Guest Star Applications

[omegamods]

Omegafriends is no longer accepting applications - it is now a dressing room. Want to join? Just join!

Heroes need villains, and not every villain needs to hang around forever! To this end, we accept Guest Star Apps, applications for temporary characters who will be in the game only briefly before disappearing from our story.

Guest Stars differ from normal characters in the following ways:

• You cannot submit an application for a Guest Star unless you have at least one non-Guest character already in the game. 6/30/14: This rule has been provisionally disabled.
• You can only have one Guest Star active at a time.
• The application process is much lighter for Guest Stars - the sample can be smaller and the personality doesn't need to be as thorough.
• A Guest Star does not count towards your character slot maximum.
• Activity rules do not apply to Guest Stars.
• A Guest Star is automatically removed from the game six weeks after their application is accepted.

If you app a Guest Star and later decide to keep them in the game, expand your guest app to a full application and post it in the main Application Post for an upgrade.

<b>Player Name:</b> (Or alias.) <b>Player Contact:</b> (A plurk link would be fantastic, but we’ll also accept any combination of email, AIM or Dreamwidth PM contact.) <b>Characters you have in the game:</b> (Not counting this one. "None" if you're new.) <b>Character Name:</b> (Include aliases and superhero alter egos. For any Super, a Super Name is highly recommended. For Japanese characters or characters from other cultures that put family name first, go with western order.) <b>Character Canon:</b> (What they’re from. This is an AU game, so no canonpoint is required, but if there are multiple versions of a character (divergent timelines, for example), specify which one.) <b>Canon Background:</b> (This can be a link to a wiki or other resource, as long as it contains enough information to give us a very basic idea of who they are.) <b>Omegafriends Background:</b> (A potentially very brief rundown of who they are in this universe and how they got to where they are now.) <b>Personality:</b> (A paragraph or two is plenty.) <b>Powers:</b> (What can they do, and how much can they do it? Do they have any super weaknesses?) <b>Sample:</b> (Link us to an example of you RPing this character in this setting. Musebox posts or using testrun_box or the like are fine, and we’ll also run regular test drive memes. A single sample post or thread is fine.) <b>Notes:</b> (Anything else you'd like to mention?)

Player Name: Walker
Player Contact: WorldwalkerPure
Characters you have in the game: Cynthia Holylance

Character Name: The Hamburglar

Character Canon: McDonald's commercials

Canon Background: http://mcdonalds.wikia.com/wiki/Hamburglar

Omegafriends Background: Is he really a red-headed child wearing an outlandish costume, obssessed with cheeseburgers? OF COURSE NOT. The HAMBURGLAR is a force of nature, an elemental expression of purest 'I want a cheeseburger' feelings! BORN FROM THE HEART OF A STAR THAT WANTED A CHEESEBURGER, HE TRAVELS FROM WORLD TO WORLD, STEALING CHEESEBURGERS FOR HIS BURNING MASTER.
Or, you know, he could just be some guy with a lot of head trauma and dumb fast food-themed superpowers. Whichever.

Personality: The only words The Hamburglar speaks are 'cheeseburger' and 'robble', so it's a little hard to get a grip on his personality from that. Therefore, his actions will have to do. Sadly, all his actions can be summed up as 'steals and eats cheeseburgers'. Seriously, this guy is kind of epically focused on a very small set of actions. He basically doesn't have a personality, as befits an elemental avatar of cheeseburger cravings and/or a guy with severe head trauma and weird superpowers.

Powers: He possesses superhuman speed, toughness, and strength - as long as he is trying to steal and eat cheeseburgers. Anything outside of that, he's basically useless. Also, he has the ability to summon non-human minions known as the Fry Guys to serve him - strange creatures that resemble colored pompoms with a pair of noodly legs. They have no arms, travel exclusively with roller skates, and subsist on the french fries that inevitably accompany the burgers stolen by the Hamburglar.
