Application Form

[ALIAS:] [Your character's name?]
[SEX:] [Your character's gender?]
[AGE:] [Your character's real age?]
[SPECIES:] [Your character's species?]
[RANK:] [Your character's rank?]
[FACTION:] [Your character's faction?]

[PERSONALITY:] [This is the section for personality; introduce your character to us here, let us get in his/her head! We want a good picture of what kind of person they are, how they act around other people, how they react to different situations - basically, demeanor and defining personality. You must list at least five personality strengths and weaknesses, what they like or dislike, if they fear something, etc. Please mention ambitions, dreams or goals here, or in the history section.]

[APPEARANCE:] [This is the section for your character's physical appearance; tell us what he/she looks like! Describe your character's overall build, mention their general height or weight, tell of their skin complexion, et cetera. What color is character's hair, how long is it, what style it is kept in? What color are their eyes of, and more importantly, what kind of feeling or thoughts they reflect? Tell about his/her style of clothing, outfits they will often wear, accessories, distinguishing markings, the general impression their appearance gives off to other people.]

[FIGHTING SKILLS:] [This is the section for your character's combat capabilities and skills; so, tell us how your character fights in general and what they specialize in, in terms of combat! Do they rely on strength or speed, or perhaps spiritual energies; are they more comfortable with a sword, a gun or do they embrace a style of hand-to-hand combat? List any strengths of the combatant, but remember to add equal amount of weaknesses, so we don't have characters, who are basically good at everything. Are they more offensive or defensive?]

[GENERAL POWERS:] [This is the section for unique, inhuman abilities and capabilities of  your character, that makes your character unique. Initially, there is no limits, but we ask people to use common sense; one or two abilities is fine, but if they get too numerous or too overpowered, the staff will ask you to change this section. This section is basically for powers available to your character most of the time; equipment, releases and the like go to a different section entirely.]

[FIRST RELEASE:] [This is the section for the primary release of your character; this means shikai for shinigami, resurreccion for arrancars, dolls for bounts, spirit weapon for the quincy, released object of affinity for fullbringers. Other species, like humans, modified souls and hollows, do not initially get a release, but are allowed for more powers in the previous section. Detail any information relevant to your release, but put an emphasis of the powers you gain access to.]

[SECOND RELEASE:] [This is for high-tiers only, and a section to your more powerful release;  for the most part, this kind of power is not available on application. Read the guidelines for this; if you have met the requirements, and been given a staff approval, you should follow the instructions on the first release. Detail any information relevant, but put an emphasis on the power of your release.]

[EQUIPMENT:] [Any special equipment, gadgets or combat tools should be listed here, in a section designed for it. Characters are allowed to have equipment, but keep in mind, that staff might not like you have more than one or two of these. Exception to this is humans, who are given a larger amount of available equipment, to make up for their disadvantage; this applies to characters attuned to creating of gadgets, items, et cetera, to whom this is primary means of combat.]

[HISTORY:] [You are nearing the end of application; this is the section for your character's backstory. Tell us of his/her origins, early life (childhood, adolescence), but put some effort to their spiritual awakening and apotheosis (the time, when they gained their powers) and then about the present day. We don't want a dull history; we want a backstory, that captivates our eyes, and makes us give you a decent tier. Use common sense. Staff will review this section carefully, and it will probably matter the most, when we are considering a grade for your character.]

[OOC NAME:] [Your name out-of-character?]
[NOTES:] [Anything else? Preferences on whenever we PM your our review or post in the topic? If you have nothing else to say to the reviewer, put N/A here.]
