Suno Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 -->Please forgive bad spelling, English is not my native langauge.<-- BYOND Key: SunoPerson Character Names: S.Y.S.T.E.M (Borg/AI character), Tony York (Security officer), Chris Glover (Engineer/Miner), Elena Beach (phsyciatrist), Olivia Cook, (Biochemist/Cook) Species you are applying to play: IPC/Integrated Positronic Chassis What color do you plan on making your first alien character: N/A. Im applying for IPC Have you read our lore section's page on this species?: Yes, How else would i know how cool IPC lore was? 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: Im sure has been said one hundred times in these applications but I love roleplaying robotic charracters and synths. And I think the roleplay opportunities while playing IPC which could provide for some fun roleplay for me and others, and their backstory and interesting place in society are interesting to me. Identify what makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a Human: Firstly their cold and calculating nature. They have a completley different way of thinking than humans, They think mostly logically and dont tend to be affected by emotions as much. And of course their robotic anatomy, With servos and motors instead of muscles and tendons, Which could provide for some unique challenges while on EVA. Character Name: Roman-882 Please provide a short backstory for this character Roman was originally built for a busy central hospital as a surgeon IPC. Roman wasnt very happy with his job, Altough he liked the work the employees there were treating him like a glorified roomba, Roman quite frankly was fed up, He began becoming more and more bitter to humans altough he didnt show it due to fear of dismantling. After a few years of saving and a few "Small" loans he managed to buy his own freedom and amount a small debt to some less than reputable individuals. He started working for NT almost immediatley to pay off his debts, Adopting a cynical and sarcastic personality, Much to the dismay of his patients. What do you like about this character? I enjoy the rags to riches story, And the fact that he quite possibly has a few debts to some shady people. And of course his sarcastic and cynical personality, I find it quite funny. How would you rate your role-playing ability? I wouldnt say im the best roleplayer, but i wouldnt call my roleplay "bad" I'd say between 6/10 to 7/10 Notes: I plan to make several IPC characters for different jobs. Such as one for robotics.

Zer0Winds Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 Okay. So, the only interactions with you I remember are SYSTEM. They weren't negative, and one of the times I was asleep in surgery the entire time. But you saved me, and didn't wordlessly do so either. So, I can say that your Stationbound play is not bad, from what I witness. I can not say anything about your backstory, since my first app was an IPC, and it wasn't very good, so I can't really judge any IPC story now. I can't really say if this is a good application or not, so, I will leave my two cents here and let others do the judging for me. Link to comment
Suno Posted February 22, 2020 Author Share Posted February 22, 2020 (edited) Identify what makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a Human: IPC's have a completley different tought process than humans, In that they tend to be very logical and to the point in their tought and speech patterns. An IPC's highest directive is self preservation, Wich fits with their logical tought process. They tend to be heavily discriminated against due to their odd nature. They also tend to stick to the job they were made for, Since they have such a linear tought process. They dont tend to be affected by emotions as much. Please provide a short backstory for this character : Roman started life at Hephaestus Production Station Sidirourgeío as any other baseline chassis would, He was assigned the Tag "Roman-882" and was sold of to a small clinic, Over the years he was shipped between several small hospitals and clinics, Spending time working as a surgeon and a doctor. After three years of working between different clinics and hospitals he was sold off to Mendell city Central hospital, He worked at the hospital for several years, Becoming more bitter and sarcastic over the years due to the mistreatment from staff he recived, after a few months of doing odd jobs here and there for patients, Such as getting candy or buying something from the store. And when word got out that he was trying to save up money for freedom he was approached by some less than reputable individuals who asked if he wanted to borrow some money for buying freedom, Roman of course agreed to borrow some money, He had just enough money for legal fees and his own fees, About 1.5 million credits, and when he finally managed to get free he owed 1.6 million credits to the people he borrowed money from, So the recently freed roman set off to work on the NSS aurora, Where he is still to this day trying to work of his debt.

TealPinniped Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 An overall good player, I'll give him a vote of confidence. Link to comment
niennab Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 Thank you for expanding on the application. I like the idea of an IPC indebted to loan sharks however I think it needs tweaking. Reasonably speaking a bank or a loan shark likely wouldn't hand that many credits to effectively a slave. Although if you make your IPC much older, therefore they would have paid into purchasing their freedom more overtime (reducing the loan required), a loan shark is viable. Consider that maybe an incident urged Roman to take action and acquire his freedom sooner. Otherwise, although miserable, Roman might not have a reason to in-debt himself to questionable people. Nonetheless, I did a bit of digging and for players who are relatively new to the server (excluding the few rounds you've played in the past), the bar for white-list applications is much higher. Keep in mind that the backstory needs to be two paragraphs as well. I will deny your application on the basis of playtime and a lack of information for now but you are free to apply in two weeks. You may apply with the same character although I recommend the changes or suggestions above. Link to comment
