Have you read our lore section's page on this species?: Yes, the Skrell section as well as other pages of Lore
Please provide well articulated answers to the following questions in a paragraph format. One paragraph minimum per question
Why do you wish to play this specific race: I find the Skreel a much more interesting race than the other ones on the lore, they crave for
knowledge and have a deep interest on space and science, something i can relate on. The Skrell are older than other races and much more logical and rational, wich i find amusing and fun to roleplay as. Also i think they are the coolest race avalible, along with the misterious Vox, and i can't quite comprehend why they aren't so many Skreels around.
Identify what makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a Human: First of all, they have their own language, wich can be used via the :k command. They have a different diet as humans, not being able to consume hard food due to the lack of teeth, they can also breathe underwater.
In terms of Roleplay, their social skills seem off for most species, but they are as emotional as others, they have a fascination with technology as well as other cultures. Skrell are much more peacefull than other races, often thinking stuff several times before making a decision, rash decisions are not their style, as well as admit mistakes. They don't make a deal out of genders or racism towards them, proud of their status as Skrell.
Character Name:Kila So'lesaj
Please provide a short backstory for this character, approximately 2 paragraphs
Kila was born in Jargon V on 2412 CE, her father Gubrlik and mother Nash'jla were very proud of their achievment, their only daughter. Little Kila grew up in the cold planet, she lived in a convoluted era of change, years before the creation of the Second Jargon Federation was a shock and now, only one year after her birthday a new species was found! The Humans.
From a very little age Kila developed an interest in these lifeforms, perhaps something common for childs bornd during so much change, she always asked her parents about humans, how they live, how they research stars... how they relate with eachother. Humans became a topic to investigate in her early years of existence, reading various books, even reading famous human autors. She developed a eager-to-learn personality towards humans, and of course, the stars.
Contrasting with her parents, she is a very "noisy" member of Skrellian society, she usually spends hours chatting with other species about their lifestyles, her father has said that she does not fear of any organic lifeform, the same can't be said about A.I, Kila simply can't trust them, especially knowing how much grief synthetics brought to her people and family.
Crew members usually point out how weird it is to have her around, she's always interested in other people problems, ready to solve them, even if not needed.
At the age of 43 Kila signed to be part of the NSS Aurora, the thougth of being in a station, researching with humans and other species about plasma, it was an oportunity she could not miss, she has helped around the station for two long years until the current date...
What do you like about this character? She is knowledge angry, awaiting for new challenges and very interested into human social relations, i think it'll be a fun character to play, and interacting with the crew will be very exciting.
How would you rate your role-playing ability? I've been playing for a year now, i always loved roleplay, even in not RP oriented videogames, it really helps the immersion, however, i just don't have that much practice as other veteran members around here, besides English is not my native language, wich complicates things eve more, i'd go with a 7/10, with more room to improve and learn.
Notes: Even if i don't make the cut, i'll gladly accept critics.
