name: Canada [Mathew Williams] gender: male appearance: purple eyes,wavy blonde hair with a curly piece that sticks out in the front, adverage height, glasses, I can't think of anything else. personality: I'm really shy, and no one notices be most of the time, except maybe america. I love maple syrup and will put it on everything. I hate fighting, and i'm really sensitive at times. I don't have a lot of courage, I'll never be as brave as everyone else. I don't like to bother people with my problems, but sometimes it makes me so mad that they don't notice me! Of course I would never confront them about this. relations with other characters: America is my brother, and I would like to believe we have a good relationship. I would like it better if I wasn't always being mistaken for him, but thats not his falt, is it? If only he wouldn't get into so many fights. I spend most of my time with my brother because he is one of the few people that can always see me. I love you bro! One of my best friends is Cuba, even if he constantly mistakes me for america and starts to attack me. I wish he would stop doing that, can't he see that i'm canada? special abilites: I can make myself invisible to the other nations, I wonder if it works on zombies? short range weapon of choice: a knife that I keep hidden around my waist, I try to make it seem that im unarmed because I hate to fight. long range weapon of choice: a small pistol, like I said before, fighting isn't my thing, but I will if I have to. duty position of choice: scout (I think i'm pretty stealthy) bunk of choice: top (I don't want to be in anyone's way) sample RP test: The darkness of the forst surrounded me like a blanket. I felt so alone, so very alone. No one would ever know if I never returned, no one had ever cared. "STOP!" cried a farmiliar voice from behind me, but it was to late. The stool under my feet disappeared and the rope around my neck grew tighter. Precious life slipped away, as did my breathe. code in the rules: [Validated by "... Are you one of my 53 children?"]about yourself: I actually act a lot like canada, I'm fifteen, I love soda I also love making new friends. pairing friendly: everything is cool with me, except FrUk, sorry to any fans out there, but I hate it. it's the only pairing I don't agree with. personal note to anyone awesome enough to read my application: <opps, did I change this title? I like to think that everyone is awesome in there own way, unless they make me mad, then they suck.

Awesome Well, I just got a couple of pointers for you, and then, you're in~ The RP test section is to allow people to get acquainted with your style of writing, so it's gonna have to be a bit bigger than that. If you don't have anything you could use, you could just write one on the spot. Like.... How did Canada learn of the zombie apocalypse? First-hand experience? Did somebody tell him? Or how did he take the news that his entire country was now overrun by zombies, and the small percentage of his people that survived fled to Europe? You have plenty of opportunities for longer posts, so go for it, there is no such thing as making it too long Also, the personality section is too short. You could specify how Canada reacts to certain things, or WHY he reacts that way.... Either way, it's a bit short. If you need inspiration, you're always welcome to check my or someone else's app (: Asides that, you're all good. Just change those two, and I'll accept you ASAP!

okay let's try this again...
personality: I'm really shy and most of the time no one even notices me. Sometimes I feel like they ignore me on purpose. Why would they do such a thing? I have never done anything to hurt them in any way. Some people say that I can be sensitive, and it's true that I take everything personally. I hate to be made fun of, even if they are only joking. I hate fighting and will only fight if it'a absolutely necessary. Of course since we are in the middle of a zombie apocolypse, I guess there is no way of getting out of fighting. I don't understand why America could be so stupid and let his people get infected. Not only has it spread throughout the rest of the North America, but my people have also had to suffer. I know it's not his falt, but I'm the one who should be protecting my people. It feels like I have failed them. That the only thing I could do to save some of them was to ship them off to europe, it breaks my heart. I just wish I was strong enough and brave enough to protect them. I don't understand war, why must we have them? They don't solve any problems, and they only bring blood shed. I've had to help in too many wars if you ask my opinion, and I didn't even get any credit! My people died just like yours, and you say that I was still a colony, or part of America? Not fair in the slightest. I hate to bother people with my problems, what if they reject me? It's mostly because I don't have the courage to walk up to them and start talking. They could hate me for that. What if they were in the middle of a crisis in their country and I was distracting them? I could have just killed a city when I had distracted him. I don't want to be a bother to others. Maybe it's best if I just stay invisible. On another note, I love maple syrup and I put it on/in everthing that I eat, and I mean everything. It just makes everything taste better, it tastes like home. I think I would go mad if we ever ran out of maple syrup. I really hope we don't run out.
sample RP test: It had started out as a normal day. Snowflakes lazily floated to the ground as the wind whistled through the branches of the almost bare trees. It was very close to winter, and it was freezing cold. I woke up to the sound of scratching at my window, and in my fear thought it was a burgler trying to break into my home. I bolted up in bed, while clutching kumajiro (was that his name?) to my trembling chest. His soft white fur relaxed me a bit and I calmed down just enough to look around the room.
My bedroom wasn't very big. My queen sized bed sat in the middle, with the headboard against the far wall. To the left and right of it stood two wooden night stands that each held a white lamp. On the left wall was my collection of hocky team banners and one of the two windows in my room. I loved every hocky team, it was too hard to decide which I liked best. I always cheered for both because I hated to see someone lose, even though someone must always lose. On my right wall was my second window and a desk. I barely used that desk anymore since I already had a study with another desk. Next to the desk was a door to my walk in closet.
After looking around I noticed a branch scraping against my right window. I sighed in relief, loosening my arms around poor kumajiro. I got up from bed and dressed in my normal attire consisting of dark brown pants, a tan fur trimed attic parka, and black boots. I graped my brown gloves, snow googles, and cross strap pistol holders for when I needed to go outside. I headed down stairs to eat breakfast. While the upstairs held my bedroom, study, a bathroom,and a few extra guest rooms, the down stairs held the kitchen, living room, the dining room, and a small library.
I got out everything I needed to make pancakes, which is what I ate every morning. Okay, I've got the eggs, flour, milk, sugar, salt, vegtable oil, and finally baking powder. After I had set everything out, I went to the cabinet that held all my bottles of homemade maple syrup. Just as I was about to take down a bottle, there was a knock at the door. Sigh, if this was another one of America's unexpected visits, I wasn't in the mood. I put on my snow googles, cross strap pistol holders, and gloves just in case it was America and he decided to drag me out of the house again on one of his ridiculous adventures. With kumajiro in hand, I opened the door.
Four men in black burst through the door, grabed my arms and ushered me outside. I knew just who they were, my country's secret service, sworn to protect me for all harm. Startled by their reactions, I studdered "W-Whats g-going on?". Still they rushed me into a large black van. Locking all the doors, they drove off at a very illegal speed I'm sure, since the speed limit was 50 kph.
A rather small member of the team looked at me, I could tell he was scared. His blue eyes were wide, and his brown hair looked as if he hadn't had time to brush it. Since he lived in Canada, I could tell who he was right away. His name was Joesph Smith, 20 years old, Single, he lived in the city of Ottawa in the province of Ontario. That wasn't far from where I lived.
He turned back around so as to not look at my confused face, or maybe it was because this was the first time he had ever met me. Whatever the case was, I had to know the reason he was so scared, I had to protect my people from ever being scared. I leaned forward and tapped his shoulder. He turned around very quickly and replied " Y-Yes sir? is something wrong?" I cut to the chase and said "What happened?" He shook his head no very violently, as if to say no and to erase the memory from his mind " I can't...." He saw my pleading eyes, and sighed "Okay, I'll try."
"Basically, there has been an infection that is quickly spreading across North America and it has finally reached us. Right now, many people in the capitol Ottawa are suffering from it. We have to get you to a safe place." He paused a little and then continued "Some people think it's a zombie apocalypse". A single tear rolled down his face. It didn't take a detective to know that at least one of his loved ones had caught the infection, and had possibly died or was suffering horribly.
"Thank you Joesph, you are very brave." I stated, thinking it would make him feel better and knowing that it was true. He was a very brave man. He stared at me with a puzzed look on his face "I never told you my name...How did you know my name?". He continued to stare at me until recognition showed in his face "Wait, I remember the chief told me about this, you know everyone's name just by looking at them, right?" I nodded my head yes once.
The rest of the ride went very smoothly, and Joesph stayed very quiet, as did kumajiro. Finally we arrived at a large iron gate. Positioned on the inside was two, very big guards, or so I assumed they were guards. " Who goes there?" boomed the voice of the first guard. I was ushered outside of the van as one of my secret service employees holding up an identification card replied "We are the secret service and we were asked to get a mister Mathew Williams for the president sir." The guards looked at each other for a moment and nodded. The one who had talked before said "Alright, you can all come in, but you must leave the car, it could be contaminated with the disease." The guard opened the huge gates just enough to get through. We all squeezed throught the opening without any problems. They quickly shut the gates after we had gone through, locking them several times.
There were groups of people sitting everywhere. They had made several campfires and each group was eating next to them. However, there was a rather large path leading straight to a building up ahead. We were heading in that direction. As we passed several campfires, the people eating stopped what they were doing and looked at us as we passed. We must have looked very strange to them, especially me surrounded by people in black suits.
What had happened to my proud country? Why had this happened to us? I felt so helpless, so weak. My country was falling apart and I couldn't do anything to help. By how weak I felt, I was sure most of my people had been infected already. I wouldn't be surprised if I started to shrink into nothing. My knees buckled from my own weight, and the weight of my dear friend kumajiro. I was lifted up and demanded to keep moving. A more sootheing voice told me that we were almost there, it had to be Joesph.
I remember them taking me into the building and going a few steps before I completely blacked out. The next thing I remember was waking up into an all white room, thinking that it must be the hospital wing. I tried to close my eyes again, to receive more merciful sleep before I had to face the day again.
I was too late, A man dressed all in black had been standing in the corner of the room, probably waiting for me to wake up. He shook me until I opened my eyes again and said "Sorry sir but you must wake up now, the president wants to see you." With the mention of the president I got up quickly, but quickly fell back onto the floor. I still was wearing my clothes, but my glasses were missing. I got up, still hugging kumajiro to my chest where he had ended up while I slept, blushing, I asked the man "Do you know where my glasses are?" He quickly handed me my glasses from a nearby table and dragged me out of the room before I could say a quick "Thank you"
We traveled down the left hall until we came into a big room, where yet another man came along with us before we turned down into a second hallway. I couldn't understand why they were all wearing dark sunglasses, was it so I purposely didn't see their identity? We soon reached the end of the hallway, where a large oak door opened for us. I quickly spotted the president, as he also spotted me.
"Come sit down Mathew, we have much to discuss" The president beconded me to a nearby wooden chair. I sat down and looked up at the president, patiently waiting for him to speak. "As I'm sure you already know, the infection has reached Canada, the capitol is in ruins, and the only survivers that we know of are inside this protected facility. What you don't know is that we have decided, along with several other countries to bring all of the survivors to europe. You along with many other nations will try to destroy all the victims with the disease here. When you have completed that task, we will rebuild the land and bring our people home. You shall go to an abandoned warehouse near Ottawa to meet the other nations. this warehouse will be your base, good luck."
So many thoughts were zooming through my head, but the most prominent word was why? Why had this happened? Why didn't I get a say in what was best for my people? I could tell this plan was hastily put together, would it even work? While I asked myself these questions and many more, I was taken back outside of the building. They put me inside a greenish, brownish truck. You could tell that they had tried to camouflage it. Soon I would have to fight my own people, for the sake of my country. I wondered what future fate had in store for me, would it ever be the same again? Or would we be stuck in a continuos battle for survival? There was only one way to find out...

Okay, so I really REALLY like the new RP test <3 Especially the last part.
( THE PROUD CANADIAN INSIDE OF ME INSISTS THAT WE HAVE A PRIME MINISTER, AND NOT A PRESIDENT, THOUGH ;A; )
And the personality section is well-developed, thank you. I like how you've done it in 1st person.
Great, you're done. You can now change your avatar, penname, signature, and duty position below your avatar..... Well, that's that. I guess there's nothing left to say! You're in! Welcome to Terra Sigma!
