[OOC][Open]The Pointless Odyssey of Navi's Gate

[Hothnia]

I'm going to redo my app. I didn't really like it. It felt messy to me, What positions are still needed? I'm not feeling this " technical officer" thing. I have very little know how on tech.

We could use a gunner. Like, fires the weapons on the ships kind of person?

So a weapons officer? I'll take that. Reserve please.

[Spindle]

Brusia and Spindle's apps have been accepted!

Just a few little nit picks for the others.

For GAme, I'm waiting on that second paragraph.

Khasin, really, this is a little thing... but you can't see the stars on Earth. Replace it with sky and we're good.

Judah, everything's great but you got the same problem as GAme. I would really like that second paragraph.

Hothnia, you have a few problems. First, like what Vid said, could you please elaborate on the accent? Second, technical officer is a little vague. We already have two engineers and a hacker. Could you please elaborate on your desired position? Thirdly, your skills are a bit of a mess. Wiring and electronics are already covered by the engineers, coding is Spindle's thing, ranting and being disrespectful aren't skills but more personality things, and basic engineering and medical skills are kind of unnecessary. Could you please be a little more specific on your skills and put them in the format of the other apps? Fourthly, could you use the list function on the equipment? Fifthly, small one here, the old London area is now called New Londinium. Finally, the dialogue for your RP Sample is not properly formatted, meaning if you did format it correctly it would look more like a few lines and one paragraph in the center. For now, I'm going to have to say denied.

Also, to everyone (Even those that have been accepted), I would really prefer that you edit your apps to the point that you were personally recruited by Ana. I hope it's not any trouble, but she wouldn't have fliers out looking for crew nor would she allow her ship to become general knowledge. She would be swarmed with applications, if we're to be honest, and she just wants the best she can get.

Many thankity!

So, I am going to make an app.

But probably tomorrow, I spent most of today working on lore.

It's just that.. this would be the first time I'm actually applying for such a RP, and I have no idea what my character should be.

Are there any positions left? Anything needed in particular?

[Nea Videssos]

On another note, it seems photobucket's just put a spanner in the works by secretly changing their terms of service a few days ago, so all my images get this:

So basically I can't link anything from there unless I go for the most expensive account upgrade and pay £312 a year, and some other people have encountered this same problem.
Essentially, they're doing a similar thing to imageshack, which I used to use before them, and stopped when they made it so I had to get a paid subscription account to upload photos.

I'm definitely moving all my stuff to Imgur now, though I was already using it more and more over the past few months (particularly when Photobucket had a week or two when it kept saying it had an error logging in, and I should "try again" every single time).

Hmmmmmmm...

HMMMMMM...

We could use another security guard? everyone can use a gun, sure, but we only have one that's specialized in hand to hand right now. I think.

Hmm.. it was one of my initial ideas.

I'll probably make that

Unless someone ends up doing another security guard by the time I wake up tomorrow morning, of course

Melee? I like the idea.
What I know is that my character will be Russian, sort of. And by sort of, he should probably be from around Transnistria, or maybe what was once Belarus, who knows.

I would say his family is from that area ethnically or culturally, because not many people live out of the cities. Unless you want him to be, like, ultra survivalist scavenger dood.

Ethnically or culturally, yes, since I have no idea what survived on Earth. But Neo-Tiraspol or Neo-Minsk could be fun.

But I'm thinking that his family died at a certain point, and he joined some sort of a bandit group or something, where he learned most of those melee skills.

Before he was eventually hired by Kuznetsov Incorporated as a security guard.

Minsk wouldn't work, that would be a part of Neo-Kiev. And Tiraspol is too small to be a city in this time line. It would have been abandoned a long time ago in favor of Neo-Kiev.

Then Neo-Kiev it shall be, unless there is a Neo-Moscow or another Neo-Russian city somewhere around

Name: Perinua Vrimsen
Age: 28
Gender: Female
Appearance: 5’3”, 105lbs. Perinua also usually wears shoes that function almost like stilts to compensate for her shorter height, and wears a custom-made pair of gloves.
Position on the Ship: First Mate and Archiver. As the captain is rarely unable to pilot and command the ship, Perinua’s duties usually consist of checking in on crew members, maintaining a functional schedule, and conflict resolution. Because of her effectiveness at keeping tabs on everything, she also takes on the secondary role of maintaining a consistent record of all major motions on the ship, should such information be needed in the future for reference.
Skills: Perinua is extremely skilled with managing and keeping everything running according to plan. In addition, Perinua is adept at maintaining organisation and keeping tabs on all important motions on the ship for the archive. Thanks to her skill in managing, she stands as one of the few who can challenge Celeste in some video games, namely strategic ones which involve planning on large scales.

Her true prides, however, are graphic presentations, and comedy, the former of which is used to illustrate plans for maximum comprehension, and the latter to lighten the mood and keep everyone awake during the aforementioned presentations.
Equipment:

• Heeled shoes
• Custom-made pair of gloves with activate-able electromagnets in each of the fingers and a microprojector at the base of her palm, which is connected directly to her mobile
• Her mobile, which can be linked to the archives contained in the ship’s computers with the simple input of a very long password that Perinua knows by heart
• A notepad and mechanical pencil, where Perinua makes note of anything important to archive later
• Her laptop, which is used almost exclusively for recreational activities
• Eyeglasses, which can display information from Perinua’s mobile

Biography: Perinua came from a rather strange family. Her mother’s family had a great deal of Kekistani heritage, an odd ethnicity which sprung up entirely from nowhere many years ago, and her father's family was more or less a muddle of different European cultures. This evidently created room for a great deal of interesting events throughout her childhood, though none are usually mentioned by Perinua, as she would much prefer discuss more recent matters.

As she made her way through an unorthodox childhood, Perinua constantly looked to the heavens, and felt there was something more than life on the planet earth. For many years, this dream remained a dream, as there had not been a mission to the stars in centuries. Captain Anastasiya changed the world for Perinua with her spaceship. Perinua fought against competent competition for the role, but eventually beat out all her competition. «She wanted it more,» is the general response of those who lost the position to her, which is not an untrue statement.

Her family was understandably suspicious of the idea of their firstborn going to space, but their concerns went unaddressed, as Perinua had already applied, won her choice of position, and begun packing. Now, with her family qualms resolved(mostly), and her equipment packed, Perinua looks to forge a new life for herself among the cosmos, as she had always dreamed.
Personality: At a glance, Perinua seems very calculating, calm, and effective, and, in a professional sense, she is very much deserving of her words, as her ‘on duty’ no-nonsense attitude helps keep everything running smoothly. On her personal side, however, Perinua is extremely possessive of her belongings and stubborn to a fault. Her two most notable negative traits are, however, are usually counterbalanced by her sense of humour and lack of excessive ego. Overall, despite her flaws, she most certainly isn't the worst person to be in charge of reminding others of their duties and occasionally bugging someone for data for the archives.
Theme Song: Splatfest
RP Sample: We've been in more than a few RPs together.

Well for one thing, you linked to the OOC thread. It's no the OPs job to wade through a series of links to find an example of your RP. Try linking to one of your IC posts.

That's not necessarily the only problem. His post sizes are rather small as well (From what I saw when I finally got to the IC posts) and he doesn't seem like the right fit for this RP.

Well, compare that to the posts of the other RPers. I don't really have a firm base of RPing experience, so I was stuck with a crappy OP who didn't really give anything to do with the characters.

B2S4 looked upon the ship that he had helped built. Today was going to be a turning point in his life - he would get to escape this flooded junkyard and ascend to the stars. His true purpose would be fufilled after eight hundred and thirty nine years of waiting.
In his memory banks, he remembered the sun. What the Earth was like before the dust, and before the first Arcs left. The Arcs that he was supposed to be on. He remembered trees, and cities, and new, shiny technology. Now all of that, like the planet itself, was in ruins. People now lived in shells of apartment buildings, or slums. Most of the planet was a desert. Many animals died out, and those that didn't twisted into something unrecognizable when he was created.
B2S4 glanced at the crew that he was about to live with for an indefinite period. Some looked decent, but most of them looked horrible. "We need them," the Captain said. "That doesn't mean we have to want them," B2 replied.
The Captain seemed a bit lazy and incompetent - she made B2S4 do all the hard work - but he had to admit he owed something to her. Without her, he would have probably been doomed for another eight hundred years, and maybe he would have withered away in the sands, his parts salvaged and being put together in other robots - B2 had seen a lot of bits and pieces of his own model in robots built after the Arcs left.
Over his eight hundred years of existence, B2 had travelled all around the world, but he had never liked any of it. Now, however, he had the whole universe to explore. The only thing B2 had to do now was live long enough to enjoy it.
