       --------------------OVERWATCH TRANSHUMAN ARM APPLICATION
       FORMAT--------------------
       1. Steam Name:
       Lucretia Komnenou
       2. Steam ID:
       STEAM_0:1:32004458
       3. How old are you?
       20
       4. What personal qualities do you have that make you suitable
       for a place in the Overwatch faction?
       I've had a long career in roleplay with ability to remember
       complex protocols, act professionally ICly, remain lore-friendly
       in regards to OTA interactions with other transhumans, other
       Union workers, administrators, and CPs.
       5. What is your experience with roleplaying in general?
       I have 7 years of experience with everything from semi-serious
       to hyper-serious RP. I've played as a range of characters from
       citizens, refugees, medics, CPs, CWU workers, OTA, and even
       briefly as Dispatch and CAB.
       6. What other characters do you play?
       Currently only Alouise Gardner, whom I would like to ICly
       volunteer for transhumanization.
       7. How long have you been involved in serious RP?
       Seven years, including since the first days of OpenAura.
       8. How long have you played at Origins?
       Not at all, but I'm willing to dedicate a lot of time into this
       server.
       9. What country and time zone are you located in (please use a
       GMT- or GMT+ modifier)?
       United States, GMT- 5:00
       10. Do you have any experience in any factions at Origins or
       other communities?
       Yes, as stated above. Nearly ever faction save for Vortigaunts
       and large synths.
       11. Have you ever been subject to punishment in a faction for
       doing something wrong OOCly? If so, please explain.
       I have received minor punishments, mainly reminders and
       warnings, related to OOC procedures for logs, ranking standards,
       and differences between server lore.
       12. Do you understand that by being accepted into the Overwatch
       faction, you are bound to the OOC standards?
       Of course.
       13. Do you understand how emotions work within the Overwatch
       Transhuman Arm?
       Transhumans are not entirely void of emotions or personality,
       but are instead heavily brainwashed into unerring loyalty to the
       Universal Union. Their entire moral code has been shifted
       towards a dependency upon the Combine, but they are still
       capable of feeling, individual thought, fear, and anger. This is
       evidenced numerous times throughout the canon such as warnings
       to OTA soldiers that mission failure will result in off-world
       assignment (usually interpreted as a euphemism for either total
       recycling, e.g. painful MMRs and mental changes, or
       deservicement), and exclamations that they will make including
       "shit!" and "Help!"
       14. Do you understand that being apart of the faction requires
       activity?:
       Yes, as said above I'm willing to dedicate lots of time to this
       server.
       15. Give a roleplay example with your Overwatch unit in any
       event you choose. Provide at least fifteen roleplay lines in
       this scenario.:
       A shot rings out in the courtyard, birds flying towards the sky
       in search of escape. The City Administrator falls to the ground
       as a smoking wound bleeds from his head, a single round from a
       rifle.
       OTA-i17.SUNDOWN.813 yells "<:: Shit! 10-99, HVI is down, all
       units move to cover and return fire on 647E elements! No viscon!
       ::>"
       OTA-i17.SUNDOWN.813 dashes for the cover of a stone bench,
       throwing themselves behind it and steadying themselves before
       peeking overhead, resting their OSIPR on the sturdy piece of
       cover as they send short, accurate bursts of pulse rifle fire
       towards the anti-citizen elements in the far building.
       A large group of rebels wearing mismatched armour, clothing, and
       symbols charge from the building. They brandish non-uniform
       weaponry ranging from captured AR2s to lengths of wood and pipe.
       Mass amounts of fire rain on the Combine positions, catching an
       OTA in the head with two CPs caught in the crossfire, perforated
       with fire and sent to the ground bleeding.
       OTA-i17.SUNDOWN.813 throws a grenade as they duck behind cover
       again, yelling over their radio "<:: Ripcord, ripcord!
       Overwatch, sector is not secure! We have outbreak of loose
       viromes within 10-20, all units establish a new CP and hold code
       sacrifice! Tag one HVI at my 10-20, request skyshield! ::>"
       The SUNDOWN functionary retreats from the open courtyard,
       covered with pulse rifle and traditional gunfire from
       surrounding OTA and MPF units as the Overwatch forces in the
       zone retreat to fortified locations. An emplacement gun
       activates with a lance of bright light streaking towards the
       charging rebels, the staccato "kow-kow-kow!" of pulse rounds
       ringing into the sky as suppressing fire is laid down at the
       position. Several rebels are mowed down before they can reach
       the benches and trees previously giving cover to the Transhumans
       and CPs.
       OTA-i17.SUNDOWN.813 radios on tac "<:: Dispatch, 647E count is
       approximately 38, request 10-2 on Skyshield deployment. ::>"
       Dispatch radios on command "<:: SUNDOWN Eight-Thirteen, standby.
       Airwatch reports heightened anti-civil activity in your sector.
       Skyshield estimated time of arrival is one minute, thirty
       seconds. All units engage prosecution code; ASSEMBLE, SWORD,
       SACRIFICE. ::>"
       OTA-i17.NOMAD.225 radios on tac "<:: Copy that, Dispatch.
       DAGGER-052 is field promoted to LEADER-1, holding 10-14.
       Engaging virome 647E elements, mounting Hardpoint YELLOW. ::>"
       As the fire from the Overwatch hardpoint increases, more
       reinforcements for the rebels arrive in the form of loosely
       organized refugees and citizens, now numbering in the 90s.
       Dozens die in the first wave as the ill-equipped and
       ill-prepared citizens are caught in the overlapping fields of
       fire from the Combine position.
       OTA-i17.SUNDOWN.813 recoils as they take a pulse rifle round
       directly to the chest, bodypack drained to fifty percent. "<::
       Cover me, bodypack holding at 50%! Go sharp, go sharp! ::>"
       OTA-i17.SWORD.025 yells "<:: We have you covered! Move, move,
       move! ::>"
       A roar fills the air as Skyshield finally arrives, a gunship
       maneuvering past buildings and into the massive open area. It's
       met with shouts and wails of terror from the refugees as the
       more organized rebels gather their forces and open fire with
       anything from SMG grenades to RPG rounds. One lucky hit manages
       to strike the gunship as it just enters before it sprays a wild
       burst with its heavy pulse cannon, catching a heavily armoured
       rebel in the chest and detonating a cache of heavy explosives
       they were carrying, splintering the trunk of a large tree in the
       area and knocking it into the building the Combine are holding.
       Multiple BSLs ring out as troopers and CPs alike are crushed by
       the massive foliage, SUNDOWN-813 pinned beneath a massive branch
       with multiple rib fractures, a lung punctured.
       OTA-i17.SUNDOWN.813 yells "<:: 11-99! I'm clamped! Help! ::>"
       Their pleas for help are drowned out as rebels and refugees
       alike start to climb the downed tree, seeking cover from the
       Airwatch forces above. SUNDOWN is confronted with a rebel
       holding a SPAS-12.
       OTA-i17.SUNDOWN.813 yells "<:: Son of a bitch! ::>" as they
       reach for their sidearm, having just enough time to unholster it
       as they're caught in the face with a direct blast, a BSL ringing
       out as their helmet is shattered and life ended by the buckshot.
