Write a detailed in-canon back-story how your character obtained these authorizations.
A green light slowly pulsed in the darkness, illuminating the faces of strange and alien creatures for brief seconds at a time. A soothing and low tune was chanted in unison by the creatures, as they advanced through the darkness, towards the green light. One by one they disappeared into the light, the light emitting huge arcs of green as each creature descended into it.
The creatures, also known as Vortigaunts, were a species that dwelled in a dimension known as "Xen". The Vortigaunt we shall be focusing on is a young one, about fifty in Human years, yet still a young child in Vortigaunt years. This Vortigaunt, who was once formally known as Reygistis Oeiah, and personally and informally known as 'Buddy', by only himself and his closest friends. He was not the smartest Vortigaunt, even though his father-figure Seyos was a highly respected Vortigaunt, mainly due to his incredible sense in the Vortessence. He taught Reygistis as well as he could, but the Vortigaunt always had a clumsy and mindless attitude, nobody knows for sure if the teachings of Seyos really got through to him or not.
Reygistis let out a yell as he was pushed into the green orb by the unsuspected force of the huge crowd of other Vortigaunts, his recently gathered fungi flying out of his hands, splashing in the light blueish-green water puddle to his left. Then, everything turned black and green for a few seconds, before he felt a rushing sensation, almost as if he was weightless. This went on for a few seconds, before he felt a large thud on his head and his back.
"What the in th-..." exclaimed the driver of the car of which Reygistis just landed on.
Reygistis gulped, looking around, he was frozen with fear. Turning around in a slow three-hundred and sixty degree motion, Reygistis was finally able to examine his surroundings. Cars were spread all along the streets, people were leaning out of them, trying to see what was going on, and life had pretty much went to a standstill. Another Vortigaunt half-yelped, half-squeaked, running right across the street, jumping and clambering over the cars in its way, causing even more trouble. The Vortigaunt ran into an alleyway on the other side of the street, disappearing from sight. Reygistis followed it, moving for the first time in minutes. Another car smashed into him, presumably a wannabe vigilante, in the back of his legs. He collapsed to the ground, scurrying underneath the back of a truck. Eyes followed him everywhere, people were leaping out of their cars, cameras in hand, following Reygistis. He hissed back in a primitive manner, sitting underneath the truck for about ten minutes. After a while, the camera flashes and constant gawping got very irritating. He moved out from underneath the truck, and a choking sensation came over him, a wire tightened around his neck, while a heavily armoured man, or ten, poised guns at him, watching him with a close eye. One of them advanced, sticking something into his arm. It felt prickly at first, and tickled slightly. Reygistis looked around for a few minutes, before falling to his left, and everything went black.
"You fools, you could of killed... it!" shouted a voice, ringing in Reygistis's head.
"Stupid trigger-fingering jarheads!" it shouted again, in an angered tone.
Reygistis stirred, opening his eyes. There stood the armoured men, along with a group of more friendly looking people in labcoats. The scientists' mutual expression was that of annoyance. Obviously the soldiers had done something wrong, even Reygistis could tell that.
"Stupid, stupid men, we just ran a test, and whatever the hell you've done, you've damaged its brain, probably permanently!"
Reygistis tried to move his arms, but nothing would happen. He tried to move his legs, yet nothing would happen. He wasn't even tied down, yet he was hooked up to hundreds of beeping machines, with a tube going into each arm. Reygistis lay back as one of the scientists turned to him, looking over him. He closed his large eyes, pretending to sleep. Slowly he did drift to sleep.
It wasn't good news for Reygistis, nor the scientists. During his initial... 'landing' on Earth, the shock of the initial teleportation, and the force of the car, had sent his brain to a stop. He lost all memory of what had happened, who he was, his speaking became slurred, his movements clumsy. The only thing that still worked within him was the strong links to the Vortessence, and he had even forgot about them. He was like a chest filled with gold, except with a missing key, the gold is his immense power in the Vortessence, and the key is his functioning brain. As the years passed, Reygistis was kept locked up in the underground bunker, fed through a tube, sedated twenty-four-seven. He was, essentially, a vegetable. After a lengthy period of time, Reygistis got to see outside of the room.
"Easy now, there we go, get it on the cart..."
Reygistis was fascinated, even if the other rooms were just replicas of the lab he was originally in. He was loaded into an elevator, and when the doors opened at the top, he was scared by what he saw. There were truck-loads of armed guards - quite literally - positioned in a line towards a train, the sky was a boring grey, a gentle breeze blew around the yard. Then, once again, everything went black. A cotton bag was pulled over his head, and Reygistis, who was tied down, was loaded into the train. From the outside, it looked like a normal freight train, the almost-gone cryllic writing and rusting metal was quite a good cover-up. Inside, every three or so carriages was plated with white, foamy walls, with vertical 'beds' on the walls. Reygistis was tied into one of the beds at the bottom-most carriage, and unbeknownst to him, his kinfolk were mere metres away, two other unlucky Vortigaunts. The journey was tedious and boring, but after a while, the train just stopped. There were shots, explosions, and huge vibrations that shook the full train. Unbeknownst to the Vortigaunt occupants of the train, the Seven Hour war had began, unbeknownst to Reygistis he would be free, soon enough, and unbeknowst to the world, they would be captives of the Combine. Reygistis's cart flipped over as something crashed into it, denting the metal carriage walls inwards. It rolled, making Reygistis feel sick for a few minutes. It screeched across concrete, before landing upside down, knocking out its occupant.
A lone man picked through the rubble underneath a bridge, uncovering a train carriage. Originally, the man was looking for some loot, or weapons, food and clothing, in a more formal way. He yanked at the heavy door on the train, and the sight was, well, quite terrifying. A greenish-brown figure, with reddish-orange eyes was linked up to multiple machines, one, monitoring its heartbeat, and another, which appeared to have once fed it food or water. The machine probably went out a few days ago, judging by the size of it.
"Uh, hey there, buddy..." said the man, feeling quite awkward.
"Buddy..." replied the humanoid, half asleep.
"Hm, Buddy it is, then, c'mon, let's get you out of there, Buddy."
The man dropped into the carriage, heaving the large humanoid figure off of its 'bed', helping it stand up in the muddy canals.
"Buddy go with man..." said the humanoid figure, holding the hand of the male.
And so they went off, the mentally damaged Reygistis Oeiah, now known as "Buddy", and the black male, hand in hand, into the canals.
What will these authorizations give your character in regards to perks or defects?
Perks
Great ability in the Vortessence.
Fun RP, or at least I hope to create some.
Defects
Suffers from retrograde amnesia.
Clumsy movements and slurred speech due to mental problems.
Knows nothing at all about the Combine, his kin, Earth technology, and the likes, due to the first stated defect.
Has the aforementioned 'great ability' in the Vortessence, but his binds with it are rather weak, and he must learn.
What do you plan to do with these perks/defects?
Create some interesting and unique Vortigaunt RP, as I don't think many people have created a Vortigaunt with no knowledge at all about Earth, or problems with the Vortessence.
Will anyone else need these auths? (If so, list OOC and IC name(s))
Nope.
Which server does this apply for?
Outlands
Extra Notes (optional):
I have had a Vortigaunt before, by the name of "Rhial'Kar", but I created another authorisation for him to be turned into a slave, and he still is to this day, although I can't remember his exact digits.
EDIT - I had to indent the paragraphs more, I wrote this on an RTF at first and it looked pretty damn indented to me, turns out it wasn't, so I just moved the paragraphs in a bit.
