[Pratepresidenten]

BYOND Key: Pratepresidenten

Character Names: Ben Fisher, M1-X (Android), MASTER (AI).

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: Well, I would like to play IPC because I feel it would be the next step in my journey to develop my android's personality.

I believe that it be a challenging and rewarding experience making the transition from a robust android, to a more delicate and fragile IPC.

Identify what makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a Human: It would be different primarily due to it being a synthetic. It has advantages humans doesn’t have such as immunity to diseases, toxins and pain (Most anyway), and it has disadvantages such as they tend to overheat and their vulnerability to EMP. Another big thing would be that IPCs are pretty low on the acceptance ladder, which surely will result in conflicts from time to time.

Character Name: Mix

Please provide a short backstory for this character, approximately 2 paragraphs

Well, Mix would be the ascended version of M1-X, the bound android. After numerous years of service aboard the Exodus, it has gone from being a mostly autonomous synthetic to a more inquisitive, interacting android.

Its personality has developed over time as it has learned to better interact and even care for the station’s crew. Its preference for serving as a medical synthetic shows that it would seem to enjoy working alongside medical personnel, and being directly able to help the crew.

What do you like about this character?

I like that Mix is curious about its emotions, wanting to become something greater, able to process more complex emotions, humor, sarcasm and generally everything thats present during daily life.

What I also like is that it generally cares a shitload, and will try its best to prioritize crew health and wellbeing above all.

Basically a caring tryhard <3

How would you rate your role-playing ability? Shit, I dunno? 5/10?

Notes:

I had a bit of a hard time on the backstory, due to there not being much backstory to it?

Ech! Im bad at applications and I should feel bad! :3

Thanks for readin’! /o/

Mm, as much as I love M1-X as a station bound unit.. I can't say that four sentences equates to an approximately 2 paragraph backstory for the character. The history is rather bland there - You didn't say anything about where M1-X came from, why M1-X prefers medical, why it's being transferred to a law-bound chassis to an independent IPC, whether or not M1-X is a 'free' synthetic, etc. I'm assuming M1-X falls under the 'Bespoke' category of synthetics as per wiki.

Give us a little more detail in that backstory.

[rrrrrr]

More details would be rad.

[Youbar]

More details would be rad.

[Pratepresidenten]

Ah! Feedback! I'll do my best and provide more detail and backstory when I have the chance.

Thank you!
