🚂✨ Express Orphanage | NEW FORUM POST!

IMPORTANT UPDATE!

We now have an official ToyHouse profile! We are remaking the official forum post and such as there are now new employees to work in the project. Please send forms and ask questions here from now on!

Please read everything carefully as we changed some parts of this post.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

The Express Orphanage is responsible for giving a new home to ocs who were no longer wanted by their previous owners. From world to world, the train travels quickly, delivering characters to homes where they will be loved and cared for.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

What is the Express Orphanage? How does it work?

Express Orphanage is a project that focuses on giving unwanted ocs a good new home. We have over 500 ocs up for adoption, patiently waiting for someone to adopt them!

To keep the project running, we have a policy regarding adoptions. You can only adopt 1 oc if you have 1 Train Ticket, which can be obtained by donating ocs to the project. Each oc donated is equivalent to 1 ticket, and 1 ticket is used whenever you adopt 1 oc. You can send us any oc you don't want anymore and adopt new ones with the tickets!

Click here to view how many tickets you have on a spreadsheet.

Rules regarding the process

• Dollmaker/AI ocs are not going to be accepted into the shelter to avoid what we call by "ticket gathering".
  Ocs created with little effort (bases filled with few colours, doodled characters without too many particularities) are not welcome, even more so if presented in large numbers: this will help us avoid the "ticket gathering" phenomenon.
• Be patient, we are a small team and we are dealing with many ocs at the same time!
• If you have any complaints or questions, please don't hesitate to send a dm to ExpressOrphanage for us to give you assistance.
• Reasons for adoption must contain: 2 sentences or more, and 1 clear reason about the use of the oc. Example of adoption reason that will be skipped: "I always wanted a wolf oc!". Example of adoption reason that will be accepted: "I love their design! I will use them for my story called [name], and they'll be friends to another oc of mine called [name]". You don't need to write a Bible, simply let us know about what you'll use the oc for! Write two sentences with one clear reason for each character that you desire to adopt.
