Wasn't sure if you meant who I'd play as or who I currently play as.
Current:
- Agony (Cyborg)

- DigiBot (pAi)
- Zedd Wiltenbur (Medical Intern)
- Navin Hallos (Assistant)
- Sphear Frorthion (Librarian/Assistant)

Proposed Name For the IPC Unit:
- I'm slightly undecided and probably would have 2-3 different ones. As i want to continue the Digi-Brand name, but I also want Zedd to own an IPC and retire. (The IPC would likely take his place in the medical department of the Aurora), in which I'd name the unit after him.
Species you are applying to play: IPC
What color do you plan on making your first alien character: Likely a neutral color (Black, Grey, White)
Have you read our lore section's page on this species?: Yes
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 would like to play as an IPC for its unique take on cybertronic theory and application. As I am use to playing as a cyborg, the physiological machine aspect and the logical reasoning is something I'd like to experience, and play with due to how it differs from a cyborg and a human. The IPC's self care is also vastly different then a human, and one I feel I would better play with compared to Skrell, Unathi, or Tajara.
Identify what makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a Human:
What makes playing an IPC different then playing as a human is pretty lengthy. IPC's reasoning and decisions effect their social status and social appearance. This in turn develops into a perceived personality for the unit. While the unit may not have or produce such a personality, due to human understanding, it tends to blur the lines of what others around them learn from the unit's actions. IPC units do not need or crave social attention or relationships, this creates new routes of play, since you may not need the kitchen, or the bar to socialize in. This leaves the unit able to focus on directives and self care, while also allowing the unit to learn and expand it's memory. As a non-human, IPCs lack the need for food and hydration, blood, standard medical care, and oxygen. This is one of the biggest factors in my opinion on how they differ from playing a human, they do not need as much attention to them self as a human would, and this allows the unit to not only continue on, and also removes the option of relying on those applications, and forces new options to be used in relevant situations.
Character Name: ( Zed, Digital Unit: Zed, DigiMed)?? I don't have a solid name at the moment honestly.
Please provide a short backstory for this character:
This Unit uses a positronic brain from the Digital Electronics AI line, the chassis is of the Baseline type(Bishop or Zeng-Hu). Ordered to provide aid for Zedd Wiltenbur after an accident impaired him both physically and mentally. Nanotrasen Paid for suitable prosthetics, and further provided the IPC to aid with home health care and home income. The unit is currently property of Nanotrasen, completely paid off, it is being leased to own to Wiltenbur under contract the unit works at a Nanotrasen facility. This unit is prepared for medical care, cleaning, cooking, emergency services, and made to work diligently to upkeep it's home and owner's needs. The story for this unit will take place soon after being contracted to work at a Nanotrasen facility, contracted to replace Wiltenbur as a Medical Intern. The unit will proceed to work to pay for the home needs and slowly pay itself off to be completely owned by Zedd Wiltenbur.
What do you like about this character?:
What I like about this character is that it has a few goals in play, the care of Zedd Wiltenbur, paying for Zedd's living and medical expenses, as well as being owned and contracted to Nanotrasen, while also paying itself off to become owned by Zedd. I like how the lore of two of my characters will weave together into a new path. Digital Electronics products are being used more and more by various Nanotrasen crew and services and Nanotrasen has taken a notice. By delving into the company Nanotrasen is likely to make a move on it in some compacity. For the time being Digital Electronics is enjoying the incoming, Zedd is getting therapy, and Nanotrasen is preparing a financial move. Thus begins this units journey, serving a crippled ex-employee of the Aurora, who is likely to die before it owns the unit. How will this unit change through time? That is story waiting to happen!
How would you rate your role-playing ability?: Beginner to Moderate
