[Accepted] Dark1Star's Unathi Whitelist Application


Recommended Posts

BYOND Key: Dark1Star

Character Names: https://i.imgur.com/NEEaOWa.png

Species you are applying to play: Unathi

What color do you plan on making your first alien character (Dionaea & IPCs exempt): Dark Blue

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: Right now, I play the IPC race a lot, basically all the time, and rarely a human. I was looking for a new race to play, and after reading all the Overviews, Mechanics and a little bit of each races history. I feel like Unathi will be the next race I should try out. After reading their history, I like the idea of how they are a clan based species, which could really lead to some fun in-game IC troubles. They can also be many heads of staff roles, discarding the captain of course.

Identify what makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a Human: The Personality of a Unathi is different for one, their way of showing there feelings is different, relying a lot more on physical interactions, tail, hissing etc etc. they also rely on a code of honour which is also interesting and I would like to see more of the code of honour stuff. Their speech patterns also make up for some interesting IC implications.

 



Character Name: Karthis Tarryk

Please provide a short backstory for this character, approximately 2 paragraphs Karthis Tarryk, is a Unathi born on, 2438, during the Contact War. His father died a year later, when the Atomic Exchange took place. They never found out what exactly happened to his father, he was set as Missing In Action, but he was presumed dead. His mother looked after him during the war, and like most Unathi during the war, a place to live was always a problem. Living in a poor condition throughout the war like a lot of Unathi during the war was hard. Managing to scrounge up the food needed and having to move multiple times because of all the conflict, all the way until the end of the war.

A few years later after the war, when he was old enough to go out on his own, he became a raider. Working as a crew-member on a small raiding ship, helping about with the ships security and maintaining some of its systems. During the day was en-route to their camp hideout area, they were boarded by a rival raider. Karthis watched his entire crew get slaughtered, he wanted to help but hid in a locker hoping he was not found, but they searched the entire ship and found him. He was kept alive by their rivals to warn others about them and tell their tails. After leaving the life of a Raider, Karthis managed to use the money he had to get as far away from his old life as much as he could, eventually he got a job on the Aurora station.


What do you like about this character? I like his name, it sounds cool and easy to say. I also like the idea of the fact that he is no "snow-flake". He never had it easy, he always had a hard life all the way until he joined the aurora station. Since he was a raider, he has some combat skills that usually a normal crew-member would not have, mostly close combat. Being a raider also makes for good stories at the bar, if he ever chooses to tell them of course.


How would you rate your role-playing ability? Personally, my role-playing ability, from my point of view at least, is a 6/10. I am not the best at role-playing, rarely I will go off-character, depending on what is actually happening around the station, stress levels and all that. It also depends on how late it is, I stay up late a lot sometimes, like to 3am or later. I have heard from others my role-playing ability is quite good, I play D&D a lot but I suppose that is different.



Notes: Thanks to Lord Regentess Sleepy, for helping me with the backstory. I would also like to add, yes I am not the best role-player, sometimes I make mistakes, sometimes too many. But I am still learning as a role-player.

I'm not so sure you grasp the present rules to warrant further whitelists.

Picture appears to have failed to load.


EDIT: Manage to get it to load. Yes, that was a mistake I made. I apologised for it. I even re-read the rules after that. Just to make sure I did not do it again.

I'd like to hear more about the religion of your Unathi! And maybe any past-times or ideals he has, if any. And, which side of the war your character is from, or feels is the right choice.

Because he was born during the contact war, and not before, he grew up following his mothers opinion on things, his religion is Akhanzi Order as that's what his mother follows and taught her son to follow. As he grew up, he also learned about other religions and does not particularly frown upon other religions and often supports other peoples ideals. Believing that if people want to believe in what the believe in, they can. But dislikes it when other people try to push their ideals, and openly discuss other religions badly.


His mother always told him how the Izweski Hegemony were the good guys and the Traditionalist Coalition were the bad guys. Even if he did not understand them at a young age. When the war was almost over, he was old enough to understand the terrible things that the war did to the people and the planet. Though he hated what happened, he believes the Izweski were right. They were trying to support the Unathi with new technology from Nanotrasen and the Skrell.
