The problems listed in the reply are not something I can work around for the character I want the whitelist for.

Hello.

This application has a few issues, I've discussed it with the lore team and will split up the points below.

IPCs are inherently tied very strongly to megacorporation's in all areas they are produced, Barring Elyra as the exception to this rule. We have a page for Synthetic Origins on the wiki and we don't really want to see a new company making a cutting-edge, special frame to be a thing. As it goes against the heavy involvement of the pre-existing megacorporations we want in Synthetic Lore. Additionally the IPC wiki page states that "IPCs themselves lack any commercial military lines known to the general public." which this backstory seems to be in direct contradiction with.

The way Takman is described makes it something that would not appear on the Horizon if it is meant to be a military frame and designed to mimic a human soldier. Military-Grade Synthetics are something that don't appear on the Horizon. Military-Grade frames such as Hunter-Killer units are not open to be played from the character creation menu for this reason and the frames presented as options none of them are military grade. Along with this any military grade parts for an IPC would be stripped once they leave service, which is why you can't play an Industrial or other unit as a military-grade synthetic. This simply isn't present on the Horizon.

Finally, The character concept described really isn't what we look for in terms of a whitelist application character, we want to see a synthetic character with a story behind them rather than an out of the box, just made and shipped Synthetic which is what your current story seems to describe. A first-ever production model that is just shipped off with little to no backstory for themselves is not really acceptable in this regard as we want a whitelistee to show they can craft and interesting, compelling and lore accurate story about the synthetic themselves.


So for the reasons above we won't be accepting this character as a Synthetic character. Though we welcome you to apply with a different character and we will look at it again once this is done. (You can just edit the current application for this of course, the rest is fine)
