BYOND Key: AlexanderL Character Names: Alexander Lioness (Engineer) Azura Fenrir (Psychologist) Jason Hunt (Security cadet *Soon to be Officer*) Serenity Hunt (Detective) Supernova Through Stars (Engineer/Botanist) Species you are applying to play: Vaurca Warrior What color do you plan on making your first alien character (Dionaea & IPCs exempt): Red Have you read our lore section's page on this species?: Yes, i have looked through it and will continue to refer to it when required. 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've always had an interest in Insect like races in Scifi, from the least insect like being the Wraith from Stargate to the most being the 'Buggers' from Enders Game (Haven't seen more insect like and minded then them) and i enjoy creating my own scifi races in my spare time, a lot of them becoming insect like with and without hive minds. I would also like the chance to play as this race specifically for the Security roll because i have been learning how to play security and i would like to try it as a non-human for a different view point. Identify what makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a Human: For a start the Vaurca would open up a different state of mind for interacting with criminals and threats to the station, they are also one of the...probably most discriminated against races and having one as a member of the security staff would be interesting to see "Why are you letting this Vaurca arrest me!? Get someone else to do it!". I thin playing the Vaurca would be a challenge due to them not being able to recover from brute damage, and if they get flashed they go blind so a security officer would have to be both careful and very offensive when apprehending suspects. Character Name: Za'Akaix'Zezez Zo'ra Please provide a short backstory for this character, approximately 2 paragraphs Zezez has been been security for the Za'ra hive for much time now and, following their agreed directive as a Warrior to protect the hive they are loyal too, begrudgingly moved between active hives (Notably New Gibson, the Hive Ship sitting in Tau Ceti). Eventually the hive was contacted by Nanotrasen to order a new shipment of Vaurca to assist in the construction and maintenance of the stations and with them Zezez was sent to oversee several Bound. Now that he was out of the hives he would see a chance to have a little freedom from the hive to stretch his legs and pursue some of their own goals, one is to become a Security Officer with the humans rather then a cadet. Now Zezez has been drafted into the Aurora station's Security staff as a Cadet, granted they tended to be shunned and spoken down to when they were assigned to an officer. They have been noted to be rather forceful towards Criminals who don't comply and they has been told not to be so aggressive as this does not work on a station where there are more species then the Vaurca. Overall Zezez has the potential to be a good security member but can be annoying to deal with, loosing his its temper when they are talked down to, too often, but at the end of the day they get the job done and they haven't had a serious incident with unnecessary violence to date. What do you like about this character? I like the idea of making a Vaurca that's fed up with being trodden on and beaten down, yet they know they need to work to keep alive so they do it...Barely within the line of the law and sometimes outside of it when they loose their temper. Fun times! Hard play! How would you rate your role-playing ability? I've been role playing for 11 years now. I'd say its pretty good. Notes: Let me know what you think, if i need to add more or amend anything.

BYOND Key: AlexanderL Character Names: Alexander Lioness (Station Technician). Azura Fenrir(Psychologist). Jason Hunter (Security Cadet). Species you are applying to play: Dionae What color do you plan on making your first alien character (Dionaea & IPCs exempt): N/A Have you read our lore section's page on this species?: Yes i have, and i also play a Dionaea on the Apollo-gaming Server. 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 wish to play as a Dionaea because of how unique they are in how they should behave but the way they function. Sure they are much stronger and more resistant to damage overall (I've had my other Dionaea's head almost cut off and just stood up and walked around as if nothing had happened) but these things aren't important to them, they are here to assist the crew and and many are friendly to everyone unless forced to fight, when they finally physically react to the threat. Identify what makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a Human: Humans are an emotionally driven race with their own goals and temptations that some of the other races understand less, and others understand more. Dionaea however do not have this same drive, though many of them possess traits that simulate this, they are driven by their curiosity, intelligence and sometimes their drive to grow into a larger Gestalt in order to expand their species. Dionaea don't seem to function completely as a hive, they definitely don't function as a government but they do seem to integrate well into the latter of the two due to their success with interacting and working along side other species. Character Name: Supernova Through Stars Please provide a short backstory for this character, approximately 2 paragraphs We are a Gestalt of the Epsilon Ursae Minor shell who has taken the name of Supernova Through Stars after experiencing a unique supermatter explosion of a ship when it detonated too close to a sun. We have come to the station with knowledge related Engineering and station maintenance. We can recount the vast intricacies of the stars and of their collapse through our shared knowledge and in doing so expand our own unique knowledge to spread to future Nymphs and Gestalt who will also seek similar goals to ourselves and we shall continue to give knowledge to others. In summery this Dionae has expressed nothing but an eager spirit, kindness towards other species (regardless of how they treat it) and a willingness to learn more about its specified field, even sharing its own knowledge to better others when possible and learning other highly specialised fields of work. As a safety precaution we have attempted to goad it into violence and Supernova has only ever reacted to the most extreme threats of grievous bodily harm which would take an immense amount of time and energy to recover from. Therefor we approve of 'Supernova Through Stars' to be considered for recruitment upon the station, though they must be checked on and frequently observed by trained professionals for any major changes in behaviour.... These things punch like a falling tree and i do not wish that on anyone... What do you like about this character? This is going to be a character i have played before and enjoy playing frequently because of how they work out. You're either going to love the giant stick or you're going to dislike them, either because of how slowly they react to sudden situations or because they have a difficult time understanding the emotions of others. Supernova is in no way unable to perceive social and emotional cues but it becomes a thing of beauty when it finally realises what someone else is going through and tries their hardest to help correct the problem if they can. Not only that but, even with their vast intellect they are still quite capable of mistakes and blunders which show that Intelligence isn't always a boon and can be quite the hindrance when it comes to the more simple tasks. Either love the stick or hate it, there is no in between. How would you rate your role-playing ability? I have been roleplaying since i was 11, which means its roughly 11/12 years i've been doing it for on various forums, IM sites and also in various games and sometimes in real life when the opportunity pops up (And i'm not talking the bedroom kind...Much). I will never break character for any reason, even if i do not agree with something that is happening to my character like being murdered for no apparent reason (Even if they aren't the antagonist), though i will speak frequently in OOC when its required (And not to complain about what happened. Its a thing thats' been done and there's no point in being childish about it before or after the fact). Notes: I'd be more then happy to receive any feedback or extra information by the Lore writer or anyone who has experience with this race. I really love this slow race and i'm happy to learn all i can.
