How long have you been playing on Aurora?: Maybe three to four months? I haven't kept track really. Why do you wish to be on the whitelist?: I wish to be on the whitelist to further my enjoyment of Aurora, I love this game and the server, but I feel like there is more to it that I'm missing out on, I.E a Head of Staff position. Why did you come to Aurora?: Honestly, it was an accident. I meant to join paradise, then I stayed for a shift and just fell in love with it. Have you read the Aurora wiki on the head roles and qualifications you plan on playing?: Yes. Please provide well articulated answers to the following questions in a paragraph each. Give a definition of what you think roleplay is, and should be about: To me, role-play allows you to be something that you aren't, without any consequences. You can go in depth with a background story, or make a very vague one and build on of it from then on. I think roleplay should be about having fun, It should be something you can enjoy even when you're having a bad day. An escape, if you will. What do you think the OOC purpose of a Head of Staff is, ingame?: A head of staff is meant to lead, they are leaders of their departments, or in the captains case. Leaders of the whole station, the crew looks to them for answers. They are meant to provide the crew with a direction, whether its a correct or incorrect direction is determined by the players themselves. They need to mentor their new department members, as well as delegate responsibility to other more experienced department members so they can succeed and eventually reach the same level as the Head of Staff.[ What do you think the OOC responsibilities of Whitelisted players are to other players, and how would you strive to uphold them?: The responsibilities of a Whitelisted player is to set an example of the player that the unwhitelisted players should be. The way they need to act in order to get to the same level as the whitelisted player. The whitelisted player is responsible in teaching others as well, if you are a head of staff you need to teach the new members of your department. Please pick one of your characters for this section, and provide well articulated responses to the following questions. Character name: Olivia Catherina Character age: 36 Please provide a short biography of this character (approx 2 paragraphs): Olivia was born into a middle class family on earth that lived in the North American Federation in the megacity of Los Angeles. She was born with no siblings, she was treated well up until she was about six years old. Her parents ended up divorcing because her father cheated on her mother. The divorce took a toll on her mother. Olivia and her mother became homeless because her mother lacked any education passed the eleventh grade of highschool. They lived in a car for sometime until her mother could find some way to make money to support Olivia. The mother eventually turned to drugs because of a deep depression that developed. She spent every penny she had on drugs each time she made money. This eventually led to an accidental overdose, killing her while Olivia watched. Child services then delegated custody of Olivia to her father Robert Catherina. Her father had become very abusive since the time she had last seen him due to his own depression feeling as if the divorce was his fault, which led to alcoholism and drug abuse. , he beat her every day, sometimes more than once. Her new mother wasn't any better, her name was Katie Catherina. She was just as abusive, not because of alcohol or drugs, but just because she came from a different mother. She blamed Olivia for the alcoholism her father faced as well as the drug abuse. Olivia became very depressed from all of this, blaming herself for the divorce, for her fathers alcohol and drug abuse, and for Katie's hate towards her. At the age of twelve she swore to herself that she would never do drugs, and kept to it. Her father and step mothers abuse only became more frequent, and more painful as time progressed. They began to verbally abuse her as well. The verbal and physical abuse led to Olivia attempting suicide at the age of fourteen, she was beat senseless for trying and locked away in a hospital for roughly ten to twelve days. All of these events, all of the abuse eventually led to Olivia running away at the age of seventeen and meeting a man named Jonathan Aleman, who she eventually married around the age of eighteen. Jonathan turned out to be just like her father. When she turned the age of twenty four, she decided to look for a job so she could eventually leave Jonathan and support her two kids that she had since she and Johnathan had met. She met with a NanoTrasen representative who eventually talked her into becoming a security team member for the NSS Redemption. She accepted and was sent to the security academy, eventually passing it and becoming a cadet on the Redemption. After about a year and a few speed bumps she finally made Security Officer and was transferred to the NSS Aurora where she became Warden, although she'd go on shift as a officer at times to blow off steam. While she was in the academy and on the Redemption, a divorce was filed by her husband, she lost custody of the kids in the divorce and majority of everything she owned. To this day she is still fighting for custody. What do you like about this character?: I like her attitude, I like that she doesn't stop when she is needed. She is persistent, and diligent, she doesn't give up easily and cares about everyone's well being over her own. She continues to press on, even when the odds are against her. She's friendly and caring, but can be vicious if it's required. What do you dislike about this character?: I think my biggest issue is how she handles herself in the field, she prefers to work alone instead of working with other officers. And when she is working with someone else she feels bad or responsible if something happens to the person she's working with. She's too hard on herself, and she's not always the smartest. But she's improving on a lot of this. What do you think makes this character fit to be a head of staff?: I think her dedication to the crew and it's safety would be the main reason. Again, she doesn't give up, she's kind and caring when she needs to be but can be vicious if the time calls for it. She doesn't give up easily, she prefers to do things by the book, but can improvise it need be. And she isn't biased towards anyone. She treats everyone fair, including the criminals in her custody. Please provide well articulated answers to the following questions. How would you rate your own roleplaying?: on a scale of 1 - 10, maybe a 7.6? or an 8. I have things I can improve on for sure, there are a lot of issues with my characters, like Syndey Grace was my first main character I had ever played on, and she was retarded until I started to learn, and adapt to aurora. Olivia has her moments of idiocy, as we all do. Mostly because sometimes I get lost in the confusion of what's going on around station. Extra notes:
