"I tell no one any story but his own." (take 2)
All right, so.
Since Aslan is basically the equivalent of GOD in his world, that means, aside from being practically omnipotent, he is also omniscient - i.e. there is canonical evidence for him knowing not only about what happens in worlds that aren't his own, but also about people (their names, etc) before he even talks to them. For the sake of the game, this will obviously be toned down in terms of what he can/cannot know about in-game events and people, but just so I'm not stepping on any toes, please fill out the following form so I know what he can know about your character!
Name: Character Name | Character Journal
Race: I.e., is your character human or something else? Can he know that?
World Information: Canon Name | Canon Link (wiki or something like it is fine)
Summarize- What kind of place does your character come from? Is it Earth? Another planet? Have any major, world-shaking events happened recently? What kind of creation/god mythos is there?
Personal Information: A link to the character's application or some other informational source would be great, along with a brief summary of the character's life.
Issues to Be Explored: Since Aslan is very much about counseling those who need it, what, in particular, would you like Aslan to pick up about your character and address? Can be positive or negative.
Religious Affiliation: Is your character devout in some shape or form?
Plot: Is there anything your character is doing in the Port that he might know about/be interested in?
Stipulations: Can Aslan mention any of the above information publicly? If so, how much?
Tagging: Are you okay with Aslan tagging your character's posts, whether it be over the NV's or in person?
Just as a note: Aslan, as a rule, will never disclose any personal information about your character to others. He isn't the type to intervene either so even if your character is dastardly and evil, he probably won't do anything about it. Free Will, and all that.
Also, regarding fourth-walling: If you think your character would ICly know about Aslan (i.e., he/she has read the books or seen the films), feel free to recognize him! Since he's from the end of Voyage of the Dawn Treader, though, I'd rather people didn't get too much into the details of the later books.

Race: Human
World Information: Firefly | Canon Information (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firefly_%28TV_series%29) and info for the movie (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serenity_%28film%29)
Summarize- Earth was abandoned 500 years ago and a new solar system has been terraformed and colonized over the past 400. The first planets to be settled near the center of the system, known as Core worlds, decided they wanted to form an Alliance that would govern all the colonies, prompting a huge war between these central planets and the Independent planets on the rim, which the latter lost. The Alliance turned out to be more than a little totalitarian, keeping a tight control on the people in order to keep them safe and prosperous. In their efforts to maintain this control they conducted secret experiments on their citizens, two of which produced River Tam and the Reavers. Recently it was made public knowledge that Reavers, which the Alliance had tried to keep out of the public eye, were real and the government's fault, though we don't see the repercussions of this, it's bound to be a hard blow to the Alliance's power.
Mythology wise, the two most popular religions seem to be Christianity and Buddhism, and there are some suggestions that the exodus from Earth That Was is becoming the stuff of myths. Whenever it's discussed it's always with terms such as 'Earth That Was' and using female pronouns for the planet, there are never any hard facts given.
Personal Information: Here. (http://giftedistheterm.livejournal.com/14139.html#cutid1) Simon was a son of the Alliance who had to give up everything to rescue his sister from the Alliance run Academy, where they were performing experimental surgeries in order to turn the brilliant young girl into a psychic assassin under their control. He joined up with a crew of misfits on a run-down old Firefly-class ship named Serenity, serving as the medic while the crew kept moving on finding any work they could to get by, legal or illegal. Eventually Simon figured out how to fit in to the crew, settling into his new life. He helped pull off jobs and let himself fall in love with Kaylee the ship's mechanic, though he would still put his sister's well-being above everything else.
Issues to Be Explored: Simon has his act together for the most part. He has a strong moral compass that can deliberately be skewed if he deems it 'necessary', and any remorse he feels for these actions are deeply hidden. We do know that he misses the safety and comfort of his old life before River was taken (something I'm trying to hint at with the Shadow plot), but he still soldiers on. Perhaps just the occasional reminder that he doesn't have to do everything alone, that his sister will be all right some day (or close enough)...just someone to keep an eye on him to keep him from falling too far, maybe?
Religious Affiliation: I play Simon as pretty much agnostic. There's no hint to what he was raised as, if anything, though he seems knowledgeable and respectful of other religious beliefs, we never see him pray for divine assistance himself. If anything, Simon probably believes that he's better off helping himself.
Plot: Once I get back into the swing of things I do want to get Simon involved with SERO. Now that River is with him he's going to start looking more into ways of getting them home where it's safer. He's also discovered his power which might end up being abused if SERO finds out about it as well.
Stipulations: I'm okay with things being revealed if it would make sense IC, but from Simon's point of view, he'd prefer information about his criminal background and his sister's condition to be kept as private as possible.
Tagging: Yes please. :D
