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!
Please use the form below to apply! If you have any questions, feel free to ask any of the mods.
Helpful links!
Taken / Reserves Please do not app a character from either of these unless you reserved them!

Character Name: Naoto Kurogane Series: Blazblue Timeline: Post Central Fiction Canon Resource Links:https://blazblue.wiki/wiki/Naoto_Kurogane (tw: visual amputation in the biography tab of the link) Personality: Naoto came from a life full of tragedy, but still manages to keep a smile on his face. The tragedies he faced shaped his thinking into one of total isolation, making sure he’s alone or else he starts fearing the worst if one were to know he even existed. This world view does not stem from a fear of being cursed, rather it’s because he’s too kind hearted to subject anyone to his sadness. From losing most of his family to his own sister at a young age, to becoming a vampire and a three-time amputee within the span of two months within his second year of high school, saying ‘he’s gone through a lot’ is a huge understatement. Because of this, he doesn’t allow anyone into his life easily—either they come willingly, like his cousin, or rather rudely crash in, like his master, Raquel.
If given the chance, Naoto will actively avoid crowds and any sort of interaction. He’s even the person who will sit there and think over how to respond instead of blurting anything out. However, he is capable of being social and acting like the stereotypical energetic type, but rarely any of his smiles reach his eyes. He does have a side of him where if pushed, will use a sharp tongue and his fiery temper to protect himself from anyone getting too close. It’s helped him keep everyone at arm’s length, unwilling to let anyone see just how much of an empty person he really is. (Because of his love of the otome visual novel genre, though, he does have a small hope that finding romance might help him recover. You’d have to pay him exorbitantly to even admit he loves the visual novel genre though.)
Because of the tragedies he’s faced, Naoto has a maturity one might have if they were well into the end years of his life. Naoto’s basic needs may have been covered through his aunt and cousin’s charity, but his emotional turmoil was left to fester, and he had to become his own therapist in order to cope. This was all done because of one of Naoto’s inheritances: the Eye of the Hunter. The eye’s ability was that it allowed him to see a person’s emotional and physical states in the form of a bright red number hovering over one’s head. This number allowed Naoto to see that whenever he dared to speak of his trauma, the number of the listener would drop, and because of Naoto’s kind hearted nature, he simply stopped, even if it meant ending a conversation in an awkward place. And because the eye is a secret to the entire world, Naoto can’t even speak about that.
Despite his guarded nature, he will gladly face the world with a smile, as it’s the only way he feels he can take it on. His greatest wish is to live a normal life, away from the chaos of what he has to deal with on the daily. To meet that goal, he feels as if he needs to put on a smile, before the world tears away even that. He will definitely be careful, but there isn’t anything he won’t face without the hope for a better future.

Litwick’s Pokédex entry states that it often acts as a guide for others, even if it means draining one’s energy. Naoto often does not tell someone when they are close to death, but seeing as Litwick will guide anyone, Naoto will learn from the little candle. Password: Atomic Fireball
