luceti | Applications

Status: CLOSED

A SPECIAL NOTE, PLEASE READ: Due to Luceti entering the end of its plot, officially (DETAILS HERE), applications are open all the time. If we receive a sudden inexplicable spike in apps this might change, but that is unexpected.

Previously played characters can return for the endgame using the basic application at the bottom of the post. We will allow canon-updates of characters using the same application, just label the app appropriately.

PLEASE READ THE RULES BEFORE APPLYING! Especially the last few, as they establish what characters can or cannot be accepted.

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.

Canon Point: (This is your character’s most recent moment in canon before they arrive in Luceti. Please try to be as specific as possible, providing what chapter, episode, or issue they’re from when possible.) 
Canon Point Explanation: (Please also provide a brief explanation of why you have selected this canon point. It needn’t be a massive justification; we consider this a way for you to ‘show your work’ and show us the careful thought you’ve put into the application. A simple ‘this is the end/most recent point available for my character’s storyline’, for example, would suffice.) 
History: (If you prefer, you may link to an outside source, such as Wikipedia, a pre-existing written biography, or an official site.)

Personality: (Please consider here things such as habits, likes and dislikes, thought patterns, experiences and so on. This section should be fairly detailed!)

Strengths (Provide canon examples and include special powers/abilities as necessary. You may combine sections as needed, but remember to always be thorough.)

Anything else?: (This section is *not* mandatory; however, if there is anything left you would like note that has not been covered in the rest of the application, you may do so here. This is a good place to touch base with us on any specialized items your character may show up with, any pets they may receive early on, or anything else you would like to run by us.)

SAMPLES (ALL SAMPLES MUST BE SET IN THE LUCETIVERSE)

First Person: (Must be ten *complete* sentences or longer. This does *not* include action text, though you may include action as well. Only the spoken dialogue will be counted. If you can, please refrain from giving us a generic arrival post. They make it difficult to judge voice and are one of the most frequent reasons revisions are requested.

Alternatively, we encourage you to instead link to a recent thread or a post from the Training Wings community/Test Drive Meme.

If you feel that a first person sample is daunting because the character is not talkative, you may request an IC Q&A. )

Third Person: (300 words minimum. Remember to write using proper grammar, verb tenses, and paragraphs.)

Confused? HERE is a quick explanation of how to fill out our fandom applications.

World History: (Describe the world where they live. If it’s like our world, describe what’s different, if anything. If they’re from a point in our history, be sure to note when and where. This is also a good opportunity to explore the social pressures, expectations, and assumptions of their setting. For more fantastical worlds, this is where you do your world building.)

Personal History: (Please be thorough! What shaped them into what they are today? What inspired them? Motivated them? What was their childhood like? Or their first love? Obviously, not everyone has the same personal history so use this as an opportunity to tell us about your character’s unique life experience.)

Special Powers/Abilities: (Although the above sections will have touched upon any powers or abilities your character possesses, consider this the place to provide us with an inventory. If a power or an ability does not appear on this app, it will not be available to the character in Luceti without first discussing it with a mod. If your character has no powers or abilities, put N/A.)

Third Person: (300 words minimum. Remember to write using proper grammar, verb tenses, and paragraphs.)

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) or Kath (so moe you died) on AIM, or email them at their respective email addresses found in the

luceti profile page or here at the Resource/Link Directory.

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!

RETURNING CHARACTER APPLICATIONS:

As noted above, if you are either:
a) a previous/current player bringing back a character played here before
b) a current player with a current character wanting to canon-update

Here is the short-form application you can use.

RULES FOR RETURNING CHARACTERS:

1) The character must have been played in Luceti BY YOU at some time in the past.
2) The character must not currently be played by anyone else.
3) The application must be accepted by a mod as per usual before the character can ICly return to the game.

If you have questions about this app (it's very much a beta right now, this is the first time we've done this!) please use the contact methods above.

Third Person:
Duck had been here for a few days by now. What was the most surprising about even coming here for her was the fact that she still had the pendent. She didn’t expect to find it in a store display of all places. As far as she knew, the pendent was gone. So why was it in this mysterious place that people had told her about? Luceti…. How exactly did she even get here? It wasn’t likely that she would ever get a clear answer for that. It seemed like no one really knew that answer.

All she could do was explore this place that she was stuck in. She really couldn’t say that she disliked the idea of being human again. It made it easier to talk and figure out what’s going on when she was a girl. No… If Fakir was here, what would she tell him? They promised each other that they would be their true selves. That meant that Duck would live her life as a duck (as her life should have been in the first place). Was she going back on her promise with him by coming back as a girl?

“Fakir…. I wonder what you’re doing right now…,” she thought out loud.

She didn’t know how or when she’d arrived at an empty clearing in the forest, but there was no one around. She couldn’t help but to wonder… Clearly she could turn back into a duck… She’d turned into a duck a few times already and clearly she could come back as a girl. Was it possible for her to turn back into Princess Tutu, too?

She was tempted to try it, but then she had another thought. She hadn’t actually danced ever since that time she was trying to encourage Mytho to continue on. She knew how terrible her dancing was as a girl, but she had to know. She messed up a few times, but that was to be expected. It had been so long…. It felt… wonderful. She never realized how much she’d missed dancing, even if it was fairly spotty.

“That was wonderful,” she heard a voice speak out.

Upon hearing the voice, she started to lose her balance. She hadn’t realized that people would be around. That shouldn’t have been so surprising for her, considering it was normal back at home during class. She turned around to see who had spoken to her.

“Q-quack!” she blurted, covering her mouth right after.

Of all of the things she could have said… she had to quack. She attempted to run off, only making it to the bushes when she turned back into a duck. Well… It was time to find some water source… She grabbed her clothing and made a sack with it like she used to do.

You're accepted, have some delicious copypasta.
