[Accepted]Leudoberct Dionae Application

[Leudoberct]

BYOND Key: Leudoberct

Character Names: Xicic Riori, Ka’Akaix’Sgzi K’lax, Seebeck, Atepomarus, Daniel Pitchford

Species you are applying to play: Dionae

What color do you plan on making your first alien character: N/A

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 want to play as a Dionae due to the interesting form of existence that they have, and their ability to form larger forms by merging together. I also like the large amount of space available for their backstories, due to them being spread out all over the Orion Spur. The completely alien nature of them is also something that interests me in playing one.

 

Identify what makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a Human:

For a start, Dionae are a plant based lifeform. They exist in multiple different forms, with the most basic being the nymph, which is a singular consciousness. They are capable of merging with other nymphs to form a greater being, in varying sizes, with some being comprised only of six or so nymphs, and others of thousands.  When they form larger gestalts, they are often slower to act, due to having to have the consent of every nymph in the gestalt before performing an action.

 

Character Name: Branches of Flowing Life

Please provide a short backstory for this character:

Branches of Flowing Life was formed from a group of nymphs originating from the planet of Eden, in the Epsilon Ursae Minoris system. Each nymph that came to form the cyclops had already received multiple samples of blood from the Skrellian co-inhabitants of the planet, ensuring that communication between them was not an issue. Each nymph inherited a deep respect for life from its existence on the untouched planet, and after teachings from the Skrell inhabitants of the planet, came to learn how to tend for and mend the injuries of the Skrell inhabitants of  the planet, taking up a role akin to that of a doctor.

After hearing tales of the stars beyond from the Skrell on Eden, the gestalt reached a consensus: that they wished to explore the stars at large further. The gestalt left Eden on a Skrellian vessel, travelling first to the planet of Aliose. The gestalt struggled in the frigid conditions of the planet, but persevered, learning in the Aliose University of Medical Sciences a more refined wealth of medical knowledge, superior to the basic knowledge it had received in its experiences on Eden. After concluding their tutoring on Aliose, the gestalt once more left for the stars.

The gestalt spent time exploring Skrellian space, but soon heard tales of the rest of the galaxy at large, and the multitude of races that inhabited it. The gestalt decided that its knowledge of medicine should not include only that of the Skrell, and soon thereafter left Federation space. This lead the gestalt to a contract with NanoTrasen, taking them to the Tau Ceti system, where it was set to work on the NSS Aurora, learning more of the medical sciences.

 

What do you like about this character?

I like this character because it provides me with a way to introduce myself to two new things at once: Dionae roleplay, and also the new medical system that we’ve recently had integrated into the server. I feel like this character gives me a broad avenue to take when roleplaying on the station, rather than narrowing it down into one specific area.

 

How would you rate your role-playing ability?

I would say that I am a fairly decent roleplayer, and that I am able to roleplay different species to a good standard.

Besides you not bolding the questions, I really do believe that Leudoberct can create a detailed gestalt aboard the Aurora that others will look to and wish to join the diona family. I've known him for roughly nine months, and he has never given me an ounce of doubt regarding his high roleplaying ability.

 

a big +1 from me.

I will never bold the questions, you can't make me
