To create your character, fill out the following template. Post it under the Profile Creation board when you're done; once a staff member approves your character, you're all set to start RPing!
The classic heroes of the Wolf's Rain series. According to ancient lore, when the world is coming to its end, Paradise will appear. The only living creatures on Earth capable of locating it are wolves. Wolves are widely believed to have been hunted to extinction two-hundred years ago. However, wolves do still exist - and in surprisingly large numbers, too. To survive, wolves have adapted a unique illusory capability. Wolves can disguise themselves as humans and pass amongst them effortlessly! A wolf's strongest instinct is to find Paradise. Although some individuals may pretend otherwise, every wolf feels in its heart a compulsion to locate that elusive heavenly place.
A wolf is strong and fast, and he knows it. He feels compelled to search for Paradise - additionally, his natural inclination is to form a pack with other wolves so that he can better protect the Flower Maiden and find Paradise.
Canon Equivalent Examples: Kiba, Tsume, Hige, or Toboe.
[/u]: Describe your character’s visual appearance as a human being. As a human, you can have clothes and a basic (non-gun) weapon if you like (for example, Tsume's punching knife, which was an homage to his claws in wolf form). Your character might be able to wear the human illusion, but they are still a wolf - so naturally, unlike real humans, they won't carry much with them! Minimum two five-sentence paragraphs, please. Feel free to post up an image of what they look like to enhance your written description, but if you do so credit the artist who created the image.
Breed: Although it's never expressly mentioned in the animé, there are a lot of different breeds of wolves. For example, one might infer that Kiba is an Arctic Wolf judging by his appearance. In the same way, one might think that perhaps Toboe is perhaps a Swamp Wolf, and Tsume a Grey Wolf. Do a little research, it's fun!
Wolf-dogs, like Blue, are fine to play, as long as their wolf half is the predominant one.
Wolf Size: How large is your wolf? The size of a wolf is written two ways; height (at shoulder) and length (from snout to tail). The size differs depending upon the breed. For example, Tsume is a Common Grey Wolf, so he might be 3 1/4 feet tall and five feet long.
Wolf Weight: How heavy is your wolf? Please write the amount in pounds. Going by our Tsume example earlier, he might weigh 110 lbs.
Wolf Description[/u]: Describe your character’s visual appearance as a wolf. Only realistic colors will be permitted - your wolf form cannot be a rainbow sparkledog. The only area in which there will be leniency for unrealistic coloration is the wolf's eyes; although they would never occur in nature, green is okay if you really want it.
Minimum one seven-sentence paragraph, please. Feel free to post up an image of what they look like to enhance your written description, but if you do so credit the artist who created the image - even if it’s a photograph of a real wolf.
Ability: In Wolf's Rain, each wolf in the main pack had its own unique trait that it brought to the table. For example, Hige had an unusually good sense of smell, even by wolf standards! What is your wolf's keenest ability? It can be something as simple as having a strong bite, like Kiba, or an especially loud howl like Toboe.
Personality: Describe how your character tends to act. Minimum two five-sentence paragraphs, please.
History: The most important part of your profile! How did your character come to be wherever they are? Were they born inside a bubble-city, or free range? How much of this dystopian world have they experienced, and do they know of the Lunar Legend? Depending on whether you are playing a human, flower maiden, wolf, or other animal your history will be very different. Your character may not have met any canon characters from the animé in their histories. Before writing this part of your profile, make sure you have read the plot thread carefully and understand the setting of Valse de la Lune.
Accessories: In the Wolf's Rain series, it is not uncommon for a wolf to have a treasured item that they carry with them or wear. For example, Toboe's bracelet, Hige's tag choker, and Blue's collar. Your character is allowed to keep one reasonable item on their person in wolf form, but it has to be something that a wolf could realistically carry or wear in wolf form.
Goals: Each character on Valse de la Lune must have a goal of some sort. For most, it is to find Paradise. Others might only want money, and some might be motivated by fame. Having a character goal written down helps cohesion into the story and prevent aimless drifting (which could lead to passionless RP.)
