Never stay up late at night to complete a CS! Your sleep is more important than this RP, in order to keep a healthy lifestyle!Otherwise, ; I wondered which one you were going to choose, and I look forward to interactions between Mai and Mato. Mai's got a very protective streak, see, especially for people with a disadvantage. On top of that, whilst the other children will be forgetting their names slowly...Mato's notepad might have "Mae Toussaint" written on the cover...*/plot!*Once all of the spots are filled, I'll start on the IC. Thanks for waiting, people!

She stays up late when she doesn't have anything to do the next day anyway, heh. So not like thats anything out of the ordinary.

Anywho, huzzah~. Mato will probably have her name written somewhere on her pad too since she'd need it to introduce herself to most people at all.

mmm. lin though, was pretty humanoid.

She was the spirit of a ferret, apparently. But I believe that was more intentional on Miyazaki's behalf to make the attachment between Chihiro and Lin more pronounced, and to make Lin stand out a bit more. The same way they give the protagonist of an anime green hair whilst everyone else has brown or black, you know?

Yes actually I mentioned that before o3o I wonder how a ferret spirit is that shapely then...

Ah, alright, thanks! X3 I see, I see; it's no problem, though, I have respect for those who try drawing their characters. XD I kept my draft on another computer, so I'll go put the CS up this afternoon probably~ I hope there will still be slots by then sobs--

*BURSTS THROUGH DOORS*
I'll be starting on the CS now :P. Saw the movie, and though I didn't find it completely amazing I definitely thought it was cute and charming, worth the watch.

Oh man! Is there any more room in this RP? I can't tell who is accepted and who isn't.

2 spots left, and 3 extra slots, don't worry.

It's all up to personal preference, but let's be honest - if I didn't adore it, I wouldn't be making an RP of it! Still, the setting and the concept is certainly far out there and different from the usual academy RPs, so let's give it a shot.

There is, and I shall explain the 'slot' and 'spot' difference to all y'all right now:

A spot is just like any other 'closed' RP - first come first serve basis, if you get one of these you're given entry to the RP, and usually the GM (me) waits until all of these spots are filled before starting the IC.

A slot, for me, is different. I hate it whenever I want to join a closed RP but there are no more spaces left. -especially- moments after they just started and the GM is still "NOPE, SORRY." So I added 3 more spaces, for people (like analane) who are late to join but still want to join nonetheless.

Since the RP hasn't started yet you're more likely to get a position, and there will be 2 more slots for others, but the only downside between a spot and a slot is that I tend to be much harder on slot applicants; if they aren't very good at RP and aren't wiling to be co-operative, I will decline them upon moment's notice, mainly because I wouldn't want to ruin the experience for others, and partly due to the fact it is a royal pain in the behind trying to find some way of dragging a human child into a spirit realm and then across an endless lake. So why would I go the extra mile if the person isn't willing to go the extra mile for this RP? You get the idea now, I hope.

tl;dr - SPOTS are easier to get than SLOTS, but since you're applying before the RP even started, it's going to be a lot easier.

Okay, here goes~ Might make edits later on if it doesn't cut it.

<IMAGE WIP>
NAME: Tori Skye
NEW NAME: Tomo
NATIONALITY: Canadian
GENDER: Female
AGE: 11
APPEARANCE:
A little bit tall for her age, Tori is a child seemingly bursting with energy, with middle build and ruddy cheeks. She has short light brown hair pinned down by colorful assorted clips in a seemingly arbitiary fashion, hardly stopping the thin strands from getting in her face anyway. Most notable on her round face are her large green eyes and her wide, bright grin. She dresses for comfort, and as long as the color pleases her, she'll wear it. Oftentimes, a band-aid on her elbows, knees, or face can be seen from her various adventurous pursuits. Her manner itself is quite explosive, and she comes off as someone who is hasty and clumsy but otherwise loveable.

PERSONALITY:
Bright and cheerful, Tori is the type of child who seems to spread happiness just with her presence. She is bubbly and optimistic, if not loud and boisterous, and her seemingly limitless energy and curiosity tends to send her into troublesome situations, although she means well. She tries hard to be honest, though sometimes it comes off as tactless instead, in which case she's willing to put down her pride and apologize. Despite her bursting actions, Tori is not particularly careless aside from the most common trip-up from running too fast.

When it comes to negative traits, Tori is reckless, impatient, and possibly short-tempered, especially when bored. She always wants to be doing something; nothing irritates her more than being idle, and being idle irritates her a lot. Being the type of girl who always rushes around, Tori tends to be a little bit harsher towards slow people or people who lag around. She doesn't mean to snap, but when she does, it's usually because something can't be done quickly enough for her tastes.

Despite her flaws, Tori is still generally pleasant to be around, especially because of her sunny aura that tends to dispel negativity all of its own accord.

HISTORY:
Tori was born into an ordinary middle-class Canadian family of three, having two brothers, one older and one younger. Her parents are ordinary people of the working class, the type of people who work in offices; specifically, they are accountants, having met in college. Their family is the close-knit type, going out on Sundays for family outings, having meals together, and the like.

Growing up, Tori had always been the most energetic one, more energetic than her brothers, much to her relatives' amusement. Although she tends to crash into trouble often, her family and friends are happy to have her around, as she serves as their little light, cheering them up whenever they happen to feel down. As for her, she respects her parents, idolizes her older brother (who is going to graduate high school in a year), and tries her best to be a good sister to their youngest and a friend to her classmates. The only fights she gets into are probably due to her throwing fits out of boredom, which her parents and older brother try to remedy by keeping her busy with summer activities and the like.

All in all, Tori has had an ordinary childhood in a good, loving family environment.

Accepted. I can tell Tori and Blake are going to be adventuring buddies, and it looks like Mai's got her work cut out for her! xD Just remember to get a picture going ASAP.

One spot left! Now we just need to wait on either Gargoyle or Analane and I can post up the IC for you all. I'm so excited!

EDIT: I just wanted to also say that I have the OOC post and the Character Sheet dump backed up in a file on my computer with all the formatting intact. If, for some reason, Roleplayer Guild suffers another big crash/loss of data, your CS and the RP will be safe on my computer, and I will also save the initial IC post.

Cool, and thanks. XD I'll see if I can have a sketch up by tomorrow, and I'll probably color it at a later time.

Speaking of 'sketches'; I've got the IC post up and ready to go, I just need to finalize a few things whilst I watch Spirited Away (again) for information that will be vital for the RP.

If it's not too late I would LOVE to join

Added a WIP sketch for Tori! It's pretty bad though

It isn't too late, but by putting up your CS you'll have to understand that I'm going to be a lot...more critical than I normally am, as we've already got our 5 characters. (A friend of mine has just PM'd me her Character Sheet and it's very close to being accepted.) You may post a CS if you're up for it but the less slots there are, the more likely I am to turn people down.

I saw it and I love it already.

Just to announce - if Gargoyle and Analane reappear and post up a CS before the end of next week, then they'll still be able to join. but until then, any more new members after (her royal highness) Princess Mizuki will no longer be requried.

I can't believe I've completely filled up my RP! I hope you're all as excited as I am to start!

NAME: Daniel Amera[/centre]

NEW NAME: Ame (Ah-May)

NATIONALITY: English

GENDER: ♂

AGE: 14 years old.

APPEARANCE: Ame has medium-length choppy white hair and sea-green/blue eyes (a vibrant cyan colour I guess?). He's slim and tall and not very muscular due to lack of hard work. He likes to wear vests or low-cut tops with a jacket and always carries his headphones and Iphone for music. (Perhaps his name could be lost in a list of contacts) He has a mischievous grin and an imp-like way of holding himself that makes people not trust him to do the right things, contrary to his personality.

PERSONALITY: Ame is a mischievous boy who will be the one who wants to "Check out the old abandoned house" or "Cross the old withering bridge!" just to get some kicks. He's upbeat and jokey and likes to keep a bright and light-hearted attitude either around himself or as a general feel with everyone. Despite this, being the eldest boy he will act brotherly towards those less able than he. He'll sympathise with the younger children and has given himself the idea to attempt to protect everyone.

HISTORY: Ame can only really remember moving house constantly. The first place he re-called living in was an apartment. He'd lived there until he was four then moved. Next he lived in a terraced house with limited space. Being so close to the neighbours means he made friends with a girl next-door to him, he'd climb over the fence to play with her in her back garden and they'd play hide and seek and loud boisterous games.

Shortly after they'd become really close he ended up moving. A semi-detached house when he was seven, a new, fancy private school and no friends. He listened to music and made friends with the twins that lived next to him. Similar to the girl-next-door he'd climb through a hole in the fence and played on their play instruments and they even walked to school together! The twins became his closest friend and his guide to school life and general life. As soon as he reached ten years old they were allowed to play outside the gardens and he remembers on hot summer days they'd go down to the shop and buy ice-creams with their two pound pocket money. Around eleven he became aware of what he wore and decided to make himself look presentable, though not going through as much trouble as girls may. On his eleventh birthday the twins introduced him to bands he was interested in now and on his fourteenth birthday they gave him a pair of copper and black headphones with his name on one side and the twins names on the other side, in scripted in gold.

(( It may not be brilliant but since it is rather last-minute you said it was understandable! ))

Aha, welcome Jessikka! Just copy over the rest when you're done, I remember you had some computer issues and lost your CS. ^^

It's looking good so far, just a couple of grammar errors to be fixed before I accept you.

Fixed :3

Accepted!

I shall work on the IC post ASAP!

The IC post is now up!

Posted~ getting this show on the road~
