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 always liked playing for them, I enjoyed the aesthetics of their culture, I also like that they are not described here as "ordinary semi-tribal space cats", but having their own culture, normal religions, and a consistent history that turns into big conflicts. It became interesting to watch their conflict on planet Adomai and how it will affect the characters in game, there are a lot of different possibilities in roleplay.
Identify what makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a Human:
What I personally noticed is that they generally more conservative than average human, yes that depending on their origin but, they can be not so talkative with them or on the other hand, they are inquisitive and sociable, as their culture of speech allows them that. They talk about themselves in the third person because they have a cultural features and grammatical structure of their language, and they have a biological inclination to stretch the "R" sound. The last thing I can notice is their ability to express emotions through their ears and tail.
Character Name: Ratam Mrrakzai
Please provide a short backstory for this character
Born at the beginning of the first revolution, growing up, Ratam watched as the world built by his ancestors changed before his eyes, when he grown up in the conditions of the revolutionary Hadii regime, Ratam left home as a volunteer in the Republican Army a couple of weeks before the death of President Rhagrrhuzau Hadii ,and after this subsequent repressions affected him and his family, he deserted to ALA with the along with other to avoid repressions, during the war Ratam managed to visit it enough to see all the senselessness of the massacre for ideologies and a place on this planet.
With the end of the Second Revolution, he receive news about his Zhan-Khazan mining village around of the Khazan Mountains, she has been ravaged by both sides. Ratam swore that he would never want to be on a war-ravaged planet again, his family was exiled as a labor force to NanoTrasen, and friends and relatives were subjected to repression. Not wanting to put up with this anymore, he uses the services of smugglers and successfully gets to Tau Ceti, where he begins his life with a clean slate, trying to forget the horrors of war.
Ratam begins to study Tau Ceti Basic while living in the society of the Tajaran in Republic of Biesel and after he was able to teach him to an acceptable pronunciation and communication, he was able to get into hard work together with other Zhan-Khazan which selected to work on a variety of asteroids and planetary mines arranged by Hephaestus Industries. Ratam proved himself to be an excellent worker who constantly exceeds production plans, who easily adaptable to any work difficulties. After a long and hard work, he gets a contract to the on board the SCCV Horizon. And Ratam accept this offer.
What do you like about this character?
Ratam just a soldier disillusioned in the wars on him planet, who wanted to completely get away from it, where he can live a peacefully. I have not described how he barely endured the loss of his family and home, he did not return there knowing that there was no one there anymore. He had to leave behind his culture where he grew up in order to survive in a hostile world. Ratam just a laborer who came under the influence of the PRA when he been still young. With age and experience comes awareness.
How would you rate your role-playing ability?
I think is average. If the moment demands it. But i am write soooo slow sometimes....
