• 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.
Even though Crown has a hard time understanding others, and the belief his heart is dead, he does not. It's just has hard time seeing any of the good qualities about himself. When he does show his good qualities, he is often surprised himself when they're mentioned by others.
Abilities: Crown's magic is all dependent on how strong his mind and potential for magic is. With magic in his world, it gets stronger in a person the more they use it. But a strong mind is needed to keep from exhausting from using it so much or from it going berserk.
Crown is only capable of using magic with his 'tuner' sword and creating a limited number of swords. Overtime, the more he uses his magic it will become stronger.
What his sword his capable of doing is using the four elements (wind, fire, water, and earth.) Water and earth need to be close by if he wishes to use these two though. With all the elements he can blast enemies with them, but each element is capable of things on its own with his sword. With water, he can create high pressured hoses of water or freeze water and fire ice shards at his enemies. With fire, he's capable of creating streams of it or a wall. With Earth, he must stab his sword into the ground and slash it, when he does he can either fire boulders at people. He can summon spikes or pillars to shoot out of the ground towards his enemies, or create walls with them. Lastly, with wind, he can simulate flight or blasts of air to knock his opponents away.
With object creation, he is capable of creating up to ten swords with his current magic potential. He often uses these as spare weapons if he somehow loses his sword or uses them as projectiles (alongside his wind manipulation ability) to cause more fatal harm.
Crown has enough training in hand to hand combat to be able to take someone down about relatively his size. He is also able to preform acrobatics, though his landings aren't as graceful without his magic.
Unknown to Crown, his magic potential has given his mind and emotions a mental shield. Because of Crown's personality and how he is very guarded with his feelings, his magic has subconsciously put up a mental wall. For anyone who uses mind reading or empathy reading, Crown's mind and emotions seem almost nonexistent. Strong mind readers may be able to find cracks in his mental wall and view tiny fragments of what he's thinking, but other than that, he's completely unreadable. His mental walls only seem to come down when he begins feeling so overwhelmed that all of his emotions come out all at once.
When this happens, his magic becomes unruly. He loses control over it causing his magic to backfire or unleash his backed up emotions.
Sample Entry 1:http://logic-and-magic.dreamwidth.org/1119.html#comments Sample Entry 2: [The backyard is empty and Crown has taken advantage of this. He's setting up dummies to practice on for the time being. He can't ask others to spar with him, not right now anyways. He knows now, from the bad impressions he's been making, not many people in this town like him. Crown knew he wouldn't even be able to ask his house mates for help. If it weren't so bluntly told to him that he was heartless, he'd go on being oblivious to it. No one liked him. He knew it.
Still, there was no point in letting his emotions get in the way. He needed to keep practicing, for whatever the hell this town would throw at him. So he draws out his sword, cutting away at the dummies in front of him. All the while in the back of his head, that gnawing feeling of anger towards himself. Why couldn't he connect better? Crown wasn't like Cross, who could charm everyone with his outgoing attitude. Crown was just cold, dead even, on the inside. This fact was even more painful to admit to.
A dead heart after fifteen years of living? What kind of life is that? But he has to keep living. At least for his Brother's sake.
As he hacks away more at the dummies, he completely stops. Something warm is streaming down his face. He raises a hand and touches it. It's wet. Bringing his fingers to see it, he see's they're tears. So...he was crying? How is he supposed to handle this? It's almost too much. Collapsing on his knees he grips his head, choking on suppressed sobs he hid for so long.]
