.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,.

Third person writing sample:

Sasuke’s attacker hits like a hurricane. Not the first time in a dark alley.

“Here we belong…“

-and this Sasuke can tell you in 9.81 m/s^2 of Fuck you, in media res, scrambling to legs that held (won’t hold longer), legs that blemish and bruise and break, catchfall on a wall (don’t rhyme when you’re bleeding), catch the – catch the motion.

It’s not the first time he’s been punched.

“Born to be… to… to… be… “

Free. He’s free of his bones. Weightless.

It’s not the first time he’s heard that knot of words either. His assaulter’s lost mercy. He has lost sense, he’s lost reason, he’s lost the words and the gall and the tune, and he’s high. (It’s in his hair. It’s in his eyes, and they share them, red, swollen eyes, light cradled everywhere on a stained retina. High. So high. Sasuke can tell. Sasuke doesn’t want to.)

And Sasuke’s gagging.

Breath on his shoulder – beer, cheap, it reeks- before winter waits on chills and it’s air. Air that quivers in speckles, air that rubs his wound wrong. He has to wonder (between the third and fifth punch, and they happen, this – this happens) what this man wants.

Young man. Young man, hello. Young man, what do you want?

Young Man, I want to pull the white out of your eye socket. I want to dig my nail in the pulp. I want to see the vines clutter and worm around it.

There is a point after which men are animals, when they crash and ask for candy and amphetamines and steel, when they redeem the steel against someone else’s innards, take their money, and go. Cut the pockets. Cut the watch. Cut the tip of a tongue, if it’s fucking pierced – and they go. (No one stays. It isn’t emo, it’s common sense.)

There is a point when strangers accost strangers, pin them on bleak old club doors (and Sasuke knows, knows he shouldn’t be there, knows he’s been told so, once, twice, forever, he knows), and then ask no further questions. There is a point (punch six, to be precise), when they hope the target grows weak and wary and a little bit cold, because it’s freezing and wet - We should be sleeping now. Hibernating. We’ve ruined our – our metabolic cycle - and no one should be out. Alive. Here. Tokyo. It’s not for human beings. It’s for men like the Young Man, it’s for worms.

As a species, they have a point where they prey on strangers, beat them to a pulp, take their money, and get high. It’s not personal. It’s a limit. It’s a barrier. It’s convenient.

Sasuke supposes they have reached that point.

(He does gag this time.)
