putitherepleaseContact Info: Please give us at least one other means of contacting you.
Other Characters: You may remove this section if this will be your first character in game.
IC INFORMATION
Characters Name: Western order, por favor.
Age: In years, if possible.
Canon: Links to you canon's Wikipedia entry or it's own wiki or at least something to tell us what he hot haps are.
Canon Point: Exact page numbers and panels aren't necessary, but being specific is good.
Species: Note that any species other than human will become human. Animals, aliens, even human like beings. You're going to become homo sapiens like the rest of us.
Gender: Both physical and mental.
Orientation: FILL THIS OUT IF YOU HAVE A CHARACTER THAT IS OVER 18, NO BUTS. Here at Holly Heights, we don't discriminate against anyone's orientations. That being said, if your character is gay, we aren't going to make them take a wife when housing plans are given. Gay marriage is completely legal. Please give us a short and simple reason you think they are gay/straight/bi/etc if they don't have an explicitly state sexuality. Please keep it short, though. We do know it's tempting to tl;dr about things like this. Long story short, the real question is Would your character be more comfortable with a wife, husband, or either?, so that we know what houses to place them in.
History: Links will suffice, but please write it out if the links are insufficient.
Appearance: A picture will be sufficient, but we'd never turn down a written explanation.
Personality: This should be the biggest part of the application unless your history is written out. There should at least be 3 paragraphs OR 300+ words. No links. Using old app sections for this AS LONG AS THEY ARE YOUR OWN is reasonable.
Abilites: Please note that in this domestic paradise, powers will be taken. Will you get them back? If you behave, perhaps. Please list any special powers your character has and any natural talents that they possess. This can range from flying to having nice handwriting.
Other: Anything else you'd like to include? Put it here.
SAMPLES
First Person: "Action brackets", this will be your cell phone, webcam, and text related communicating. At least eight sentences is required. You may link from a musebox, a meme thread, or a previous roleplays tag for this section. When linking singular threads, however, make sure that they are at least 10 comments long from YOUR character to accurately judge. Can be taken from
![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png){kind=small}
testrun_box.Third Person: This is more like a log entry and action related. It should could more "he/she" than "I". Please give us at least two paragraphs OR 10+ lines or text. You may link to a musebox post or previous roleplay log for this but only if you didn't link for your first person and vice versa. Also remember that this isn't fanfiction and should act like a log post would . Just rambling on like a novel isn't writing a log. If linking, please make sure that there are at least 5 responses from your character to accurately judge. Can be taken from

LOTUS | 999 | RESERVED
Characters Name: Lotus ( Hazuki Kashiwabara )
Age: 40
Canon Point: Post true-end ; while riding in the car.
Species: Human
Gender: Female
Orientation: Heterosexual. She has children (that were naturally born..), and openly flirts with some of the males in the game.
History: boop.
Appearance: bleep.
Personality:
At first glance, Lotus seems like a pretty unlikable woman. She’s rather smug and arrogant, seems very selfish and self-serving, demanding, lazy, prone to anger, and always seems like she knows more than she’s letting on. She’s cryptic in a way, and doesn’t release information much. Truly, she comes off very abrasive, and tends to make you think she only cares about herself.
Actually, most of this isn’t true. While she is smug, she isn’t selfish or self serving at all. ‘Lazy’ also wouldn’t be a very appropriate word to describe her. Instead, Lotus is a very logical thinker. She tries not to allow her emotions to get in the way of her decisions, and is very decisive. She has a clear way of thinking and in the game, is trying to save as many people as possible, even though it seems like she’s only trying to save herself.
She’s actually very caring, too. She doesn’t admit it, but she wants all of the people trapped on the boat to survive. She doesn’t want anyone to die. This is shown in the true ending, when she’s willing to sacrifice herself so the others can escape, and when they’re trapped in the torture room and she volunteers to sit in the electric chair to solve the puzzle.
Lotus puts on a façade of moodiness, but in actuality, she’s very soft inside. She’s just as human as the other characters, and is just as scared, confused, and worried, though it seems like it isn’t affecting her at all. She tries to keep in high spirits and just act normal, hoping that it rubs off on the others and calms their nerves.
What comes off as laziness and reluctance is actually false. Instead, Lotus doesn’t do things when she knows there’s nothing she can do. When Santa, Junpei, and June get trapped in the freezer, after tugging on the door for a minute, she sits back and waits, as she knows there’s nothing more she can do. It would be foolish to waste her energy when she’s aware the door won’t open by conventional means.
All in all, Lotus is actually a very good person. First and foremost, she’s a mother, and she shows this side to the others late in the game, being concerned about their well-being and the problems at hand. While she does have a fiery attitude, she’s in no way a bad person, and only wants for as many people as possible to escape from the boat. She has a playful sense of humor and her motherly instincts kick in a lot, spurring motivational speeches and insightful reasoning from her experience.
Abilites: Normal human. She is a skilled hacker, however.
Other: She has.. a penchant for dressing outlandishly, like a dancer..

First Person:
This is some type of communication device, right?
[Lotus is tapping on the screen. Hm. Yes, it seems to be on. .. Lotus does not look pleased.]
Good, it seems to be working. Now... somebody better tell me what the hell is going on! I don’t need this again! Ugh, when I find you, you’re dead, you hear me? Whoever you are. I’m sure you’re listening, aren’t you?
[Her face shifts from a scowl to just an impatient frown.]
And what’s with the insane woman in the house I woke up in? Calling herself my mom, ha! She’s probably the same a- [… Nevermind. All of a sudden, Lotus looks even more annoyed.]
Anyways, someone needs to give me some answers. I have things to do. … and people to see, too. [For just a moment, Lotus look sad. She promptly cuts off the gear.]
Third Person:
“Dammit! I can’t get a single moment to relax here, can I?”
Lotus obviously was feeling well. Her vigor restored, she had set out on route 29, ready to proceed with her “Pokemon Journey” or whatever. Though she was a bit reluctant, she didn’t seem to have a choice, and the best course of action seemed to be meeting up with the others. She was relieved she knew a few people here… yet disturbed by her history with said people.
Lotus had just discovered that Pokemon battling was not exactly her forte. Her pinsir had been downed by a creepy rat thing, and she had no intention of fighting the thing off herself. Rats were disgusting, after all. She hadn’t yet realized she’d have to camp out for the next few nights…
“So what am I supposed to do now? Sit here and twiddle my thumbs?” Lotus sighed. The rat thing had run away, so it was just her and her unconscious bug thing now. “I guess I could go back to that woman… but… she’s not all right in the head… hm. Plus, she’s probably the same…” … Suddenly, a heavier sigh. This one sounded almost sad.
“I don’t have a choice, do I? C’mon, you. We’re going back.” … No response. The bug was completely out cold. “… No. I refuse to carry you. Or touch you, for that matter.” She knew she was basically talking to a brick wall, but she had to keep some hope, right? Sighing once more, she neared the thing, and cautiously threw it over her back. “U-Ugh..”
