REQUEST berryfloss February 9 2008, 03:08:07 UTC

While your entire application is wonderfully comprehensive, there still remains the problem of the fact that this character's strengths still far outnumber his weaknesses. It seems as if there's relatively no consequence for his power use, other than tiring, and the weaknesses provided aren't quite weaknesses so much as personality traits that aren't too savory. Everything else is just amazing, the personality and thought put into it, but the powers are still bordering too much with too little in return.

Feel free to reply here or redo the application. If the former, kindly also reply to the main entry with a link to your addendum, so we don't somehow miss it.

beer_over_blood February 19 2008, 00:41:43 UTC

History/background: Eden was born to the Mac Cionaoith family inside of Connacht, in Ireland, to a bloodline of mages on her father’s side who are called the Children of Fedelm in reference to the prophetess in the Tain Bo Cuailnge. Theories on the bloodline say that they’re her descendents, or descendants of Queen Medb herself, but that’s all speculation. What remains of her bloodline, however, is her immediate family; her father and her two brothers. Her mother is a good Catholic who married into the family without knowledge of what she was getting into, and she remains unaware to a certain extent ( ... )

beer_over_blood February 19 2008, 00:42:24 UTC

Personality: Eden is, foremost, resilient. She is a survivor through and through. She survived her father’s abuse and the dangers of being what essentially a terrorist was and a smuggler ( ... )

Character:
Sarah Gabriel-Hargreaves
Abilities:
Well she has a very high knowledge of deadly poisons, but she can also control the blood in a person's body and control the person, but she can't use that to full affect because she just learnt it.
Flaws/weaknesses:
Sarah is afraid of spiders, and ultimately being alone. If she had to choose between being locked in a room full of deadly, giant spiders or being alone in a dark aybyss for all time, she'd choose the deadly spiders. Sarah also doesn't socialize with others that much, she'd rather pefer to be alone, which in a crisis could be deadly with no one to help her out.
History/background:Sarah was born to an older Merry-Weather and Oscar, and was raised in the luxury of high nobility. She was born into the Hargreaves Earldom, one of the most famous families in all of England, and one with a blood- ( ... )

Re: Original Character Application poison_heiress March 4 2008, 08:00:45 UTC

Personality:Calm, collective, otherworldly; one might try to attach any three, if not all, of these words to Sarah. Immensely serious, one might compare her to dark still pool, where the water gives the impression on undisturbed black glass. In conversation, Sarah only seems to ever be half there, giving her full and undivided attention, but as if, at the same time, paying heed to something else that no one but she can see. Her voice, whenever she speaks is low and quiet, but far from soft, much like the whisper of death itself. She is level-headed and practical, spending much of her time thinking, but always on “hard” concepts and facts; never on the airy or fairy. She is not always the most exciting person in the world, but it causes her little strife that not everyone sees her as bundling with adventure ( ... )

Re: Original Character Application poison_heiress March 4 2008, 08:03:34 UTC

Background setting: [the setting your character came from before PC]
Sarah still lived in the London of the 20th century, her life normal as it ever could be. She even was given the nickname "Heiress of Poison" after her uncle's nickname the "Earl of Poison". She gets a chuckle out of them, making her amused rather than annoyed, she really doesn't bother to think about other's thoughts about her anyway.

Though she beame terribly depressed after her friend, Anna, was found murdered, her friends' body chopped into pieces. Sarah became so enraged, that she blamed herself, for her curse, and swore to kill the person that murdered her one and only dear friend. Sarah hasn't captured the man or woman yet, but she knows that tshe will torture them until they plead for death, for no one can escape the sin of murder...

OC App: Laura Cadman P1 of God Knows vixen_notatramp March 7 2008, 08:09:19 UTC

Sarah here, re-apping Cadman as an OC, per mod's request. Here y'all go.

Name/Nick; Sarah works just fine.
LJ name: vixen_notatramp; formerly sappho_cried, which all my previous fannish activities have been under, for reference.
Other characters currently played [ name :: series :: lj username]: N/A as of this moment.

AIM/messenger: AIM: sapphocried Y!M: aphrodite_sang MSN: vanillacreme16@hotmail.com (Mock not, yo; I was 13 when I created this one.)

Character: Laura Cadman- call her Cadman. Really.

Abilities: Nothing superhuman here; Laura is athletic and capable- not to mention hell on wheels with anything that goes 'boom'- but you're lookin' to the wrong gal if you're hoping for something extraordinary. She's pretty damn kickass, if she does say so herself, but here's the thing about being relatively tiny; there's always somebody about two hundred pounds bigger ready to beat up on someone littler, and speed and technique don't mean shit when you're trying to arm wrestle someone who could throw you around like a ( ... )

OC App: Laura Cadman P2 of God Knows vixen_notatramp March 7 2008, 08:40:08 UTC

History/background: Laura is 33 years old, and the youngest of the four children in her family; her older siblings are all girls, to her father's vague disappointment. Henry had always wanted a son; it turned out Laura was that to him. They were extremely close, and her desire to join the Marines stems from the stories she heard all her life about his time in the Corps. Her childhood was spent largely with Henry; she played touch football with Henry and his friends every Saturday until she left for the Corps herself, and every morning they jogged five miles ( ... )

OC App: Laura Cadman P3 of God Knows vixen_notatramp March 7 2008, 08:47:58 UTC

Personality: Laura's a daredevil and a thrill seeker, and often puts herself in situations more cautious- and/or sane- people would not dare. Still, she's a survivor, with a strong will to live; she puts herself in danger, but she's not the type for suicide runs ( ... )

OC App: Laura Cadman P4 of 5 vixen_notatramp March 7 2008, 08:56:35 UTC

[third person / log sample]:Cadman raked a hand through her hair and exhaled loudly. This waiting around shit was for the birds; after so long of constant activity and life-threatening danger in Pegasus, even the Ori- who she not-so-secretly called 'Jehovah's Witnesses: TNG', because solemnity and appropriate humor in the face of peril has never been her thing, really- can't compare. Yeah, the Gate teams get in scrapes, but if it's between the Wraith and the Priors, the scary goth catfish win every single time ( ... )

Blitza Application Information undertaker_ted March 17 2008, 11:51:20 UTC

Character: Blitza Aleshipper Airflyer

Abilities: Blitza is an amazing Engineer. Though in his world technology is very ‘steam-punk’ Blitza has been known to create unique gadgets that can accomplish the most difficult of tasks. The years he’s spent working around forges and explosives have also given him a hardened skin, able to resist the heat of the forges he works around and, for a short time, open flames. Because of his background Blitza also has the ability to turn just about any scrap into material for his inventions, even trash and rubbish. Although he prefers to take days, weeks, sometimes even months to build his inventions, Blitza can cobble together a rough design of the invention, that will function just fine, but only for a short time before it collapses under the strain of it’s own use.

Flaws/weaknesses: Blitza is a physically ( ... )

Blitza Application History undertaker_ted March 17 2008, 11:54:47 UTC

History/background:Blitza was born into a very large, but very low class Goblin family. The Aleshipper family is the lowest of the low in Goblin society, working in the transport industry. They do their job well, but it doesn’t pay at all, and the family owes many debts to several of the Goblin Merchant Princes (Goblin ruling class). Blitza spent his youth malnourished and overworked, and often beaten for his inability to perform tasks, because of his weak body. When he grew old enough, Blitza left his family, running away from home at the age of 16 and hasn’t looked back since ( ... )

Blitza Application Personality/Background undertaker_ted March 17 2008, 12:01:11 UTC

Personality: Blitza is a fairly outgoing person, willing to talk with anyone and is generally friendly. Primarily motivated by greed, when Blitza isn’t actively being hired to pursue an activity, he’s trying to find someone to hire him. Not to picky about who he allies himself with, Blitza often makes friends with people that he probably shouldn’t, and accepts jobs that he definitely shouldn’t. Though money is important to him, once Blitza accepts a job, he will complete it, following the letter of the contract exactly. This isn’t because Blitza has any qualms about breaking his word from a moral standpoint, but because Blitza knows good business, and getting the job done, exactly as asked, is the image that he wants his future company to have ( ... )

Blitza Application Post/RP undertaker_ted March 17 2008, 12:05:48 UTC

Sample RP: Blitza stood on his ship and watched the cargo being loaded. This was quite a nice job, simple transport, no time limit, and it was only 3 boxes. The pay had been more than he’d expected, and the crew would have no clue that he was skimming off the top. Not that they weren’t being paid adequately, but they wouldn’t have to pay for repairs on the Zeppelin if something were to happen, and they weren’t expected to pay for any damages caused while the ship was in port ( ... )
