Fire and Glory

Here to fuck about in another species hmm? I am wondering what job she's in or if she is even employed, is this some sort of reservation for the merchant job?

Unless you are a catman IRL I suggest modifying the title name with your BYOND/ckey instead of your character's name as well as putting it in the actual thread. inb4 the name is the ckey It also seems that your cat is 16, while apparently this is the age of maturity, in-game the minimum age is 17, suggest altering it. Aurora station is in Tau Ceti, not Sol, so you'd typically learn Tau Ceti Basic instead of Sol Common, just making sure you know. This is a drive-by looky loo rather than any sort of detailed scrutiny so don't take it as such pls.

I am a bit leery of portable reloads as a whole, especially considering laser rifles get something like 20 shots and are pretty damn dangerous. But if it is not possible to speed-reload like it's near on par with a damn magazine, then I am somewhat less leery.

The rule is merely that the Tajaran has to be born on Adhomai, raised by Tajara, no? Although I am sure loresmen might get salty if they were completely isolated from the war too, so that's good. Traditionally it is spelt "NKA". There are a few, minor things I have problems with (and they're mostly things I cannot speak authoritatively about) but I feel the backstory is a fair sight easier to take in now. I am dubious on whether Nanotrasen would send explorers trudging around Adhomai. Given that the community had already done negotiations with the rest of Adhomai, surely there'd be one or two negotiators who could speak Siik'mass when talking with the outside world? Being sent to Nanotrasen headquarters seems a fair bit like special treatment, especially when you consider that said headquarters is somewhere in the Sol Alliance which is fairly unfriendly to aliens. I'd consider it far more likely that he ended up on the NTCC Odin which is the primary hub station for Nanotrasen's operations in Tau Ceti which better inclined towards aliens. For the most part I am now content to leave this for when the loreguy arrives at any rate.

Coughs. There are a fair few problems here. or just one big problem, in hindsight. Firstly, it is not possible for the Tajara to have colonized another planet and then forget about it, small or not. It is even more impossible for them to do so while having no idea of humanity's existence and their technology. Before first-contact, Tajara did not have the faintest hint of space-flight technology, after first-contact, their disruptive uplifting gave them everything they'd need for any hypothetical colonists to not regress into primitives with no clue of galactic events. Even ignoring that, a second planet colonized by Tajara would be such a change in the lore as to require more than a whitelist app to canonize it. Although..... It seems like most things here are more or less compatible with a normal, Adhomaian born kitty. In closing, it seems like the person himself could be transplanted to our own lore without many pains (either as some forgotten community I am sketchy about or as a normal community that lives a good distance away from the technology centers of the planet, which is perfectly plausible), but the form it takes right now just seems to conveniently sidestep most of everything relevant by Tajara by coming from another planet with little to no connection to their origins. Finally, there is this which I thought should be waved in case you got some other ideas. https://forums.aurorastation.org/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=4730#p80034

i made one of these threads first stop edging in on my business

By default Zhilin does not particularly give a damn about what the rest of cargo is doing unless they're poking their noses into mining. He wouldn't throw materials into space, he is literally employed to get those materials, so even if he wanted to cause some sort of effect by doing that he'd be inviting trouble on himself and he knows that.

Oh you actually changed the name, that's p decent. I had already pointed out the suspicious lack of any mention of her father along with the fact that there wasn't anything about the war in there, Skorvold has evidently made changes to fix that. Your answers to the questions are pretty good even though we all know you just want to play Tajara because they're furry, made evident by your furry avatar on discord. in fact you're probably going to discard this character to play your fursona after you get the whitelist The backstory seems fairly solid and the war itself does not really have a major focus in her life, I like that. She also has her own ambitions, has suffered consequences for her habits, has solid reasons for wanting a fresh start in a new world and is perfectly plausible to have existed in the Tajaran environment. I do not really see any problems with this application.

As far as I know, cake might have decided otherwise, advise asking him about the prices. [mention]sonicgotnuked[/mention] [mention]NebulaFlare[/mention]

I have a noble desire to make sure that items that are below a certain standard never set foot on our clean server. [mention]BRAINOS[/mention]

no you didnt this is just four worn-sprites with no item-state made and one of the worn sprites being used as a substitute the worn sprites are okay but it's still substituting smh tbh

Doubt that'll ever happen lol anyway I must beg that you ask around if anyone else can do the item-state/whatever, some sprites can look okay with the mob sprite but this'd probably look awful. Pls.

Let us review the various traits of the kitchen knife compared to other knives. It is a 'normal' size item, which means it only fits in backpacks or special storage slots like the chef's apron, in comparison, virtually every other knife can fit in your pocket. You can not put it in your boot. It is the only knife capable of butchering animals. (It is also the only mundane knife usable for scalpel surgery steps but I digress.) With all this put together, I feel it is clear that kitchen knives are supposed to be a large, moderately difficult to store knife specially made to cut through meat and the like. And yet the sprite is exactly the same as any puny knoife you cobble out of steel, which I think does not give it credit. TL;DR turn the kitchen knife's sprite into a bigger, more intimidating, different-looking knife pls. You could also just replace the thing with cleavers but I feel a few people might get outraged regarding the role a cleaver plays in butchery.

it's not really forgiveness if there's no one who remembers you to forgive you for whatever was done innit?

IIRC Lillith does indeed show up on dead hour, 12 a.m. UTC ends up having a lot more players compared to 6 p.m. or 1 a.m. It varies, if excessive force is "beating your head in even when you didn't do anything violent", it is ahelpable, if security is leaving you to stew in the brig for the rest of the round, it is also ahelpable. There's generally a line where you go from telling an IAA/nearest boss person to ahelping with this sort of thing.

Only half the time. I am sure if I ever ahelped about someone generating pizza all over cargo I would get told it is an IC issue because of some crap involving miners getting a lot of points and the dispenser not actually having a limit and thus it is all fine.

I'd be okay with any limitation really, if you want to stuff yourself you can always mass-order from cargo or just eat the liquidfood rations. Though if we want to stop miners from doing dumb-looking shit, it should probably be within 5-20 imo.

BYOND Key:Fire and Glory Character name:Zhilin Vadim Item name:tajaran religious necklace Order of questions moved for the sake of giving proper context Item function(s):Protects against the paranormal I would like to be able to both attach it to a jumpsuit and be able to wear it on the ear slot. As it does not make sense to have to have a jumpsuit to wear it but I would also like to avoid having the ear-slot sprite popping up over hardsuits and the like because it tends to look bad and does not make too much sense. Item description:A necklace with black string, it appears to have carved wooden figures of the Tajaran god Mata'ke and all of his pantheon strung through it. Item appearance:It's a loop of black string with some indistinct tajaran figures carved of wood at the bottom of the loop, 7 to be specific. I've done the worn sprite but someone else would have to do the icon state. https://www.dropbox.com/s/5vgb7kzwvvcljxo/woodnecklace.dmi?dl=0 Why is your character carrying said item to work?Zhilin and the crowd of folks he comes from are fairly big on the Ma'ta'ke religion and are generally convinced it's real to one degree or another. Zhilin was given the necklace at a young age by his mother so that he may be better protected from Raskara's forces of evil that bring about disaster. How will you use this to better interact with crew and/or stimulate RP?It is not really something Zhilin would talk about and I do not expect people to end up being inclined to ask about it, however it is something that Zhilin would fiddle with on occasion and is an accessory to his character. Additional comments:

This is all something you should be doing anyways, deadhour or not, I'm just pointing out that no one actually does it on deadhour, rather than saying something needs to be amended or such.

That does sound pretty interesting.

Are you talking about a slime in the shape of a pug?

Slimes are fine, some of my best friends are slimes. Any excuse that can be made for "the slime is fine it's friendly!" can fuck off though. Really don't want the RD to have his "totally safe" friendly slime 24/7 giving xenobio's another excuse to say they're fine to be paraded around. Anything but a slime tbh. I like the pug and don't really feel like there's a need to keep the demographic of pets diverse if people want another dog.

Pugs actually are in the game, they can spawn in cargo. Anyways, if the RD gets a domesticated slime, people are more likely to say that domesticated slimes are fine and you should piss off for not letting them drag it around, it's not really something I feel like seeing.

Kaed confirmed to have a hate-boner for pugs Tbh I'd rather there not be a RD slime, we do not need precedents for slime pets. A pug sounds cute.
