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.

Robot Name: Evangelion Unit 04
Robot Description: http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_dW7jdVzJn8E/SjE7DTitTaI/AAAAAAAADK4/zzAvFjR2CLk/s400/090627_1.jpg
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evangelion_%28mecha%29#EVA_Unit_04
http://wiki.evageeks.org/Evangelion_Unit-04
Unit 04 was created at NERV's Second branch in Nevada. It was the original test subject for the s2 engines, but, after repeated failures with the s2 engine, it was relocated to NERV's first branch in Tokyo 3 to be used in the fight against the angels until the s2 engines where further developed. Unit 04 contains the Soul of Mrs. Aida, Kensuke's mother, and wife of a prominent scientist on the original Eva project (Kensuke Father). Unit 04 more refine than others, being the 5th model off the line, it has been given greater movement and improved sync sensors compared to the other units. The mother within is more tightly bound, decreasing the chance for it go to 'berserk'. It's on board weaponry include: explosive shoulder spikes (like Unit 2 had in End of Eva), Basic Pallet gun, shield, and Smash Hawk (http://wiki.evageeks.org/Evangelion_Melee_Weapons#Smash_Hawk). Due to Kensuke's lack of manic emotions, he has a very hard time using his AT field, and can only deploy it when he works very hard at it.
Unit 04 cannot Fly, nor swim. Once in water it cannot move at all.
In truth it is not a robot at all, but a strange sort of monster held tightly in its cage of armor, trying to break free. But you already knew this.

Suggested Event List: As kensuke is the lest important pilot, and has no battle's that are important to his plot line, I'm happy to go along with whatever Events other Eva players want to do. I would like to do 'Magma Diver' if we end up Asuka-less.
Sample Post: Kensuke cursed, as put his finger in his mouth, the metallic taste of blood kissed his tongue, he winced and tried to move on from the pain.
On the table before him where trays and trays of tiny plastic bits, which would, in time, come together to form a scale model of fictional giant robot.
But in the process of cutting the pieces from the tray, dear Kensuke had instead, cut off a piece of his finger.
Pulling the wounded digit out of his mouth, he looked at it, hoping it would look better than it felt, but alas, the blood was gushing out of it, the tip completely removed and laying on the table.
So he stuck it back in his mouth, picked up his bag and stepped into his shoes, before heading out the door.
At first he wasn't sure if he should go to the hospital for stitches, or if the bleeding would stop on his own.
Unable to make a decision on the matter, he went to Shinji's apartment, and rung the bell. When Misato answered the door, Kensuke stuck his bleeding hand out to her, careful not to drip on her shoes.
"Miss Misato, do you think I'm going to be alright, or are we going to have to cut it off?" His grin split his face nearly in half, and though the look of shock on Misato's face was genuine, as where her demands they go to the clinic to get him stitches, he couldn't help but laugh.
"I didn't mean to scare you Miss Misato, I just knew if I didn't go to the hospital you might be mad at me, and if I went alone, you might be mad for not reporting to you first." He shrugged, and put his finger back in his mouth, snickering behind it as Misato began to lecture him on safety using tools, or something. Kensuke was to much in awe of her car and her cleavage to listen to much of what she was saying.
"This won't hinder me in the Eva will it?!" Was Kensuke only real concern. The finger would heal, the blood would dry, and the model mech would get built, eventually...
APPROVED
