Name: Bobby Chapman

Nickname: Naar

Age: 18

When in a fight, he wears the teams uniform like the rest of the squad.

Club: Soccer team

Biography: Born in the country Caledonia, Bobby lived there till his dad had to move to Escapia for his job. Caledonia is a country where soccer is called football, the fights between supports of teams are as big as a match as the game it self and they are aloud to drink when there 16. As such Bobby has been fighting in these matches since he was 16.

After coming to Escapia, he fond out that the culture here was very different from where he came from. The big brawls after match's didn't exist here. They call football, soccer and there isn't a fish and chips shop for miles. So to have something to do, he joined the soccer team.

Because of this, Bobby is a bit different than the rest. Likes a good brawl and will always help his mate's. He loves hanging out with his mate's and drinking. Unfortunately in Escapia, you must be 21 to drink. This pisses him greatly off.

Can I just ask people who've put their username as their nickname, to make sure the nickname makes sense, not just use your username because it's an RP based around Escapist themed things. (Yes this includes my fellow GM's :0)

For example >_> people who have their initials as nicknames, and also have their character names with those initials, those are good! You can understand why they'd have that nickname.

Just saying, is all. <_<

Name: Christoph Williams

Nickname: Clown

Age: 17

Appearance: Christoph stands at about 5'10", and is rather attractive. Christoph wears a ridiculously decorative purple cloak with a golden trim, and light purple trousers that fight tightly yet comfortably to allow for maximum flexibility. He has piercing blue eyes that can coerce even the coldest of girls, yet still finds himself single. He has a golden bangle on his wrist that he never takes off. Christoph is built athletically, though isn't very strong.

Club: Fencing Club

Biography: Christoph comes from a very wealthy and middle-class background. He was initially home-schooled, but soon decided he wanted to make friends. He has always been a try-hard, but has never particularly succeeded at anything. While academically intelligent, his common sense is lacking, earning him his nickname. No matter how much he is knocked, Christoph will never back down, which is a great testament to his character. From a young age, Christoph tried to find a hobby he could stick with, and often switched weekly, reaping the benefits of having a life payed for by his parents. Until he discovered fencing, Christoph never stuck to anything, which irritated both his friends, and his relatives. Christoph's parents are pushovers, and adhere to his every demand, leaving him to be a spoiled individual that has no concept of patience. This attitude to life often leaves Christoph treating those at his level or above like he owns them.

Primary Power: Christoph's primary power allows him to conjure an explosion of notes (money), hiding Christoph for half a minute, enabling him to retreat, or simply hide himself for a surprise attack.

Secondary Power: Christoph's secondary power allows him to spin around at motion-blurring speeds, creating both offensive and defensive techniques if used in conjunction with a sword.

Other information: If Christoph can't get something he wants, he will become impatient, and start stomping around, often following the person he's asked a favour of, annoying them to the point of violence.

Sorry for editing!

Mm, as I; isn't a nickname more typically based around a notable trait of a person, or one of their hobbies or something? What's more, I was under the impression that, since we were making the RP with an Escapist theme, it was nice to have a tie to one's on-site persona? Heck, a lot of the time nicknames don't make any sense, unless you know the story behind them, which in turn could lead to character development as those reasons are revealed...
Hey, you know what, the nicknames probably aren't a big deal anyway. I'm gonna ask everyone to call my character Samantha, since that's her actual name, and it'd be improper to call a young lady "Sam"...

Alright, the applications are now closed. We have enough reserves that we just need to wait for everyone to get a sheet in and, as we have a few too many people, they get in an audition (basically right a few paragraphs so we can see your writing style.)

Good luck.

Either way I (kinda) have explained it to that his (What he will call) Ubermode is that he either sprouts crystal Angel and/or Demon wings from his back depending on his mood and the cause he's fighting for.
Both Angel: Evil cause and Bad mood
Both Demon: Good cause and Good mood
Left side Angel right Demon: Evil cause and Good mood
Left side Demon right Angel: Good cause and Bad mood

What is a man?

Name: Sonya Ravenhall

Nickname: Darkly

Age: 15

Appearance: Sonya hyas long dark black-purple hair, and her eyes are a greyish-lavender color, she's about 5'8, and she's rather slender, with fair complexion, she is usually wearing a stereotypical school uniform with a red ribbon on it.


Club: Occult Club

Biography: Sonya's father abandoned her, her mother and her younger sister when she was young, and her mother has always paid her very little attention but she and her sister were always close, as such she has developed into a very shy, occaisonally depressed and reclusive person, prefering the company of her hobbies, and the spirits she sometimes speaks to instead of actual people. She hates crowds and wide open spaces, and she tries to hide what she's really feeling. She was sent to the academy out of her own choice and she was naturally drawn to the occult club. She has been known to snap from time to time, and if she opens up to someone and trusts them she can get clingy or obsessive over them.

Primary Power: Unlimited Saw Works: She can generate buzz saws out of mid air and can fire them at will, She can also create a magical bone saw at will and can use that as a melee weapon. Creating the saws takes away energy, creating the large saw swallows up a large sum of energy, If she's too tired she can't generate anything.

Secondary Power: The Haunting Hour: Sonya Conjours up entities and spirits to fight for her and can even have some possess her for some added fun, when possessed she becomes more resistant to pain, gains slight poltergeist like abilities and can pass through walls and most physical attacks(But magic and energy based attacks cannot be phased through), but when the possession is over she is sent into narcoleptic sleep like state.

Other information: Enjoys gaming, anime and music may be prone to aiding those clubs, she also dislikes sports and cheerleading due to her somewhat anti social tendencies. She also enjoys reading and sewing. And she can't use both her powers at once, it's either or.

Alright, thanks a lot! I fell asleep before I could finish and submit it, but here it is.

Are we supposed to write it up now or wait for everyone to post their sheet? Also what should it contain? A fight against Generic Enemy C?

Primary Power: Unlimited Saw Works: She can generate buzz saws out of mid air and can fire them at will, She can also create a magical bone saw at will and can use that as a melee weapon. And if that doesn't work, she can temporarily trade both those powers for a wicked Chain saw. Creating the saws takes away energy, creating the large saw swallows up a large sum of energy and the chainsaw burns her energy like crazy so she has to weigh the odds against using each. If she's too tired she can't generate anything.

Secondary Power: The Haunting Hour: Sonya Conjours up entities and spirits to fight for her and can even have some possess her for some added fun, when possessed she becomes more resistant to pain, gains slight poltergeist like abilities and can pass through walls and most physical attacks(But magic and energy based attacks cannot be phased through), but when the possession is over she is sent into narcoleptic sleep like state.

Very good sheet, Safe, but could you please get rid of the chainsaws? Bonesaws are fine, but not chainsaws.

Name:Cecilia Ce Satchel

Nickname:Xthecommander

Age:15
Club:Music Group

Biography:Cecilia is a very quite girl, she keeps to herself, and is a spectre, she is there, but you can't see her. She was brought here because her father had to move, at the time he served in the military, however, he died in an accident, and she now lives here for the time being.
She likes to not be near a large group of people, however, she doesn't mind having friends, and she is only smiling if she is listening to music, but she never shows it if someone is around her.

Power:She has the power to manipulate light to do many things, such as making herself invisible, and creating illusions, she can do just about anything, but it takes alot of concentration, and she has only mastered illusions, and invisibility to a point were she doesn't need to concentrate alot.

2nd Power:She has the ability to manipulate a sounds magnification, in other words, she can make a sound of nails on a chalkboard with the simple snap of a finger, or she could make a sound of glass shattering. However, the main use of this power is to make a sound that is horrible to the ears (like nails on a chalkboard sort of thing.)
She has learned to keep this to an area, using many other waves to counteract the one wave, so that it is only audible in a certain area, but this takes alot of concentration, and so far, she is unable to do it at all.
Unfortunatley, she also trys to get a larger area, since the sound is only audible in a certain area, when she wishes it to be heard in a large area.
Finally, she needs a sound to magnify, such as throwing a pencil to create a small sound, which she magnifys to whatever extent she wishes, however, she can only get as high as nails on a chalkboard at the moment.
This power is limited to a time of 20 seconds, with a cooldown of 5 seconds, also, the sound affects her as well, meaning, she never uses the power, unless she knows she is a safe distance from the target area, so that she can use it, but this is a problem, because of her range, which is a range of 12 meters.

First day of a new year, so getting ready, going to school, the school day-any of these are good ideas.
