[Zjaum]

NS Name: Zjaum
Char Name: Dr. Phillip Legg
Gender: Male
Appearance:
Bio: Doctorate in Chemistry, minor in Biology, specialty in pheromones. Unable to serve during WWII because of a limp during early adulthood, which he used to his advantage. No longer having to compete with academic rivals, he rose quickly through the ranks of his university, ultimately ending with a leg up over his veteran competition once they returned from defeating Hitler. He ultimately ended up teaching the veterans, gaining quite the reputation- though, not necessarily the best kind.
Role: Researcher (here for everything outside verbal communication)
Equipment: Kit for harvesting samples, portable chemical lab (bottles of acids, litmus paper, etc), portable biological lab (forceps, incision tools, etc)

Optional
Personality: He's morally superior to you. He's mentally superior to you. In every way except physical, he's better than you. But he'll play along with your little games; why not?
Likes: Ragtime, insects (especially butterflies), arachnids, unlimited power, chocolate truffles
Dislikes: War talk, stupidity in any form, babies, loud noises

Accepted, because of his personality I would call him an asshole, but, the fact he likes insects got me to the like this guy side

Who says he can't have one foot planted firmly in both personas?

[Ayvalon]

Trying to decide on a solid background for security, WW2 OSS or perhaps CIA agent somehow seems appropriate, after all who better to have in a deniable research facility than a die-hard American patriot who may or may not have taken part in deniable operations in the big dubya 2.

He hates that I Roleplay in the Present Tense because I am roleplaying the Actions I am doing not the actions I have done. He started B***hing at me on the OOC for Welcome to Calmora and I put him on my ignore list. if he wants to leave because someone roleplays differently from him let him. its his loss. I am not gonna change how I roleplay because I write it as what I am doing not what I have done.

You do know intelligence agencies lie to each other right?

Also they wouldn’t know the full scope of the project because it’s possible these scientists wouldn’t know they exist. They know there’s aliens, that’s why they sent him, to directly gather information.

I'm going to try to finish my app today. I was also thinking about having my character do engineering as well as math, since math by itself seems pretty useless here. But since there is already somebody who knows mechanical engineering, I probably won't.

Maybe I can add advanced zoology and biology. Someone should know something about dissecting alien corpses.

Sorry I was watching TheXPGamers on youtube when I was writing out my app. and He is former airforce and he worked on airplane engines.

Hey, that's no problem. We need someone with mechanical engineering and you beat me to it. I suppose I could also have my character do it too and we would have to work together.

But alien dissection also sounds interesting to RP... What to do?

Okay, but, I would get why FBI or CSI could send a guy in there, but, NSA is, National Security Agency, they would be informed of the whole project and possibly oversee parts of it

And he's not alone. It's annoying to read the story and then someone breaks the form that everyone else uses. Overall I think past tense is slightly better then present tense because time skips and flash forwards/backwards come in more natural but having an unholy mix of past and present tense is worse then either.

After all, you are not describing your actions but the actions of your character. You are the author. And your character is not doing the action we just imagine he does and as the author you can use whatever tense works best.

As long as you don't also write in the first person, I guess I won't quit over such a thing but still I urge you: You are just writing it once but then 5 or 6 or so people have to read it, so please think of your readers and use the same tense then everyone else it using.

I’ll work on it. DHS and Department of Energy counterintelligence weren’t formed yet, so it’ll be hard.

Can I be a KGB Sleeper agent disguised as a security guard at the base?

That would be hilarious but would break the roleplay in so many ways.
