[ canon update ]
If you'd like to update your character to a different canon point, fill out the form below and comment to this entry. Please note that characters can only be updated to source material that has been out for at least one month. We will try and process canon updates within 48 hours.
ICly, When your character is on a canon update, they completely disappear from the world. It's almost as if they were removed the game, however there's a key difference. Their amulet will remain and be in a translucent state. Characters will be gone from the game from three days to a week. They will reappear wherever their amulet is and can continue their progress from wherever they left off. They will also retain all of their memories.
If you have any questions, contact one of the mods or ask them on the form.

Current Canon Point: The canon point upon application.
Updated Canon Point: The new, desired canon point.
Updated Background: All we need is all the new information, so just a summary of what's happened between the current and updated canon point.
Updated Personality: If anything has changed about the character's personality fill it here. Just like in the original application process, we need as much details a possible, especially if there were any big changes.

Character: Enoch
Current Canon Point: Post-chapter 9
Updated Canon Point: Post-game
Updated Background: Freed from his silver shell, Enoch rushes to Ishtar's aid. He is able to catch glimpses of her fight with the crazed Ezekiel, where she performs remarkably well for someone who lacks the special armor he does, but not well enough to defeat her foe. He finds her most of the way into the next floor, Arakiel's realm (there's yet another Fallen Angel he cannot capture; he finds a shrine dedicated to his memory about halfway through), nearly consumed by vileness accumulated through Ezekiel's attacks and likely her soul's long stay in The Darkness. He reaches out to purify her, but she raises an arm to stop him, telling him to go after Ezekiel before she can recover from her assault. Enoch takes up Ishtar's weapon and goes after her.
Ezekiel is counted a successful capture, and he hurries on to the final floor, home of the leader of the Grigori, Semyaza. Azazel stands in his way, and Enoch defeats him - both the Watcher himself and his monstrous Nether form. But Azazel tries to transform yet again, with the ominous warning they are "more than mere Fallen Angels". But Belial is apparently fed up with the Watchers' weakness, two of them having fallen to Enoch in short succession, and he unleashes a secret weapon, one he's been nurturing for ten years...
A monstrous creature erupts from beneath the ground like it was water, just like Armaros is able to do. It crushes Azazel in its monstrous jaws and gives a distorted cry, one that the Archangels recognize as the arena goes watery, just like Armaros's battle.
"Is that...Armaros?"
Dark Armaros - steeped in vileness and all that comes with it for ten years straight, his thoughts line the arena, proclaiming love and hate for Enoch at the same time, wanting to be his friend and to tear him apart, wanting to be "returned to nothingness", in unbearable agony.
As Enoch chips away at his Dark armor, the negative thoughts begin to vanish, until all Armaros can offer is pain and love. By the time the covering that hides him at the monster's "heart" is removed, Belial has no more control over Armaros than one disarming attack...and then he doesn't move. He turns to follow Enoch and waits. But he's immune to Enoch's bare hands, and no matter what he does, Enoch cannot finish the battle. His weapon is out of reach, beyond the bounds of the arena defined by Armaros's thoughts.
Enter Ishtar. Barely strong enough to carry herself, she crawls towards Enoch's weapon, taking it up and mustering the strength to stand and throw it to him. He catches it and channels Uriel's power through it, calling on the only strength that will harm what is left of the dark power that chains Armaros to his agony: Overboost. He and Uriel finally strike down Dark Armaros, and as he collapses, the mute Grigori, Enoch's friend, clearly mouths a single phrase.
Enoch, thank you.
Armaros is gone (or so Enoch and the Archangels believe; he's only sealed, in truth), but he has no time to mourn: Ishtar is collapsing, too, finally succumbing to the vileness coating her body. Enoch hurries to her side and gathers her in his arms, giving her hand a comforting squeeze and then lifting it to purify her. Unlike Armaros, her vileness was only on the surface of her body; there was no combat needed to purge it.
Gabriel tells him he cannot mourn Armaros now, no matter how difficult the loss, but Enoch, lifting the cleansed Ishtar off the floor, only wears an expression of jaded calm. Armaros's suffering is over, and he will not lose Ishtar too. There's only one battle left: Semyaza himself.
As he and Ishtar approach the device said to contain him as life support, however, it opens to reveal...nothing. It's empty. Their dumbstruck confusion is broken by Lucifel cutting in on his phone, telling God Semyaza must have been dead all along. He tells Enoch he "still has work to do" when he hangs up, referring to shutting down the Tower, and teleports away with Ishtar, presumably for Enoch to meet later.
Updated Personality: Not much has changed from his application. Enoch is smitten with Ishtar after her show of strength, loyalty, and bravery, and is going to settle down with her on Earth for a peaceful 60 years he doesn't get yet, and the pressure of both the mission and Armaros's torture (which he only knew about through Empatheias) are off. He's immensely relieved, and while his issues are by nature of the time period going untreated, he may be more likely to put in effort to live a domestic life.
Updated Abilities:
Weapon: Gale
All abilities are the same except he now has a weapon. For his purposes I have chosen the Gale. This halo-like weapon hovers over the circular plate on the back of his armor (or over where it would be if it has broken away), six sharp spearhead-like projectiles hovering to either side of him - surrounding him when active and resting at his feet (resembling a pair of floating wings at his heels) when idle. He can fire these projectiles in a multitude of ways by commanding them with his hands or, for more powerful maneuvers, his entire body. They return to his side after completing their flight path. The Gale is a utilitarian weapon, neither highly offensive or defensive, but affording him the safety of attacking at range. He isn't particularly good at focusing his aim, however - he may find his projectiles split between multiple targets in his field of vision instead of all focused on one.
Weapon Ability: Gale Tackle
The Gale isn't just for battle. Enoch is able to use the weapon's energy to charge forward, surrounded by sharp...well, gales of wind and energy. This is minorly damaging to any enemy caught in it, but its true purpose is maneuverability. It's by far the fastest means of travel he has outside of motor vehicles, and it always carries him straight forward - even if he's in mid-air. (Think Skyrim's Whirlwind Sprint shout if that's more familiar.)
Other: This is going to coincide with a hiatus for at most a month.
