1. App rounds will be every month, always on the 22nd. Feel free to check out our Calendar for the other dates, like Invites and Reserves.

2. OOC, it means you get to keep all your character's abilities but also add the new one from their court, or it means your character has no abilities and you want to give them one. IC, it means you owe the fae something. This is largely a bad thing, much like using a credit card when you don't actually have the money. When this character interacts with the court rulers, they will get to take advantage of the fact that this character owes them now.
