HauntedHamburger Posted February 8, 2022 Posted February 8, 2022 (edited) BYOND Key: HauntedHamburger Character Names: Nicholas Whittaker Species you are applying to play: IPC What color do you plan on making your first alien character: (Color of your character; Dionaea & IPCs exempt) Character is IPC, so exempt. Have you read our lore section's page on this species?: Yes, I have. 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 play an IPC because I enjoy playing as robotic characters Identify what makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a Human: There are many differences present in speech, and how characters of this race are usually treated. An example for each respectively would be slang and such spoken among IPCs in EAL and the fact that many crewmates may have conflicting opinions or marginalize IPCs. Another factor, at least for my character, is the ability to memorize things such as recipes extensively, feeling no pain but being vulnerable to heat and lasers, and not having the capability of making decisions as efficently or as nuanced as other intelligent species. Character Name: M.I.T.C.H. (Multipurpose Intelligence Technology, Culinary Head) Please provide a short backstory for this character M.I.T.C.H. is a free IPC who was produced by a robotics company rolling out IPCs specializing in various fields. M.I.T.C.H. earned his freedom by working for 2 years as a chef in a prestigious restaurant in Mendell City, earning enough money to buy his freedom. He continued to work for 5 years, climbing up the ranks of the kitchen until he became the head chef, having mastered a grand multitude of recipes. Word of his culinary skill spread like wildfire, and the restaurant would flourish in business. What do you like about this character? I like this character's friendly personality and his ability to bring smiles and full stomachs to all who come to him. I also find playing IPCs to be very fun in general. How would you rate your role-playing ability? I would say I'm somewhat above average, but I wouldn't say I excel at it, per se. I try my best to give each character of mine their own personalities and quirks Notes: If there is any more necessary discussion, you're welcome to communicate with me over Discord, and I will also check this forum daily. My Discord is HauntedHamburger#3336. Thank you! Edited February 16, 2022 by The lancer
The Stryker Posted February 8, 2022 Posted February 8, 2022 Hi! Thanks for applying. I have some concerns with the application, however. In general, the application is too short for us to get an accurate read of the character or your understanding of the lore. Quote Identify what makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a Human: You'll have to expand this section, for instance, an IPC is not necessarily less intelligent as compared to organics species. Could you also expand how IPCs are physically different outside of mechanics? Quote and the fact that many crewmates may have conflicting opinions or marginalize IPCs. Could you give some examples from the setting? Quote Please provide a short backstory for this character You'll have to expand a lot about MITCH since we're not sure about who he is as a character. For instance, what did MITCH do in his 5 years? How was he treated in his employment? Additionally, two years is a very short time to gain freedom, how did he manage it?
The lancer Posted February 16, 2022 Posted February 16, 2022 More than a week passed without response, so I'll have to deny it. I would suggest greatly expanding on your application because it is too short. The backstory needs 2 paragraphs.
