One day you go to collect your mail, just like every other day. Through the numerous letters you recieve, there is one you don't recognise. The handwritten address isn't from a friend, boss, family member, or anyone you seem to know. It isn't a bill either. You decide to open it and read, to find out what it is and who it's from. Inside you find a piece of paper reading:

Dear Reader,

You have been selected by us in regards to an ongoing survey that only a few lucky members of the public have been chosen to participate in. By choosing to fill and return this survey, you will be getting rewarded. If this has gained your interest, then please continue to the following pages and proceed to complete them.

This survey will be kept personal and confidential, with no details given out to other parties at any time. Thank you for your time and effort in filling out our survey. Once finished please send back in the addressed and stamped envelope provided. Once we have recieved your survey, processed it and others, we will get back to you with further information of your reward and other details.

Instructions

To enter the roleplay, it is the survey above which will be completed and sent to me via PM. There I will read through and chose whether to accept you, or not. Below I have a coded copy of the survey with some additional bits in regarding what I want in terms of the biography. Remember PM me the survey, don't post here and also read the rules first! Remember as well, that this is the character application so have fun creating the character.

Rules

• Read these rules!
• PM me the profiles. Once I have PM'd back saying accepted, you can then post them here.
• Let me know here that you're interested and working on your character. Just so I know people are interested!
• Romance and violence must be kept to PG-13.
• No Cyber.
• Literate posts. This means correct spelling, punctuation and grammar.
• No one liners. Post at least 2-3 paragraphs please. It gives other players something to work with then, if they are interacting with your character.
• I am the GM, so what I say goes. I am welcome to suggestions to plot and storylines though, so feel free to post ideas and feedback here ^_^.
• No GodModding. Control only your character or any NPC's you create. Have an idea for you and another player. PM them or talk about it here.
• No OOC in the IC thread. I hate this. All OOC must be kept to this thread. Questions? Ask here or PM me.
• Dropping out/Going away? Post here to let us know so we can plan what to do so the thread doesn't stop while waiting for your character.
• When sending your surveys, title the PM 'Writer's Paradise'.
• And lastly, have fun.

Join then. ^_^ The survey is just the beginning! I'll post more details in this thread about the roleplay and how it starts once we have a decent number of players. You'll get to find out what this prize is for filling out the survey.

All is not what it seems though. The innocent is not so innocent.

Accepted players

So, have fun applying, and remember, just state you're interested here and working on the survey, just so I know that I do have interest as well as whether you are going to be male or female as I am only opening up five female spots and five male spots. Have fun. ^_^
