Unfortunately, we cannot accept your application at this point in time. As it currently stands, it's missing or unclear about pertinent information that would allow us to understand your character and how you perceive them. The following are ways the application needs to be adjusted to meet our standards:
The personality section contains very little about the character's personality and is instead mostly backstory and extraneous details about the character's powers and other unrelated-to-personality skills and knowledge. While we do want some pertinent backstory details, these should only be included if they explain personality traits and/or motivations, not in place of them.
What we're looking for in the personality section is an understanding of how the character acts and feels, how they present themself, their worldview, and their motivations. We are interested in what about their personality causes them to do the things they do more than in the things they have done. Though short, the personality section should give us a thorough understanding of who the character is as a person, what they care about, and why they act the way they do.
We welcome you to work on your application and re-apply with the new version for next week's app round. You may find it useful to look at our example applications here and here, and if you have any questions, please ask and we'll be happy to answer them. Thank you for your interest in Lost Raiders!
