Welcome to Awash's applications, and thank you for your interest! Before applying, please be sure to read the FAQ!
For new players, there is an application cap of however many applications will bring us to the game cap of 80; we will only be reviewing the applications received that fit into that number.
For current players, there is no cap. Please feel free to submit an application for your second character if you would like to; that application will not count towards the application cap.
- Please note that a reserve is no longer required to app, as we will not be having a reserves round before application rounds any longer with the small number of slots that are open!
- Please paste your app into the comments; do not link to your application. This is for the sake of fairness when judging applications.
- Please do not delete and repost your application. That makes it difficult for the mods to keep count of how many applications have been submitted!
- If you receive revisions, you will have 48 hours to submit your revisions before the application is automatically declined.
- If your application is declined for any reason, you may contact the mods here or via PM for more information; however, there is no guarantee the decision will change.
- Applications will be processed twice: once halfway through the app round, and once at the end of the app round.

Caramia | Ozmafia!! | Reserved
Name: Rubie
Contact: Rubie#6621 (Discord), @rubiesriot (Plurk)
Current Character(s): Caramia
Reserve: Caramia's Reserve
Character Info
Character's Name: Caramia
Character's Canon: Ozmafia!!
Character's Age: No canon age. Confirmed to be "lots of generations" old. Headcanoned to look physically mid/late-twenties.
Canon Point: Pre-game canon (Just before the protagonist shows up)
Background/History: As this is spoiler-heavy, here's my synopsis in a link.
Strengths:
[Insert Katy Perry's "Roar" Lyrics] Caramia was once a lion, and since becoming a human, a few of those traits carried over. His eyesight isn't great, but his sense of smell and hearing are excellent, exceeding the standards for a majority of people. His hearing being his best sense and is capable of picking up on sounds within a reasonably large distance. Because of this, he's also very sensitive to noise, and highly concentrated scents. Too much perfume or harsh smells will avert him, as well as loud or high pitched sounds.
LionKind hearted Caramia's often put down for being a "bleeding heart" and told that he's not how people pictured a don to be. However, Caramia himself views his kindness as a strength, and he isn't completely incorrect. His kindness is a heavy drive for him, using it to protect those he loves, make friends easily, and be naturally protective and fatherly to those smaller and weaker than he is (generally children). Stemming from this kindness, Caramia is also very optimistic, and it's extremely hard to get Caramia down on anything. I'd say he's "always looking on the bright side", but this sunshine-embodiment is the bright side on most occasions. He's always doing his best to keep spirits high and people happy.Not a Cowardly Lion And finally, his courage-- it was a gift he got in Oz from the wizard. It takes the form of a pendant, and reacts to his desire to be courageous, and will work even when not on his person (within a reasonable mile of his vicinity). Because of his boundless courage, he's able to do things instinctively, without having to worry about what scares him or having fear hold him back from anything. Even without his pendant, Caramia still has the will to be brave, and values it immensely. He may be anxiety-ridden and utterly terrified of most things, but the urge to protect could convince him, through much hesitation, to put aside his fears briefly.
Weaknesses:
Reckless With great courage comes great recklessness. Because of Caramia's immense courage, he acts before thinking most of the time. He means well in most of what he does, but he'll always do what's instinctively available for him, instead of planning something out. It's why he has a competent, level-headed consigliere around, to keep him from foolishly doing things. A good example of his recklessness is just how trigger happy he is. In canon, there's a scenario in which he's on patrol for a dangerous criminal, and when his love interest surprises him, he shoots her without thinking, so sure that it was his target. He beats himself up over it horribly.
I'm not sick, this is normal- [COUGHS] Caramia's body is also not extremely healthy. That's not to say he's not fit or he's fragile-- quite the opposite, actually! His immune system is the issue. Being a mortal lion transformed into an immortal human has not been well on his health, as he's well exceeded his lifespan, and as such, his body can't keep up with it. He takes plenty of medications so he can function on a day to day basis, and still he gets constantly sick, usually during cold season. Not to mention he's a nocturnal creature trying to stay on a "normal people" schedule. All of this takes quite a toll on him.
But just a bit Too Kind And then, of course, as much as it is a strength, Caramia's kindness can also prove to be a very potent weakness for him as well. It makes him an overly trusting person, and makes him want to help everyone he can, even when it's none of his business, or if he already has too much on his plate. This is especially bad for Caramia, as he lives in a town where not interfering with the other families is crucial, as it could ruin his reputation, or even have consequences for the Oz family as a whole. Despite this, he still wants to help if there's something serious (i.e. a murderer) and often has to be calmed by his advisor.

Extra Item of Choice:
Color: Red suits Caramia best, as it is not only the color of the Oz family, but one of his favorite colors. He associates it with bravery and lions, and as such, is an important color to him, personally. I use #b90b3c for him, let me know if I need to pick a new one!
Sample:
1 2 3
[ OPTIONAL ] World Aspect:
If I had to say something off the top of my head, there are annual meteor showers in his universe, of which his town celebrates and make wishes on. Seeing those, even if colorless, would make him a little more a peace with the world, if just because who doesn't feel a little at ease after they make a wish?
Alternatively, group the characters with their colors up, introduce chaos and weapons, pit the colors against each other. Boom, families and mafias.Though, really, I can't think of anything big.
