Character Sign-ups
Players may sign-up for up to two characters. There are three types of characters to play with. Once your quoted with an approval, feel free to begin plotting with other players! We'll have an event blast chat, as well as an ooc thread available for plotting.
GUEST AND STAFF SIGN-UPS ARE NOW CLOSED
Guests
these are the industry specialists who are visiting. Professions may involve lawyers, mathematicians, insurance inspectors, fantasy writers/publishers/filmmakers, special effects creators, psychologists, sociologists, theme park designers/moguls, zoologists, crypto-zoologists. Not only have they been invited to help test the park over the weekend, they're being paid a generous fee as consultants. all guests are human the first portion of this event will involve some randomized grouping, but guests have a "buddy-up" option, where they can be paired up with another guest character for this portion, so they'll always be in the same group for that section. these characters are the most "on rails" and will receive the most prompting/and are also a bit harder to drop and pick up if you miss several days

Staff
these are staff member of Wonder Park, and they fall into three categories. LAB STAFF covers the creature creation and incubation process. SECURITY seeks out and deals with any perceived dangers both from and to the staff creatures. This ranges from weeding out aggressive creatures, careless staff members, securing creatures and facilities against environmental dangers (such as hurricanes,) to making sure there are no information leaks or island trespassers. HANDLERS interact the most with creatures after they leave the lab environment. They're in charge of the feeding, care, and maintenance of the creatures. There's a lot of crossover between these groups, depending on one's skill set, so it's not at strictly divided as Deus divisions. all are human have been informed that the creatures are created using "the power of Imagination" or "emotional energies" rather than FEAR, while they have some information, it's been cropped an skewed as the Island's owner wishes to make thing more marketable and socially acceptable. these characters are somewhat "on rails" receiving a fair amount of prompting / while it's preferable that they stick around and guide guests/offer information, they can also drop in and out citing regular work reasons.

Creatures NOTICE!!!!! The less desirable creatures that didn't fall within the Park's marketing needs have escaped from the containment facility! THIS MEANS GHOSTS, ZOMBIES, REAPERS, AND REALLY SCARY s**t IS RUNNING AROUND LOOSE. SIGN UP FOR THAT FUN OK!
these are the park's main feature and selling point, they are creatures of lore and myth fully brought to life, these are Halloween creatures that were created for the Park they have never been to Halloween and have no knowledge of it they are unable to speak out loud but (unknown to staff) have a mild telepathy with one another the park mostly wants to showcase more fantasy-friendly creatures, dragons, unicorns, mermaids, etc so those are what end up roaming the park more unpalatable creatures do end up getting created by accident, and people can sign up for them, but they're kept in a hidden containment facility where such creatures are regularly shipped off to another site (this area will be open for rp, but without prompts and human interaction for the first portion of the event) if a creature has a shifter ability, they are kept in either their beast form or a halfway form. Human-appearing creatures are not allowed to roam the park rather than gates, creatures are kept within their assigned park areas by way of a microchip system that keeps them within the boundaries of their living area. Leaving an area causes unpleasant dissipation are given a bare minimum of FEAR in the form of pellets, a side effect of this food is the appearance of docility which wears off if too much time passes between meals these characters are off-rail. They'll receive the least prompts and be the most self paced characters to play. Sign-ups for them will be open the entirety of the event, and they'll be easy to pick up and drop as needed

Imagination Island: The smaller of the two islands houses the main resort, The Realms, as well as the public laboratories, and a small carnival area.
The Realms: 3 Buildings, 5 upper floors, one basement. Each building contains: rooms, a small infirmary station, industrial kitchens, laundry facilities, staff housing, pool.
The Beach: Docks for boat access, typical beach resort features (bar, concession stands, out door shower, lifeguard station)
Helipad: At least one helicopter waits here at all times.
2 Research Labs: Lab A: designed to be public friendly for tours, features a small theatre, an open incubation lab, as well as a hatching and infant care lab. A very bright and open facility with colourful decoration.
Lab B: actual incubation/infant care lab. Security here is more obvious, the setting more business like. This is the main lab for the actual creature creation process.
Main Security HQ: Housed near the lab buildings, this is the control center for the park's security.
Carnival area: This is ICly under construction still. So far it contains small buildings to hold traditional concession stands and includes several rides (a massive ferris wheel, elaborate park theme'd carousel, and a modest roller coaster.
Main Visitor Center: This follows the same layout as the park's other visitor centers, but is three times larger to accommodate large crowds.
Small Unnamed Island: Houses one lab, no guests allowed. Containment facility for unusable creatures.
Wonder Park: The main island is accessible via three bridges (two wooden, one large steel.) There are four main areas, each containing a different theme of creature and an environment created to showcase them in a setting that seems "natural" for them. There are no fences (creatures are kept to their areas via microchip.) There are three decent sized bodies of water, and one river boat ride. Each area has at least one visitor center and one staff facility (used mainly by handlers and security personnel.)
Electric Roads: Guest travel across the larger distance via cars on the island's electric roads. Simply input your itinary into the vehicle's computer and it will take you along your path at a leisurely, controlled pace, stopping in park areas when you wish to get out and explore on foot.
Visitor Centers: Each of these contains a small infirmary, an information area, giftshop, several restaurants that are intended to follow the area's theme, restrooms, and a play/rest area.
Boat Stations: Beginning at the north point between the Faerie Forest and the Fantasy Fields, there is a scenic river boat ride that takes visitor's south to the delta visitor center, as well as a convenient bridge back to Imagination Island.
Faerie Forest: A lush, green forest with a distinctly whimsical bent. Full of shady groves, butterflies, dragon flies, fireflies, inviting little nooks, and a lovely shining lake. Most of the buildings here follow a high fantasy theme.
Fantasy Fields: A rolling, open plain with scattered trees here and there. The buildings are close to the edges of the area, and unobtrusive. It's visitor center is housed on the delta, and reachable via river boat ride.
Curiosity Coast: A tropical environment, the coast includes a beach, a waterfall, and a unique underwater visitor center that allows a fantastic view of the Park's water-dwelling creatures.
Monster Mountain: Reachable through a path carved up it's cliff face, the mountainous area contains a small pine forest, a crater lake, and the top of the falls. Much more rocky and sparse, this area maintains a more spooky ambiance than the rest of the island.
Upscale Resort Island: Much like The Realms except kinda ridiculous and with better views.
Staff & Guest ID Badge: edit with personal portrait/infos, graffiti, damage, stickers, etc.
Creature Profiles: edit with personal portrait/infos, damage to computer screen/data

I'M SIGNING UP A CREATURE
Name: Cordelia (but the humans keep calling her Ariel) Species: Mermaid Park Location: Underwater center in Curiosity Coast Physical Description: I'm just going to say a generic looking design inspired from the one potc used for their mermaids (underwater of course, since their upper halves change to look more humanoid when they're above the water) so this is her basic look underwater - click Brief Character Profile: and above is click and I fully understand/expect that the majority of interaction will be through a glass so she'll be in her underwater form for most of it XD Your AIM & Minipet SN: Noinahz, Alania
Name: Kipper ( Kip for short ) Species: Harpy Park Location: Monster Mountain Physical Description:Looks like this Brief Character Profile: A s**t disturber. Kip loves to piss off/pester/annoy both creatures and humans alike and will do it in whatever way he can. Whether its swooping down at them, sitting perched on their backs, clawing them, and more, he'll do it. Your AIM & Minipet SN: OnionGrump ( same for both )
Totally made a card for him *___*

I'M SIGNING UP A CREATURE
Name: Gemma Species: Gargoyle Park Location: Monster Mountain Physical Description: A big grey stone gargoyle, solidly built, with jet black eyes and greenish moss/lichen 'hair'. Has wings far too small to realistically support flight, horns, and a stubby tail. She has large but blunted fangs and claws. Brief Character Profile: Gemma is big, lumbering, and clumsy, but she has a sweet and gentle soul. She is somewhat conflicted about her appearance, feeling that she's a little too scary - and yet, a part of her actually likes it when she scares others, and then she feels guilty about that, and then... feels. She is also loud and boisterous and finds standing perfectly still, as most gargoyles must, to be a bit of a chore. Minipet SN: Sosiqui

I'M SIGNING UP A STAFF CHARACTER
Staff Name: Tobias Bennett Job Description: Security Physical Description: 6'1", Tall, relatively brawny and slightly muscular (but not overly so), bright orange hair, golden brown eyes, dimples. Brief Character Profile: He's pretty laid back, but he's also got a bit of an edge to him, especially when it comes to dealing with the creatures in the park. He's boisterous and cheerful, and he can be fun to hang around, but if he's irritated, or if he's dealing with the creatures, that cheerfulness turns into mild sarcasm, slight bitterness, and sardonic comments here and there. He's strong-minded, but tell him to back off and he usually will. Your AIM & Minipet SN: fredhasfreckles / kuromizuki

I'M SIGNING UP A STAFF CHARACTER
Staff Name: September Ignacia Pyke. Job Description: Handler. Physical Description: 5' 10", bony and all sorts of long limbed, extremely freckled over face, arms, shoulders, back, and legs. Dark brown, unruly hair, blue eyes. Brief Character Profile: September is laidback, easy-going, and that kind of guy that buys you drinks when you're having a bad day even though you've only met him last night. He's a fan of swirling around in rolling chairs and acting like an overgrown teenager half of the time instead of doing serious work, and he's got a good heart but he sometimes forgoes logic for emotion. Your AIM & Minipet SN: Kupuri / peppermintpuri@hotmail.com. (my aim messes up a lot so please let me know if the blast chat invite doesnt work or something Q___Q) & minipet sn is noiresu!

I'M SIGNING UP A CREATURE
Name: Argos. Species: Red dragon. Park Location: Monster Mountain. Physical Description: Large, heavyweight dragon. Argos's scales are dark red with a black underbelly, and his wings, tail, and forelegs are all spotted through with dark green patches. His horns are large and curved with smaller, less prominent ones surrounding them, big enough that when he sleeps, birds and other creatures can pretty much perch there. Brief Character Profile: Perpetually ill-tempered, but entirely too lazy to do anything about the constant annoyances (read: kipper) in his life. Argos is territorial, extremely vain, and possesses all of the qualities of a temperamental fire-breather. But give him something shiny and he might not eat you. Maybe.

I'M SIGNING UP A CREATURE
Name: Shu Fang, though occasionally referred to as Falkor? Species: Luck/Pearl dragon Park Location: Monster Mountain Physical Description: Pretty much like this, but more fluffy. Like so. Only he's all white, with iridescent scales peeking . He is extremely possesive over a very large black pearl that he carries with him everywhere. Brief Character Profile: A bit of an aloof grump. He's not outright hostile, but generally comes off as indifferent towards other creatures or situations. He would prefer to be left alone with his pearl, but considering his home, that's not usually an option. Prone to napping while curled around his pearl. Your AIM & Minipet SN: Beejouxin/Beejoux
