Jboy's Second Whitelist Attempt.

[Jboy2000000]

BYOND key: Jboy2000000

Character names: Jason Boyd (Now ERT only), Dandy Azoth/Mann, James Reaper, Jack Sullivan (Dead), Vadim Gorski, Heinrich Adler, Charlie Robinson, Ajmal Hamud, Miracle Kifer, Ryder Pratt, Jackson Sullivan, Alisa Keener, Damon Sloan, Elisa Keener (Future Character.)

How long have you been playing on Aurora?: Five-Six Months.

Why do you wish to be on the whitelist?: To fill the ever so commonly needed yet rarely filled position of CMO, to keep medbay in line, and hopefully keep IC ethics in check.

Why did you come to Aurora?: It was pure chance, none of the servers seemed to be working when I first downloaded BYOND, and Aurora was the first to work. I just stuck with it after that.

Have you read the BS12 wiki on the head roles you plan on playing?:Yes

Please provide well articulated and argumented answers to the following questions in a paragraph each.

Give a definition of what you think roleplay is, and should be about:Roleplay, simply put, is about playing a rule you've give yourself. More than anything it should be about enjoying what you do, without making it less enjoyable for others. That being said, being a head roleplay is important, so you need to act maturely as them.

What do you think the OOC purpose of a Head of Staff is, ingame?:The purpose of a head of staff is to make sure the staff under them work smoothly, and that if something goes awry they can work together with each other to resolve the situation in the best was possible.

What do you think the OOC responsibilities of Whitelisted players are to other players, and how would you strive to uphold them?:Setting a mark as others who want to play better or advance to heads themselves. I got to the point where I thought I was ready to be a head myself from watching, observing and learning from heads. I hope that I can live up to the people Ive observed by doing my best as a head and hopefully setting good examples for others.

Please pick one of your characters for this section, and provide well articulated responses to the following questions.

Character name: Alisa Keener

Character age: 33

Please provide a short biography of this character (approx 2 paragraphs):

She was born on Luna, to a married family with one missionary father and a mother in marines. For the first fives years of her life, her father taught her his religious believes, but in doing so ended up in the hospital every year on her birthday with water toxicity, caused by drinking to much holy water to celebrate another year of life. When she turned five, it stopped when she started going to Catholic school. It was strict, but she seemed to enjoy going to school everyone day of the week, especially her biology and religious study classes. However, no matter how much she loved her classes, she still had to retake a two years, getting out only after she spent an extra two years there. After which she started to attend Biesel Institute of Medical Science, after two more years severing with her father's missionary group.

While she was in school, but before she started to go to medical school, she would go on the occasional trip with her father's missionary group, going to some of the less better off places around the galaxy, learning to love the species found around the station, and learning that just feeding people and giving them spiritual advice wasn't enough. People were getting sick and injured without proper medicine. Before she went to medical school, she started putting in hours in volunteer clinics whenever she went with her father. At first it was just grunt work, getting names, vitals, and doing paperwork, but eventually desperate people started letting her do more, take blood, treat open wounds, people died in her care, but she learned. The extra two failed years in school came from this, she was focused on wanting to help people in god's name so much, that she let her other classes fall through the gaps. After graduating, she continued on with doing missions for free, up until she couldn't because of costs. In an effort to keep helping people, she signed on with an unregistered trade vessel run out of border space, working as the sole medical personnel on board. That lasted up until the ship was seized for selling unregistered cargo. At that point no one would take her because of her fresh criminal record. Then she found Nanotrasen.

What do you like about this character?:Shes my first attempt at having a group of people who know each other IC. Not only that, but its nice to have someone who actually cares so much about paperwork (its more fun than you think), and acts like a real person in that she actually cares about karma, religious and ethics.

What do you dislike about this character?:Shes a bit timid, and she tends to respect heads more than others simply because they're a head, and that leads to situations where shes stuck kissing the boot of people people that don't deserve it, following orders without to much question.

Do you think this character is fit to be a Head of Staff? (Please note that Head characters must be over 30, unless given special clearance):Yes

Why?:Shes more than used to taking charge of people, even if is the injured of a small ship, and shes more than keen of making sure everything has its proper place, everything is there, and that paperwork is done and accounted for. Shes also had her own trial run as CMO, in a secret round where the station was attacked by "radical terrorists," and she handled herself well enough, earning no OOC scorn from those involved.

Please provide well articulated and argued answers to the following questions.

How would you rate your own roleplaying?:On a scale on 1-10, Id give myself an 8/10, because theres always more to work on, but I feel Im good, but 9 seems a little high, simply because I make a few to many spelling mistake than Id like to admit.

Extra notes: I also intend to use Alisa as an HoP, if permitted. I heard that some people are scolded for joins as HoP if their character is 'old enough' to know and use the correct paperwork.

I love role playing with this character. She has a fair amount of drama without being too snow flakee. It would be nice to watch her be CMO and all the hilarious things that will ensue.

+1

I support this App. It is nicely done and too me personally, Jboy has proven many times that they are an exceptional RPer, making a large variety of characters and making then shine in a bit snowflaky, but still realistic manner.

Jboy is a nice fellow, I fondly remember a round in which we were involved in an accidental traitor battle royale.

+1 from me.

Hi!

I have certain issues with your character.That issue being the fact that the character was held back four years (from what I'm picking up), is very overzealous (to the point where they sign up with complete strangers just to "HELP PEOPLE, GOD DEMANDS IT" there's religious silly like Haruspex, and then there's complete religious zealot like Alisa Keener), and was then working on an unregistered cargo ship that was then seized.

Now, I have a question: Is this going to be your CMO? Because if so, Alisa Keener is definitely not head of staff material.

Side note: I'm almost 100% sure holy water irl is just regular water... Where's the toxicity coming from? o.O

She didn't go with them because of the religious helping people reason, she just needed monkey, because what she did do religiously was work in free clinics, no pay, pretty much living off her father's belly for a time.

 

.That issue being the fact that the character was held back four years (from what I'm picking up)

Held back two years, and then a leap years after completing school, actually, then medical school.

 

Now, I have a question: Is this going to be your CMO? Because if so, Alisa Keener is definitely not head of staff material.

I was hoping so, but she doesn't need to the CMO, honestly Ive been wanting to play CMO for so long, Ill make another character all together if it helps get the whitelist through.

 

Side note: I'm almost 100% sure holy water irl is just regular water... Where's the toxicity coming from? o.O

Over saturation of cells, water drunkness, drinking to much water and basically drowning your cells cells from the inside. I don't know the official term for it, and water toxicity sounded like it fit better than 'water drunkness' there.

[Guest]

Water intoxication is a thing, your body's blood concentration begins to thin and your circulation gets a bit fucked up, but this only lasts for another few minutes before the body ejects it all out.

As a child, this would probably kill you, but eh, that could be amended.

Still, I think Keener, while being a hostile little shit, is still a viable candidate for a Head role. Provided she cuts down on the bitchiness and starts getting some sensitivity training.

Then there's you, breddah. You're pretty neat to roleplay with, and I've had fun chatting with you in OOC and in Skype. You're a cool dude and you treat people with respect.

I endorse this application, I hope it gets accepted.

[mrimatool]

Definitely a +1 from me, unique character.

[TishinaStalker]

Application approved.
