PERSONNEL ADVISORY // WORD LIMITS

The word limits on this application are maximums, not targets.

Applicants are not required to reach the maximum word count, and the Orvellian government does not expect every answer to be long. A concise answer that gives a clear understanding of you or your character is entirely acceptable.

Limits exist to prevent responses from becoming excessively long and to keep applications manageable for applicants and reviewing staff alike.

No advantage is awarded for using the full allowance. Write as much as is needed to answer each question properly, and stop once everything necessary has been said.

Tell us about your previous experience with roleplay. Tell us what roleplay you've participated in, how long you've been doing it, and what kinds of characters or stories you've been involved in. What do you want to experience in VITAL? Tell us what kinds of stories, relationships or moments you hope to be part of, and what you would like to contribute to them.

FINAL TOPICS //

Your character has been travelling with a small group for several days. One member of the group has secretly stolen food from the others and hidden it for themselves. Nobody else has noticed. Your character discovers what happened. What do they do? We want to see your character's morals and how they handle conflict. Explain their reasoning as well as their actions. Your character is walking through a settlement when they are stopped by two armed strangers. They claim that your character has entered an area they control and demand to know where they are going. Neither has attacked you, but both are clearly prepared to do so. What does your character do? Show how your character behaves under pressure. Think about their tone, their body language and what they are willing to risk. Your character discovers an abandoned building containing a substantial amount of food and useful supplies. There is enough to significantly improve their own situation, but they also find evidence that another group has been using the building as a supply store and may return soon. What does your character do? We are looking at how your character weighs their own needs against everyone else's, and how they justify it. Your character is travelling with limited food when they encounter a parent and young child who have gone several days without a proper meal. The character has enough food to share, but doing so will make their own journey more difficult. What do they do? Show how your character treats others when it costs them something. Explain what drives the choice. Your character is part of a group whose leader orders everyone to leave an injured member behind because continuing to help them would put the entire group at risk. Your character believes the injured person can still be saved. What do they do? We want to see how your character handles authority and loyalty when they disagree with it. Your character is travelling down a forested road when they encounter a heavily loaded cart being pulled by a tired horse. The driver appears exhausted and poorly armed, but something about their behaviour makes your character uneasy. They ask for directions and offer payment in exchange for help. What does your character do? Show us how your character reads people and decides who to trust. Their reasoning matters just as much as the outcome. Your character is sitting alone beside a small campfire late at night. The rest of their group is asleep and there is nothing immediately demanding their attention. For the first time in several days, they have a moment completely to themselves. What does your character do with it? A quieter question. Show us who your character is when nothing is demanding anything of them. Your character is travelling alone when they discover an injured stranger lying beside the road. The stranger is conscious but badly wounded and claims that they were attacked by raiders. Their belongings are scattered around them, and you notice a bloodied weapon lying several metres away. Your character has no way of knowing whether the stranger is telling the truth. What do they do? There is no way to know the truth, so we want to see how your character deals with doubt and risk. Your character learns that a close family member has committed a serious crime. The authorities are searching for them, and your character knows where they are hiding. What does your character do? We want to see where your character's loyalties sit and what it costs them to act on them. Your character has been praying or hoping for something important for weeks, but the situation continues to get worse. Someone they trust tells them that their faith is pointless and that nobody is listening. How does your character respond? Show what your character believes and how they cope when those beliefs are challenged. Your character is travelling with a group when they hear fighting nearby. One member of the group has become separated from everyone else. The others want to go back for them, but there is a serious possibility that the attackers are still nearby. What does your character do? We want to see how your character balances their own safety against the people they care about. Your character has an entire day with no responsibilities, obligations or immediate danger. They have access to everything they normally carry and are free to spend the day however they wish. How do they spend it? Another quiet question. Show us what your character values and enjoys when they are free to choose.
