How long have you been playing on Aurora?
I played a bit before 2021, but 2021 is the year I really got into aurora. So 2 years or so.

 

Have you received any administrative actions? And how serious were they?

I haven’t been warned, just lightly warned? Like when I was playing a golem and I didn’t follow an order, that sort of stuff: I believe I’ve also been asked why I headgibbed someone but I explained myself and all was fine.

 

Please provide well articulated answers to the following questions in a paragraph each.

 

What do you think the OOC purpose of a Head of Staff is, ingame?
In my honest opinion Head of Staffs should drive the RP forward be it antag gimmicks or some crazy engineer wanting to test a new SM setup, instead of shutting the antag gimmick down you should follow along with it. Oh the CoC rangers are here, let's give them some time to relax etc etc, non antag related things would be the paperwork side. Oh you want to try a new engine? Just sign here that all damages will put you in debt or something. Of course you can’t be too lenient, you have to set your foot down sometimes, like of course SRF you can chill here on the Horizon wouldn’t be the best thing to do as command.  Also probably the most important part of playing command is the leading role, not running and killing the antags yourself or getting all the bounties, you should tell your minions to do that, and that kinda reinforces my first opinion it creates RP for other people. And lastly the learning part, Heads of Staffs can’t do everything in a department but they can in LOOC or in OOC help the new guy with the learning or better yet if it’s something you or some other player knows tell them IC for more RP.

 

What do you think the OOC responsibilities of Whitelisted players are to other players, and how would you strive to uphold them?

They should know the department they’re playing in, maybe not inside and out, every nook and cranny but at least the basics. I have no idea how to play medical as an exemple so I would play an intern first learn the basics and then maybe hop on CMO when I feel like I know the basics. Players RP should be pretty good like not making characters that doesn’t have any flaws and is good at everything be it hacking doors or saving someone from injecting phoron, depth is also good but honestly sometimes you just want to play a stupid Guwan that sells cigarettes and scams people and leave it at that.
 

 

Explain how the recent events in the Spur changed your character and how they came to be employed on the SCCV Horizon.

It depends highly on the character but let’s take my engineer Rasmus Lindgren, he was pretty anti Trinarist from the start but after the arc where hepth and Exclusionists bombed one and other, he started being more anti hepth. While not not hostile to hepth he more had a dislike for the company and not the workers. And started softing up to humans that follow the religion.
 

 

What roles do you plan on playing after the application is accepted?

I want to try and give Consular a shot but it will most likely be playing CE, HoS and OM mostly. Maybe XO or Captain if I get a good character idea some day
 

 

Have you familiarized yourself with the wiki pages for the command roles?
The ones I want to play yeah. And of course if for some ungodly reason I want to try and play RD I’ll read the wiki page

 

Characters you intend to use for command or have created for command. Include the job they will be taking:
Moga Rozalt (CE)

 

Do you understand your whitelist is not permanent, and may be stripped following continuous administrative action?
Yup

 

Have you linked your BYOND account to the Forums?
Yes

 

Extra notes:
I’ll be gone for the new year so just in case my trail starts then.

Lenny is a good man just to talk to, and all of his characters are hits. He knows the responsibilities and mechanics of whatever department he plays while still managing to play a character with great personality at the same time. I don't see any reason why he wouldn't do well at Command. 💜

I have personally elevated Keeh Rasi as an interim head of security and monitored him multiple times in the past. Rasi performed his duties in a way that I feel is sufficient with the standard of command positions by allowing antagonists to cook while simultaneously attempting to deal with the issue without using too much force. Lenny is essentially already a qualified command player in my experience (just as long as we don't see Bloodclaw OM please oh god dont promote that bastard).

[goolie]

Awesome player, awesome RPer and has even more awesome characters. I'd love to see the mischief he gets up to as a command member!

You fucking better promote Bloodclaw to OM. Also, I've had nothing but positive experiences with MrLenny's characters, so I have no doubt he'll be able to play in a command role.

+1!

I dont know Lenny, but from previous experiences, i think he knows how to roleplay his characters pretty well, and how to obey the rules even when doing something funky or fun. An good example of this would be Bloodclaw. Moreover, i think that his answers align with what should be expected of a Head of Staff.

Would also suggest you expand on the character you intend to use for a CE trial in the "how did recent events in the Spur affect your character" field.

That being said, I love Lenny and he is a great RPer. I think he could really get the hang of a command role. +1

Hi! Thank you for applying. Before moving forward with your application, could you rewrite this section?

We would like to hear about your head of staff character that you plan on playing for the duration of your trial

Of course!

Moga Rozalt is the fifth son of a minor lord near To’ha’dat a few kilometers away from the city, always being interested in the engineering field he finished school with a doctorate in engineering at the age of 25. Mogas father seeing an opertunity to strengthen Rozalt influence he suggested his son would go off and work for Hephaestus as their influence grew on Moghes. Moga has worked for ten years at Hephaestus due to his noble standing he quickly rose as a Chief Engineer mainly working on Moghes but has worked on some mining outposts at the Korgak Mining Outpost.

In 2465 when Hephaestus got the monopoly over the Hegemony, Moga got offered a position within the SCC where he would work as a CE on board the SSCV Horizon. He quickly accepted the deal and took a few classes on Human, Skrell and the rest of the aliens' culture. And now he is ready to work on the SSCV Horizon.

On trial from 1 January 2024 - 8 January 2024. During this time please try to play your command character as much as you can in order to gather feedback for this application. Remember that you can advertise your application in OOC once per round. 

[FearTheBlackout]

Just got off a (albeit not great for other reasons) Rev round with Rozalt as the CE. I would say that Lenny provided good leadership and characterization before things broke into chaos! I can't speak for afterwards because I got converted to rev and was out of contact with the rest of Engineering, but from what I've seen (and I'm sure I'll have more to say next time I play with him during a less hectic round) I'm happy to maintain my +1 at this time.

[rrrrrr]

played two rounds w rozalt as CE. very solid... good player in a role that's often a little underplayed vs cap/xo/hos.

+1

[Billy Mays]

Lenny is a great guy, and dishes out amazing RP! All of his characters are super memorable and fun to interact with. With his new CE he manages the department perfectly, I have no doubt he'll excel in other leadership roles as well! Definitely a +1 from me!

 

[Vulcenus]

ill only +1 if fuma ilica returns because it's a cool character even though lenny is a good rper and deserves the command whitelist sorry
@ me when this happens good luck
