How long have you been playing on Aurora?: More than 6 months now

Why do you wish to be on the whitelist?: Playing Head of Staff is an interresting challenge, where you have to lead either a Departement or the whole station.

Why did you come to Aurora?: I was switching between two server back then. One day, they got shut down, and I was looking for another server with some real roleplay. And then I found Aurora.

Have you read the BS12 wiki on the head roles you plan on playing?: Yes. (and almost all of the wiki.)

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 entering a "character" and all of his emotions, knowledge and mannerisms. You have to think and act like your character does, and according to his background. Considering that you are "him", You are limited to the knowledge he has acquired, meaning that you can't use OOC information you have seen. (I.E. Even if you know the whole wiki, That doesn't mean that an Engineer should be able to do the job of a Robotist.)

What do you think the OOC purpose of a Head of Staff is, ingame?: The Head of Staff is the one in charge of his Departement, and must be able to do the job of anyone in said departement. He's also the one that get his departement working, by either giving work to his staff, approving request, and doing some of the most important Paperwork. The Head of Staff other important roles is, with other Head of Staff, take care of any problem or threat to the station, and should think before doing anything.

What do you think the OOC responsibilities of Whitelisted players are to other players, and how would you strive to uphold them?: The Head of Staff is a role model for his staff, and have to coordinate his team.

He's the only one that can make his departement reach maximum productivity peaks. However,in case of a major problem related to his departement, He's the one that will have to respond and take full responsibilities.

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

Character name: Stanislas von Kurgebergst

Character age: 42

Please provide a short biography of this character (approx 2 paragraphs):

Stanislas, otherwise known as Stan to his friends, comes from an Aristocratic family. He aspired to be a scientist in his youth, and extensively trained in courses relating to telescience, anomalies, and robotics. At the age of 18, he applied for an apprenticeship at a company exploring and testing the limits of robotics, and it was there that he assembled his first cyborg. Shortly after, however, a failed coups d'état attempt escalated into a civil war, leaving the country divided and the economy stifled. The company cut its losses and fired redundancies such as Stanislas, and he was forced to find work elsewhere. For the remainder of the war, his time was spent treating injured with basic medical skills he'd acquired, and repairing prosthetic limbs in return for food, water, and a limited stream of income from donations. Stanislas's opportunity to learn further into the field of science was crushed, his knowledge restricted to basic textbooks from childhood schooling, and the limited experience he had during his apprenticeship.

He did acquire a new passion, though: engineering. Stanislas applied to become a part of the government's massive rebuild efforts, his duties initially restricted to manual labour, but over the years he was elevated to a position where he took part in more advanced construction duties, such as rebuilding houses and infrastructure. Just after his 30th birthday, Stanislas was offered a chance to test his abilities in space. Applying some of his limited scientific knowledge, he patched up a singularity engine with a fair amount of difficulty and managed to re-establish power to a dated station which served as an entertainment platform. The operation having taken only half as long as expected, the government noted his abilities and sent him on an advanced engineering course. It explained complicated wire circuits, the physics behind pressure distribution, and advanced construction. Stanislas was applying this knowledge to his next project when Nanotrasen contacted him, giving him a chance to work in a top of the line research station, the NSS Aurora. He disliked their profit based motives, but it offered an undeniable opportunity to expand his abilities even further.

(Thanks to Youbar)

What do you like about this character?: Like me, he love Engineering, and love to yell at people because they aren't working enough !

What do you dislike about this character?: He focused on Engineering too much, And didn't try to explore other activity sector

What do you think makes this character fit to be a head of staff?: As he's old enough (Aged and on work experience),and saw some critical situation (Civil war), He know how to react to most common problem inside a isolated station. (Heat that may lead to mutiny, technical problem, or even critical evacuation procedure.)

Please provide well articulated answers to the following questions.

How would you rate your own roleplaying?: 7/10, I'm not really great with writing Backstories, but I'm actually great with actual "in game" roleplay.

The back story is all over the place, I don't know how I feel about it just yet, neutral for now.

Quick little edit of what I meant by jumping around a-lot: He trained in telescience and robotics, applied for job of scientist, war exploded, he used his anatomy skills from robotics to become a ghetto surgeon, BUT, since his city needed reconstruction from the war, he become an engineer for 6 years.

On a side note, you're currently playing this character as an anomalist right now, so add that to the list of occupations.

As I said, I not really good with backstories (Its not that I don't have any imagination, its just that I lack writing skills.)
