REVISIONS.

On the whole, this is an excellent app, but before we can accept it, we'd like to ask for a few small changes.

1) If it's not objectionable to you, can we ask that the canon point be moved to before the Doctor became 4.5 billion years old? Really we'd rather ask Steven Moffat to change this, but you're here and he is not. If it's very important to you to play after this canon point this revision (unlike the others) is open to discussion and negotiation.

2) While we don't dispute the accuracy of your suggested powercap list, the largest number of Liminal & Psychic skills we recall ever granted to an incoming character is 8. If you'd prefer, we can trim down this list ourselves (we were thinking 6 psychic and 2 liminal skills, or maybe 5 & 3), but if there are specific powers you really want to maintain, we thought we'd give you a chance to pick them out. Often powerful telepaths entering the game find themselves very restricted by their new capabilities (the aforementioned 8-skill powercap was Charles Xavier), and learning how to cope with the restrictions is, we hope, part of the fun!

3) Finally, we'd like to request a new prose sample, reacting to a more dynamic situation so that we get a better sense for the Doctor's reactions and emotions when interacting with others, rather than pure introspection.

These revisions may be submitted to us any time between now and 11:15 AM CST, April 3rd. Thank you for applying to Synodiporia, and we hope you'll be joining us soon!
