| 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! | ||

CHARACTER INFO
Character Name: Rei Ayanami
Series: Evangelion [anime canon]
Canon Point: The beginning of End of Evangelion just before the Seele invasion of NERV HQ.
History Link: Link.
Personality:
In the beginning of the series we see Rei as a quiet and stoic girl who has issues processing her emotions and is often unsure how to react properly when interacting with other people. This is seen in in the fact that she is completely unfazed when Shinji sees her naked and that she speaks to others in a straightforward manner that omits all unnecessary niceties and idle conversation. Outside of her work with NERV she seems to keeps to herself, even in class, while the only person she has constant contact with is Gendou Ikari, the head of NERV and the man who created Rei in the first place. It is also worth nothing that Gendou is the only person Rei shows positive emotions towards near the beginning of the series, smiling when he talked to her and saving a pair of glasses he broke rescuing her from an incident in which Eva unit zero went berserk as a keepsake.
For quite sometime Rei also lacks a powerful sense of self, instead living almost entirely for the sake of her role as a tool of NERV and even going as far to say that she could be replaced at any time, a fact that becomes quite literal with the discovery of the dozens of Rei clones hidden under NERV HQ. Rei's lack of self-worth and self preservation, seen in partly in her willingness to sacrifice herself during the 16th angels attacks, is likely due to her being one in a series of identical clones with whom she shares a collective memory, as seen in the fact that Rei III, the clone sent to NERV following Rei II's prior mentioned sacrifice, retains all of her predecessors memories but cannot process them due to the fact that she had not experienced the events personally.
As the series wears on Rei slowly begins to gain a greater sense of self. Early signs of this include her blushing when Shinji showed her kindness and her defense of Eva unit 01 during the battle with the angel Ramial. In turn it is Shinji who has the biggest effect on Rei as the series wears on, often being he is the kindest person to her in all of NERV even going as far as to pry from the burning wreakage of Eva 0 in the aftermath of the Ramial fight, an action mirroring his fathers efforts following Eva 0 going berserk. Though she remains quiet and collected, by the end of the series Rei seems to have progressed greatly in terms of her emotional growth, being able to reflect on her the nature of her own being, as seen in the conversation between Rei and her “sisters” during the last two episodes of the series and Rei 3 monologue concerning her own existence following Rei 2's death.
The summation of all this growth can be seen in both the series TV finale and End of Evangleion. In the tv ending Rei's “sisters”, representing her former self as Rei 1 and 2, bring up the fact that there were many Reis making her current existence interchangeable with any of them, she comments that she is in fact a unique being due to her interactions with others that helped define her as a person different from any of the former Rei's or even the woman, Yui Ikari, whom she was originally cloned from. In end of EVA in the final moments before Gendou's plan to begin Human Instrumentality would begin, which involved fusing Rei -who was made in part from cells taken from the angel Lilith- with Adam -another angel and progenitor of life on Earth- she instead betrays Gendou and puts humanity's future in the hands of Shinji, likely because he is the one who was kindest to her.
Powers:
Despite her alien origin, Rei is a fairly normal girl. Her biggest talent lies in her ability to pilot Eva unit 0. She also possess the power to merge with Lilith and Adam, thus becoming a god-like being, but I seriously doubt that will happen in game unless made part of a rather specific plot.
Other Details:
This app covers both Rei 2 and Rei 3, since the two share identical memories, though, for the purpose of including End of Evangelion and the last few episodes of the TV series in her canon, the actual character in-game would be Rei 3.

Revisions
Re: Revisions
“Who am I? I'm Rei, right?” she spoke to herself in the empty room as if to confirm her own existence. She wondered silently how many had come before her, how many poor girls had carried the name “Rei” only to pass on before they could truly become a truly unique being. The thought only hurt the young girl more, staggering her body and mind. Doubled over in mental anguish she lipped to the dresser that had contained what would from now on be her clothing. On the dresser's flat surface lie a pair of cracked glasses. Dredging the depth of her memory she knew who they belonged to and could even recall the event which he led to their near destruction. But they were not her memories, she had never experienced such an event, though she knew very well the man to whom the glasses belonged. He was someone important to her, or more so important to the girl named “Rei”. The more she thought the more she realized her existence, her memories, this room, and even the clothing resting in the small dresser belong not only to her, but to the collective “Rei”. Rei was not a single being, but rather she was but one among many. The pain reached a fevered pitch, nearly knocking her to the ground via it's sheer magnitude.
“I'm not the only one...” She reflected. “Then what makes me different from the girl who owned this room and even the girls who came before her?” She honestly didn't know, she was a being stitched together from disparate pieces, the DNA of a dead woman whose name she didn't know and even parts of a strange being from beyond the stars. One of many, a pale copy of someone who was long lost from this world, her mind screamed from the scope of it all. “What makes me different from all of them?” she repeated.
Then she began to recall the memories of the other girl, of all those she had met, the places she had been and the things she had done. They were things she would only ever know second hand, people who she would be meeting for the first time but who still dwelled within her inherited memories. “Maybe that's it.” she thought aloud. Though they were born the in the same manner and looked identical all the other girl had been through, seen, and done had shaped her had defined who she was as a living being. Within the confines of the mind of others, meaning beyond her strange origin had been attributed to her. It was so much to process, so much she didn't understand, but it at least silenced the pain wracking her frail mind and body for the moment. Someday, when she had done things and met people the other girl hadn't, perhaps she would understand the truth then.
“I'm going.” She stoically posed to no one in particular as she set out into the outside world.
