CHARACTER APPLICATIONS

Application periods are open all month, every month. Warden apps are currently closed.

Please read all rules and guidelines before submitting an application. Be sure to check the Taken Characters list and the Retired Characters list before posting an application here.

NOTES:
  1. After applying for a character, we ask that players allow 30 days before bringing their next character into the game. In some cases (warden or cast caps, upcoming major game events) players may approach the mod team and clear submitting an application a few days early, though it will not be approved before the 30 day mark.

  2. If you are applying into an existing cast, please be aware that we may speak to players of characters close to (any version of) the character, and will speak to the players of canonmates of the character for which you are applying. We reserve the right to reject an application if it would render a current character or characters unplayable in the opinion of their player(s). If your app is rejected for this reason, we ask that you respect the decision.

  3. Both samples may be taken from threads on the Test Drive Meme, as long as they are recent and match your application with respect to canonpoint and warden/inmate status. The TDM goes up once per month and is always marked on the Event Calendar. If you would prefer to write yours out and would like some inspiration, check out the event info/plotting post tags (flood, port, breach, player plots) on the OOC community; you're welcome to write a sample based on your character's reaction after one of these events!

  4. Canons (or canonpoints, in the case of ongoing series) must have been out for at least 30 days before they can be applied for.

  5. If you're reapping a character that you previously dropped and you plan to have them retain their memories of their previous stint onboard, please include at least a few sentences discussing how their previous stay affected them, and noting any relevant changes to their personality, worldview, and motivations. The more significant the changes, the more detail we'd like.

HIATUS POST


If you need to hiatus the game for one week or more, please fill out the form and drop a comment here. For activity purposes, hiatuses must include one week in a single month to allow exemption from that month's activity check. Please visit the FAQ for details. Hiatuses remain posted until the end of the month for Activity Check purposes, and a hiatus posted to the OOC community isn't sufficient. It must be posted here prior to the monthly Activity Check. A friend can post your hiatus for you.

Although you may post hiatus dates across multiple months here as a public record of your availability for other players, you may not use a hiatus for AC two months in a row, unless there are extenuating circumstances. When players feel they need an extended break from the game we are generally happy to accept re-applications when they feel they are ready to continue playing. If you feel you'll need more than a month-long hiatus and don't want to drop, however, please contact the mods and we can work with you to make arrangements.

CABINS/ACCOMMODATIONS


After you have been accepted, please check here for available rooms. No two people will be rooming together! For more information on what your character's rooms will look like, check the FAQ.

On either end of each floor, one empty cabin door has been converted into a rather conspicuous metallic door. They're labelled in large, clear, legible writing:

LYFE BOAT
Door will unlock in case of emergency.
(max pas. 9, 3500 lbs.)


There is no obvious door-opening mechanism.

There are also two Common Areas on each Level, at the bow and stern, respectively. Empty cabins are a mixture of bare, featureless rooms, and sparsely generic motel suites. Please take a look at the setting for more information on the layout and appearance of the Barge.

FRIEND ADD/REMOVE


Once you're accepted, friend all the members using the Admin Console. To be added to the list, please respond to this post with: friend add character lj name

FRIEND ADD
      DECEMBER ADDS




For your convenience, below are characters who have dropped in the last few months who you may need to remove. If you drop a character, please GO TO THE DROP POST, and we'll take care of it. You can respond to this list with: friend remove character lj name, as well, if you'd like.

WARDEN/INMATE PAIRINGS


Post here if you are in need of either an Inmate or a Warden!

All pairings will occur on the 15th and 30th of each month, with temporary pairings going up on the 15th. By default, characters will only be eligible for a temporary pairing after their first full month in-game, though you may request an earlier pairing date if you wish. If you have preferences, speak to the player in question that you want to be paired with before posting a full request. Both players must approve of a pairing before we'll finalize it (a good way to do this is have one put "Attn: Mods" in the comment subject and list the pairing with full names and desired pairing date in the comment body, and then have the other person respond to it with "confirming"). Please fill out the pairing form here so we have your character's full name and information.

RETIRED CHARACTERS


Please note that, while not currently taken, the following characters have been through the game and have either graduated (for inmates) or made their deal with the Admiral and moved on (for wardens). Out of courtesy to their players and the work and development they've put into their characters, we consider their characters to be retired. Although their status (W, I, or I/W) is noted next to their retirement, please note that a retired warden is not automatically appable as a inmate, or vice versa.

If you are interested in applying for a retired character, please reach out to the mods in advance so we can let you know whether the character is eligible to be un-retired. While making our decision, we'll take into consideration how long it's been since the character was retired, and whether any current characters were around to remember or have CR with the retired character. We will be much more likely to accept an app for a character that was retired seven years ago than one for a character that was retired two years ago. If the previous player is accessible, we will respect their wishes, especially if they are still in the game. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask!

Please check the Taken Character list as well as this one before applying for a character. We also encourage you to fill out the Potential Application Form if you wish to apply for one of these characters.
