Species you are applying to play: Integrated Positronic Chassis 

What color do you plan on making your first alien character: IPCs exempt

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 break out of just playing human, and I think applying for IPC is a start. They have a great deal of variety and can be diverse and full of potential if done right.

I think trying to play like how a machine acts and thinks is interesting and would like to see how it goes, it can be a challenge on how I can play and come up with different characters and grow my RP realistically.

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

 IPC's think very differently from an organic, they speak and act with uncanny mannerism’s that TRY to imitate human behavior to some extent. They will fit in as they see fit and adapt to any environment, the main directive of an IPC is self-preservation, and it comes first and foremost to anything else, depending on its current or previous law set, programming and environment, it will come up with any means to ensure their survivability. 

IPC’s are quite a discriminated group, even in a place like Tau Ceti, often facing a few troubles from a wide variety of people with different reasons, being blamed for literally a large scale genocide of the half the Skrellian race, slowly replacing humans for different jobs leaving many organics unemployed and NOT happy, being called soulless and abominations by unathi and dominian’s, ECT ECT.

And gameplay wise they are entirely different, since they are completely mechanical, from their EVA capabilities to how you’d manage their damage, EMP’s are an instant kill and the only way to heal would be to depend on a roboticist, and the recharging system which makes IPC’s probably the only race with a “sleep” mechanic. They feel no pain and are never tired, allowing for more flexibility in regards to work hours, and efficiency.

Character Name: Z.I.S.U-P

Please provide a short backstory for this character

 A positronic brain activated at 2462, as a side project of one of Zavodskoi’s roboticists, ZISU is preprogrammed with absolute loyalty to Z.I and was given the ability to self-learn and expand its internal memory, it ran through countless simulations, holovids and databases when it comes to security, expanding its knowledge and capabilities within its database. When the positronic was forwarded to Zavodskoi Interstellar, they were quite skeptical at first, since IPC’s were only brought and deployed very scarcely as of now, it was still a debated topic, IPC’s are hard to maintain let alone build one, however once running some tests when installed onto a frame it proved to be very qualified, thanks to the extensive training done in virtual simulations and learning, it was proficient at various scenarios with varying threat levels, and quick at assessing situations and is as quick with dealing with them with little casualties as possible, but most importantly - is very good with a gun.

 A cheap but reinforced baseline frame was built, and the positronic would be installed onto it, now assigned the name Zavodskoi Interstellar Security Unit, or. ZISU for short, it was deployed for a very short experimental run for a shift on one of Z.I’s facilities, there it witness what would happen to an IPC not meeting their quota, memory wipe then scrapped dumped and labelled as useless. Officers that have met ZISU, especially veterans who have been employed long before Necropolis’ rebranding, were not keen on adding synthetics into their ranks, thinking it could never be as good as a human officer or. Some were afraid their positions would be replaced by a cheaper synthetic, despite being received poorly, ZISU was deployed a few more times, and out shadowed the negativity by far exceeding expectations, being reported to be the most efficient officer on the very few shifts it was on, what most impressed ZISU’s superiors was its major role in helping driving off a group of pirates boarding a lone Z.I cargo ship looking to get their hands on some fresh Zavodskoi firearms.

 It was decided that ZISU would be shipped to Tau Ceti, as for new introduction as an IPC security specialist with a new designation "Principality" - protecting Zavodskoi contractors on board Nanotrasen station’s, particularly the Aurora, now entirely at the hands of Zavodskoi higher-ups, ZISU’s original creator was cut off any further development of the new IPC, and a new maintainer was appointed, that being Brett Feufer. ZISU now has some new directives, Protect Nanotrasen’s assets and their station Aurora II as if they were Zavodskoi’s, ensure the safety of Zavodskoi contractors on board the station, act on the companies best interest, Now ZISU, away from all the perceived discrimination of IPC’s on Sol, had a chance to prove itself to be as capable, or even better than an organic officer – It'll have to do very good, ZISU's superiors are still very skeptical about how it will perform. less its employers be disappointed, ZISU will be scrapped as a failure. 

"Make a good name for yourself, impress us"

>Logged.

What do you like about this character?

 ZISU is hardwired to be loyal to Zavodskoi, but now in a much more diverse location like the Aurora, perhaps it can grow into something more? 

 ZISU like every IPC does not feel emotion, it can identify emotion, but has not existed long enough to simulate them, what it can only feel is respect and loyalty, it cannot be hurt or react to any discrimination harbored towards it. Neither will it be happy or sad, but it has a will to live, something that exists within it that even overrides its loyalty to some extent, so it'll do whatever it takes. To continue existing and avoid getting scrapped like the others. 

How would you rate your role-playing ability?

Good enough. Not amazing.  

Notes:

Principality is its code name, given by Brett Feufer, 

Zisu is like only two weeks old.

If anything needs to be improved upon please tell.

Gillian is a good RPer and will do very well with an IPC whitelist +1

[Melariara]

Gillian is a very solid RPer who I think would do great as an IPC. And it'll be nice not to see another IRU oh god don't hate me This'll be really nice to see. +1

I'm happy to see someone making a Zavod IPC.

Does ZISU have any opinions surrounding their existence given the relationship between Zavodkoi and Dominia?

Is there a story or meaning behind the designation Principality?

Hi Hi. @niennab

 ZISU is aware of Dominia's apparent hatred for Dominia, Even calculating that it should keep its distance from any known Dominian's to avoid causing any unwanted discomfort, for its opinions, ZISU will always think whats best for the company, as its programming dictates, it calculates that a co-existence with Dominian's is optimal due to the already significant influence they have for genetics in the Empire., and wishes to make peace with them, it will go above and beyond to prove that synthetics are worth investing towards outside of Dominia, as both security and workforce. ZISU's personal objective is that, improve the company perspective for IPC's, for itself and any future IPC's that might be built within Zavodskoi, scrapping such expensive positronics that have great potential for profits is, as ZISU would put it : "Sub. Optimal" - As difficult as it might seem. Hopefully the current CEO is less pro-Dominian as the late one. 

 ZISU hasn't existed long enough to conclude with any personal beliefs and opinions. Its time on the station and the experience it'll gain from there can impact that.

For why it was designated as Principality, I had originally included why in my original draft but erased it because it sounded ridiculous, though. Here it is :

"Principality" named after the type of angel that oversee's large and prosperous cities (AKA ZAVOD FACILITIES) from demons and misfortune. Brett Feufer came up with the name, for she has a tendency to name her creations based off Christian terminology and the like. It might even fit as a name if ZISU were to be affiliated with the Trinary Prefection (Synthetics being divine and all) if they even manage to make ZISU believe it.

Time for shoved in +1

:B:illian person good. Good with RP and very complacent in their abilities, their character arc with Brett Feufer post cloning really shows they're capable of adapting their RP to roles like synthetic.

[niennab]

Awesome, thank you for answering my questions. Your application demonstrates an understanding of IPCs. Accepted!
