Returning Character Applications
We’re glad to have you back! Some things have changed since Save the Earth; a year’s passed, and the invasion left some dangerous consequences to deal with. If you’re not already familiar with what’s going on, you might want to hit up the FAQ before you app back in.
Your application is shorter, since we’ve already made you do the hard work the first time around. Fill out this form and comment here with it using the journal you used in Save the Earth; we’ll look it over and see about getting you into the game. Please make sure your info post is up to date with your character’s entire set of Echoes! If you’re changing journals, post with your original journal, and then reply to the acceptance comment with the new one; your info post needs to be in the old journal for acceptance, but you can move to the new one once you’re in.
You can only use this application through one month after the game opens! After that, you’ll re-apply like you were in Raise the Earth before, but you’re submitting a full application - and that means personality and history need to sync up with what you’re playing again.
UPDATED: If you are bringing back a character's doppelganger, please reply to your reclaim with another copy of the IC section of the form for them, including the things that are different for them! Doppelgangers need their own journals for Raise the Earth - reply with that journal, please! Numbered and doppelganger claims will be reviewed and judged separately, but if the original character's reclaim isn't approved, the doppelganger won't be playable until it is. Doppelgangers don't consume a character slot - they share with the original character.
Fill out this application and comment to this post. Please put your character's preincarnation's name and canon in the title!

Contact: (Some way we can get in touch with you. A journal, an IM account, Plurk, whatever.)
Current characters: (Are you playing any other characters here right now? Include applications you're putting in at the same time, and reclaims you have in the works.)

Info Post: (Link your info post from Save the Earth here. If your Echoes are somewhere else, make sure there’s a link in your info post to them!)
Application: (Link your original application, if it’s not in your info post.)
Post-StE Activities: (What has your character been up to since the invasion ended? Characters that were present for the invasion can pick up from there and fill the year since the game ended; if your character wasn’t there for the invasion, pick up from where your character was in the game last.)
Starting Location: (Where is your character based? Locke is dangerous these days, and Vegas is a pile of ruins and volcanic ash. Don’t forget that the Echo barriers are down, so characters can go anywhere in Earth’s orbit! Need ideas? Check the setting page and see what we’ve got.)
Additional Echoes: (You get some more Echoes over the one-year gap between games! You can have up to two additional Echoes by the time Raise the Earth starts; if you’ve got ideas for recurrences, use them for that, but otherwise, they’re plot Echoes with unspecified triggers. Don’t submit them as normal - just put them here in your application, and once we accept you, add them to your info post. If you received Echoes in
betweentheearth, just link them and that'll count.)
Goals for RtE: (Your character’s come a long way since the first pink lights, three years ago. What are their plans here? What are your plans? What kinds of things are you looking to do this time around? Where do you see your character fitting in? Is there anything we can do to help you reach your goals? Like the last game, Raise the Earth has a plot but is heavily player-driven. The things characters do (and want to do) influence the direction of the game! Tell us what’s on your roadmap, and we’ll see what we can do. If you don’t have any specific plans, that’s fine too. This section doesn’t affect how we judge your application.)
Additional Information: (Anything else we need to know? Are there significant changes since the StE finale that we might have missed? Include other information or questions here that might pertain to your application. If there’s nothing else, delete this section.)
Reclaims are OPEN, but don't post them here!
Starting July 8th, please submit reclaims on the applications post!

Player: Critiana

Current characters: Celine Blanchefleur
IC Information
Name: Celine Blanchefleur (Precarnation: Sakuya Izayoi)
Canon: Touhou Project
Info Post: Right Here
Application: Right Here
Post-StE Activities: After the invasion Celine stayed for a short while to help with the rescue effort and then headed back home to Fussen as early as she was able to check on her family in person and help with the moderate cleanup and rebuilding there. Fortunately, they all survived though her brother lost part of his leg.
Though her foster family was a bit wary about Celine being numbered the alien invasion had, at least, ensured their worry took priority over their distrust of the numbered. As a result things returned to relative normalcy. At least as far as her family was concerned.
Despite the opposition the numbered faced, she had not been known as one for all that long and was not that well known and she was nowhere near as recognizable as some of the other numbered. She quietly resumed her job as a waitress, doing her best to keep her status quiet and her powers in check and has managed to get by okay. Unfortunately, near apocalyptic alien invasions aren't good for business and Celine has found it difficult to get by on her reduced wages. This, in addition to escalating harassment from customers, co-workers, and even strangers has caused her to swallow her pride and seriously consider the idea of moving. Emi has (repeatedly) offered to take her in but Celine doesn't want to intrude.
Though she didn't completely disappear from the network she also hasn't reached out all that much to interact with other numbered with her own life being hectic enough as it is. However, her relationship with Emi, Dani, and Arthur has continued to improve mostly due to the fact that Emi finds some way to involve Celine. And working less meant fewer reasons to say no often resulting in Celine getting dragged along and actually having a bit of fun once she stops being a giant grump.
Over the course of the year Celine's nightmares caused by her powers have gotten significantly worse no doubt, in part, to the memories of the aliens' attack. To the point where she wakes up multiple times if she tries to sleep through the night. Insomnia set in after a couple months of this and her mental exhaustion has been gradually wearing her down.
Though she did her best to hide it, her family noticed fairly quickly. Despite their urging, she has not sought out any form of counseling or therapy beyond over the counter sleep remedies. This is partially due to the fact she doesn't want to draw further attention to herself, and partially due to her stubborn pride.
Starting Location: Fussen, Germany.
Additional Echoes: T1- Some of her skill at cooking returned after sampling some especially bad food. She did not re-gain the knowledge of her old recipes.
T2- Celine's silver knives re-gain some of the strange carvings along the blades that pick up ambient magic/energy when swung or thrown, making them more effective against ghosts, and enhancing the silver's natural vampire/demon hunting properties. Characters with magic/energy control can also channel it around her blades if they get ahold of them. (Celine herself has no innate magic and cannot do this, however)
Goals for RtE: Celine just wants to get by. She doesn't enjoy being numbered but is too stubborn to fall short on her responsibilities as one. She hopes to calm people's opinions about her and her role in everything and simply live the rest of her life in some degree of calm and comfort.
She doesn't really have any plans per se, but no doubt she'll be (unhappily) dragged into whatever shenanigans pop up time and time again.
