[Denied] phantomwolfZero's Head Of Staff Application.

[phantomwolfZero]

BYOND key: phantomwolfZero

Character names: Leo Veulf, Stephanous Veulf, Zero

How long have you been playing on Aurora?: I first joined Aurora station around October of 2015.

Why do you wish to be on the whitelist?: I want to further develop my characters, I want to cement their personalities and experiences. One of my characters in particular always strives to assist the station in any way, and this is just the next step for him.

Why did you come to Aurora?: I was really feeling that there should be a more serious server to play on, I was tired of the insanity that was hippie or other loose RP servers, I wanted the true fun of becoming a character.

Have you read the BS12 wiki on the head roles you plan on playing?: I've read all of the job descriptions several different times for reference.

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: Role-playing is the amazing ability to step out of your own shoes and into those of someone else. You become this "character" with all of their own memories and feelings, the good times and the hardships. True role-playing is an experience like no other.

What do you think the OOC purpose of a Head of Staff is, ingame?: To assist the lower ranking crew as well as their superiors. Their job is to help maintain the order of the game whether that be in their designated station, or assisting with other necessary roles that are not filled at that moment. They should always foremost be focused on helping the round stay on track, and the station in one piece.

What do you think the OOC responsibilities of Whitelisted players are to other players, and how would you strive to uphold them?: If anyone has a simple question that would be easier to answer as another player than as someone seemingly unreachable like a mod or an admin. They should provide plenty of feedback on the forums to help other players to better tune their characters and reach the goals they themselves are striving for. Other players should also be able to look to them as a great example of how to role play and engage other characters.

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

Character name: Leo Veulf

Character age: 30

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

Even as a young child Leo always wanted to assist others, even if he was overly skeptical of them. He was never one to let another person suffer if he could avoid it in anyway, being as he did not speak until he was ten, he understood struggle. His drive to help others led him to get into plenty of fights as a child. As soon as he turned 16 he joined up with the recruits loyal to nanotrasen. He started off being an errand boy for the security officers but soon enough he was a cadet himself. All his life he wanted to help people, sure he had plenty of medical training from his grandfather Stephanous, but he felt he could protect more people with the security. After five years Leo had impressed the higher ups within Nanotrasen so much, they placed him in a detective position; which became the start of a whole new world for him.

Sure enough, Leo ran into trouble working a case in which their had been a break-in. He thought nothing of the shattered windows around the security office, he figured someone was intoxicated and took out some rage on security. As soon as he stepped through the shattered window he was stuck in the back of the head with a heavy metal object. He awoke roughly nine minutes later missing his right arm. He was not bothered by the fact that Nanotrasen refused to give him any leave of work; he walked into med bay the next day for a check up, that night he was put under, and given a state of the arc Xion Manufacturing Group prosthetic. He still continued his work as a detective, and was re-assigned to the Aurora Station where he is doing his best for the station, and Nanotrasen. He has been cleared with med bay so that if he receives injuries too severe, he will have his brain implanted into a cyborg so as to help the station and its crew after death.

What do you like about this character?: He is very loyal, and always friendly to others, even if he is overly skeptical.

What do you dislike about this character?: He aggravates me very much because if he deems someone to be trust worthy, he almost never doubts a single word they say, and that has back fired on him plenty of times.

What do you think makes this character fit to be a head of staff?: His never ending loyalty to Nanotrasen and his stations crew is one point. Leo has always wanted to do what ever he could to assist others, even when he could not verbally communicate and I believe that his understanding of others, despite his skepticism, will be a great asset if he is made a head of staff. He also has plenty of years of education under his belt, ranging from medicine and robotics to sign language from when he was mute, so he is able to relate to most.

Please provide well articulated answers to the following questions.

How would you rate your own role-playing?: I hate to brag about myself, so I will attempt to keep this brief. On a scale from 1-10 with 10 being amazing, I would honestly have to say a 7. I am an actor at the Pittsburgh Renaissance Festival, so I am always learning and improving my role playing skills. Plus, playing DnD often helps as well.

Extra notes: If you need me to clarify anything I would be more than happy to, or if you need to reach me immediately.

Bumping a third thread that was trapped in the backlog. Are you interested in the head of staff application still?

[phantomwolfZero]

Yes I am very much indeed still interested in my Head of Staff application. I generally check it twice a week to see if someone responded : P

[coolbc2000]

Hey mate, I have not seen your characters at all before. How often/ when do you play?

[phantomwolfZero]

I used to play 1 to 2 rounds every other day, sometimes at least a full round every day. The weekends I am usually on much more though. These past two weeks have been midterms for me so I have been more focused on exams than anything. You should definitely see Leo back to his regular routine,

I am generally on after 4pm est, till about 10 pm.
