Character Information
Name of the Synth Character you wish to play Balthazar
What is your Synthetic's Personality? Balthazar is polite, doesn't like to use contractions and abbreviations and sees every human as a bundle of contradictions that he enjoys watching.
Likes to point out said contradictions.
Thinks the chain of command is important and is fiercely loyal to Officers. He will only change that way of thinking on a case by case scenario of bad leadership or lack of humanity by an Officer.
Is quite stoic and never gives up untill the bitter end. 'There is always hope' is a line he is quite fond of because of the diverse effects it can cause on others.
He likes giving gifts and is programmed to feel a positive feedback when thanked.
[Are you looking for a reliable and loyal Synth? The ever ready Balthazar is the perfect addition to any demanding crew! He is based on the loved white bearded grandfather of his creator.]
Why do you want to be a synthetic/why should we whitelist you? I like to help. I want to do the best I can to help and win. I was Main CMO and AI on TG, so maybe that can paint a picture.
I also got terrible aim and latency problems, so I can't robust my way to victory.
With that said, I played as synthetic races like IPC,Borgs and A.I. because I like imagining "What would an Artificial Inteligence creature do?". I got more time as AI than anything else and I really wished I could play as ARES here hahahahaha.
What is your most memorable interaction with a synthetic? It was Phelan. I was a Delta Spec on my last rocket and after firing it a RAV got out of a corner and managed to swipe me a few times. We were routing. Phelan grabbed me from the ground and managed to run with me while the xenos hunted us. He was doing first aid and then ghetto surgery on me WHILE RUNNING and dodging around xenos and marine firing. I could hear fighting and screams in my critted state with him healing me and finaly woke up in time to die, because they cornered us in the west side of LV-624 river.
Synthetic Character Story Originaly from the USS Diamelen, Balthazar was on the infamous shore leave that resulted in the transfer of its crew to the USS Almayer.
This is in chronological order.
Observing the crew:
"I do believe the way the crew are behaving will cause us no end of trouble."
*Marine slumps near him*
"I love how they destroy themselves like that, everything in the name of 'Fun!'."
Beign pestered by a Sgt for the forth time:
"I am sorry, I cannot grab you another beer, Sergeant. You see I have twelve more marines to heal from their drunken stupor"
*Sergeant says something about never beign able to trust a synth to do what he is told*
"Of course Sergeant, very much like the Privates we got."
Diamelen goes dark:
"Oh, what is it this time?"
*Recieves a call from CO asking to check why the ship has gone dark*
"Yes, I am here Commander. Do I prioritize the marines or the power? "
*CO says the power, he can't shoot darts with no lights*
"Of course, checking the engines."
Fixing the power in Engineering:
*There is a party happening inside the CE's Office*
"Marines, how you managed to throw up over the Chief Engineer's computer when the doors are always bolted and unpowered is beyond me."
*A Smartgunner spills his drink over Balthazar's head*
"And with that I will help you with your hangover last Lance Corporal, and tell the crew how you managed to shit your pants last week cycle."
Coming back to Diamelen's CIC:
*CO is sleeping on the ground after drinking too much as well*
"Ah, like Father like sons. You really are the Commander of this vessel, sir."
*Picks up CO and tucks him in CO's bed*
Experience
How familiar are you with Engineering? Quite familiar. I can fix and build all that is needed at FOB, including Static Comms,Power and APCs. I can also quickly hack doors and I know where the maps machinery like Colony Floodlights and Trijent's Water Treatment are located.
I'm new to OT.
How familiar are you with Command? Many hours as SO and SL. I ask for aSL if I'm a high ranking enlisted if the need for it appears. I believe that a central figure is needed at all times if cohesion is to be maintained.
Planning on tackling XO soon. Wish me luck.
How familiar are you with Medical? I know most common surgeries without having to look anywhere and can make combined surgeries on the same body part. I always play with the wiki open anyway. I've used Ghetto Surgery on other servers but never needed to do it here in CM.
I can make the custom chems every Squad Medics asks for and some.
Managed to never blow myself up even in Research.
How familiar are you with Requisitions? Helped with the Req lines and know my way around round start and late stage deployment supply needs.
Never played as RO though so I never had to make the decisions on what to buy and when.
What are some scenarios that you can perform combat in? Give us a brief example. I can do combat only when: As self-defense, while the Almayer is beign boarded, while I defend others that can't fight, like a downed marine. If there are combat able personel around I am to remain in the side-lines and support the effort from there.
If Im carrying a Critted SL and 2 Lurkers ambush me I am able to fight back for as long as they keep harassing, always trying to disengage and return to a safe place.

Other Information
Do you have anything else you would like to include about your application? This is my first post on the forums. Mainly because I don't like using any type of 'social media'. I know forums isn't social media but it IS a place to put our opinions and visions, and that makes me not want to use it much. Hope that's not a problem.
