Rules of the Playground

[trelali.livejournal.com]

WTF Mate?

You know how sometimes you start a new RPG, MU* or LJ or GJ or somesuch, and you really get into it? You choose a character - from your own mind or from another canon - and through the game, that character changes. S/he grows and changes and becomes something extremely different from what they started out as.

Here are the options:

1. Your game lives, thrives, and is totally, awesomely perfect. You truly lead a charmed online life, you lucky dog, you!
2. Your game dies and you are left with a bazillion ideas that will forever go unfulfilled. :( Woe!
3. Your game is going strong and everything's great, but sometimes you talk to another player and you get into a conversation about your characters and all the WHAT IFs there could be...

Aside from those who are living it up with #1 (seriously, I hope you realize how lucky you are), this is not the place for you. Then again, those who completely identify with #2 and 3? This is definitely the place for you.

This is the Sandbox. You bring the toys, we hand you the boards and nails. You build the playground.

Rules

There are few. After all, you're building the playground and the toys are already yours. But there's always that one kid who just doesn't understand whose toys are whose.

-You can play any character from any canon from any game here. However, If you were playing on the very successful thisisnotareallink RPG as Detective John Munch from Law & Order: Special Victims Unit but you want to sandbox as thisisnotareallink's Bova from Space Cases, you will need to get that original player's permission. If you want to play a canon Bova with no affiliation to thisisnotareallink, you're good to go!

-Tag your entries. What character is played by what username (i.e., a tag where I'm playing apharsites' Sokka would say "Apharsites!Sokka - trelali") is required. Any other way you want to tag it, though (romance, drama, horror) is up to you.

...yeah, that's it for now. :D I may add to this later, but you'll always be updated.

Application

This is going to be the easiest application of your life. If I'm wrong, I will give you something. Like... an intarweb cookie. OR a gold star!!

Name:
Email/AIM: This is so other people can contact you for scenes. Not necessary if you'd like to use this for a specific group of people - just say so here.
Character:
Original Canon:
Game Canon (if any): This is where milliways_bar or transmigration9 or somesuch would be listed.

Basically, unless you start the application with "I'm a crazy murderer," you're in.

Send your apps to trelali@gmail.com and you're done!

pardon, but just FYI

I was looking at your game's profile page. The link that's included after the question "how to apply?" doesn't lead here? It goes to a community post with screencap downloads, no game info:

Sorry about that! It's what I get for not double-checking my copy-pasted stuff. :P Fixed now!
