I diagree with elevating the XO, im afraid. I would have rather gone with your original suggestion to rename the XO. With the way our server's political dynamics are based on species and origin, this would be a recipe for disaster. Command arguments/disagreements are not infrequent, and giving one authority over the other disrupts the current problem solving mechanics already in place. Command, excluding the captain, should remain on equal footing.

Literally fucked up. I van confirm King of the Ping and Ramke are furry CCP agents.

Lancer is perhaps the most toxic staff member I know. Thank you for being brave enough to say something sycmos. I once tried to tell him that everyone else wanted me to be the new lead and he should retire. But instead he posted this at me. He should be banned.

You can see your warnings in game and also on the web interface. Under administrative notes and warning verb in ooc I believe. Never been banned so I do not know if those show up there as well.

A consistent character that is well rp'd. The coat looks nice and it would be cool to see it added. Everything else I'd add has already been said. +1

Everything I would already add has been added above. From what I have observed you have managed a cool, calm, and collected pattern since your return and I see no issue with you getting your command WL. +1

Good.

1) Asoesse's experience with Hephaestus originally had been somewhat mixed as this opportunity, much like the second question, was a voluntold position for him. Originally he held a somewhat reserved opinion on the Megacorporate Guild on the sheer principle of how quickly they had outpaced any other on Moghes, however, like most Unathi he found their approach appealing both aesthetic wise and in business model. This opinion has swung hard, in recent days however. As famine has set in on Moghes and the other Megacorporate presences having turned their backs on Moghes in his perspective, Asoesse has now adopted the stance of Hephaestus truly being the only honest Megacorporation. His loyalty had been won in thst aspect as the Guild and the Hegemon worked to resolve the new crippled market on Moghes. 2) Simply put, bitter. Put between duty to his family and Clan, Asoesse's Clan Leader had effectively gotten rid of him for the now once again for a source of credits with little regard to his or his family's wants. Viewing the move as a greedy move for influence and credit, Asoesse was left with little say in the matter. But these are opinions he has not, and would not share. Understanding his role in this world, he put his expectations first and obeys. But, as with most things, the second reality is his clan leader remains his only real access to communication with his family, and so upsetting his clan leader would not be wise for this along with many other reasons. He intends to keep contact through written missives, when he can, as his family remains poorer with no access to the extranet, holoscreens, or other such amenities. In the time between, Asoesse will trust the rest to the will of Sk'akh and his ancestors, striving to make them proud abroad the stars.

Species you are applying to play: Unathi What color do you plan on making your first alien character: Green 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 have played several of the Aurora's xenospecies for years now, and have watched Unathi progress significantly over the years. Applying for Unathi is something I have expressed interest in for years now, but if I am honest, these applications always create a fair amount of anxiety for me for no good reason. Unathi are an interesting species for a variety of reasons to me, from being a recently uplifted xenospecies over the last 60 years or so, with the recent rework as they have tried to find their way in human space. There's a variety of narratives that could drive a multitude of interesting characters for both myself and the server. Identify what makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a Human: From radically different biology, to completely different social patterns, Unathi can be played quite alien. For starters, they're a cold blooded species standing at an average of 6-7 feet tall cold blooded, scale riddled, carnivorous monsters. But these are only surface details in what makes them far different.Honour bound in some cases, clan adherent in others, Unathi come from a diverse amount of settings in cultures that contrast against standard human settings. From wasteland survivors and raiders, Izweski citizens dueling out grievances, to far reaching pirates preparing to ram their vessel into another, Unathi have a fairly robust setting as far as lore is concerned highlighting their many different mannerisms that contrast with Humanity in our setting. Cultural behaviours such as pointing being incredibly offensive, expectations of behaviour and respect such as looking at your superiors when speaking with them to their intense gazes drawn by interest, usage of last names over their given names with those who are not exceptionally close, gendered expectations on behaviour, and much more only scratch the surface of the Unathi species' differences. Character Name: Asoesse Onossa'i Please provide a short backstory for this character: Born in the beginning of the kasavakh in 2437 within the walls of To'ha'dat in the Untouched lands, Aoesse was a hatchling when the fighting began that would reshape the fate of Moghes for the rest of history. As war broke out between the Izweski and traditionalists, his father was one of the many peasants levied by their lords to fight for their Hegemon. Skies soon darkened, and some of Aoesse's first memories were of plumes in the distance, looming over far distance as dark and terrible mushrooms. Years moved on, however, and life endured, Aoesse found himself raised in the teachings of Sk'akh as yet another peasant family in the industrialized city within them employ of the trade guilds as humble industrial workers, Aoesse upbringing was hard but honest. With Moghes' destabilization and economic troubles that followed, the young Unathi found himself often helping where his hands could when not in Izweski education system. Over the next fifteen years, Aoesse would grow, watching the turmoil of Moghes turn into desperation as it's surfaces became glass and then desert, as he and the many other children grew in the streets learning what futures were in store and idolizing the levied warriors in the years that followed after even after the Contact War came to it's end and his father returned a far different Sinta from when he left. Raised, educated in formal schools, Aoesse was signed by his clean leader to begin an apprenticeship with the renowned Hephaestus Industries during one of many simple recruitment drives by the megacorporation as it's influence expanded upon Moghes. Sent to the stars, he began his training with Moghean ship wrights as he learned to care for, repair, and work on the Izweski fleets. Learning as an apprentice for several years, Aoesse was arranged to wed by his clan leader in 2458, to La’ssakea from a neighboring clan. Three hatchlings later, Aoesse found himself with a blossoming family as he began to near the end of his apprenticeship. Content in his works, he watched his world find unrest once more with the waking of his Hegemon, and his faith challenged as the events of the Third Cept were brought into light in the start of 2462. With the Hegemon slain and the feeble yet cunning Not'zar's brief civil war, Aoesse was among the many who watched in horror as High Priest Unzi was stripped of titles and cast out into the wastelands. This, however, was not Aoesse's place to worry about such thing and thus whatever outraged opinions he may have held were kept to himself and his home, in deference to his clan as he continued his works through the next year. Worse, in his mind, were the radical Si'akh heretics who had cropped up, spouting their rhetoric before being dragged off by the city guard. Or the anarchists who mutilated their bodies with metal and forbidden teachings earning the scorn of their ancestors as they shamed themselves. Completing his engineering apprenticeship, the following year, Aoesse continued his work with the honourable Hephaestus guild as a fully-fledged engineer. Instilling in his children the wisdom of Sk'akh teachings even following the recent troubles and scandal, he ensured his family had regular communion with the district's priest, hoping that instilling proper values within his own offspring would help fight the growing corruption and erosion of Sinta values. (edited) This was of course until the great recessions of the following year and food shortages that came shortly after as Moghes found itself in financial turmoil. During this time, Aoesse learned of the transfer to a new ship called the Horizon and mentioned this in passing to his clan leader. Viewing this as a wonderful opportunity to earn prestige amongst their smaller name and one less mouth to feed in their already overcrowded apartments, Aoesse was instructed to take this voluntary opportunity to bring reputation to his clan. Obedient to his leader, as any proper Sinta should be, Aoesse begrudgingly applied to this opportunity. Leaving his wife and family behind after the observation of the Final Judgement festival, Aoesse took to the stars one last time on a Hephaestus Transport and left his sand-laden world behind with a new journey on the horizon. What do you like about this character? I like this character for many reasons. Primarily, he is a faithful Sinta dedicated to both clan and religion with a level head, not quick to anger. He's a good starter character as I learn to immerse myself in a new species' lore and work on the finer details of playing a Unathi. Incorporating aspects of cultural background and megacorporate influence, he will have his work cut out for him as he adapts to a far more human world, and will hopefully find his personal Sk'akh beliefs tested as well as deal with the reality of Xeno influence on his world and the terrible repercussions it had. How would you rate your role-playing ability? I have long since stopped trying to numerically rate my RP, instead, I believe I have adequately showcased my knowledge of the lore in several whitelists already. Granted, every character is a learning journey and not all of my characters have been as successful as others, but I have tried to learn from these, and learning is the mark of good roleplaying ability.

The following debrief is available for all direct SCC Horizon employees, and horizon employees only. Merchants, consulars, independent journalists, and other external do not have access to this internal topic. Any questions may be directed to me via Forum DM or Discord.

I have enjoyed many rounds with borgs. I have enjoyed many rp with borgs that frankly have more depth than player characters. I do not think removing them is a good take. If they are stepping on your job, tell them to reassign. If that makes you uncomfortable how is that any different then your shared counterpart role? What do you do when there is a second medic? A second surgeon. Cooperate and learn to work together. Give them tasks, make them a subordinate. Odds are the player would love the interaction. If that's against your character origin and you are uncomfortable telling the brog to fuck off? Consider an easier background that doesn't present this challenge.

General Notice to the SCCV Horizion FROM: Giovanni Di Cristoforo, SCCIAA, NTCC Odin SUBJECT: Conclusion of Investigation -------------------- BODY: The investigation of this incident has concluded, and appropriate action has been taken for affected individuals. This matter will now be considered resolved and internal release of information will follow within the next few days. -------------------- DTG: 10-01:00-TAU CETI STANDARD-10-2464 SIGN: Giovanni Di Cristoforo.

Not everything needs to be fixed. Life threatening injuries can be covered by both roles. The rest may just require you to roleplay being injured.

Would not be a fan of security getting more GPS' for the same reason sensors got bonked. "Hey Jim I haven't seen your GPS move for five minutes are you OK?" On a whole though I'm not really sure this is necessary. Yes it's harder but for away missions and so forth people should be encouraged to work and stay together versus John Rambo'ing through a random derelict.

Very much this. Removal of surgeon is only going to worsen the superdoctor take tenfold. Medical always has been plagued with heal mains who overstep and always will, these hard limitations help cull some of that. I don't see this be a positive change, to be honest, rather something that will only make it harder to play in medical when there is more than 2 doctors on. Especially when trying to introduce a new character.

There are 5 instances in which someone may be marooned. In all of these situations, cyborgification is also allowed. In all of these instances an antag has escalated where being killed in combat is also allowed save for corporate espionage. I don't really believe it needs much changing as it is in line with the other round ending punishments. As the majority of the command playerbase takes a fairly weak stance towards cyborgification, which arguably should happen more, this is a fine alternative. Remember: Executions are not allowed by regulations. Station security nor command should be doing any executions. The maximum possible penalty for major infractions is marooning or cyborgification. This essentially is a reminder that these are maximum punishments when there is absolutely no question of what has occured. This is for the mercenary who went guns blazing killing multiple people. This is for the vampire or ling who ate the captain. The command team has a very final decision in this. But it, as stated earlier, should be reserved for the very final stages of escalation as you are ending a player's round.

It is a slippery slope the moment the set uniform is abandoned. People's interpretation of what's appropriate and what is not is often lacking. Especially considering the majority of our player base hasn't held a true corporate job. The better option is as many have said, make the uniforms more appealing.

Reporting Personnel: Kasimir Rudzutaks Job Title of Reporting Personnel: Birdge Crew Game ID: chZ-dgGw Personnel Involved: -Zuleika-Varushka Xrimqil-loix, Executive Officer, Offender -Naalp Riqaij'aal, Captain, Offender and Victim -Amara Nasr, Bridge Crew, Victim -Hellebore, Bridge Crew, Victim Secondary Witnesses: Real Time: 1745 CST 5/18 Location of Incident: Bridge, Bridge Hall, Bridge Conference Nature of Incident: [ ] - Workplace Hazard [x] - Accident/Injury [ ] - Destruction of Property [ ] - Neglect of Duty [x] - Harassment [x] - Assault [x] - Misconduct [ ] - Other _____ (Place an x in the box that applies. If other, replace line and specify.) Overview of the Incident: A help request was heard by this one from bridge crewman Nasr over the radio. As this one was within close proximity, and the station was suffering from severe power loss due to unrelated security issues, this one responded to find her being attacked by a gremoiran in the bridge hall. The XO, Xrimqil-loix was in the next room as well, near the entrance to the bridge where the shutters had dropped. However as Miss Nasr escaped into the conference room, the beast shifted it's attention to the XO. As this one was preparing to line up a shot, the XO ran into the bridge conference with the beast close behind. Running past Miss Nasr, they proceeded to turn and shove miss Nasr to the ground who was already in a very wounded state and sacrifice her to the vile bug. Thankfully, this one had his blaster readied now and shot it. This in itself was disturbing, and the incident was reported to the Captain. However, after the report, no action was deemed necessary by the Captain as he stated this would have been acceptable for any crew member. This one had come to voice his grievance about working with someone who would more than readily sacrifice their fellow crewman to certain death along with Hellborne. At this point the XO proceeded to draw their sidearm on us and growl like some feral beast. This one attempted to give the XO a moment to clarify their thinking and ask them if they were going to charge their weapon, to which the XO stated they were not. This one asked the captain to intervene, as the XO proceeded to throw racist slurs. Eventually the XO put their first gun down, then at the order of the Captain and then drew a .45 from their bag instead. At this point they were finally ejected from the bridge. This one understands they had arrived from a significant security event about 20 minutes prior or so. But this does not negate or excuse this behaviour in the workplace. He also cannot understand the Captain's reasoning in excusing sacrificing other crew members in some 'survival of the fittest' rationale. Submitted Evidence: Have the interactions with the Captain after we went to file a formal complaint on recording. Would you like to be personally interviewed?: [x] - Yes (only if needed) [ ] - No Did you report it to a Head of Staff or a superior? If so, who? If not, why?: Captain Riqaij'aal. Actions taken: No action taken initially for unknown reasons. XO finally ejected from the brig after brandishing and menacing with two sidearms.

As I echoed in the discord thread. I 100% appreciate the time and effort put into this, however, the original NBT sprites (save for the PMCG sprites) were much better. The more vibrant originals were on a whole more appeasing to the eye. The black boot was fine as it was. I'm not sure I'd call boots fetish material.if it's difficult to maintain the alternates that's one thing but let's leave it at that. My personal preference would be to see the old sprites restored.

You know, I have, for ages now called Danse out on being a scalie. And this is okay, because scalies are really just furries. Like everyone who posted above here. That is why, after looking through this questionable story, after much debate, I will tentatively give this a +1. However, that said, I do have a few questions. 1) How will opening up about your furry status impact your long standing with the scalie community? 2) Do you intend to die your first character's hair the same neon green as your new (And wonderful) pfp?

Having watched this since ethe beginning, I'm glad you FINALLY decided to apply for it. The idea is fun and harmless, but more importantly it helps bring a bit more of your char into the game! +1
