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 enjoy helping folks. I tend to play as PAIs or drones as a break from the more strenuous jobs on servers. I think playing as a childhood favorite insect that is very similar to a borg except for actually being alive would be of great fun. The varuca also seem a great amount of fun as they have the hive mind. I'm wanting to start as a bound to simply shift over from being a borg miner to a living miner. Well that is unless I'm ordered to do something else.
Identify what makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a Human:
Well besides the hive speech there is the fact you are a big old ant that wants to make his current hive have the best of whatever the last thing was told to either build or harvest. I could see easily reason to make a xenobotanist, Botanist, Shaft Miner or just science assistant which is basically what a Xenobotanist is. It was a coin flip between bound and unbound but I'd like to try bound out first to get a feel for them.
Character Name: Ka'Viax'Arcee Zo'ra
Please provide a short backstory for this character, approximately 2 paragraphs
Ka'Viax'Arcee Zo'ra is from the third hatching creche by the fifth lesser queen. After her binding she was marked for Aurora station something of a reward in a way due to it being the station that the Zo'ra first achieved contact with humans. She does however have a peculiar scar on her lower thorax from a Goliath she tangled with on her first mining expedition. She is a diligent worker like most of her kind though she seems to be unusually devoted to digging through the earth likely a genetic throw back to their races early origins on their homeplanet.
Since Ka'Viax'Arcee Zo'ra has been on the Aurora she has dug out four separate asteroids and has been put in the medbay over sixteen times by other non-human creatures that have appeared on board. But with a little rest in the medbay and some K'ois paste and off she goes again. She's found that if she hurries to the mining station the other non-humans enjoy the fruits of her labor and don't harras her, just like a real hive. Maybe one day she will be Ka'Viax'Arcee Aurora.
((Use of the word she or he is used instead of the word IT being used.))
What do you like about this character?
The idea of a worker ant digging through alien ground is rather amusing to me. Plus I would be a freaking space ant!
How would you rate your role-playing ability? I'm pretty average. There are times where I forget to pain roleplay though.
