Part B: Role Playing Experience Questions
1.) What does the Term "IC-OOC Separation” mean to you?
It is the line between reality and fantasy that is very important. It’s and understanding that what I know OOC shouldn’t be used in IC just because I know it. It’s also the basic term that I play the game, the game doesn’t play me.
2.) What is the difference between the term Player and Character?
The player is the person on the other side of the screen, I always describe my character as a digital puppet, and my Puppet is what I give life to.
3.) What is Meta-gaming?
Meta-Gaming is when you use OOC information that you wouldn’t normally use in an In game situation, In my opinion it’s a form of cheating.
4.) What are Action Brackets? (:: :: | - - |* *| )
They are symbols marking Action in an ig statement, often used when the /emote command isn’t available for use.
5.) How long have you been playing Star Trek Online?
Just got my Hundred days! *happy dance*
6.) How long have you role played in general?
Jeeze another one of those questions that make me feel old, I have been Rping for eighteen years, starting with Table top, than moving on to RP enforced Muds (Harshlands, and Shadows of Iseildur) after that I moved to MMOs where I engaged in many Heavy Rp guilds a small selection being Virtue sever on CoX, Blackwater Raiders in Wow and Age of Conan. (in a heavy Rp Stigian Guild) I was recently very active in a heavy Rp sim on second life that involved mediated Rp. (Legacies 1872 a Dark themed Victorian RP group in which Rp was mandatory and enforced)
7.) What was your last role playing experience?
Last night in our heavy Rp table top, I am in 2 Rp intensive Dark Heresy games each set in two different dynamic Settings (one is a Post apocalyptic setting the other in the Warhammer 4 0K world in an imperial guardsmen unit)
8.) What are your expectations of this fleet?
I am looking to be in a truly Immersive Rp group that truly embraces the Setting to help grow my characters story with a myriad of experiences.
9.) What will you bring to this fleet?
An avid and enthusiastic Rper who is looking to mix and advance with other like minded people, and hopefully my own talents and storylines will help enrich the experience of everyone.
10.) How do you feel about PVP?
PVP for PVP’s sake is just a boring endless quest that I have found really doesn’t do anything for the story of a character, now if it’s part of a storyline than I’m all for it anything to enhance the Drama of the scene as it were. (and by drama I don’t mean the you know bad kind ; ) )
11.) What difficulty do you typically play Star Trek Online on?
Depending on my mood I play at Advanced to Elite, on my RA I spent most of my level progression on Elite, if I’m soloing I just go on normal so I can continue on with the story missions.
12.) Do you understand that all role playing is conducted locally?
Yes indeed.
13.) Do you know how to roll dice on Star Trek Online? (If so what is the command?)
I didn’t know I could do that until I got to this application, but if someone can tell me I have no problem with using Rolls.
14.) Do you have experience with Star Trek Role Play?
I used to belong to a play by post group a long time ago as an Andorian Tactical officer, which was a wonderful time. I am looking forward to going back into it.
15.) Do you have alts in other fleets? (If so which fleet are we sharing you with?)
I don’t have an Alt in another fleet, but I do have an Alt that I play when my husband and I just want to mess around and blow things up, if you don’t see me on senika you can find me on her.
Section 02 – OOC Character Inquiry:
(All these questions are to be answered as player about the character you wish to play. It is best that you review daedalusomega.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=rphandbook before answering.)
Part A: Character Request
1.) Character name?
Zotha
2.) Character gender?
Female
3.) Character race?
Ferengi
4.) Is your character a telepath? (Alien telepath characters are subjected by GM approval)
No
5.) Character class?
Science Officer
6.) Character STO level?
Lt 4
7.) Select an fleet entry level rank. (Ensign, Jr Lieutenant, Lieutenant)
Jr. Lieutenant
8.) What is your basic character concept & history?
After being in a disastrous traditional relationship, she was rescued by the Ferengi female League and smuggled off the planet and placed on Earth to recover and learn some useful skills besides chewing the food for males. Once it was found she had a preternatural talent for mathematics she started going to the Local Collage to help with her immersion into a more equal society she was enrolled in the Math program at Duke University where she graduated with her Bachelors, she then moved forward, realizing how numbers work in everything, not just profit, this turned her interest to Theoretical Physics where she Got her PHD. Now armed with a powerful Degree she needed to find a place to use it, considering her heroes had never been to the stars, she applied to Starfleet and was accepted as a member of their Quantum Mathematics research branch where she has made a specialty out of Black Holes and Graviton Fields and having a passing fancy with Chrono-mathematical research.
9.) What kind of commission does your character have? (Enlisted, Petty Officer, or Officer) Petty Officer
10.) Desired ship type of ship you'll be wish to be assigned too? (Tactical, Science, or Cruiser). I am Looking to Be transferred to the Adiago
11.) Please give a little background about this character.
She’s a Liberated Ferngi woman still learning about the world aro und her, her time on her home world was controlling and confining to say the least, going from a traditional family to a tradional five year lease, she was profoundly unhappy t ill she found the outside world and more importantly was shown that numbers are more than just ledgers. She’s still a little awkward in social situations but warms up once she gets to know them, to men that she meets on first sight she is prickly to say the least, with no real interest in them. (for now)
12.) Please describe what Merit System is. It is a scale of participation that shows when someone has merit to be promoted in the ranks, something I actually like very much.
13.) Has this character been enrolled in a fleet prior? (nope I am a member of this fleet though on the character Senika)
14.) What are your aspirations for this character? Casual RP (I am just here to RP) or Competitive (I want to be an Admiral some day!) We will have to see what evolves though Rp J As far as right now, I will have to say casual Rp and see how things evolve from there.
15.) What are strengths, weakness, and flaws in this character’s personality?
Her Greatest asset is her determination, she has worked very hard for a long time to get where she could, She has an odd relationship with numbers, she looks at them as her refuge from the scars of her past. Not a tragic figure in the least, she was just in a very traditional Ferengi household both growing up and in marriage. Because she believed that this was just how things were, she learned to endure, even though her Father leased her to a business associate t hat was abusive both physically and mentally because she couldn’t conseve a child with her. At this point she is incredibly distrustful of males, but will be polite, but trys to avoid them in social situations. She is also adjusting to a life where profit isn’t important, just taking care of yourself. She also Hate having her lobes touched, and at this stage of her Recovery Oo-Max is out of the q question .
