Owen

I recently worked with Edgar during a shift as a Lab Assistant. The way he handled teaching her all of the basics of science was very professional. I think he Roleplay is good enough that he deserves this application.

I support getting a better lore for the Diona. It just feels empty compared to the other races.

Yep... Catcurity is a thing now. A sad, sad thing.

I think that this is a really cool idea and that the Vox lore should be expanded.

BYOND key:YouJustGotOwened Character names:Ri'Kistae Sahir, Aefia Vitellia, One Who Walks With Rain. (There are a few others that I don't play anymore) How long have you been playing on Aurora?:Since early June Why do you wish to be on the whitelist?:Becuase I feel like I am ready to help newer players, and that can be achieved through a head role. Also I feel like this whitelist can help further my roleplaying abilities. Why did you come to Aurora?:I was tired of the LRP servers that I used to play on (Hippie) so I went through the server list and tried out a few HRP servers like Hypatia. I found these extended only servers to be too slow so I joined Aurora and I have been playing on the server ever since. Have you read the BS12 wiki on the head roles you plan on playing?: Yes Please provide well articulated answers to the following questions in a paragraph each. Give a definition of what you think roleplay is, and should be about: Roleplaying is basically you the player taking over someones role in life. It can be close to what you are doing in real life or, as different as you living the life of a tree. It should be enjoyable to everyone involved and it should be something that you could use to relax and take you away from the stresses of real life. What do you think the OOC purpose of a Head of Staff is, ingame?: I think that the OOC purpose of a head of staff is to keep a stable roleplay enviorment and to help others be roleplay corrrectly. Considering the Head of Staff managed to get a whitelist I think that they should be the kind of player that know right from wrong (IE. not welderbombing the escape shuttle). They should be a player that others can trust and be able to ask them questions if they aren't sure how to do something. What do you think the OOC responsibilities of Whitelisted players are to other players, and how would you strive to uphold them?:Since a Head of Staff is what they are. People hold them to a higher standered than other players. People expect them to have the ability to keep the roleplay interesting and moving. I would try to uphold this by having my characters be as realistic as possible and have them seem like real people. I would keep my characters from being too mean to anyone person and I would make them seem like leaders. I would keep them from being flat characters by adapting my roleplay aprropriatly to the situation. Please pick one of your characters for this section, and provide well articulated responses to the following questions. Character name:Ri'Kistae Sahir Character age:31 Please provide a short biography of this character (approx 2 paragraphs): Kistae was born into the dying Sahir family back on Adhomai. When Kistae was still very young her parents were killed. Because of this Kistae was sent away to live with her cousins in a town off of Mendell City on Biesel. Her cousin who she looked up to very much worked for the local law enforcement. She was always interested in what her cousin was doing so when she was old enough she applied and was accepted into a prestigious university in Mendell City. While she was there she studied law and trained to be in the security force. Eventually Kistae graduated from the university with a masters degree and was hired by nanotrasen. Her first workplace was at the NSS Odin where she completed her year long cadet-ship and was taught the correct ways to manage prisoners. About five years into her working on the NSS Odin she was transferred to the Aurora Research Station. There she worked for six more years. During her tenth year working for NanoTrasen they promoted her to Brig Warden. While she was a warden Kistae went through training to become a HoS incase of emergencies. After a while she decided to apply for a promotion to HoS. What do you like about this character?: I like that her life on Biesel influenced her to what she wanted to be. What do you dislike about this character?: I don't like that I didn't really flesh her out that much. I have many ideas in my head about what she is but never can really put them into words. What do you think makes this character fit to be a head of staff?: I think that she is fit to be a head of staff becuase she gets the job done when she needs to but isn't overly harsh. Please provide well articulated answers to the following questions. How would you rate your own roleplaying?:I would rate my roleplay 8/10 I have been roleplaying for a while now but I always learn new ways to improve. Extra notes:

If you mean between Tajara, I do believe that they are broken up by race in their society. One race is viewed largely as nobles, one as workers, and so on. If you mean between humans and Tajara, there are different levels of profiling between the two groups. Distrust, caution, and other such themes are fairly evident between the Tajara as well as between different species. This was a while ago when I made this application but I am thinking this was about Tajara not being racist to other species. Also I have discontinued my Augotta character due to my bad RP with her.The reason for me acting like that is it was from when I just came over from Hippie Station so I wasn't used to the whole HRP concept. My two new main characters are Aefia Vitellia and One Who Walks With Rain. Sorry for the bad experiences that you had with Augotta.

Cobracoco is a super good arpeer and he would be fine with having this role.

Okay I fixed it... I can't believe I have been reading those dates wrong. Thanks for letting me know!

I like all of Senpai's characters and I like his roleplay. I am sure he could handle playing a Skrell.

Also if you could try to keep things from being too negative

BYOND Key: YouJustGotOwened Character Names: Aefia Vitellia, Tiber Vitellia, Augotta Sibarick, Kylie NewWood, Chiyoko Katsuro and One Who Walks With Rain Species you are applying to play: Tajaran What color do you plan on making your first alien character (Dionaea & IPCs exempt): A cinnamon color Have you read our lore section's page on this species?: 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 specific race: I enjoyed reading the Tajaran history and about how they were ruled by a noble family for so long. Also I like a lot of the Tajaran characters in the game and wanted to try to replicate their roleplay ability. Identify what makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a Human: Tajaran are different roleplay wise because you are able to have their history influence your character and you roleplay as one of the different groups of Tajaran. It is also different becaue the Tajaran are very social and have no problem with same sex relationships and have almost no racism whatsoever. Character Name: Ri’Kistae Sahir Please provide a short backstory for this character, approximately 2 paragraphs Ri’Kistae Shair was born into the remnants the Sahir family back on Adhomai. When Kistae was still very young her parents were murdered by a lesser family trying to gain power. Because of this unfortunate event Kistae was sent off world escape the hands of the assassins and to live with her cousins on Bisel in the Tau Ceti system. Her cousins worked for NanoTrasen and raised Kistae in the capital Mendell City. When Kistae turned 17 she was given the title of Ri which in her family meant that they were the leader of the clan. On her 21st birthday she was hired by NanoTrasen to work on the NSS Odin. Later that year Kistae was transferred to the NSS Aurora to help the research station function. What do you like about this character? I liked that she was born into one of the lesser families of the Njarir’Akhran and about how her parents were murdered by another family trying to gain power. I am excited to see how this will effect her ability to trust other Njarir’Akhran. How would you rate your role-playing ability? 8/10 I feel like my roleplay ability has improved immensely since I started playing here. But there is always room for improvement. Notes:

Also another character that I have been playing recently is Chiyoko Katsuro.

BYOND Key:YouJustGotOwened Character Names:Augotta Sibarick Species you are applying to play:Dionaea What color do you plan on making your first alien character (Dionaea & IPCs exempt):Character is exempt Have you read our lore section's page on this species?:Yes, Quite a bit actually 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: Because from the Short amount of time that I have been playing on the server, the race that stood out to me for people having the most fun roleplay wise were the Dionaea. I also like that the Dionaea are very curious and considered one of the more peaceful races. Plus the fact that they are freaking intelligent plants is very cool to me. Identify what makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a Human: What makes roleplaying the Dionaea so different from Humans is that the Dionaea are plants that can’t feel the same sort of emotions that we do, so they end up trying to emulate our emotions so they are able to fit in. I think displaying this attribute of them constantly trying to learn in-game would be very interesting. Character Name: One Who Walks With Rain Over The Hills And Into The Valleys (Walks With Rain for short) Please provide a short backstory for this character, approximately 2 paragraphs When Walks With Rain was a wee Nymph she was alone wandering around a non-important planet. She eventually made her way to a Human colony and was taken into by said Humans. She lived along with three Humans whose names do not matter. But they treated her like family and nurtured her until she collected enough blood and became ready to gestalt. When Walks With Rain finally evolved into an adult Humanoid Dionaea she said her farewells to the family that treated her so well (and not soon to forget their kindness) and went out into the world. She walked through the land across hill and in the rain.(She thought the name that this was very poetic hence the name) When Dionaea arrived at a spaceport she was offered a spot on a shuttle to a station. The stations name that is important. NSS Aurora, She accepted the offer and traveled to the station. When Dionaea arrived on the NSS Aurora she was greeted into loving arms and given a job and a fancy name tag.(The HoP who wrote the name tag had to retire due to ruined fingers) When all was said and done she had becoming a very curious Dionae with a loving “personality” and many friends in her new home. What do you like about this character? I loved writing her backstory and her adventure to get where she is now. Plus I love the idea of having a very kind and curious character that is different from boring old Humans. How would you rate your role-playing ability? I would say that my roleplaying ability would be a solid 8/10. Notes:
