- There are no reserves — first come, first served.
- In the event of two claims for the same character, preference will always be given to the version played in Balance RP.
- Players have 72 hours to submit revisions. If they fail to do so within that time period, their claim will be rejected and they will have to wait 1 week to resubmit their claim.
- Each player can have a maximum of two characters. However, if you would like to claim a second character, please check with us here first!
- Claims will remain open until the conclusion of the first arc of Imaginary Island, after which time they will close for plot reasons. More concrete dates will be made available as the first arc progresses, but this time frame is anticipated to be about 1.5-2 months (meaning claims will close around the end of August or beginning of September 2020).

Character Information
Name:
Canon:
Canon Point:
Age: Real/apparent.
Balance Import? Yes/no.
History: For original characters that did not participate in Balance RP. All other claims do not need to fill this section out. Please give us an idea of the original world your character is coming from and the events that have led up to this point in their life. Keep this brief; we'd like an absolute maximum of 700 words.
Personality: For original characters that did not participate in Balance RP. All other claims do not need to fill this section out. Please give us a brief idea of what your character is like! No more than a couple of paragraphs are necessary. Feel free to format as bullet points or more formally — it's your choice.
Character ability: If your character has a canon ability that you would like to adapt into the setting, describe it here. You may pick only one canon ability. Gauge whether it is overpowered for the setting and, if so, please describe how you plan to nerf it for the purposes of Island. We may ask for further tweaks if we have concerns about its functionality in-game.
Inventory: List everything your character has on them at arrival on Island. If your character is a Balance import, they can bring everything they had on the Moon Base as long as you list it here. If your character is coming in fresh, they can have one non-magical weapon on hand.
Sample: We'd like to see a sample of any length, as long as you feel it's representative of your character's voice and personality. For Balance Transfers, this is where you can put the link to your old app or a thread from Balance.
Paths
Primary Path: Please list your character's first chosen path.
Secondary Path: Please list your character's second chosen path. If you haven't decided on one yet, write "undecided."
Advanced Path: Please list your character's advanced path, if applicable. If you haven't decided on one yet, write "undecided". If you are opting to max a secondary path instead of taking an advanced path, write "none" or "N/A".
Why these paths?: Let us know in a few sentences why you've chosen the paths you did for your character! How do they fit with the character's personality, or in what interesting ways do they contrast? If you are grandfathering in paths that your character previously had in Balance, you do not need to provide an explanation, but for any new paths we'd like to know your reasoning.
Path Actions: Provide a list of path actions your character will have access to on Island. As a reminder, Balance imports have the opportunity to arrive on Island with all path actions maxed out; if you'd like to take that option, please list all path actions here. New characters will have all primary path actions when they arrive on Island.

Character Information
Name: Ogata Hyakunosuke
Canon: Golden Kamuy
Canon Point: Chapter 170, after arriving at Akou.
Age: 27
Balance Import? you know it
Character ability: Ogata has no magic or supernatural ability from back home, however he is absurdly good at shooting guns. He professes he can land a headshot "without fail" from 300 meters/980 feet away, and can probably reliably land shots on larger targets from even further away. When Ogata shoots Sugimoto, he is too far away for Sugimoto to have seen him, however Sugimoto is still certain Ogata was the one who did it because "no one else could have made that shot." Even people who hate Ogata acknowledge he's an incredible shot.
This will probably never come up, but he's also some sort of gun encyclopedia, Ogata has on one occasion picked up a spent bullet casing and immediately known what two models of gun could have fired it, and another time he hears a gun being fired from a ways away but knows what model it is by the quality and length of the sound. He's very familiar with the function and maintenance of guns. Probably he couldn't fix a broken gun, necessarily, but he could tell what was wrong with it.
Inventory:
Arisaka Type 38 Rifle
10 rounds of ammunition
A bow and a quiver of six arrows
A bow maintenance kit and a fletcher's manual
A copy of notes on the construction and repair of a Winchester Rifle
A journal and a novelty pen shaped like a rifle
A set of crossbow bolts and a dress shirt with a rude friend in the pocket
A book about the insects of Faerun and also this book
A stress ball
Several candlenights cards
GOD he had some sort of special arrow that could either??? Poison something or summon a skeleton??? Depending on if he shot it at a person or the ground. It was single use. I can't bring up the exact details since it was a gacha thing so it was on the balancemods journal, so I guess let me know if I can't have my terrible doom arrow due to me not having the exact details.
Sample: here's his Balance app and a Balance sample for good measure
Paths
Primary Path: Ranger
Secondary Path: Warlock
Advanced Path: Dark Knight
Why this path?: His primary and secondary are from Balance! For advanced, Ogata has a weird relationship with the dead. His dead relatives in particular. So let's go with the spooky ghoul class. This cannot backfire.
Path Actions:
Ranger- all. Favored Enemy is Humans
Warlock- Otherworldly Patron (Great Old One), Pact of the Blade- with his rifle, Eldritch Blast, Necromantic Touch, Pact of the Tome- Misty Step from Sorcerer
Dark Knight- all
