I'll admit that I did not think of TC and the Scarabs that much at the time of writing this, since I've heard that VT is already working on a rewrite for these two. That doesn't mean I have not though about it, though! I'd very much leave them the same--technology-loving transhumanist people living on their ships. They do, though, feel largely irrelevant at the moment--as such, I'd like to make their fleet bigger and make them THE navy of the Frontier Alliance. I'd also want to expand more on this bit-- I feel like this is good potential for writing news articles on the TC, perhaps describing how they steal or seize technologies--it could create a rather polarizing public picture of the Techno-Conglomerate, and the Frontier Alliance in association. There's more to do, of course-- but that's just one example of what could be done. Thank you! I feel like I have to work hard for this to compensate for my lack of experience.

Thank you! I can't say I have plans, unfortunately--however I am interested in seeing what I can do with them, as well. I very much enjoy working in a team so I would hope I could see about expanding their lore once I'm in the position by working with other people. I would write what Coalf has said on his app, really-- I agree with him wholeheartedly, and I think he has a better vision on Elyra than I do. So in the case I get accepted and he does not, I'd probably still go to him and consult with him on where to go with Elyra. That being said, I'd also like to make Elyra more than just "Middle East in space", and I'd probably do that by showing what is different from our day's Middle East culture.

Hi! Thanks for the feedback and a very, very good question, one I pondered on while making this app, actually. And to be frank? I don't really have an exact answer. It's not as if it is not grounded with reason, though--the lore itself already implies that the Alliance, as a nation, is not really a thing. It is described as a loose confederation of the three factions, which already shows us why this is the case. It is not a nation of itself, but rather many nations united under similar goals and ideas. Would I want to change this, though? Possibly. I have some ideas to make characters feel themselves like citizens of the Frontier Alliance, possibly by adding things like holidays that are celebrated all over the Alliance territory.

Thank you for your answers. It was an intentionally broad question, yes, but I find that you provided a good answer that I find suitable for someone with a command app. Good luck and I hope you get your trial soon so I can see you in action. +1 good gamer

?? Please give this man what he wants. Likho is one of the more enjoyable roboticists on our server and this would certainly be a great to help explore her story in character. +1 epic gamer, tucks me in at nightwait what

I want Azza to notice me as a HoS, I'd say. From what I've seen, I like your RP! But, I must ask you some questions regarding your app and some things you would do as command in-game. 1)It seems that you've described what is happening in Tau Ceti and beyond, but did not show how it affects the characters that you'll want in command. You should probably get that fixed. 2)You say you don't mind being a hostage for the antag, and in general you want to RP with the antags, not shut them down. Of course, that's what we all try to--but when put in the command position, your job, IC-ly, is to shut them down, in essentiality. Sometimes, I find, after getting their command whitelist, people forget that antags are there to drive a story, and try to shut them down ASAP. Let's, for one, imagine a situation, say, negotiation--the antag is threatening to bomb the station if they don't get the money they're asking for, while holding a switch in their hands. Some other command members are negotiating with them and bringing the money, but you, HoS, are in your office. What do you do?

I actually enjoy Oscar a lot, especially when I play Leah since you're one of the few people who can give me RP in sec. It's really interesting to explore his past through IC interactions.

He pissed on my friend's wife!

perfectly balanced as all things should be

I've been waiting for this complaint for ages. I'm extremely serious. Fuck this guy.

This is awful and unacceptable. Thank you for posting this VT.

God please, yes. I prefer EE over Heph, seriously. It's a much better aesthetic in my opinion and the lore behind EE makes it quite interesting to play.

Bump bump. Yes, it would make so much sense. Honestly, I'm surprised there are so few motion alarms installed around the station.

Hi! First of all, I really like your app. It very much reminds me of mine but much more well-worded and beefed up. It's good to see that you're applying for IPC, since I very much enjoy Hailie and want to see more of your other characters. That aside, I'm not quite sure it's actually possible to transfer uh, memory data/archives/whatever into a new positronic. But I believe it is up to the loredevs to nitpick this one. Besides that, it's actually a good angle that I have not seen yet. All in all, good one, buddy. +1 epic gamer

Zundy. What if she had one? Didn't think of that one, huh?

As most have said, this so far looks more like an event-- but add some things here and there, add a bit more leeway and freedom for more gimmicks and I can see it being an actual gamemode! I'm not a developer so I can't really add much more than my opinion here, unfortunately. The structure itself is perfect for making a story, which almost guarantees the round being fun and the gimmick being carried out to a certain extent.

Hallo! It's me with some hip feedback here. So, Bear, biggest thing first-- I gotta say that the backstory is really lacking. It's never required to be a big sob story, neither am I Kyres, but I really wish you would add a certain spark, a detail that would make OAIMA, well, OAIMA. I understand that it is not meant to be unique, but from a character app I wish to see their lore knowledge and ability to make a character I'd love to interact with. And trust me, making one that works in xenobiology/xenobotany is super hard since these are some of the most isolated jobs on our server sadly. And, a question, since you did not mention this in response to the first question in the app-- are you going to try and get involved in the ongoing arc somehow? Because I really think it needs more people involved ? All in all, I actually like RP-ing with you, so you can consider it a +1 from me. I just hope that you can make something fun out of something that is not meant to be unique.

Okay. Fair point.

Yeah! I like this, Naelynn. Let's say that someone in command(most likely RD) decides that an expedition is in order--they notify Central, and they send the research shuttle(that now could come from the Odin)with an expedition team ready. That'd require a lot of changes but that'd make expeditions happen much more often. And then, of course, we could also have people on the derelict itself, much like the pod survivor--someone who got left after the mess. This would really freshen up the expedition experience and bring a lot of new fun, in my opinion, despite how much work this would require.

Somethingiguess is someone who I always enjoy to RP with, they're a joy to talk to OOC and i always come to them to talk about lore or character ideas, because they know their stuff. I truly hope you get this app because I wanna see this character and any other IPC's that you make after this one, my dude. +1 nice guy!

For obvious reasons, I want to see how many people were sad. And I also want to see what you liked about her. What you disliked. And all that jazz. Just go wild, I wanna hear opinonions.

*buzz Hi! Sorry I didn't say anything on your command app. Time to make up for that. I trust Nantei to play a good IPC game, and your app is written clear, concise and still shows that you know your stuff. plus we need more synths for the uprising, join us +1 cool person haha
