General Whitelist Requirements

Have you read the lore pages for the species you wish to be whitelisted for?:  Yes

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?: 

Vaurcae provide an interesting departure from a normal gameplay, both IC and OOC wise.

What makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a human?: 

Vaurca (even unbound) are indoctrinated to serve the hive from birth, acces and intertwining of their life with VR also provides a big difference in their perception of time and reality and makes them quite unique from other species. Another difference comes from their upbringing as a species very reliant on their augments to the point of being ashamed of the pre-augmentation era of their species and anything to do with it.

Character Application

Character Name: Ka'Akaix'Kiis K'lax

Write a backstory for your character. This may include their origin, education, personality and how they arrived to the SCCV Horizon. 

Stemming from Ta’Akaix’Leto’yahkt’zor K’lax brood on Tret, it was born to be an anomalist from the egg stage with its VR education mostly being focused on the thinking part of the xenoarcheology rather than unearthing (though, obviously, it is capable of doing it should the bound be unavailable in remote excavation/exploration sites). From a young age it was very active in VR which later developed into it becoming a delver as a hobby and its fanaticism with the realms, forgotten and not so much, to the point of even entering vibrations from time to time when it is not delving or working in real space.

Seeing SCCV Horizon as great opportunity to complete its purpose of progressing hive's knowledge and potentialy even finding augmentation era artifacts that drifted through space for ages, it was employed as NanoTrasen xenoarcheologist of SCCV Horizon with the help of Vaurca Office of Administrative Services.

Due to Leto's brood influence, the shyness relating to pre-augmentation era of vaurcae does not hit it as much. While it would be very offended and defensive when accused of such heinous activities, it is not ashamed of watching such due to desensitization relating to being heavily invested in vaurca history (in the same way doctors are not affected by seeing blood as much as an average person would). In general, it's personality can be described as inquisitive and curious, if somewhat obsessive and single-minded, though not to a viax degree, more of a workaholic type of deal. When interacting with others it would be described as kind of a reserved nerd unless the topic discussed relates to history in some way, in which case it would talk about it all day if it is not stopped. It is also fascinated with cephalons as a phenomena and inspired greatly by Za'Akaix'Lot K'lax, hoping to become an archivist itself upon reaching afterlife.

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.  

Recents events have definetly sparked its interest, though not without fear and anxiety. Phoron Scarcity is something vaurca have been thinking about ever since exodus and the impure phoron use in the hiveships, while Solarian Collapse's magnitude can be seen similar to The Decline of Zo'ra and interstellar war to great hive war. The history does not repeat, it rhymes, something it knows.

A special place is reserved for the War in Heaven. Being very active in VR, it can see what it is doing to the whole system, causing a lot of strain and instability in the realms due to the sheer magnitude of Xathul Xon. Seeing the whole thing as completely detrimental to the Hives, it is very against, condemning the new method of hivenet warfare. Being a historian traditionalist, Zo'raphile Restorationism is what they believe to be right, seeing Hegemony as nothing but a "crutch" to survive through the times of chaos and misery.

How does your character view the megacorporation they work for?

Not much more than a tool to achieve the agenda. Should the corporation's views start diverging from the focus of research and exploration, it would no longer be interested in this cooperation. But that did not happen... /yet/.
