Applications (Ver. 3)

[thewakemods]

** APPLICATIONS ARE CLOSED.**


Update: We are now allowing an option for those who have been here before that wish to return for endgame, instead of filling the normal apps, instead you can just fill a new form below.

Old Characters
Name: Character name and journal: Ascension rank they were previously: Were they a Wakened, Angelii, or Ashura? When they were in game/notes: (Can put a link to any old activity, their Wake Wiki page, or summarize.)

Comments are no longer screened. Please let us know if you'd like us to screen your application by writing 'Please Screen' in the Subject Line. (ie: Character Name | Series Name | Please Screen) Feel free to post as many comments as necessary or provide a link to your journal post.

Fandom Character Applications:
<b><u>Personal Information</b></u> <b>Name</b>: <b>Age</b>: <b>Personal Journal</b>: <b>Email / Plurk / Discord / Other</b>: <b>Current Character(s):</b> (List the characters you currently play in the Wake, if applicable!) <b><u>Character Information</b></u> <b>Character Name</b>: <b>Fandom</b>: <b>Character History</b>: You have two options for the history requirement: 1) Write the full history of your character out (especially if your canon is obscure). or 2) Link to a detailed wikia page for your character and provide your own bullet point summary of your character’s history. <b>Character Personality</b>: Please be <i>as detailed as possible</i> so that we have a good picture of the character. What makes this character tick? What are their strengths and weaknesses? Minimum three paragraphs. <b>Powers and Abilities</b>: 'nuff said. <b><u>Samples</u></b> TDM posts (unless it's for Network), links, and examples for posts from other communities are not accepted. <b>Network</b>: Your network sample entry should be made as if your character were posting to a public network, such as Dreamwidth. <u>It does <i>not</i> have to be their first post (ie, "OMG WHERE AM I?!")</u>, but it <i>does</i> have to show that the character is perfectly aware of the fact that this is something that other people are likely to see. Please avoid excessive use of descriptions in [action tags] here, as one would get in video posts - we're looking for your character's voice, the one they use for talking to others. Save the internal monologues for the third person sample. If you use TDM for your network sample it needs to meet the following requirements: * Taken from the Test Drive Meme for The Wake and not any other game * Contains at least 12 comments from the character being applied for * Contains enough material for us to see how the character is like * Has to reflect their first person voice <b>Third Person</b>: 300 word minimum. This is the place to show your character's inner thoughts within the setting. Give us a nice third person narrative of your character doing something, plus how they feel about it. This doesn't have to be blatant "<i>this is what my character is thinking, designated by italics!</i>" but should rather show your character's self via their actions and interactions with their environment.

Original Character Applications - we ask that you be AS DETAILED AS POSSIBLE.

What would you do for peace?

[thewakemods]

Unfortunately we will have to reject this again. It is clearly been rushed rather than having any time to polish and improve it since the previous two attempts.

The personality section is missing the additional information we originally asked for. The HTML in your app is also wonky.

Your third person sample is in a network/action spam style, so it doesn't count. Third person samples need to be in prose. It's also way below the minimum word count (300 words).

Because this is a third attempt, we cannot allow you to try applying for this character again until April 3rd. We strongly suggest you ask others to help you write the application and proof-read before you submit it.

Please let us know if you have any questions. Thank you for your understanding.

Hello, and thank you for your interest in The Wake! Before we consider your application for approval, we'll need a minor revision.

We would like to see the personality section expanded a little more.

How does she respond to others' emotions? Does she have her own ambitions, her own hobbies outside of evil? Does her evil have its limits, even? What sort of people would she likely befriend?

Please let us know if you have any questions, and we look forward to your revisions.

Hello, and thank you for your interest in The Wake! Before we consider your application for approval, we'll need several revisions.

Personality needs a lot more fleshing out, as it doesn't give a full picture of his character.

Both samples also need more added to them. We cannot really hear his voice from them. Also the third person sample is only 295 words, which is below the minimum requirement.

The powers section needs serious reduction. You don't need to list every single ability he has. Just what is unique to him. It also doesn't need to contain so many links.

Also the HTML you keep using for your apps looks wonky. We suggest you stop using whatever it is you're using. Apps don't need fancy code to pass.

Please let us know if you have any questions, and we look forward to your revisions.

Hello, and thank you for your interest in The Wake! Before we consider your application for approval, we'll need a couple revisions.

We would like to see the history section expanded more. What about the events he was personally involved in, and how did it affect him? What specifically his Ordeal was against the Lone Power, how it changed/affected him personally?

The third person sample is in action spam. It needs to be in prose. Can you provide a different sample?

Please let us know if you have any questions, and we look forward to your revisions.

Hello, and thank you for your interest in The Wake! Before we consider your application for approval, we'll need a couple revisions.

Your network sample is in prose when it needs to be in action spam (the style that makes the network format).

For example: [character action]

character talking


Can you provide a different sample?

Your personality feels more like a part of the history section due it stating more facts, or repeating what's in the history section, rather than actually explaining his personality. Please expand it more.

Please let us know if you have any questions, and we look forward to your revisions.

[thewakemods]

Hello and thank you for your interest in the Wake!

Unfortunately we will not be able to consider this character for application as her application was submitted.

The app is too generalized and it reads more like a resume than giving us a fuller view of what makes this character tick.

The personality section reads more like it's addiitonal information meant for the history section. The personality section is meant to show the character's personality and how it is connected to their history. It should echo the history section rather than being general history.

We also cannot get a clear or full sense of her character. Anger seems to be a big part of her personality but we cannot tell if she have a short fuse or a longer one that boils beneath the surface. She seems capable of bodily harm but why is getting on her bad side a big thing about her? As it is, it feels like she's just a trope example than a real character as she is written in the application. We need to know the character herself and how her past connects with her personality in the present. The hyperfocus on her being a sniper doesn't help either since we do not know how she functions outside of that role and without her gun and when there are many other facets that are mentioned but never touched upon (ie: her aristocratic background, why she was hidden away for training, her mixed heritage, etc how did this affect her? how does she view it now?).

Both samples don't also give a good sense of her character either. The third person sample especially is too short, as it's only 291 words. Which is under the 300 word minimum limit.

You may revise with proper changes and try again if you wish.

Please let us know if you have any questions. Thank you for your understanding.

Hello, and thank you for your interest in The Wake! Before we consider your application for approval, we'll need a minor revision.

Your network sample is a bit on the short side and we would like a little more meat to it. Like why is he excited, what are his thoughts? Is it cool because he's discovered it on his own? The possibilities it has for him? Is there something amazing inside? Is it pretty?, etc.

Please let us know if you have any questions, and we look forward to your revisions.
