app them now, srsly.
Hello everyone!
As you may know, applications open once again on June 1st. That's in...precisely two weeks! New crew members abound! They don't actually get to play until July, but it's never too early to start thinking about characters you may want to apply for. If you already have your idea, great!
If not, well, sit back and allow us to provide some suggestions.
For this...is...ENABLING NIGHT! ((Offer does not expire at midnight. Enable as long as necessary.))
Use this post to tell us why the canon you love and character you want are so spectacularly fantastic that they deserve another chance. That this ship will wither and die without their vital, life-giving presence. That they are worthy of being picked up and applied for.
How can you accomplish this? However you like! Essays extolling their virtues, your very best pictures of them, your favorite music videos, EXTREME ADVERTISING, and whatever else you have are all welcomed here! Let's make this ~fun~.
Good luck and happy apping! I'll have example comments up very shortly.

Re: GARGOYLES - YET MORE CHARACTERS
DEMONA.
AKA WORST. EX-MATE. EVER.
So yeah this is Demona. She is Goliath's ex. They kind of broke up when she wanted him to help her destroy all humans, and he decided genocide really wasn't his bag, so she shot him. A couple times. And tricked Brooklyn into putting him under a mind-control spell. And tried to kill Hudson. And tried to kill Elisa. And tried to commit genocide of the human race. A COUPLE OF TIMES.
She's crazy, immortal, driven by vengeance and hatred, has a complicated past, and is generally really good at making Goliath's life complicated. Mostly involving shooting.
She is a pretty awesome villain, and man, if you could play her on a ship CONSTANTLY SURROUNDED by humans, all of whom she hates with a passion, hey, that could be pretty awesome.
DAVID XANATOS.
App him for the beard.
App him for the motherfucking beard.
But seriously, Xanatos is a schemer, to the core. Everything is part of his plan. You reading this post is part of his plan. You being in your seat at the time you are now in your seat to read this post is part of his plan. YEAH. IT'S LIKE THAT.
I mean, look at the trope named after him.
He's also a self-made millionaire thanks to a time loop. Because that is how Xanatos rolls.
Back to some non-villains with ANGELA.
Angela is Goliath and Demona's biological daughter. She was raised by humans on the island of Avalon, on which time moves much more slowly than in the real world, meaning she reached adulthood by the time the clan woke up in Manhattan, as opposed to being long dead. She and Goliath have an interesting relationship, mostly involving her wanting him to acknowledge her as his daughter, and him being more comfortable with the gargoyle method of parenting, in which all adult gargoyles raise all gargoyle children communally. She's clever and sweet, on the inexperienced side due to being raised in fairyland (you heard me), and can still crumple a car like a beercan.
There are more characters - like Matt Bluestone, Elisa's partner, and Owen, Xanatos' Assistant-with-a-Secret, and Thailog, Goliath's evil clone, but you should probably watch the show to get a handle on these awesome dudes.
