BYOND Key: ManiacalFowl
Character Names: Isaac Finch
Species you are applying to play: Unathi
What color do you plan on making your first alien character: Sandy/ Orange-Brown
Have you read our lore section's page on this species?: Yup
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:
Unathi offer a unique perspective in dealing with a nuclear holocaust of recent time. Its very common in many other servers on SS13 to have Unathi simply living in a tomb world but Aurora offers the perspective of surviving and experiencing the disaster first hand. And not only that, both sides of the conflict offer sound ground on which they stood, neither was completely offending as say WW2 which offers amazing roleplaying possibilities and potential conflict with other Sinta aboard the station. Also, all other races are smelly.
Identify what makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a Human:
Unathi are different from humans because they were never at the top of technological prowess in the galaxy. They're leagues behind Skrell and Humans in terms of standing on the Galactic stage, barely pushing beyond just Moghes without external assistance. Not only this but they are aliens. Obviously. They by no means are going to react to certain situations and events the same way as Humans. They're a more honorable race and are much more likely to be fractured or set off because of recent events. They are new to dealing with neighbors and it shows.
Character Name: Javiks Ryzsyk
Please provide a short stupid long backstory for this character (Approximately two paragraphs)
What do you like about this character? (Describe what you like about this character):
What I like about Javiks as opposed to other characters that I've played in the past is that they are dealing with first hand, and at a very young age, the changing of their entire life as they know it. It is easy for us to imagine people in our world moving on from say the detonation at Nagasaki or Hiroshima, but the complete decimation of your planet is an extremely fascinating topic to explore. Not only is he a survivor of the War but some may also consider him and his clan deserters of the Traditionalist cause, and to some that may be true, but to the people aboard the Warcarrier, they believed the Lord did the right thing, to save the families and preserve a future for their species.
How would you rate your role-playing ability?:
I've been at this roleplaying thing for a while, on SS13 and in other mediums. I think I'm a decent player and believe I can encapsulate a young war-torn Unathi from a militaristic background.
