Auditions

[Ellie who has 0%]

I thought this was posted already anywho.

Auditions are in session for Roxas and Xemnas. Please know that if you already have a Dark XII or Org character, you cannot apply for another Org or Dark charrie unless you drop your previous charrie.

For both Roxas and Xemnas:
+ You must be an active members...the end.

+ For Xemnas specifically, be prepared to enter your inner bastard and co-plotting with your fellow staffy.

+ For Roxas specifically, there's been a modification to this character; Roxas will be able to remember events of the Day's game (excluding Xion) and be conscious during his and Sora's ventures during KH2. This is in fact a 'big deal' for Roxas, so applicants be mindful of that when applying.

Your interpretation of Roxas would be an important element in selecting the rper. You SHOULD *hint hint winkedy winky* reflect this Roxas in your RP Sample.

ALL Audition pieces shall be sent to the "admin" account. Nope I do not want to see them posted in the canon profile section. From the PM, the profiles will be shifted into the staff board where the new Xemnas and Roxas will be chosen.

Good luck to all of you,put on your best black cloak on, and get the typing.

Submissions of profiles will be closed on October 3rd; the decision on the characters shall be concluded by October 10th (a DAY AFTER MY BIRTHDAAAAY) unlesssomeshizhappensthatmakesitotherwise but I shall be bulldozing this thing to be done ASAP.

------------------------------------------
This is also a notice that we DO have a LOT of Dark XII and Org XIII spots open, and there are already plots set up for both sides. Here are the open positions:

+ Elaeus (if you wish to apply for him, please hit me up, since I was the last one to play him)
+ Isa
+ Lea (preview Sol's journal for him)
+ Myde (preview Leiz's jounral for him; if there isn't one, then preview his latest profile and let your imagination soar.)
+ Uldro (Luxord's Heartless) - one in the making
+ Lexaeus
+ Vexen (check out IUMA's journal for him; if there isn't one, then don't hesitate to ask fellow Org members of his previous ongoings)

Rook here, your friendly neighborhood Ansem-man, also hanging on to Ellie's coattails and saying JOIN THE DARK XII. We are by far the fastest advancing group, and formerly the most active and I would like to see that happen again!

Missions have been formed, from overtaking strategically-located Worlds, to manipulating key officials to use their good for our own selfish Heartless uses! Let your inner-bad guy run rampant, open your Heart to the Darkness, and join the XII!

Just to ask - how did Roxas end up getting back out of Sora? Or are we supposed to come up with something in our history as part of the audition process? Unless something is going to occur in-plot after the Roxas has been chosen, in which case we should write the history up to the end of KHII?

[Zephiris]

Good point. I had planned to mention that, and then totally blanked. XD

For those interested in how to cover Roxas' History, here is generally what you may wish to add:

- Technically, Roxas and Namine were extracted from their hosts by Kingdom Hearts. Why is not yet figured out by Mickey or any character, though has been determined for the plot. How lies in the mystery of the finer points regarding how Kingdom Hearts functions, which nobody entirely comprehends since Nomura has kindly not gone into detail about it. Roxas doesn't necessarily know who/why/how himself. You are at liberty to depict where he was when he found himself with his own conscious again, but -

- Like Ellie mentioned, Roxas has complete memories of his time with the Organization and KHII. What he does not have is Sora's memories, and vice versa. (Sora has reacted to Roxas' memories in the past, because they were within him, whole but untouched (ex. crying over leaving Hayner, Pence, and Olette); this 'package' of his memories were removed with Roxas.)

- Unlike how he's been previously roleplayed (for the most part, without his memories), Roxas is not currently with the Organization. If his roleplayer wishes him to be in the future, keep in mind: will Roxas really go back, with what he knows now of their motives? After all he's been through with Xion, Axel, and given all he's learned of himself?

[Rook]

And as such, I think this truly goes to show the undertaking and importance that Roxas will have both as a character, and as a part of the plot. Whoever attempts to pick him up must be willing to venture outside of the box we have known Roxas to rest in. Logical, and appropriate ventures must be made to prove to the staff that you understand the character, and that knowing now what he does about his past with the Organization, what his own actions will make of him as an individial and what they will drive him to do.

I'm assuming that this was another blank, as Ellie just mentioned that Xion was to be excluded from the history

On another note, will there be other particular criteria except for the understanding of Roxas' nature and character and roleplaying ability upon which we will be judged?

[Zephiris]

Correct, he canonically lost his memories of Xion. So you're right - that may affect his decisions a bit.

None comes to mind at the moment, but apart from those points he'll be judged like any other audition. If a trait or History point doesn't quite work but isn't too major, we'll still point it out to you, probably after we've already come to our decision on his roleplayer. If things get to close we may ask for edits before we choose.
