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.

Character Name: Princess Anna of Arendelle Series:Frozen Timeline: End of Frozen Fever. Canon Resource Links:wiki link!
Personality: Rarely does one come across a princess as down-to-Earth as Anna of Arendelle, but she's the honest goods. Raised without much of the pomp and circumstance that normally comes along with being raised as royalty, Anna spent most of her time growing up alone, wandering the castle that was perpetually empty thanks to the closed gates. As such, she's fiercely independent and willing to take matters into her own hands, but also lacks the imperiousness or superiority complex of your typical royalty, which charms and endears her to her subjects. Take, for example, her sister Elsa's escape from Arendelle following her outburst. Instead of seeking help or even asking others to help her, Anna doesn't hesitate in asking for her horse and riding off to find Elsa herself, but not without making sure her people were taken care of first, and provided with warm food and blankets. While this may not have been the wisest decision, it was what she believed was right, and Anna refused to leave such an important task to anyone else. This showcases perfectly her rather headstrong disposition. She's stubborn and she follows her heart, even if it means ending up in a snowdrift or two, and a large proportion of the decisions she makes are based mostly on impulse instead of rational thought and weighing any pros and cons.
Anna is a very passionate person. She throws herself into everything a hundred percent, even if that's a hundred percent wrong. See: getting engaged to a man she met that day. It isn't the smartest decision, but Anna only wanted to be noticed and loved by someone. She was ready to do anything if it meant receiving positive attention. After being isolated from her older sister for most of her life and losing her parents at age thirteen, she lost her common sense somewhat when it comes to other people, which means she does things like get engaged to a man she just met that day. She’s hungry for even the slightest bit of attention or affection, and even small acts are enough to please her, if just for a little while. Above all, she's motivated by a need for love, whether it be romantic, platonic, or ultimately, sisterly.
On a more lighthearted note, Anna is bubbly, quirky, and has a good sense of humor that probably arose from spending so much time amusing herself with little company as a kid. She's energetic, shown riding her bike around the castle, running and jumping and acting not-quite-ladylike. Though she's sweet, she also is unsure of herself, and has a bad habit of causing trouble not only for herself, but for others, too. Arendelle lives in a state of half-amused fear at the havoc her shenanigans often wreak. She's also very awkward, her babbling and propensity for misunderstandings resulting in a lot of "wait, what?" moments, but she also can move past awkward moments quickly without being outwardly self-conscious about it. As a cover for a whole lot of underlying insecurity, she's relentlessly optimistic, and sometimes that gets in the way of being able to correctly identify the correct course of action or assess the situation.
What isn't readily apparent to most is that the princess is very insecure, constantly feeling like she's done something to deserve the emotional pain she's experienced. She even asks Elsa at one point, "What did I ever do to you?" Even though none of it was her doing, it's clear that she somehow feels at fault for her sister's isolation. On the other hand, Anna is shown to be incredibly loyal, and is motivated by her desire to save the day, to make things right, especially when she feels at fault. In a deleted scene, Anna chases a pig through the marketplace and wreaks havoc, but apologizes profusely to the villagers of Arendelle and promises that she'll make things right and replace everything she destroyed in the wake of her chase. She wants to be liked more than she needs to be respected, and above all she needs to be noticed.

Anna hasn't been to a festival, ever, in her entire life, so the idea of being able to attend a festival here in Johto is absolutely thrilling. As she strolls between rows of stalls, her Shroomish trundling along beside her, the princess can't help but give in to the urge to skip a little, light on her feet as always. There are so many people—so many new things to see and hear and eat that it's almost overwhelming. But at last she finds something that sticks out to her even more than all the sweet treats and flowers and interesting people: a test of strength. Anna perks up and leads Shroomish over to the man holding the mallet and shouting over the crowd, and digs in her bag for the right amount of money required to take her turn. The man gives her a dubious glance, but she just gives him a confident grin.
"Aw, come on. I'm paying you, you can at least let me try!"
That seems to amuse the man, but he shrugs and laughs and hands over the mallet; Anna takes it and only sways a little bit with the unexpected weight imbalance. She laughs, adjusts it in her hands and takes a firm grip, shifting her stance a little wider and approaching the target. "Okay. So I need to hit this as hard as I can, right? And then I win a prize? Easy!"
The man just snorts and steps aside. It's clear he's not expecting a tiny girl like Anna to be anything approaching successful, but it's like she said—she's a paying customer. She can at least take her shot.
The thing is, for someone who's five-foot-nothing, Anna has always been surprisingly strong. "Stand back," she tells her Shroomish; the Pokémon waddles backward a little bit, albeit grumpily. Once she's clear, Anna takes a big, deep breath and swings the mallet up over her head, bringing it down on the target with all her might. The shuttle leaps up, and although it doesn't make it all the way up to the bell, it's awfully close, and Anna grins breathlessly at the sight of the operator's face, which is frozen in surprise.
"See? Told you I could do it!" Anna crosses her arms, looking immensely satisfied with herself. "Do I win anything?"
The look of joy on her face as the man hands her a Snorlax plush the size of her whole torso could possibly light up the entire festival.
