Day 1

Well, I'd better start from the beginning, a few days ago, I met Alex, someone like me, who, himself, has lost someone in his life, we've been staying together for a few days now, and we've been talking, and altogether, he's made me feel a lot better about... Aiko... well... I've never written a journal before... so... I'm not sure what else I could write... well... I'll just leave it at this just now, come back to it at a later day.

< I've been "in-active" for a week or so, but not intentionally, as I was getting my new computer set up as my laptop had died on me ( Just to clear things up if you thought I was inactive ) >

IC Character Name:
Sesmo Iridmo

1) Please write a minimum of 3 paragraphs OOC'ly detailing why your character wishes to join the Combine Civil Authority and what lead your character to do so.
During Sesmo's life, he believed that he never truly served a purpose in life, he thought he was meaningless, worthless, but after the combine took over Earth, Sesmo saw a light at the end of the dark tunnel, years of idleness could be relived, and Sesmo knew it. He was going to try and serve the Combine, in any way possible.
Less then a year after the Combine invaded, Sesmo had saw it as his duty to try and serve the Combine in a better way, but other people had not, Sesmo was an outcast in his pre-Universal life, and in his current life in City 45, he was pushed around, jeered at for being a "loyalist", but Sesmo looked down on them, one day, he would become a Civil Protection Unit.
Having a good, long look at the City was one of the things that stirred Sesmo into being a loyalist, he saw other citizens who were loyal to the Combine being bullied, as you may call it, by other citizens, he saw anti-civil activities being carried out, and Sesmo could do nothing to stop them. This is why Sesmo wants to be a Civil Protection Unit.
To make life better.
For everyone.

2) Please detail your characters traits. (Eg, Pure, Lawful, Trustworthy)
Sesmo is a lawful, forgiving person, who never breaks his promises.

3) Please provide 2 paragraphs about what you are expecting the Combine Civil Authority to be like for you and your character?
OOC'ly
I'm expecting being in the Combine Civil Authority to be quite hard, as there are many things such as radio codes (Terminology?), punishments (Verdicts?), contraband etc. I think it'll be quite fun, but I think some RP situations will be more enjoyable and immersive, but possibly even harder. One thing I'm hoping I'll never have to deal with are some dumb lolwebuls mingejumping about, but hopefully that will never happen, anyways, I think being a CCA Unit will be a lot more fun for me, and I'll (hopefully) get to take part in more roleplaying situations.

IC'ly
Sesmo saw it as a chance, like a dim light, in a pitch-black room, he had thought it out, knew it would be difficult, knew it might not happen, but it would be better. a lot better. It would be a tougher way of life in some ways, but a better way of life in other ways, he wouldn't have to deal with the people who nearly drove him to suicide, he may even try and help them, make them see the way the Combine really are, not killers, not murderers, but saviours of the world. Sesmo is willing to sacrifice all for the Combine, knowing that it will be hard, but he must serve his masters in anyway possible, finally accomplishing at least something in his life.
Possibly.


4) Please provide a detailed back-story from an out-of-character perspective on your applying character. This section must be detailed and consist of a minimum of 300 words.
Sesmo was born in the former Yugoslavia, or to be more specific, Kosovo. As a young child, Sesmo was
bullied and beaten by his father, a raging alcoholic, until he fled his home at the age of 13.
Around the age of 15, Sesmo was taken into an orphanage, meeting the first and possibly his best friend, Josip Patin. Life was fairly well for Sesmo for the next few years, he attented a local school in the weekdays and would mainly sit in his room and read books at weekends.
 A few years later, Sesmo was sitting in the main room in the orphanage, watching the breaking news on the television; Yugoslavia had broken into war. Later that month, an almost empty truck had driven to the village, taking young men to war, and killing any Croats in the village. Sesmo was terrified, not for himself, but for Josip, who was a Croat. When the men came to the orphanage, they started questioning people, inspecting young men to see if they could fight in the war, Sesmo was one of the many taken to the truck, sadly, his friend Josip was taken to another truck, this was the last time Sesmo would see him.
During the war, Sesmo yet again befriended some people, many of them boy soldiers such as himself. When the violence escalated, Sesmo could take no more of it, he had seen his friends blown apart, shot to death, killing themselves, all of this had torn Sesmo apart. One night, while in camp, Sesmo was awoken by explosions, and he had a horrible flashback, of his mother getting beat by his father, his friend Josip getting shot in the head, his father screaming at him as a child.
Sesmo had to get away from everything, or he would go insane.
And he knew it.
Sesmo crept out of the sleeping area, taking only a tin of army rations and a small knife, and ran as fast as he could into the forest, he had no idea of the time, didn't know where he was, until he stumbled out onto a road. The days past by slowly, as Sesmo ate scrapings of food from bins, the ground, begging for money, all of the time he trudged along the road, which soon turned into a highway after many, many miles.
Sesmo had been walking for days, weeks, trying to get away from his nightmares, and only when he came across a signpost, did he realise where he was.
"Czech-German border - 9 Kilometres"
Luckily, a passing truck picked up Sesmo, no idea where the driver was going, Sesmo soon fell into a sleep disturbed by horrible flashbacks.
At least a few days later, Sesmo woke up, got out the truck quickly and looked at this surroundings.
He had no idea where he was.
After hearing some people talking, he realised, after some thinking, he was in France.
Sesmo made a small living, running a garage, earning just enough money to go into a early retirement in his small cottage, where lived in privacy and isolation for many years.
Sesmo was sleeping in his bed, in his small house when he heard people screaming, he got up and looked out of his window, seeing people running down the streets, gunshots echoing across the village, Sesmo heard a loud noise of wood breaking, and he barely had enough time to turn around when everything started to fade away.The rumbling and shaking of the train woke Sesmo up, he sat up and looked around at the people in identical jumpsuits, rubbing his head, Sesmo couldn't remember a thing. The train slowly grinded to a halt, and Sesmo stood up like everyone else, and stepped onto the train platform where he was temporarily blinded by the light.
"Welcome to City Fourty-Five."

Edit - Nevermind, I'm such a hurrdurr. I started the video before I could see the name of it :I

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CF_YzPs1scQ" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CF_YzPs1scQ</a>

I was playing on HL2RP today, and the amount of FailRpers was just fucking annoying... firstly, there where these 4 tards standing infront of a guy with a shotgun, the guy with the shotgun gave warning shots, the failrpers stand still and say things like "can i join webelz" and "how do i get gun"...

Then later, I was playing as my anti-civil character, when I was going into the S6 Apartments, what happens? Some fucktard with a pistol accuses me of following him ( OOCLY ) and shoots the shit out of me without any RP what-so-ever...

A few weeks earlier, there was some guy claiming to be a weed dealer and saying things such as "yo i got crack n weed n shit com with me i have guns we can kill combinez" and I'm like *facepalm*

/rant ovar.
