Applications
PLEASE USE THE NEW APPLICATION POST!
Please be aware that apps are only open from the 1st (12:00 AM Eastern Standard Time) to the 7th (11:59 PM Eastern Standard Time) of any given month. This means that as of 12:01 AM, the 1st, apps are open and that as of 11:59 PM the 7th, they are closed. If you post an application after that time, it will be deleted and ignored. Please pay attention to the application times and the status at the top of this page!
PLEASE READ THE RULES BEFORE APPLYING! Especially the last few, as they establish what characters can or cannot be accepted.
If you want to canon-update your character, you must re-apply for said character with the relevant changes (history, personality, strengths and weaknesses, etc). For re-apps and canon updates, samples must be rewritten; we do not accept recycled samples.
The old application posts can be found on Livejournal, using the Applications tag.
Here's the application. Copy and paste the text box info into a comment and fill it out. You must apply with the following format, otherwise your application will not be accepted.
FANDOM CHARACTERS
Confused? HERE is a quick explanation of how to fill out our fandom applications.
ORIGINAL CHARACTERS
Confused? HERE is a quick explanation of how to fill out our OC applications.
You may link to threads on the
trainingwings community for your first person samples, as long as the thread in question is no older than three months. The thread or post must still have at least ten lines of dialog from your character to be considered. HERE is a word-counting tool to check your 3rd person samples.
If a mod does not accept your app right away, please be patient. We all have our own personal and busy lives to attend to, and there might be a period of time when it might take us days to get to the applications. There is also the possibility that we do not know the canon you are applying for, and we need time to study it. So please be patient and we will work as fast as we can to get you an answer. If it has been a week with no word, please feel free to message Akai (guynophobic), Masamune (masamune3x), or Emily (spark memories) on AIM, or email them at their respective email addresses found in the
luceti profile page.Note: Applications are not always processed in the order they are received, due to the way they are divvied up between the moderators. If your application has been skipped, do not fret. Another mod will be getting to it soon enough. Additionally, you now have ONE WEEK to complete revision requests and Q&A's. You will be reminded of this deadline three days before it's up. After that week has passed, your application will no longer be considered for the current round. We apologize, but please be patient with us!
A note for applying here on Dreamwidth: Due to the character count limit being higher on DW, it might be tempting to toss the whole thing in one comment and leave it. However, we ask that you split the application up into at least two comments- the first containing your player information and (if you want) basic character info, the rest in another comment (or more, if you wish). This is to avoid having entire applications spanning the page and making it huge.
Splitting them up will make it easier for mods to process the applications. Thank you!

Current Characters at Luceti: N/A
Character
Name: Aqua
Fandom: Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep
Gender: female
Age: not stated by canon; 18 at the most
Time Period: mid-Neverland, pre-Vanitas fight
Wing Color: pale cyan blue
History: Aqua's page on the Kingdom Hearts wiki! also, here is a handy dandy timeline showing her journey through the worlds in relation to Terra and Ventus'.
Personality: Aqua is a warrior and a good friend, but the two parts of her don't always overlap. For as strong and calm as Aqua is, she is also caring and a bit motherly when not on the battlefield; she's feminine AND tough. Aqua's friendly, but a more quiet and reserved person than someone like Ventus or Sora. She keeps most things to herself, preferring to think and analyze internally. Still, she makes friends easily and cares deeply for them. She's a sentimentalist, very mature and thoughtful, polite, a bit of a romantic, and clearly prefers to err on the side of caution. She often tries to send others away, usually Ven, for their safety. She's a very practical optimist; that's a very good way to describe her.
However, as much as she carries herself within being a warrior, it's surprising at times how much of herself she leaves behind and almost becomes like someone else. Sometimes Aqua the Friend and Aqua the Warrior quarrel internally. The Friend has unwavering belief in herself and her friends, but the Warrior has a strict moral code regarding light and darkness that even her closest friends are judged by. However, the Warrior and Friend are both keen to fix injustice, even for those she'd only just met.
Unfortunately, her strict moral code as the Warrior sometimes interferes with her as a Friend and confuses her. She was too quick to believe the rumors Maleficent told her that Terra was harming people and helping the darkness, despite openly denying even the remotest possibility that Terra could be capable of such a thing to Maleficent and Ventus both. She didn't even ask for more evidence or try to discern the circumstances of what occurred, or talk to Terra about it before expressing her doubts about him to his face. (Terra and Ventus understandably feel betrayed.) She quickly regrets this oddly impulsive action, quietly reflecting on her misstep. She knows better, but her worry and doubt temporarily overcame her. Ventus also comments that becoming a Master has gone to Aqua's head, that she's too obedient to following the orders given by Master Eraqus…despite the fact that both orders are reasonable, understandable, and appeal directly to Aqua's maternal side concerning both of her closest friends.
Though emotionally she functions as a much more sympathetic person while the Friend, like the Master she has been dubbed, her Warrior senses are always on alert and she tends to be sensitive to the auras of good and evil around her, moreso than others. She's smart and sharp, listens carefully and pays close attention to her surroundings in order to make logical deductions and proceed practically. She also works very hard to protect innocent people who might get involved in with darkness. Blessedly, she's also a very humble person. She never boasts about her power or about being a Master when Terra is not…in fact, she doesn't even refer to herself as a Master until the very end of the game, and to an enemy.
Being a caring and maternal sort, Aqua is often the first to comfort someone in distress, and she's typically very good about guessing in what way is best for each individual person. With Terra, she tends to try to pretend that nothing has happened, because that is what he prefers, but Ventus she reminds of their bonds as a trio and the familial love the three have for one another in order to restore his confidence.
Her more feminine side tends to come out regarding only her closest friends, Ventus and Aqua, and in the face of romantic situations. The night before the Mastery Exam, she made matching charms for the three to them to represent the bonds they would always share. She also commented on how romantic it was when Cinderella and Prince Charming found each other, and gets VERY flustered and embarrassed when Zack flirts with her.
Ultimately, Aqua's greatest trait also tends to be her greatest downfall - her selflessness. She never thinks of herself, only for the good of others or the good of a group. Unfortunately, her self-sacrifice usually ends badly for her.
Aqua / RESERVED / part two of two
physical: Aqua is extremely nimble, light and fast on her feet in battle. her ultimate Command Style, Ghost Drive, enables her to teleport all across the battlefield to deliver attacks too fast to be seen or countered.
mental: Aqua is a very strong magic user, able to use offensive, defensive, and support spells. she specializes in elemental spells of the Square mythos; Fire, Blizzard, Thunder, Aero, and so on. due to being a magic user, she has a deep reserve of magic ability and can use many spells before tiring. she also has an almost unshakable willpower.
emotional: her caring, intelligence, maturity, strength and character, and humility all do her credit.
Weaknesses:
physical: Aqua is not terribly strong, relying on her speed and magical ability instead. unfortunately, she's very susceptible to attack; if hit, she takes more damage than anyone else would.
mental: Aqua is almost inflexible in her black and white view of light and dark. it causes conflict within the trio.
emotional: when it comes to her "family" (Ventus, Terra, Master Eraqus), Aqua is easily blinded with emotion and loses some rational thinking and control.
Samples (ALL samples must be set in Luceti-verse.)
First Person:
[she APPEARS in the eye of the with deep blue HAIR the same color as a Caribbean SEA, swaying gently and--- yeah okay animu girl with blue hair got it whatever whatever anyway HI HELLO she smiles warmly at the .]
I want to thank this world for welcoming me. It's very nice to have provided so many supplies and information.
[she frowns a little now] Unfortunately, I don't actually remember...coming here. As nice as people have been, I had something I was doing, so if anyone here has more information, I would appreciate hearing it.
[even though she looks away from the , she keeps talking] If anyone needs help with any...unusual occurrence, I'd be more than happy to assist in any way that I can. I have studied magic extensively, and have combat training as well, so if there's anything I can do to help anyone already here in exchange for information, I'd be more than happy to do so.
Third Person:
She's almost too calm about all this.
It's not that Aqua minds finding herself in a completely new place (she's accustomed to that), and it isn't even that she didn't remember getting there since similarly strange things seemed to be happening a lot recently, or even the fact that she had ended up here alone.
It's waking up to find what little you own, literally the clothes and armor off your back, are gone. She can't even summon her Keyblade and it scares her a little. Funny how a sundress could make one feel completely naked.
The residents had been nice enough, even if their explanations were a little too concise and they ran off a little too quickly. The journal isn't hard to use, and at least it means there are others in similar situations that could possibly explain better, and maybe she could even assist.
Aqua couldn't stop herself from admiring the place, though. It had to be one of the most beautiful worlds she's been to so far; the forest calms her, the bright green and the dappled sunlight filtering through them.
The town is strange and idyllic as well; everyone seems to be in a more or less good mood. The smells from the bakery are especially distracting. She wants to explore more, but not until finding out where she'll be based out of, and maybe more about the culture here and hopefully even a little bit of knowledge about who's in charge. She just wants answers, and then she can find the solution for herself.
For the moment, at the least, she sits down on the grass, folding the dress under her and looking up to admire the sky. As always, Terra and Ven pop into her mind. Where are they now? Are they safe? A bubble of hope hovers in her chest, bright but threatening to burst - there were too many things happening lately that she didn't understand, didn't have the answers to. She doesn't like being in the dark, being stuck without the ability to help--
Aqua suddenly looks down at her naked arms and shudders. How does a dress manage to make her feel both defenseless and unable to help others?
Request
Thanks!
no subject
It would be easy for me to say "to lose Ven or Terra". Thinking about it...losing them to darkness would be so much worse. I wouldn't know what to do, how to reach them. I would do everything I could think of, I would fight with words and try to talk through it to them, but...darkness comes from within, and if they don't budge within themselves, then...
I don't know what I would do.
2. How do you think you will benefit Luceti?
I would like to help others learn to defend themselves. Since there will be people from many different worlds, I'm sure there must be some who have never fought - or at least, not in ways with which I'm familiar. I would like to help others learn to protect themselves from the darkness, either outside or within themselves. In a situation like this, it's more important than ever for strangers to stick together and cooperate, and it would be crippling if any one of us fell to darkness.
3. What is the difference between bravery and duty?
Duty is something I feel strongly...as a Keyblade wielder, it's my duty to defend the worlds from the perils of darkness. It brings a kind of bravery with it, knowing that you're doing what has to be done because you have the ability... It's still slightly different and separate from bravery, though. Bravery is like Ven, who had to relearn the world and learn to not be afraid, and learn to trust us as his friends. Bravery is doing something you don't have to but is very difficult, and may or may not have rewards on the other end of your efforts. I think Ven is one of the bravest people I know.
4. Name the most important emotion, in your opinion, and explain why you made your choice.
Love. I don't mean romantic, I mean in a general sense - it's the most powerful kind of light there is. My love for Ven and Terra and Master Eraqus as my family carries me through everything. I don't have to be afraid when I'm fighting on my own, because I'm not alone - they're with me, always, and they keep me strong. They push me to be stronger and to be the best me that I can be, and they're there to support me when I feel weak. I feel I can do anything because I have the most wonderful family.
5. What makes you happy?
Helping others, and my family. I've seen many worlds filled with all kinds of people, and there are many troubles for them all. I know that I can't fix all of their problems, but doing what I can and doing it successfully gives me peace, and seeing the friends I make wherever I go be a little more relieved or happy makes me happy in turn.
My family is the best part of my life, and something I have for myself - not as a Keyblade wielder. I can be myself with them, and not just the Master. We laugh and struggle together, we can relax and push each other. They make me feel comfortable and safe, and they accept me as I am. And I, them.
