OOC :: APPLICATIONS

APPLICATION


➤ The Sanctum is a game that accepts the following:
• Canon Characters
• Original Characters
• Fan Characters. Provided they have NO relationship to the characters already established in canon. For example, a Homestuck Fan Troll would be alright but the character cannot be directly related to say: Karkat.
• Fan based AUs - such as modern adaptations, genderbends, etc. We also allow canonmashes - combining two existing fandoms together as AUs (For example: A Hunger Games AU of Sansa Stark). We advise to strongly consider how the events of those particular universes would affect your character.
• Silent Protagonists.
• Characters with CR/Memories from other games.
• Characters who are native to the setting. ( AUs and OCs )
• Any combination of the above.


➤ You will be allotted THREE DAYS for revisions. Failure to do so will result in an automatic declineApplications that have been declined will also have to wait ONE MONTH before reapplying.

➤ Applications and samples can be both linked or pasted into the comments.

➤ Because of the delicate nature of some events that occur within game, you must be over 18 years old to apply.

➤ When posting your app, we prefer it in the body of the comments, and with the character's name, canon, and whether they were reserved or not reserved in the subject line.

➤ Go ahead and re-use an old app to fill in the formatting below. Applications submitted with alternative formatting will not be processed.

➤ Everything else will be detailed within the application, feel free to ask us questions should the need arise.

IN-CHARACTER INFORMATION


Name: Sarah Lang aka Wrath aka Jane Doe aka ???? (for the purposes of the application, I will be referring to her as Wrath)

Fandom: Native OC

Age: 42

Canon Point: Current (native OC)

Original Universe or Alternate Universe?


Personality: Short version: Manic pixie dream murder machine.

Wrath is an intensely creative and generally cheerful and optimistic person who has a lot of deep seated, cold rage. She can be extremely hedonistic because physically intense experiences are easier for her to remember. And she'd like to have more pleasurable experiences to balance out all of the pain that she's experienced after a 26 year military career. Wrath is also an incredibly lonely person; she's started to have romantic relationships and friendships in the last 26 years, but before any of those can become terribly deep she tends to lose the memories. The only real constant she's had in her life has been Whiskey, but she finds being around him difficult at times even because she always feels like there are things she should be remembering that she can't, and it upsets her.

In the bone, Wrath is an artist and expresses herself best with art. She's highly emotional and does best when she can live in the moment and communicate in ways that aren't just words. Art also gives Wrath a way to express herself outside of terms of remembered experience, and things tend to come out in her art subliminally; she thinks the keys to her past and present are in her paintings. To a certain extent, art has become an act of defiance for her, because it's something that can't be taken away from her. Even if she can't remember her own name, she still remembers how to paint. She can still find herself in painting even if she can't find herself in her own head.

Unless she's just been in for compliance, Wrath is very aware that there are major holes in her memory. There's also an undeniable bitterness to her that creeps out from behind her generally cheerful demeanor, because she knows she's lost a lot that she'll never get back, and while she tries to just keep moving forward, sometimes that's not entirely possible. The memory loss is one source of her deep-seated anger, knowing that she has nothing of her own that can't be taken from her. There's also a certain amount of hopelessness there, because she knows that she can't fight against it, though it's a matter for question if that helplessness is interior to her or something put in her to keep her compliant. But the conclusion she's come to is to keep driving forward. She can't remember the past, but she wants to try to build a new life for herself moving forward. She's also aware that she's trapped in a cycle in that way, because every time she starts building a new, solid interior life, she's generally about to have it all knocked down. That doesn't stop her from trying; she just tries to find new ways to focus on the now, to live each moment fully, and try to gain experiences that she can keep, even if only in a subconscious way.

This means that Wrath tends to not bother thinking to the past, and sees no point in planning for the future. She's in a state where all that exists is now, and she wants to live each moment to its fullest extent. This is why she fights the way she does, with no holds barred and with no real regard for herself. Even if she gets severely injured, that's a way that she will be able to keep at least part of that fight with her. It would be a very sad existence if she weren't someone with a optimistic bent, but she's doing the best she can. She has her people, she takes care of them, she lives each moment as if its her last, and doesn't take anything for granted in that sense.


Is this character immune? NA, native

Background:
Wrath is from an old military family of district three. She had three older brothers, all of whom joined the army. She joined the army herself at the age of 16 when the dysthrophe was on the upswing and they needed every able body they could get. These were desperate times. She ended up in the Ghost Wolves and was assigned to Envy Platoon. She was on the same field as her oldest brother, the lieutenant of Wrath Platoon, when he was killed by dysthropes. She managed to get everyone pulled back together and did a tactically sound retreat, which garnered her a field promotion to lieutenant of Wrath Platoon.

The rest of her immediate family were killed during the plague, leaving the army and then the militia as Wrath's only support system. When the ports became a thing and regular upgrades became required, Wrath and most of the other lieutenants as well as some of the best and brightest soldiers were brought in to a pilot program that they thought was going to help with defense of the dome. It was, unfortunately for the soldiers, more an opportunity for Bifrons to try to develop its coding capabilities and push the bounds of personality and mind control. (Insert creepy justifications about creating perfect soldiers to kill dystropes here.) Most of the other soldiers in the program had psychotic breaks and were quietly disappeared, or committed suicide. Due to some quirk of personality, Wrath managed to survive. But not unscathed.

To add to the ground work already laid, Wrath began to distrust Bifrons because she knew something was wrong even if she couldn't clarify what. She did her best to protect the soldiers under the command from compliance assessments by taking their places. The extensive coding work done on Wrath began to create large memory holes, where she couldn't remember anything at all, or had conflicting memories. The Compliance Adjunct on her case quickly noticed that Wrath was far more compliant--and useful--immediately after assessments, but would become less compliant and progressively more confused and violent towards Bifrons personnel as she was exposed to more reminders of her past. Concerns were raised and eventually a recode was pushed to simply erase her non-military past from public memory, including any identity she'd ever had other than Wrath.

This seemed to settle her as a person, though she was still taken in for regular compliance assessments. Wrath focused on being a good lieutenant, and privately on her art. She was aware of the holes in her memory and at least on the surface accepted the justification that it was due to the repetitive head trauma she'd received in the service. She found a different sort of solace in her art, trying to find in painting what she knew she'd lost.

A major change in the course of Wrath's life was caused, however, when a party of Immune decided to invade the Hub. Wrath was summoned to the Hub to stop the Immune. While she managed to take out North, Malcolm, and York, Shepherd escaped, and then Carolina threw her out the window of the 99th story. Somehow, Wrath managed to survive the fall, though she was pretty much meat pulp bagged in armor by the time she hit the ground. She was taken to the hospital, pieced back together by Callsign Whiskey, and has since been in traction, slowly recovering.


Other Notables: Moving forward, Wrath will be mustered out of the militia. Due to her injuries, which are just another layer of damage on top of a body already severely compromised, Callsign Whiskey has determined that further strenuous physical service will kill her, and after the damage done to her ports and mind, another compliance session should hurt her badly or cause her mind to finally snap. The best solution to these problems would be getting her out of the militia entirely, though it's likely Wrath will not be told about this until she's about to be released from the hospital. Wrath will have to figure out a new name for herself, adjust to civilian life, and figure out who she is now that she can no longer be a soldier.

Wrath will also be physically handicapped; she'll need to walk with a cane (probably a sword stick for self-protection) or be in a hover chair. She's got a lot of augmentations and enhancements, which is the only way she is actually even alive; that's all that's holding her together. Wrath is physically a rather small person, but she is very dense in the sense that most of her bones have been replaced with composites now, and she's had to have muscle augmentation to compensate for that. She's also had her left eye recently replaced with a bionic one, and already had an artificial left arm and right leg.


Inventory: Sword stick, a lot of paint and a storage unit full of paintings.

SAMPLES


NETWORK SAMPLE:
All right, so… hi. They finally gave me some fudgeing glasses.

…wait, what was that? I didn't say fudge. I said fudge.

Fudge.

Fudge?

FUDGE!

Whiskey you fudgeing bad man this isn't funny! Did you put a fudgeing net nanny on my glasses? I only ordered strippers once.

…twice. Just twice! Twice doesn't count!

Oh goddang it.

[Frustrated sound.]

All I wanted to say is hi. I'm Wrath. And I'm really, really bored. Movies are okay, but you can't… you can't talk to them, you know? Well you can, but then someone starts making faces and writing notes on your chart and it's not like they answer back.

So what I'm really just trying to say is that I'm bored. And if anyone wanted to drop by, that would be… that would be really nice. I promise I won't bite. Vicious lies, all of it. We could talk about… pies. I like pies. And impressionist landscapes. That sounds fun, right?
