APPS ARE OPEN!

HELLO MY MORPHIN PEEPS!! As recently discussed, apps for new players are now open once again! Now that we’ve finally gotten the game rolling a bit, it’s time to bring in some new additions to the anti-Yeerk resistance, and I’m excited to expand our cast to include an even wider variety of absolutely trash resistance fighters! Here’s how apps for new characters will work for the game now that we’ve squeaked past the initial game start period.
Since Alternamorphs is a semi-private game that we’d like to keep smallish, players are generally invited to app. If you’re interested in apping but you haven’t spoken to me about it, I encourage you to do so! However, since there are some people who have been waiting a while (actual months) to jump in the action, if there’s enough interest you may be asked to wait a little while, or your character may not be intro’d right off the bat. This depends entirely on how many people wind up apping in over the next few weeks, so it might not be an issue at all.
Since this is post-game start, how each additional character winds up joining the resistance will be handled on an individual basis. There’s a section for how your character finds out about/joins the resistance in the current version of the app; this can be threaded out if you want, but you’re free to handwave it if you want. Just as long as we have a rough idea of how it happened for continuity reasons! Multiple characters are free to have group scenarios for joining up as long as everyone’s on the same page for it, too.
Right now there isn’t a hard-and-fast cap for how many characters are allowed in the game; rather, I’d like to see how the game feels as it grows bit by bit and close apps/set a cap as needed. To this end, I’d like to avoid introing large groups of characters all at once, but that said, there is most definitely room in the game for at least a few more characters, and I’m excited to bring new people and characters into the game!
As always, you can contact me on plurk at
runawayballista if you’ve got any questions, or leave a comment here. In theory I also lurk in the AIM chat itsmorphintime when I’m home. I’m happy to help hash out any AU or resistance-joining details if you’re not sure or want to make sure something flies. The app process here is not especially rigorous; the apps serve more as character sheets for my modding purposes, and a chance for me to veto anything that doesn’t fit with the game setting. Alternamorphs runs on the rule of fun!
