.o1 There is a limit to two characters per person.

.o2 Please remember that this roleplay is based in modern-day Tokyo, Japan.

.o3 If you're having trouble deciding on a character, here's a list of needed/requested characters. There's also a reservations post here.

.o4 Make sure you read both the faq and rules before applying!

~~~

Name: {real, alias, or nickname}
LJ Username: (a real journal is required here. a code is provided for you.)
Age: {your age}
AIM Screename: {required}
Past RP Experience: {you can use any example here. a snip from past logs or links to other communities you've been in. anything that shows us you've roleplayed before.

Character's Name:
Character's Age:
Character's Model: {whom you wish to portray your character; also known as your PB. please supply name and a sample image}
Year in School: {freshman, sophomore, junior, senior. if character is not in college, what are they doing that keeps them in the surrounding area?}
Major / Minor: {if applicable; if your character hasn't decided, say so} [see below]*
Clubs / Activities / Job?: [see below]*

Background History: {minimum 300 words - nothing is truly 'canon' in an alternate universe setting such as this. so feel free to go wild and use your imagination to it's fullest capability! creativity is very important here. if you plan on playing a character that depends on another for some aspects of plot [ex: Hyuuga / Zabuza-Haku / Orochimaru-Kabuto / Madara-Tobi-Izuna] do not write them in unless the character exists already in the community and you have planned something out with them. with that in mind, keep mentioning of another character in your application down to a minimum. your application is all about your numero uno character and that is the one we want to see the most out of.}

Personality/Likes & Dislikes: {minimum 300 words - there's bound to be quite a bit about your character that makes them a special snowflake. you have your chance to tell us about it right here. what are their talents or aspirations? details and more details, please. what makes them who they are and why? describe their personality to a tee. paint a picture with your summary and assume that you are the only one who knows everything about this character.}

Writing Sample: {minimum 300 words each - our requirement is for you to write both a first and third person sample in order to show your grasp on the character in the two formats that dominate the community. prompts are optional as they are only there to help aid you with the writing examples. feel free to be as imaginative as possible.}

Prompts:
- Interview
- Out past curfew
- This one time at ___ camp...
- First day of class / work / etc,.

First Person

Third Person

Other Notes:
Any Questions:

"You can keep the exam," he drawled, not bothering to identify the first to finish. Once the paper was collected, Shikamaru placed it to the side, leaning back on his chair and watching the class.

Two girls from the corner, having already finished their exam before the first to finish, hastily followed, gathering up their belongings like a storm and making much more ruckus than necessary. Seven others looked up at those leaving and started flipping through the exam much faster than their initial pace. Four had dozed off earlier, and was woken up with a quiet jolt, looking more frazzled than ever before. The rest, he didn't even bother observing because that would have taken too much effort on his part.

Predictable.

Every exam, he observed the students, and found that he was never really that far off from predicting the nature of students around him. He found that he was never really wrong about answering a question on the exam, or even the question of a fellow student. But the most annoying thing about it all was that despite all this, he could never figure out the answer to his own question.

It wasn't like he was asking for much.

When there was only a couple of students left in the class, Shikamaru leaned back on his chair and put his feet on the desk in front of him, crossing his arms. "What a pain in the ass."

Other Notes: + He can hustle the shit out of people in Poker, and if he needs the money, will resort to it. He probably cheats 98% of the time. 8);;;
+ Smokes pot, though not necessarily an addict.
+ When he feels the need to, he smoke. Cigarettes. But pot too LMFAO.
+ Has a weird sleeping schedule, but always takes naps to make up for it. This is always mistaken as, 'You slept 9 hours and you're taking a nap, too?' but it's really not.
+ Very fast with his hands. BUT WILL NEVER PICK YOUR POCKETS. :D;;
+ We're going to have to, for the sake of convenience and WTF SENSE OF STYLE, off the pineapple head. But he'll wear his hair in a ponytail from time to time mmkay. :(
Any Questions: ... I couldn't hit 300 on the first person writing sample. I tried, though. :(

300 IS a pretty high number to hit. But I like it because then everyone kind of tries to reach it. That way you get an entry that isn't really that long but still loaded with awesome, crunchy bits.

What I'm trying to say here is...

Welcome! Be sure to do the following with your character journal:

o1. Join both the IC ([info]last_stretch) and the OOC ([info]reach_for_ooc) communities as well as [info]sticky_noto and add [info]ls_mod as a friend here. Only then will you be able to comment to the friend add/remove entry. Here, you will also add all the players to your IC journal.

o2. Once you are friended, you'll be able to view certain friends-locked entries. Next, you will go here and fill out the player contact information. When we dot all the "i's" and cross the "t's," we will promptly add you to the official taken characters list.

o3. Please also take the time to add a phone post to your character journal. The phone posts are used for characters to communicate outside of the company journals. Once done, please comment to this post with your information.

o4. And finally, please disable the custom comment pages on your character journal. Information on how to do and and why we do it can be found here. Also there is how to work out layouts on Scribbld, if you're new to this. ♥

And you're done! You are also free to write an introductory post in the OOC community, and write up a character info post in your journal!
