SRWUG@ Applications
Application Rules
- Before you can post or comment with a character in either comm, you must apply and be accepted here.
- Each player is be limited to 6 characters. However, provided a player has six characters and maintained good activity for all of them, they may request a seventh slot. In the event they drop a character though, they will have to request the seventh slot again. More details on the seventh slot can be found here.
- Furthermore, after introducing a new canon to the RP, each player will have to wait at least one full activity cycle before they may do so again.
- When posting an app, please put the character name and whether the character was reserved in the comment subject
- You may not app characters who are Reserved, Taken or serve a primarily antagonistic role without working something out with the mods first - please read those two entries first, along with the FAQ if you're new.
- The template is below, note that depending on what kind of character you are apping you may be able to ignore some portions of the template.
- You must fill out all sections marked REQUIRED; other sections are optional or may not be relevant to your character.
- Please note that the Unit/Flagship sections are required if you want to have one, and should be written in your own words. Supplemental links to wikis or MAHQ are fine, but only as supplements; we need to know you can play your unit in combat just like we need to know you can play your character in RP.
- Before writing the app, it is extremely important that you familiarize yourself with the world of UG@ and read the wiki. The world is not a blank slate for you to work with; it is a specific post-apocalyptic setting with a large amount of predetermined backstory and as a result, there are some things which simply will not be found in it
- If you want to app an OC (original character), please view the section below the app template.
- Any character for which canon review would be difficult and/or require a large amount of money (such as video games and untranslated works, fan translations are usually okay) requires a full write up, using the rules outlined for Original Characters below.
- For notes on each specific section click here.
- Due to UG@ entering endgame, limitations on applying new canons come into effect. These affect only already-established players who have characters in the game, not new players. Details are here.
The Application (Copy and paste this, then fill it out.)
Original Characters
- The most important thing to remember when designing your original character: your OC can't do everything. As well, be reasonable with your character's powers: the "power level" here is pretty high, but try to be self-consistent at least.
- Your original character must be detailed enough that we can run a game with them, and show us that you have put enough thought into the character that you know them as well as you would know any other character that someone else made up. While we don't necessarily expect you to not make up anything on the fly while RPing your OC, we do need them to have enough definition in the first place that they don't become your personal "whatever is convenient at the time" spouting device.
- The above also means we reserve the right to ask for longer or more detailed Personality and/or Background section, simply to make sure we have a full idea of the character without canon review to fall back on.
- The mech/battleship and capabilities/resources sections are just as, if not more, important than background and personality, if they're applicable to your character. Also, a physical description of its appearance is highly encouraged.
- If your OC is written using plot devices from another canon, please make sure you ask the player's playing from those canons first. Some things are assumed to be part of the setting as opposed to any particular canon, so being a Coordinator, Newtype, Psychodriver or what not is generally okay so long as you aren't a super special example. Anything more specific, such as being a member of such and such organization or having been at a historical event definitely needs permission.
- You need an event list if you want events, and your event list needs to be a little more detailed than for a canon character for the same reasons as personality and background.
- The sample post section may take several forms for non-OCs, but for original characters we ask for a post on
testrun_box. This is to ensure you have a good grip on your character's personality and how to roleplay them.
Sorry for the wait! Your queen has arrived~! 1/2

Character Name: Cynthia Lane
Source Canon: Cynthia Lane
Community Tag: Cynthia Lane
Notes: (Assuming we don't get a Sara, may end up as a love interest to Gainer. May also end up as a token Loli to Char.)
Background: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overman_King_Gainer
Cynthia Lane is the biological daughter of a great Overman pilot, and the adopted daughter of Siberian Railway Head, Kids Munt. She was raised to be an overman pilot, and was the selected candidate from a group of other pilots trained to be Kids' bodyguards. She was also trained to treat Overmans like a video game, due to the similar control system, and is second only to Gainer Sanga when it comes to games. She enjoys playing around in her Dominator and sweets, and dislikes incompitent pilots and following orders. She's loyal to her adopted father to a fault, and has a grandmother, Martina Lane, who
was frozen by the overdevilvanished mysteriously. And she's Gainer's rival, though the two of them have never met in person. There's not really much more than that.Personality: "OK! Let's have some fun, Dominator!"
Cynthia's personality is childish and a bit psychotic, though this is part is due to how she was raised. Led to believe that everything is like a game, she fails to grasp that people die when she kills them, and thus delights in brutal and flashy kills. She grows bored of fighting lesser mooks and constantly seeks out fun opponents. Though her loyalties will keep her on any mission she's assigned, if she sees an oppourtunity to have some real fun, she'll stop toying with targets and quickly finish them so she can go play with them. And by play, of course, I mean shoot them down.
"Hey, I'll get you next time, Game Champ!"
Cynthia's also very competitive, especially when it comes to Gainer. She hates losing, but is a good sport about it; each loss is something for her to learn from and try to improve. She'll keep attacking a goal until she reaches it, eventually surpassing Gainer's win streak while he's busy saving Exodus, and even trying to take him out in real life, in real Overmen! All in good fun, of course ^_^.
"I...I did that...?"
But this comes at the price of realization. Her whole world is shattered as she learns the reality of real life, shutting herself inside Dominator's cockpit and gaining a new outlook on life. Did she really kill all her fellow pilots? Is she nothing but a cold blooded murderer? Did Kids know all of this? Suddenly, she's not sure of herself, and this weakness leads to her eventual capture and manipulation by the overdevil.
"They deserve to all freeze, and become beautiful ice sculptures in the Overdevil's perfect world..."
...and this is her brainwashed and crazy. Overdevil's in full control, and she's locked in its cockpit. Can the power of love prevail and free her from her icy prison?
Capabilities and Resources: Cynthia is the Siberian Railway's Ace. She's deployed to deal with large-scale threats such as London IMA or Mechabeast attacks or the like. She's technically from an enemy faction, and though Kids keeps her on a need to know basis, she knows enough about most high rank officers and Overmen in SR.
Hopefully not too small... 2/2
Robot Description: A small red(pink?) and yellow egg, with three green dots. This is the core of Dominator, though it's able to transfigure its body into different shapes, such as arms, legs, blades, clubs, and tentacles. It can also shoot energy blasts. The transfiguration skill really allows the Dominator to alter its appearance at will, and when it's sent into Overskill, it glows gold and gains unreal transformations, such as turning into a giant flan. Oh, and it can fly, presumably with Photon Mats.
Terrain Stats: Land:A
Air:A
Sea:A
Space:B
Upgrades: None to think of, but you can be sure Cynthia will gain new ideas for attacks from watching other mechas.
Job: Enemy Ace
Suggested Event List: I forsee no events that wouldn't already be in the King Gainer Event List.
Sample Post: "All right, that's 10 enemies in a row, that's a free play!"
The pink-haired girl grinned, popping another candy into her mouth as the cockpit rolled around her, evading another shot from the cannon fodder on the ground. She smirked and returned fire. Stationary targets weren't even worth her time! Their point value was low, anyway. Ah, but what was that? Zooming in on a black painted mech, trimmed with red and gold. The way it dodged every shot fired at it! The accuracy of each shot! There was a beauty in the way it overrode every move its opponents made...and it would be a great for her score!
She fires a few shots, not aiming for the mech, just drawing its attention. She smirks as she closes in, blades drawn as she attempts to melee!
"Not so fast now, are ya?!"
...and she's shocked as the mech sidesteps, grabbing her blade and sticking its gun to her cockpit. The game's music quickly changes as her mass-produced mech explodes, giving her a game over screen. All that work, down the drain! She'd underestimated that thing's speed...
Taking off her VR helmet, and annoyed at the game, she returned to what she was previously doing: dodging fire from some noobs in Artillery units. She was in no mood to play with them any more, and she activates her Dominator's overskill. Overkill, sure, but she needed to vent.
"It's game over for you guys! Let's finish this with style, Dominator!"
Small edit
APPROVED!
