CHARACTER;
Name: Western order please.
Age: If it isn't stated, make an educated guess.
Canon: Be as specific as you can.
Canon Point: This doesn't need to be extremely specific, like page and panel. Just mentioning what events happened right before/after that point is good enough.
History: A link or description of the character's history. For canon OCs, please be as detailed as you can, and note where you have supplied headcanon to fill in what's missing.
Appearance: You may link a picture of them, but write a few sentences noting their clothing style in The World.
Personality: We expect at least three paragraphs, or 300 words minimum.
CRAU: If you are planning to app this character after their experience in another game, please fill in this section and note what major experiences they had and how it changed them. If not, you may erase this section.
Race: Upon entering The World, your character will be converted into either a Human or one of the three beast clans: The Ya Tribe, the Lei Tribe or the Tu Tribe. A small description of the races are here. Please pick one of the four listed and provide a little reasoning: it can be as simple as "My character is human" but for non-intuitive picks (like changing a human to a beast clan member) you may want to provide a longer reason.
Class: Please pick one of classes listed on this page. For Adept Rogues, list the other classes you have chosen, beginning with your starting class. Please also provide a reason for the class you picked. The reason does not need to fit your character.

First Person: This is the format used in the Network community. Actions are in brackets while spoken word or text is not. Minimum length is eight sentences.
You may link a post or thread from a musebox, a meme thread, or a previous games, but make sure they are long enough for the mods to accurately judge your writing.
Third Person: This is for the Log community, and should be written in third person past tense. Here, there is more room for introspection and description. Please make this a minimum of two paragraphs. You may link a sample from elsewhere, but only if your First Person sample was not linked, and vice versa.

[ Canon || Claudia (Hortensia) Kotomine || Fate/stay night || Reserved ]
Age: 23
Personal Journal:
Contact Info: gilded chrysanth [AIM]; missbiondetta [Plurk]
Other Characters: N/A
no subject
Age: Mid-20s
Canon: Fate/stay night
Canon Point: Pre-death
History: This is what we know about Claudia in canon. As we don't know much about her life outside of her role in her husband (and daughter)'s backstory, I have fleshed it out here:Appearance:
Claudia is frail and delicate in body, with very pale skin and white, wavy hair. Her eyes are yellow in color, with one of them scarred over and always concealed by an eyepatch. Due to the nature of her condition, her body has a number of scars all over it, none of which fade much even after a long period of time; for the most part, she keeps those covered, too. In the World, her clothing will take the appearance of an armored dress: white cloth and pale metal, with lace and delicate detailing.
Personality:
Kirei says his wife was a saint, and his assessment is hard to argue with. Claudia can check off every box on the list—both good and bad. She's patient and forgiving, willing to withstand poor behavior in order to encourage good, but also unwilling to stand up for herself or become angry when she's treated poorly. She's loving and nurturing, willing to care for and support even strangers in their time of need, but she ignores her own wants and needs in the process. She's innocent, but her purity of mind can't be separated from her sheltered naivety. And, above all, she's pious, her faith in God and His benevolence boundless and unfailing, and yet at the same time blind to opposing views and even objective failures of the Church. Her unshakable "goodness" becomes a double-edged sword.
Not that most people would realize that at a glance. On the surface, she's just unfailingly sweet and friendly, always willing to offer a kind word or gesture to the people around her regardless or whether she knows them or not. She hates seeing people unhappy, and she'll do whatever it takes to stop them from being such. She's perfectly genuine about this, too—other than simply being nice, she's deeply empathetic, and as such she comes to care for others quickly, easily becoming invested in their personal struggles. Furthermore, she's willing to try to understand the behaviors and motivations of even the cruelest of people, and she's easily moved to tears by the hardships other people have had to endure.
Of course, you can't be a saint without a little self-sacrifice, and Claudia has that in spades, too. In fact, she has a little too much of it. She's perfectly willing to throw away her health, her happiness, and even her life for the sake of other people, taking altruism and turning it into martyrdom. Case in point: Her willingness to commit suicide in the hopes that feeling sadness at her death would allow Kirei to be ultimately happy. Sure, the circumstances there were a little extreme—she cares about her husband immensely, even by her standards, and she was on her deathbed anyway—but it's really just an expression of her normal behavior taken to the highest degree.
Ultimately, this pattern of ignoring her own needs and desires arises from her distorted self-image. She sees herself as worthless and lacking in intrinsic value as a person, utterly insignificant but for her ability to do good for other people, be that on an individual personal level or by fulfilling a role for the Church. She doesn't even hate herself. She would have to care about herself to do that, and if her tendency to run her already sickly body ragged proves anything, it's that she doesn't. This also causes her to blame herself for things that are ultimately beyond her control, since if she can't help others, what use does she have? If only she had been able to do a little more...
Of course, saint or not, she's still a person. She does have negative feelings, and she does want things. However, negativity and desire are both things she suppresses and ignores, and doing something just because it will make her happy isn't something she is capable of without guilt. In her mind, resentment, anger, and want are all selfish emotions that she should be above, regardless of how justified or innocent they are. And when she does feel those things, she is seized with feelings of moral failure. If she was a better person, she wouldn't think that way. How could she be so awful, feeling something like that? In fact, she's so awful that God probably caused whatever made her feel that way to begin with, just to punish her. Which she deserves. Because she's awful. Her looping, self-reinforcing logic makes it hard for her to deal with the issue rationally.
CRAU: N/A
Race: Human, since she is an unremarkable human!
Class:
Edge Punisher. In canon, Claudia is physically weak and delicate, so I thought it would be fun to give her one of the most sturdy and combat-oriented classes available. And, seeing as she has been ill all her life, she would probably enjoy that more than the healing or support class you would expect from someone with her personality! If she were an AU character rather than a jamjar one, she would almost certainly pick a physically powerful class as a form of wish-fulfillment, and even as a jamjar she will enjoy having the chance to be the strong one for once.
Abilities:
Masochistic Pneumatic Automatism Diathesis- Caren was stated to have inherited her psychic ability from her mother. This is basically a rare power that allows a person to act as a radar for demons, as when they're near a person who is possessed, they experience pain and even physical wounds. This can even happen when they're simply around someone whose thoughts and actions are sufficiently "dark" or "evil."
Items: Her Bible, her wedding ring, and a family photo album. YEP.
Other: Nothing that I can think of...!

( video; set after a few months in game )
[Today on the BBS: a video of a small, pale woman. She's smiling, and though there's a faintly awkward edge to it, she doesn't seem shy so much as unused to addressing large groups of people like this.]
Hello! I'm never really sure how to start this kind of thing, so I guess I'll get right to the point, hm? [She chuckles, and there's that same uncertain edge to it.] My name is Claudia, and I've been, ah, playing for few months now. I just wanted to let new players know that if you're ever in need of an escort, you're free to contact me. Dungeons can be rough sometimes, especially when you're still learning! [She claps one armored fist into her open palm.] I know I might not look like much, and there are certainly people more skilled than I am, but I think I've gotten pretty good at this kind of job. So... So you know.
[As her voice peters out, she presses her lips together, seeming unsure—and then something occurs to her, and she rushes to add:]
...Ah, and it's a free service! You're welcome to tip, I suppose, but I wouldn't feel right asking for anything in return. [One last bright, awkward smile for the camera, and she says:] And now that's really all, I think. Send me a message anytime.
Third Person: A link

After you have done this, post to the Taken Characters page and check out the Useful Tools page for some charts you may find useful to have for your character during their stay at Revision Three. Please create an IC inbox for your character as well! Make sure to read over the Rules and FAQ if you haven't already, and then introduce yourself at
Note: We would like to make a note about passive abilities. Passive abilities will not be available to the character naturally, even after reaching level 15, so as to keep the power balance of characters in the same level range equal. However, in the future, there will be a method of regaining passive abilities.
