VERSION 10 CLAIMS (ARE CLOSED)
OKAY SO.
This is your official V10 claims post. Welcome, one and all! \o/ We are your mods, Zarrah (me) and Kristin (paramount), and we'll be your guides through this particular corner of the internet. Keep your hands and arms inside the goatse, and off we go--
Some vital information is under the lj-cut, so before you do claim, take a quick look and then get in there. >:D
Version ten is an Original Character round, meaning you create your own character and play a round created entirely by us - weapons, island, proctor, the lot.
A few things to bear in mind:
♣ This class has no relation to the canon class. So no referencing them or generally being related to them in any way.
♣ It can, however, be related to previous OC rounds, since it's all formed something of a history. Ask permission if using a character that isn't yours, but your characters can remember previous rounds from the TV, news, etc.
♣ By the way, to prove you've read this, tell us how your character likes their sausage.
♣ Battle Royale is set in Japan as an isolationist dictatorship. This means that no non-Asian characters are allowed. No exceptions. No immigrants, no great-great-granddaughters of WWII prisoners of war, nothing. If you talk to the mods about allowing other East Asians - Koreans, Chinese, etc., we'll consider requests on a case by case basis.
♣ This is a Battle Royale, hence the title. There can only be one survivor of this, which means there is a very good chance the character you've created is going to die. Please be ready for this possibility.
♣ You are only allowed to play one character. However, you may claim one further character as an NPC - these are, for lack of a better term, public domain. You lose all right to them as soon as they're claimed. You can use them/kill them in-game, but it's on a first come, first serve basis.
♣ We will not be allowing incomplete profiles. This is basically to prevent misunderstandings on how a character should be written/used by others - if the profile is complete, everyone has information to work from. We will be checking for this. Relations is the only field you don't have to have completed when you claim. Please do not claim if you have not got a complete profile as we don't have time to check and recheck for you to to finish.
♣ For information on the fictional island this class hails from, Nishimajima, see br_ooc.
Make sure you've taken a look at the Rules before you start to play. They're long, but pretty important, so please make sure to read them. At the bottom of that page is the basic template for your character bio. Everything in the template must be filled out before you can claim, but you can add more information if you like!
Okay, and after all that - the form! Reply to this post with that and if you hear nothing back from us, your claim has been accepted. If for some reason we need to to change your bio or give us more info, we'll contact you asap.

It's as easy as that~ Also, guys, the user info won't be updated for a day or two - got to sort the kinks out, first. And you know, I've never done a rehaul of it before, so I'll be slooow. Keep an eye out for more information and discussion in the next couple of weeks!
We haven't decided how long claims will be open for quite yet, so just have at it. o/
Edit: Also, this is the 1000th post since BRRP2 begun, I've just realised. PARTY \o/\o/
