Here is the character application for this site. Just fill it out and post it in a new thread for your character in this board, and a staff member will move it to the appropriate accepted sub-board once it is completed. Every aspect of this bio form is required (with the exceptions of code name and powers if your character is human). Please note that if you have a W.I.P. bio up for more than two weeks without it being modified at all, the staff will take it upon themselves to PM all the bio information to the account and delete the thread. If you have any questions, feel free to PM Nightcrawler or Gigabyte.
We urge you to also check out the Group Statistics post below to find out what is encouraged or banned at the time of your application. The Face Claims and Power Claims are also good spots to stop by before posting your application.
We want you to play in our game with us. Please remember this when the staff PM your account with modification requests and suggestions. Because of the nature of our role-play, the staff may be picky about the details of the biographies, particularly the powers and weaknesses of a mutant character. We will always help you to improve the bio to reach the site's standards so everyone can enjoy role-playing with the characters on the site.

[div align="center"][font size="6"]FIRST AND LAST NAME[/font]
[font size="5"](codename)[/font]
[img src="IMG URL HERE -- no bigger than 300x400 please!" width="300" height="400"]
gender (if non-binary, please indicate preferred pronouns in parenthesis) | birth month & day (current age) | sexuality | group | occupation/grade | play-by[/div]
[div align="justify"][font size="3"]Description:[/font] Physically describe your character -- their height, eyes, hair, scales, clothes, etc.
[font size="3"]Personality:[/font] How does your character normally behave around friends, enemies, strangers?
[font size="3"]Powers:[/font] If human, please disregard. Ideally, a super-powered being's abilities all tie into a central idea. The other general rule is, the more abilities he or she has, the less effective the abilities are on their own. For younger mutants, it is optional to also include a paragraph for how their powers could grow/evolve down the line, which can help for further plot and character development purposes.
[font size="3"]Weaknesses:[/font] Everyone must have a weakness. We would like each character to have as many weaknesses as they have abilities. Make a couple of weaknesses have to do directly with the character's powers.
[font size="3"]Skills/Hobbies:[/font] Any other likes or abilities that do not have to do with their mutant powers can go here.
[font size="3"]History:[/font] Whether your character remembers or not, everyone has a history. Who are your character's parents, siblings, significant others? If a mutant, when did your character's powers emerge? How did your character first react with his or her powers? Please remember that this site is a future au of the cartoon X-Men: Evolution with the Earth-616 comic universe peppered in if you are adding any canon history plot points for your character.
[font size="3"]First Appearance Scene:[/font] Please provide a brief description as to how your character will enter the game (such as, having an x-man find and recruit the character, the character's first day in school, etc.). The admin and/or fellow members will create a personalized first thread for your character to join to welcome you into the game. [b]This is required only for your first character[/b]; while it's encouraged (because who doesn't want a thread catered for their character?), members will probably be comfortable enough creating or jumping into already created threads with their second characters and onward.[/div]
