This is the template that you must use if you are applying for a made-up character. If you have any questions with what to put in a certain section, ask in the c-box. Another member will gladly help if possible. If you still can't get the answer, please pm Vincent or Larxene.
Warning: We don't want to see too many powerful made-ups wandering around since they have yet to any earn experience or trust with us on the site. If we have too many overpowered made-ups, it makes the site feel less and less like a Kingdom Hearts site. So, we don't want any character applied for more powerful than a civilian character like Jack Skellington, for example. Please use your best judgment and be reasonable. We also don't want profiles that are overdone. A character that is overdone is like a "mary sue". It's been used so many times before that anyone who uses it will more than likely not have their application accepted.
When you are finished, place the finished template in the Character Profiles Section to be reviewed by a staff member.

We will be more lenient if you already have a canon character.

o---------------------------------------o
Name:
Place your character's full name here.
Nickname:
Place your character's nicknames or alias.
Age:
How old is your character? Especially if they are a Nobody. You must have an age, unknown is not accepted.
Gender:
Male or Female. Need I say more?
Job:
Tell us what your character does or what their role is like so we can determine how they are grouped. Organization Member, Mercenary, Keyblade Wielder, etc.
Race:
Human, Heartless, Nobody, Viera, etc. No made-up races please. No half-human, half-something else, keep to the theme of the site and chose a known race in the series.
Side:
*Light, Darkness, or Neutral*
Home World:
Where your character is from, such as Hollow Bastion. You must have a homeworld listed. Though, it may be destroyed.
Weapon:
You must state what weapon they have. You can't have machine guns, cannons, or stuff like that. Please make sure it fits in with the plot and with the theme of the site. If you wish to wield a keyblade please PM an Admin first. Also, you may only start out with ONE weapon. This includes not increasing the number of weapons under Powers unless they are temporary.
Powers:
Post five special abilities, categories, at the most. (Pst! The made-up template password is 'Lost Memory', make sure to put this under the Made-Up Template Password category to show you've read the template.) More powers may be requested later on by earning munny.
These powers can be ability classes, or categories, like how "Black Magic" is a class for Fire, Blizzard, etc. Or you can have your own category like illusions or psychic powers. Please use common sense. Make sure that these powers do not make your character permanently invincible or overpowered. The more creative, exceptional, and original in concept that your powers are, the more likely we will accept your abilities. But, if their power is like super strength or changing forms, please include weaknesses or drawbacks to justify it. Even Superman has a weakness.
Also, please add cooldowns to your powers. Post cooldowns mean if your character uses a power, then they must wait X number of posts, or rounds, before they can use that ability again. All active actions, whether defensive or offensive, must have a cooldown. The more powerful the ability, the longer the cooldown should be. Keep in mind that the average battle thread will go for three to four posts/rounds. For powers that stay in battle for more than one turn, such as defensive moves, form changes or summons, you need to state how many turns they are active for, and their Limit Break that will automatically end the form/summon duration. Summons and forms such as Drives and EX Modes do not count as a Action in battle. For example:Fire: A ball of flame sent at the target.
[Cooldown: One post.]
Ifrit: A large fiery demon with the power of fire. (Cooldown to summon again: Four posts.)Meteor Strike: A large fireball Ifrit conjures and fires from his hands, dealing large fire damage to all enemies. Two post cooldown.
Hellfire: Ifrit's Limit Break, he casts the area into a sea of flames, and is automatically dismissed once the attack ends.
[Duration: Three posts. Cooldown: Once per thread.]
Family:
If your character has family, place them here.
- Mother:
- Father:
- Siblings:
Personality:
Write at least two FULL paragraphs about your characters personality. A full paragraph contains FIVE sentences or more in each. You may make a list, but you must explain each item in detail. Please make it the same length as two full paragraphs.
- Likes:
- Dislikes:
- Good personality traits:
- Bad personality traits:
History:
Place at least 3 FULL paragraphs of a history here. All paragraphs being five sentences each, at least. This is the most important part of the application. The history explains everything that makes your character who they are now and explains things about their appearance, personality, and powers. Use common sense and tell everything about your character from a narrative, story-telling point of view, not just from your character's viewpoint. We don't want to hear that your character cannot remember what happened to them, since character plot elements need to be approved by staff here. Use detail and describe important events that shaped your character, within reason, please. (Note about other universe canon character face claims as OCs: Please try to avoid writing in their canon history here, as it is not creative and original compared to something you have made up on your own, which is what you're aiming for to get this character accepted.)
Physical Description:
This is the area where you need to describe what your character looks like or provide an image. You must have at least two FULL paragraphs, five sentences in each paragraph. If you do decide to provide an image, please don't have one that stretches the page. If you do not, you must add the following: Hair, Eyes, Body, Height, Weight, etc.
Quotes:
You may place quotes that your character says. Remember, it's not that hard to make up a few fitting quotes for your character!
Role-playing Sample:
This is where you post a role-playing sample for an Admin to read and evalute. Remember that you are trying to impress the admins! Your sample must be from the perspective of the character you are applying for, like an audition. You may not use a role-playing sample from other application. You must post at least three full paragraphs. *Note*- Five Sentences per paragraph.
Password:
Must get this from reading the Rules.
Made-Up Template Password:
This password is needed to prove that you've read the template and have edited your profile according to the rules and guidelines written within. You will find it hidden somewhere important among this explanation of the template content itself.
Other Characters:
Do you play anyone else on the site? If so, list them. If not, say this is your first character.
How'd you find us?:
This is where you may list how you found Confused Memories. Did you find us through the topsite? An affiliation on another site? An Advertisement from another site? Did someone refer you? This field is optional.
