Applications
Discedo will be closing soon, and we are no longer accepting applications.
Applications are processed every Saturday. To make sure your application is processed please submit it by 11:59 PM Saturday at the latest. Please check the Taken Characters list and the Reserves page before applying.Currently we accept any canon as long as there is an English translation (fan translations qualify) OCs are not currently accepted Real life figures must be from a scripted canon, not real life (ex. you may not app Thomas Jefferson straight from history, but you may app him from the musical 1776) We accept both Hetalia and Nyotalia characters. The requirement for each is that they have an official design by Himaruya and either one line in a strip or at least two sentences of notes from Himaruya. In Hetalia and Nyotalia apps we're looking for at least one paragraph of the personality section (four sentences) dedicated to canon traits as seen through strips, audio dramas, anime episodes and notes from Himaruya. For characters with sparse information you may extrapolate details from their official design or the situations they're found in in canon. For vocaloids we require at least two major songs to be linked and discussed in the personality section (ex. discussing what side of Luka Megurine's personality Just Be Friends shows). Currently we only accept official vocaloids. We also accept PV vocaloids such as the Of Evil series, but this is a case by case basis, if you're not certain please don't be afraid to ask for clarification on the Suggestion Box page

Personality: At the beginning of the games, Namine is unsure of herself and largely void of her own personality. With a lack of memories to draw on, she doesn’t understand how to display emotions the way a Nobody normally would, through the memories of the person they’re born from. Namine, however, being a special Nobody from Kairi, actually has her own emotions, which made it easier for her to originally be manipulated. Through Chain of Memories, Namine is shown being primarily bullied and manipulated into hurting people. Initially Namine believed this would help her gain friends and understand herself, but it only lead to her feeling guilty and used. She began to try to stand up for herself, even putting herself in the middle of a fight to protect Sora.
Due to this, she tends to take a lot of responsibility on to herself to offset the guilt she feels about being a burden. Because Namine isn’t physically strong or agile, she often considers herself useless and does everything in her power to make up for it. She is always willing to help and often shows a lot of self-sacrifice. Even after her exploits in Kingdom Hearts II and her determination to help, she thinks rather lowly of herself and can be unsure of her actions. While she can second-guess herself, when she gets an idea in her mind she’ll go through with it. Overall she is a very loving character, and takes her friendships very seriously.
Even through her upbringing was different, Namine is very much a normal teenage girl. While she can be shy, she does her best to help everyone she can and exudes happiness to everyone she meets. She refuses to let fear stop her from helping make someone’s day better, and does her best to improve the lives of the people she holds dear.
Powers & Abilities: They’re touched on here, but I’ll chat on them a bit:
- Memory Manipulation: Namine has the ability to destroy, create, reform or change the links of memory centered around Sora and those with memories of him. In basic, she can change not only the links in Sora’s mind, but the memories of him in others’ heads. In canon, she changed the memories of the Riku Replica to reflect Sora’s, and also created an object based on these fake memories (his special keychain looking exactly like Sora’s). It’s also been shown she has certain dominion over Roxas’ memories due to his connection to Sora. It’s been assumed she does all of her manipulations through her sketchbook and art.
- Darkness: Namine has the ability to use the portals of darkness to get around, as Organization XIII does, though she doesn’t use it much.
It’s also been shown she knows how to sew (via the manga), though she isn’t that good at it.
What items will they be bringing with them to Discedo? Her sketchbook and some pencils.

Third-Person Sample:
Gently laying her hand on Sora’s pod, Namine wondered what he was dreaming about.
She had put him into stasis a few weeks ago- still stuck at Castle Oblivion, she made sure to check up on him and his companions daily. It had been hard going so far putting his memories back together; the floor around the area was littered with drawings, most incomplete, her sketchpad and pencils left back on the chair behind her. With the lack of breakthroughs, she’d left her work to wait, examining his face while he slept.
“Are you happy?” She whispered, bringing herself in close to the glassy surface. Every feature on his face was calm and pristine, as untouched as the white walls that surrounded his pod and the lace on her dress brushing against her legs. “I hope you are. I’m sorry I can’t make it go faster. I promise, you won’t be stuck in there long.”
Taking a step back, the papers around her feet shuffled and crumpled under her sandals. Countless brown spikes and red outfits poked through the collaboration of art, intermixed with Riku’s silver and Kairi’s red. Many were only half drawn, discarded ideas or attempts laid to rest. Face falling slightly, she reached down, picking up one half-finished drawing. Sora stood in the middle, hands caught with a girl. She could see where the girl’s blonde hair had been colored over red, and her white dress made pink. This was the girl he was supposed to remember. Even if their faces weren’t looking her way, she had tried to imagine them smiling. That’s how it was supposed to be. Just not with her.
Dropping the drawing back into place, she walked quickly over to her sketchbook, pulling it close and tucking a pencil behind one ear. Heading for the door, Namine stopped just before she left, looking back towards the boy kept frozen in time.
“It’ll be good for you… not to remember me. Maybe we’ll meet again. I’ll… I’ll make sure of it.”
First-Person Sample: [Voice]
Nngh… Hello? Why am I in the street? And why does my head hurt?
America, if this is some kind of joke, it’s not funny! I was only trying to take a nap. This is a pretty elaborate prank, even for you!
… Why is there no one else here? Where is everyone? Did... did something happen? This doesn’t seem good at all.
… Hello? Anyone?
Links: I played her previously at Discedo and as it seems there haven’t been any other Namine’s in the meantime, I’d love it if she could retain her memories! Her old account (when she was in Discedo previously) with all her previous IC interactions is over here: Livejournal account!
