POTENTIAL APPLICATIONS

How to

While the worldbuilding post is an excellent place to try and figure out City history CR, this page is more to help you to decide who you should apply for in the first place. Give us a good idea of what kind of character you're thinking of and let others comment in on how they might see it working! Think of it as a thought experiment for yourself and other players. As a reminder, this is completely optional. You are totally free to reserve or apply someone without commenting to this post first. ♢ Reception to your idea will have no effect on how the mods process your app. This is only a tool to help you decide who to put the effort into. ♢ Don't spam or flame any potential character comments. While just going "OMG YES!!" can be encouraging, it doesn't really give anyone a whole lot to work with, and neither does shooting someone down. Be constructive. ♢ Give your honest opinion. If you think a character really wouldn't fit in the setting, express your concerns. Maybe the potential applicant didn't think of it from a certain point of view. Paired with the above, please don't just go "I don't think this will work". Provide some reasoning! ♢ Don't take anything personal. Anyone who comments back to you on this post is only trying to help — even if it isn't outright encouragement. <b>Your name</b>: <b>Character name</b>: <b>Fandom</b>: <b>City life</b>: What do you think would suit them? <b>Powers</b>: How can you see converting their abilities to the setting?

Unfortunately, we would have to ask that you do not apply for Jane right now for the reason you mentioned. We don't feel there is enough canon about the Alpha kids yet to really make a judgment call on what they are like, and what their actual history is.

Aside from that, however, age is not an issue for characters! We have a few "under 18s" who are generally sent to study in the Library when they're in the Cave, but there is an option of them being given some sort of part-time job if they had one back in the City.

As for Aang, his bending would fit in well as a power to regain in the game with minimal tweaking necessary. Mostly we would be concerned about how much power he would have with those abilities. Otherwise, he sounds like quite an interesting choice!

Yeah, that's reasonable re: Jane. Perhaps in the future, after we do have enough background/pagetime with her, I might consider trying to app her... or not, who knows.

And yeah, Aang does have quite a lot of power, and I'm totally cool with scaling it down. I'm also thinking of apping him from a canon point where he has imperfect control of some of the elements, so there's that too! I'll sit on him for a couple days and see if I come up with any other ideas, but good to know you think he'd be welcome! :]
