Hello, as Sadkermit is no longer a part of our staff, I will be handling this. We absolutely do not want this sort of language and behavior on our server. However, it has been nearly two years and you seem sincere, so I am willing to give you a chance. Just know that any sort of repeats of this language will lead to an immediate permaban, and a second permaban is final per our rules.

Reporting Personnel: Yin'altorz Qreblikis Job Title of Reporting Personnel: Section Director (SCC) Game ID: N/A Personnel Involved: Foreberance, Head of Security - Offender Tulkir Zarkiirran, Hangar Technician - Witness Tamsyn Tibbles, Investigator - Witness Secondary Witnesses: (Name, Job Title - Short description of what they witnessed) N/A Time of Incident: N/A Real Time: N/A Location of Incident: SCCV Horizon Nature of Incident: [ ] - Workplace Hazard [ ] - Accident/Injury [ ] - Destruction of Property [ x ] - Neglect of Duty [ ] - Harassment [ ] - Assault [ x ] - Misconduct [ ] - Other _____ (Place an x in the box that applies. If other, replace line and specify.) Overview of the Incident: The SCCV Horizon has been at risk from the criminal group known as the Outer Eyes. Of particular note at numerous network hacks (see Command Communique date 13/01/2468) to which Head of Security Foreberance would have had access. The Outer Eyes have made numerous attempts to further whatever their agenda with the Horizon is. I recieved reports that two crew members, one of which was Tulkir Zarkiirran, attempted to access a prohibited site beloning to the group. The site appears to have been distributed via leaflets - a physical phising attempt - and while most of the crew was wise enough to not visit the site, two were not. It is fortunate this site was already under the watch of SCC data analysts, so any harm was prevented before it could occur. After informing Horizon command, an onship interview was conducted of those two crew members. While I now believe them innocent of any intentional wrongdoing, Ms Zarkiirran appears to have access the site at the behest of Head of Security Foreberance. Such an act was a blatant breach of network security. While there were no negative consequences to the Horizon's network for this incident, it could have resulted in another attack on the Horizon's network not unlike previous attacks. Of concern is also the manner in which Tulkir was co-erced into accessing this site. How this was done remains unclear, and warrants further investigation. Submitted Evidence: Attached is a fax I recieved from Tamsyn Tibbles. Forwarded confidentially will be the logs containing Tulkir's attempt to access to prohibited site. Would you like to be personally interviewed? [ ] - Yes [ x ] - No Did you report it to a Head of Staff or a superior? If so, who? If not, why? N/A Actions taken: N/A Additional Notes:

BYOND Ckey: Fyni Discord username: Fyni Character names: I’ve played a lot of characters semi regularly, however most people will know: Z.I. Circe (Investigator) Rhea Volvalaad (Consular) Hazel #S-H8.11 (Chef) Species you are applying to play: Dionae ------------------------------ General Whitelist Requirements What colour do you plan on making your first alien character?: A vague brown/green! Have you read the lore pages for the species you wish to be whitelisted for?: Yes Why do you wish to play this species?: Honestly? The sheer alien-ness of them is a huge draw. Dionae, of all Aurora’s species, are perhaps the most unique. While many of the ideas of the others can be found across sci fi, the idea of gestalt beings who can live fine in the void of space but most often end up forming bipedal forms able to work alongside your basic humans. The way they can think, interpret the universe blending with alien (to them) cultures. They take can be utterly different from anything other species can dream of. What makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a human?: You’re playing a ship of one and many. They are a gestalt, a collective minds working sometimes selfishly – and of course, exactly how that group comes to decisions can be varied based on mindtypes and the knowledge this particular gestalt has. ------------------------------ Character Application Character Name: Forgotten Hopes Reborn Tomorrow Write a backstory for your character. This may include their origin, education, personality and how they arrived to the SCCV Horizon. Forgotten Hopes Reborn Tomorrow (hereafter referred to as Hopes) formed from The Conglomerated Choir of Nralakk in 2226, enough nymphs breaking away to form a cyclops form. Intent to seek out knowledge the newly found Skrell, Hopes joined the rebuilding effort alongside many others. Taking on some nymphs with experience with the skrell, Hopes settled into a Scholarly Song mind type. Intend on learning via first hand experience, Hopes travelled the federation as it recovered from the reign of Glorsh-Omega. As a means to this end, it took various physical jobs in as many diverse locales as possible across the federation. During these travels, Hopes knowledge of the Skrell grew more and more. While it would partake of blood samples to quickly and short-term fill needed roles, it learned more from the experience working alongside them. The nymphs making up Hopes agree that this method was best, and avoided the consumption of the dead in recognition for the losses suffered by the Skrell in recent memory. Scholarly Song gestalts leadership style are not uniform, and Hopes took after their hosts. Some nymphs pushed for greater personal integration with the Skrell, forming longer bonds with induviduals and having a deeper knowledge from that. Others pushed for a more itinerant approach, hoping for a more varied sum of knowledge. Ultimately, Hopes began to internally vote on larger decisions, with some nymphs in the middle swaying from one side to the other over the years. It was during one of the itinerant moments that Hopes turned to the Eternal, learned from others in the Federation. Their approach and the Orthodox Eternal aligned. As the Diona of the Conglomerated Choir of Nralakk began to be more deeply integrated into the Federation, Hopes internal gestalt settled upon a path – one of academia and learning, focussing on one field in particular. No longer to wander, and with a SCI score to worry about, Hopes applied all they had learned into vigorous study in the field of xenoarchaeology. The collective’s belief in personal experience and learning over genetic absorption allowed them to integrate well into the recovering Federation. Finding much success with this meathod, the nymphs making up Hope were happiled chipped by the Council of Dionae Integration and Adoption. Their status of as a member of the Conglomerated Choir of Nralakk and their assistance in that early stage of the rebuilding saw them gain favourable treatment, alongside their following of the Orthodox Eternal and their peaceful and harmonious ways, they gained a favourable score in the Dionae Equitable Social Compatability System. How has the recent events of the Orion Spur impacted your character? Events such as the Phoron Scarcity, the Solarian Collapse or even the Invasions of Biesel for interstellar-wide affairs, while region-specific events such as the Peacekeeper Mandate, The Titan Rises or even Cold Dawn may impact your character. Hopes observed the Omnivirate’s emergence into the wider Spur with mixed feelings. The existence of the Scorned on Xrim has long been a point of pity and discomfort for every single nymph making up Hopes, and attempts to reach a compromise with the Scorned are largely held to be misguided by Hopes nymphs. They watch on as the Rotunnkc Compact continues to grow with interest. Finally, news of Moghes perked some interest – a matter of curiousity. How does your character view the megacorporation they work for? Late in the 2440s, Hopes began to work for Zeng-Hu. This was always a practical bond, as it allowed them more options for them in the future, with an eye to travel beyond the bounds of the Federation for the first time in centuries. Zeng-Hu was chosen for it’s ties with the Federation, though it is something Hopes reached disharmony with early in the career. The corporation’s use of augments and genetic modification did not sit well with Hopes practical approach, and it was for this reason they jumped on the opportunity for employment with the SCC directly as a Research Director. SCC’s nature as a melting pot of corporate influences and peoples was much more appealing to Hopes, and perhaps naively saw it as an attempt at harmony across many different peoples, which forever aligns with their own goals.

Threat Brief - The Outer Eyes Date: 16/02/2468 WARNING – THIS REPORT IS CONFIDENTIAL, AND ALL DETAILS ARE CONSIDERED A CORPORATE SECRET. ANY MEMBER OF CREW FOUND TO LEAK THE INFORMATION HEREIN TO OUTSIDE SOURCES WILL BE SUBJECT TO i308 LEADING TO IMMEDIATE SUSPENSION AND HuT, PENDING TRANSFER TO BIESEL SECURITY SERVICES BUREAU. It has come to light that the attempted hacks of the Horizon, and recent reports of multiple unwanted passengers, are linked to a group known as the Outer Eyes. There is not much publicly available information on the Outer Eyes, however the BSSB has had the group on their watchlists for nearly three years. Overview The Outer Eyes are a known criminal syndicate, operating largely in the Light’s Edge region, though crimes and activities prescribed to them have been recorded as far as Mendell City itself. Interrogation of low-level agents working for the Eyes have noted a “cult like” system. They recruit in a similar manner, promising secrets and a “place” in some great plan. Each member believes themselves privy to some greater secret, leading to fanatical loyalty from even petty members. Care should be taken when dealing with potential suspect from the eyes. The exact nature of the Outer Eyes is unknown. Their enterprises are wide, ranging from arranged killings to trading in illicit substances and wild life. They are known to be heavily involved in the illicit “purple market”, a trade of stolen phoron. This purple market is filled with corrupt officials, blackmail and even murder, and a string of such incidents uncovered by the BSSB over the past decade has only recently been formed into a pattern implicating the Outer Eyes. BSSB investigation have traced this illegal phoron trade as far back as Özdemir’s invasion of Tau Ceti, however it is impossible to fully determine if this trade existed before 2462 and only the decline in the phoron supply made this traceable. Therefore, how long the Outer Eyes has operated is unknown. Modus Operandi Several instances of corporate workers been brought to their side have been recorded, particularly by Orion Express, and their network has been adept at placing unwanted but undetected passengers aboard various SCC ships and installations in recent months. Thus far, these agents have been limited to minor sabotage, subversive rhetoric and network hacks. What is known is that alongside illicit trade, the Outer Eyes indirectly control many of the pirates in Light’s Edge, paying and directing them to their own purpose, and taking first claim on any spoils. This “fleet” is not unified in any real way, and it is possible many of these privateers are unaware that others operate under the same direction. Multiple seperate policing actions by the TCAF, Assunzione Navy, Coalition Ranger and Elyran Navy have proven to be effective against these pirates, cracking down on many dens and small groups and it is believed such pirates can be safely encountered by the Horizon in small numbers, if needed. The Frontier Protection Bureau however believes there are a small number of Outer Eyes ships operated directly by the group, made from aged Solarian warships, and even one report of a ship of Moghes origin. These ships are considered a major threat to the Horizon, and if engagement is required, it should be done so with reinforcement, and only one at a time. Operational Recommendations The Outer Eye’s interest in the Horizon is not unique – similar instances have been reported by all ships involved in Operation Deep Dive (details pending). Departments are to treat any guilty of crimes assosiated with the Outer Eyes as they would any other subversive until more data can be gathered, however any information on the source of funds, intelligence and placement is highly sought after by analysts on the SCC-CC Odin, and should be forwarded as a matter of priority.

Operations changes and improvements - Feedback and future considerations
Fyni replied to TheGreyWolf's topic in Projects
This is something I toyed with off server - that is, putting a "recommended price" on the wiki for food and the like. The standidization of the credit to be roughly in line with value with a USD and the additional of coins worth less than 1 credit is what we've needed to make this a thing. I think a proper price rework, with consistant prices across rounds and between items, is extremely important to making persistant money systems which are proposed actually carry weight. I think an important thing here is to give EVERYONE a "appraise / judge value" verb, which lets them gauge the value of an item at a glance. Price scanners would obviously give an exact number. Tying this verb to the proposed skill system, so those who with more knowledge in an area get a closer value and those without would get a wide window, would be lovely too. I also think we should have the value given by this and the scanner be equal to a "value if it is been sold to you". Obviously, how much getmore pays for a chocolate bar and how much the crew pay right now are very much different. We should keep the value standard to "retail price" as it were. I'd like to see a "persistant" section of the warehouse, where items could be stored and they would save. If not returned before round end, they're gone. However how you balance this would be difficult, and it would create a "pack up at shift end" mentality I'd want to avoid. A persistant material shelf or two in mining (and ONLY in mining / the warehouse) meaning mining even on quiet rounds is appreciated later on would be great. It would also mean operations naturally doesn't want to just dump ALL the materials mining gets on the machinist / RnD / engineering and would be more involved in tracking exactly what is needed. This would need to be balanced with lower on map every round spawns of materials however. I'd also like to see the Horizon get a guareenteed asteroid spawn directly under it every round. Just a basic small astreroid, which allows mining to do their thing or fly further afield if they want more excitement. IC, it makes sense that the Horizon would seek an exploitable resource to be on top of at the start of every shift. I've advocated for a space elevator. A 5x5 elevator (6x6 if you include the wall around the drop site) which works like we have now, with one end in operations (and hopefully accessible from common areas for use as passenger transport) and the other end placeable around a beacon. If the beacon has to be set up, rounds will still need the "fly down in the Intrepid" as an opener for away mission, so this will only effect after the initial landing. I'd also love to see disposable delivery pods, like the drop pods we have now. Putting the beacons for BOTH these in the hands of operations (but hand-out able if operations are low on numbers) would give more incentive to sending a HT out on missions too. -
Accepted.

It has been long enough since this ban, and you have been playing recently reasonably, that I am willing to lift the it. However, you have a history of over stepping the restrictions of your role way before it is acceptable. I would ask in the future you be extra mindful of these things, especially in medical, to prevent a repeat ban which will be unlikely to be appealed.
