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 acting out a role in a certain scenario. For example, you're a nurse in a medbay, but in reality you're the same person.. Get the gist? Roleplay isn't just being focused on being that person assigned to a certain occupation, it's always about having fun and enjoying what you're doing.

What do you think the OOC purpose of a Head of Staff is, ingame?: The OOC purpose of a Head of Staff ingame is to help people out and assist them in needs. Questions are going to be thrown into LOOC, OOC, whatever the case, they should be addressed appropriately. You may know more things than the player in both roleplaying and in-game mechanics.

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 act as if they were a mentor. Whitelisted players aren't just the average person anymore, you don't just respond to a question that is asked in LOOC towards you like, "You have autism; Ahelp retard; Why would you ask that? Etc." For whitelisted players it's almost your duty to aid others and to push the roleplay experience to the max in any scenario to keep everyone happy. You need the ability to think before you say it.

Please pick one of your characters for this section, and provide well articulated responses to the following questions.

Character name: Bronson Ironmonger

Character age: 34

Please provide a short biography of this character (approx 2 paragraphs): Bronson Ironmonger came to the NSS Aurora after nearly twenty years of service in the space military. At the station he was stationed on he protected it successfully and had twelve confirmed kills; he also served as the Head of Security of the Omega for a brief period, kind of like a substitute teacher, but long-term. Before joining the space military he was just a regular old assistant doing useless things daily. Conveniently he has gotten rid of those habits, and has even received numerous awards for his professionalism and bravery.

His professional career outside of the space military is being the Head of Security. He has applied this combination of his robustness and logistics to succeed in his professional career. These professional efforts have been recognized by Nanotrasen which allowed him to work full time as a Head for any station, at any given time. This great achievement was recognized by a variety of stations owned by Nanotrasen

He is active in a variety of different departments, Cargo, Security, and the Medbay. Outside of professional interests, he practices MMA, reads, writes, fights, and enjoys being in charge.

What do you like about this character?: How he's determined to be the best. If you were to try to step up to him he will beat you down until you cant figure out where you're at. He doesn't play games when it comes to important things.

What do you dislike about this character?: He's very stubborn, never takes no for an answer. May be very annoying at some times as he takes his job seriously and hardly shows any sense of humor whatsoever.

What do you think makes this character fit to be a head of staff?: He's sophisticated as he dresses appropriately and stays on the task at hand. Whether it's a rogue crew member or a malfunctioned AI, he will make sure it's dealt with.

Extra notes: I just did it

Also this was written late at night. Don't hurt me.

-1, the few interactions I've had with Bronson were not exactly positive.

-1, the few interactions I've had with Bronson were not exactly positive.

May you share one of them? I'd like to know.

[Killerhurtz]

There was that one time where Bronson decided, during Raven's event, to assault a refugee that was in the kitchen (while he was botanist) just for being in the kitchen. No "get away", not even a "fuck off" - just a NO as you climbed over the table and proceeded to try and assault her. And there was the times where he spewed not-so-great things over the radio. And IIRC he got busted more than once for distributing ambrosia.

[Gollee]

This character seems to have far too wide a spread for his age; cargo, medical and security? A scant four years above security's minimum? This seems like a poor hero character to me.

As for interactions; I was cadet during a Bronson Vampire round; and I enjoyed it; there was pandamoneum without explosions. I could +1 if his skills were better defined, and possibly toned down.

[Dreamix]

...Is this application a joke?

Character age: 34 (...) Bronson Ironmonger came to the NSS Aurora after nearly twenty years of service in the space military.

>Be 14 years old. Join "space military".

Bronson Ironmonger came to the NSS Aurora after nearly twenty years of service in the space military. At the station he was stationed on he protected it successfully and had twelve confirmed kills;

>What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little space catbeast? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my space class in the Space Navy Space Seals, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret space raids on space Adhomai, and I have over 300 confirmed space syndie kills. All on the space NSS Aurora I was assigned to. Everything's canon.

Before joining the space military he was just a regular old assistant doing useless things daily. (...) (he) has even received numerous awards for his professionalism and bravery.

>Numerous awards. Maybe a little too humble?

His professional career outside of the space military is being the Head of Security.

So, what was his non-professional career? Is he also a space pirate, space smuggler and a space space syndicate space agent?

He has applied this combination of his robustness and logistics to succeed in his professional career.

>Robustness. Is this even a word, IC-ly?

These professional efforts have been recognized by Nanotrasen which allowed him to work full time as a Head for any station, at any given time. This great achievement was recognized by a variety of stations owned by Nanotrasen

Is this even possible?

Character age: 34 (...) He is active in a variety of different departments, Cargo, Security, and the Medbay.

Am I doing this right?

Outside of professional interests, he practices MMA, reads, writes, fights, and enjoys being in charge.

And his name is...

If you were to try to step up to him he will beat you down until you cant figure out where you're at. He doesn't play games when it comes to important things.

...I'm not sure if a head of security should act like this. Isn't use of excessive violence prohibited because of loyalty implants, and also NT's PR?

The OOC responsibilities of a whitelisted player is to act as if they were a mentor. Whitelisted players aren't just the average person anymore, you don't just respond to a question that is asked in LOOC towards you like, "You have autism; Ahelp retard; Why would you ask that? Etc." For whitelisted players it's almost your duty to aid others and to push the roleplay experience to the max in any scenario to keep everyone happy. You need the ability to think before you say it.

I believe, that being a whitelisted player is something else/more than just not being a dick in OOC. It's about keeping players in round, providing them with leadership, coordinating with your subordinates and other heads of staff, etc.

He's very stubborn, never takes no for an answer. May be very annoying at some times as he takes his job seriously and hardly shows any sense of humor whatsoever.

I find this funny, because this application gave me top kek. In all seriousness, I would really suggest retracting (withdrawing) this application, passively observing people play heads of staff, making a new, more realistic/immersive character, and finally applying for this again, a month or so later.

Yeah, I automatically -1 anyone I've seen play the crazed geneticist after changing 1 gene and that is the last thing I remember Bronson Ironmonger doing. I also remember him using words like robust in IC which it strictly says not to use in the server rules. I've also never seen Bronson have any character development beyond "I'm a badass and I'm not gonna do what you tell me even if you're my boss." Do what Lish did wen he applied and got a bunch of negative feedback, withdraw for a while and fix your character a bit.

[TishinaStalker]

Just going to say this now. When the 3 day period ends, this application is getting denied. I apologize if I come off as rude, but this is by far one of the worst characters I've seen be used for head of staff whitelist apps; this character is a joke and speaks volumes about your application. I don't care that you wrote this late at night, but common sense should've spoken to you before hitting submit.
