As a reminder, all applications will be processed over the weekend!
We strongly encourage you to submit your application before the weekend as requests for revisions, if necessary, will be made during the week. This way, should we ask for a revision, you will not have to wait until the following week for the final verdict.

Before apping, please check the taken lists #, A-L & M-Z, reserves or even drops in case for some reason we're not finished updating by the time you come around!

Links to your character journal are fine!


OOC Information
Name/Alias: (Whoever you are!)
Age: (Must be 15 or over)
E-Mail//MSN//AIM: (So that the mods and other muns can contact you. Must supply us with at least one)
Personal LJ: (Not absolutely required)
How did you hear about Badfic?

IC Information
Character Name: (full name please and any aliases)
Name that appears on name plaque: (If your character hides their identity or prefers to be known as a different name, this is where to do that. This will be the in character plaque on your door.)
Character Journal:
Canon:
Point in Canon: (where in the story are you taking them from?)
Age: (How old are they at this point in canon)
Birthday: (Feel free to head-canon this one up. The Author just likes throwing birthday parties)

Appearance: (Please give us a few sentences describing your character's appearance. A picture will be accepted, provided that any details--scars, tattoos, etc that cannot be seen in the image are mentioned.)

Abilities: (Some detail here would be nice, anything they can do that's out of the ordinary from world-altering magic to skill with mechanics)

Personality: (In this section, please consider the following questions. What is your character's personality like? How do they react to people? What is their general attitude regarding the world and the way they go about living their life? What are their motivations, nervous ticks, buttons? These are all details we would like to read about. This section is also one of the most important ones that we consider when reviewing your application.)

Strengths: (What are your character's strengths? If this has been fully described in the personality section, please feel free to use bullet points rather than prose.)

Weaknesses: (What are your character's flaws and weaknesses? Again, if this has been fully described in the personality section, please feel free to use bullet points rather than prose.)

History: (Please write out a canon history for your character - what their background is like and what in their past has affected them. We do accept links, particularly for long canons, although if there's not much information in the links we may ask for something written.)

First Person Sample: (At least 6 sentences. Here we would like to see how you would represent your character in action. We want to hear their voice. As an idea, what would your character post to the network upon waking up at the Manor?)

Third Person Sample: (At least 200 words that will give us a good idea of how your character generally thinks and behaves in third person, log format script.)

Links: (Please provide any other links that you feel will help us understand your character. Youtube links, wiki articles, D_M threads, etc.)

Notes: (Anything and everything you think you need to or want to say about your character goes here! For instance, if you have head-canon that will affect the way your character is played, please include that here.)

Bonus: Why did you choose to app this character? This is a totally optional, fun little question that you can answer in as many (or few) words as you'd like!

Please note that we take the word minimums seriously. Failure to meet the required minimum will result in a request for a revision, if not a rejection. Additionally, submitting an application that has not been proof read is grounds for rejection. If your app has been rejected, you are welcome to try reapplying for the same character the next cycle.

Reserves are open!

Applications are open!!
Before reserving, please check the taken lists # A-L, M-Z or even drops in case for some reason we're not finished updating by the time you come around!

To reserve a character, please copy and paste the form inside the textbox into a comment, filling in the appropriate information. You do not need to reserve a character in order to app them.

Effective 3/9/11, All reserves will last for one week, with a possible one week extension. An extension will not be granted if there is someone else who wishes to app the same character. Challenges for reserves will be accepted on a case-by-case basis, and only after the first week is up. Any player that wishes to request an extension must either leave a comment under their original reserve or PM the mods.
