Character Information
Name of the Synth Character you wish to play River
What is your Synthetic's Personality? River is a spiritualist, vegan, one with the universe, hippy. River is "newage".
River loves nature; River talks about natural remedies to medics that ask for custom meds; River loves to "go with the flow" when asked what he is doing; River advocates nonviolence and getting along when people are arrested; River advocates a "celebration of being" at the memorial after the marines have been wiped.
Basically River is any dude from California with long hair who talks about "breathing techniques" and hosts Yoga classes.
I want to emphasis though that I am not a full "hippy" because I will have 0 drug use or advocacy of drugs. River is more likely to recommend sunlight and "deep breathing". Nothing Pot related. Falling back on drugs would be boring.
River will definitely talk about Marines being vaporized in bad OBs as "being one with the sun and nature and that is beautiful".
River might get BE'ed for saying "far out" too much.
Why do you want to be a synthetic/why should we whitelist you? My answer remains the same as last time.
I was one of the most played synth players for a long time. I was on track to get the purple ribbon 2nd overall. There is nothing quite like it.
As for the rest
I made mistakes as synth and I played sloppy. My mistake was playing nothing BUT synth when I should have taken a break and been a marine at times. I wont be making that mistake again.
Even so I think most people know for every bad place I messed up, there were good things too. My delisting was not for anything that was removal worthy on its own... just bad play over time. I just need to tighten up the bad parts.
I admit I am silly and play silly; this is a game. I may be immature at times but I am never malicious. I have been playing for over 4 years on the server. I have never been banned once, ever. I have never been job banned. I have been a mentor continually for 3 years. My notes are primarily goofy and dumb; but the list isnt as bad or as long as some people. For those that would say I may not be a good fit for synth; there are synths and councilors who do not have a clean as record as I do. And I don't think anyone has reapplied, and retried to get back on the list as much as I have.
Believe it or not it has been 20 months since I was delisted. Closing in on 2 years. I reapplied monthly and was denied 7 times in a row, then took a break. I reapplied as a new character 5 months ago and was denied. I've spoken with you all about this. There are people who have started playing, made staff, been fired, and banned in the time it's taken for me to continue to try to get relisted. This alone should show my dedication.
I know that I rallied against council for a while, I raged, etc. But we are on the verge of that literally being years ago. I needed time to shake my reputation as a synth. In 20months... only the vets even remember Felix anymore.
What is your most memorable interaction with a synthetic? The knights of the round table event with other synths.
A certain "human meat" event.
When I won a poetry contest as synth so they expanded the closet into a bedroom.. but it was in space tiles so marines visiting me froze to death.
Synthetic Character Story
Experience
How familiar are you with Engineering? Very. I have 174 hours as synth from the time it was tracked and many more hours before that. I used to hardwire the old SMES together.
I need to brush up on some of the recipes but know the rest by heart still.
How familiar are you with Command? Good, I was put on overwatch a lot as synth. I prefer SO to anything else but I play alot of warden and some SEA. I dont really like commanding though to be honest.
How familiar are you with Medical? Extremely. I considered myself a "medical" synth when I still was one. After that I have more hours into doctor and medic than anything else.
I primarily play doctor now and teach.
How familiar are you with Requisitions? Very, though I will admit it is not my favorite. I think it's honestly more boring than overwatch.
What are some scenarios that you can perform combat in? Give us a brief example. Combat should be avoided, try not to be anywhere you can get caught. Warrior grabs and flings are particularly dangerous.
If it cannot be avoided because you are cornered or you have to defend a marine, it should be to the point of driving the xeno off. So you can flee.
If you are in the line you should prioritize helping marines, like shaking them, and dragging; Let them take care of the xenos.
Delta alert, prioritize saving marines, but kill xenos.
