BYOND Key: JoeTheBro Discord Username: thebroseph Character Name: Darvan Omega Item Name: painted leather jacket Item Function(s): Leather jacket. Item Description: This leather jacket has been roughly painted cyan on the left arm and purple on the right arm. There appears to be an uppercase omega symbol on the back, drawn in the same paint from the respective halves of the jacket. You can see a faint NT logo beneath the omega symbol if you look hard enough. Why is your character bringing this item to work?: He thinks it looks cool, and it has a subtle anti-corporate sentiment (painted over corporate logo) that appeals to his Dreg background. How did your character obtain this item?: He painted over his NanoTrasen leather jacket with a paint gun, hence the rough finish referenced in the description. He got the idea while attempting to remove the original NT logo in an act of defiance after he believed was becoming a bit too corporate lately. He's worn the default NT leather jacket a lot of times on many shifts, so it's also not out of nowhere. What value does this item have to your character, and what story does it tell?: I think it’s a funny statement to show how Darvan Omega still values his heritage as a Dreg over his employment on a corporate ship even after a few years, so he would probably value it highly, especially since he decorated it himself. Sprites: omegajacket.dmi Additional Comments: I realised that the SCC might have a problem with openly wearing anti-corporate clothing on the ship, however I think it’s easily deflected by the fact that the Omega symbol doesn’t really have any official anti-corporate connotations, and also by the fact that Darvan would probably just lie and say the symbol had faded before he decided to paint over it. This is especially a good lie due to the timing of the Horizon’s deep space expedition- repurposing an old jacket is resourceful. Also, I decided it’s probably time to commemorate a five or six year old character with a bit of unique kit. Sorry if there's any problems with the sprites, this is my first time attempting to sprite something properly. The sprites attached include open and closed sprites, as well as the icons for the unworn jacket.

good player good ce splendid plus one pal.............................

this chump may be the widest elyran i've ever seen, in all seriousness good RPer and a fun dude +1

I think this is a really good idea, but as many people have said interfacing with electrical equipment on the station could be a bit overpowered and would definitely make it a lot harder to hide/run from the terminator, also, how would the terminators be able to infiltrate the staff? In the terminator series, teleporters require the person to be completely naked, so I think it would be very very hard for the terminators to silently slip into the crew as they'd be naked, and would lack an Identification card, immediately making the terminators stand out from the rest of the crew just the same way Wizard and Ninja does, though I really do support this idea. I just feel that it would be way too challenging for the Terminators, but your aim may not even be to infiltrate the station, it really depends on how you're viewing it. If there was some sort of system that the terminators could infiltrate the station without alarming anyone, then it would truly be like paranoia, as you said it would be similar to. Another suggestion would be to perhaps include a large bunch of the crew, for example, the future leader/leaders could have a few unknown supporters, which would most likely see the death of their friend a martyr for their cause, and would take up their work, including more people that need to be protected/killed. Apart from these minor details, I think this is a really good idea for a game mode and would enjoy playing it. (One last suggestion, if people attempt to interfere with the terminator's assassination/protection they are seen as a threat and could possibly be included in to the gamemode, it's up to you how they would be included perhaps)

I've seen you around the server a lot recently, and I think you're a good roleplayer. Your answers are also reasonably long enough to be substantial. I'm going to give a +1 for this, good job and good luck.
