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 specific race: Unathi are my kind of species. Honorbound and unique, I find playing as a species that has guidelines or specific ways to play are much more fun. Despite hassling from certain people, I actually do like Unathi a lot. Their lore is detailed and interesting, and allows a more reptilian species onto the playing field. I've always wanted to play Unathi, so here I am with my whitelist now. Also I got very interested after that Unathi slaver round I hosted.

Identify what makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a Human: Unathi are not as flambitous as humans are. I don't think that's a word, but it will do. Unless you have some sort of Bushido-code traiend human, you cannot get the same kind of personality as you would with a standard Unathi. They are intrigueing.

Why does this species in particular hold your interest? Pretty much the above statement, as this is literally just a rehash of the first question. They are honor-bound and hold a personal bond due to my love of reptilian like species. Essentially, they are very fun to play as and interact with.

Character Name: Isilithai Uaekis

Please provide a short backstory for this character, approximately 2 paragraphs Isilithai was born in the Moghes' Heartlands, among a small tribe. Growing up looking up to his father, he modelled everything he did after the man. In his mid teens, he became his clan's hunter and accompanied his father on a hunting trip into the jungles of Moghes. After hours of hunting, the worst occured. As Isilithai hunted a small threshbeast, a small tribe of Yaeh Gaw intercepted the hunting party. While the rest of the hunting crew suffered severe losses, including the mortal wounding of Isilithai's father, Isilithai retreated. A tactical decision on his thinking, but turned for the worse when he returned with the news.

After relaying his story with earnest, his clan discarded him. Alone and without honor, he contemplated commiting to the life of Guwani. He decided against it eventually, instead taking on a fake clan name, and collecting what funds he had, to the nearest Sol Alliance Recruitment offices. Signing up as a base soldier, he payed for and recieved an ROTC course in which he retained his life-long Unathi honor, but learned new human ways and concepts of warfare. After some time of being a small time warden officer on a small backwater station, he left the Sol Alliance and applied at a job at NanoTrasen. Years of being a security officer and warden later, his application for Head of Security was finally accepted, and he was stationed aboard he NSS Aurora.

What do you like about this character? This character is really nothing too unique. Generally I develope backstories as I begin to 'learn' the personalities of my characters, so I come up with generic backstories to set their initial 'personality path' in the beginning. This is one of this generic stories. I hope to build Isilithai up in the future.

How would you rate your role-playing ability? I would rate my roleplaying skills to be average, or slightly above.

Notes:

[kingmatt9]

+1 cause covvies is a great RPer, and I think he's competent enough to doit. #basedcovert4lyf

[BeeGee0904]

+1. Character seems solid and Covert is exceptional in his roleplaying. Hopefully I can learn something about playing an Unathi from him when this gets passed.

[hivefleetchicken]

This guy is great.

So great.

He adds a lot to every round with his presence, and having him as an Unathi would quadruple his egotistical bullshitty... HGDRHHRGHSUG.

He can definitely handle and Unathi role, essentially.

+1.

+1, can provide interesting roleplay and even if it's not canon how he was a part of the unathi kidnappers, he played a fantastic unathi.

I've both talked and RPed with Covie for quite a bit of time, longer than many of you guys have even played on Aurora. He has provided a plethora of enjoyable and memorable RP experiences, and, has made my personal experience very pleasant. With entertaining characters that I see few equals to on Aurora, let alone SS-13. Out of anyone, I'd say Covie definitely deserves this whitelist. +1

A reminder that just a "+1/-1" does not count with a very short sentence on why you think a person needs a whitelist. An extended explanation as to why a person is a decent enough RPer to deserve such a whitelist, say, maybe more than an incomplete sentence or two, should suffice... pretty please.

That being said. Covert's a very interesting person to begin with. While more often than not he gets BTFO'd and drunk AF during the late hours, thus leading to some even more interesting situations, Covvy himself is a very competent RPer and can make quite unique situations when he feels up to it in-game. I'm perfectly confident he'll be able to roleplay an Unathi. Plus one, sir. Plus, one.
