The only people who will ever be seeing my IDs are HIS MAJESTY'S ((THE KING!!!)) revenue and customs (for when I evade taxes) and the DVSA (for when I drive drunk). I don't drink alcoholic stuff (much), my fiancée would kill me. Very faulty. I'm mute - I do not have the ability to speak. No way I (or many other people) are comfortable showing our faces to folks. Besides, I'm told I look 17 (thanks to that one girl at Morrisons that one time), so, that's out of the question. With all that considered, if I were to ever apply to become a mod (or in the future, admin) ((Which I won't anyway 'cos OOC moderation no longer appeals to me)), I would be completely restricted, even though I am, in fact, 21.

Yeah, repeat of what ASmallCuteCat said. They were pretty good, no complaints except the usual 'first round seeming a tiny little bit overwhelmed' stuff that literally everyone goes through, especially as this round was a decently high intensity odyssey round... so yeah considering that too, no complaints. Good +1

This is a very fair point, one which I didn't take into account. But you also provide a very good alternative, which I'll take and use, 🫡 (that being the saving face one, which I will probably elaborate more on when it comes to writing the character's records) Whilst Qei is a loyal citizen, their faith in it has been shaken recently, due to the issue presented in their backstory. This isn't to say they've suddenly become a terrorist overnight - they still strongly support the Federation, and their issue is moreso with the Enterprises and Corporations Qei works for, rather than the Federation itself. Their SCI would sit steadily at around 5.9, slowly creeping up or down with the minor qualms or boons they experience. They are a scientist, still somewhat in education, worshipping Weishii - so it would make sense for it to be slightly higher than the average. Qei views Diona as valued assistants, though does not have too much experience with them. The same goes for Vaurca, with Vaurca being exceedingly rare on Aliose, it is understandable that Qei only has passing opinions on both species. Overall, Qei sees the integration of the two species as benefits to the Federation, after all, if they weren't a benefit, surely the Federation would have gotten rid of them. As for the last two questions, that being their opinion on other species, and skrell born outside of the federation, it is something I would prefer to explore on an in-character basis. Qei has simple opinions when it comes to both - they don't know much about either. They've met the occasional Human on Aliose, when one happens to stumble by their streets, but, like Vaurca on Aliose, they are incredibly rare. Whilst Qei is a listener, the nlom/wake doesn't effect them as much as it would many others. This stems from the fact that they are less psionically sufficient than the average Skrell, and prefer to shut themself off from both the nlom, and the srom to better concentrate on their studies.

BYOND Ckey: LforLouise Discord username: louiseisnthome Character names: Ayishah Al-Ghazzawi, Rayhana Gawahir Species you are applying to play: Skrell ------------------------------ General Whitelist Requirements What colour do you plan on making your first alien character?: An off-white / Grey-ish white Have you read the lore pages for the species you wish to be whitelisted for?: Yes Why do you wish to play this species?: The lore of this species is very well written, and interesting to read. It is inviting to new character types that I would like to explore. The fact that they feel a lot more alien than some of the other alien species we have in Aurora helps that, too. What makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a human?: Nearly everything about Skrell is different to Humans. From the lack of biological sexes and varied ethnicities, to their language quirks and long history, they are a genuinely alien species with so many different quirks that make them different, and maybe often difficult to roleplay well. ------------------------------ Character Application Character Name: Qei Lax Write a backstory for your character. Qei Lax is a (relatively) young Xiialt Skrell, of 67 years. They were raised in Fedas'qlip, on Aliose, and began their uyi'vesi by studying hospital administration in one of AUMS' sister universities. Upon the completion of that degree, they then started a second degree, now with the AUMS itself, focussing on medical research in hydroponics - which they continue to study. Their studies would eventually lead them to Ziip'Ta Medicinal in 2463, following a small, but notable breakthrough in the application of certain plants in genetic engineering. The Enterprise quickly had Qei Lax sign a contract, binding them to work following their graduation. Some months prior to the present day, Qei Lax's breakthrough was found to have adverse reactions in 50% of the Skrell it was used in, and it was later revealed to be the efforts of a competitor skewing the results of Qei Lax's experiments. Through no fault of their own, Qei Lax's contract with Ziip'Ta was quietly amended, and they were seconded to Zeng-Hu Pharmaceuticals through the Work Initiative Program, where they will complete their studies aboard a Zeng-Hu facility (aka, the xenobotany labs aboard the Horizon). How has the recent events of the Orion Spur impacted your character? The relatively recent adoption of phoron in much of the modern pharmaceutical field has superseded the various pre-phoron medicines, and procedures. This is not without it's flaws, as the phoron scarcity threatens to stall the progress that has been made. Qei Lax's present studies aim to mitigate this by pivoting towards, and progressing in the field of, pre-phoron medicines, primarily through the study of xenobotany. How does your character view the megacorporation they work for? As a participant of the Work Initiative Program, Qei Lax works for both Zeng-Hu & Ziip'Ta. They view working for Zeng-Hu as a punishment for an incident they did not cause, and are understandably not too pleased to be working for them, though they are stuck with the corporation until the end of their studies in 3 years from now, and won't let that hinder their progress. They view Ziip'Ta with contempt, for allowing their current situation to happen, and for backing out of a deal they viewed as life-changing. Regardless, upon the end of their studies, they strongly believe that working with Ziip'Ta is the only way for their ambition to be sated.

CCIA Staff Application Basic Information Byond key: LforLouise Character names: Way too many, main ones are Ayishah Al-Ghazzawi & Rayhana Gawahir Age: 21 Timezone: GMT/BST depending on how the sun feels What times are you most available?: Any times, though of course daylight hours in GMT are preferred. Experience How long have you played SS13?: Since late 2020 or early 2021 How long have you played on Aurora?: Since late 2023, though I only started playing actively in early 2024, during the Silicon Nightmares arc How active on the forums, discord and/or server are you?: I'm not active on the forums much - everything commonly needed is on Discord anyway. I do occasionally log on to the forums to see the funny screenshot threads, and upvote applications. As for the server, due to the ongoing DDOSing, I'm not as active as I'd like to be, but that goes for most other folk too. I would usually aim to play a few highpop rounds a week, on various characters. Have you ever been banned, and if so, how long and why?: Yes, once, for a few hours, for ban evasion, though I was mistaken for someone else. Have you ever volunteered as moderation staff for any other servers, SS13 or otherwise?: On SS13, I 'moderated' a chat for an SCP server that didn't last long, unfortunately. Do you have any other experience that you believe would be relevant to a position in the CCIA?: Unfortunately not much at all. There's some experience running groups, and administration things, but none similar to this. Personality Why do you want to join the CCIA?: A few reasons. It would be interesting to see how IC complaints are handled, and get involved with them from both an IC and OOC view. It's also a decent start to helping out the server where I have an interest to do so. What do you think are the most important qualities for a CCIA Agent to possess?: Not being stubborn, but also recognising when it's appropriate to assert an opinion. Not holding biases or grudges, then again that's more of an OOC issue if someone's doing that against players. What do you think the purpose of a CCIA Agent is in an ongoing round?: Before I asked Bear, I assumed it was mostly handling IRs, and acting as a sort of HR agent in game on some occasions. After asking, they've told me more about what CCIA does. Whilst it includes what I've wrote, CCIA agents also handle some smaller events, and handle faxes (which I can see myself being interested in). What do you think the purpose of a CCIA Agent is outside of the server?: Outside the game itself, CCIA are the ones who handle IRs, and give advice/viewpoints on procedures. I would assume there's also a bridge between moderation staff and players, too, but, I wouldn't about that. How do you handle stress?: It would depend on what the task is. I wouldn't fold under stress when interacting with people, or anything else the CCIA would do. How well do you work autonomously?: I work better autonomously than I do in a team. This isn't to say I don't work well in a team - I do, and I'm still good at it, but only having myself to blame for any mistake pushes me to do better anyway. Generally, as long as I'm given guidelines on what to, and not to do, I can work quickly and easily.

on one hand, i dont see a necessity for this. on the other hand, it would be cool.

If other, replace line and specify.) Overview of the Incident: Captain & Chief Engineer, after the reports of the Burzsia attacks, decided to start fearmongering, and spreading hateful rumours regarding synthetics and synthetic crew. Noting our own synthetic engineering staff as cultists, among many other things. This is entirely unprofessional of command staff on an official workplace communications network, from my point of view.

+1 I was there for their first round, somewhat fast-paced operatives round that evolved into a preeeetty big manhunt & firefight, involving off-ships too. Handled it well, and the few flaws they showed were minor and are easy to iron out.

+1 a good rper, a nice person, but i think they might need to read synth lore a bit more

I haven't had too much interaction with them (unfortunately), but what I can say is, the interactions I have had with Adam Valeas have all been fun, and interesting +1

Reporting Personnel: Ayse Hayrettin Job Title of Reporting Personnel: Research Director Game ID: cvK-a49N Personnel Involved: Gordon Rakhya, Security Officer - Offender Clark Coldsmith, Investigator - Witness Hanalei Harriet, Medical Intern - Witness Papahanaumoku, Off-Duty Crewmember - Witness Ayse Hayrettin, Research Director - Witness (Myself) Secondary Witnesses: Katia Ilina, Atmospheric Technician - Repaired the damage to the breached areas. Time of Incident: 07:52 Real Time: 0845GMT 17/09/24 Location of Incident: Engineering, Library Nature of Incident: [X] - Workplace Hazard [ ] - Accident/Injury [X] - Destruction of Property [ ] - Neglect of Duty [ ] - Harassment [ ] - Assault [X] - Misconduct [ ] - Other _____ Overview of the Incident: The station underwent a minor blackout, lasting only a few minutes. Mister Rakhya noted their annoyance with this, and stated in front of all witnesses that he was 'going to do something about the power'. Mister Rakhya then left the library, where we were all gathered. A few minutes later, the power was restored, and a few minutes after that, Mister Rakhya re-entered the library donned in a full rad-protection suit, stating that they can be thanked via PDA transfer. Someone asked how they got in, and Mister Rakhya responded by saying that he used leftover C4 in the evidence lockers, he then stated that he was heading to Residential. I decided to go to engineering to see if he did do what he said, and yes, there were two holes into the Supermatter chamber, with charred marks on the floor, and damage to devices and doors beside the holes - Clear signs of the use of explosives. The supermatter engine was active, but the protective shutters in the chamber itself, and the observation office, were still open. Submitted Evidence: Would you like to be personally interviewed?: [X] - Yes [ ] - No Did you report it to a Head of Staff or a superior? If so, who? If not, why?: Yes/No. I myself was a witness to the incident, but the offender's direct head of staff was not present. Actions taken: Investigations were conducted by Mister Coldsmith for the purposes of gathering evidence for an incident report, however, the offender went to residential immediately after the incident, so no actions were able to be taken against them. Additional Notes: The round this took place in was autotraitor, but Gordon Rakhya didn't show up in the end of round list of antags, so I'm unsure. CCIA's call, I guess!

Havent seen them play their CE yet but their other characters are great, and they rp well, they know how to escalate to a veeeeeery nice degree, and they know the departments they plan to command to a near-flawless degree, easy +1 from me

BYOND key: LforLouise Discord Username: louiseisnthome Character names: Ayishah Al-Ghazzawi How long have you been playing on Aurora? Since November 2023 Have you received any administrative actions? And how serious were they? A few warnings for various minor things, though none are malicious or intentionally rule breaking. Please provide well articulated answers to the following questions in a paragraph each. What do you think the OOC purpose of a Head of Staff is, ingame? The OOC purpose of a head of staff is mainly to help the round progress. A head of staff, whether it's an operations manager, a chief medical officer, or a captain, is usually a high priority for antagonist interactions, and they are expected to facilitate this roleplay, and integrate it into the round if possible. They also encourage interaction between departments, so that it's not just 'sec vs antag' or 'ops vs bounties' or whatever you want to see it as. What do you think the OOC responsibilities of Whitelisted players are to other players, and how would you strive to uphold them? The responsibilities to other players primarily include being the first point of contact for any advice, or teaching newer players how to play department-specific roles. Whilst this is done via in character methods, there is still the OOC expectation that they will be there to help and guide, like a mentor. Another responsibility includes helping roleplay progress, and helping rounds vary from each other, as there's many things a head of staff can do that a regular employee cannot. For example, Chief Engineers are the ones permitted to make/authorise more impactful changes to the ship, such as turning the vacant office into a minor medical extension or whatever realistic thing they can think of. Explain how the recent events in the Spur changed your character and how they came to be employed on the SCCV Horizon. Rajiya Majidi, born Heather Augustin is from Qamar Azraq, on New Suez, so she was exposed to the various foreign corporations in Elyra from a young age. Her parents are both Non-Citizen Persons, though have lived in Elyra for 2 generations, struggled to hold a job, causing them to constantly move around New Suez, where rent was cheap, and employment was at least bearable. As soon as she was old enough, she adopted the name 'Rajiya' to further assimilate into Elyran Culture, and married into an Elyran Citizen's family, solely to secured herself a stable residence, and a less foreign surname. Her parents-in-law paid for a college tuition in a local Idris-hosted college, catering to NCPs, set up so that Idris would have a steady stream of less than minimum wage, but hopefully loyal workers. There, she studied, and graduated with a bachelors in accounting & finance, being pushed into a contract with Idris Incorporated, and sent off away from her family to wherever Idris wanted her. This employment was not stable, and she found herself scraping the barrel from time to time, still only barely able to get by with support from her husband's family. She performed well enough, and, within ten years, was assigned as a team manager at an Idris branch on Persepolis, another five, and she managed the branch itself. She was now making enough money to afford rent at her own place, without support from her husband's family, which she cut all ties with. Still under the threat of termination should Idris find someone better for the role, and now with no family to support her, Rajiya pushes herself beyond her limits, taking additional duties just so that she might be noticed, and forwarded for promotion, which eventually she is. She's transferred to the SCCV Horizon as an executive officer, but she's still at risk as an NCP with little rights, and so is still pushing herself further than she should. What roles do you plan on playing after the application is accepted? Executive Officer, and Consular (if I pass the trial period.) Have you familiarized yourself with the wiki pages for the command roles? Yes Characters you intend to use for command or have created for command. Include the job they will be taking: Rajiya Majidi, Executive Officer Potentially a Consular Character that I haven't made yet. Do you understand your whitelist is not permanent, and may be stripped following continuous administrative action? Yes Have you linked your BYOND account to the Forums? It should be linked! Extra notes: Hi!

Hi! Very sorry for the delay, I only just noticed this. Your questions have given me some things to think on, too, which is always welcome! Behaviours can be influenced by programming, behavioural cores, directives, or simply by observing, and copying, those around them, as a constant means of improving, and thus increasing their means of self preservation. It may also be influenced by their occupation, though this would fall into the last point. IPCs, like any other sentient being, will adapt to the culture of those that surround them, as a means of blending in, or to develop themselves, or to stay alive. From what I've seen, IPCs have the luxury of picking and choosing certain aspects of cultures that would better suit their survival, though this would vary from individual to individual, such as an Eridanian IPC adapting to the fast-paced business culture by becoming a greedy, morally bankrupt, ambitious asshole - as long as their profits are assured, so is their survival. Chukar, as I've mentioned, was kept somewhat confined - they rarely left the Khoudary's estate, and when they did, it was usually with the Khoudarys, on holidays, and such. This means that they are were not entirely used to the concept of romance, the 'affair' in itself lasted just under a year, though, over time, Chukar learnt from the behaviors exhibited by Qismat & Ruya whilst they were together, and then the same behaviours shown by Ruya on Chukar, when Qismat was away. They did eventually deduce that it was a romantic relationship (which is why I note the affair had only been ongoing for 'several months', as this is how long Chukar knew it was romantic). Chukar did not know about the consequences - they grew to trust Qismat (her legal owner), and his family, and thought they were part of it. They had no concept of infidelity until they were punished for it, either. The relationship was kept hidden, though by Ruya, not Chukar - Chukar was still new to romance, and basically just playing along. At first, Chukar didn't know if what they were experiencing was love for Ruya, or just acting in the best interests of the family, though this feeling very slowly grow into genuine love, but was unfortunately cut short, as it was discovered. The feelings didn't stop, and Chukar has been left with a feeling of longing, which is a factor that plays into their current reclusiveness. During the affair, Chukar was definitely treated better by Ruya, with lesser restrictions, something Chukar didn't realise, as it happened slowly, over a large period of time. 9 years of captivity would drive anyone mad unless they, like Chukar, were born into it. Chukar doesn't believe they were a captive, as they have no idea of life outside of the family. They know of Elyra, what it represents, and its culture, but their entire existence, and perceived-purpose was the Khoudarys, and serving them. They are not used to large crowds, or different people, or even making friends - even though they're a social unit. They feel more like a dog with a personality, Chukar wasn't treated like a pet but definitely a sort of 'You are family, but you are not one of us' feeling (not what it felt like to Chukar, but you guys get the point), until later on during the affair of course. So Chukar was used to the kindness shown, and grew complacent with it, thinking it was given as a right, not a privilege. Which was a shock when they were taken out of this loving, caring home that they knew for all of her life up until then, and placed into a 'kennel', with many other 'dogs' from many different backgrounds, and quickly shipped off to a new 'family', where they're poorly mistreated, and desperately wish for anything at all to change it for the better. Chukar is currently unbelievably stressed - though I will elaborate on this on the next question, as it largely ties together. Their current behaviour is largely influenced by their recent acquisition by Kingston Hawk - as mentioned in the last paragraph, it's like being taken out of your comfort zone, and being dropped without a parachute into an active volcano. The stress caused by that is putting a great strain on their hardware, and capacity to function, and they will urgently need to find a way to negate this, or their service to Kingston Hawk will be a very short one. Due to this, they're very closed off, not wanting to strain what is left of their sanity - focussed on work, and survival and thats pretty much it. For those that do manage to get close to them (which will still be a very difficult thing to do), they'll be a very quiet individual, speaking only when required, or to make reports. They will slowly improve over time, adapting to their situation, but this will take a while, a few months perhaps - But they will forever be affected by their sudden change in circumstance. They will also have roleplayed equipment failures, induced by overworking, as well as wear and tear, if roleplay opportunities present themselves. Of course, because of the fact that parts for this series are only made, this will be a rather expensive conundrum for Chukar - Will they slowly replace parts with cheaper ones that Kingston Hawk supplies, or will they go into debt buying expensive replacements? That's also something I'd wish to roleplay out. Chukar will act as a Gardener - it was one of their most performed secondary chores (duties) in service of the Khoudarys, and, obviously, there is no 'friend' in game job (As evidenced by the fact Aurora players have no friends- wait, that's just me, nevermind). The Khoudarys estate was quite large (They were able to afford a brand new high-end IPC, of course they have a mansion), with a decent garden that required several hours of care every week, for the 9 years Chukar was there. Chukar considers themself a Muslim, albeit, they aren't a very good one - having only been exposed to the more common, and slightly more liberal, elements of Islam that are commonly seen at home. This would include the daily prayers, the various periods of fasting, and other smaller things, such as dietary requirements. Quick correction for you, they aren't a shell - the early RS series were Osman's version of Bishop Accessory models, only changing to Shell-style frames as of the RS6s and in-prototype RS7s, and Chukar's an RS4 (absolutely useless piece of information there but, might be interesting so why not!) Yes, Islam is a very widespread religion, and isn't just limited to Elyra - it's just that Elyra (likely) is home to, by far, the majority of Muslims in the spur - but is also a Secular state. If Chukar was in a Muslim household on Biesel, or Xanu, or anywhere else, they would be much the same, belief-wise, minus the local variations in religious practice, of course. Sorry if I've missed the point of the questions, or my answers haven't come across clearly, but it's 07:00 and I started writing this at 05:30(ish)... and I was tired when I started lol!

Or: LforLouise is just a woman whose circumstances went beyond her control BYOND Ckey: LforLouise Discord username: louiseisnthome Character names: Ayishah Al-Ghazzawi - Cook Haniyah Sultan - New Security Officer Kais Kaebi - New Bartender Nesrine Issawi - Retired Bridge Crew(wo)man Zara Ismat - Retired Engineer Species you are applying to play: IPC ------------------------------ General Whitelist Requirements Have you read the lore pages for the species you wish to be whitelisted for?: Yes 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 species?: I would like to expand my horizons (no pun intended), and experiment with concepts for different species. IPC is the only other species with lore relating to Elyra (except for NCPs), so it would be fun, and somewhat easier, to play a species from a faction that I'm already familiar with, and enjoy playing. What makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a human?: Whilst IPCs and humans are very similar in a lot of regards - such as the fact they were created by humans in the first place, and therefor take a lot from the various cultures - they vary in a lot of ways too. IPCs in the spur are subject to debate, primarily regarding civil rights, and their influence on society. Due to this and other factors, there's a great deal of discrimination against IPCs (though its not something I often see in game) - you will have to work to incorporate this into your characters, how they act around other species, and cultures who may potential hate them due to various reasons, such as religion, because they need someone to hate, or even that many people perceive IPCs, owned or not, as scabs. IPCs are also computers - They do not do things without reason, even if their reason is poorly thought out, or may be contrary to their morals, if they even had morals to begin with. ------------------------------ Character Application Character Name: RS4-Chukar Write a backstory for your character. This may include their origin, education, personality and how they arrived to the SCCV Horizon. RS4-Chukar is a member of the 'Renaissance Series 4' line of IPCs produced by Osman Electric Industries in Turaif, on Medina. The series is a successor to the 'RS3, RS2 & RS1' lines, which were OEI's take on the Bishop Accessory frames, with the RS1s first seeing production in 2446, though are effectively extinct, much like the RS2s. RS3s were a slight improvement in 2450, but are also in a rapid decline, as newer series start to become popular. This isn't to say that RS4s are cutting edge, however. RS4s first entered production in April of 2456, finishing upon the release of the RS5s in 2459, of which have also ceased production in favour of the newer Shell-style RS6s, released in 2462. Throughout the various iterations of the many RS IPCs, two things stay the same, that is their intended purpose, and their naming scheme: All RS models, from the very first RS1, to the prototype RS7s, were designed to be social units, meant to be bought by wealthy private owners. They were most often bought to be used as partners to lonely businessmen, or as a friend to a rich parent's child, or even as a receptionist in a high-class hotel. The units were often able to perform other, menial tasks if required, such as cleaning, gardening, bartending, and cooking. RS models also shared a trend, their names being that of animals RS3s were species of reptiles, RS4s were species of bird, RS5s were marine animals. The trend was broken by the RS6s, who receive common Elyran names after their series number, it is also suspected that the upcoming RS7s will also receive Elyran names. Due to their age, replacement parts for RS4s are few and far between, often having to be ordered specially at a high expense. If the owner could not afford the parts, it was/is commonplace to simply replace the missing part with one from a newer model, as OEI sold them cheaper - a way to get people to simply scrap their old models, and buy the new ones. RS4-Chukar, specifically, was manufactured on the 16th of March 2457, at the request of high-ranking Elyran Army officer 'Qismat Khoudary' upon the outbreak of the Lii'draic incursion on Bursa. Qismat was married, with 2 sons, so RS4-Chukar was intended to help around the house, and be a friend to his wife 'Ruya Khoudary' and their children, when he was away from home on operations, training, and various other events - which he often was, especially during the incursion. RS4-Chukar was designed to have a more feminine appearance, voice, and mannerisms so that Ruya would not develop romantic feelings for the unit. RS4-Chukar served the family until early in 2466, where Qismat discovered that RS4-Chukar had, ironically, been in a romantic affair with his wife for several months. RS4-Chukar was immediately sold off to an auctioneer, and was then auctioned at a relatively low price to 'Kingston Hawk' - a Biesellite individual who can only be described as an IPC Farmer. Kingston Hawk's primary way of making money is to purchase cheap, or old IPC models, and put them to work wherever he can find a paying job for them, collecting a large portion of their income, to reinvest into more IPCs. Kingston Hawk owns around 15 IPCs, though the number is slowly, but constantly increasing. He treats his IPCs poorly, leaving them with enough money to maintain themselves, and a little more for their own spending. His IPCs memories are never wiped as he believes that the experiences, and memories they've made with their previous owners will encourage, or maybe torture them to work harder. RS4-Chukar is afforded the luxury of being the IPC furthest away from Kingston Hawk, giving them an inch of freedom. RS4-Chukar is, however, required under threat of destruction, to write and send weekly reports, detailing everything they've done, these reports often take several hours to write, but Kingston Hawk sees them as a necessity to keep his 'IPC Farm' running smoothly. RS4-Chukar was, until recently, a relatively normal social unit. However, due to being pulled away from the family they developed fondness for, has started to become more reclusive, realising they are a slave, rather than a member of a family. They long for the freedom they once had in service of the Khoudary family, only now acknowledging how easily their life had been. They want to obtain their freedom, but they know that it will be impossible to obtain, primarily because of their current owner, but also because their realisations have reduced their motivations to ash - the only reason they still work, is because they fear death. How has the recent events of the Orion Spur impacted your character? RS4-Chukar, already in isolationist-Elyra, was kept further sheltered from spur-wide events and politics. Whilst they knew what was occurring in Elyra, including the Incursion around the time of their creation, they knew very little of the wider spur itself, until the departure from their family. Being moved out of Elyra, and thus removed from her sheltered comfort zone, able to read news of recent events, and learn of nations and peoples they had not even heard of before, took its toll on RS4-Chukar, It played a large part into who they've rapidly evolved into. The culture shock of learning about new species still has not sunk in yet, and they are unsure what to make of certain species (specifically non-liidra vaurca, but also diona, tajarans). Parts of her believes that her current situation is a punishment by whatever higher power there may be for pushing Ruya into infidelity - something which she still has mixed thoughts about. Their faith in the values they once held close to them - family, compassion, among others - have been shaken, and they must find new ones to rely on. How does your character view the megacorporation they work for? Kingston Hawk, being who he is, obviously does not care for how his IPCs are treated, so long as they are able to work, and provide him with money. For this reason, he finds the highest paying contracts that his IPCs are capable of performing, even if the IPCs are put into risky, or potentially life threatening positions. RS4-Chukar doesn't know this, as they are not in contact with the various other IPCs Hawk owns. They view Nanotrasen simply as an extension of Hawk, and the perceived-torture that Hawk is inflicting upon them.

+1 Easily one of the best people on this server, no exceptions. It's always fun interacting with their characters, and I think they would totally ace this.
