LordBalkara Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 (edited) BYOND Key: lordbalkara Character Names: Dave Carlson, Frank Richards, Cooper Milne, Maria Martinez. When a synthetic, B0B-OS, or something with 316 in it. Species you are applying to play: Diona What color do you plan on making your first alien character (Dionaea & IPCs exempt): N/A Have you read our lore section's page on this species?: Yes 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: I played it once, by spawning as a Diona Nymph. I found the experience enjoyable. The name I used under "Character Name" (see below) was this character's name. I also thought the roleplay was interesting. SS13 had kind of gotten stale, but being an entirely new species made it interesting again. Identify what makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a Human: Well, for one, the game mechanics themselves mean my behavior must be different. After all, a human wouldn't have to worry much about lighting, and would be much faster than me. Whereas I can't move very fast, and lighting for me can be the difference between life and death. A human has to worry about air and food, whereas I am fine without both, as long as I have light. I can split into multiple creatures, or become an entirely new one as a nymph. As for more lorebased things, I'm an amalgamation of many, as opposed to a single individual, meaning I shouldn't see myself as/act like an individual, but rather as a well coordinated group. I have little emotion. This kind of speaks for itself. Character Name: Piles of Red Fruit Please provide a short backstory for this character, approximately 2 paragraphs Born on the station himself, he is fairly familiar/intimate with the station. It has some meaning to him, and as such he wishes to work on it. Starting out as a simple assistant, he hopes to learn much, and that maybe one day he could take on a more important role in the station. (I would put more, but, I mean, what is there to say? He was born on the station a shift or two ago, he hasn't exactly gone on a soul searching journey.) What do you like about this character? Well, I like that instead of simply popping into existence, with everything about where he came from being so much fluff, that I actually got to see him come into being, in the form of a nymph. How would you rate your role-playing ability? 3/5 I try to avoid metagaming or breaking character, but I will occasionally do something goofy (Read placing banana peels around as botanist). Notes: If I messed something up, let me know. First time writing an application. Edited May 16, 2017 by Guest Link to comment
SleepyWolf Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 The 'Character names' at the top is supposed to be all your characters you currently have, not the one you're applying for. So, list off your current characters so people know who you play currently and can help find out if you're Good. Link to comment
