BYOND Key: Demonofthefall

Character Names: Rafee Isra, Shar'croz Azetroth, Helzo Velrazo, Ta'Akaix'Xarrax Zora and many others over the six years I've been on this server.

Species you are applying to play: Diona.

What color do you plan on making your first alien character: Dark bark.

Have you read our lore section's page on this species?: Yup.

Why do you wish to play this specific race: I've been on this server for so long Diona is the only race I have not played as. I was not interested in them at first until seeing the growth of the race over the years from a "tree creature" to something much more fleshed out with in depth lore as brought me much interest in playing as a Diona.

Identify what makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a Human: In my opinion they are easily the most unique race as they are made up from nymphs that work in unison to form a single being. They come from a wide range of different locations from the Emperors Royal Garden to the wasteland of Moghes providing them a great range of personality and backstory . They live off radiation and light but in an emergency they can absorb nutrients from the atmosphere meaning they must seek out light during power outages to survive. 

Character Name: Void Wanderer Saved By The Dorviza

Please provide a short backstory for this character: The oldest Nymph of the Cyclops began its life in the cluster attached to the Vaurca hiveship Titan Prime forming with two other Nymph to create a Cerberus spending most of its time hiding from the Vaurca until it was discovered being forced to split from the other two and flee into space for its own survival. It drifted through space for many years developing thick bark over the many years to protect it from the harsh radiation of space at the cost of being unable to move which was not that much of a hindrance while floating through space. Eventually they drifted into the Uueoa-Esa star system and was pulled in by the gravity of Moghes crashing into the wasteland like a meteorite. The impact caused the nymph great harm but was protected from fatal injuries by the extremely thick bark it had developed. A young Sinta who was a member of The Dorviza clan investigating the impact site discovered the immobile nymph. Familar with Diona the Sinta took the Nymph back to her village to help nurse it back to health. The Nymph would form a Cyclops with other nymph that lived among the clan helping with tending to the crops and sharing its many stories of witnessing the cosmos. They learned much from Sinta and local Diona becoming skilled at tending to plants as well as adopting much of the Sinta culture. The old Nymph would act as a leader to the younger Nymphs it formed a Cyclops with as they would admire its age and wisdom along with its many stories of the world outside the wastelands. The Sinta who saved them also inspired by the stories wished to leave the wasteland along with its new friend they would save up enough money to pay a smuggler to get them off Moghes and past the Izweski navy to take them to Besiel where they would begin a new adventure.

What do you like about this character? I like how it involves my favorite races (Unathi and Vaurca) into its backstory and the fact I enjoy playing as a Gardener but currently have no Gardener character. They are very untrusting of Vaurca to the point of being frightened of them but are extremely trusting and loyal to Unathi. 

How would you rate your role-playing ability? Maybe a 7-7.5/10 depending on how tired I am. 

Notes: I put off getting this whitelist for years as I didn't want to get it for the sake of having every whitelist but after giving the lore a read over after not looking at it in years I decided to finally go for it.

Hi, few things to say

One thing we need to discuss is having them be from Titan Prime and Moghes, it’s very unlikely this would happen, and we’d rather have them only be from one place or the other, not from both. If you decide to just have them be from Moghes you shouldn’t need to edit the backstory on the app

Also got some questions to ask:

What is their mindtype? How have their experiences shaped it?

(if you go with having them from Moghes) What was their clan's religion on Moghes? Did they join the faith or join a different one? How do they feel about the Eternal?

How'd they feel about Moghes culture and the Hegemony? or How do they feel about vaurca and the way they operate with their hives? Opinions on viax and such?

What will they job be on station? Did any past experiences make them want to pursue this field?

How do they feel about other species? Do they like humans? How do they feel about synthetics?

How do you think they'd feel about being in Biesel? Are they acclimating well?

[Demonofthefall]

Instead of being from Titan Prime could they have broken off from a space whale instead before landing on Moghes? As for the religion the Unathi clan follows Th'akh. At first not devout only using Th'akh as a guide to live by doing good things and respecting nature leading to good things happening to you. After time they would become quite a devout follower of Th'akh. They respect the Hegemony as they feel it will help bring order to the Unathi though they do not like how the Guwan are treated. They will work as a gardener on the Aurora something they find much joy doing creating life that in turn sustains life. They were heavily involved in removing radiation and tending to crops while on Moghes. As for mind type they are seasoned song with the younger nymphs of the Cyclops following the elder respecting his wisdom and outer world experience as they younger have never left the wasteland. While only recently coming into contact with advanced synthetics since being on Biesel they believe that they are extremely useful tools but have no soul. They have no strong opinion on the other species having only spending limited time with them. They are struggling to acclimatize to Biesel missing the wasteland as they feel being there they were more in touch to nature.

That should be fine, answers are good so we'll be accepting your app.
