APPLICATION EXPLANATION
OOC INFORMATION
IC INFORMATION
SAMPLES
OTHER
Player: Simple enough.
Age: Holly Heights is a 14+ roleplay. Make sure you are above this age before applying.
Personal Journal:putithereplease
Contact 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: The name of the canon, as specific as possible. For example Final Fantasy VII not just Final Fantasy.
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 stated 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.
Abilities: 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 any community or musebox. 18+ threads are permitted to be linked.
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 any community or musebox. 18+ threads are permitted to be linked.
OTHER
Housing Request?: If you already have a place you want to live or a person you'd wish to live with, please say so here.
Did you read the rules & FAQ?: Please say yes or I swear to God I will reject you.
Would you like your application to be unscreened?: Y or N

APPLICATIONS - SCREENED ( CLOSED )
this means they close at about 11:59 PM CST on the 7th
do not post applications until the subject says OPEN
APPLICATION REMINDERS;
LOOK HERE FIRST If you would like your application to be screened please put your application here! If you want to put your application on the unscreened post, put it here. Before applying make sure you read the application explanation! Do not link applications. Post them in comments! Please fill out every portion, except possibly the orientation section if it does not apply to you and the other section since it is not necessary unless you need it. Please do NOT directly embed images. It stretches my screen, makes things harder to load, and it usually isn't aesthetically pleasing to have a huge image stuck in the middle of an app. DO NOT DO IT. ALL CHARACTERS 18+ MUST FILL OUT THE ORIENTATION SECTION THIS DOES NOT MEAN ONE WORD. IT MEANS AS IT STATES IN THE APPLICATION EXPLANATION. Only one sample must be linked. Please do not link two samples. If you are putting a housing request in please include a number. If you do not, then it will not be considered. The reason being is that simply putting a name does not help me if the character has not yet apped either. Discuss it together and find a house to put yourself in that fits with your slotting and preferences. Please make sure you run your app sections (personality/samples) through a word counter. I use this one! If they don't comply with the minimum word counts, then no dice. The age rule is non-negotiable. You can beg me to put your 14 looking character who is actually a gazillion in a kid slot all you want but it will not happen. You do not need to reply to your acceptance logged in as the journal. You just need to tell me the journal name so I can accept it to the communities.

ABOUT APPLYING;
SCREENED & UNSCREENED
THE APPLICATION
LOOK HERE FIRST To keep things tidier, there are now two application posts! One for screened applications and one for unscreened applications. Simply click on the post to take you to the post you'd like to put your application on. Please read over all the setting information, the FAQ, the rules, and the application explanation before posting your application. You must be 14+ to play here. Make sure you read all of the following as well plus the application reminders on the application pages. If you have read all of the above, then your application and character should conform to the rules, your samples should follow the premise of the game (if they are from an in game setting; non-in game settings are fine), and the formatting and posting and application should conform to the application explanation. If it does not do this, you will be given a revision request. Please check for grammatical and spelling errors! An app with too many may be asked to be revised. As the rules state you may app 2 characters per round, with a total of 5 characters in all. This of course means one round you may only app 1 character if you already have 4 in game. You may only app 1 character per canon and 2 characters per sister series. You may not app characters from the same universe, though. NEW | TO BE ENFORCED AS OF 2014 In order for a returning player to put in another app, they must have completed AC the previous month. This means a full AC, no strikes. Also, you may not apply for a character you let idle in the previous AC until the next round. Don't forget to put your subject title as CHARACTER NAME | SERIES | RESERVED/NOT RESERVED

JOBS
WORK AND YOU Let's make one thing very clear. The NPCs, while being pretty brainless and flighty, are very protective of their place in Holly Heights. Who knows why. They love it here, I guess. You should too by the way! That being said, there aren't too many job opportunities for a character unless they want to make one for themselves or if you want to make one for them. Making one is the equivalent of them running their own business. They are free to make any kind of business they wish, be it a flower shop or adult entertainment, whatever you'd like that to entail. This means that they are taking the initiative to start their own business and they will run it themselves, or with others if that's what you'd like to go for. The process is quite simple. They decide to start their own business and suddenly, there it is, fully functioning in the Gate of their choice (either the Pleasure or Shopping). How convenient! Your friendly, neighbourhood landlord knows more about your character than they think he does. If a character wouldn't want to run their own business but still work, that's okay too! You can make whatever business you want for them without having them own the place. Characters can just browse the bulletin board or the working district and see a help wanted sign in the window. However you want to make it work! Please note that once you make a building without having a character own it, there's a chance that someone else might want their character to own it or work there. Permission must always be asked from the original owner, and that can be something done via the player or via a mod contacting the player. THERE IS AN EXCEPTION Because most jobs that can be taken from the mall are jobs that can be made to your characters liking themselves, there aren't preset jobs for them to take. However, this is not true for those that wish to teach school. School teachers may apply on the locations page, and will be listed under each school as well as what subject they wish to teach. This applies for all four schools. |

MAILBOXES
MAILBOXES There is no post office as of yet. To send letters to be received on other characters mailbox posts, here's how they work in game. Simply write whatever you wish to sent on a piece of paper or what have you as well as the number of the house of the person you want to send it to. Place it in your mailbox, close the lid. It will immediately be sent to the appropriately numbered house. One can also place fitting items in the mailbox and have them sent, as long as the house number is written on them or fastened to them in some form or fashion. This can range from gifts to the carefully crafted pipe bomb, so be careful! When a character receives mail in their box, their mailbox flag will go up so that they know they have received mail. When you send someone a letter (i.e. comment on their mailbox post) it is assumed their reply is being sent back to you, even though the thread will continue on on their post. It basically just tells who initiated the mail and then so on and so forth. |
