I think I'm going to cap off applications here. Those who have posted a sheet and declared interest will have to the end of the week (9/25) to finish their sheets and I'll decide then what's happening with the roster. For reference this are the current applications list:

Applications

Glory Freeborn _@LadyAnnaLee
Dune Hatchet _@Bartimaeus
Bren Adalwolf _@PrankFox
Azure Kintredsten _@Datadogie
Midori Yoake _@Eisenhorn

Silme Fenerus _{@Raijinslayer}
Helio Trope _@Exit

Does that mean I can... do things...?

No but seruously I'll fix mine. I realized I didn't just miss the header.

@Exit

The minute I limit restrictions and Exit channels Rockette, I swear.

I think if I can see the personality traits in history, it'll be fine. But generally I prefer everyone to follow my coding as outlined as it typically shows they can follow instructions. However, I realize recently that being that much of a stick-in-the-mud about it is just kind of silly.

Grimm Noir [Rebooting~]

Did you merge personality and backstory or something?

Also seven foot two holy fucking shit. Maybe he should play Center for Mistral's basketball team instead.

Grimm Noir [Rebooting~]

I thought about modifying the look of my sheet, but by the time I wanted to it was close to 2am here. Oops. Hence why I left some parts blank to edit with a fully awake brain!

@FrogRFlowR

For sure!

At the moment my train of thought is gravitating towards not giving much helpful advice on sheets as I want to judge them all on the same merits when they are finished. Nobody gets a leg up on another person, basically, which is why I've been pretty quiet on finished/WIP applications in terms of their powers, etc. With only having seven slots and this much turnout I have to see what personalities and powers overlap and what kind of dynamic each would lend to in a group. Things I’m looking for the most are:

- Personalities that would create a dynamic in a team.
- Backstories that aren’t too much of the same thing, at least per group.
- Understanding of fundamental RWBY mechanics.
- The RWBY color/fairytale rule for naming conventions.
- Players who can commit long term; posting histories to help me verify what kind of player applicants are.

Hello! I'm about to go to bed, but I figured I would ask my questions before I forgot them. Please forgive me if this is information you've already shared. I'm just a bit loopy from being up 24+ hours. Thank you for understanding.

1. Do I still have time to do a quick revision/polish of my character sheet. I thought of some more I would like to add to his appearance and back story. It wouldn't be now. But within the next 24 hours for sure.

2. Would you be alright with lurkers?

@LadyAnnaLee

Yeah, you can revise anything until I declare that I am reviewing sheets.

As in people who don’t make it hanging out in the thread, chatting, etc? Yeah, why not. I don’t see anything wrong with that.

Grimm Noir [Rebooting~]

Some of y'all really missing the fontmeme header at the top, huh?

I don't know if I'm going to scream about the sheet being followed to the letter aesthetically, though, all jokes aside. Lot of you guys going for foreigners with some very interesting backstory design! I love to see it.

As for those who asked about if there's space well, right now we only have seven open character slots and there is a total of thirteen applicants. The math is going to make me have a conniption. I hate math! But on the plus side, I like good characters so I will enjoy reading all of them.

Grimm Noir [Rebooting~]

Glory’s gonna be fine. I’m more worried about Azure and Midori, now that they’re stepping on each other’s turf.

@ERode

Remember that there are two squads, even if that were the case.

@TGMRWBY rps be like that.

Draws everyone out of the woodwork

@Raijinslayer

Seems like it, but I'm not adding a third team regardless of interest. I'll have to sweat anxiety in choosing seven people by the end of the process, for sure.

Grimm Noir [Rebooting~]

Holy shit I wake up to a huge wave of people and some people who contacted me don't even have sheets up yet. Oh god.

Grimm Noir [Rebooting~]

I mean two squads. There are four huntresses/huntsmen to a squad in RWBY typically. If I go any more than that I won't be able to tell a cohesive story. Of course this requires seven sheets showing up that I like. Haven't decided on a deadline yet and I'm kind of giving anyone who declared interest time to finish up a sheet for the most part.

@TGM
Bren means fire in German, relation to the color there. Last name is reference to Cerberus—more myth less fairytale-means noble wolf

@PrankFox

Points for effort and being clever as hell.

How many players/characters are you looking for?

@LadyAnnaLee

Oh, you know, an amount.
