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?)

Propeller Knight | Shovel Knight

[spin_controller]

Player Name: Prof
Player Contact: ProfessorProf
Characters you have in the game: Erika Kurumi, Aya Shameimaru

Character Name: Propeller Knight
Character Canon: Shovel Knight
Canon Background: Shovel Knight is not a game with a detailed backstory.
Omegafriends Background:
The Order of No Quarter is an ancient and proudly sinister order of knights, dedicated to the pursuit of power, the abhorrence of mercy, and the furthering of the goals of true villains. Every time one dies or retires, another takes their place, so that there are always eight knights among them. The Order seeks out villains of the highest calibur, and sends knights from their number to serve them in whatever evil plans they may concoct. Why? Chaos for the sake of chaos.

Personality:
Propeller Knight is a romantic at heart - or some sort of weird villainous equivalent of the same. He admires all forms of beauty in the world, and often waxes poetic over whatever catches his fancy. He flirts shamelessly, but not with any intent of winning hearts - it's just how he interacts with people.

He is also, however, a knight of the Order of No Quarter. While he may be amiable before battle, he is merciless during it. He cares not for what reason his current master fights - the fight itself is his purpose, and to further the cause of evil and chaos in the world. His true identity is forever secret, his helmet never to be removed.

Powers:
Ostensibly none, although the physics of his helmet is pretty dubious. By using his propeller, Propeller Knight can hover or soar through the air, but he is also strictly a melee fighter. His primary weapon is his trusty rapier, and he carries it with great skill.

Sample: http://omegafools.dreamwidth.org/3287.html?thread=959191#cmt959191

Notes: He may have a ridiculous French accent. It may be fake.

Thanks for being a part of the game, Propeller Knight! Your time as a Guest Star has come to an end.

If you are still interested in keeping Escudo around, you will have to do a full application.
