Unlike the retardation that is IPC heads of staff, I see no reason why IPC IAAs shouldn't be a thing. Perhaps being investigated by a cold, emotionless, machine could be interested.

I think you forgot to put a character background in.

First of all, all heads of staff need to be friendly and approachable, and capable of leadership. The HoS is no exception, even if he has guns. Secondly, I think the personality restraints are intentional. An entity that is completely unlike an organic should not be leading organics. If you want to play a cold machine, play a shaft miner, or cargo tech, or something.

Alexander Viatorem: He has worked hard his entire life to get to where he is, and now he is "on top of the world" in that he is extremely contented with his luxurious life, he is also on top of the world in that he holds a powerful position. The song has a wonderfully jolly feel to it, and, overall, captures the original feel I had in mind for Viatorem. A jolly oldish man. It doesn't, however, describe classical, fine, tastes, or his harsh, ruthless, side, that can come out occasionally...

Maybe get shot less? Since it sounds like it's an issue with your playstyle if you're concerned about dying from getting hit in combat. If you are an antagonist who is actually antagonising, there is a good chance you are going to get shot. All an antagonist needs to be absolutely shut down is one unlucky hit from a ballistic weapon, and now you want to add the same function to laser rifles? "get gud" is hardly a good response to what Jackboot said, because no matter how good you are, and especially if you try to RP more, you are going to get shot.

Take a moment and imagine this in real life. A scientist has just brought in some ancient artifacts, and instructed someone not to touch them. The scientist then has to fight off the apparently 7 year old girl who is trying to touch it, and fails. The artifact is touched, to disastrous effect. The engineer is like "AHAHHA TOUCHY TOUCHY THIS IS HILARIOUS AND DANGEROUS AND I WILL IGNORE THE SMART PERSON'S ADVICE AND RUN OFF WITH IT TOUCHY TOUCHY." This is chucklefucking and unbelievable, plain and simple. This character has a history of similar behaviour as well, in regards to the tesla. Forest has issues with authority, to stupid levels, in my opinion.

After great answers to my previous questions, it is a strong +1 from me.

There, should be fixed now. Thank you for pointing that out. Bit of a late night oopsy. HoP requires ten years in a department related field, did she get that in the navy?

I do enjoy playing with Lilly Hawkins, but I have no interactions with the other characters. Your answers to the questions hit all the points, I think. However, your backstory has a problem in that one cannot just be hired as a captain. You need to have worked for NanoTrasen for ten years, I think.

I'd be all for this. Reinforce that mice are pets. I emote biting when some pink haired nurse picks me up. EDIT: o shit I meant NOT! Mice are NOT pets! Nan- Nanako! G- get out of my head!

The ear slot represents the shoulder. That said, if I see anyone carrying a mouse around on their shoulder I reprimand them or report them to a head of staff. It is bad roleplaying. Very bad. My pet rat will happily sit on my shoulder - but a random mouse would definitely bite me if I tried to pick it up.

Not gonna lie, I am probably guilty of this to an extent. I think I'll try to play a more cunning, manipulative birbman.

I am sorry but what you just said is basically telling Hughes to power game in your view on what a Warden needs to be. I don't see how what DatBeryy suggested is powergaming.

I... honestly like the idea of a skills system mechanically impacting us. However, there are problems. What does command do? Scientific method skill? Engines skill? How would those be affected? And if there was a thing, if you rolled antag, you wouldn't want to be unable to hack, for example. There are problems, and people have said that this will never happen, ever. Ever. Eeeveeer. Personally, I like the idea of a skills system, but kinks would need to be sorted out. Sorry if this is rambly, I am very tired.

Latham's eyes aren't actually grey as her flavour text suggests, they're coloured contact lenses. It was way too subtle for anyone to catch on though, no matter how much I tried to get people to notice. There is a reason for her to want her eyes to look grey, too.

Bump. I like this idea. Sprites are already there. Maybe change the descs. Why not?

I adore the backstory. I was actually interested when I read it. The character is interesting, new and naive, and perhaps a little brainwashed, despite her poor upbringing, she still loves the party and humans. I can't wait to RP with this character.

Rest in peace our fallen soldiers <3

As per Sharp's announcement, I still wish to be considered for this.

Yes, she has done it in the past week. The 11th falls within the past week. Did it happen after or during the 11th? Garn said August, not September, I think.

Yes, she has done it in the past week.

I was going to make an IC report on this, but the player has kept the character alive, and obviously deaths by tesla are uncloneable, I don't think the player wants the event in question canon. One time, she intentionally misinterpreted an order from the CE, and this resulted in the tesla getting loose. As a self proclaimed expert on the tesla, it couldn't have been an accident. This is like overloading the SM, or bombing the station as non-antag. I *think* the actions resulted in three deaths, and I know it resulted in an emergency shuttle at one hour... on extended. The event either has to be canon, and the character gets rekt by CCIA, or it is deemed as an OOC issue, and the player stops fucking about with the damn tesla, in my opinion. Oh, just saw this: https://forums.aurorastation.org/viewtopic.php?p=84157#p84157. Are these the actions of one who wishes to stay employed? Is this at all realistic?

Alright, I'm happy with that response. I'm supporting.

The app is good but I feel like I've seen pretty validy behaviour from Kalstere. What would you say to that?

Okay. Yeah. Sometimes you are just a few TC off that last item you really need as a traitor, but traitors are really really strong as is. You can get a revolver and frag grenades, or revolver and cham projector with your TC, if you want to go loud. You could get a voice changer and thermals if you want to stalk maint and murder people. In my opinion, 25 is just the right amount. Traitors shouldn't be able to win in a straight up fight with sec, unless they have already killed off officers one by one, or looted the armoury, or so on. They can be sneaky about this - give an officer a grenade as a gift, and blow it up later, for example. One out of four officers dead. I really think 40TC will just encourage traitors buying everything they need and then murdering, rather then setting up and executing their gimmick or plan over the whole round. But I would agree with an ERT nerf. As a traitor, you hardly stand a chance against ERT. You can only kill them if they don't know who you are.
