REJECTED

[rekindlemods]

Thank you for your interest in rekindleme. Unfortunately, we must reject you application as submitted at this time. Our reasons for doing so are as follows:

At this point, we feel that the character has diverted from canon too much to be recognizable. We're also concerned that certain aspects that clash with canon - particularly his romantic involvements - aren't explained or justified. In addition, there isn't enough discussion as to how his development in-game (particularly being a clone) would have affected him. And lastly, the samples we saw we weren't able to get a good grasp on Sasha's voice. Altogether, there were too many problems to warrant a revisions request.

You may apply again next application cycle, beginning July 8th, or apply for another character if you so choose. You may apply for the same character up to three times in total.

Thank you very much! I will be using this here journal (not to be confused with demifemme though I will probably get mixed up myself sometimes).

Re: ACCEPTED + CLARIFICATION

[nohugging]

Thanks, mods!

There's a couple of accommodations I'm thinking of. All of these are just for her home and/or own terminal.

-Kitchen stuff! Since Rin would use her feet to cook, she'd position herself to cook by sitting on the counters. It'd probably be a good idea to have the kitchen counters at a lower height, and/or have a stool around, so that she can easily climb onto them to get her stuff or prepare food. Also, have the plates and cups be made of shatterproof plastic to lower the chance of injury. I'm not sure how she'd handle a standard tumbler-shaped glass other than by using a straw, but she should be able to use glasses with handles (like a mug/teacup) or stemware (like a wine or martini glass) just fine.

-Bathroom stuff! Maybe the bathroom counter and shower shelves could be at a lower height as well, while installing a seat in the shower to enable her to get into more positions.

-In canon it's explained that she has trouble dressing herself, and had her dorm-mate help her. I thought this might actually be fun to play around with, since it counts as physical contact and would benefit both her and the person helping her. In the case of emergencies such as hiatuses/drops or that character being unavailable for IC plot reasons, though, a handy-dandy stick like this one might help Rin get by.

Other than that, she should be able to manage pretty fine.

EDIT: Actually, a small stand to put her communications device thingy on so she can record video messages and a stylus to use touchscreen features more easily would also be nice.

Yaaaaaaay~ This journal, please.

REVISIONS REQUEST

[rekindlemods]

Thank you for your interest in rekindleme! In order to accept your application, we need to see the following revisions:

We'd like to see an expansion on your character's world information. At this time, it only seems to cover what the character knows, which doesn't give us a good grasp of what's going on in the world - particularly the actions of all the different factions and other key characters such as Ryoko and Zekarion. Also, we'd like an expansion on the period in Shinju's history when he is blind.

Please make your revisions and reply to this comment within three days.

REJECTED

[rekindlemods]

Thank you for your interest in rekindleme. Unfortunately, we must reject you application as submitted at this time. Our reasons for doing so are as follows:

We feel that this application shows a gross misrepresentation of the character's personality and motivations. The focus is placed on a relatively minor aspect of the character's personality, to the point of nearly ignoring other, more important aspects. We feel that the difference between personality as presented and personality in canon is too significant to warrant a revision.

You may apply again next application cycle, beginning July 8th, or apply for another character if you so choose. You may apply for the same character up to three times in total.

REVISIONS REQUEST

[rekindlemods]

Thank you for your interest in rekindleme! In order to accept your application, we need to see the following revisions:

We would like to see his personality expanded, particularly regarding his motivations, his reactions to 'Silver Yogi,' and his fears.

In addition, we would like to see a different introspective sample, as the current one doesn't give much insight onto his thought processes.

Please make your revisions and reply to this comment within three days.

REJECTED

[rekindlemods]

Thank you for your interest in rekindleme. Unfortunately, we must reject you application as submitted at this time. Our reasons for doing so are as follows:

The personality has several problems, including being far too sparse and disconnected. It doesn't include several important aspects of the character, lists contradictory traits or examples without explanation, and neglects to elaborate on several others. In addition, the third person sample seems to contradict canon aspects of her personality, and we're having a hard time seeing her thought process in it. Overall, there were too many problems for revisions.

You may apply again next application cycle, beginning July 8th, or apply for another character if you so choose. You may apply for the same character up to three times in total.

REJECTED

[rekindlemods]

Thank you for your interest in rekindleme. Unfortunately, we must reject you application as submitted at this time. Our reasons for doing so are as follows:

Unfortuantely, we feel the personality section does not convey a thorugh understanding of the character. While it covers the traits Tohru displays as of her canonpoint, it neglects several of her deeper motivations that are still present (though hidden) in earlier chapters, even if they aren't revealed until later ones. As it is now, the personality section is too shallow for simple revisions, as working in the complexities of her character would call for a total rewrite, and so we cannot accept your application at this time.

You may apply again next application cycle, beginning July 8th, or apply for another character if you so choose. You may apply for the same character up to three times in total.

Revisions!

[hellfire_gouka]

I hope it's alright if I leave them here! Let me know if there's anything else you'd like me to expand upon.

Expanded World Information: Ten years prior to the fire that destroyed Shinju's home, two mystics, Zekarion and his adoptive older brother Glen, were sent to the human world to search for the daughter of their king. Thanks to their research, Zekarion's persuasive abilities, and Glen's illusory abilities, they were able to take positions in the largest conglomerate in human society--one which had nearly as much information as the government. Under this guise, they would search, although it was more difficult due to the lack of details they had to go on. Eventually, they climbed in the ranks, and Zekarion used his abilities to influence the head of the company for his own means. Having come to hate humans, he began to have the CEO enact harsh policies for their employees and do deals in secret to destroy homes, murder notable people, and generally whatever he could think of to cause misery without being caught.

The girl who called herself Ryoko, having run away from home after discovering her dragon heritage, found herself in one of many off-the-grid mystic villages, and the outside perspective let her see clearly the damage that had been done by ECLIPSE. She and several of the mystics she met agreed to form an group, using their unique abilities to stop them from committing any more crimes and attempt to reveal them to the public at large. Eventually, they gathered many more members, mystic and human, and became what is known as SOR. Thanks to their talented members and quiet funding from a select few, they were able to start gathering information and stop some of Zekarion's planned atrocities. However, the man was able to discover the origin of some of the funding--a couple who happened to be Shinju's parents--and burned their home to the ground to deal a blow to SOR.

The occasional infiltrations of the different ECLIPSE buildings by SOR brought them to hire and train more guards, Shinju among them. The attempts of each organization to bring down the other continued, bringing along with them a few casualties, all of which were blamed on SOR.

Ryoko, seeing that her crush from school had been taken under the organization she was fighting, attempted to meet with him and take him to relative safety, only to have him attack her, and her dragon instincts caused her to injure and blind him--an action which she quickly came to regret and fret over. Not long after, Zekarion discovered that his new pawn, Shinju, was extremely useful--as the girl who appeared to be "in charge" of SOR hesitated to harm him, while his efforts had convinced Shinju that Ryoko was responsible for his loss. The girl tried to search for a way to undo the damage she had done, and thanks to the other mystics, came to discover that her blood would help him see again.

After delivering the cure, Ryoko was glad to take him back to SOR, although many of the members there viewed him with displeasure, as he had been responsible for many of their injuries. Even so, many of them who interacted with Shinju came to trust him, as he had come to trust them. Meanwhile, Zekarion, angry that one of his key pieces had left of his own accord, eventually came up with a plan to trick him, and sent him a message with one of his spies' help. Although he claimed he had taken Ryoko hostage, he was merely using a decoy, and instead took Shinju himself as a hostage under the curse. Using him, Zekarion attempted to persuade Ryoko to give up, and she found that she was unable to dedicate herself to the cause she had championed if it meant hurting someone she cared about.

However, with Shinju's apparent death and disappearance, the tables might have turned...

Extended Character History: When he recovered, he dedicated himself to his job, intent on killing Ryoko once and for all. Finding himself under a harsh veteran trainer, he pushed himself to the limit despite his new handicap, and became a force to be reckoned with. His training, work, and continued studies under a private tutor took up much of his time, and in the little free time he found, he had little desire to make friends. Due to his ruthlessness and apparent refusal to speak with his coworkers, he was called "Hellfire" and avoided by most. However, he found himself still unable to deal with the day-to-day difficulties of not being able to see, and came to depend on his trainer's daughter, Isadora, and her close friend, Jonas, for assitance. Although he was cold and rude initially, her caring but assertive demeanor, and his straightforward and earnest personality eventually won Shinju over. Although Shinju's friendly nature was dimmed by his desire for revenge and his losses, he was pleasant to them and truly came to appreciate them.

Despite his vicious reputation, a young man called Willingham idolized him for how "cool and tough" he was. His behavior, following Shinju around and asking how he might help or for Shinju to train him, initially irritated him, and while he continued to be somewhat short with Willingham, accepted him as part of his small "group." Unfortunately, on one of his worse days, Shinju ended up having an argument with him and insulted him, leaving the boy feeling awful; and although he regretted his words fairly quickly, there was no time to apologize. An attack on the building sent Shinju out to fight, and Willingham, attempting to help and prove himself, stepped forward to attack an enemy. Unfortunately, Shinju (who usually fought alone) thought his footsteps were those of an enemy, and attacked him, leaving the boy with a near-fatal injury. Shinju did not meet him again after that, as he was no longer able to work as a guard. His guilt only caused him to focus more on his training and studies, and his day-to-day life started to feel mechanical; even to his few friends he became distant, afraid he might hurt them.
