DanteCrow Posted July 30, 2023 Posted July 30, 2023 (edited) BYOND Key: (DanteCrow) Character Names: (Xanders Anders) Species you are applying to play: (Skrell) What color do you plan on making your first alien character: (Aquamarine Axiori Skrell) Have you read our lore section's page on this species?: 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: (Skrell, and more specifically Flaundra Muelack was the first alien race I played on aurora some odd 8 or 9 years ago. I no longer have access to that account/email and have recently picked up SS13 again. It only seemed fitting to bring my most notable, and played character back to life.) Identify what makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a Human: (The Skrell hold a strong opinion in the field of science and study. Becoming masters in their fields, and boasting strong psionics. The introduction is stress based ooze I find to be extremely interesting. On top of that, thier ability to integrate dreams with one another through the Srom boasts some strong potential roleplay. My intention is to bring Flaundra back into the medical field of the spacestation, and integrate her back into the server over time, as I become more comfortable with the game again.) Character Name:(Flaundra Muelakc) Please provide a short backstory for this character (Flaundra Muelack is 26 years old. Flaundra was born into the home world of Qerrbalak. Her father was a scientist and her mother was a virologist. From the time she matured from being a tadpole, she was already working in her parents labs. That is until her mothers untimely death. At the age of 15 Flaundras mother passed away due to natural causes. Her mother passed at the bright old age of 112, while her father who was younger than her mother continued working in his field. Time passed and Flaundra learned how to cope with the loss. In doing so she decided that it would be best if she took after her mother and became a virologist. After 5 years Flaundra became almost bored with her job. A dream stirred in her, she wished so very much to view people...to work with other races and learn about them. She continued working virology how she had been until the age of 24, when her father died. Killed by Th'oom right in front of her eyes. It took her a couple of years to get over it, and though the memory haunts her she has decided it best not to let it hold her back. She decided that she would run after her dreams. She would work along side many many different races, while helping to further exploration into space. She decided she would apply for NT. It is now that her story begins.) What do you like about this character? (her affiliation with science, and curiosity of other races, and their mentality.) How would you rate your role-playing ability? (8/10) Notes: I mentioned earlier that this is a very old character that I'm reviving. I know the lore is different than what it use to be, and I'll adapt Flaundra as such. I'll paste my old app for this character below the notes section.

How long have you been playing on Aurora: Not sure but at least 4 months. Maybe around 6. Species you are applying to play: Skrell What color do you plan on making your first alien character (Dionaea & IPCs exempt): Purple 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 find the Skrell race to be...to my liking to say the least. I like their back story, their scientific study of the mind, and over all I like the type of species the Skrell are. I believe they are a fun race to play as, and I could do it well. Identify what makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a Human: Skrell are different than humans for a few reason. They don't get offended hardly at all, their appearance is different, they don't find others..."attractive". They way the treat Unathi, and the Tajaran is different as well. Where a human may try to take advantage of a Tajaran, a Skrell would simply treat it as it were...not smart.

WhatsUpBrotendo Posted July 30, 2023 Posted July 30, 2023 (edited) Hi, thanks for applying. I will be denying this app because it's very apparent that you haven't read Skrell lore as it is today. There is very little in the way of Skrell lore mentioned in the character's backstory, and what is there is either referencing old lore or just incorrect. Their name is not in line with what we consider a Skrell name, and the ages provided do not align with Skrell ages as they're written down. The fact that you've mentioned virology and NanoTrasen leads me to believe you haven't updated yourself on the server's setting as a whole either. I suggest starting from the beginning and reading up on the lore we've written since you played nearly 10 years ago. A lot has changed and there's little if anything of what existed back then still in our lore. You'll be able to reapply in three days. Edited July 30, 2023 by WhatsUpBrotendo
