Krab Meister

Played as xenoarch, loved the support, made me feel actually useful. Very good RD lizloz +1

Yes, they are all included in the ZIP file. I only used the service one as a preview, since it's the department I spent the most time in, when I play as WYVERN.

I'd like to note that CNEGecko made the sprite, not me! I probably should've mentionned it in the app.

BYOND Key: Krab Meister Discord Username: Maitre Crabe#9854 Character Name: WYVERN Item Name: (if you are applying for multiple items, it should be made into a list with the description, name and appearance together): Decapod shell Item Function(s): A new shell for WYVERN, based on the arachnotronic chassis. Item Description: Developped from the arachnotronic chassis, the Decapod version is more similar to a crab than a spider. The clamps, depending on the cyborg's duty can be purely decorative or used as replacements for grippers. The words "Whittemore-Yale's Versatile Enhanced Robotic Novelty" are engraved on the left side of the shell. Why is your character bringing this item to work?: After spending some shifts in the Aurora's kitchen, WYVERN has come to the conclusion that being equipped with such a chassis would not only make moving plates and other objects more reliable, but also attract more customers! After all, it is brand new, clean and shiny! How did your character obtain this item?: The shell has been upgraded with the help of the NTCC Odin's roboticists inbetween shifts, as an upgrade for kitchen duties. What value does this item have to your character, and what story does it tell?: Being a brand new, shiny, polished shell, WYVERN will take extra-care of its body. Meaning no more jumping in phoron-filled rooms built by the maintenance drones. Sprites: WYVERNcustomborg.7z (Front view of the Service chassis as a sample) Additional Comments: Regarding gameplay, due to the two large clamps, Wyvern will always keep two grippers on the slots numbered 1 and 3, the middle slot being the one that will be constantly changed depending on the required duties. There are two exceptions however, being the medical and rescue module, as all three slots will need to be used in order to guarantee efficency. Edit - The sprite was made by CNEGecko, not me!

Identify what makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a Human: To be prefectly honest, I don't know what else to add other than coming up with the gameplay differences such as the air-cooling instead of internals, the fact that some synths don't feel pain and so on. Consider telling a story with your application. Is Harpo owned by Zenghu still? Why are they on the Aurora? Harpocrates is indeed still owned by Zeng-Hu and has been sent to the Aurora in order to help deaf and/or mute crewmates, He is also acting as a "scout" for Harp Pharmaceuticals who are looking to grow bigger and sell their products to more people (That last point being relevent if I am allowed to create this company.) Being tired of always doing the same things with the same people at the same placed, Harpo wanted to change horizons and.. still do the same thing, but with other people and in a different place.

BYOND Key: Krab Meister Character Names: Evangeline Watari (Now Evangeline Andersen), Elena Leporis, Tania Moldovan, Phantom-D2 (pAI), Keepers Of Binary Thoughts, WYVERN. Species you are applying to play: Synthetic/IPC What color do you plan on making your first alien character: (Color of your character; Dionaea & IPCs exempt) Have you read our lore section's page on this species?: Yes, and I'm reading it again. 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 would like to experience a new way of playing SS13. Dionaea are a very nice, and slow change of pace regarding the way I usually play SS13, though I would like something else than humans while keeping the same speed when it comes to movement and interactions. Identify what makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a Human: IPCs are much more different from playing as humans, even if they can at least mimick them during certain interactions (such as using slang and accents from their owner's setup). They are very predictable, making choices related to what could happen next after said choice, while also constantly being respectful to the humans around them. Character Name: Harpo Please provide a short backstory for this character (Approximately two paragraphs) Harpo (of its full name Harpocrates) is a Zeng-Hu owned IPC first created to assist deaf people in their daily lives, the lack of speech necessary for his interactions being unnecessary lead to a downgrade of his voicebox. Reducing it to speak EAL, and sign language which is always assisted with a word or two displayed on the "TV Head". For those who aren't deaf, Harpo communicates usings tones and melodies, and obviously still relying on his screen to help the others around him to understand himself. Otherwise (and if available), Harpo will use a handheld translator in order to translate his EAL speech. Recently assigned to the NSS Aurora as a bartender working for NanoTrasen, his number one priority is to make sure people who are deaf on the station are to remain safe and healthy, therefore explaining his appearance as a Visitor or Assistant. What do you like about this character? While Harpo will not speak (at least, not until I get comfortable with the character and start an ark to get a voice box), he will display one or two words on his "TV head" while using sign-language. Not only will he beep, buzz and ping, but he will also play short melodies and nice tunes (through me text). How would you rate your role-playing ability? Probably a 7 out of 10. I sometimes roleplay too much and end up in embarassing situations especially when antagging. Notes: Regarding who owns Harpo, I was thinking of coming up with a smaller company who would be owned by Zeng-Hu, named Harp Pharmaceuticals.

A lovely, kind and caring character, the player themselves know a lot of about the science department so that's always a good thing! +1 as well!

First off, your backstory seems kind of slim but I'll give ya few pointers to expand a bit on: (Preferably in a connecting paragraph) Going back over the job studies, Binary has been studying a lot on his own, but did rely a lot on his friends at the academy when it came to the subjects they were having trouble with. However, they did keep the whole 'borrowing' blood part away from everything that is considered official studies. Needless to say, they did cheat a few times, but only when all else failed. Binary are disappointed by the Solarian Occupation, but glad that there is some monetary relief to the pain and struggles they went through. Even though they like to think it's better than nothing, they still expected more, which brings us to the current event. With the Sol Alliance's decline, Binary is not taking any actions to help it, or go against it. They only watch things unfold while hoping that the Sol Alliance would get what they deserve for everything they've done not only against Binary and his nymphs, but also for the other Dionaes there. While they are also looking at the Biesel Dionae's haven, they find themselves eager to join them, they'd be willing to join them, but they would like to know more about them first. Binary doesn't want to go into a place named a 'Haven' that could potentially be worse than the Sol Alliance because of a lack of information.

-Do all the nymphs in the gestalt share the same genetic issue? No, not most of them. Three quarters of Keepers' nymphs have this issue, The last quarter however remains silent as if they had this issue as well. These ones are the reason why Keepers speaks very little Basic, understands it flawlessly and isn't practically mute.

-Where was Keepers born? Keepers was born in Venter Cetus, in the Venter System. (The one near Konyang, in the Sol Alliance's outer ring) -How did they travel around from station to station? They made deals with whoever owned the shuttles. Since most things about Dionae are unknown to humans, they exchanged a trip whereever the shuttle went, in exchanged for informations. Even though they fooled a lot of people this way, by telling basic things, such as the nymph splitting, the rootsong, et cetera. -How does Keepers feel about the Biesel Dionae community? They are envious, being from the Sol Alliance, they are obviously oppressed and unhappy and wish to be treated like other Dionae, such as those in Biesel. -Why can't they speak normally? Keepers' answer would be "Lack of practice." However, it is a disfunction in their genes, but it can be fixed with time.

- BYOND Key; Krab Meister - Character Names: Evangeline Watari, Elena Leporis, Tania Moldovan, AEBA (pAI) - Species you are applying to play: Dionae - Have you read our lore section's page on this species?: Yes, the Dionae lore, history, culture and the notable factions. 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: It seems interesting because of the experience it could give me, as well as exploring a new way of roleplaying. I've liked to have my characters interact with Dionaes and I personally love their design. - Identify what makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a Human: First of all, the difference between the psychology, the way they think. As well as the different gameplay elements such as the nymph spitting, the biomass-related building, the light and radiation that influences health and walking speed is also great. - Character Name: Keepers Of Binary Thoughts - Please provide a short backstory for this character Keepers Of Binary Thoughts was, and always have been interested in synthetic life while being mute themselves and having only access to rootsongs to communicate 'vocally'. They have learned about robotics in some stations as they travelled and asked for a sample of blood from some of the roboticists on shift. Having earned enough knowledge to consider themselves biomechanical engineers, they have applied to work for NanoTrasen while not paying mind to their politics. They will not let themselves get carried away by their feelings and become aggressive. However, they will not stop someone from becoming aggressive either, unless they are directly threatened. However, they will often decide to talk rather than fight. - What do you like about this character? Keepers Of Binary Thoughts will be attracted to everything robotics-related, whether it is prosthetics limbs, IPCs or cyborgs. However, they will tend to stay away from exosuits, or only build them if asked or ordered to. - How would you rate your role-playing ability? Staying humble, I would say I am decent at roleplaying. I have been doing roleplays similar to those of SS13 on Discord, where it was text only. I've gotten used to Aurora's UI and mechanics by now as well. Notes: Keepers of Binary Thoughts will have access to the robotics lab's circuitry kit, and will always make a translator in order to translate Rootsong to Tau Ceti Basic however they do understand the language perfectly and speak a few words of said language.

Alright, I just thought that contractor-themed bags would've been a nice addition. It was worth a shot.

Byond key: Krab Meister Discord key: Maitre Crabe#5498 Character Name: Evangeline Watari Item name: zavodskoi messenger bag Item function(s): It's.. a bag. Item description: A black and red messenger bag bearing zavodskoi's emblem on it Why is your character bringing this item to work?: Mostly because it's comfier than a duffel bag, its smaller, and its zavodskoi sponsored! How did your character obtain this item: She took a syndicate messenger back from the warehouse, and modified it herself at her home to remove the syndicate's emblem, and add Zavodskoi's instead. What value does this item have to your character, and what story does it tell?: This bag has an extremely high value to Evangeline, losing it wouldn't mean losing her entire stuff, but it would probably put her in some kind of blind rage to try and find it back. Sprites: Syndicate messenger bag Additional Comments: I'm mostly only asking for this because no other bag has the color scheme that goes along zavodskoi's stuff.
