[OOC] Animorphs

[Architect]

Hi. Uhh, I heard you guys were looking for a new Smart Dude or Dudette? I was thinking about throwing my two cents in. Or dice. Whatever people say when they wanna butt in.

[AmazinglyVivid]

Why yes we are! I look forward to seeing your app!

[Dedonus]

All you need to do is fill this cs out!

OP said
CS
CS: (Include what role you hope for the character to have at the top)

What's your name?:
How old are you?: (High school age; I may accept a character a little older, but they'd have to be interesting, and in a position to regularly interact with the others)
What do you look like?: (A real picture may also be included at the top of the CS, under their role)
Do you have any hobbies? Please feel free to discuss them here:
Any dislikes?:
Tell me, what are your goals for the future? Both immediate and long-term.:
What's your home life like? Specifically, what is your relationship like with your parents?:
Siblings?:
What's your favorite animal, and why?:
Favorite color?:
You wake up late one night to discover that your house is burning down. What do you do?:
Finally, a tricky one; which came first, the chicken or the egg?:

Again, I must emphasize that this is to be written like an interview of your character. I am most likely to accept characters who fit their archetype and expand on it, so that they read as actual human beings. Feel free to post any questions here for feedback, or to PM myself and/or DotCom.

Sorry the post was so short, just wanted to move it along a bit.

I don't see anything wrong with a post involving character interaction being short. You can't do to much before you start encroaching on other players.

[Architect]

Coolio. Any cliff notes about the IC? I can read it either way, just to know where my character would be.

[AmazinglyVivid]

We're only a few posts in. The basics are that it starts mostly like the books; all of the characters meet and form a group, mostly by chance, at the mall. Because they live in a small town and mostly grew up together, most characters have pre-existing relationships, which Dot and I encourage. Friends, enemies, crushes/lovers, exes, family, whatever. Please keep such relationships in mind when making your character. Anyways, they've only just really started meeting up. Once they leave, they will decide to take a short cut through an old construction site, where they will see a UFO and the fun will really begin. :)

[Architect]

Perfect!

[DotCom]

Dropping in to say I've been MIA...but I should be back in the game tomorrow night.

[wonderlandalli]

Archie feel free to jump in at the mall after you cs and get approved. I mean, it's already weird. :P Random people walking in? Why not.

[Terminal]

Hello again, Architect.

In the meantime: I will have a post up tomorrow, sorry for the delay. I got a new computer and was busy shifting things around.

[Dedonus]

Hm...what should Mario do next?

[wonderlandalli]

It's hard to get close to Iikka. There's a wall there.

[AmazinglyVivid]

SO... I don't really care about having a sixth anymore. If Architect submits a profile, great! If not, my character would do perfectly fine as the smart one. She's a bit more aggressive than I'd intended but, that's fine!

And, it's fine for certain characters to not like each other or not be very friendly or whatever, but keep in mind that them leaving and walking home together is important for the continuation of the plot. :P

[Dedonus]

So what's the plan for all of our characters to leave together? I just wanted to know so that I know what direction I need to take in my next post.

[DotCom]

I'm thinking don't want for Arch to post, Dedonus. Maybe the mall will magically close 'early' or something, lemme check with Vivid. =)

[wonderlandalli]

The others should go on towards the site. The mall can be about to close and so soon after they start walking, Jason and Iikka head out in Jason's car. They pass the construction site to see something going on with the other three and Jason makes the executive decision to stop and they get out to check on the group.

[AmazinglyVivid]

^ Yes, that definitely works.

[Dedonus]

@Dot: Do you want to do a collaborative post together, since Jason and Iikka has just walked away from Mario and Max? Just pm me if you do. And sorry for not posting recently. School Year is coming to a close, which means I'm in crunch-time now.
