PLAYER COUNT: 18/55

QUEUE

Subnautica runs on a player cap of 55 players as we feel this is the maximum number of players we can handle with this size of mod team. Applicants can submit at any time, but applications will not be judged until there are fewer than 55 players in the game. Applications will be judged on a first-come, first-serve basis. To be sure that applicants are still interested when a slot is available, we will contact them with a request to reply within 72 hours regarding their interest.

Please send us your application as a comment to this page! The subject line should be CHARACTER NAME | FANDOM | RESERVED/UNRESERVED. Put the OOC information in the first comment. Reply to that comment with the rest of the information or a link to your app.

IC INFORMATION
NAME: Mettaton
AGE: Is a robot, so does not have an exact age.
CANON: Undertale
CANON POINT: Post true pacifist ending.
CANON INFORMATION: Has his own Undertale wikia page!

PERSONALITY:

Glitz! Glamour! It's what he wants and is willing to step on those who cared about him before he made it big! Yes, it's the usual story of the fame-hungry extrovert forgetting their routes as they become blinded by the spotlight. Mettaton wasn't always such a terrible asshole to his loved ones, but he got better as his mistakes were - literally - beaten into him. For such a perfect, handsome, unbearably attractive and charismatic superstar, he has a lot of glaring flaws. Only a lucky few truly know how terrible he can be, however.

Being a superstar means a few things - and the most important one is knowing how to read and please the crowd. Mettaton is very flashy, bombastic and excitable, with a presence that commands all eyes to be on him. Or rather, he tries to draw them, via his voice, his ready-for-the-camera way of speaking, and his upbeat, always-positive nature. He knows what the audience wants - drama, bloodshed, romance, action! Because that's what he wants, naturally. Whether he's doing the news, cooking, singing, or running a quiz show, he's talented and sets a very enthusiastic stage for all his monster fans watching at home! However, this attention-hungry egomaniac, so used to being the stars in the eyes of everyone and rolling in his riches from being the underground's only star with his own branding for everything, seemed to forget that these are people.

Mettaton, for all his high-and-mighty superstar talk about himself, did take good care of his employees. He would remind everyone they were doing a good job, brightening up their day with a smile, a bit of praise, and a thumbs-up. His fans, though he glossed over their responses, phoned in on his final show to tell him how much he means to them; he makes them laugh and smile and there's a Mettaton-shaped hole in their Mettaton-shaped hearts! One of the entertainer robot's most fatal flaws is he is so wrapped up in himself - his dreams, his wants, his goals - that he forgets to acknowledge how important everyone else is to him. He genuinely loves his fans, and feels terrible when he forgets.

And he did forget. He hurt and stepped on his beloved cousin, his first fan and the person he loves the most, by abandoning them to follow his dreams - breaking a promise. He began to separate from his best friend that built him his sexy robot body he always dreamed of having, starting to trash talk her. And only when his fanbase made it clear how much he meant to them, he started to sort himself out. A reality check, of sorts; and he knew, even with all his apologizing and effort, he'd hurt these two people badly. Having a history dealing with individuals with emotional problems and low self-esteem, he realized he'd done something very cruel and it shocks him back into being less of an untouchable idol and more of a real, caring individual. Superstars should love and support their fans, and that's what he's started aiming to do. Even if he gets wrapped up in his work and being a diva, just shake him a little to bring him back down.

ABILITIES:
- is a robot (runs on electrical energy for his battery, does feel pain, does not eat or require air, water, etc., can "die" if his core is destroyed)
- can discharge electricity from his hands and his heart-shaped core
- is a good singer!

INVENTORY: -

MEMORY ALTERATION:
Mettaton believes this little trip is a chance to promote his brand (and his band!) and gain a bigger, more varied fanbase for his handsome self!

IC INFORMATION
NAME: Loki
AGE: Looks 10, is actually 2,000...ish........
CANON: The Mythical Detective Loki RAGNAROK (manga)
CANON POINT: Chapter 25, post-confrontation with Baldr.
CANON INFORMATION: Wiki link.

PERSONALITY:
Loki is the trickster god of Norse mythology, exiled to the world of humans and stripped of most of his magic. Forced to take on the form of a child, he's tasked with exorcising the evil in human hearts in order to earn his way back to Asgard -- or so he's told. To do so he runs a detective agency, trusting that the cases suited to his needs will come to him.

Loki is notorious in the world of gods. He has many reputations: an evil god, a clever god, beautiful, a playboy, a fearsome and ruthless sorcerer. On Midgard, possibly in part to his powerless form, he's just kinda lazy. When there are no cases for him to handle, he can usually be found reading a book in his study, indulging in sweets, or taking a stroll around town. In truth, he likes to be left in peace... which is unfortunate when his many friends and acquaintances like to cannonball into his life and/or attempt to assassinate him. Some parts of his reputation are deserved -- he's resourceful and inventive, has a way with the opposite sex, and possessed powers to rival Odin himself. However, his supposedly evil nature is a fabrication.

No matter which way you slice it, Loki's a pretty decent guy. In a good mood he's as quick to smile as anyone else, and he sticks to the rules as far as they can take him. He isn't prone to charity, per se, but he has a soft spot for good people and likes to surreptitiously help them when they're in need. He dislikes lying, once scolding a group of children for lying to their teacher, and often finds himself being dragged around because he doesn't have the heart to say no. He's very fond of his family, sometimes known to dote on them, and is unerringly faithful to his friends.

Which isn't to say he's always straightforward. He holds his secrets close, even when it would benefit him to reveal them. He seldom shares his deeper emotions, preferring to bottle them up and deal with his problems alone. He believes in being self-sufficient, and thus has few qualms about letting other people walk into trouble when he could otherwise have warned them away from it. One could call him laissez-faire. Even when bad rumours circulate around him or he's being falsely accused, he usually only offers the truth in brief before letting people think what they want to think. Reputation isn't important to him.

What is important to him is peace and comfort. On one hand, this means he's largely harmless until he gets a goal in mind. On the other hand, it means disruptions in his life are in danger of being met with complaints, disdain, or outright dismissal if he deems them a waste of his time. In fact, faced with a growing and increasingly outrageous pantheon on Midgard, he himself becomes more and more susceptible to wild outbursts and silly reactions. While he's often the "straight man" of the group, he's not immune to being outrageous himself -- especially when feeling particularly bored or in need of drastic solutions. His moods can swing wildly, going from curious to wildly affronted to apathetic in the span of three panels. But in the end, he'll be happy being the first one to walk away so he can go back to minding his own business and living life at his own pace.

While a number of characters comment on how Loki's life on Midgard has softened him, he still retains a godly perspective on life. Even in child form, he tends to walk into situations like he's invincible -- killing a god is a great sin -- and doesn't dwell long on human death and violence. He spends much of his time mulling things over and casually enjoying life like he has all the time in the world (which he does); according to Thor, "Everyone feels the need to space out, right, Loki? It's the godly thing to do!" He's content to wait things out and see how developments unfold, even in such dire matters as his banishment, the chaining of his son Fenrir, and the casting of his son Jormungand into the ocean. As a result, those around him may sometimes feel neglected or forgotten. He also seems to possess a broad capacity for love, seen in some of his fellow gods as well; he is most devoted to the mother of his children, Angrboda, but also harbors (deeply, deeply repressed) feelings for his assistant Mayura and a fleeting love for the goddess Freyja.

He has a weakness for cute girls, animals, and sweets. He also has a more literal weakness to water, being physically unable to swim in human form; he sinks like a rock unless aided. While he isn't afraid of water itself, he gets a bit nervous at the prospect of being in deep water and has been shown to panic when plunged into it without warning.

ABILITIES:
DISCLAIMER... Many of Loki's powers are stated vaguely at best, they just kind of happen without much overt explanation and pop up without warning. I'll be trying to stick to what is known while leaving a bit of wiggle room for creativity. As of his canon point he has a great deal of his magic returned, but he's still not as powerful as he would be in adult form.

Shapeshifting. Horses come most naturally to him; has also turned into a bird and fish.
Exorcism. He can collect and store evil in his staff Laevateinn, or he can consume it and gain a temporary boost in magic.
Magic. As a child, most of his magic revolves around Laevateinn; it can zap or knock people out with a tap, repel oncoming objects, act as a shock absorber, and destroy lesser objects. He can also bind people to other forms; he does so to his serpent son Jormungand, allowing him to take on the body of a young man. Has also forced people to physically relive their memories (while tagging along for the ride).
Summoning. Once a powerful summoner, he now only seems able to summon small, harmless spirits of dubious value. But sometimes those harmless spirits have relevant knowledge?!
Encyclopedia-like knowledge. Has been known to provide extremely detailed lectures on any topic, from astronomy to anthropology to marine biology. No subject seems too obscure for him.

INVENTORY:
Just his staff Laevateinn! Though he typically doesn't carry it physically, instead poofing it into existence when he needs it. Forged from (a replica of) the bracelet Draupnir, it hosts great magical ability and can store the essence of evil.

MEMORY ALTERATION:
Loki will remember being sent to Iniidae as a punishment and/or redemption opportunity for triggering Ragnarok. It seems a bit random and unfair, but what can he do...

SAMPLE:
All of Loki's tired thoughts evacuate his brain at once.

"... Eh?"

The oppressive glass tube hallway presses his voice back onto him. He turns his head slowly. Ocean to his left. Ocean to his right. As he tilts his head back, a growing look of dread creeps onto his face, and the sad, horrible, and long overdue truth congeals like an abandoned cup of milk in his soul.

"EHHH?!"

The glass thrums with his authentically godlike shrieking and he falls to his knees, clutching his head. "What is this? Have they sent me to hell? This is hell, isn't it?!" A small child muttering to himself about his damnation might be concerning to passersby, but for better or worse, there are none to witness him -- just that cold, silent ocean suffocating him all around. But as much as this may be his own personal hell, he knows it isn't the real thing. After all, he's been to Hel, and that place is infinitely colder, incomparably lonely. Hel herself would consider herself fortunate to be in his shoes...

With a sigh, he straightens and looks around him with a more open eye. He's heard of underwater research facilities, but they're supposed to be small and cramped. From this glass tube alone, he can already tell that isn't the case here. The rest of the facility is all sleek tubes and modern, perhaps even futuristic domes. Tourists would probably kill to come here. As he peers out into the gloom, something putters into his view that looks suspiciously like a worm with a pair of spiky human lungs for wings, and he tries very hard not to sweat. Did a fish like this ever exist...?

"I must be feeling tired," he mutters again, turning away a little too firmly. Besides, he can stare out into the ocean all he wants later. For now, he should explore and see if anyone else is around.
