Tier 1 - Enlisted Marines, Grunts: Just a short RP sample will do - 3 paragraphs. As long as it's readable and isn't laden with godmodding or similar stupidity, it'll probably pass.
Tier 2 - Marine NCOs, enlisted regular ODSTs, Grunt Ultras, Jackals/Skirmishers, standard Minor/Major Domo Elites (including fighter and dropship pilots*), UNSC Dropship/Fighter Pilots*: A little longer of an RP sample is required (around 350 words), and we will hold it to a slightly higher standard. In addition, ODSTs must have a player that commands a warship accept them onto their ship.
Tier 3 - Junior Marine/regular ODST Officers, Ultra Elites, Brutes of Captain rank, Jackal/Skirmisher Ultras, Spec Ops Grunts, Drone Swarms, COs of small UNSC or Jackal/Skirmisher ships such as corvettes: A much longer RP sample of several paragraphs is required, and we will check over this RP sample very carefully. RP sample length should be over 500 words.
Tier 4 - Senior Marine/ODST Officers, Special Operations ODSTs, ONI personnel, Spec Ops Elites, Hunters, Zealot-class Elites of Minor Standing (Field Masters and Ship Masters of Tier 4 and lower ships) COs of a medium-sized warship such as frigates, destroyers: A very long RP sample is required (should be over 800 words). We will check it over very very carefully for any godmodding or spelling errors. The character will need to be very well-written indeed. You will need to have decent understanding of your factions fighting tactics, and approval of one staff member.
Tier 5 - SPARTANs, Zealot-class Elites of greater standing (Ship Masters of T5 Ships), Brute Chieftains, COs of carriers or cruisers: This had better be a very long, very very well written RP sample (should be over 1,300 words). We will scrutinize it heavily, to ensure that it's up to snuff, and no godmoding or spelling/grammar errors will be accepted. You'll need two staff members to sponsor your character concept before you apply. In effect, a character of this level will need to be pretty much perfect. Don't take it personally if even then the character is rejected - characters of this type have such enormous effects on the RP that they must be very tightly controlled. Additionally, we reserve the right to deny these types of characters on the basis that there isn't any 'room' for them at present, to avoid top-heavy overloading of the RP. We only accept three spartans at any time. and only two high ranking elites can be present in the same place. (note that there is no limit to ship masters of ship captains)
