First, thank you for your interest in Halcyon!
Second, if you are ready to apply, you should fill out this form and then, after you're done, message it to me! If your application is accepted, it will be posted in this thread and I will message you a google form for you to fill out (which is, basically, your character's profile!).
Third, I reserve the right to reject a profile even if I have accepted the proposal.
Fourth, getting to possible questions!
Q: How come you have this application process? Why can't you just evaluate based on the profile?
The application process is a way for me to screen ideas before they can become full-fledge profiles. It saves me time from having to read a full profile and it saves you time from writing an essay that won't go anywhere. Moreover, by doing this, I can make the profile more "fun." I don't have to keep it traditional (blocks and blocks of text). I can do what I have done—survey-style.
Q: Why isn't this first-come, first-serve?
It is and it isn't. I don't take reservations because I want to see what your idea is before I give you the green-light. And while I appreciate all forms of creativity, there are some ideas that won't work well with the preset story and I want to nip those ideas at the bud instead of playing damage control during the game.
Q: I thought I was approved for a role! Why does it say "Accepting Applications" again?
When I approve your application, you have one week's time to fill out a profile and submit it. If you don't, the role you applied for is no longer "reserved" and is, instead, open to applications again. You can re-apply for the role, but you would have to go through the process again and, if you have a competitor, I will pick the best-fit profile.
Q:Why can't we just fill in the profile template ourselves? Why do we have to fill out this Google Form?
This sounds really, really silly and absurd and everything, BUT, I am a stickler for uniformity—especially when it comes to profiles. I don't like poor formatting and, in an effort to avoid that, I have decided to format everyone's profile for them. It's better this way, trust me.
Q: Why do we have to give you a link to an unedited/clean image of our character?
It's, more or less, the same reason as above. Plus, this will be a free graphic from me to you! Enjoy it. I might never do this again, lol.

PLEASE FILL OUT THIS FORM BEFORE YOU MAKE A PROFILE! Any profile without an approved application will be summarily rejected!
EXAMPLE
USERNAME: `JOONISM
TIMEZONE: GMT-8 / PST
AVAILABILITY: I can post once every 1-2 days.
CHARACTER ROLE: The Azurite
CHARACTER BLURB: As stories go, The Azurite is the token: I'm a descendant of someone amazing, but I'm a complete failure! He's nothing like his great-grand-aunt or his mother, who was, in her own rights, an amazing woman. All he has is his looks and that is all he has. He was an average student with average marks and, generally, average. He's not even the "I'm smart, but too lazy to apply myself!" student. And, honestly, he's okay with that. He doesn't mind not being the brightest bulb in the box or the shiniest star in the sky because not everyone can be the main character. Some people have to pick up the slack and be the two-time guest-star appearance that gets lost in the episodes of a greater story, but still adds a bit of spice to the whole thing. Maybe. But probably not.
Please answer everything as honestly and as accurately as possible! For the "Character Blurb," please keep it brief and to the point. You can choose to write it as I have or you can jot down a list of your character's key points/traits.
If you have ANY questions on how to fill out the form, please let me know and I will do my best to help you!
COPY AND PASTE AND FILL OUT THIS FORM THEN MESSAGE IT TO ME!
