(((My Reflection)))
<Image goes here. Nothing too big, please.>
Nation: What nation?
Name: What is your nation's human name?
Gender: Is the character male or female?
Appearance Age: About how old does your nation look?
Hair Color: If the character is canon, what is their hair color? If an OC, you are restricted to natural colors ( we’re including white in with that ). Hair-dye is fine, but no natural “pinks” or anything like that.
Eye Color: If the character is canon, what is their eye-color? If an OC, any color is fine, but they cannot glow, change colors, or be slitted like a cat’s or snake’s. Heterchromia ( one eye a different color than the other or irises flecked with a patch of another color ) is fine.
Height: How tall are they?
Weight: About how much do they weigh?
Appearance: (( 100-word bare minimum. )) What do they look like? Please give a short description of the country’s physical appearance ( ie; hair length, hairstyle, and any identifying features ) and the types of clothes they usually wear, even if you have a picture. Broad images will work fine ( ie; “he is tall and lanky”, “he prefers loose-fitting, comfortable clothes”, or “her wardrobe consists mostly of light summer dresses in pastel colors” ). You don’t have to describe your character’s dress down to every last frill, lace, buckle, and button unless you really, REALLY want to.
(((Know Thyself )))
Personality: (( 310-word bare minimum. More is encouraged. [/color] [/i] )) Tell us a bit about your nation. Are they big-hearted? Hyper? Sadistic? Protective? A hopeless romantic? How do they react to life? What are their worldviews? Do they have any conflicting traits ( ie; an innocent sadist, a ditz prone to flashes of genius, a money miser who is otherwise generous )? Why are they like this?
Likes: What sort of things does your nation like? ( Minimum of 5 )

Dislikes: What sort of things does your nation dislike? ( Minimum of 5 )

Fears: What sort of things does your nation fear? ( Minimum of 1, and it can’t be their own death/dissolution because that’s a given )
☣

Secrets: Does your nation have any secrets?
♦

Strengths: What are your character’s strengths? These can be aspects of their personality ( ie; extremely loyal, honest, nonjudgmental, highly intelligent, etc. ) as well as physical attributes ( ie; incredibly strong, fast runner, quick reaction-time, etc. ) and skills ( ie; excellent chef, figure-skating pro, fluent in 10 languages, etc. )
Weaknesses: What are your character’s weaknesses? These can be aspects of their personality ( ie; petty, arrogant, judgmental, acts before he/she thinks, etc. ) as well as physical attributes ( ie; incredibly weak, clumsy, slow reaction-time, etc. ) and lack of skills ( ie; can't sing, can't cook, horrible at reading body language, etc. )
(((The Pages of History )))
History: Tell a little bit about your nation's history. At least 15 events with dates ( “history tidbits” ) will usually suffice, unless you want to add more. List form is perfectly acceptable, or you can write it out in paragraph format if you’d rather do it that way. ( Important Note: Please don't include when Homo sapiens first settled the land/region, as in most cases this will be tens of thousands of years before anything resembling state-level society emerged [ people were living in small bands or tribes ]. Exceptions would be for regions found and settled by people already living at or near state-level society. Also, it can be difficult sometimes in this fandom to determine whether a preceding country to the one you've chosen was actually a separate entity or your country under a different name. For the most part I leave it to the player's interpretation, but please take culture, language, lifeways, etc. into account. For example, it would be weird to have Iraq be Sumer under its most recent name, considering all the differences between the cultures, despite the fact that Sumer occupied much of what is now Iraq. )
Allies: Please list any allies your nation had for its most significant conflicts/wars/events. Including the present is strongly encouraged, but optional. Visit the Allies/Enemies section here for a handy reference as to the kind of thing we're looking for. Your list does not have to be formatted exactly like this — I just need the event/war and allies your charrie had for it.
Enemies: Please list any enemies your nation had for its most significant conflicts/wars/events. Including the present is strongly encouraged, but optional. Visit the Allies/Enemies section here for a handy reference as to the kind of thing we're looking for. Your list does not have to be formatted exactly like this — I just need the event/war and enemies your charrie had for it.
Sample Post: Write a sample post that is least 350 words long of you as the character you are applying for. You can do more if you want, but you don’t have to. This will give us a feel for your roleplaying and interpretation of the character.
Did you read the rules and Dark Reflections Canon? If you did, you’ll know what to do. ##Hint: you don’t put the secret words here. But something does go here.##
Random fun fact about yourself: Self-explanatory.
