Yeah, everyone suddenly decided they wanted to write a healer :P

Not gonna lie, the fourth application that I wrote up and eventually discarded in favor of the other three was a blood-loving otter Healer named Doc, because that's how creative I am sometimes.
She walks in beauty, like the night
of cloudless climes and starry skies;
And all that's best of dark and bright
meet in her aspect and her eyes...

Totally still working on the RV5 epilogue, I swear...

I was...actually thinking of making a chatty and slightly scattered brained monitor lizard for the healer role. But...there is no need to now XD

Firstly, how in the blue blazes are there TWO Cieras? Not a common name or spelling at all. If they both get in, someone's going to have to change their name (or mayhap someone should have checked the list before submitting theirs ;)). That's going to be too confusing.

Secondly...

Grabber? I hardly know 'er!

That could ALSO, however, be deliciously comedic. xD They could just each have to be called something else whenever they're being mentioned outside of dialogue to avoid the audience themselves becoming confused along with the other characters.

Also, don't apologize. I laughed.

I would imagine that, despite opening up the ranks to non-hare species, Atlas would probably not allow vermin on his ship (He seems just a wee bit biased)!

Would reptiles and amphibians really be considered "vermin", though, seeing as Croikle the frog, Luggi the Sand Lizard, and Rockbottom the tortoise all proved to be pretty friendly and on good terms with the goodbeasts of the Series? That and I kinda see all vermin as being of the mammal variety... Reptiles and Amphibians are pretty much wildcards, much like birds.

I see - well perhaps I never read the books that describe those characters, as I do not remember them (I just remember the nutty tribal lizards). Admittedly, I did not read the entire series. Perhaps I should update the Guide regarding this.

I tried googling the name. Apparently two of our authors are big fans of Oldsmobile. Or speedboats. I'm guessing the latter since "Ancora" is apparently Latin for "Anchor". If that character isn't a navigator consumed by an insatiable need to improve their boat's top speed, I shall revolt.

Still, lot of potential for Shakespearean "Comedy of Errors"-esque antics there. In retrospect if I had thought of it I would go back and name my characters the same thing as other characters just for that reason alone.

Reminds me of a movie about a drill Sargent who had two George Washingtons in his platoon.  He always referred to them as either fat Washington or skinny Washington.  Expect something similar if both get in.
In life, the only thing that ever adds up is a column of numbers.

Alright. The list has been updated for the final time. So, if you sent in an application and your character's name is NOT on that list, please get in touch with me as soon as possible. For now, speculate, make predictions, and have fun :)

So now we have two characters with the name Ciera and two with the name Thaddeus, both unusual names... How weird is that?

Applications are still closed, but due to some slight issues there's one new name I'm adding to the list despite being past the deadline.
