack. When he performs the attack with an open palm or channels it through his hole fist it spreads out more like a shotgun blast but the power behind it is weaker.

Shadow manipulation: using this power Noir will eventually be able to form his shadows into tentacles, blades and other shapes. But this power cannot be unlocked without additional training.

Teleportation: Another power he has yet to unlock, but using this power Noir can travel through one shadow and reappear out of another one so long as he can see it.

Weakness: Noir has a weakness to bright lights and light based powers.

Items/Pets Characters Will Arrive With: The clothes he was wearing when he died and his favorite Fedora and pair of sunglasses.

Character Name: Satellizer L. Bridget
Character Canon: Freezing
Character Journal: queenoftheforlornheart
Canon Point Character is Taken From: After her podding from Trans 9
Importing Game CR (Y/N and Which Game): Y - Trans 9

Character Special Abilities (can be a link to Wiki):

Satellizer has a set of abilities due to her DNA, and her Stigma’s. She’s a Pandora;

Pandora
Genetically-engineered girls with incredible speed and strength. They are capable of materializing their own unique weapons called Volt Weapons. They have a self-regenerating material called Volt Texture that is activated with their Stigmata, which heightens and improves their senses like hearing and eyesight and allows them to make quick clothing changes and repair any damaged clothes. They also have the ability to regenerate lost limbs, though this shortens their lifespan due to rapid cell growth.

She can enter Pandora Mode;

Pandora Mode
A powered-up form performed by higher-ranking Pandoras. In the manga, Pandora Mode takes form of a powered armored suit while in the anime, the Pandora have physical changes (silvery-white hair, yellow eyes, and blue rings around their wrists and ankles). Despite the differences, in both versions, Pandoras in Pandora Mode gain increased strength and power as well as having the ability to move in the opponents' freezing grid without aid from a Limiter. The Pandora's Volt Weapon also gains an upgrade while in this state, turning it into a Nova Weapon. Also, it has been stated that Pandoras are forbidden to use Pandora Mode other than in actual combat with a Nova. Despite it's advantages, the downside of Pandora Mode is that Pandoras can only maintain it for three minutes and once the time limit is over, the Pandora will return to her normal form but in a severely weakened state, which leaves her vulnerable to attacks. Satellizer is known to go above the limit and has breached the five minute mark.

Some of the key abilities she can perform are Accel Turn; which increases her already incredible speed depending on the type she uses. There’s Double Accel, Triple Accel and Quad Accel, increasing her speed by 200, 300, and 400% accordingly.

Another key ability is Tempest Turn which allows her to create duplicates of herself for a period of time and attack in unison, Satellizer’s limit to the Tempest Turn is four copies even if there are Pandoras who can make ten copies.

Items/Pets Characters Will Arrive With:
Just a set of clothing, maybe her knitting kit?

Don't know if this is extensive enough to warrant an AU, but ever since Midnight Bliss was used on him, he decided to adopt the 'image' of his female form to further his career as the 'two' top rockers in his genre. He can switch between Zabel Zarock or Midnight Bliss (he adopted the name of the spell as his stage name) just as he normally would when he's going to put on a concert.

He's still really himself as it's just a shapeshift he's able to perform.

Importing Game CR (Y/N and Which Game): N
If OC, a brief summary of their history and personality:
If fan-made AU, what has changed in your character's history? What changes has the AU made to your character's personality? These changes, both to the canon and to the character's personality, must be significant enough to qualify as needing an AU.

Character Special Abilities (can be a link to Wiki):
D-Caf can melt into space worms. I'm not kidding. These space worms are hungry and like to eat human flesh, so he tries not to let them out often. When he 'goes worm' he loses his sense of self and cannot control the worms, and as such is entirely victim to their appetite.

They can eat and digest a living human in a matter of seconds. If they do so, D-Caf takes on the benefit of the nutrients they devour, and will feel full. However, should they attack a dead body, they restore that dead body back to perfect health and life.

...Don't ask how that works, it's Remnants. It doesn't make a lick of sense.

It is suggested that the worms live in D-Caf's bone marrow. He will experience times when he feels an urge to let the worms out, but mostly he just feels them crawling around in there. Ewwwwww.

Items/Pets Characters Will Arrive With: clothes, Rider boomerang, can I have him get a Rider hoverboard just so he can be good at something and have something around for people to break?

Character Journal: ladiesknight
Canon Point Character is Taken From: End of the Falenan civil war, after Gizel's defeat
Importing Game CR (Y/N and Which Game): N
If OC, a brief summary of their history and personality: N/A
If fan-made AU, what has changed in your character's history? What changes has the AU made to your character's personality? These changes, both to the canon and to the character's personality, must be significant enough to qualify as needing an AU. N/A

Character Special Abilities (can be a link to Wiki): Kyle is basically a mage/knight, with decent physical strength (though not as strong as physical powerhouses like Georg) and excellent magical abilities (though not as talented as dedicated magic users like Zerase). All in all, he's one of the best units in the game for his versatility, as he's capable at both melee combat and spellcasting. He should be easily capable of taking on multiple ordinary human soldiers at once.

Kyle has three magical runes embedded in various parts of his body, and has a limited number of spells he can cast before requiring rest to replenish his spell count, as follows:

Level 1: 9 spells
Level 2: 6 spells
Level 3: 4 spells
Level 4: 2 spells

He can use any rune he wishes to cast these spells, but the total number of spells he has left for any one level is pooled across runes. For example, he can cast Mother Ocean (Level 4) and Thunder Storm (Level 4) in a single battle, but will then have to rest or sleep for several hours before being able to cast any additional Level 4 spells. However, he will still have access to any Level 1, 2, and 3 spells he hasn't yet used up.

He has the following runes equipped. The Sunbeam Rune does not come with any spells, only a constantly-active regenerative effect.

Flowing Rune (right hand)
Level 1-Breath of Ice (100+ Damage to all Foes)
Level 2-Kindness Rain (Restores 300Hp to all Allies)
Level 3-Silent Lake (Blocks Ally/Foe magic for 5 turns)
Level 4-Mother Ocean (Restores one ally to perfect health)

Thunder Rune (left hand)
Level 1-Berserk Blow (300+ Damage to one enemy)
Level 2-Soaring Bolt (900+ Damage divided among Foes)
Level 3-Furious Blow (1000+ Damage to column of enemies)
Level 4-Thunder Storm (1100 damage to all enemies)

Sunbeam (forehead)
Restores 1 HP every 3 steps or 15 HP per turn in combat. So basically if he walks uninterrupted for a mile, he should be healed.

Kyle is also a capable infantry unit leader with experience in ship-based warfare.

Items/Pets Characters Will Arrive With: Kyle has his official Queen's Knight armor (non-magical, pictured here) and a katana.
