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!
Starter Pokémon! A compiled list of the starter Pokémon to choose from offered in Victory Road!
Player Name: Mochi E-mail: mochihearts@gmail.com Preferred Contact: Plurk @ Mochihearts Timezone: CST Current Characters in Victory Road: Allura
Character Name: Link Series: Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Timeline: Early game (ie. Feral Gremlin Link) Canon Resource Links:Here for general Link info, here for Breath of the Wild info.
Personality: When asked to describe Link, many people would probably struggle to find just the right words. “Knight,” “Champion,” and “Hero” might all come to mind, but that doesn’t really fully encompass who he is as a person.
One pair of travelers might remember him as the man who charged in to save them when they were being attacked by monsters on their way through the forest. One group of gossiping villagers knows him as the youth who bought and refurbished the old house on the outskirts of town, who tumbles through long enough to sleep, eat, and buy supplies before riding off again. There’s one stable worker who would describe him as “that lunatic who thought he could catch a mountain spirit for a mount.” Still others will recall a kind stranger who went out of his way to help solve their problems. Many people recognize him as the one who appeased the looming threat of the Divine Beasts on their doorsteps.
Regardless of what they know of him, very few really know him. Link rarely stays in the same place long enough to forge any deep connections. He’s made new friends all across the map, to be sure, but everyone he remembers from his past is dead and gone, save for one, and even for her he was a bit of a tough nut to crack.
Growing up as the son of a knight, Link was a playful child who took up the blade as early as four years of age. He spent a fair amount of time in the Zora’s domain, befriending their Princess, Mipha. In one of her journal entries, she describes an incident where she mentioned a large monster near the palace that was threatening her citizens. Link’s immediate reaction was to charge off and kill the creature. There’s a fine line between courage and recklessness, or so he’s been told, and it’s a line he tends to cross fairly often. His bravery as the Champion of Hyrule has been written into song over the last hundred years, serving as both inspiration and a cautionary tale for those who came after.
When he was chosen by the Master Sword as the appointed Hero of Hyrule, as well as protector of crown Princess Zelda, he became withdrawn and taciturn, or so it seemed to most. Link preferred to keep his thoughts to himself, already feeling the pressure of the world’s expectations upon him. He had to play his role in defeating the Calamity Ganon--to appear like a strong and stoic knight ready to bear that burden, he intentionally chose to keep quiet. It was not a vow of silence, exactly, but he became known as a man of few words.
Then, the Calamity came, and none of them were really prepared. Link fell protecting Zelda, just like he’d sworn to do, and he woke up a new man in many ways.
Now that he’s lost his memory. Link is more open again, like he was as a child, if still a bit shy at times. He’s still got that same kind, courageous heart, but he’s more free to talk and act as he wishes. There’s a competitive streak that gets frustrated when he loses, driving him to practice and perfect his skills. He’s fiercely determined; if he’s knocked down one hundred times, he’ll get up a hundred and one times.
He also has a bit of snark to him: Link’s sense of humor is dry, but he enjoys a good laugh as much as the next guy. He can be pretty chill when he isn’t tearing across the countryside. A consummate outdoorsman, he’s almost terrifyingly athletic; he can scale mountains, sprint through fields, ford lakes and rivers, and forage food from even the unlikeliest of places. He likes to eat a lot and will eat as much and as frequently as he has the opportunity.
He’ll adapt quickly to the world of Pokémon, just as he adapts to every situation he finds himself thrown into. He’s still the same brave, steadfast young man as he ever was, with or without his memories. Maybe he’ll even be able to help some people along the way to becoming a Pokémon champion.
