Character Information
Name of the Synth Character you wish to play Clara
What is your Synthetic's Personality? Clara is a limited production run Synth with a focus on assisting in engineering and medical professions which includes psychiatry. As such, Clara is known for her nice and caring demeanor while also being introspective.
Why do you want to be a synthetic/why should we whitelist you? I am applying for the synthetics role as I enjoy being a gap filler. I usually find myself performing roles that few wish to perform. As such I find that the closest experience I got to being a Synth would be a deployed XO as I have both the engineering and medic skillsets. However I lack surgery. I enjoy combat, however I found support roles more therapeutic and found joy in actually helping marines, be it helping a ComTech who is clearly overwhelmed with FOB construction or helping a medic CPR a graveyard to buy them time to pick up as many personnel as possible.
What is your most memorable interaction with a synthetic? I recall an admin event where I was XO and Karen was in the role of a Working Joe who was reportedly hostile. Jean 'Docteur' Corbeau was CMP at the time hence I had ordered Karen's termination and disposal into the ASRS pit to ensure she could not be revived, only to the both of our horror, Karen had somehow crawled back out and was on the loose again, before Jean finally subdued her and incinerated her. While I had limited direct physical interaction with her, I found the situation rather confusing and amusing as the command team panicked regarding her return.
Synthetic Character Story
Experience
How familiar are you with Engineering? I would consider myself decently versed in Engineering, having constructed FoBs as a Bravo ComTech, RTO and SL, also having to repair APCs to ensure power for vendors that I often have to salvage from the colony and repair due to lack of supplies from the Almayer and having to make do. I am also aware of how to hack doors and vendors in the event of a emergency such as a power outage during a Hijack as long as I have the skills and tools. I have also hacked the ASRS while manning Requisitions as a Bravo RTO and SL for the sake of practice. I have also memorized the deployment of the Portable Telecommunications Unit. I am also well versed in the M-557 APC maintenance such as removing of parts for repairs as well as hull repairs.
How familiar are you with Command? As most of my hours are as Executive Officer (Due to me gap filling the lack of CIC) I am well versed in command, knowing how to operate the overwatch consoles, performing announcements, sending supply drops, transmitting messages via the overwatch consoles as well as firing and reloading the Orbital Bombardment System. I am also aware of how to activate the different alerts, when to activate them as well as the different options such as evacuation, ERTs and self destruct.
How familiar are you with Medical? Medical was something I found soothing as I enjoy performing surgery, I am also capable of performing surgery without an operating table as a FOB doc using Oxycodone as a substitute for anesthetics. I also had to fix up marines who were in the middle of surgery when the FOB doctor got dragged off by a lurker using poor substitutes for surgical tools such as a blowtorch to cauterize a wound. I also am capable of giving blood transfusions via syringe and needles especially to the more important roles to get them back in combat instead of just the standard Iron Sugar and food.
Chemistry is something I am capable of, although I do not experiment with different solutions and merely create the basic Chemicals in addition to the ones not found on the Wiki like Iron Sugar. Although I can mix up a basic batch of UNGA on request.
How familiar are you with Requisitions? Requisitions was one of the first few soothing roles I found, having spent many hours as a Cargo Tech before transitioning to Requisition Officer. I am aware of the buzzwords many marines use to describe whatever items they require, as well as their location with the exception of new or LRP marines giving unique terms, one such example was when a marine described Plastic Explosives as "Jeep Stuff" which was the only time I could recall being stumped and confused, however to be fair, so was the whole Requisition Line.
I am also well versed in the processing of manifests as well as approving requests as well as understanding what the marines on the ground require in the FoB crate such as flares and flashlights for lighting. I am also aware of how to juggle the budget as I played Requisitions before the budget update. Hence knowing when to deny certain unreasonable requests by marines, such as a SG gunner demanding I purchase him a new set of SG gear for 10k when the same amount could easily buy 3 stacks of materials. I am also aware what to pack for a last stand hold and what to prioritize with limited time.
What are some scenarios that you can perform combat in? Give us a brief example. For example if I were operating on a marine in the medical bay on LV-624, and a Xenomorph, say a Lurker or Runner entered to cause harm to either myself or my patient, who is sedated and unable to defend me or themselves, I am allowed to attack the Xenomorph in an attempt to kill if it chooses to remain within the Medical Bay or until it retreats, whereas I must then immediately return to treating my patient.
In the event I am attacked while alone, I am allowed to melee it a few times while attempting to escape. However my priority is my self preservation first and not the termination of the Xenomorph.
