Please, put care into your application! Admins don't have to accept something if it isn't detailed enough, or there isn't as much information as there should be for a particular character.
Before you make an app...
Canon Characters
Stick to the canon! The character you have chosen should behave as they usually would, so no extreme out-of-character behaviour, please.
Make sure that the character you are applying for hasn't already been taken by somebody else, of course.
Original Characters
Though we do accept OCs, bear in mind that Admins might always accept them. Also, making an original character that has some relation to a canon character (be it a sibling, a son, a daughter e.t.c) must have been discussed by the person with that character first. If that person is okay with the idea, then and only then can an OC have a relation to a canon.
Any race is accepted, except, of course, Timelords.

Describe Their Appearance
Here you can write about how the character may come across in a room full of people, for example, instead of just their basic physical appearance. Do they stand tall and proud, or try to blend in with the walls? At least one decent-length paragraph.
Personality
In General
At least two decent-length paragraphs
Attitude Toward...
Here, pick two things that your character likes - be it a habit in another person or just an object or thing in general. Describe their opinions toward these, and possibly explain why that is so
Attitude Toward...
Do the same as the above here, but pick two things that your character doesn't like instead
All The Little Things
Personal Effects
Anything special or unique your character keeps on their person? Add them here
Quirks or Habits
Maybe it's a nervous twitch, or just a bad habit. Be sure to include these here for any future reference
Extras
Anything else you want to add?
History (only for OCs)
A brief history for your character, only necessary for original characters, however.
Sample Post
This is fairly important so we get an idea of your writing. Make it at least three paragraphs, can be set anywhere you want - and don't forget to post it just as you would on the board.
