AN: Hello all! I'm clairvoyage, and this is my first Fairy Tail fic! I've been a reader on this site for a long time, and I've been rewatching Fairy Tail and the urge to create a fic has been nagging me for the last few months, so I decided to finally create my own SYOC story, thanks to the encouragement of the lovely ZodiacStarlight. She's been such a huge inspiration to me, and I'm excited to produce this story in light of that. There are a lot of Kingdoms in Earthland that Fairy Tail didn't really go into in detail, so I decided to run with the idea of using what little information they provided us on Fiore's neighboring Kingdom of Seven and make it my own.
I have so much planned for this, so get ready for a pretty detailed fic! This is more of an introduction page, and I'll have a prologue posted soon that will give more info and a feel for the story itself. I hope you all will consider submitting an OC and taking part in this exciting journey with me! There is so much of the world of Fairy Tail that I'm interested in exploring, so this is the result. And a quick note, this will NOT BE LIKE EDOLAS. I will have a very different plot than the world of Edolas, so please don't worry. Magic guilds will still be a thing in the Kingdom of Seven, just very limited in what they can do because of the new laws in the land, and without the Magic Council to regulate, the leader of Seven is taking advantage of this.
Please check out my profile for the rules and character sheet if you're interested in submitting. Everyone is welcome. I'm looking for a wide variety of OCs, so anything goes, within reason. And don't be afraid to ask questions, I would love to help! Also, I should have a prologue posted very soon! Thank you! :)

Full Summary: In X884, the Kingdom of Seven declared war against the Magic Council and denounced their authority. Things took a turn for the worst when the royal family of Seven was slain and overthrown, replaced by their current leader and dictator who continues to rule in present-day X923. Due to the denouncing of the Magic Council, Seven has put strict law on the use of magic, leading to the slow decline of magical guilds, leaving innocent civilians to fall under cruel rule as war wages on. With the new leader of Seven who rules with an iron fist, the Kingdom is all but left to suffer under the hands of his followers, a reign of terror and pain flooding the land. In the hopes to be a ray of light to those in need, Nova Inn was formed as a shelter for those suffering from the war. But slowly over time, the guild Nova Bloom was born and shaped from the inn, with the hope to see the members bloom and flourish under the light, blossoming into amazing and talented mages that can save citizens from the pits of darkness. With the new limiting magic laws in place and a war with not only the Magic Council but neighboring Kingdoms, will struggling mages be able to find a place of shelter in the land of Seven and be able to put a stop to this madness to save the Kingdom?
Important information and timeline: This SYOC story takes place in the Kingdom of Seven, located on a peninsula northeast of Fiore in the year X923 and will be a mix of canon and fiction of my own creation, 120 years after the defeat of Zeref. In X884, the Kingdom of Seven declared war against the Magic Council and denounced their authority. Things had taken such a turn for the worst, especially when the royal family of Seven was slain and overthrown, replaced by their current leader and dictator who continues to rule over Seven in present-day X923. Due to the denouncing of the Magic Council, the Kingdom of Seven has put strict law on the use of magic, leading to a decline of magical guilds in not just the lands of Seven, but slowly decreasing in all of Earth-land and war is waging on with Seven, the Magic Council, and surrounding countries. There are still a small number of guilds in Seven, though most have been taken down by the King. In the neighboring Kingdoms of Fiore, Bosco and Iceberg, things aren't quite as terrible, though the other nations are taking a direct hit on Seven because of their attempts to invade and take over neighboring Kingdoms.
Nova Bloom Guild information: Noelle Aguellon, a 59-year-old mage, is the founder and master of the Nova Bloom Guild, which is located in the city of Twilight Grove in the Kingdom of Seven, under the guise of Nova Inn. She and her husband have been running Nova Inn as a bed and breakfast for years, though this is also a front to her guild hall where she takes in and shelters mages. It didn't start out that way, more as a place that Noelle sheltered those in need because of the dark times that the Kingdom fell under from the war, but now it has slowly flourished into a light guild. The inn is always under speculation by the local authorities, although Noelle poses the guild members as inn workers to keep them under the radar. Nova Bloom is more of a shelter at the moment, with a very sparse number of members, but they're slowly increasing their numbers. (TBA)
Disclaimer: I do not own Fairy Tail or the Kingdom of Seven, but I do own the Nova Bloom Guild, Noelle Aguellon, and a few other minor OCs.

Rules & Guide for Submitting (Please follow these):
- You can submit to any guild, or even create your own guild if you'd like. I'll be adding guilds to the story as we go, so we might end up having even more guilds and characters involved. Right now the guilds are Nova Bloom, Phoenix Spirit, Pixie Heart, and the dark guilds, Dryad Skull, and Triton Tower Federation.
- OCs are to be submitted through PM only, reviews will be overlooked. Title the subject as [OCs name, Magic Type, and Association/Guild]. You also MUST use MY OC FORM for submitting a character. Not all forms are the same for every story and mine is specific to my fic, so I'd appreciate it if you used my form to submit your character because it has all of the info I need. You can change up the order of information, but you must use only my form for this.
- You can submit more than one OC, but I'd prefer if you would ask first. This isn't a first come, first serve story, so I will not have spot reservations, that way It's fair to everyone.
- Please try to review every few chapters at least, just so I know you're still around and involved. Inactive submitters will be replaced. You do not have to follow or favorite, but it's very appreciated!
- Ask me first if you want to submit a slayer OC, this way I can limit the number that comes in. If you are submitting a slayer, only second generations are allowed, but I'd honestly prefer not to have over one or two slayers in total. I'm not interested in receiving slayer OCs, just because I want to make this story unique from the original.
- THINGS TO AVOID/UNACCEPTED CONCEPTS: No gods/goddesses, demons, or carbon copies of canon characters. And under no circumstances will I accept immortal OCs, or OCs with magic that can make them immortal, causes death in one blow, demon magic, or anything that remotely resembles Zeref's curse. Overly powerful children will be edited, as well as summoning magic that uses necromancy.
- Do not send in a carbon copy of a canon character! I'm looking for original OCs that are unique in their own way, so please try to avoid creating someone too similar to canon. You may use similar magic types as previous characters but change it up, do not give me the exact same magic. I understand that it can be difficult to come up with entirely new concepts so I'll be very loose on magic types, but try to change things and be as original and unique as possible but have fun with it!
- I'll be pretty loose on judging OP character considering the universe this is set in, but please think about the characters age as well as their current level of realistic talents and experiences. I understand that there will be exceptions to this, but I don't want a ton of very young teenage characters that are already S-Class or children with extremely powerful magic. Be as realistic as you can, please! S-Class characters should be 21 years old and up, and I'll only be accepting four in total as of the moment.
- Limited siblings/relations as main OCs. If you're submitting more than one OC after you've PMed me, then you are allowed to send siblings/relations but I will be limited on this as to give more people a chance to apply for main spots, and the story doesn't automatically become about one specific OC and their life. I want everyone to have a fair amount of the spotlight here.
- DO NOT SEND IN AN ALREADY ACCEPTED OC WITHOUT ANY EDITS, CHANGE IT UP SOME! If you have an OC that is already in a story, then do not send them in unedited. If the story never started or you didn't get accepted, then you don't have to change your oc up, you can send it as is. I don't want previously accepted characters here that HAVE been used though, unless you change them up quite a bit, including their name and appearance. You don't have to completely rewrite it or anything, but make enough changes to where it's not the same exact form you've sent in. As long as the name is changed as well as a few other parts then you should be okay.

Personality: (Make this section as descriptive and detailed in explanation as possible! I prefer quality over quantity, but I would like for this section to be long and elaborate. Think of real people and how they act, their flaws, etc. Just who is your OC? What are they like? How do they act in situations? What are their traits? Their motivations/drive, what makes them function? Why are they this way? Give me the details on who your OC is.

How did their history mold them into who they are today? Where did they come from? Who did they live with? Please be detailed here and feel free to write whatever you would like. Don't just give me one or two sentences, telling me they were an orphan who randomly found the guild, without explaining what happened to their family or any important aspects of their life. If something happened to their family, then tell me a little about it. Maybe explain how they learned their magic, and so on. Remember that the year is X923, so 120 years since all of the events of Natsu and the destruction of Zeref.)

Magic: (Please refer to the rules for this section on what magic isn't acceptable and please do not completely copy canon characters. This is where you should tell me a bit about their magic type, such as what it is, how it works, where they learned it, strengths, weaknesses, is it defensive or offensive, maybe both?, etc. You may include a maximum of two types of magic, but I prefer for only one type of magic. If you have two, you need to have a good reason for it, and it needs to make sense, so nothing like "lightning and celestial magic." They should relate to each other in some way. Not everyone will be allowed to have two types, so this will be very limited! Make sure to ask first if you want to submit a slayer type of OC, for this will be limited as well, as I prefer for them not to be used.)

Anything else I may have missed:
Additional questions for villain OCs-
Why did you choose to become a villain and what are your goals as a villain? (Why are you this way? Did a specific event in your life set you down this path? Or were you maybe just corrupted from the start? Think about why a person would become a villain, this can be any reason.):
Would you change sides if the opportunity arose? And if so, why? (What kind of event would make you change your ways and would you feel remorseful for your offenses (such as Jellal and Ultear)? Again, this can be any reason):
Do you have any other motive or goals besides being a villain? (Goals in life you wish to accomplish outside of being a villain. Maybe you wish to find your lost sibling? Or you want to become a talented mage. Anything goes.):

Possible ideas for things to happen to the OC during this request: (Ex. Lucy and Natsu go on a request to find a missing item for a requestor. The item was actually stolen by the requestor to start with, but Natsu and Lucy aren't aware and the requestor wants them to do the dirty work of getting the illegal item back.)
