Character Application Form

VANISHING POINT MUCK APPLICATION FORM

Once you're ready to apply for a character, please put the following information into an email and send it to vanishingpoint@mail.com

PLAYER INFORMATION

Player Name: (Your real given name, with surname if you feel comfortable giving it.)
Player Age: (Your age in real life. We will not reject applications for player-age reasons, but we prefer that players be at least 16.)
Player E-mail: (The e-mail address at which you can best be contacted about your application and other MUCK issues. Obviously, this needs to be real, because it's where we'll send your account password.)
Alts: (Other characters you play or have played, whether at Vanishing Point or other MU*s. Please be sure to list all of your VP alts, but other MU* characters are up to your discretion, although we'd appreciate knowing. For simplicity, please use the character@MU* form, e.g. "Zipporah@Vanishing Point.")

CHARACTER INFORMATION

Character Name: (The name your character goes by; this will generally be his or her given name, but it might be an alias or nickname. Please note that this should generally be a normal human name. This will also be your MUCK login for this character.)

Species: (Is this character a Pokemorph, a human, or a Pokemon? For Pokemorphs, please use the *-Morph form, e.g. "Pikachu-Morph," to avoid confusion.)

Des Anges Score: (If your character is a Pokemorph, this is the character's score on the Des Anges scale, ranging from 10 to 100; the average 'morph is around a 40. The higher the score, the more Pokemon-like the 'morph is, and the more potential problems they may have in society.)

Age:(The age of the character. Please note that we will not accept characters younger than 13: chronologically for humans and Pokemorphs, physically and mentally for all species.)

Profession: (What does your character do for a living? These should generally be everyday, normal human occupations appropriate for characters on modern Pokemon Earth; characters can also be students, retired, or simply unemployed. Please note that Pokemorphs are not currently allowed to enlist in the military or hold public office. Pokemon characters need not fill out this field, but if they work at a specific job, you can note it here.)

Description: (The physical description of your character; you'll probably also use this as your @desc in-MUSH. As well as basic body details, this should include their typical clothing and distinguishing marks. Feel free to be descriptive here, but this should probably be a simple paragraph or two, and avoid being overly florid.)

History: (Your character's history. This should be fairly in-depth, at least several paragraphs long, and discuss their whole life to date. Please try to keep the events of your history fairly plausible and realistic while still making them interesting.)

Personality: (What is your character like, how do they treat people, and what do they like to do? Please try to be specific here; "he's a nice person" does not a good personality section make. This should be at least a paragraph or two.)

Moves/Abilities/Skills: (If your character is a Pokemon or Trainer, please list their/their Pokemon's moveset(s) and ability/abilities here. Movesets must be game-legal: four or fewer moves, all of which can be learned by the species in any of the games. If your character is a Pokemorph, please list any and all supernatural abilities they gained from their morphed state; this should be low in power level and appropriate for their species, as laid out in the theme material. Additionally, please state if your character has any combat or military training. You will be expected to stay within the limits of what is presented here, so please be complete.)

The Vanishing Point wizards aim to review applications at least twice weekly; if you haven't received a response within a week of sending your character application, please feel free to contact us to find out what's going on.

Each player may hold an unlimited number of characters. However, all new players will be subjected to a probationary period of one month, during which period they are limited to a single character. Additionally, should you decide you no longer wish to play a character, please let us know.
