Sample Applications
I’d like to take a moment to go over a “What we’re looking for” Application and a “What we’re not looking for application” In a situation like this we are looking for writers because in the end all this is, is a writing exercise. It’s like writing Fanfiction, like any of the dozen or so other muse-writing communities on livejournal. We Mods are actually pretty lenient. This is simply the highs and the lows if you will, the applications that we want to see -the ones that make us do dances of glee when they show up in our comment box and the ones that make us twitch.
Plus, these are always fun to write.
(DISCLAIMER: These are not real applications. These characters are still very available)

The Devil is in the Details:
Character Name: Claire Bennet
Character Fandom: Claire is from Heroes on NBC.
Character Journal: not_supergirl.at.livejournal.com. (It’ll be under the tag “daemon_prompt”)
Character Daemon: Rufus is still in flux, although since she’s met West he’s been staying more and more in the shape of a Gila Lizard. (Loyal, tough, bred for the elements. I’m actually torn between Gila monster and Husky Dog but I ended up going for Lizard because every time she cuts off something…it grows back. Get it?) I
What would you like to get out of this game?: I’m a huge fan of the original books. I’d like to explore what happens when you’re a heroes character and you’ve got a daemon. Can you tell? How do Daemons react to things like this?
What would you like to put into this game?: Well, I work fulltime, so I’d like to be able to write prompts and maybe rp with a few people but I can’t put in much honestly. I can give you prompts though. I can manage that much.
What’s the Phrase that pays?: But Martha! The Toaster is on fire!
Introduce yourself at daemon_fen (in character):
Hi.
…I…really don’t know what I should say here since it’s one of those y’know, support group things. And I don’t need support. Like, I’m not kidding with how much I don’t need support. You wouldn’t have any idea.
This- * gestures to daemon * is Rufus. I know it’s kind of weird introducing your daemons like that, but he’s actually pretty friendly. At first I was a little scared. I’m not going to lie; I mean, my daemon was solidifying into a giant lizard? But…y’know, you’ve got to love who you are. It’s going to take some getting used to though.
So…I guess that’s it.
I’m nothing special.

Got the basic idea? Let’s look at another one.

The Devil is in the Details:
Character Name: The Joker
Character Fandom: If you don’t know who the Joker is you’ve been living in a cave for the past…millennia-I mean he’s from Batman. Specifically Batman TDK.
Character Journal: smileonface.at.livejournal.com
Character Daemon: She (Because it is a She) is definitely a hyena. However (and I hope you’ll respect this) She’s going to stay unnamed. I don’t think Harley Quinn would know her name, and its sort of better that way don’t you think?
What would you like to get out of this game? Does scaring people count? No-ah-okay. I dunno, I like writing the Joker and I think putting him in a game like this would be interesting. I saw a crossover with daemons in some community awhile back and the idea crawled into my head.
What would you like to put into this game?: I can promise you a freaky supervillian and an even freakier daemon companion.
What’s the Phrase that pays?: * licks lips * But Martha, ….The toaster’s on fire! * Laughs maniacally *
Introduce yourself in Daemon_Fen (In Character);
Good Evening Ladies and Gentlemen!
I’m sure by now you all know me and while I don’t need to know you to realize that the smell in here is the…revolting stink of people and daemons that like to think they’re masters of the universe.
No, I’m not going to do like the rest of you and introduce my better half because better-halves have a nasty way of getting in the way-just ask my good friend Harvey and hyenas… Go ahead and ignore her laughing-she does that occasionally. We’ll be around. Got to make sure you all stay in the game after all.

That wasn’t so hard was it? Now let’s look at some bad applications…

And it’s still shifting even though she found true love because she’s the chosen princess of the magical world and he can turn into a giant white dragon when he’s touched by Edward’s daemon because - * rambles *

Bella walks into the room. Where’s Edward? She asks. I don’t know, Amythest says, I am worried about him and Caldeus. We need them-I want to ask them ot turn me into a vampire1 I’m worried about them too. Have any of you seen them? * looks out at people in room * Tell me! I’ll stab you all if I don’t get what I want!

For the record, the mun has nothing against twilight, breaking dawn, or Edward/Bella. This was the first character that came to mind.
