Dark King Auditions

[SeaLight]

We will be holding auditions for Dark King. The form of judging will not be provided, as we all want you not to write your post off of a judging way, but off of your own style. To audition, reply to this post with your audition post, as well as some OOC about how you think you could provide to the site.

We'll give you this much, we will judge you on the quality of your post. Not necessarily quantity, but a short paragraph or two won't get you anywhere. We will also be looking for spelling and grammar.

Your audition should be a roleplay of the character you're auditioning, not some other character.

The character must be a dark stallion, and must've been accepted.

You may not edit your post after posting, so make sure that your post is exactly what you want it to be before you click 'Post Message'.

If you're auditioning for Dark King, you are not permitted to audition for any other Royal roles.

The Dark King and Papillon will rule alongside each other, but not necessarily as mates.

Royals receive the following privileges:
- They become staff members
- They are allowed to accept/reject character applications
- They are allowed to be one of the two judges of a battle (involving horses of their alliance only)
- They are allowed to accept/reject claims (of their alliance only)

Royals are also expected to be fairly active around the site, helpful, and respectful of fellow members.

Death seemed to be all there was to a world like this.

Lives stopped, endless promises unkept and lies unexplained.

For wasnt that all there was to life?

For the stallion who stood atop a crumbling cliffedge now, that was all he had ever known. There were lies, there were unkept promises, there was pain, and then you died. So, with all this rejection, grieving and pain, wasnt it better to bottle up any emotion, to just delete it from your system? That was all Insania, as was the stag's name, knew how to do.

He knew how to lie and pretend, and he knew how to nod along, saying nothing was wrong. And Insania knew another thing. He knew that if you told yourself there was nothing wrong, and told others there was nothing wrong, then you could get by another day.

No villain in this world is two dimensional. No murderer, no rapist, no warlord is indefeatable. And no coldhearted dark Lord has never cried.

For when tears roll down your cheeks, it is seen by many darks as a showing of weakness. But sometimes, when you bottle emotion up for so long, crying is the only way to let it out. But what when you do, as a murderer or rapist, or warlord, cry? What if he hates himself afterwards?

It was obvious, from the bloodshot orbs of this stallion, what had happened whilst he had stood alone in the forest moments before. And, as he stood on this clifftop, looking down, it was obvious what was running through his mind.

For Insania had loved, and he had been hurt. He had lost everyone and everything, after gaining so much. But when so much grief and pain strikes one person, one horse, and they choose not to show it, it can become too much.

The Darkness that hung around this stallion was immense, that was sure. But any dark who protests to having never cried, is weaker than any before or after him, and Insania knew that. But that didnt make the result of his loss any easier.

In his mind, he was weak, frail and unwanted as a dead man. So why should he continue living? He knew he had owned vast kingdoms, he had made his mark on this world, and he had felt pride, warmth and even joy at times. So maybe there was something left to live for.

But Insania debated with his life regually, it gave him the strength to go on another day. So, walking back a few paces and tossing back his angular dial, he snorted softly.

If he never entered another place, another herd, how would he know what could have been?

How would he know if he was always meant to go on?

I think Insania would be a good king as he is calm in all situations, except when he is alone, as you can see.

But as a Leader, Insania is strong, brave, and lethal. He shows no mercy, and he never backs down.

I myslef would be a good admin, as I am experianced in running sites, being a skin maker, and helping admins to improve on sites. I am always as active as possible, and will be on every day if I can, Every three days at the very least.

I will work hard to advertise this site, along with the neopets guild, as I already have done in the latter case. I am literate and fair, and will make as good an admin as Insania will a royal. [/i]

I know my point of view isn't important, and is probably rather annoying, but that was amazing! I mean, wonderful roleplay! I really dislike characters that have absolutely no emotion, even if they're the darkest of dark. Well done!

Thank you so much

I always value crit and comments on my roleplay.

Yeah, I agree, I try and make all my charries three-dimensional.

Please make his audition in a separate post though. If you editted your current post, then you'd be automatically disqualified.
