~~~

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}

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,.

temari. 2

Personality/Likes & Dislikes:

Everyone has a tiny aggressive spark within them. Temari's spark is more like a forest fire. She keeps it well tucked away where it's important though, at work, school, around the right people. She has an overall sense of self-control, but that doesn't mean she won't let someone have it when they piss her off. At first sight, she comes off as a sensible (if not sometimes angry) person with a small chip on her shoulder and nice eyes. Beyond that she's a strong, independent, intelligent woman who knows how to get her way and will. The blonde stereotype? Ha. Even so much as mention it and you might as well get comfortable with the idea of having your teeth permanently imbedded in the back of your throat. Conversely, Temari has a strong set of morals. She will always help someone who really, really needs it. She's determined to make something truly good out of herself, to be the best, to excel at every obstacle thrown in her way, and to take care of those no one else will. It might have been being the only girl out of a family of men, but Temari has a firmly hidden maternal instinct. She may not have let it out directly back then, but she does project it onto young people she think may need it the most. But don't think you will ever get any sort of "feelings talk" out of her. Temari doesn't do that. She was raised in a family where feelings were something you kept damn well to yourself thank you very much, and she doesn't really "open up" as most girls are so wont to do. Then again, she really isn't like most girls. Temari likes to whale on punching bags until they rip apart, she likes to challenge herself to do better and always does. And, despite her looks, she is not an inherently sexual person. Sure, she enjoys it when the opportunity comes around, but lust, like feelings, is again something you need to keep to yourself.

First person writing sample:

Are you there, good luck? It's me, Temari. You're ignoring me again. I thought I told you not to do that.

Well thanks a lot, because now I have to buy all new textbooks and replace some kid's stupid twenty-dollar bookbag or get a lawsuit on my ass.

And it was so avoidable. I was just walking down the steps, minding my own business, when this stupid pre-law student starts whistling and laughing to his friends while I'm walking by.

Of course I couldn't just let him get away with it or anything, so I asked him what the hell he thought he was looking at.

Just the most beautiful woman in the world, he said.

I just rolled my eyes and kept walking because, of course, that's just the kind of calm and peaceful person I am. But the moron won't just let it be, and he starts following me with all his buddies trailing along and asking me questions like what's my major and where I was "shacking up" for the night. I tried to ignore him, really I did. Even when he fed me a cheesy line about my eyes, I still didn't hit him. That's how hard I was trying. But then the fucker grabbed my ass. Just freaking went to town and laughed about it with his little future-devil friends.

So is it really my fault what happened?

I grabbed his arm and twisted it (that sure got him all worked up) until I was all the way around and used it to force him down onto the grass (and a small section of the stone partition), ripped open his bag and emptied the contents all over his back. While that did make me feel a whole lot better, it did make me temporarily forget that this kid was a future lawyer. Which meant that there was a sixty-percent chance that one of his parents was a lawyer. Which turned out to be true. And his mother threatened to sue me silly for assault and battery if I didn't replace all the stuff that I damaged. All because you had to make the little fuck exist in the first place.

Thanks, fortune. Kindly bite me in the future.

b>Third person writing sample:

She thought bringing a bed from home had been a great idea. The provided mattresses were crap after all. So bringing her own would solve her problems. Right? Wrong.

Her bed shrieked and protested under her weight every time she moved a muscle. It may have been its reaction to the new setting of her dorm room or the long trip from her house to the college, but the frame was permanently angry at her for reasons she couldn't quite understand. She tried greasing it, oiling the joints, and even taking off her trundle bed in order to make the noises stop. But they continued to invade her sleep and dreams; even the other night she dreamt she was sitting at the table with her brothers and they were all making squeaking sounds instead of words to communicate with each other.

The weirdest thing was that she understood it all.

There seemed to be no cure for the crackling creaking monstrosity. Time and again, her friends told her to just throw the thing away and get a new one, already. She kept insisting that she could fix it. No stupid bed frame could outsmart her. She would fix it whether it took her her entire life.

No one ever guessed the real reason was that she still wanted her tiny piece of home. She still wanted her brother sitting on her bed and talking to her about school. She still wanted being tucked in before she went to bed. She wanted to keep the few good memories of her family that she could, and she wanted them forever.

"Jeez Temari," her training partner from the wrestling team berated her, "are you still working on this stupid bed? Throw it out already."

"I will," Temari grumbled as she rolled herself out from under the bed and allowed her partner to help her up, "eventually."

Other Notes:

Any Questions: Can I has Temari pls?

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

o1. Join both the IC (

last_stretch) and the OOC (

reach_for_ooc) communities as well as

sticky_noto and add

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!
