GlamourChariot

Hi. I don't know you.

Like I said, it asked for a two paragraph version so that's what I gave >> Full version here for if you're interested! Unless you do mean the full version, in which case I'd be happy to listen to ideas or criticisms. Thanks for the + :v

That's the short, 2 paragraph version, as indicated to be necessary. Can read the full one here, if you so desire. Thanks for the response! :v

Is no-one going to ask about this? Some things are better left unquestioned.

Yeah. It was mostly to help her self learned abilities to deal with people in a way that leaves them open to being used for anything she needs them for. As for the psychology thing, the records are only a year long because it was meant to be a bachelors, like you mentioned. I don't actively play her as a psychologist, and she is in no way qualified as a professional. Maybe eventually though, eh? Quick Edit: Also just wanted to thank you for liking it! This is the first character profile / character I've created, so I'm kinda iffy about whether I've done everything right or not. Good to know someone likes her ^^

I'm not even sure who you are and I don't know how you know who I am but thank you ;;

BYOND key: GlamourChariot Character names: Alysa Mills How long have you been playing on Aurora?: Almost a week Why do you wish to be on the whitelist?: Due to the lack of heads and even more sparse competent heads, the station often lacks proper leadership and support. As someone who has (apparently) a very capable grasp of RP, I would like to assist with this issue. Why did you come to Aurora?: I was in a search for a server that could quench my thirst for RP. The simplest explanation is that the admins are active and helpful, the RP quality is better and more suited to my personal tastes, and in general the atmosphere is one that I can both appreciate and respect. Have you read the BS12 wiki on the head roles you plan on playing?: I've read nearly the entire wiki, so yes. Please provide well articulated and argumented answers to the following questions in a paragraph each. Give a definition of what you think roleplay is, and should be about: Roleplay is the assuming of the role of a character in a story. The story is woven by several people representing a plethora of characters, who's interactions form interesting scenarios outside of the stringent lines of a standard story. Being reactive rather than preplanned, the characters interact in a less scripted and more reactive manner, causing some of the most entertaining and fulfilling interactive storytelling available. In short, Roleplay provides a way for a handful of people to represent the characters within a story, allowing it to unfold in a natural and usually entertaining way. What do you think the OOC purpose of a Head of Staff is, ingame?: The OOC purpose of the heads is, in Layman's Terms, provide a guiding hand in the sometimes chaotic world of the station. A lot of the crew runs around like headless chickens the very moment things go to shit, and they don't always know how to react or what to prioritize. The head of staff is the calm puppeteer, guiding those within their division to do whatever needs to be done and acting as a figure of leadership when they need it most. What do you think the OOC responsibilities of Whitelisted players are to other players, and how would you strive to uphold them?: I believe those within the whitelist should be an example of how you should strive to be within the server. They should display capable and confident roleplay, with the utmost respect towards their peers and the admins. Whitelisted players should be leaders, matching their ability to be head roles with capability to assist others and consistently prove themselves as a good example for the server. Please pick one of your characters for this section, and provide well articulated responses to the following questions. Character name: Alysa Mills Character age: 28 Please provide a short biography of this character (approx 2 paragraphs): Alysa was a rich child that severely underachieved the standards set by her parents. Developing depression and ASPD, she turned to ways of existential nihilism and a solid hatred of humanity. Deciding that the only way she could find a reason to continue living was through pursuit of achievement, she set her sights on NanoTrason as a potential method of reaching higher places. She moved away from her demanding parents, taking a fair chunk of their wealth with her. After completing her studies she was picked up by NanoTrasen as a station engineer aboard an old, small station called the NSS Magis. Following the creation of the NSS Aurora, the station was deemed expendable and used to test a potentially catastrophic experimental Supermatter engine. The engine exploded, as expected, causing Alysa to be moved to the NSS Aurora for further work for NanoTrasen. What do you like about this character?: She's snarky, manipulative and (hopefully) entertaining to be around. She uses extremely casual language and liberally swears, despite being extremely intelligent and capable of articulate speech. Overall she's a fun character to play and be around, given that she tries to form relationships to further her own goals while pursuing further knowledge to purge the ignorance she despises so greatly. What do you dislike about this character?: The fact that she hates people and only pretends to get close to them is something that, in the long run, means she'll have a LOT of trouble forming any kind of meaningful relationship. I'd enjoy someone getting close enough to her for her to open up, but it's incredibly unlikely and as a personal favourite of mine this is pretty saddening. Do you think this character is fit to be a Head of Staff? (Please note that Head characters must be over 30, unless given special clearance): Yes and no. Why?: Given that she is 2 years too young, no. She is, however, well educated, very capable of all areas of engineering (assuming the head position to be Chief Engineer), and extremely logical in even the most dire of situations. Given that CE is one of the lower stress head positions, I feel she'd be well adjusted to become one. Especially given the current (rather low) standard of CE staff. Her psychology degree also allows her good management of people, being easily able to figure out how they tick. Please provide well articulated and argumented answers to the following questions. How would you rate your own roleplaying?: I'm a major advocate for chair RP, able to get carried away with description and character development. However, I believe it's more a question of CAN you RP. You either can RP, or you can't. It's personal preference whether your particular style of RP is "good" or not, when the answer is that you can RP. I can RP, but I'd rather rely on testimonials of those who have witnessed it than try to self promote. Extra notes: Just throwin' this out there for the people that seem to think I'd be alright.

Jumping aboard the bandwagon of attempted character improvement with my one and only character, Alysa Mills. Please, only serious criticisms and discussion. I'd like to get in early and see what people think of my character before / if they become well known on the station. I'm new around Aurora, and so is my character. I have hopes that I can settle in and become a known regular, contributing to the server as much as I am capable and maybe even being respected some time. So, hi there! Flavour Text: Medical / Employment Records: Backstory: Extra Info: Thanks for any and all replies!

Floor length atomic hair. Not gonna -1, but I can't give out a +1 to having a head of staff that has floor length cyan hair. It's unprofessional, and kind of just seems like an attempt to stand out. As an RPer, totally capable. Has plenty of experience and could probably head as RD fine. As for the specific character, nah. (it aint teal, it's cyan)

ACEField 4 Eh, BF3 was better. It's a sad moment when the best maps in your game are DLC of recycled maps from the prior game.

Apologies for the lack of constructiveness in this comment, but if nothing else you've successfully made me feel absolutely fucking ashamed of the depth of the records of my characters. Hopefully you take it as a compliment.

I am Groot 8^)
