Date of Birth or Best Guess: April 4, in the third year of the Isle's creation.
Place of Birth: ...The only ones of us who weren't born on the Isle are Anthony Tremaine and his sisters. I don't know what you expect De Vil Manor, also known as Hell Hall; just off the edge of the fortune-telling district; two blocks over from the marketplace; The Isle of the Lost.
Favorite Color: Red, orange, yellow, white, and blue. Just because I'm a de Vil doesn't mean I can only like black and white, you know. Even if that is the color of my hair.
Favorite Activity: Setting fires Setting fires; spending time with my cousins. I also like setting off fireworks.

Father's Name (or alias): Cassius de Vil, better known as the younger brother of Cruella de Vil.
Mother's Name (or alias): Ivory de Vil.
Father's Profession: None, since he's dead. Although he used to set fires a lot. That's what he got sent to the Isle for. That's how he made a living here-people would hire him to burn down their enemies' houses.
Mother's Profession: None, since she's dead too. I know she used to con people out of their hard-earned money, but then so does everybody else here.
Who is your favorite of the first wave of VKs? There is no wrong answer.
My cousin, Carlos de Vil.
Okay, but seriously, how does this apply to which kids you're going to pick? Are you only going to choose personal friends of the first four? In that case, why isn't Dizzy Tremaine off the Isle already? Why does she even need an application? She's like Evie's little sister. Then again, if you're going to be making your selections based on nepotism, I suppose I'm a pretty good candidate, so I shouldn't worry. But what if someone has no favorite? What if someone has little to no connection with the first four-there's a lot of us here, you think everyone knows everyone so well? What if-[indecipherable].
In your own words, tell us why you want to come to Auradon. There is no wrong answer.
First of all, I would like to apologize for all the cross-outs above. That was the fault of my cousin Hunter; he had this idea that I should only write exact answers, what you wanted to hear, and not the full answers, not the real answers, not my opinions, not "too much information," because that way I would stand a better chance of getting in. I told him that if you were going to ask me questions I was going to answer them, and didn't Auradon want us to be honest, and that we have Carlos advocating for us anyway, and that if he didn't stop grabbing the pen away from me I was going to set his backpack on fire again, and also that I was the oldest cousin so he had to listen to me.
Anyway, no more of that should happen, because I'm on the roof now, and it'll be some time before he manages to find his camera from where I hid it, even with Diego helping him.
I want to go to Auradon because my youngest cousin Carlos de Vil is there. We-my cousins Hunter and Diego, and I-haven't seen him for nearly two years. Family is very important to de Vils. We want to be together.
Family was important to us de Vils in the previous generation, too. My uncle, Cecil de Vil, voluntarily went to the Isle, just so he could be with his sister Cruella. My father didn't, not at first, but a few years later he'd had enough and set a bunch of fires so he would get arrested and sent to the Isle so he could be with his siblings again.
Then again, if they hadn't, none of us would exist, because all of our parents only met each other on the Isle.
I want to see Carlos again, to see how he is, to make sure he's all right. But I don't want to leave Hunter and Diego. I'm the oldest, I'm supposed to be in charge. Especially with the adults-see, both of my parents, Hunter and Diego's mother, and Carlos's father are all dead. This leaves only my aunt Cruella and my uncle Cecil, and neither of them are quite well.
That's another reason why I want to go to Auradon. I'm hoping to find something that can help them. See, part of the reason why my uncle is the way he is now is because he's given up hope. Us kids are trapped on the Isle with no way off, no future. And my aunt...well, she's my aunt. That doesn't really help matters. But first Carlos made it off, and now if I do, that will show him that there is hope for us to have a future. Also maybe you'll have medicine or techniques or whatever for him. I don't know how it works.
I don't know about my aunt, though. I think she's a lost cause.
My uncle says she wasn't always like this. To which I say, once she's chased you through the house with a carving knife threatening to skin you while shrieking that you were trying to steal her furs, that doesn't matter much anymore, does it?
The thing is, like I said, family is very important to us. When Carlos went to Auradon, he had no choice-you chose him, Maleficent ordered him, and off he went.
But if I get chosen, I'll be leaving Hunter and Diego behind. The four of us will be split into two. I can't leave them here alone. I know they have each other, I know they can handle themselves very well, but they are my family.
What I am asking is to consider my application, yes, but only to accept me if you also accept my cousins, Hunter and Diego de Vil. But don't let them know I said this.
Thank you,

P. S. If you're reading this, Carlos, hi. We're all alive. Your mother's the same as always. Uncle Cecil misses you, I think. Your mother wanted to skin your cat for its fur but Diego rescued it before she could. Now it's living in the treehouse. Hunter wants to know more about the Internet and AI over there in Auradon. Diego says you owe him five bucks. If you see Uma, tell her that Harry Hook's taken over until she returns, that her crew eagerly awaits the day she does, and that we will always be loyal to her. But not when Mal's there, I guess. Ugh, I hate politics.
Love, Ivy
