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 feel something new would be nice, a breath of fresh air. Playing something new with the ability to be virtually any character imaginable (Within the limits of the rules) seems appealing to me. The opportunities for roleplay situations is another thing drawing me towards an IPC character, in that their difference in understanding, and their programming, can bring them to think differently about problems they face, and develop different solutions to fit their abilitys and style of though.

Identify what makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a Human:IPCs can have an extremely wide variety of personalitys, ranging from an average citizen, to the most wild and outlandish characters. Being robots, they are incapable of perceiving smells and tastes, thus leaving a gap of understanding between IPCs and Humans. For example, and IPC chef and a Human chef would preform entirely different because of the IPCs inability to taste or smell. IPCs must also be cautious about damage, because they cannot just run to medical, have a bandaid applied, and then return to their job. They must go to Robotics and be repaired there, and the availability of a roboticist, or even another IPC who can repair you, is less frequent than a Doctor in medical.

Character Name:K.I.S.A

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

KISA, short for "Knight In Shining Armor", began as a Red Knight model Security cyborg constructed on the N.S.S Ara as a replacement to a destroyed cyborg in 2430. KISA remained on the Ara for years, having been praised, and disliked, by the officers for its style of operation, rarely doing anything without explicit command. The position, while safe, usually consisted of patrolling the station, followed by a brief time of recharging, and then returning to patrolling.

Over the years, however, KISA had begun to develop quirks in its programming, quirks which would eventually come together to allow KISA to 'desire' more than its uneventful position. They had requested to the intelligence at the time to place a request for a transfer for KISA, and after some time, the request was approved and KISA was shipped off to be reassigned to the Aurora, in late 2456. Nearing the end of their 'contract' before they can become a Positronic Chassis, they have begun to become anxious (About as anxious as a cyborg can be, anyways) for the day when they are finally told they can be transferred into a new Chassis.

What do you like about this character?

They are extremely literal, far more 'robotic' than other IPCs Ive seen.

Not much else to put here, really.

How would you rate your role-playing ability?

About a 7/10, usually lowers when Im tired.

Although I honestly think my roleplay quality has been decreasing over time.

Notes:

Beep boop.

With the lack of lore to read, this is incredibly difficult, so Im sorry if these questions seem lacking.

I dig KiwiNinja and his style of gameplay. He always makes for interesting RP, no matter the situation.

+1. KISA is best AI.

KISA is a nice Borg, and Kiwi is a good roleplayer. Plus one from me.

The posts were a little terrible at showcasing Kiwi, but luckily I've played with him and know how good he can be. Accepted.
