As of course, everyone knows that you need to describe your character well, whether it's a cannon or not, so that we (the mods) can see how well you can manage the character and maintain its personality. Please be as descriptive as possible, show everyone how well you know your character and why you deserve to play that character. The more effort you put into your profiles the more likely we are to approve them.
To be honest, if you're going to apply for a cannon character, I will reject the profile if I find it was copied off of another site. I hate plagiarism, and I won't let it's ugly face show up in the forum, so If you copy, you'll get to restart. The first time the offence is caught, you will be warned (and you'll have to start over), but the next time it happens, we the mods will decide whether your account will be frozen.
Remember to be patient after posting your profile, as there are only a few mods at the moment, and your profile will require both of our approvals to be accepted. Also, no Mary Sues, or Gary Stues. We refuse to approve any character that seems to overpowered. Enjoy yourself, let other characters help, nobody can take on the entire world by themselves, so it's important to design your character realistically.
Now let us leave the creepy mod voice behind as we have left the warnings. I happen to be a very friendly mod, especially when pleased with a good profile. So go crazy, and let's see what you can do. I've made a basic Cannon template here, *points below the paragraph* please copy it, and use it to build your profile. This template helps keep your profile organized and easy to read, as Yen has a hard time reading messes. Good luck, and I hope this has made posting a bit easier!
Cannon Character Template
Official Name: (Name the character was born with)
Nicknames: (Names the character is often called)
Age: (If known)
Gender: (Boy or girl?)
Alignment: (Is your character good, bad, or nuetral?)
(If you have a picture to display, put it right here!)
Appearance: (What does your character look like? Pictures are nice! Because this is a cannon character, you don't have to describe as much as you would with an original character.)
Defining Features/ Disabilities: (Does your character have a scar, broken bone, strange hand, odd markings? This is a good place where you can describe features of your character that don't normally show.)
Goals/Ambitions: (What drives your character to do what it does? Are they looking for something?)
History: (Past to present, what happened to your character?)
Personality: (What do they act like? How does the character act around others?)
Weapons and Tools: (What does your character use to fight? What are their techniques and styles?)
Friends/Family: (Who do they know?)
RP Sample: (Preferably large, well written, and it must have your character in it.)
Additional Information: (Is there anything strange about your character? Funny quirks?)
Here's the copy paste version of the template!
