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:Hythlodaeus Series: Final Fantasy XIV Timeline: End of 6.0 Canon Resource Links:https://finalfantasy.fandom.com/wiki/Hythlodaeus Personality: Hythlodaeus is a little ray of sunshine if rays of sunshine were also naturally manipulative and too clever for their own good. At first blush, Hythlodaeus is a very friendly, welcoming, and curious person. He is well received by others and generally treated with respect.
He’s very perceptive as well, which allows him to notice and analyze things on the fly and make well-thought out, if sometimes unorthodox choices in the face of unusual or dangerous circumstances. In fact, he can’t seem to ignore things that pique his interest, like when he saw a weird little thin-souled creation that looked kinda familiar. He simply could not let it go, even at the expense of his traveling companion.
His day job is the Chief of the Bureau of the Architect, which oversees what all the people of Amaurot can do with their powers of creation. This is in spite of being unable to actually create or use magic at the same level himself. However, he is gifted with the power to see what things are made of, and this seems to extend and connect to the fact that he is perceptive as well. He is described as a man who notices much and misses little. With this, he has befriended and consistently manipulates one of the most powerful men on the face of the earth.
He does also know that he is smart, likeable, and able to get his way, which does make him smug as well. His closest friend admits that he is incurably smug, though as curmudgeonly as this friend is, he holds him in the highest regard.
Although he has been given this high office of Chief, a lot of jurisdiction, and is surrounded by some of the most powerful and influential individuals of his time, he also has an enormous capacity to be reckless and dangerous. Hythlodaeus is a little armchair experiment about what someone with zero empathy would do if raised in an idyllic environment. The experiment yielded mostly positive, if weird, results.
Although he is patently weird in his context, he is also passionately devoted to his friends, whom he would literally trade his own life to save or let the world come crashing down for their sakes. Which he did do! For all of his own self-involvement, his rich inner life, and his love of others, he did sacrifice himself for the chance that his beloved friends might survive. For all of his snide remarks about unnecessary sharks, his attempts to manipulate others, his small and large abuses of station, he ultimately cares about his loved ones over everything he has going on within himself. In fact, it is his enormous depth that makes this sacrifice all the more bittersweet.
And that’s really who he is. He knows the score. He knows what he’s worth, and realistically understands what others can bring to the table in a very big picture sense.

Victory Road Sample: Alright, alright. I think I’ve spent enough time with the little creation to judge it fairly. Yet I would hate to bring my criticisms to the wrong department. So! So.. Whomever is responsible for this…
[Hythlodaeus lifts his Wooper into frame]
Please contact me! I promise to be fair and kind in my feedback. I’ll be honest, it could use a little work. Yet pray do not be discouraged! It has a wonderful overall concept, a delightful face, very competent combat abilities… Yet it leaves me wanting.
How do we feel about forelimbs? I think I would feel better about it if it had some measure of stability. The thing loves to climb, though I have not personally witnessed the process— It does find itself perched on lower limbs rather often.
This is hardly a one man committee, however! I would hear your own input, no matter how arbitrary.
By the by, I cannot seem to find the direct line for this city’s bureau chief. Who oversees all of this?
