[ACCEPTED] Cinny wants to have a nice office

[CinnySuccubus]

BYOND key: CinnySuccubus

Character names: Adannaya Kayeda, and a bunch more that I don't play as much.

How long have you been playing on Aurora?: About a year.

Why do you wish to be on the whitelist?: Mostly because I almost never see a full command roster, particularly in the case of Representative and RD.

Why did you come to Aurora?: Because I wanted a server with a much higher standard of RP than the other servers I had been playing on.

Have you read the Aurora wiki on the head roles and qualifications you plan on playing?: Yes.

Have you received any administrative actions? And how serious were they? A couple of warnings, all expired. I have learned my lessons.

 

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

Give a definition of what you think roleplay is, and should be about: Roleplay is about using your interactions with other characters to tell a compelling and interesting story, with the goal of making sure everyone has had a good time and enjoyed themselves.

What do you think the OOC purpose of a Head of Staff is, ingame?: Heads of Staff exist to ensure a form of coherency, making sure everyone has a role to play and isn’t being neglected in any way. While being a sort of Mary Sue character is possible given the skillset, heads are more suited to teaching and delegation. Teamwork makes the dream work.

What do you think the OOC responsibilities of Whitelisted players are to other players, and how would you strive to uphold them?: Whitelisted players should be for teaching new players about mechanics and the server, both ICly and OOCly, as well as being a generally upstanding member of the Aurora community.

Could you give us the gist of what is currently happening in Tau ceti and how it affected your character and their career? In Adannaya’s case, the Warbling arc affected her most due to her close relationship with a Skrell, and her inherent respect for authority. She had no reason to believe that NT would lie to her about what was happening, and was somewhat torn when people were referring to her as a traitor for taking the side of NT and the Jargon Federation. The current cold war in Little Adhomai isn't currently affecting her, mostly due to her living nowhere near it in Mendell City, although she keeps abreast of the situation as much as any concerned citizen would with the news. Adannaya views NanoTrasen's overwhelming presence in Biesel as a good thing, because she is fiercely loyal to them. Additionally she is a bit of a ladder-climber, and if being supportive of a vaguely 1984-esque corporate monopoly will do that for her, so be it.

 

What roles do you plan on playing after the application is accepted? Probably all of them, but mostly RD.

Characters you intend to use for command or have created for command. Include the job they will be taking.: Adannaya Kayeda, RD

How would you rate your own roleplaying?: I’ve had a decent amount of time on Aurora and other servers, as well as other roleplaying games, so I’d probably put myself at a 7 or an 8 out of 10.

Do you understand your whitelist is not permanent, and may be stripped following continuous administrative action? Yes.

Have you familiarize yourself with the wiki pages for the command roles? Yes.

 

Extra notes: I suck at talking about myself, and writing essays. Please ask if you have any questions.

+1 from me

I have roleplayed with Cinny a good portion of my time playing Aurora and I can vouch for their roleplaying abilities.

As for any questions: what about the more recent events within Tau Ceti that may have had an effect on Adannaya?

[MattAtlas]

Sure. You'll be on trial until 08MAY2020.

Played a round with them as RD. They did not inspire leadership as such, but they were invested in my projects, from starting to finish (which some RD's could be better at), were inquisitive and accepting about my ideas, they were easy to talk to and approach, but did come off (understandably) as a bit timid about their position and giving orders. All in all seemed like the kind of RD I'd want to have. Or at least on the path to be. +1 from me.

They also took charge of an order from central without being "gotta fax to confirm", which I appreciated. I look forward to seeing how they handle a crisis more personally though. I can't really comment on their cooperation with other command members and the captain from my standpoint.

[CinnySuccubus]

Thanks for the feedback, and yeah, the timidness was about half RP and half me actually going "oh fuck i'm actually doing this".

[CrimsonFig]

(played as opal lotami) overall +1, was enjoyable as a director during my shift and taught me with simplicity about making protoguns

[VikingPingvin]

Played a couple of rounds with Kayeda. Good engagement with command.

+1 form Bernhoff

[SampleTex]

Enjoyed Xiang Zhou as a HOP, and I'd love to see them around the station even more
+1 from me

[SleepyWolf]

totally vibed w them, i was betlejuice and like it felt good. saw some stuff in an antag round and they didnt like, shut down shit, so real cool. 

yea

[Peppermint]

Had a solid round with her HoP. The RP and round guidance sides - the most important parts - were stella, though general job knowledge is important still. Things like knowing which code to use, faxing CC, how the command console/ID programs work - the simple stuff that will come with time and practice.

Strong plus one.

[CinnySuccubus]

yeah i have precisely 0 experience with with all of that, hopefully i learn by playing more paperwork monkey HoP

[ShesTrying]

Xiang Zhou is a good HoP. 

Conflict resolution, someone you can approach, and yet still a member of command. I like them! And I like Cinny!

+1, give them command whitelist or bust

[MattAtlas]

Accepted.
