> APPLICATION.
Thank you for your interest in Per Caligo Video!
Here is where you'll find the form for fandom applications, as well as submissions of both fandom and original character applications.
*Application forms for Original Characters can be found HERE.
*Application forms for NPCs can be found HERE.
Guidelines for submission!
• Please do not submit applications until we indicate that applications are open.
• The subject line of your application should be as follows: CHARACTER NAME | CANON (ORIGINAL CHARACTER) | RESERVED/NOT RESERVED
• At this time, you may apply for two characters per application cycle, and a total of four characters per player. Each player is permitted to app one NPC. Applying for an NPC counts towards your total character count, keep in mind!
• Reserves are not required. If a non-reserve challenges a reserve, the reserve will be judged first.
• Applications will open at 12:00AM EST on the last Saturday of each month, and remain open until 11:59PM on the first Friday of each month. Dates for each cycle will be clearly labeled in this post.
• Acceptances will be handed out simultaneously following the closure of the app cycle, to ensure everyone looking to apply has a fair chance at the character they're interested in.
• Revision requests will be explained as clearly as possible. Those who plan on following through with a revision request will have one week from the date the request is made. We will do our best to respond to your revision as quickly as possible. Should there be any questions regarding revisions/requests, we will gladly explain further. Please contact us if you wish to do so.
• Just as a quick note, the mods would prefer players post their applications in the comments themselves rather than linking. It makes the process smoother for us!
• HAVE FUN! That's our primary goal here, after all!
Procedures for app processing:
• No acceptances or rejections will be handed out prior to the end of any given app cycle. They will be sent out simultaneously once all apps have been reviewed.
• Revisions will be requested upon reviewing of application. Those looking to submit revisions will have one week from the time of the request to do so. Should the revisions be submitted before the end of the app cycle, they will be processed alongside all other acceptances and rejections.
APPLICATIONS ARE CURRENTLY CLOSED.
THEY WILL OPEN ON MARCH 31, 2012 AT 12:00AM, EST.

>PLAYERNAME/HANDLE:
PERSONAL JOURNAL:
ARE YOU OVER 16?
CONTACT:
OTHER CHARACTERS:
>CHARACTERCHARACTER NAME: Western order, please!
SERIES: Please provide a link (Wiki or otherwise) that will give us a grasp on the canon. If there aren't sufficent resources to link to, please give us a couple of paragraphs elaborating on the general plot.
CANON POINT:
APPEARANCE: Link a picture to the appearance of the character or put up a brief description. This section is especially important for OCs due to the lack of canon resources. It’s also important to those apping non-human characters! If you are apping an non-human character, please link the canon appearance and include a brief description of your non-human character’s “human” appearance. If a robot, please describe the humanoid design.
PERSONALITY: A two-to-three paragraph minimum explanation of your character's personality. What are their strengths and weaknesses? Positive and negative traits and habits? How do events in their canon help shape their growth and personality? This includes but is not limited to specific events and character relationships. Please note, however, that it should not read as a history section - examples should complement the section, not overpower it.
ABILITIES: A quick rundown of your characters abilities in canon. Please note, anything above and beyond an average human's capabilities will be sealed for their duration of time in the game.
POSSESSIONS: What your character has on their person, not including their weapons.
>PERSONAMAJOR ARCANA: Please give us THREE Arcana you feel could suit your character. We will look over your app and pick the Arcana we feel best suits them. You may write out the reasons for your selections. If you choose the Fool arcana, please indicate whether you would like your character to also be a Wild Card. You may also provide a short explanation as to why you believe the ability fits the character.
SHADOW: Your character’s Shadow. We are looking for creative ideas based on the flaws outlined in the app’s personality section. We want to see what issues will be exaggeration and how! You’re also free to include a dungeon design and Shadow boss design in this section as well. You can be as detailed and go as crazy as you like.
PERSONA: You may choose to either use a Persona 4-available Persona (so long as it is not being used by a canon character) or deisgn your own. If using an existing Persona, please choose THREE Personas, one for each of the Arcanae you've selected in the MAJOR ARCANA section. Their movesets will be adjusted accordingly, regardless of listed skill levels.
For those creating their own Persona, it should be based on a mythological figure (the choice is yours, so long as it's not used in the Persona-universe). Its Arcana will be given based on the one chosen for your character.
PERSONA ACQUISTION: By which means would you prefer your character to acquire their Persona, if you plan on doing so? Current options are by shaking the gas station attendant's hand or facing their Shadow in the TV World. Please note that if your character wouldn't be able to accept their Shadow, the TV World option is not recommended. Also note that preferred methods do not guarantee the way your characters Persona will be acquired.
>SAMPLES
(For panfandom apps, one of these must be set in the world of Caligo.)FIRST PERSON ACTION, JOURNAL, OR PHONE SAMPLE: Caligo does not have one single network unlike many other games. It has phone calls, texts, a school and town bulletin board, and private journal entries (like we all know Yosuke used to write in middle school.) You're free to use whichever you see fit.
THIRD PERSON SAMPLE: Introspection is what we’re looking for. We want to know that you know the thought process of your character! 300 words or more is recommended, but not required.
