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 species?:The main reason is that the skrell playerbase has died down over the years and I'm trying to repopulate it, rekindle it. The secondary reason is that the first wl that I ever wanted was a skrell wl, they always seemed like just the best species. Small balls of moisture with a long lifespan and a technological advantage over humanity. Playing this species would grant me multiple incredible roleplaying opportunities. What makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a human?: They're not mammals and they've had tens of thousands of years to advance without contact with humanity. They lack the muscles to have facial expressions so they move their headtails according to their current emotional states. Their thinking is affected by their long lifespan, believing short-term crises are inconsequential, thinking in the long-term. A skrell's mindset and emotions are also heavily impacted by tidal cycles, affecting them greatly depending on the nearby moon or moons. Not to mention psionics, wich include the srom and the nlom, making a large difference between human society and skrell society. ------------------------------ Character Application Character Name: Qrol'xel Jomwiiq Write a backstory for your character. This may include their origin, education, personality and how they arrived to the SCCV Horizon. (2 paragraphs minimum) Qrol'xel, born in the radiant era (2346) in Plebu'qlip on Aweiji, it's parents having done the tethering rituals, Qro'xel spent 30 years of it's life in scuttle school learning basic communication and motor skills. For the coming-of-age ceremony before reefgarden, it's mentor provided the following objects: A band-aid (I know they were invented in 1920 by humans but skrell had to have made like, a version of those.), a flask and a wood-carved rifle. Qrol'xel picked the band-aid to throw into the fire. Qrol'xel, now in reefgarden, it learned important subjects, and later picking the biology and chemistry modules. After 20 years, Qro'xel's family enrolled it into Depth College at Aliose University Of Medical Sciences. Spending 30 years in Depth College, Qrol'xel went for three degrees, it was a perfectionist. This was enforced by it's parents having great expectations of Qrol'xel. After this, Qrol'xel applied for residency at a hospital in Plebu'qlip, back home. Spending another 20 years, and another after finishing it's residency. Qrol'xel was then picked out for the work initiative program for Ziip'ta Medicinal by Zeng-Hu Pharmaceuticals onboard the SCCV Horizon for it's eagerness to learn and aid. Qrol'xel kept a few Sqamps along it's life. They were also a fan of Homeworld: Invasion, as they have never been to Qerrbalak. Qrol'xel's current credit score is 5.73 due to having been influenced by the Nralakk Federation from birth. Qrol'xel's faith is Qeblak. And the most important piece of information.... Spoiler Qrol'xel's favorite food is Gnagmi, wich they have only eaten 8 times at formal events. The taste of both fried Neaera organs and boiled Fjylozin compliment eachother perfectly, making Gnagmi a delicacy amongst many skrell. How has the recent events of the Orion Spur impacted your character? Events such as the Phoron Scarcity, the Solarian Collapse or even the Invasions of Biesel for interstellar-wide affairs, while region-specific events such as the Peacekeeper Mandate, The Titan Rises or even Cold Dawn may impact your character. (1 paragraph minimum) The solarian collapse was a major event for the Nralakk Federation, due to being the Alliance's closest ally, this would have mostly affected economic inflation. The entire king of the world arc was quite disastrous for the federation's economy, and everyone involved. Qrol'xel was saddened and worried by the fall of the solarian alliance. The disbanding and reforming of the Tupkala did not affect Qrol'xel much. The phoron scarcity reaching the federation was once again a hit to the economy. Qrol'xel was frightened by the reports of pirates raiding a phoron depot. How does your character view the megacorporation they work for? Qrol'xel views Zeng-Hu Pharmaceuticals as a way to advance medicinal research throughout the Spur, by uniting humanity and skrellkind. Edited June 3, 2024 by WhatsUpBrotendo 1
