EXORCIST PLEASE~1) Despite being twenty-two years old, Quinn Moretti is a thin, diminutive woman that stands at 5'1". With short, messy blonde hair, a light tan, and sharp, crystal blue eyes as well as her penchant for male clothes, she is often mistaken for a young boy. The fact that her voice is slightly deeper than most women doesn't exactly help either, although suits her personality fairly well. She happens to enjoy fighting as well as teasing/irking others, especially when Quinn finds their reactions particularly amusing. However, when she has a friend, she is incredibly loyal to them.
Having never known her birth parents, she was instead picked up by a middle-class family with a son younger than Quinn by a few years. From a small age she grew up with them and came to view the trio as her home. One day, the young son decided that when he grew up he wanted to be an exorcist. He was unable to work towards that dream for very long; however, as when Quinn was out with her friend she returned to a burning house, her family gone in the ashes. To bury her grief, she took on the dream that her beloved brother could never achieve and made it her own goal.
2) Long-ish RP
These are the length of replies I get if I have enough time. Usually done fairly fast around the summer and more like one a week during school time.
A pet journal from Shibusen, post full of RPs near bottom
More casual-length replies. Due to time constrictions these are 2-3 a week, but would be way more if I had more time. >>;;
3) I am always online daily unless I happen to be on a vacation. During school, I'm on for 1-2 hours Monday through Thursday, I'm on all day on Friday, and 4 hours on the weekends. During school vacations I will be on more often.

Hello~ <3 Sorry it took so long, but heres my application for a position as an Exorcist. Everythings out of order, sorry! OTL
I'm on consistently through the day - usually whenever I'm not out of the house. Because I am a computer nerd. This usually ranges from when I wake up around twelve or one to when I go to bed which is always differing from one - five in the morning, PST. I'm home schooled currently, so I'm free on weekdays as well as weekends. I have riding lessons ( tuesdays & thursdays, 6:00 - 7:00 ) and I usually get home from them between seven o'clock and eight o'clock. I also have one hour sessions with a counselor for my schooling program on Thursdays ( 3:00 - 4:00 ) and get home between the four and five o'clock hour. The only things that come up that would hinder a lot of my time on the internet are get togethers with friends, but those are mostly on the weekends, and all of us are computer junkies so I'll probably still be on even when they are over.
My journal for Krinn, from Life Dust, has journal entries and links to casual roleplays I do in the guild. I am usually able to roleplay just about whenever. These are other samples, though they are the ones I use in forum roleplays outside of the B/C and are most likely not going to be the regular length of the posts I'll use for roleplaying here. I like to match my partners posts though, so its never really set in stone, eh?
I hope my "bio" fits okay. Name, age, history, personality, and brief looks sections are all there. I left the history really vague, and its definitely subject to change if it needs to be. I'm not quite sure how the organization that the exorcists all work for works in this B/C, so I didn't want to elaborate in fear that I might get it entirely wrong. But other than that, I hope its alright.
Thanks for reading! <3
Ama. <3 xxx-------
NAME : Claude Whickham.
GENDER : Male.
AGE : Twenty Six.
LOOKS : With sandy blond hair and icy blue eyes, Claude is a guy that looks sort of like the ocean decided to play with him before spitting him back out. Rather tall and lanky, Claude is a little pale, with wavy hair that frames his face and reaches his shoulders when its not tied back into a loose ponytail. Theres almost always a cigarette in his mouth, and when there isn't, its time to worry. Claude is almost always slumped over, or draped across something.
PERSONALITY : Dry and witty, Claude is the kind of man you can expect to pull the trigger before asking questions. Essentially, he'll kill you before you can kill him, and he doesn't care if the way he does it is downright dirty. Claude has morals, but they're rather twisted in the scheme of things. Simply put, the man is like some sort of modern day cowboy. He smokes, he drinks, and he doesn't hesitate to point his gun and shoot. Despite the fact that he'll raise a gun to someone if he thinks they're threatening his existence, Claude is pretty damn lazy. It takes awhile to get him out of bed - and out of the house. However, he is polite to strangers, even though to people he knows he hardly shows respect. Claude can be terribly cat like - falling asleep in the most unorthodox of places, and almost always considering himself on top of the world. Claude is narcissistic and selfish, and doesn't hesitate to admit it. But he'll protect those important - that doesn't mean he'll spare them a second glance after he has before going back to his business. Getting attached is too much of a threat. That doesn't mean he doesn't do it from time to time.
HISTORY : Claude was born to a family that was barely standing on their own. His life story was just another casual case of poverty, and Claude was no stranger to the real world. His father had left them before he'd been born, and he was alone with his mother. She grew ill over time. And he was left to tend to the living corpse in his bed. Every time she opened her mouth however, she would simply tell him "shush, shush, darling, its just me." Eight months after she was diagnosed, they took her away. Claude wasn't introduced to the world of exorcists over time. It all went down with quick, loud "BANG." Everything changed. They took him away - the monsters in the closet, the ones under the bed. They took him away to this world that was darker than his own. A world where the demons were everywhere. And where the only thing that was important was destroying them and climbing the ranks.

E x o r c i s tExterior and Interior: Niromitra Dermokaites, 27. Cinnamon-brown hair. Hazel eyes. 6'3. Takes his job very seriously. Loyal to the Church of Luminarias, passionate. Self-justice.In the Past: No one is more familiar to the rejection of the Church than Niromitra and no one has ever embraced that cruelty with such devotion. He was born to a Luminarian father and a Hindu mother. Since his father came from a long chain of priests, it was a shame when the man did not become a priest and instead married an alien woman. And so, since his mother was seen as a corrupt figure, Niromitra felt the church's blunt hatred. Because while he was the son of God, he was also the son of Ishvara. Niromitra strives to gain acceptance for both his mother and himself. He indulged in study of the Luminarian religion, went to catechism, gained communion and confirmation and finally obtained priesthood. Growing up, Niromitra was not ignorant to the outlying dark forces and the ancient battle due to his father's priest lineage. He will climb the ladder of the organization. No demons frighten him when compared to the brutal punishment of God.Experience: The most recent RPing I've done is Coffee Princess. And my next most-recent RP I was in(a while back) was Angels Demons. If you want more reference material, there is a thread I made a few years ago that I posted all the posting formats I made. But it has my sister's posts mixed in there and it will get confusing to tell which one is mine and which is her's so I'll just give it to you if you want it. 8D;;Online Status: Basically... let's see, I'm online at least twice Monday-Fridays after 3:00 PM Pacific. How long I stay online depends on my homework load since I'm still a lilo schoolgurl. LOL. I usually work the mornings on the weekends so I can go online afterward late into the AMs but they like to change it up on me and have me work the evenings on some weekends.

Recent changes have caused a lack of time and resources, so I am effectively withdrawing my application. I apologize for any inconvenience this might raise. Exorcist Application Name: Aydin Ambroso
Race: Human
Gender: Male
Age: 27
Birthday: 7/07
Hair: Medium length, reaches about his chin in the front and just above his shoulders in the back. It is a natural red, appearing orange, and is styled straight and plain. It often covers his right eye but more so by accident than styling it that way.
Eyes: Green and oh-so-Irish. They're generally calm or laid back, shaped like almonds. Due to their often being half lidded, he sometimes looks tired when he really isn't.
Body: Super pale and easily burnt skin with freckles dotting where sun has touched. His build is athletic but not without muscle; he is tall, about 6'1", and carries himself with pride--thankfully, not too much pride.
Clothes: He usually adheres strictly to the style of the Church while playing around heavily with the colors; his stole is red while his cassock is black. When not in his Church attire, he prefers peacoats and fancy wear to casual style clothing unless he's by himself.
Appearance: Over all, Aydin gives off the air of someone who's got his ideals in order but is also blown around swiftly by the times. When first meeting him, it wouldn't be unusual to think of him a flake or that he doesn't care about his own well being, ready to toss it out with reckless abandon, but he just has different ways of going about things than most.
Personality: Aydin isn't the type to be easily intimidated or choke under stress; in fact, he thrives on stress and deadlines, often waiting until the very last minute to do things so he can do them at top performance. He isn't one to let other people come to harm and will usually attempt to offer himself up for assistance if someone needs it, whether that be just a friendly chat to solve a problem or to go out and defend someone with his life. One of his flaws, however, is that he sometimes forgets that a Church setting is meant to act as a group, to some degree, and will usually attmept to play the "lone hero" role. Despite his good nature, he doesn't let people get too close to him, deciding it best not to wear his emotions on his sleeve. He can sometimes react childishly to things if he becomes frustrated, which would inveitably lead to a disagreement and then a swift apology once he calms down. Aydin takes how he treats people very seriously and he often tries to see how people feel about him so that he can better himself to their requests. First impressions are very important to Aydin and, while they may change in special cases, he usually sticks very closely to them without a second chance.
Likes: Birds, reading, studying, exercising (running), helping people
Dislikes: Demons running amok, spinach, exerting too much effort, breaking promises
Skills: Due to his athletic nature, he's quite quick on his feet. For some time, he's been studying free running (Parkour) and is able to meneuver marginally well with it but he is still learning. He is able to, to some degree, have a connection with birds; if he were to have an animal familiar, it would most definitely be a bird of some sort, and it's likely they are drawn to him from this. Because of that, he is able to easily coax birds towards him, though he hasn't quite figured out how to make this a useful skill.
Weapons: Two pistols, holy water, 'light' magic (very minimal)
Job: Exorcist
Family History: Aydin was an only child with his mother and father. The both of them seemed quite happy, his father being a part of the Church and his mother staying at home with him as she was frequently between jobs. Eventually, his mother began acting strangely, as though she were hiding something, and often seemed weak and tired even if she had slept for most of the day. Aydin's father grew worried and took them both to live in the church, where they figured out what was wrong with her. She had made a contract with a demon in the hopes that it would help their financial situation and allow her to be a better wife and mother but she wasn't able to keep up the bargain properly and the demon was sapping all of her energy. Before long, she withered away and the contract was broken, unfulfilled. They were unable to track the demon, and so it had been deemed "lost".
Biography: From then on, Aydin sought to be a member of the Church, to become an Exorcist unlike his father. His main drive is to find that demon and get revenge for his mother, but he understands not all demons are evil. When a new demon is contacted, he will often ask if they "remember a Maura" but so far the responses have been negative. His father still works at the Church, as a Deacon, but they rarely come in contact with one another these days. Whether this is intentional or not is unknown from his father's side but Aydin feels a great deal of shame, both directed at himself and his father, for the fact that they were unable to do anything to save his mother.
______
Past RPs: I'm pretty much exclusive to the B/C here on Gaia, but worked my way up from Barton Town years ago. My usual haunts now are Life Dust, Ashes of the Wind, Daemonolgie and Lab 305, though I don't own a pet there. I try to post as much as my partner but often go for a little more if their post is a bit shorter than I'd like. Generally I go for 2-3 paragraphs per post but it's dependant on what's happening and I try to cut out the useless details as much as possible.
Time Online: Considering I'm currently without a job and, at the moment, home schooled, I'm pretty much on every day for several hours, ranging from when I wake up to when I go to bed. Recently, RL has been more attentive and I may be gone for a day or two but I still try to hop on at least for a little while whenever possible. I'm mostly free during the weekdays but may disappear during the weekends. If that occurs, I generally try to tell at least one person I'll be gone so they can spread the word as necessary.
Side note: I borrowed the profile from the NPC journals, I hope that's alright... It's a little vague in some parts, especially the History/Bio section, because I was unsure of the more specific inner workings of the Church but this can be fleshed out more if necessary. I tried to keep the most important information present, so it didn't come off as too wordy but also gave a fairly clear picture.

APPLICATION Name: Sei Ten'un
Age: 15 *could be made older if need be*
Appearance: A pale-skinned, sickly child. Sky blue hair, and sky blue eyes. Dishelved. He wears long, over-sized kimonos with big bows.
Bio: An easily possessed child, that lived a sheltered life because his family was worried about his condition. They are japanese, but Christian. They wear kimonos at home; hence Sei's attire. He is sent to church every Sunday to repent for his 'condition'. He does not look forward to church services-easily made bored. (it was found out that he had a natural talent for drawing spirits to him--those being easier to exterminate) He is quiet, and clingy, seemingly withdrawn, and only attached to those who have spent a lot of time with him.
He's very intelligent, and skilled with spells-against his family's beliefs. He's on medication for depression treatment.
Likes: Sleeping, Cats, Good luck charms, Wish dolls
Dislikes: Socializing, Studying, Rain
Possession: Easily possessed by demons. When under the influence of an evil spirit, Sei is prone to violent outbursts, and was previously confined to a windowless room.
edit: He would be frowned upon by any church members most likely.
Availability: Online most of the day. Easy to get a hold of.
RP Examples.

Exorcist Application
Available time: I'm currently without work and studying online, so I am fairly free most days. I'm online a lot lol Experiences: rp- I've role played quite a bit in Life Dust and currently rp in Poke Boys a little. Shop moderation experience- Once upon a time I did own my own shop but sold it a year or two ago, and I participate in several shops so I know how things work relatively :3 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Name: Samuel Wolfe Gender: male Age: 24 Looks: Dark black tousled hair that his grown so his bangs cover up the right of of his face, A single bright gray eye; the other that's hidden under his hair is a dull sightless red. He has a very handsome face on the left side but hidden beneath his hair on the right Samuel is disfigured by a web pattern of scars going from his hair line, over his eye just bellow his cheek bone. His skin tone is slightly tanned, his built is short and lithe; he doesn't look like a threat though as most know looks are deceiving. Personality: Usually one to remain in his own thoughts, he will engage in conversation only when he feels its necessary. Needless to say hes a very quiet, soft spoken man whom is kind yet a little distant at the best of times. Samuel does try to be personable and not scare people off when conversing with others, very polite and well spoken no matter the person. Due to past experiences he finds himself a little leery of others, very calculating in what he divulges to those he makes contact with. There are those rare times when he finds the mask of contempt he wears cracks and he has a moments of playfulness. History: Samuel had a regular run of the mill childhood; loving parents, wonderful siblings and a faithful dog. His father worked as an longshoremen, his mother worked in a bakery in town while the oldest child watched over Samuel and his younger brother. Everything was rather generic really, till one evening Samuel's father returned home from a long days work with a box. Now this box was anything but normal, it was small, black lacquered with strange carvings all over the lid. It had been given to Samuel's father for safe keeping by a merchant whom saw the man as a very honest and trustworthy. If they refrained from opening the box; fore if they did he would know, that they would be replayed for their troubles. Now with Samuel, being eleven years old, was as typical as boys came with a heightened sense of curiosity. This box, with its rules and warnings, was just begging for him to open and take a peek. So, when his parents were at work, his older sister occupied with her needle point; Samuel and his little brother hurried to acquire the box from their parents room. Sitting on the floor with the box; eager nervous fingers ran across the lip of the box before thumbs delicately pushed the lip up. Everything seemed normal till a black fog seeped out of the box, curling around young Samuel till his brother let out the most horrifying shriek. Then, just like that, everything went dark. Like a candle had been blown out and Samuel was lost for a year, tucked away in the darkness. When he awoke, things were never the same for the once generic, normal family. They were tainted; their son once a monster and now a disfigured reminder of what they so desperately wanted to forget. The boy was still a monster in their eyes, to be feared and hidden away with shame. With this in mind, Samuel took to the church of light and they took him in to teach him the ways of the church. He wanted to exact revenge on creatures like the one that stole his life and family from him and to prevent it from happening to others. With such determination he became well crafted in the ways of exorcisms and traveled from church to church as a missionary of sorts till his feet found him in La’To. Edit:* critiques welcomed <3

The Ten Commandments Ten Reasons to Hire Count 1. Hello, konnichiwa, bonjour, hola <3
Hello hello. The name's Count. heart I feel a little silly applying since I'm relatively new, but I really love this shop. D': If nothing else, this application is a good way to introduce myself?
2. I have no life
No seriously. It's sad, but I am quite addicted to the internet. I am literally online from the moment I get home from school every day until I finally drift asleep at 1-6 am. When I have computer access, I even log in during class. If I get really desperate, my phone has a reasonably fast browser. I am a very available little chickodee who lives in EST.
3. Everyone loves a man with experience ;D
To be perfectly honest, I still consider myself fairly new to the B/C forums. I have been roleplaying in Barton since the days when dial-up connections were still popular. I own a rather large guild on another site. BUT I have only participated in three shops. That being said, I was very committed to those three shops. I also am currently staff in Pokeboys (Manager / Co-Owner). There may still be a few things I don’t understand, but I am confident I won’t disappoint – especially since the Exorcist position centers around role playing.
4. How I Roll (RPing)
Heeeere I am going to dump role playing samples. Most of them are a little old, but I think they’re enough to sample my style. I tend to match word count with whomever I’m role playing with (quality over quantity?), but I am flexible.
[X] [X] [X] [X] [X] [X] [X] [X] [X] [X] [X] [Barton X]
Mmmmn, a lot of these characters are named Kaosu. The nickname is sort of my signature. Those lovely red heads are by no means the same person as my exorcist. o Ao
5. The Character
Name: Lucien Valjean Leroux
Nicknames: ”Kaosu”, Lulu, Lucy, Elle, Luce
Age: Twenty nine
Appearance: Effing amazing. With shoulder length red hair, a bright green eye (his left one is missing, but that is a story for later), a fair complexion, and a taste for jewelry, Kaosu is not the manliest of men. In fact, most of his wardrobe is composed of sentimental rather than practical items. He always wears cross stud earrings, several simple gold charms (for protection), and gloves (white business, black for pleasure). Aside from these few small exceptions, he prefers to stick to plain black clothes. He walks with a certain proud composure; he is a ring master and everyone else is a clown.
6. The Exposition
Lucien’s family always struggled when it came to money. His mother waited tables, his dad worked for a moving company, and he attended school, flipping burgers on the side. Their life may have lacked glamor, but it was for the most part stable. Until Abel was born. Abel, Abel, Abel. The kid was a prodigy. He was brilliant. By the time Abel turned ten, he already had started a lucrative online business. Things were looking up. The family bought a house, left their dingy old apartment, and settled happily into the middle class. Abel completely eclipsed his older sibling. Luce spent his teen years suffering through the bitter sting of jealousy. And one morning it all came crashing down.
Abel was found dead. No, Abel was found more than dead. Abel was in pieces. And guess who was found unconscious in his room covered in blood?
No one asked him for an explanation. Frankly, Luce could not have given one if he tried. His parents quietly cleaned up. Abel’s slaughter went into the records as unsolved. Not a word of blame was spoken.. but the accusations of "murder, murder" did not need to be voiced to be heard. The moment Luce turned sixteen he struck out on his own to escape such phantoms. Like most “independent” teenagers, he ended up on the streets. He became "Kaosu". He adapted well, earning a modest living by breaking into houses and snatching valuables. Nothing changed. Until he robbed a house of god.
7. The Exorcist
When Kaosu broke into that church, he screwed up. A priest spotted him stealing silver and managed to corner him. According to Kaosu, this great holy man let him go free on good faith with nothing more than the statement, “Use this precious silver to become a better man.” This encounter transformed him forever by introducing him to the Brotherhood of Luminarias. At first he ignored the father’s advice, spending his ill gained money to continue his vice-filled lifestyle. Fate intervened, setting him on the right path - with a heart attack.
After passing out in an alleyway, Kaosu awoke one morning in an unfamiliar hospital where a cold, uninterested doctor flatly informed him he had untreatable cardiac disease. He was slowly but surely dying. His heart beats counted the seconds before his breathing stopped.
Death saved Kaosu's life. Kao was forced for the first time to think about his future. He needed to find meaning in his existence before everything ended once and for all. In this time of need, he turned to The Church of Light. He vowed to alter his ways that very morning and sought priesthood the very next day. Now he only has a handful of months left. He intends to use them wisely, redeeming himself through the Church's work. According to Kaosu, only through purging the world of filth can he cleanse his filthy past.
Of course, Kaosu is hardly an honest man. His explanation has one fatal flaw: Kaosu does not believe in religion. So what is he really trying to accomplish? What could be so important that he would waste his final days chasing demons and playing in the dark?
8. The Character's Character
Lucien Valjean Leroux. The complicated name does not suit him. When he was young, one of his friends called him "Chaos" to mock his attitude. Kaosu - a phonetic spelling of that half hearted nick name - stuck.
Kaosu is eerily calm, impossibly patient, and very composed. Pissing him off is about as feasible as moving an ocean with a bucket. Part of this is because he is vain: his confidence runs so deep that insults barely scratch the surface. He has incredibly high standards for his own behavior and even higher standards for the behavior of others.The other part is because Kao simply does not care. At all. His death clock is ticking, and he does not have time left to worry about making friends. The Grim Reaper lurking on his shoulder has taught him to be blunt, reckless, and indifferent. He always speaks his mind. The paradigm of the alignment “chaotic neutral”, ethics, values, rules, and even his own reputation mean nothing to him. He does not go out of his way to screw with people, but good luck trying to convince him to help you. He does not believe in “right or wrong”, only pure unadulterated reason and ambition. Honestly, he would rather preach to his victims (oh how he LOVES to hear himself talk) than kill. Nothing gives him more of a thrill than picking apart a stranger's insecurities one by one and leaving them open to fester for a while. Besides, murder is messy. Blood is thick, reeks of iron, and stains. Some might call him a pansy – the mere sight of the stuff sends shivers up his spine – but when duty calls he is always willing wring someone's neck with a chord. Less clean up.
9. The Character's Quirk
Kaosu has quite a few loose screws, but I'll mention this one in particular because it's relevant to my plans for him. o wo;
Kao, despite his lack of a belief in religion, strongly believes in everything else. He will not walk under a ladder. When he counts, he skips over thirteen. Before sleeping, he salts his windows and doors to keep out ghosts. He has countless little superstitious rituals to encourage luck (or ward off bad luck) that he performs every single day. To others, they may seem silly, but for Kao they are absolutely compulsively necessary. They comfort him. He does not feel safe without them. The one day he forgot them, he woke up the next morning with his brother's blood splattered on his walls.
10. Closing
I apologize for the wall of text. I am pretty long winded. OTL;;
Thank you for taking the time to read ~ !
