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 find the Unathi honour code interesting; none of the other races, from what I can see, have such a widespread ideal amongst them; I think it would be fun and interesting to play out a character that is trying to adapt this mode of thought to a different environment, especially in that it treats women as property; which my character finds confusing.

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

They have different physical requirements; they might turn up the thermostat in their workplace, to the discomfort of humans and Tajara also working there; they also have a different train of thought to the others; or at least, it is common for them to, with the honour code throughout their culture.

Why does this species in particular hold your interest?

They have an apparently, very low technology culture; I find it interesting thinking about what sort of blowback discovering interplanetary technology must have had on their culture, I would imagine it is similar to third world countries today, with mopeds and Ipods running alongside ancient buildings and traditional carriages and entertainment.

Character Name: Oras Nevros

Please provide a short backstory for this character, approximately 2 paragraphs

Oras Nevros was born on Moghes in the year 2414; in the city of Urastar. Oras was born into the clan Nevros, the son of a labourer, Trasid Nevros, and Yasi Nevros, along with his twin sister, Pasri.

Throughout his upbringing, Oras was always treated better than his sister; while he was educated as well as his father’s funds would allow, his sister was kept at home; working with their mother, performing various menial tasks around the clan holdings.

Oras learned quickly, his class learning under the tutelage of one of the more acclaimed Unathi professors in the city; assisted by a retired “Human”, who encouraged the students to develop their free-thinking, urging them at every step to push harder and be more enterprising with their projects.

At the age of nineteen, Oras graduated from his class with a high level certificate; along with his professor’s verification, he qualified to be taught in an off-world university in experimental physics; however, the catch was that he had to put down a large amount of capital to secure his place; capital which he didn’t have.

His father, Trasid, put down the deposit; gifting Oras an amount of money that he never knew his father possessed.

It was during his final goodbyes to his family, that he learned where the money had come from; his sister was not present. When Oras pressed the matter; his mother and father admitted that the money for his education had come from his sister’s dowry; during his absence at school, his sister had been put into an arranged marriage with a local tribe Alpha; and had been moved out of the city.

Stricken with grief, Oras left his family home immediately, and never returned; heading for the university; determined that his sister’s money would not go to waste, and that he would, once he earned enough, buy her back.

At the university, Oras put all his effort into his work, neglecting all else in his drive to be the best. He earned his degrees at the age of thirty two; a degree in hypothetical physics and chemical engineering; putting him in good stead when he applied for a job aboard one of Nanotrasen’s prestigious space stations.

What do you like about this character?

He is trying to adapt the Unathi honour code to work in a different environment, while trying his hardest to keep his job and not offend anyone important; he would likely be very confused and conflicted about a female Head giving him instructions, as he has been brought up with women being treated as property, even though he doesn’t agree with that, seeing them treated as equals will undoubtedly confuse him.

How would you rate your role-playing ability? 7/10 Depends on the character; I would say with Whisper and Amy 8/10

I had to think for a bit to answer the third question, because it seems so similar to the first.

Had the same question go through my head while making my IPC app. Kind of redundant, but you don't question anything staff do I'm sure it has a reason to be there.

Anyway, I support this app, Gollee is an excellent RPer and a good writer.
