Okaaay, here we go! We've deciced to accept OC's! The application form will be a little longer, as we will need and want more information, but here it is so you can give it to your girlfriend:
(Freshly out of the oven,haha)
OC Application:Character you're applying for: Country name
Detailed history of the country:This can be any lenght, but will show us your knowledge about your chosen country's history, which is very important for this forum. Please write this part in essay-like paragrapgh style, not year - this happened.
(Bad Example "1809 - Finland became a part of Russia", Good example: "In 1809, even before the war between Sweden and Russia was over, the Finnish people decided to swear the Russian tsar an oath and become the Grand Duchy of Finland under the Russian tsar.")
This will show us you know how certain events are linked and have the ability to look at bigger pictures, not just single fact. It will also give us more examples of your writing skills.
Please also always include the reasons for why a certain event is important and/or relevant. What did it lead to, how did it change your character? We don't know every country's history and checking the importance of every fact that may seem irrelevant would take lots of time.
Personality:Please describe the character's personality and characteristics as detailed as possible.
Character's appearance:Either show us a drawing or describe your character's appearance with words.
Reasons:Please explain the reasons why you want to roleplay this specific nation and why you think it will be useful to us. Think of this as an advertisement for your character.
Sample post:This doesn't have to be long, but we would like an example of how you would portray your character in action. It can be about anything, but a history-related one can become a plus point if we happen to have more than one applicant. Also, be careful not to god-mod in this post, that happens easily.
Do you roleplay anywhere else / Do you have a place where we can see your logs or roleplay history?:Any prior experience and examples that can give us a good picture of how you work. If you don't have any, don't worry, we love to welcome inexperienced RP-ers too and give them a great first experience!
