♢ POTENTIAL APP DISCUSSION


POTENTIAL APPLICATIONS
How to

While the worldbuilding post is an excellent place to try and figure out City history CR, this page is more to help you to decide who you should apply for in the first place. Give us a good idea of what kind of character you're thinking of and let others comment in on how they might see it working!

Think of it as a thought experiment for yourself and other players. As a reminder, this is completely optional. You are totally free to reserve or apply someone without commenting to this post first.

♢ Reception to your idea will have no effect on how the mods process your app. This is only a tool to help you decide who to put the effort into.
♢ Don't spam or flame any potential character comments. While just going "OMG YES!!" can be encouraging, it doesn't really give anyone a whole lot to work with, and neither does shooting someone down. Be constructive.
♢ Give your honest opinion. If you think a character really wouldn't fit in the setting, express your concerns. Maybe the potential applicant didn't think of it from a certain point of view. Paired with the above, please don't just go "I don't think this will work". Provide some reasoning!
♢ Don't take anything personal. Anyone who comments back to you on this post is only trying to help — even if it isn't outright encouragement.

This is mostly in the hopes of getting some details fleshed out I AM TOTALLY APPING HIM

Your name: Liam

Character name: The Doctor (first)
Fandom: Doctor Who (Classic)
City life: Doctor of Science, highly regarded scientist and professor, if known to be a bit flakey

Powers: Uh, I have no idea here. :D Something brain/genius related I guess? Let's see. Maybe computer-brain - photographic eidetic memory, can remember every detail of everything he sees or hears ever, solve problems at computer speeds, pick up on details most wouldn't notice, figure out how technology works with ease, and learn new things quickly. He's no Superman. Call him. Brainiac. (No don't that would annoy him)

Do you think they'll be active? Very much so. I doubt he'll believe for a second that he's not really a Time Lord, so he'll probably wind up a trouble maker. >_>

Do you think they'll participate in plot? Probably? He's EVER so curious, and while he tries so hard not to get involved in things, that never works. Especially since he's waking up already involved.

Why this character interests you here: Well okay. I've been toying with the idea of trying fandom RP, and Doctor Who is probably my best-known fandom. Hartnell's Doctor just kind of speaks to me.

I'd been scoping places out for a while, wondering where to play, who to play, etc, and I saw your ad like the day after I decided I wanted to play the first Doctor. Looking at the game, I am in LOVE with the setting and premise and would have app'd an OC if I hadn't had a fandom idea. So you're getting a less-played Doctor instead. :D

Potential concerns: Uh well this is my first attempt at fandom RP (I've played OCs for years) so I'm worried about how I'll do. I'm really open to crit, though!

Also I have no idea what to put down for his age, since he was like 250 or something at his canon-point. :D

Aaaa his app is only missing a few things D:

Ooh, alright D: How about just the eidetic memory/speed learning, and not so tech-savvy (which I think would be hilarious when stuff won't work and he gets frustrated)
