@RockingRev Bro, I'm getting mundo munchies for some jerky #validsalad

Can they suddenly have a hood appear in their inventory and a sudden urge to parkour off walls.

I'm all for this. I can't tell you how many times I get gunned downed as an antag without allowing me to either surrender or respond. I recall one time I was breaking into tech storage, and all I had was a tool box but I was still shot up, nearly died too. Another time I was a cultist in the warehouse, and I was one of the unarmed individuals by the wall but I still got gunned down. Sure those situations are stressful, but if the person has nothing in their hand then you don't shoot them up.

Miko could be a 'cleaner' if ever needed.

I feel certain writers lean to particular categories when developing lore. I feel there's some who love to write the science of it, some enjoy the history and others the culture (art, religion, politics.) And when they have to develop something out of their preferred category, they may loath the experience and end up with something forced, maybe a little clunky. So perhaps if the 'Lore Caste' could split up the duties, say for example, the Skrell planet could be developed by one guy while the other develops all the fluffy cultural stuff? I know it's the big issue, but perhaps it allow for the Lore Writers to find more enjoyment? But I do think having a lay out something like: -Species overview page >History page > Timeline page > Wars >Culture page > Religion > Arts > Food So that you keep the abundance of information which some people enjoy, but have them stem from an overview page that will be in place for those who just want to know how to play the species right. It could be adapted for planets and such too.

Revvy Black's birth name is actually Rebecca Black. But due to certain circumstances, she had her name legally changed.

Socialising in the game is socialising in real life, you put yourself out there and try not to be a complete bastard. For example, two of my characters will get involved like nobodies business. That being Peter Stone and Revvy Black, who've made friends and enemies quite quickly. And that was only achieved by engaging other characters.

I did propose using a smaller station for dead hour, one that has a crew of twenty or so. But we don't really have one and Skull didn't like the idea of piling more things onto the already heavy workload for that of Frances or the other Developers.

I would enjoy an event where the crew were convicts and such (which I think is in the works anyway) so I do kind of like the idea, but the only thing as of yet for convicts is the opportunity to use their tasty brains for cyborgs.

Pretty much the reason why I created Revvy Black. A pretty much obnoxious and a little ignorant character that I use to interact with the crew. I mean, she isn't the most refined character but I've found myself finding things more enjoyable when playing a character who shameless butts into private affairs and the lark.

Sushi is actually the rice, Sushimi is the fish.

I've scrapped the language idea due to it not really holding much ground. He should now, be pretty much a heavily augmented Zhan-Khazan with life on the black market. That shouldn't be too much of an issue, hopefully.

Not entirely, if you can pinpoint which block gives you what, then you can inject yourself with all the powers. Which should be discouraged, that's why even if you do inject yourself with that isolated block, there's a chance something would go horribly wrong.

We should make it so there's a good chance something will go wrong when you try injecting yourself with random enzymes to get pooper powers. Like a chance your body will have a bad reaction to it and cause organ failure, perhaps necrosis which will result in limbs falling off or something. You know, some awful stuff that happens when you attempt to rewrite your genetic code with the prick of a needle.

No need to apologise, the back story was written in a matter of minutes so it'd undoubtedly need refining. Which is why I'm happy to answer queries, helps me.flesh out the.concept. I was doubtful about the language myself and may trash the idea. Though I must say the universe is a big place, so I can see people getting away with illegal activity

Mainly lower tier jobs like working in supply, custodial or civilian work. Though I may put him into internships so.that his skills develop during his employment.

Fifty Shades of Medbay: Based after the top selling book sharing the same name. A Nursing Intern finds herself working in a Medbay on board a space station. She soon discovers there are many secrets behind closed doors within the Medical facility after discovering the Chief Medical Officer, a somewhat stern but compassionate woman, showing a young plucky chemist discipline. Once the Intern's eyes had been opened, she soon realizes the sordid nature of her peers and their intent to corrupt her somewhat innocent nature. A tasteful movie, that is definitely not porn. La chanson racine A silent surrealist picture by French director Jean Noir, depicts the learning of a Diona nymph and it's discovery of a shoe. The movie is black and white for a somewhat artistic flavour, and is voiced over exclusively in Rootsong but has subtitles translated into a Haiku format. During the movie, the nymph attempts to figure out the purpose of this shoe and involves various dream cycles that contain impressionism dancing and acting in the 'Berkovian' style. A very raw masterpiece, best enjoyed with a bucket of chicken wrapped in kale.

The Kitchen shutters should start off closed at the beginning of the shift, to show that the kitchen isn't open. Because it kind of bugs me to see people go 'Hurr durr furr burr hungry' and climb over the counter, basically trespassing and screwing up the kitchen. It's an IC issue I know, but ICly the shutters would be done when the kitchen isn't active.

BYOND Key:Jakers457 Character Names: Micheal Forte, Peter Stone, Daniel Escher, James Brook How long have you been playing on Aurora:A good couple of months or so? Species you are applying to play:Tajaran What color do you plan on making your first alien character (Diona exempt):A grey colour? Have you read our lore section's page on this species?: Oui 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:It's pretty much the first race I played on SS13. Though some may enjoy playing the Tajaran to live out their anthromorphic dreams, I kind of enjoy the cultural tensions and the hardships presented in the every day life of the Tajaran. Identify what makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a Human: Humans have a completely different experience than Tajaran, nor have the limitations forced upon them. So I'd like to be able to play a character who has to overcome much more than the average white male in his thirties. And in that sense, to see a Tajaran in a head position would be rare and it would be more focused around the lower paid roles aboard the station. Why does this species in particular hold your interest? As stated before, mainly the hardships presented to them. But it's also the culture that seems to be more indepth than most of the races, perhaps because the lore is more about the history and culture, opposed to war like tradition or scientific endeavours. Character Name: Miko Du'Razhu Please provide a short backstory for this character, approximately 2 paragraphs This might be a little snowflakey, but eh. Miko Du'Razhu was a slave pretty much from birth and was sold to a group of researchers via the black market. The group of researchers wanted to explore the possibilities of creating a fully augmented worker, a potentially cheaper alternative to the cyborgs but lasts longer than the standard employee. Miko's childhood mainly consisted of being chopped and changed with various mechanical parts, followed by stress testing to see how long he could go for without collapsing. When he was in his adoloscence, he was taught various trade skills that you might find in Engineering and other operations departments. With this, they were hoping to see whether employees in Engineering could work more efficiently if they weren't limited to a somewhat organic fatigue. Obviously, due to the tendency of electric magnetic pulse near the engine bay and near the solars, they found the augmentation process to be somewhat inpractical with the potentiallity of injury or death. Cutting their losses, the researchers sold Miko to a shadey company to gain some profit from the failed project. Miko found himself being forced to enact henious crimes and dirty jobs to earn his keep within the company, leading a checkered past and a grim trail in his footstepts. Eventually the Company he worked for was assimilated by larger Corporations and had found himself working aboard stations owned by the likes of Nanotrasen. Due to the lack of exposure to his own people until his twenties, he seems somewhat detached from his culture compared to most Tajaran but appears to have strong beliefs in the conflict between S'Randarr and Messa. Due to his exposure to the darker paths of life, he may seem to have more leaning towards that of Messa due to him closer to death more so than anything deemed as mercy. It's probably an awful background but I thought I'd go for something different/not so different? What do you like about this character? I like to think of him as a person trying to correct his past but isn't exactly a saint. I would like to think he's trying to become his own person, opposed to something constructed in a grotty lab in the outer colonies. How would you rate your role-playing ability? A solid.... eight, and a smidge. Notes: Sorry if it is Snowflakey. Will answer questions about the character also.
