SilentNight195 Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 (edited) BYOND key: SilentNight195 Character names: Karen Pierce, Travis Stamos, Amber Koster How long have you been playing on Aurora?: About five or six days, I think, but I would hop on from time to time before this. Why do you wish to be on the whitelist?: To fill the head positions that are usually available, such as CMO and maybe even Captain. Why did you come to Aurora?: To join a server with great RP and to be a part of a well-known and well-respected community. Have you read the BS12 wiki on the head roles you plan on playing?: Yes. Please provide well articulated answers to the following questions in a paragraph each. Give a definition of what you think roleplay is, and should be about: Roleplay is stepping into the shoes of someone else. It's leaving the world you live in behind you, and entering a whole new world where so many new things are possible. Roleplay is being someone completely new and living a completely different life. It's doing so much more in a world where so much more is possible. Roleplay should be a fun thing for everybody, not just for one individual. What do you think the OOC purpose of a Head of Staff is, ingame?: I think that it would be to teach players about their role and how to do a specific job, if they are unsure how to do it, and to do their job and keep their department in order. A Head of Staff should know the majority of the department they are the head of, thus meaning they should be able to easily be able to teach players that are unsure about something in the department. What do you think the OOC responsibilities of Whitelisted players are to other players, and how would you strive to uphold them?: The OOC responsibilities of a whitelisted player is to set an example for players, both in having good RP and being able to show how things must be done. They should enforce good RP in players and always push them to do their best all around. Please pick one of your characters for this section, and provide well articulated responses to the following questions. Character name: Amber Koster Character age: 35 Please provide a short biography of this character (approx 2 paragraphs): Amber and Ambrosine Koster both grew up in a very abusive household... Their mother left, and their dad with an alcoholic. He would often sexually and physically abuse Amber, and Ambrosine was not able to do anything about it. Ambrosine would often hear Amber crying as their dad abused her, and Ambrosine would try her hardest to tune it all out.. Amber, on the otherhand, had to experience every last bit of it, firsthand. Her father let his rage out on her and took advantage of her. One fateful evening, Amber and her father were in their house's basement together, her father doing his usual cruelties, and Ambrosine was there, sitting at the top of the stairs, watching as it happened. Something right then in Amber snapped and she fought her father back. He pulled out a knife on her and cut her directly in the face, from her left eye to her lower lip. Amber retaliated by jabbing her foot into his knee, and she took his knife and jammed it into his neck. She looked up to see Ambrosine staring at her in horror. Amber went up the stairs, collected Ambrosine, and went to seek help. After that day, she began training to become an officer of the law and protect people so that they do not have to go through anything remotely close to what she went through... What do you like about this character?: She is a great person, despite how rude she can be. She can be extremely sweet, depending how a person acts towards her. I also quite enjoy her style of handling things. She will do whatever she can to keep her crew safe, even if it means making the ultimate sacrifice. What do you dislike about this character?: She can be a bit too rude at times, and because of this, she has a habit of making enemies, or at least causing people to dislike her. People that dislike Koster also happen to be disliked by Koster, so there is really no solving the issue. What do you think makes this character fit to be a head of staff?: Her sense of leadership. She will always push people to do their best work, one way or another. She will always make sacrifices for her crewmates, no matter how much she likes or dislikes them, because she knows it is the right thing to do. She would do anything to ensure her crew's safety. Please provide well articulated answers to the following questions. How would you rate your own roleplaying?: I wouldn't say it's the best, but I would say it is okay. On a scale of one to ten, I would give it about a six, or maybe even a seven. People tell me that my RP is good, but I criticize myself harshly. Extra notes: I know my jobs on the station and I know how to roleplay them properly. I know what needs to be done and I know how to get it done. I also most of the time play Pierce, I just chose to do my character information on Koster because she is a much more interesting character, backstory-wise. Edited June 11, 2015 by Guest
SilverTalismen Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 I love it, your a amazing roleplayer and I have had tons of fun with you, your characters are all amazing to play with and i believe that they are actual people with actual lives outside of were i know them.
Guest Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 You mention wanting to play Captain. Take my advice, from a Captain Main/Veteran, play the other command roles before trying Captain, and once you start playing Captain, be sure to take breaks as normal crew positions and non-Captain head roles, being the highest on-station authority can really make you lose perspective fast. Other than that, I see no issue with this application except perhaps that you've only been with us for a month :$ But I'm willing to endorse this

callum99877 Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 Ive had very little IC interactions with you, but i see no problem with your application. Hopefully others will tell me your good IC.
Crescentise Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 Good application, nice person OOCly, Karen Pierce is very well-played ICly. Mature, good credentials. You'd be mad not to accept.
Saintsbury Posted June 12, 2015 Posted June 12, 2015 I fully support this app, because I play 9/10 rounds in MedBay, which is why I'm almost destined to run into Karen Pierce and everytime she seems competent, professional and it's fun RPing with her.
Japak121 Posted June 13, 2015 Posted June 13, 2015 OOOOH HOW I LOVE KAREN PIERCE AND SILENTNIGHT195!!!!!! But really, excellent roleplayer, I support this app 110%
