Character Claim

To claim a character, you'll post the form at the bottom of the post in a reply to the comment for that month. Please no toplevel character claims! This helps us stay organized.

How many characters can you claim? Each player may claim a maximum of seven characters at this time. We recommend you do them one at a time, taking time to find your footing with each one before adding the next, but we have no specific requirements as to when you can app in each character. You can also always test drive as many characters as you want.

What kinds of characters can you bring in? Our rule of thumb is that any character that makes reasonable narrative sense. Please note that the death or near-death experience required for the narrative does not necessarily have to be canon--- you can invent one specifically for RP purposes here! See our FAQ for more information or ask a mod if you're not sure, but most things should be fine Original characters welcomed and encouraged!

Is there an age minimum for characters? Yes and no. Due to the fact that Pumpkin Hollow is inherently a horror-centric game and is NSFW-friendly, we strongly recommend and prefer characters that are over the age of 18. However, we may take applications for characters who are minors on a case-by-case basis if we believe that they would be narratively well-suited to the setting. There is no specific minimum age, but age will be taken into consideration alongside other factors when we make these decisions. Feel free to ask a moderator about the suitability of a character younger than 18 before filling out an application.

Is there a cast cap? Not presently! However, we do want to keep our overall cast as diverse as possible, so if we need to, we may set a reasonable cap proportional to the size of our game down the road.

What about doubles of an existing player character? Doubles are not encouraged but would be accepted if each version is significantly unique from the other. For example, the protagonist a game with multiple branching paths might be wildly different between those paths!

Can I play more than one character from the same canon? Again, this isn't necessarily encouraged, as we'd much prefer castmates be able to interact freely. However, if you receive mod approval then yes, playing multiple characters from a canon is possible on a case-by-case basis. Approval will depend on various factors (e.g. characters from your original canon or that do not interact are easiest to approve). However, please note that you cannot acquire bonus AC for threads/interactions solely between your own characters.

Can my character bring along an attached NPC? This is may be allowed on a case-by-case basis if it makes narrative sense. For example, Sam from Death Stranding could ostensibly come here with Lou, the baby he carries with him. Please reach out to the mod team to discuss the specifics of your situation! We try to be flexible where we can.

All that said, we look forward to seeing your characters in Pumpkin Hollow. You may notice that some information is requested twice; this is because you're filling out both a claim post and a text area that we'll copy and paste into the taken list. See you soon!

History: The Sorceress, along with the other members of the adventure's company (Wizard, Fighter, Dwarf, Elf, Amazon), arrive in Hydeland and get involved with battles against surging monster attacks from ancient sites across the land, and a political coup attempted by the Prime Minister against the next heirs, Princess Vivian and her Uncle Dean, following the disappearance of the king. The king killed himself to thwart a ritual by the malevolent Morneon religion to summon a powerful ancient dragon, sealed in the Illusionary Lands by the world's goddesses. Key to their plot is the Dragon's Crown, an artifact that was imbued with the power to control dragons. Following his ascension to the throne, Dean is sacrificed by Morneon just as the previous king was, though the adventuring company has already destroyed the existing magic to reach the Illusionary Lands. The company found nine talismans to enter the Illusionary Lands and slay the ancient dragon before it can break free and cause destruction to the kingdom and possibly the realm. Vivian was made queen and inherited the now-powerless Dragon's Crown.

The goddesses of the land, one of which was restored by the ancient dragon's defeat, then tasked the adventure's company with defeating two progressively stronger dragons which stole their power. Upon accomplishing these tasks, the restored goddesses declare the company as the "Gate Guardians" for the Illusionary Lands, their name recorded in their mythology.

After these events, the Sorceress briefly entertains the nobility as a fortune teller before returning to an adventuring life. While death isn't unfamiliar with her, waking up in Pumpkin Hollow was something of a surprise, as normally she simply wakes up in the town chapel.

Personality: The Sorceress was a member of the adventurer's company that defeated the Legendary Ancient Dragon, and her mixture of playful optimism and knowing maturity played a key part in lifting the shadow that hung over the Kingdom of Hydeland. Outwardly, she is a typical enchantress — coquettish, mysterious, and even a touch cruel at times — but those who get to know her find that a far more mature version of her sits beneath the surface. Past the veneer of frogs and skeletons sits something of a maternal side, leading her to act as a kind of a den mother to her allies. She ensures they are well-fed on their expeditions by cooking and even transmutating food for them, and whether through her own culinary talent or through more magical means, the dishes that she prepares are, without exception, delicious.

In spite of this caring side, Sorceress has had little in the way of companionship, having been single her whole life and struggling to see her affection returned even in the friendships she's maintained. Between her extreme natural talent with magic and her stunning looks, the majority of people she crosses paths wtih are either intimidated or only seek to interact with her in an effort to use of her for one reason or another. To this end, she's grown hardened to the idea of making meaningful connections and instead leans in to what she's grown used to people wanting from her. She knows what she looks like, so why wouldn't she use it to her advantage? Making use of her charms has allowed her to gain much in the way of luxuries, but the constant need to put on an act definitely weighs on her.

The adventuring company she joined in Hydeland would be the first time that she would work with people who didn't see her as exploitable, as it was made of equally exceptional individuals. While guarded and aloof initially, the opportunity to be seen simply as herself was something she'd never known and meant that true friendships were able to be formed. Not having people cowtow to her did certainly cause unexpected irritation though, particularly from the company's other magic useer. Being in a situation where her normally-unrivaled arcane abilities were not only in-line with the abilities of her peers but there was actually someone looking down on her as "unrefined" was something she'd never had. A bratty side would show itself through this rivalry, resulting in more than a little immaturity from both magician — but this competition would also light a fire in her to grow stronger in the mystic arts. The constant back-and-forth between the two would come to be driven by unspoken attraction and, when these feelings would finally be admitted, the difference in tension was immediate and visible. Although neither magician ever admitted it to the rest of the company, and their interactions remained largely colored by competition and ego, something deeper had blossomed between them by the time the adventure came to and end.

Sorceress had grown up with little and spent much of her life chasing the finer things, so the wealth and prestige that she enjoyed in the wake of their success was everything that she had been looking for, but her time with the adventurer's company had shown her that there was more to life than simple luxuries. As pretty as she looked in fine dresses, and as fun as it was to wow petty nobles with fortunes and parlor tricks, the thrill of adventure's had become a core part of who she was now. Cracking open dusty tombs and delving into ancient ruins brought a rush incomperable to anything else, and the bonds she'd formed in such places were ones she sorely missed.


Initial Game Plan: Likely finding out as much informationas she can, picking up odd jobs here and there, seeing who she can help out with her magical abilities. Arguing and being tsundere with Wizard.
RP Interests: Everything and anything! I love all sorts of CR, positive, negative. Give it all to me.
Preferred Job: Entertainer/Entrepreneur although she'd also enjoy being a Cook.
NSFW-friendly?: Yes. I mean, just look at her.
