Application
Please read the the FAQ and Rules section before going through with an application!
To join the game, you must first fill out an application for your character, filling out all the following segments of the app. Suggestions are included in the sections to help jog ideas about what to specify under each heading. Generally speaking, we want to get a good feel for your character - where they are from, who they are, and how their experiences have shaped them as a character! These sections should also detail how exactly they fit into the unique world of Thedas, and how the political and cultural climates in which they grew up in have shaped them. Before you can start playing your character, your application needs to be approved by a mod. Also while this RP is set on the Dragon Age games, it is a writing game, not a video game - your character doesn’t have to have a specific class. They could be a farrier, or a falconer, as long as it makes sense within the world.
If you wish your character to have something which you think might be slightly out of the ordinary (such as spirit possession, or a high ranking title such as a knight commander, grand enchanter, or something similar) these cannot initially be granted. After seeing a guaranteed commitment to the RP these abilities/titles may be granted.
If an application seems a little too light on information, and/or not up to scratch, the mods may ask you to revise the application. There is no specified date for a revision needing to be completed, so no time pressure, and mods may offer some con crit, such as ‘the personality section is great, but it’s a little unclear through the history section,’ as an example. The application may be reviewed up to 3 times, after which there can be no more attempts. This is to ensure everyone is trying their best with character creation, and there is a set standard.
If you would like some examples of completed applications, here are links to mods examples: (links to be put here upon completion)
Full name (+titles, if any):
Age:
Gender:
Race: (Qunari Kossith/Vashoth, dwarf, elf, human):
Nationality: (Ferelden, Antivan, Orlesian, etc etc)
Class/Occupation:
Background:
(optional suggestions: if they have a family, what is family life like? what important events occured to put them in the position they find themselves now? for altered protagonist characters, how does their history differ from the in-game story?)
Personality:
(optional suggestions: what are five prominent personality traits of theirs? what are their strengths or redeeming features? what are their flaws or weaknesses? what makes them happiest, and what makes them saddest? what do they think of different races, different social classes, different classes? what are some values they hold dear, what are some biases they have? silly option: list five tv tropes associated with them)
Appearance (description, image, or both!):
Writing sample (A third person (prose) sample that should contain at least ten sentences and feature some dialogue.):
IC
This is the permissions list for IC (in-character), activity.
Answer the following questions with "yes" or "no", as well as additional information if desired. With IC permissions, it's a good idea to elaborate on what other players can expect from your character if they choose to do any of the following:
Hugging this character:
Kissing this character:
Flirting with this character:
Fighting with this character:
Injuring this character (include limits and severity):
Killing this character:
Using telepathy/mind reading abilities on this character:
Offensive subjects (things you don’t wish to RP/come across):
