Katie and Jace's Character Adoptions

I'm relatively new to successfully adopting characters out, but I love love love making new characters, especially babies! :D Adding new family to an existing one is always fun, regardless of whether it's a branch not yet explored or a budding new twig. Please carefully read over my Adoption Information before you contact me regarding any adoptables. Thanks!

Jace and I are co-owning this page because we like to make babies together with our characters, and tend to make loads of them. <3

Most of this template came from Sie's adopts page, while I grafted the easier contract terms in part from Kitty's adopts page (because I will probably never have either of the extremes, so why have them here?); thank you both!

Contract Terms

  • Contract: Strict: This adoptable has some strict terms. I may want certain things out of them beyond personality, including long-term plotting and a concrete personality; they may be better developed than other adoptables. I'm going to be very picky with who I allow to play this adoptable. Players with inactivity streaks, drop/pick-up, etc. may be denied.
  • Contract: Moderate: This adoptable has slightly more stringent terms, such as a predetermined personality or short-term plot. They also may be required to remain in a pack for a duration of time. As such, I will be moderately picky about who plays this character. Players may be approved if they have inactivity issues in the distant past.
  • Contract: Relaxed: This adoptable is almost completely available for customization. There may be general guidelines that can be discussed, but no absolutes. They will be essentially undeveloped, with the general exception of fur design. Not picky at all about who adopts, though do remember the reclaiming rules.

Adoption Information

Pre-Adoption Changes

Undeveloped

For characters without development (e.g., they have not appeared at 'Souls yet):

You are free to discuss pre-adoption changes to their history, backstory, appearance, etc. I'm typically open to such changes: however you find it most fun to play them, have at!

Developed

For characters with development (e.g., they've appeared at 'Souls already):

Changes may not be possible, especially regarding their appearance and backstory, if they've spoken of their history in-game. In general, I prefer not to allow changes to characters with active roleplay history. Retconning is generally a no-no, and it may change things even if you're looking to alter off-board history of an on-board character with prior roleplay.

Post-Adoption Development

  • Generally, you do not need my permission to do things with an adoptable. Develop your character how you want. :3
  • For no characters am I looking to control every little aspect of our characters' interactions. For some characters I may have stricter requirements about what I want out of them plot and thread-wise.

For Stricter Characters

Some specific characters may have more stringent terms! I understand that character development just happens sometimes, but if it's your plan from the get-go to take a character a different direction than I envisioned, let me know beforehand. E.g., if you're applying for one of my "darker" characters and you plan to take them in a more light-hearted direction from their outset, including edits to their history to make them less dark -- you should tell me about it when you apply!

Re-Adoption

About

I work hard to make my adoptables shiny -- some of them come with a lot of junk! I also try to put thought into their appearances and biographies. So, in cases where a player doesn't stick around very long, I'm liable to find a new player. Generally, if you've adopted a character from me and you've dropped them or disappeared, please don't be terribly surprised if I find a new player. D;

Specific Terms

I may choose to re-adopt the character if you have:

  • dropped them for a long period of time (6+ months since character was dropped)
  • dropped them with only brief play (0 - 6 months, 0 - 100 posts, etc.)
  • dropped them with inadequate play (unfinished threads and plots, errors in interpreting pre-set character history or personality, etc.)
  • disappeared from or otherwise permanently departed 'Souls (2 years or more)
  • been permanently banned from 'Souls
  • broken a specific term of the adoption contract (e.g., if I stipulated Esmerelda must join AniWaya and you take her to Anathema instead)

Your Stuff

  • All baubles (art, titles, icons, etc.) originally given with the adoptable return with the character.
  • Gift art and gift graphics are typically considered reclaimable with the adoptable. If you bear a particular attachment to a table or something, let me know; I am flexible. :)
  • Commissioned and bought art is considered your property. New players must request your permission to use such items, even in the case of art customized to that particular character.
  • Titles and icons...
    • ... earned via game points, contests, etc. are considered your property; however, you must request removal/transfer in a timely manner after dropping the adoptable or they become property of the new player.
    • ... purchased via the 'Souls store are considered your property and may be removed/transferred to your own character at any time.

Interested?

CONTACT

Initial contact by Discord is okay, to express interest, but after the initial contact, I ask that you PM me the below form. If you choose to include an RP sample, I'd -love- to have one of the character you're interested in -- gives me an idea of your style and what you plan to do with the character!

  • Your preferred nickname:
  • Character:
  • Why the character interests you: No need to be overly wordy here -- a simple explanation will do!
  • A RP or other writing sample (e.g., from a previous game): Not necessary if you currently play at 'Souls.
  • Any plots or ideas you've gotten for the character: OPTIONAL!
  • Have you read, understood, and agree to the contract terms on my adoption page as well as the individual contract terms for this character?:

Forewarning

I greatly appreciate adopters who are patient, strong and active roleplayers, etc. I may not adopt to players who:

  • Constantly pick up, drop, and switch characters.
  • Who constantly ask for adoptables, then fail to join with the adoptable.
  • Show severe streaks of inactivity, constant absenteeism, etc.
  • Are not going to join with the adoptable as soon as possible.
  • Have adopted from me before, only to have the situation go awry in some way.

Don't be intimidated -- it's just a warning. :) If you're interested, ask anyway -- the worst that will happen is a no, after all! I'm pickier about some characters than others -- for example, Esmerelda Soul, a character who I've been trying to have adopted for a long time and who is not integral to my roleplay or plots, is pretty much open season, whereas I might be considerably more selective in considering the player of the child of one of my active characters.

Notes

  • Upcoming characters: Feel free to ask about these, but be aware that it may be some distance in the future before the character is actually available -- especially if they're puppies! See above, I enjoy making babbies for characters.
  • Inactive characters: These are characters that have been played under six months and 100 posts that have been dropped or NPC'd. If the player of said character makes -no attempt- to contact me within one month of drop/removal, these characters are eligible for re-adoption, at my discretion. (See "Specific Terms" above)
  • Decommissioned characters: These are characters that have been played in excess of six months, have a large amount of posts and a significant amount of history at Souls that would make them difficult to adopt to a different player. These will always be eligible to be picked up by their former player or, in cases where the player is permanently leaving the board, will become unavailable for adoption.
