Under the cut you can check out all the players that have been accepted for their roles. Congratulations! Please take a look at the instructions at the bottom of the page. For those who haven’t been accepted this time around, don’t be discouraged! Send me a message if you want more feedback on your application and I would love for you to re-apply in the future! Congratulations again to all of you and Welcome to RESURGENCE!

✦ Roman, you’ve been accepted to play the roles of Heath Arlington & Cormac Newman. You chose two characters that are practically opposites, and yet you managed to bring them both to life. I was completely in love with both your applications! For Heath, I absolutely adored the way you developed the parallels between Cerberus and the underworld, and how much the club means to them. And for Cormac my favourite thing is definitely his identity crisis of sorts, and how he’s trying to solve it actually making it the topic of his thesis. I think there’s so much potential here and I can’t wait to start seeing them in action! Great job! (fcs: finn wittrock, thomas doherty)

✦ Marie, you’ve been accepted to play the roles of Elena Lima & Pietro da Costa. Elena and Pietro are trouble in such different ways, but also in the best way. Elena with her almost naivety when it comes to romance, and her need for attention; and then Pietro, this reformed devastatingly charming surfer who’s out to break all of our hearts. It’s not easy to write two apps for two major gods like Aphrodite and Poseidon - but you managed to do it wonderfully! I can’t wait to start writing with you, and see what’s going to happen with them. Amazing job! (fcs: bianca santos, marlon teixeira)

✦ Shannon, you’ve been accepted to play the roles of Valentine Wyght. I absolutely loved Valentine’s family history, and how much that impacted on his personality. How is rebellious ways started as a way of trying to belong, and the search for a place he could finally called home basically still follows him around. I can’t wait to see what’s going to happen to him now that he’s back and he’s clearly seeing things from a different perspective. Is the bad boy attitude over for good? I guess we’ll have to wait and see. Amazing job! (fc: sean teale)

✦ Harleigh, you’ve been accepted to play the roles of Rhiannon Hébert. A champion returns! Lawful evil Rhiannon? Sign me up! One of the most interesting things about Hera as a goddess is how grey her morals are. Sometimes she’s a hero, sometimes she’s an icon, and others she appears like a true villain. I think your app for Rhiannon reflects just that. It’s hard to portray such a morally grey character in a modern setting, but you did a wonderful job, and I can’t wait to see the queen of Mount Wells in action! Drama is assured! (fc: paulina singer)

✦ Kiki, you’ve been accepted to play the roles of Dorian Winslow. One of the things I love the most about Dorian is that he’s such a wild card. The way he’s written, mixed with the Dionysus’ soul component pretty much allows you to go anywhere with him. You saw this change, and took advantage from it flawlessly. From his passion for art, to his predilection for social media, to his commitment when it comes to equality; there’s a lot of potential there and i can’t wait to see him in action! Great job! (fc: avan jogia)

✦ Nat, you’ve been accepted to play the roles of Naia Guerrero. What a lovely and refreshing application this was! I’m so glad that Naia is here to complete our trio! I love how determined she is, how passionate she is, her relationship with the ocean since the beginning, how her parents’ divorce affected her, and how she balances partying and having fun with starting her own life project. I think there’s so much potential there, for both development and drama, and I can’t wait to see what’s in store for her. Wonderful job! (fc: bruna marquezine)

✦ Kat, you’ve been accepted to play the roles of Vera Whittemore. I love love love how much thought you put into this application. You just need to read your occupation section to realise you’ve planned everything in Vera’s life to the T, and that’s absolutely amazing to see. You’ve managed to take the info in the skeleton, and give it your own twist, turning Vera into a complex character I’m so eager to see grow here. I can’t wait to write with you and see her in action. Congratulations! (fc: dominique provost-chalkley)

✦ Izzy, you’ve been accepted to play the roles of Edith Pratt. There’s a Clover, and also an Edith, and I couldn’t be happier we got our terrible duo complete from the very beginning! I love the extra quotes you added to the app, but my favourite part were definitely the headcanons. The ones about her relationship with her mum in particular. I feel like you managed to keep the “villain” aspect of Edith but at the same time you made her realistic, and that was amazing to read. I can’t wait to see what she brings to the table! (fc: sky ferreira)

✦ Nella, you’ve been accepted to play the roles of Nina Campbell & Thea Crawford. When I saw your apps for these characters, my first thought was that it was going to be difficult not to make them similar. Even though their stories and backgrounds are completely different, it would be easy to fall for that trap. However, you avoided it completely! You gave Nina a very defined personality, and you wrote a very misguided one for Thea, which I believe was key for both interpretations. I can’t wait to see what kind of situations they’ll both go through now that they’re making changes in their lives. Great job!  (fc: naomi scott, sofia carson)

✦ Dani, you’ve been accepted to play the roles of Tristan Santiago. Finally a Tristan! I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw your application. I absolutely loved how detailed it was. Tristan’s relationship with his family, everything to do with his biological father, and his reaction to this sudden fame he has gained after what happened - everything is so well thought and beautifully written that I could go on and on about all the parts I enjoyed while I was reading it. I can’t wait to write with you and see Tristan develop! Wonderful job! (fc: diego boneta)

✦ Mia, you’ve been accepted to play the roles of Dera McClery. I absolutely love Dera. I think she’s one of the most interesting characters of this roleplay, and I’m so glad she has found such a passionate roleplayer to bring her to life. My favourite part of your app were definitely the headcanons. You managed to combine fundamental traits of her character with little things that also paint a perfect picture of who Dera McClery is. I can’t wait to see what’s in store for her and her abilities! Congratulations! (fc: saoirse ronan)

✦ Chloe, you’ve been accepted to play the roles of Amdeus Minett. We have all of our love gods with us and I couldn’t be happier about that! Pretty much like Eros and Aphrodite themselves, Amadeus and Elena paint such a different picture of what love means, and I’m eager to see how that develops. I love how passionate he is about his art and how his creations seem to be the only true love he can keep (and let me tell you, I also appreciate that you went into so much detail about his art preference). There’s a ton of potential, and I can’t wait to see Amadeus grow as a character! Amazing job! (fc: joe keery)

✦ Caitlin, you’ve been accepted to play the roles of David Arevalos. A starving artist that works as a barista - I read that bit and I was already in love. David is simply adorable, and your application was a pleasure to read. I love his sensitivity, the way he thinks about art, and his interest in divination was such a good addition! Honestly all I could think while I read the app was that I want him as a best friend, please. I can’t wait to see him in action, and all that he’s going to bring to the rp! Congratulations!  (fc: tyler posey)

✦ Morgan, you’ve been accepted to play the roles of Preston Carver. I was dying for a Preston! He’s definitely one of my favourite characters (maybe because I’m a gamer who plays D&D as well). I love that he’s the go to guy whenever someone is having computer problems (the text to his mum killed me), and on a more serious note, I really enjoyed how you balanced his gamer past with his present - how he enjoys interacting with people and how his personality comes alive when he’s on stream. Also I play a rogue, so much appreciated. Great job!   (fc: alberto rosende)

✦ Jane, you’ve been accepted to play the roles of Zachary Bailey. I was so relieved when your application came because I was afraid we were going to start without our king of Mount Wells himself! Your interpretation of Zac is basically all that I would except in a modern Zeus, and more. Occupation: rockstar? Depending on his father’s money? Trying to drag his friends around towards every crazy scheme he comes up with? Just flawless. And to conclude, the text messages made me laugh out loud. Amazing job! (fc: michael b. jordan)

✦ Spooky, you’ve been accepted to play the roles of Katrin Moreno (soul of Hecate). I love love the whole idea of Katrin. Their relationship with their parents, their grandmother, how they leaned on their friends, the fact that their background was so different from the usual one you’d find in Mount Wells - and yet they persevered and turned that into something magical; honestly I was hooked from the very beginning. I truly believe they will be a fantastic addition to the roleplay, and I can’t wait to see them in action! Congratulations! (fc: danny noriega/adore delano)

✦ Emma, you’ve been accepted to play the roles of Clover Wald. This was such a difficult decision! Both applications had very good and different interpretations of Clover. Ultimately what swayed me was the amazing balance of her neutral evil nature. I enjoy a character who isn’t afraid to do morally grey stuff and is proud of it - and that’s exactly what Clover is about. There’s so much potential in her, and honestly I can’t wait to see how exactly she’ll shake things up. Wonderful job! (fc: courtney eaton)

✦ Aaliyah, you’ve been accepted to play the roles of Layla Dunn. Layla is completely and absolutely adorable. I love the fact that she’s very rational and practical, but she’s also got some pluck in her. I also find really interesting that she’s participating in the Science fair to possibly gain some perspective on what to do after she graduates. I feel that was a great way of giving your own interpretation and twist to the info in the skeleton! On a side note, the bit about Pottermore was fantastic; and I’m also addicted to Color Switch. Great job! (fc: jessica sula)

Neymar, Pogba, Eriksen: La Liga deadline deals to look out for on Monday

Is El Clasico going to be on the agenda for Paul Pogba, Neymar or Christian Eriksen this season?

Transfer deadline day might have already been and gone in Britain, but in many European countries it remains open until Monday and some huge deals could still be struck.

Most of the big-money moves are likely to take place in Spain’s La Liga, where potential swoops by the big guns have dominated the headlines for much of the summer.

The biggest story, of course, has been the uncertainty over the future of a certain Brazilian superstar…

Is Neymar returning to Barcelona?

By far the most high-profile, drawn-out and costly move of the summer would be the return of Neymar to Barcelona from Paris St Germain.

On the face of it, the transfer should be simple: Neymar wants to join Barca, PSG want him out and Barca want him in. But the deal is beset by political boardroom machinations deep enough to make Brexit look like a playground squabble over hopscotch, so it has been very difficult to get over the finishing line.

A big complication is that Barca don’t have enough money, they even had to take out a bank loan to complete the signing of Antoine Griezmann from Atletico Madrid earlier in the summer. The Catalan club have been trying to conjure up creative alternatives, such as a player-exchange or a loan deal with a compulsory purchase clause, but none of these have been accepted by PSG.

The French club rejected Barca’s latest offer following two days of talks earlier this week, and reports on Saturday claimed that Neymar has now given up on sealing the move despite the clubs agreeing a valuation of around 200 million euros. However, given the secretive and shady nature of this particular deal, that could be no more than another outbreak of mind games. It’s probably safest not to believe anything until the final bell has sounded.

European transfer deadline day – Monday, 2 September Deadline (times all BST) English League One and Two 17:00 Bundesliga 17:00 Serie A 19:00 La Liga 23:00 Ligue 1 23:00 Scottish leagues Midnight

Considering the sky-high fee and the acrimonious manner of his departure from the Camp Nou two summers ago, it’s not surprising that Neymar’s possible return to the club is being met with a fair amount of opposition.

Former Barca director Toni Freixa summed up the hostility by tweeting: “We’re jeopardising the club’s economic sustainability. I don’t understand what interests are at stake, but those of Barcelona surely are not.”

But president Josep Maria Bartomeu appears to be ready to forgive Neymar and forget all the fuss his forced departure caused a couple of years ago, so one of the most sensational transfers in football history could still happen despite the lack of progress in recent days.

However, an increasingly popular conspiracy theory – expressed by former France international Frank Leboeuf among others – claims that Barca have no intention whatsoever of completing the deal and are actually handing Neymar an elaborate form of punishment for his earlier treachery, with the added bonus of stringing along PSG for a few months.

Surely not…?

Dembele and Rakitic: pawns in the deal?

Ousmane Dembele joined Barcelona in a £135.5m deal from Borussia Dortmund in 2017

The key to completing the Neymar deal could be whether one or more of Barca’s current stars agree to move to Paris in return, and over the course of the summer practically half the Camp Nou squad have been linked with PSG as part of the transaction.

Right-back Nelson Semedo, central defender Samuel Umtiti and former Liverpool star Philippe Coutinho (who ended up joining Bayern Munich on loan) are among those who were reportedly offered or requested as pawns without agreement being reached.

Another name thrown into the hat is Ivan Rakitic. And suspicion is provoked by the fact that although the experienced Croatian midfielder has been virtually ever-present over the last couple of years (only Lionel Messi has started more league games since manager Ernesto Valverde arrived in 2017), he was left on the bench for the first three games of the new campaign.

Along with Rakitic, Barca could be prepared to part with flying French winger Ousmane Dembele, who has been no more than a partial success since arriving as a big-money replacement for Neymar from Borussia Dortmund (where he had been managed by current PSG coach Thomas Tuchel).

Dembele has shown flashes of his enormous talent during his time at the Camp Nou but he has also tested Valverde’s patience by regularly suffering injuries amid reports of personal indiscipline – it should be noted, though, that Dembele has played more games for his club (66) than Neymar (58) in the last two seasons, so the ‘injury prone’ tag cannot be fairly used as a decisive factor against the Frenchman.

Brazilian midfielder Arthur Melo – largely overlooked by Valverde so far this season – and young centre back Jean Clair Todibo have also been touted as possible PSG recruits. There’s every chance that Neymar’s move to Barcelona will only happen if at least one player heads in the opposite direction.

A late Real bid for Pogba?

Paul Pogba has made an indifferent start to the new Premier League season with Manchester United

Real Madrid have also been consistently linked with a swoop for Neymar this summer, with the Bernabeu club’s president Florentino Perez a long-term admirer of the Brazilian star’s match-winning abilities along with his commercial pulling power off the pitch.

However, the arrival of Eden Hazard and the failure to dispense with Gareth Bale or James Rodriguez means that Zinedine Zidane’s squad is already amply stocked with winger/forwards, and speculation about Real snatching Neymar away from Barca has significantly died down over the last few days.

That doesn’t mean Real have definitely concluded their business for the summer though, because an addition to the centre of midfield is very much on the agenda for Zidane, who quipped on Saturday that his club could still explode a “bomb, or two bombs” before the window closes.

Over the last 12 months the club have allowed the departures of Mateo Kovacic (to Chelsea), Dani Ceballos (Arsenal) and Marcos Llorente (Atletico Madrid) without making any major additions in the middle of the pitch, leaving inexperienced Uruguayan Fede Valverde as the only alternative to the long-serving trio of Luka Modric (who will turn 34 next month), Toni Kroos and Casemiro.

It’s no secret that Paul Pogba has been Zidane’s number one target ever since he returned to the Bernabeu six months ago, and the coach has been left frustrated by his club’s failure to make progress with Manchester United over his compatriot.

Tottenham’s Christian Eriksen and Ajax star Donny van de Beek are the other leading options, and Bruno Fernandes from Sporting Lisbon has also been linked, but Pogba remains Zidane’s favoured choice and it would be unwise to completely rule out developments before Monday’s deadline.

Zidane certainly won’t want to head into the campaign with only four midfielders at his disposal, so it would be more surprising if Real don’t sign someone. The question is whether United can be persuaded into striking a deal.

The transfer of Atletico Madrid forward Angel Correa may be key to several other deals taking place in Europe

Atletico and Sevilla swooping for strikers?

La Liga’s early pace-setters, Atletico Madrid and Sevilla, are both looking to boost their striking departments before Monday’s deadline.

Atletico have already come close to signing all-action Spain international Rodrigo Moreno from Valencia, with a planned 65 million euros swoop progressing far enough for Rodrigo to start saying his farewells to his Valencia team-mates on the dawn of the new season.

But then AC Milan’s bid for Atletico forward Angel Correa – which would have financed the deal – fell through at the last minute, so Rodrigo has stayed in Valencia for now. Milan’s move for Correa could still be reignited, though, and that would pave the way for Rodrigo to complete his transfer to the capital.

In turn, the income from that transfer could see Valencia finalise an agreement with Barcelona for creative midfielder Rafinha, while the Mestalla club are also seeking a cut-price right-back following a long-term injury to regular starter Cristiano Piccini.

Along with Atletico the only other team in La Liga to win their opening two games is Sevilla, where there has already been a summer of frantic activity after the return of iconic director of football Monchi resulted in no less than 12 new signings – and they are not finished yet.

The Andalusians waved goodbye to three strikers during the off-season, with Wissam Ben Yedder, Andre Silva and Luis Muriel all departing, and West Ham striker Javier ‘Chicharito’ Hernandez has been lined up to support Dutch target man Luuk de Jong, a summer arrival from PSV.

Another striker who could be on the move – perhaps even to Sevilla if the Chicharito deal falls through – is Real Madrid striker Mariano Diaz, who scored 21 goals for Lyon in the 2017/18 season but is unwanted by Zidane and will be available for around 20 million euros on deadline day.

All these potential transfers, though, are being abandoned into the shadows cast by the truly big story of the summer: will there be another late twist in the Neymar saga?
