Application
Application Rules:
-Certain characters canonically have great influence over dimensional travel (such as Yuuko from xxxHolic or one of the Data Integration Thought Entity humanoid interfaces from Haruhi Suzumiya, i.e. Yuki and Ryoko) will have a greater influence in the setting than normal, or are just extremely high-powered and can potentially affect the game in major ways. Playing one often requires some special plot integration, and require a player to have established themselves by playing another character before they will be accepted.
-AU settings are generally allowed on a case-to-case basis, but no more than one of the same character can be a permanent member of Planeocracy. If the AU is significantly different and established (such as the Genderbend of Haruhi Suzumiya) then it is generally allowed, as the characters are different enough from the main source to be distinct. Apping an AU character uses the standard application procedure, but if the AU doesn't meet our requirements, we may deny them on that basis. Here are the qualifications for if your AU is acceptable:
1. Significantly different from the source material. Minor tweaks to history and/or personality don't make an AU different enough to really be worth accepting for us. For an AU to be accepted it needs to have something major different to differentiate it from the canon.
2. Internally consistent. In most cases you'll be coming up with the AU yourself, so you need to make sure it all makes sense within the setting. So, if something changes, the whole setting obviously has to change as a result, and we need to know how.
3. This isn't absolutely necessary, but if at all possible the character will look at least somewhat different from their canon counterpart. This is primarily to help differentiate if we have both.
If you are thinking of apping an AU of a character, please get a hold of all potential castmates as well as any person playing the same character (if this is applicable). This is required for your application to be accepted.
-Original characters are permitted, they use the same application form but require far more detail as far as background and setting. If they are a part of an existing canon, they cannot have any ties to actual canonical characters or visible connection to events (attributing events in-canon to the character that are otherwise unattributed may be permissible but is generally discouraged). As with canon characters, you are limited to two OCs, even if the OCs are from different universes. Planeocracy canon originals can use any of the settings posted in the setting information post that specifically say they are open, and must conform to the general concepts of the world. It is HIGHLY advised to speak to the mod team before making the character, these characters can be rejected automatically if they do not follow the general concepts of the established world.
-You may only have one application in queue at a time. If you would like to submit a second app, you must wait until your first has been processed.
Application Template:
Looked over the community? Brushed up on all 31,561,021 Confuto Ordinatio rules and regulations? Filled out all your forms in triplicate? Looks like you're ready to get that Gate Key! Just fill out the following form and submit it to the Executive Subcommittee of Other-Planar Affairs! That Gate Key should be yours in 5-7 business days!
The following is an alternate form that can be used in place of a musebox sample post. It takes the form of an application and interview as if the character were applying for a job. Respond to the questions in-character, if you or your character doesn't know what they're asking for indicate it in some way. The character can lie if doing so is in character, but indicate they are doing it by writing "[LIE]" before the answer to the question.

Re: Chika app 2/2
Chika app expanded personality.
Chika is a kind hearted young woman who hates to see fighting happening but hates to see injustice in the world happening even more. While she'd almost always look for a peaceful solution to conflicts that are going on, she will not hesitate to defend herself and others if there is no other choice. She's also loves cute adorable things, as when she first saw Piyomon when he was a baby Puwamon when she was a child, her first instinct was the cuddle and hug and take care of him. And then she did it again with more baby digimon when they fell to the Real World when the two worlds were about to collide. Chika also isn't someone to easily be impressed with something being flashy with their money, preferring pure, simple things as opposed to ridiculously expensive objects or restaurants. Anyone who truly wants her attention and approval is going to have to earn it through being a good person.
She is very open with her feelings, wearing her heart on her sleeve and being very vocal about whatever it is that she wants... expect when it comes to potential romance, which will leave her a blushing, stammering mess and confuse the hell out of her.
However, in the last five years since she had last seen her brother, she has harbored a massive grudge against him for leaving her. As such, the thought of seeing her brother again quickly turns into violent daydreams. Still, even if she did reunite with her brother, there wouldn't be that much violence going on. At least, nothing that would cause him permanent harm, anyway. Well, permanent physical harm...
Okay, so when Chika does get mad, she gets mad like hell and holds a grudge for a good long time. It'd probably be best to not piss this cute highschool girl off that much.
