[Denied] thewatchmenexploded's Vaurca Worker App

[thewatchmenexploded]

BYOND Key: Watcher032

Character Names: Duke Wentzel

Species you are applying to play: Vaurca Worker

What color do you plan on making your first alien character (Dionaea & IPCs exempt): Blue/Cyan

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 was intrigued about the race's background and it peak my interests on how would it react to it's surroundings and the design of the species is unique, since it is a manual laboring species and thus is locked to any security and/or head position it suits my gameplay well.

Identify what makes role-playing this species different than role-playing a Human: For one thing it's physical and mental roleplaying status is far different of that of a human and due to racist discrimination, the race have a bad reputation of not being wanted on the station so i am expecting it would not receive the same treatment or reaction as a human and since the vaurca workers are used to receive orders from the higher ups in the there hive, it would be pretty much obey anyone who is higher up's , in terms of rank, orders.

Character Name:Ka 'Viax' Katul Zo'ra: Katul, A lowly Bound worker, in a worker body, a vagabond - rejected from his home.

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

Katul is Vaurca worker, well, he used to be, as he is a lot slower than the others, due to he's slow nature he was fired from his job and sooner was kicked out of his home due to lack of a job that is suited for him. due to his situation he became a wanderer or a vagabond, with no job or home to settle on, in his wanderings state, he manages to stumble upon a recruitment center, as he has nothing left, he thought 'why not?', so he decided to sign up and fortunately enough he was accepted but he is yet to know what is in store for him at his new job.

What do you like about this character?

He is a slow yet hard working and very loyal.

How would you rate your role-playing ability? I a scale of 1-10 i would say it would fall to 7 as i am experienced in role playing but in a heavily role playing server not so much, i could at least simply follow rules and easily can be told off if i did something wrong

Even leaving aside whether your proposed backstory fits with my new vision, one thing I haven't changed is the naming system and you completely disregarded it. There's even a heading in the wiki called 'Help with naming.' Please read the wiki carefully, and start again from scratch if you're still interested in applying.

[thewatchmenexploded]

I might have missed that. i noted that and i'll do as you say , i just assumed the naming system of the species with the name of the names of the major hives.

[thewatchmenexploded]

Just a suggestion, since they originated from a hive and in a hive there's many of there species shouldn't there name would be similar to each other?

i have edited his name and BG story i hope this is acceptable, if not, i'll try again.

First off, the color doesn't work. There are specific rules about what colors Vaurca can be, which are listed on the wiki page. Second, Bound Viax are essentially robots; they don't wander or look for work on their own. Third, even if you interpret your app as being for an Unbound, there's still the fact that Vaurca don't exile their people for any reason; their bodies and implants are too valuable. I would accept this if your character felt foolish and unwanted and thus ventured out of its own accord, but being banished isn't in the cards.

Fourth and finally, I'm very hesitant about the fact that this is your first post; I myself have never seen you in game. If you make the appropriate fixes to your application and you get some people to +1 you, then I'll consider it.

[thewatchmenexploded]

Oh thank you for the correction, i will make friends in the server, since it's very hard to find time for me to play ss13 specialy a heavy RP server, i'll try applying in a later date, i know ignorance is not an excuse but please forgive me this time if i wasted your time.

Your long name keeps breaking the forum HTML formatting. How do you plead?

[thewatchmenexploded]

Innocent? i guess? i didn't know that a long user name will break it, i am so sorry , i picked the first thing that came into my head.

[Scheveningen]

It's cool, I'm just kidding.

Do you think you could go a bit further with your Vaurca's backstory? It would reflect better in terms of how you understand the established lore and you believe a Vaurca ought to be roleplayed.
