Apping a Character

Who Can I App?
To begin, players are allowed to app three characters, and we'd prefer that two of them be canon Marvel characters. The characters can be any age, though we recommend they be at least 18 due to potential content issues, and should have had their backstory adapted to make them a mutant. Note: This does not mean that the character has to possess any special abilities - a naturally purple toenail on their left foot would indicate an activated X-Gene just as definitively as would the ability to fly. If the character is originally of extraterrestrial or interdimensional origin, their backstory must be adapted unless specific circumstances are discussed with the mods. Time travelers are welcome, but will not be able to travel back past the original Jaspers' Warp event.

Adapted characters can be from any source, but must be adapted to be mutants of terrestrial origin. For our purposes, naturally born magical ability will be considered a mutation.

NOTES:


 * Certain characters are not available for application. At this time, those Xavier, Magneto, Moira MacTaggart, Sinister, and the Dark Beast. Others may be added as plots develop.
 * At this time, you can have a maximum of 5 characters. Other than at the game's onset, only one can be adopted in a given month. NPCs requested by the mods for plot purposes do not count against this total.
 * Apps are accepted at any time. Please be patient about responses, though if you haven't heard anything from the mods after a week, feel free to inquire.

How to App
To apply for a character, copy/paste the application below into an e-mail, and send it to both mods:

Please note:


 * The mods may request edits to any application.
 * The mods may reject an application or put it on hold for plot reasons, and request that it be resubmitted at another time.

Dreamwidth
Once your application has been approved, you'll want to create a Dreamwidth journal for your character using the following formula: kx_name. For example,

Then, you'll need to follow the three main communities used by the game:



If you like, you may also follow the other Krakoa X-plored journals, but it is not necessary. Most of the other character journals are used for posting to the communities, though some people add personal information to their characters' journals. To add multiple journals at the same time, go to the Administration Console and enter the following into the command window:
