Character Names:
Species you are applying to play: Vaurca
What color do you plan on making your first alien character (Dionaea & IPCs exempt): Blue
Have you read our lore section's page on this species?: Yezzz
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'm all about some hiveminds. I love reading, watching, and playing things about them. From the Queen Mother in the Ender's Game Seris, which now that I'm thinking about it has some pretty darn strong similarities to Vaurca. Other examples obviously include the Xenomorphs from the Alien(s) Franchise, and Stellaris Hiveminds. The Vaurca have a pretty unique take on Hiveminds as well, instead of it being a bunch of robots with basically connected Internet, or Ants with pheromone/Biological Based Hiveminds, its a mesh of the two. On top of that, it isn't just one large super-Hive, the hives are fragmented and each has a unique history, motivation, and personality.
Identify what makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a Human: The Obvious starter is that you have four creepy incest eyes, some insect carapace and some insect brains. The Vaurca playstyle is different in several ways, and branches off into trees. Step one is the Hive you belong to and if you are a Warrior or Worker, then if you are Bound or Unbound. That totals up to roughly 12 different playstyles based on those variables alone, not including personal backstory or job. A Brief Summary basically consists of:
Character Name: Za'Akaix'Iok'C'thur
Please provide a short backstory for this character, approximately 2 paragraphs:
What do you like about this character? Uh, well for starters I made him. He has what I believe to be an expansive backstory and a well founded education. I’ve kinda made him a blank slate for me to add on to as I get a feel for playing the race, because I’ve heard that Vaurca Playstyles can take a minute to get use to.
How would you rate your role-playing ability? 7.2/10
Notes: Zzend queen noodzz. Alot of the App is me just creative writing, and since there is abit of a void when it comes to early Vaurca Lives. And I know Iok is abit of blank slate, but I’m not fully confident in my knowledge of Individual Vaurca personalities yet, and want it to be shaped by the Station, and obviously by his Brood.
