`` Beta Auditions ||all

[Pocket Kitsune]

If you want your character to be the beta male or female of any of the four reigning packs of Dachau, please read through this thread entirely. Then reply with the form at the bottom filled out as completely as possible. Good luck to everyone! Auditions end June 17th,/b], although we may announce our decisions a bit earlier if the staff finds that you truly have an outstanding bio.


In light of previous inactivity with original betas, we ask that you read the following regulations carefully before applying for the beta position.


` Be active. We cannot stress the importance of this rule enough. While you're not expected to be on every day, we do expect a minimum of three posts per week.

`Be aware of site rules and regulations, and familiarize yourself with the plot and guidebook.

` Your character must be accepted before you can audition.

` A current roleplay sample is required. It must be written by you, and it must pertain to the role you are auditioning for in some way. If you're having difficulty coming up with a sample, PM one of the staff and we'll prompt you with a scenario.

`If you're frequently museless or busy, we would prefer that you not audition for a high rank.

`Proofread and spellcheck your application. Proper grammar and spelling is expected.

`If you are re-auditioning for the part of an beta, please state so somewhere in your application. Please note that if you originally played the beta of a certain pack, you may not be reassigned that pack again, particularly so if you were not active in the past.

`Please make sure that the character that you are auditioning with fits the pack you're choosing. I.e., a Kalte or Asmeth wolf would not be warm and welcoming, etc.

[Pocket Kitsune]

Character: Morte
Gender: Male
Age: Three
Pack: Asmeth
Reason: Morte is a level-headed individual. He is the sort who could be in perfect synchronicity with the alphas, though not to the point of blind agreement. In fact, though he can be contrary, it is with a firmness meant to persuade rather than outright deny the opinions of others. The voice of reason, one might say. Though he is not entirely passive, he is far from a creature of aggression, and so would be able to at once keep the balance of power stable, while having calm influence enough to make sure that his words are heard.

He believes very much in the concept of 'the good of the pack' versus the 'good of the individual.' He is willing to put the wishes of a judicious and wise leader above his own, as long as it does nothing to compromise the pack as a whole. Because he is also a deep thinker, and is often lost in thought, he has many valid and unique opinions and perspectives on things, and so would be very good for advisement situations.

Perhaps most important of all, is that his level of ambition is practically nonexistant--meaning that one need never fear that he would try to usurp their position. He is content where he is, and is most comfortable when he can be a quiet observer rather than a leader.

Active?: Very much so. I'm on at least twice a day for about 3-4 hours.

RP Sample: Most of you already know my style. However, if the alpha of Asmeth would like a sample, this section will be erased and one will be provided.

Character: Venatio
Gender: Male
Age: One
Pack: Dünen
Reason: Venatio is extremely dedicated, and will do a lot for the pack. He is fast and quiet, and is great for reconnisance missions, and is great at making plans -- and finding flaws in them, as well. He can train young ones, if need be, and has a talent for knowing the strengths (and sometimes weaknesses) of other wolves.
Active?: I can post IC at least once a week, usually more. Cbox, I can do that a bunch of times per day. I don't know, maybe 10 or 20 times a day? No exaggeration.

RP Sample: Pocket, can you PM me a situation please?

[Takau]

Character: Takau
Gender: Male
Age: Three
Pack: Kalte
Reason: Kalte has experience as a high-ranking pack member from other lands (I mean this both in terms of Takaus life and my RP experience) and believes in keeping packs strong. He believes that a strong, level-headed Alpha needs a strong level-headed Beta to keep them in check, and to support them in times of need, or in times that the pack is in a state of turmoil or disaster.
Active?: I am positive I could be active, both in IC and out. I think I could post once or twice every day or so in Character, and the C-box I would use generally every day, a couple of times.

RP Sample:The snow slipped off of Takau’s thick, heavily camouflaged coat, as he stood from his hiding spot in a particularly dense group of trees. He breathed in the smells of the morning, the clean, fresh air, the first signs of a cold spring; But there was only one smell he was interested in. The smell of new wolves, wolves that did not belong to his pack. Intruders. The scent was easy to catch and follow, as these wolves did nothing to cover their tracks, and went through the easiest of routes. Perhaps they wanted to be caught, save them having to find the pack? Or perhaps they were just foolhardy young wolves, trying to get through their territory as quickly and easily as possible? Either way, Takau was going to catch them. There was definitely more than two, possibly four, due to the mismatch of different prints in the snow. The sides of the tracks had not yet started to crumble inwards, and the ground at the bottom had still not compacted into hard ice; The tracks were recent.
Suddenly he caught sight of them. He rounded into the end of a valley, which once held a great river. But the river was now long gone, disappeared long before Takau had entered these lands. The intruders were halfway through the valley, wearily placing one foot in front of the other laboriously. They had extremely thin coats compared to Takau, and they were grey. Forest wolves. Takau was surprised the three of them had survived that long, and had not got lost. They were clearly not used to such hostile conditions. Powering his legs up the side of the valley, Takau decided to stop them before he lost them in the wind that was quickly threatening to become a snowstorm. He easily caught up to them, his body much more suited to this terrain than their thin, starved forms.
He watched them for a while, keeping a beady eye on their slow, sluggish motions through the thick powdery snow. After the youngest of them collapsed in a heap in the snow, Takau decided to put them out of their misery. They were obviously not an immediate threat, to him or his pack.
He flew down the side of the valley with ease, kicking up snow with his powerful hindquarters. Stopping in front of the bedraggled group proudly, he growled, “You’d better tell me why you’re in our territory, and quick, before I put you out of your misery.”


(X3 Sorry if it's poop.)

Edited your post to better read it; bold got a little crazy. Annd as for a scenario... give us a sample of Takau starting a hunt on a herd of deer, please. <3

[Takau]

I already got a prompt off of pocket kitsune, but I'll do both Rp examples if you wish?

[»Ιmαgε]

Oh no, just pick one or the other and we'll be good. :3 But thank you!

[Pocket Kitsune]

Accepted. Congratulations! Ordinarily, I'd tell you that you were now free to post in Kalte. However, since you already have an active thread in the Sortiron, finish that up first. Phrino will assign the rank to him then.

[Takau]

Yay, thank you so much!
