• Please read over all the rules and information before applying in order to minimize any confusion before joining.
• If applying for a character that has already been dropped, it would be a good idea, though not required, to know something of their previous interactions. You are also free to pick up a dropped character with no memories of their previous time in Mayfield.
• All content for the personality and sample entry in your app must be written or roleplayed by you; for the personality section in particular, we do not accept copied text from wikis or other sources. Obviously, you may not copy your app from other players, whether in Mayfield or other games. Application plagiarism will result in a ban from the game.
• If you wish for your character to be placed in a specific house, please mention this in the relevant section of the application and specify that permission was obtained by the PCs already residing in that house. We will be operating by the Honor System for this, and there is no need for others to comment their permission in this post!
• Other special requests would also best go in the beginning of the application. Remember, grammar and spelling are important -- if your app contains errors, you will be asked to revise.
• Please post all applications or canon updates in this post; posting them elsewhere and linking to them from here may cause them to get changed later. Posting them here keeps us from having to save them.
When Applying, Fill Out the Following:
When Applying for an Original Character, Fill Out the Following
• Before applying, please look over any applications that were recently accepted to get an idea of what we're looking for.
• If you apply for a character that has already been reserved, we will inform you and ignore the application until the reserve runs out. You may not apply for more than two characters from the same canon. For the sample entry, you may write your own entry, or use a post from a musebox, dressing room, or other game. We recommend testrun_box if you prefer the latter!
• After you're accepted, please follow all of the instructions given. You will need to reply to the acceptance, post your journal to the friend add page and your canon post, join the communities, and use the friend add page to update your journal. Once you're accepted, please introduce yourself on the community when you're ready to play.
• If your app is "Pending", do not freak out! This means that we need you to make some revisions, and does not mean you're rejected. We generally give players a chance to revise before rejecting them, but we will reject apps that do not address the concerns stated when we asked for a revision. If you have been rejected, our reply will clearly state this to be the case. If we have not gotten back to you yet, under no circumstance does this mean you are rejected. If it has been over a week since our last reply, it would be a good idea to contact us with a reminder, otherwise, please be patient!
• If you have received a "Pending" notice, you will have one week to supply us with your revisions, or your reserve will be considered expired and that someone else is free to apply for the character.
• The typical wait for a reply on apps may be anywhere from a day to a little over a week. If any part of your application requires a pending, it may be another week after your reply to that before we can get to you. We process a high volume of apps every round, so please be patient.
• If you have not heard back on a pending for over a week after apps close, please send a PM directly to the mod account.
Sonic is able to run at speeds of Mach 1 and higher, easily able to break the sound barrier in a short amount of time. At this speed, he's able to still take tight turns (by using a drifting slide, or rotating in ball form) and even instantly sidestep obstacles. He has been known to move at speeds several times that amount, with some characters even speculating that he may one day break the speed of light.
He is able to internally Boost his speed, creating a sonic wake in front of him to disable incoming enemies. He can also keep speed in the air by performing tricks (likely by keeping his adrenaline at a high).
For other offensive maneuvers he uses his highly durable quills either jump attacking them, or running into them as a ball using a Spin Dash. His jump attack can either be done by itself, or boosting into a highly accurate tackle known as the Homing Attack.
He has several other techniques using pure speed. He is able to burst through wooden crates or pottery instantly and without injury, either by using his Boost or a downward stomp. He can use rows of rings to travel fast over pits or to find higher locations (Light Speed Dash), and can wall jump with ease. It's also been shown that he may be able to heal himself rapidly by vibrating his body molecules, not that he often needs to, since he is durable enough to plow through several robots without injury. He is also able to create small whirlwinds by going fast in a circle.
Sonic is surprisingly proficient with swords, though he doesn't like using them.
When in contact with the alien lifeforms known as Wisps, Sonic is able to use a wide range of transformation abilities, such as a full-body drill, even higher boosts, hovering, lasers, a rocket, spikes that are able to traverse walls, and a monster that consumes almost anything.
Sonic has a wide variety of super forms, accessed through various means. These include:
Werehog: When infused with Dark Gaia energy (and at night), Sonic becomes a Werehog. This destroys his speed, but is replaced by a highly elastic body and massive strength. This is a purely physical fighting form.
Excalibur-Sonic: By using the Sacred Swords of the Black Knight world, Sonic is given a golden suit of armor and the legendary Excalibur. He is able to fly, and his strength is enhanced.
Darkspine Sonic: Using 3 of the 7 World Rings from the Arabian Storybook World, Sonic can transform into Darkspine Sonic. He gains fire-based attacks, flight and enhanced strength from this, but can also be much more violent and angry in this form.
Super Sonic: Using all seven Chaos Emeralds, Sonic becomes Super Sonic. He is nearly invincible in this form, at his absolute fastest, can fly, and can use various light-based attacks. This form though, is limited by its need of ring energy to sustain itself.
Sample Entry:
Finding an opponent to race:
[Sonic spots the track team at the High School. He can't help but marvel at how fast the humans are...well...for human speed that is. So, he jogs forward...]
Hey there! You're all pretty fast, ain'cha?
[He wipes his thumb across his nose, as he gets their attention.]
But...betcha can't beat me. What d'ya say?
{Who let that dog in here?}
[Sonic pratfalls a bit.}
Finding someone to defend:
[The town is over-run with robots. The clunky kind seen in a B-Movie somewhere. One of the drone kids is about to get smashed by one...until it's arm comes clean off by a blue blur.]
Nuh-uh-uh. Can't let you do that.
[Sonic wags his finger at the robot as it stumbles back from the damage. He turns to the kid.]
Go on...get outta here before they...whoops!
[Instead of waiting, Sonic scoops the kid up and dodges the robot's counter-attack, bouncing off its face before speeding across the street, and letting the kid go.]
Ok you guys. Let's do this right. The plan goes liek this: I get fast...you get smashed. Any questions?
[As he's saying this, he's stretching out, barely giving the advancing hoard a glance as they lumber towards him.]
