The problem is circumventing the current medical system in lieu of “Ding Clones Are Done!” I don’t think a perpetual firefight is something good for heavy role play.

I agree with this, but it should be done in a way that makes the methods of cloning infeasible through a sort of morality movement, or tragic accident, that outlaws it completely— current clones can deal with a stigma or negative connotation of being a clone, but someone illegally cloned after the fact would not, say, be afforded the opportunity to “pick up” where the original left off— their existence would be a crime itself and they would either be borgified or worse, depending on where the act was done. IE: You are an illegal clone that works on the Aurora, first-time. No one is privy to it unless it gets dragged into the light. IE: You were “grandfathered” in and are essentially, if known to be a clone, somewhat vilified and untrusted to an extent. In terms of legality, I would wager that all current “legal” clones maintain their rights as “originals,” and the buck stops there. Voting for dismissal of this comment (I jest): there are absolutely more than two characters at present that have been cloned or using cloning in their backstory. It’s a pivotal point of development for a character, whether they want it to be or not. To address the main topic: Having cloning facilities present on station kinda returns us to: “Why go through all the steps of brain-med if we can just clone them?” and with the current idea of implementation, we’d have the ISD running around in wheelchairs with energy rifles on their lap post-cloning.

Like every antagonist is supposed to do, we should have build-up. Walking into the station and sabotaging research beyond a function of a job (deleting their research, stealing their mats) without build-up is griefing, IMO. The same logic can be applied to Security: ”I am an antagonist and stealing all of Security’s weapons will make my ventures easier and set the response to my antics to be delayed? Fantastic!” “Destroy Medical’s surgical beds, that’ll really stick NanoTrasen in the gut when their doctors can’t heal anyone!” Real talk - Tbh, if you feel that there was no build-up and all your of your work was wiped for a giggle or meme or powergamey feels, ahelp it, mods and admins will sort it out if there is a genuine issue, but you need to report it.

Me when I went to Boralus for the first time and screamed silently.

I think this might be the first Compact Unathi application I've seen so far, which is awesome because it's definitely an interesting piece of lore. I enjoy the wordliness of the character as she would listen to the stories hostages would recant. It's interesting, also, that women and hostages aboard Compact vessels are effectively on the same "level", but her martial prowess has put her a notch above the rest. Just a two questions if you would humor me: The Grim Compact is, essentially, a vassal of the Hegemony by Not'zar's own designation, what is Kirsius' opinion of the Hegemony? What religion does she and her family adhere to? The Grim Compact, for the most part, is partial to the Sk'akh faith, given the crimes of the two Dread-Lords were forgiven by Unzi, but now Unzi got the big boot so has that affected her beliefs, or lack thereof?

Hahah, Frank Pewter. A delightful character and the player is no stranger to taking otherwise horrible gimmicks and placing a spin on them. 10/10 would pay a tilde to Raskara so I don't get murder-boned. Really, though, the way you create characters is quite similar to how I do it and I have no doubt that you'll be able to drive excellent RP-narratives with this whitelist. I look forward to your trial! +1

Very cute, wholesome, and has an applicable purpose. I hope this also serves as a standard for possible xeno-friendly welding masks in the future? ❤️ +1

Ah, Ventii. If Wilhelm Sauer was any indication of their above-par roleplay that inspired even myself to commit to using the "me" command more, I'm not sure what I expected from Mills. Involving multiple aspects of the station, from service-squad to the insulated Medbay, Mills is eager and completely approachable. I've seen nothing but positive experiences in my observations and I know that this trial is completely unnecessary because I KNOW that roleplay comes so natural to you and each time are characters interact, it is like a breath of fresh air in my otherwise recycled-air-filled lungs. +1

Before I start answering, thank you for reading and asking! So, yes! For the average worker, in accordance to the Wiki's portrayal of Nal'tor culture especially, "The quality of life for an urban dweller in Nal'tor, or any other major city, can vary considerably according to the Tajara's occupation, education and standing with the Party. The average worker that labours in the industrial suburbs, can expect an honest living to be made, and a modest lifestyle to be led." (shorturl.at/acuzJ) Such was his life while his father was still alive. He was a relatively average worker, but such work under People's Republic is rewarded with a life, though bare-bones, of little wanting. However, once his father passed away, it was time to support himself and his mother under.. What skills, exactly? A fourteen-year old, with added desires for nothing really, jumped into the fray of the labor force at the bottom rung. I noted, during the time around the nuclear bombing of the Quizosa military base, that he was already in throes of the workforce by then. But, with the added weight of his mother holding him down, his warped sense of subservience towards the PRA and S'rand'marr and Messa, and the breaking point of his mother passing away, inspired him to commit to change while keeping in adherence to the Party's beliefs. When I answered Joshie's question above, he does have intense loathing of the Capitalist society that effectively murdered his father, but: Whilst he trusts and believes in the PRA, the fact is that outside vectors: NanoTrasen, the Solarian Embargo, and the other factions actively working against them, are a aplenty. Learn the enemy from within, use their resources and, as I said before, funnel them back to the Republic with the knowledge and skills that he'd learn in Tau Ceti space that may not have been afforded to him otherwise. He's not a perfect character. In his vision, taking the initiative to attempt to immerse and blend himself into Tau Ceti culture whilst retaining his identity of the People's Republic's ideal citizen is, in fact, altruistic. To me, it's selfish, right? Who is this character to give himself the sword of karmic justice and attempt to remove the restraints that Capitalistic society has imposed on him, his father and mother? In his mind, however, it's more of, "what would embody the PRA's beliefs?" And that is, to Mrrazhalrr, to remove a leech from the Adhomai's surface. To address his personal beliefs about the Zhan and Njarir, he does loathe the former and fear the latter. I was also under the assumption that whilst the PRA does preach for equality under one banner, that following the assassination of Rhagrrhuzau in 2451, Zhan didn't leave the best taste in the Republic's mouth. "Due to such, zhan communities are often persecuted by the authorities, and have an overall negative image before the eyes of the Republican mass. "(shorturl.at/acuzJ) He was young when his father was taken from him, and such never would've happened had Rhagrrhuzau lived. While he maintains firm support for the PRA, I believe it's completely possible to still maintain a bit of abhorrence towards the Zhan as many did during that time and, likely, still do. My first instinct was to reply was "Find out ICLY," but, you know... Mrrazhalrr believes that he fully adheres to the concept of Hadiism and he understands the ramifications of being on a station where Zhan are active members of the personnel, immersing himself in a capitalist, foreign society, and that he'll have to turn his back on all he knows to re-learn an entire culture. His faith, S'rendarr and Messa, preach selflessness, restraint, chastity, and charity as the ideal moral belief system. Restraint, keyword here. Is he going to actively cause a ruckus on station because that one Zhan is a Security Officer? Likely not, but the tension will be there. For this one, I will say that I look forward to telling the story if he succeeds or not, but where he stands right now, ideally on a cushy PRA shuttle heading towards Tau Ceti instead of being taxi'd in a crate by a Ha'rron like the rest of the Njarir, I say yes.

Bear’s CMO PDA’d my chef asking for “chiccie nuggets” knowing full-well there was no cargo nor chicken aboard the station. this set off a personal adventure arc where my chef had to somehow invent a fake, synthetic chicken meat that had a flavor text non-descript enough to be chicken and an appropriate icon. he also gave me corrosive substances for soy sauce with the proper forms and stayed at the kitchen to chat with me instead of sprinting back to chair RP with medical. 10/10 Command exists to further the RP of their crew, I stan for Sliver. +1
