| RULES AND REGULATIONS Check the taken characters and the reserve page to ensure that your character isn't already taken. We do accept nearly every type of character, including canon, minor, AU, game imports, OCs, fandom OCs, and so forth. There is one canon and one AU version of each character allowed. Especially minor characters may be evaluated as fandom OCs, but are appable under that distinction. Please remove the sections of the application that do not pertain to your character. You can play up to five characters at one time. Two of those characters can be from the same canon. You may bring in two characters per calendar month, discounting rejections. If you wish to apply for a sixth character overall or a third canonmate, contact us individually. App challenge policy is as follows: we will wait the length of the reserve for the original reserver to apply, and judge their application first, independently and not comparatively. Only if they are rejected will the challenger be assessed. Without a reserve, apps will be assessed in the order they are received-- again not against each other, but each one at a time. We would prefer if you do not delete your comments upon rejection or acceptance. Simply ask us and we will screen the entire thread on request for privacy, no explanation necessary. Applications are checked daily, and assigned to a mod who is best able to assess the application, either because of available time or because they know the fandom best. When necessary, the mods will discuss your application before coming to a decision. Please be patient and allow us time to check and discuss. Some apps will be approved almost immediately, while others may take a little longer. It's not because we don't care, but because we may be having trouble finding someone familiar with your canon, or simply that we're unexpectedly busy. If you have any questions about the application process, feel free to contact the moderators directly or ask in the FAQ for clarification. EXPLAINING THE FORM PLAYER INFO Player Name: Preferred Contact Methods: If you would prefer these are kept private, let us know in your application and we will immediately screen your initial comment. Other Characters: CHARACTER INFO Character Name: Include (AU) if applicable. Series: Canon Point: If you are applying for the OU version of your character, please give a quick explanation of what point in canon your character will be coming from. History Link: Please link to a canon source even if your character is an AU! Include a written history only if there isn’t a convenient wiki or other site that gives a good explanation of the canon. AU/OC History: If you are applying for an AU version of the character, or an original character, please give a comprehensive description of what your AU or original universe are about and (in the case of an AU) what the differences are between the canon history and your AU. You should include something about what has happened recently before the character comes to the Lost Realm. Game Import: If your character is being imported from another game, please identify the game and indicate what changes your character will display as a result of development in the game. It’s suggested that you include an overview of major events that have happened to them, and significant CR that they’ve made, but this doesn’t need to be terribly long. Personality: We have no word count requirement on this, but it should be the bulk of your application. Powers: This is mandatory for all characters, but does not need to be extensive. A list or bullet point would be fine. Other Details: Anything else you think we should know. SAMPLES Please give at least one sample of the character you’re playing. These can be musebox or game threads, or can be written fresh for this application. If you are doing a game import, you should include a recent thread from the game. Your application samples should give a representative example of how you’ll be playing the character in this game. We prefer thread links, but will not penalize anyone for providing more standard written samples instead; if we feel we need more material to judge from, we'll ask. Any Concerns: Anything you need to ask us? Let us know! | ||

The Summoner | Homestuck | Reserved
Player Name: Cat
Preferred Contact Methods: Plurk: chohakkaifan
Email: c.muller4788@hotmail.com
Other Characters: None
CHARACTER INFO
Character Name: The Summoner
Series: Homestck (OU)
Canon Point: Post Death - After the fall of the Cavalreaper rebellion
History Link: Link.Homestuck Pages Describing Character: Page 1, Page 2, Page 3
AU/OC History: The Summoner is only briefly mentioned in Homestuck cannon despite the important role he played in the back-story of the main characters. The Ancestor of Tavros Nitram was a renowned man from the lower castes who set up a rebellion against the traditional caste system used in Alternia. Using his advanced powers of telecommunication with animals and his pupation of wings to inspire the troops who had worked below him, he struck fear and admiration in the people. He was a skilled fighter and brave enough to rise in ranks through hard work alone.
It is during this time, that he meets and eventually wins the heart of Marquise Spinnerett Mindfang. A fearsome pirate who had been expecting their relationship for hundreds of years. He had supposedly won her interest due to his ability to communicate with the great dragon Pyralspite. Eventually the two became matesprits, and their partnership would lead to her death by his hands.
The revolution, as grand a scale as Signless’s, was eventually crushed and Summoners life ended. But he had struck a cord with the highbloods and Her Imperious Condescension to such a degree that The Condesce had sent all adult trolls off of the planet . Forever sending them off towards imperial conquest and keeping their minds away from how their own civilization is run. Alternia is forever after a planet run by children. And it is believed that Pupa Pan fairy tale that is told to them is loosely based around the Summoner and his ventures.
Game Import: N/A
Personality: Barely anything is stated on Summoner's canon personality. But much has been induced on the few pages we have seen of him.
Born into a lower common caste, he has spent many of his years under constant subjugation by the higher classes. He had seen much suffering and misery distilled by the caste system incorporated by the Condesce. And yet it seems, that growing up in such an environment has only made him and his feelings against the system stronger where it has placed many others in constant fear.
He is said to have been brave and skilled, and he is more then strong enough due to having survived his way to adulthood with his particular peoples violent lifestyle. It is also believed that through his physical similarity to Rufio and constant reference to the Peter Pan universe that he probably has the mischievousness and playfulness on par to a lostboy if not of Peter Pan himself. He is willing to take in most matters with a little bit of lighthearted sass. That is not to say, though, that he doesn’t understand the serious issues regarding the world around him. He grew to be a highly respected commander and knows well enough how to handle any military situation. Yet, despite being a strong and fully capable leader, he more then anything wishes for a peaceful, friendly and fun Alternia. And he is willing to fight for the peace he wishes to one day see.
He does not seem to fall prey to any form of racism despite his beliefs. His matesprit being a high blueblooded noblewoman and from the very group of people he is fighting against. More so, it seems that he is willing to share his beliefs with any willing to listen and only fight against those who violently attempt to oppose him. But seeing as he is the ancestor of Tavros Nitram, there are also probably times that, when alone, he would show insecurity much like his descendant. It has been proven that he communes openly with Alternian fauna and cares for them just as much as Tavros does. And he probably holds others opinions and feelings in high regard. For one of such notorious legend he is probably extremely atypical of most trolls and their usual behavior. I can personally picture that if he need not resort to violence he won’t. But he will do what he needs to in order to survive and uphold his beliefs, which he is quite stubborn upon.
Powers:FLIGHT- The Summoner is the only Troll in Alternia to have grown wings who is not one of the selected Hivebent trolls. Because of that he has gained much attention from others of his world. They are fully capable of being used and he actually spends a lot of his time flying around.
TELEPATHY- Like his descendant Tavros Nitram, Summoner has the ability to telepathically communicate with wild Alternian Fauna. It is quite powerful and he can communicate with enough animals simultaneously to form an army. But because his telepathy is so strong it makes him highly suseptible to any others who may happen to have psychic powers.
WEAPON- LANCEKIND- Also like his descendant, Summoner is seen carrying around a large lance around as a weapon.
Other Details: Because Summoner is a character that is so lightly touched upon I was made to form lots of headcannon in regards to his past story and personality.
I have it so that Summoner knows of Signless and his plight through the various legends that were passed down and told to him by people of his caste in secrecy. Though because such legends were legally banned by the Condesce they are unclear and often skewed and exaggerated. Summoner grew up a firm admirer of Signlesses legends, and has with these stories, been raised with the concept of a someday peaceful and non-segregated Alternia. So much so that while many trolls stuck to wearing their blood colors, Summoner wore a dual color scheme of brown and candy-red. The color of his idol.
He was like Tavros upon growing up. Much more reserved and less violent then most Trolls usually are. He was also physically much weaker then most, his bones light and oddly delicate. Because of such he was often teased and aggressed upon throughout many of his wiggler years. Unlike Tavros, however, he had developed such hardships rather easily into vices and learned to keep a strong outwards appearance against those who attempted to bring him down. It is because of this that he was able to survive into adulthood and join the ranks of the cavalreapers.
His softer personality though had taken many off guard, and while it had been difficult adjusting to military life at first he had eventually gained the trust of many others in his position. In fact, his rebellion may not have started at all if not for the aid of the men and women who have supported him along the way. It had further boosted his confidence. And when the time came that he was forced to stand up for his beliefs (Probably upon seeing someone close to him fall prey to the highbloods abuse) he did so happily. And he had gained enough support that it had turned into an uprising, and from that, a full fledged rebellion.
His wings were a fluke. Something he expected to happen just as much as all those around him would. Which is to say, not at all. A genetic anomaly that had long since been forgotten and that he just so happened to gain. And seeing as his pupation happened at an opportune enough moment (when many others were able to witness it) rumor spread and further support grew. During his time in the rebellion he had come to meet Marquise Spinerett Mindfang. And although their relationship was questionable at first (she being a snarky highblood pirate who for some reason knew too much, and he a leader to an underground lowblood army), they had eventually developed into matespritship.
As much as they had come to care for one another though, Mindfang had known that their time together was limited. And not due to Summoners own naturally shorter lifespan. Time would come where their lifestyles would clash and it was with his own lance that would end Mindfangs life. It would be something that, in the end, would play a major impact on Summoner, someone who relies so heavily on his emotions.
He would lead beasts and men alike into the final battle on the Condense herself. And he would fail. But not without leaving a devastating impact on the Condense. One strong enough to have her remove all adult trolls from their home planet for good. And one that would place him down in legends, just like the Signless he had come to admire.

Thank you for the Test Drive Meme!
Also have a Summoner meeting his hero without even knowing it.
Any Concerns: It’s my first time playing an ancestor and I’m still a little clunky. I guess I’m so used to playing characters with such strict guidelines. So if there’s anything you think needs to be fixed or worked upon further just let me know and I’ll be happy to fix it!
APPROVED
Also feel free to check out the OOC meet and greet meme to get to know the rest of the playerbase.
Don't worry, I've played ancestors before, too, and I know it's tough. But you're doing good :3
