slc97 Posted July 24, 2015 Posted July 24, 2015 (edited) BYOND key: slc97 Character names: Jack Sayek How long have you been playing on Aurora?:Little less than a month now. Why do you wish to be on the whitelist?: I'm pretty used to playing heads and security from the other servers I've played on and I like the positions. Jack does good in leadership woles and I think that it would assist in his character development. Why did you come to Aurora?: I used to play on Walter00's old full roleplay station but it shut down and I heard Aurora was good Have you read the BS12 wiki on the head roles you plan on playing?: Word for word 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 about envelopment. It's all about fully becoming an entirely different purpose. I've been playing Jack Sayek for two years now at least and he's become so immersive that he's a part of me now. Roleplaying should never involve anything outside of the character in my mind. Roleplay has always been to me about the story and that's all it should ever be about. It should be about creating an immersive character that everyone can enjoy. What do you think the OOC purpose of a Head of Staff is, ingame?: Out of character, a Head of Staff should be an aspiration. You wanna get good enough and play long enough to figure out exactly the way to adapt your character to that role. In character a Head of Staff should be a well-versed character that knows their field fully and doesn't abuse the power of that position. They should always be more about the station and the people on it than themselves. It's more of a general welfare role that the player has to adapt to than something you can just jump into. b]What do you think the OOC responsibilities of Whitelisted players are to other players, and how would you strive to uphold them?: I think the responsibilities of OOC whitelisted players to other players is to set an example. Be an example for what a roleplayer should be and on how to keep a nice and cordial server. My way to contribute this, share my 2 or 3 years of experience roleplaying with any one who needs it. I hate fighting anyway, so I wouldn't want to be starting fights in OOC, I would wanna keep the server cordial. Please pick one of your characters for this section, and provide well articulated responses to the following questions. Character name: Jack Sayek Character age: 47 Please provide a short biography of this character (approx 2 paragraphs): Jack is one of the hard on the outside but soft on the inside types. he doesn't usually let many people close because of how many people he's lost. When he was younger he was in a war he never speaks of. He'll often become abrasive to those who bring up any part of his past. The reality is that he had a son and a wife that were killed by raiders before he joined the war. He gained much of his medical experience during the war. He eventually was discharged when the war ended and joined NanoTransen. He is supportive of NT due to their help in him getting his life back together after the war. He eventually kicked a Tramadol addiction. He eventually was brought onto stations as a medical professional. He has never gotten close to a woman again after the loss of his wife. In his medical career he has often found himself reprising the role he served for his son. He treats the station like his son... only slightly verbally abusive. What do you like about this character?: I like his complexity. I've been developing him over multiple servers for the last two or three years. He's gone small bits and pieces of myself in him that I'm proud of. I like that he is about the people and the job. What do you dislike about this character?: I dislike that I make him somewhat distant towards people, but it works with the character complexity that I want in him. He pushes people away, but he's always there to help. What do you think makes this character fit to be a head of staff?: Essentially a head of staff should be there to help all of the station and the crew members of the station. Jack may be somewhat abrasive, but in the end he cares about everyone on the station. He wants everything and everyone to operate at its very best. Please provide well articulated answers to the following questions. How would you rate your own roleplaying?: Like I said, I've developed my character for 2 or 3 years. It's the only character I've used minus any ERT, Alien, AI, etc. characters, so I become fully immersed in my roleplaying. I would say I'm very good at it, Edited August 10, 2015 by Guest

SilentNight195 Posted July 25, 2015 Posted July 25, 2015 (edited) I have zero clue who you are, so I can't say if you're ready to be a head or not, however, your formatting is not good, period. I'd recommend fixing it. EDIT: Okay, formatting was fixed. now to stalk you every round to say whether or not I like you Edited July 27, 2015 by Guest
slc97 Posted July 25, 2015 Author Posted July 25, 2015 Can you tell me what's wrong with the formatting.? I copy and pasted it right from the application format.
swat43 Posted July 26, 2015 Posted July 26, 2015 I know Jack Sayek, since Aliums. I am fully for you mate, but under few conditions, to earn my points, you have to do what people ask. Let yourself be known on server. Even if i know you, others don't, so hey, you have something to prove to us, on how you changed of the time. Anyway, less talky, more worky, more provy. Get going, and make me proud, old friend!
slc97 Posted July 27, 2015 Author Posted July 27, 2015 Swat! Awesome to see you again. Hey, what happened to Walter's server? I was on a few month hiatus and when I came back it was just gone.
