We ask that potential applicants post their application in comments rather than linking. If their application contains explicit references to 'hard' spoilers (character death, unforeseen plot twists, big reveals, he was evil all along etc), players should put the application in their own journal or their character's journal and link it, making sure to mention the presence of spoilers within. For further clarification on our spoilers policy and whether or not your application needs to be linked, please check this page. Thank you for your cooperation!
The comment character limit on Dreamwidth is 16,000 characters so apps no longer need to be split into multiple comments; however this is at players' discretion.
While players are welcome to play multiple characters (five characters maximum are allowed per player!), please only apply for one character at a time, and wait for a decision before submitting another application!
A reminder for those waiting to hear back: Please don't be worried if we skip yours while going through them. It only means we needed a little more time to research!

Character Name: Princess Rapunzel of Corona Series: Tangled Timeline: post-Plus Est en Vous Canon Resource Links:Rapunzel @ Disney Wiki
Personality: In the series finale, Rapunzel jokingly refers to herself as a "free-spirited flower child". While this is clearly an attempt at a bit of self-deprecation to lighten up a dark moment, she isn't too far off the mark.
Rapunzel is a character who embodies the sun. Not just in the sense of her powers coming from the sundrop, but in her bright, sunny personality. Rapunzel has endured a lot of hardships in her life; kidnapped as a baby and raised by a terrible woman who preyed on Rapunzel's naivete, she initially starts off her life outside the tower absolutely terrified of everything. But what's able to outshine this fear is her absolute wonder when it comes to the world. See, Rapunzel is someone who truly enjoys life. She initially left the tower where Gothel kept her trapped not to escape, but to simply follow a childhood dream she had of watching the floating lanterns and finding out where they came from. She spends much of her first day outside simply running around the forest and embracing the feeling of nature around her, and it's only after she started to experience the real world that she realized she doesn't want to go back to her tower. Even later on in the series, Rapunzel wants desperately to find a way to see what's beyond the borders of Corona. She's been denied truly living for eighteen years, and fully intends to make up for lost time. She throws herself happily into anything she sets her mind to because of this; whether it's art, helping her friends, making NEW friends, or exploring, Rapunzel always puts herself a hundred percent into things.
This leads to a bit of an issue with being tied down. Rapunzel, understandably, hates the feeling of being trapped, and sometimes pushes back against others when things get too overwhelming for her. She dislikes the idea of being a princess content to live within the palace for the rest of her life, and is quite understandably terrified of her supposed "Destiny" to unite the sundrop and moonstone. She even rejects Eugene's marriage proposal, not because she doesn't love him, oh no! She loves Eugene dearly. But Rapunzel wishes to travel the world, to see things that she never could have seen from the window in her tower. Settling down... isn't in the cards for her just yet.
Of course, those eighteen years in a tower with only an abusive mother figure to talk to means that Rapunzel is... somewhat bad at social situations. She has no clue how to read the room or how to read people, and very often does or says something that causes harm that she sees no problem in. When conducting her first official meetings with other nobles, she introduces herself while barefoot, or hugs or otherwise invades the personal spaces of others in what should be a formal setting. She ignores the rules of proper events to make things more "interesting" and sometimes winds up making more trouble than fun for other people. But Rapunzel tries, because at the heart of all her awkward interactions, she just wants to make people happy and to help them have fun. She's just... a bit naive, that's all. To her, it doesn't matter that her best friend is a servant, or that her boyfriend doesn't initially do much around the castle; she doesn't see it as a problem, so why should that bother others?
Stemming from that, Rapunzel is... a bit bad at taking others' feelings into account. She often brushes her friends feelings aside to try and insist on how she feels about certain situations; when Cassandra and Eugene bicker, does she let them calm down and talk it out? No, she locks them in a prison cell and concocts an elaborate fetch quest to make them get along. When Cassandra expresses her worries that Rapunzel doesn't trust her anymore, does Rapunzel comfort her and insist she does? No, Rapunzel tells Cass that she needs to be okay with some decisions that Rapunzel makes that she might not agree with. Rapunzel's heart is absolutely in the right place when she wants to help her friends or try and talk things out with them when problems arise, but her execution can leave much to be desired. Thankfully, events in the Dark Kingdom and her later return to Corona help her reevaluate how she acts around others. She can't just expect them to understand her - she needs to take the time to understand them as well.
But despite all these complicated feelings and her trouble trying to navigate certain dynamics, at her heart Rapunzel is an intensely loving young woman. She believes wholeheartedly in her loved ones, and though she'll stand up when she's pushed too far, she absolutely refuses to give up on others. This is best seen in her relationship with Cassandra in the third season of the show. Cassandra betrayed Rapunzel, fought with her and hurt her friends and tried to kill her, but did Rapunzel give up on her? Hell no. Rapunzel could see that something was wrong with Cassandra, and she knew that deep down, Cassandra was still the same person who was her friend, the same one who helped her sneak out of the castle when she saw Rapunzel was getting overwhelmed by her new royal duties. Rapunzel's absolutely unconditional love for the people she holds close to her heart is one of her biggest strengths, and that love and belief in them is what helped change Eugene and Cassandra's lives for the better. No matter what, Rapunzel will always be there for the ones she holds close, and though she may not always address the situations perfectly, she'll try. Because it was the love of others that helped her break free, and she will always repay that kindness and spread it further.

Victory Road Sample: [Another day, another bizarrely-angled video of someone who's clearly never held a piece of technology before. The freckled face of a young woman with short brunette hair pops up on the screen, the curious tilt of her head and the angle of the camera making for an odd sight indeed. But despite a slight furrow of her brow, there's no overwhelming sense of panic in her expression. She looks fascinated, really, tilting the gear this way and that to get a better look at it.]
Wow. It's like... some kind of magic mirror, but not? Varian would go nuts over this.
[Maybe not the magic part, but it definitely looks like an incredibly refined bit of Demanitus tech. Varian would be itching to take it apart.]
So I just talk into it, and other people can see it? [There's some murmur of agreement from off-screen, from the poor patient soul who's had to give this new arrival the run-down on technology.] Great! Thanks a bunch!
[The video finally settles as the young woman stops fidgeting with the device, and she clears her throat before waving at the camera.]
Hello, people of... this land! [Oh boy she really needs to check out a map soon.] I'm Princess Rapunzel of Corona, and I'm... a little lost.
[...]
Okay, really lost. I mean, I'm not really a sleepwalker, but even if I was, I don't think I could walk off to a completely different region in one night! So, um... can anyone tell me what happened? And how I can get into contact with my friends? [...] Oh! Unless they're here too? Or can see this...
[She pulls the gear closer, not quite to the level of an unflattering angle, but it's almost like she's staring hard into the screen and willing faces to appear.]
Eugene? Pascal? Lance? Varian? [There's... a pause, where the princess looks somewhat uncertain, before calling out one more name.] Cass?
[It's a long shot. Cass has been off on the road for a few weeks now. But still...]
