Halo: Penumbra (OOC / ON HIATUS)

[New Finnish Republic]

I think we should try to move forward to the next mission to avoid a stagnancy from forming.

[Radea]

Would it be odd if someone came along and took over that Pvt. Napier NPC?

You'd still be required to make an app and go through th ed process, so why not just make your own character that you'd have creative freedom over?


Also, I'll see to posting come monday.

You make a fair point, but I figured that since he was already a minor NPC (which I didn't SEE another player post for him), I could just take his name and spot and flesh out his details.

But I see what you mean.

[Turmenista]

Also, I'll see to posting come monday.

Can't wait.

[Beiarusia]

Posted. Ship has gone into orbit and, after being given an assignment, into Slipspace. Quasar will be arriving to the Himalaya star system in fourteen days, so some of you may choose to go into cyro for the trip.

[The Grand Force]

Jackson's going into Cryo. Any specifics about the plant or the system's we should know that wasn't mentioned?

Himalaya is a relatively unknown system that I doubt anyone would know much about other than the UNSC had an outpost on it (though people with ties to ONI may know that it was a weapons testing facility). More information would be given once they near the end of the slipspace journey.

[The Grand Force]

Thank you, now back to writing that post.

PSYCH EVALUATION:
Brayden is a young, brilliant technician, who focuses on the target at hand. Expects satisfactory results. Does not tolerate orders that results in the death of a close friend. Has a strong hate of the covenant and any alien lifeform

BIOGRAPHY: Brayden Watkins was born on the UNSC Vigilance, to Captain Miranda Watkins and Lieutenant Drake Watkins. As a child, he always dreamed of following his parents footsteps and being strong just like them.

He then enlisted for the academy on Reech, working hard, and graduated as a full fledged technician. After his graduation he was assigned to a small recon post far out along the UNSC border, where his life was changed.

While he was there, he worked alongside a group of techs who were usually unkind to new members of their group. At first, Brayden was shoved along and pushed around, but as months passed by, he got along well with the group, and even fell in love with their leader. All was well, until the covenant invaded. Brayden was trapped by a massive Hunter in the corner of the docks where he thought he might've died, until his mother came by and blocked a plasma blast from the Hunter. Brayden managed to escape, but he felt ashamed at the death of his mother, that would burn a hole in his heart for the rest of his days.

None the less, he still managed to pass along and even got to the rank of captain, hoping he could avenge his dead mother at the hands of the covenant....

RP EXAMPLE:

DO NOT REMOVE: Gillian-013

1. Fraternization will result in a change of post, and pregnancy will result in a change of post for obvious reasons. Being born on a military ship by military personnel isn't possible.
2. It's Reach, not Reech.
3. All ships have AIs and any technicians performing the acts like that would be reprimanded by the CO and it would stop immediately.
4. Family members are barred from serving in the same units, and a UNSC Navy Captain wouldn't be on the frontline.
5. That hunter blast has two variants, one is about the size of a car, and is explosive.,they can vaporize Warthogs (the vehicle, not the animal) in a single blast, so he'd be dead along side his mother. The second variant it a beam, so he'd be dead as well. Not to mention that Hunters always come in pairs and even super-soldiers hesitate when faced with the possibility of fighting them.

NAME: Brayden Watkins

Still DENIED. Image/Appearance is still lacking. Concerning the Bio, his mother at the very least would not have been on the ship what with maternity leave and all that, which would no doubt still be a thing in the future if not even more important considering the need to keep the population up, so why risk a pregnant woman in a war. Also, his parents being on the same ship would probably be grounds for fraternization. You spelleed Reach wrong. His mother is a Navy captain so unlikely to be on the ground, and that plasma blast would tear through her, you, and whoever was behind you (Hunters can take down tanks, after all). A Navy Captain would also be in charge of their own ship usually as opposed to second-in-command. Could also go into depth about where the battle was, why he was on the ground if he was Navy, etc. Also, we know he has a family, so your family would not be listed as Unknown.

Ok, I redid my app.

Allow me.

A: Get a picture or delete the code for an image. If you delete the code, I EXPECT two paragraphs detailing face, body type, scars, casual clothing he wears, jewelry, things like that. Full sentences, too.

B: A Captain of the Army should not be in BLACK. A Captain of the Navy should come nowhere near to being in BLACK.

C: His Family is not unknown. He is UNSC personnel and therefore government property. He knows they exist, therefore the UNSC knows they exist. Fill that in.

D: Psyche Evaluation should be longer and with full sentences. Is he religious? Is he an asshole? How does he deal with liars? Does he accept 'acceptable casualties' as an excuse? Does he hide his mistakes or own up to them? In what ways is he cruel? In what ways is he ignorant? It says he's brilliant and also says he's ignorant. Explain that.

E: "Brayden Watkins was born on the UNSC Vigilance, to Captain Miranda Watkins and Lieutenant Drake Watkins." Carnal interactions between officers are NOT allowed under any circumstances. In fact I would expect that Captain to be fucking sacked out of his command and busted-down a rank or five. Furthermore, birth control or abortion still exists for members of the military and IF such a disgraceful thing occurred I would be nearly sure they would have implemented it.

F: "He then enlisted for the academy on Reech, working hard, and graduated as a full fledged technician." 'Reach' you mean. Also, does this mean he enlisted or became a damn officer? Choose which. Furthermore, inform us as to the nature of this recon post out along with the UNSC border.

G: "...and even fell in love with their leader." Carnal relations between lower ranks and upper ranks are strictly forbidden. What was the nature of this relationship.

H: " Brayden was trapped by a massive Hunter in the corner of the docks where he thought he might've died, until his mother came by and blocked a plasma blast from the Hunter. Brayden managed to escape, but he felt ashamed at the death of his mother, that would burn a hole in his heart for the rest of his days." What kind of hippie lovey-dovey crap is this? I thought he was out on the UNSC border, not in an area where his damn MOTHER is. Furthermore, blocking a Hunter plasma shot with a human body does not work. It will go straight through.

I: "...he still managed to pass along and even got to the rank of captain..." You do not simply become a Captain by passing along, especially in a damn warzone! This is the Human-Covenant War, not a damn picnic between conflicts for people watching the seniority boards! Battles and ships, name them and what the hell your Captain did.

J: RP sample. Give one. If you can't then spoiler a prospective post.

NAME: Montag, Gui
BIRTHPLACE: Luxor, Eridanus II, Eridanus System
SEX: Male
AGE/DoB: 35 (2519)

APPEARANCE:

6'7 (200 cm), 266 lbs (120kg). A large amount of Maori tattoos across his body. Laughlines and crows feet are evident, if obscured by his facial tattoos. A number of scars are evident despite the use of dermacotic steroids in the recovery process. Several unfilled gaps in his bodily modifications indicate a more traditional origin.

His BDU contains several elements of his Hellbringer uniform, including UA shoulder pauldrons, a reinforced fuel tank, a fold down UV shield, and a hazmat rebreather. Maori marking decorate the exterior in white stencil.

RANK: Corporal
PREVIOUS ASSIGNMENT:

15th Shock Troops Battalion (ODST), Hellbringer Squad Charlie

PSYCH EVALUATION:

As per the usual for Hellbringer Squads, Corporal Montag underwent extensive psychological evaluation after each combat engagement he participated in. And in each assessment he was cleared for duty. Despite his rather brutal role, Corporal Montag keeps a cheery demanour, likely a result of his overt yet non-denominational spirituality. Fluent in Maori.

INFO:

Corporal Montag's career began in 2531 after his home of Eridanus II was glassed, lying about his age to enlist, byt the time it was caught, the man was already deployed into the thick of the Harvest campaign. Montag is a Veteran of over 20 combat engagement, and his apparent luck has yet to run out. Corporal Montag is a rather proficient Covie killer, and given his size and physique, the extra bulk of the flamethrower and storage tanks he uses slows him little. Rather amiable to all members of his squad, he usually offers both moral support and spiritual support, acting as a form of chaplain despite his direct combat role.

Do soldiers have to go into cryo if they don't want to?

[Turmenista]

Posted. Ship has gone into orbit and, after being given an assignment, into Slipspace. Quasar will be arriving to the Himalaya star system in fourteen days, so some of you may choose to go into cyro for the trip.

Given Bradley's psych eval from his app, I don't think sleeping in a cryotube would be his most favorite thing to do. It's optional, of course, right?

It might be standard procedure on most UNSC vessels, especially for elongated trips, but for fourteen days i guess some people might want to avoid some of the negative effects it can inflict.

In smaller transits like this, yes. But if it takes several months or years it's mandatory.
