NEW PM APP TEMPLATE SKELETON
Hey there guys! In order to prepare for the move, we recommend finishing your applications ahead of time! They will need to be converted to the new format, but as we don't have a template yet, you can go ahead and fill out all the information you'll need. This is the basic skeleton of the app, and will include information you may have not previously put in your apps, but don't worry, as you can see the sections that were added are fairly straightforward. The application was lengthened to give you more of a chance to develop your characters before roleplaying them.
You don't have to post your reapplications here, just save them into a document or on Google drive and work on your apps when you can! If there are things you're not sure about, feel free to reply to this thread with questions!
When you re-apply for your characters from this proboards site, we ask that you please add one to two paragraphs minimum history for your character's life in the manor since they came to it. For example, I've written a paragraph about NutMeg's life here:
"Eventually Meg found Mister Y, Christine, Gustave and Raoul again, though she’d really only prefer Mister Y to be in the manor with her. Meg has done everything to convince Mister Y that she is the better choice. She’s made a variety of friends in the manor, including a variety of Eriks and Christines not from her own story. She feels at home in the 21st century, where women are as wild and free as she wants to be. She replaced her old Edwardian clothes with chic, stylish clothes the women in the village wear, and has taken to cutting her hair and driving a cherry red Volkswagen Beetle. She recently got a job at the burlesque club Pandora’s Box in the Village, and has been trying to best the rival dancer, Teressa Lavalais, at every turn."
Depending on how active your plots have been, the length will vary, but this is basically what we want. It's just to give newer members ideas of what went on before the move!
