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:
Specifically playing as a race that revolves around mechanics has always sparked a interest in me. Generally, one would expect a functional machine who is self-conscious to obtain some what of a dry humor. I also find that the abilities that the IPCs procure to be quite overpowering in many situations compared to humans.
Identify what makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a Human:
Many find IPCs essentially way more different than humans, one key difference that is clearly noticeable to many is how emotionless IPCs are. While there also being many upsides in becoming an IPC. There are also some challenges that their counterparts wouldn't usually have to worry about. One of them is having to constantly be agonizing about their surroundings and current situations taking part on the Station, EMP Blast specifically along with being way more valuable to the vacuum of space and in situations of extreme heat. Not to mention having to maintain their battery.
Character Name: EDI 1050
Please provide a short backstory for this character, approximately 2 paragraphs
EDI 1050, originally designated to a research outpost to originally help aid in the medical department of the outpost. The outpost was assigned to store more in-depth the resources and the mysteries that the planet Adhomai holds. Unfortunately one day the outpost was invaded by Syndicate Agents wanting to retrieve the rich minerals deposits that the outpost holds to further progress their goals by using the rich minerals to do so. While EDI 1050 was preforming surgery on a patient and unknown of the current attack that was to soon devastate his outpost, an EMP blast strike was known to hit leaving EDI 1050 in poor condition physically. Luckily a nearby doctor retrieved EDI 1050 and brought him to the robotics for fixing. In a matter of no time EDI 1050 was back up and functioning. Quickly he hurried towards the escape pod as instructed by the robotics while the intercom alerts all crew that Evacuation procedures are in effect. Unfortunately, he was stopped in his tracks once Nitrogen Oxide was dispersed in the air. His fellow peers was seen laughing than dropped to the ground asleep. HAL 1050 was left unaffected as he didn't need to intake air. HAL 1050 continued his journey to the Escape Pod while dragging the robotics that had save his life. With his battery nearly drained he grabbed onto a nearby APC and absorbed it's power. As he made his way to the escape pod he heard a loud noise that he resembles as a sound of a bullet. He turned his head in a swift motion and notice a bullet shot in the robotics chest. Now bleeding he took out a syringe and injected his shell. Fluids started coming out that he had once stored inside of him, he then injected Bicaridine and Paracetamol in the robotics body with the syringe. He alerted the AI using robot language over comms that he is approaching the Escape Pod and requested that upon entry that he launched it intermediately as they were currently being chased. With just enough luck he managed to escape. Seconds later, he went blank... Traveling for decades with an unknown coordination that the AI set for them was suddenly interrupted with a loud noise. The robotics grabbed hold of his gun and pointed it at the airlock. The airlock open with a tall 6'2 man feet who has a shirt labeled "Captain, NSS Exodus 231". HAL 1050 was dragged off to robotics. Upon arrival the Robotics opened up his control panal only to notice that he was created in 2458, which happened to be the latest model for IPC units. He was placed into the cyborg recharge and minutes later he had awoken. Fast forward a few days and he was assigned to the Medical Department to help assist on the NSS Exodus. To this day he proudly serves the NSS Exodus with pride and dignity while trying to make a few friends here and there...
What do you like about this character?
What I really like about IPC are the many role playing paths that you could take with it due to it's unique backstory. Not to mention the cool abilities it obtains. Should be exciting...
How would you rate your role-playing ability? I'll rate my role-playing ability decent. I have a few mistakes here and there but hopefully I'll progress as a role player as I go.
Notes: No, but thanks for considering my app! I'll also like to point out that I was a bit iffy on how I should narrate my backstory as I didn't know if I should explain EDI backstory as a whole or just one specific scene that was life changing to him. Took a look at a few apps but couldn't get a grasp on what to do.
