Citizen identification(CID): #10337

Last Assigned Apartment Number: Main UCH Complex, #A5

Age: 36


Why do you want to join the CWU?:
     For the benefit of the populace and the productivity of the Union. By becoming a Civil Worker, I am able to assist the citizens in City 45 for the greater good.

Have you ever been detained before?:
     No, I have a very clean record and no charges of crime whatsoever.

Past experience with work/labor:
     I used be a doctor pre-war in a large hospital. I was an Emergency Medical Technician (or paramedic) and my job mostly revolved around quick treatment of injuries or wounds. I worked for about seven years as my profession after I received my bachelor's degree. Usual schedule was preparing to board the ambulance in the hospital's garage in case of an emergency.

What will you do for us?:
     I am very interested in becoming a medic or a doctor for the general population. With my prior skills, I can assist in medical procedures that may be vital to the Union's central workforce.

How long have you been in City45?:
     I have been in City 45 for a few months considering the Union has saved our planet only a year ago. I have transferred from multiple cities in an effort to find work here.

Can CWU members be in possession of Alcohol?:
     For medical reasons, such as the sterilization of wounds, alcohol may be used. But consumeable beverages that contain alcohol are strictly enforced and labelled as contraband by the Union's standards.

Can CWU members be in possession of Knifes?:
     In the event of a medical procedure or surgery, knives (or scalpels) may be used to open the skin and other tissue. Knives that are long enough to puncture flesh and harm vital or nonvital organs are restricted.

If a citizen runs up to you and starts swearing what do you do?:
     In this case, I would have to make sure their is no possible future violence and make sure their are no physical hostilities. I would take into consideration the citizen's identity and the words that he has used that are against Union regulations. Once he has left or I decide to leave, I would remmember his exact location as I report the situation in to a Civil Protector or by using my request device. When the criminal is approached by the unit, I would enter the situation to assist describing the criminal's verdicts and exact words. Then the citizen, when escorted by the unit to the nexus for detainment leaves, I would continue again like nothing happened.

Any disabilities?:
     No mental deformities or physical deformities.

Have you ever been in a CWU Related Activity?:
     No, I have never been in a CWU related activity.

Who are the Organizers of the CWU?:

Roleplay Experience:
     I have been a CWU on Relentless Roleplay and OurBenefactors. On the same servers, I have been a DvL in Union, a Vortigaunt for the resistance, and a City Administrator for about a month.

Why do you want to be accepted into the CWU?:
     I feel that I may be able to assist in the development of other characters through loyalist and other CWU events. Inside the CWU, I could take my medical skills to the test against citizens and hopefully heal them. Besides already being a CCA currently, I can put in some of my time to be active during a high CP count (Which is Often) and boost the morale of other workers.

Character Backstory(Must be one paragraph):

Name: Boris Gorbachev
Citizen identification(CID): 12724
Last Assigned Apartment Number: UCH Apartment B1
Age: 48

Why do you want to join the CWU?:

As a Loyalist, I am eager to do my part in assisting the Universal Union. I believe the CWU is the perfect way to do so. The frequent announcements has always famed the CWU. I would love to help the work of the CWU. I believe the future of Humanity depends on the accumulation of the smallest tasks performed by many individuals.
As a store owner, I see the hard work the CWU workers do when they bring me my shipments. They seem motivated, inspired. They seem eager to do their job right. I used to live in Russia in the days of the Soviet Union. They always told us how important it is to do our part for the community by doing our jobs. I believe the Universal Union may share the same view. Therefore I want to do my part for the Universal Union. I want to do it for the future of Humanity!

Have you ever been detained before?:

Never, not even before the Universal Union. I would never do anything to get myself detained.

Past experience with work/labor:

I own a restaurant called 'Cafe Baltic'. It's pretty tough to run it. Also, before the Universal Union, I did community work part time and I owned a bar. Living in the Soviet Union, they taught us a lot about Communism. Communism greatly supports work and labor.

What will you do for us?:

I wish to carry out the tasks that I must do as a CWU worker. As of now, I am not too sure what the specific tasks are. But from what I have seen so far, it probably consists of medical attention for the citizens and the providing of supply shipments for businesses. Whatever I must do will be fine, as long as it is helping the Universal Union.

How long have you been in City45?:

I have lived in the wonderful City 45 ever since I was transferred here after the invasion. Therefore, that would make it about a year now. I absolutely love this city! I have the feeling that the Universal Union has a part in my favoritism of City 45.

Can CWU members be in possession of Alcohol?:

The CWU members can absolutely not be in possession of alcohol. Alcohol is contraband. It is contraband for a reason. It causes too much trouble for Humanity. As a former alcoholic, I have seen these troubles myself!

Can CWU members be in possession of Knifes?:

The CWU members can absolutely not be in possession of knifes. They are not any different than alcohol. They cause trouble as they are used as weapons, items used to hurt people. They have often been associated with muggings and murder. Therefore it is contraband as well, and should not be in the possesion of a CWU member or any citizen for that matter.

If a citizen runs up to you and starts swearing what do you do?:

I would remind him or her that it is against the laws of the Universal Union, and that he or she should stop. If he or she continues, I will take out my request device and report the troublemaker to Civil Protection for Audio Violation.

Any disabilities?:

I do not have any disabilities.

Have you ever been in a CWU Related Activity?:

If ordering supply shipments counts as a CWU related activity, then I believe so. Otherwise, no I have not.

Who are the Organizers of the CWU?:

I believe it is Ted Simmons and James Tavener who are the Organizers of the CWU, but I am not 100% sure. They help assign activities and task for the CWU.

Roleplay Experience:

I have had roleplaying experience for several months in another community before I came to Catalyst Gaming. I have also been playing Catalyst Gaming: Half-Life 2 Roleplay for about a month now and have experience as a citizen, and a CCA member.

Why do you want to be accepted into the CWU?:

I want to be accepted into the CWU to have experience there as well. I want my character to be a part of the CWU to have the added benefits of it. He is also a Loyalist, so it would be good for the character. I also think that it may help to roleplay better. Another reason I want to join is to contribute to its activity, as most CWU members have been notorious for being inactive.

Character Backstory(Must be one paragraph):

Born and raised in Moscow, Russia, Boris Gorbachev was a child growing up during the Cold War era of the Soviet Union. His father, Kiril Gorbachev, was a Communist politician. As such, he raised his son to be a Communist. Communism is the idea of sharing and equality for all. No one could be any more important than another, being rich meant having to share most of your salary with those less fortunate, and social classes were almost non-existent. Boris supported Communism greatly. He believed absolute equality is the key to greatness.
Boris's mother died giving birth to him. Kiril raised Boris by himself. Usually the father-son families can be very tough. Boris was a little rebellious when he was a teenager. He was angry with his father concerning himself more to the political press conferences and such things and spending less time with him. Boris eventually moved out on his own as soon as he reached the age of 18, in 1986. That was the last Boris had seen of his father.
By the time Boris was 22, he had a job as a bar tender. The name of his bar was "(http://i703.photobucket.com/albums/ww36/429ghost/BorissBar.png)"[translated to: Boris's Bar]. He had an apartment in the city. Boris also had a relationship with a woman from Ukraine named "Elena Kropenko". However, it was brief and was the only intimate relationship he ever had.
Being a bar tender eventually led Boris to getting drunk at nights on his own booze. This is how he became an alcoholic, stereotypically preferring vodka. Boris tried to get help and rehabilitation, but none of it worked. He would eventually find his way back to drinking.
In 1991, the Soviet Union collapsed. The collapse of the Soviet Union also triggered the fall of Communism. Boris was furious about this. He quickly became a strong supporter of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation. It was all that was left of communism in the former Soviet Russia.
In 2015, the Seven Hour War began. Boris was in his apartment when he heard air raid sirens wail all across town. He heard russian troops outside saying russian in megaphones "Attention. An evacuation is in effect. Please report outside where you will be taken to a Protection Center and given further information". Boris, along with his neighbors, went outside to the russian troops. Confused and scared, they followed the orders of the troops. They were all loaded onto Ural-4320s and taken to a Protection Center. Boris asked the troop that was there what was going on. The soldier replied to him in russian "You will all be given further information at the destination". Boris looked up and could see several Mil Mi-17s heading west. Above them was a squadron of several Su-35s heading the same direction. Boris knew that something bad was going on.
The convoy finally arrived at the Protection Center. They were all unloaded and sent inside as the trucks left to gather more evacuees. At the Protection Center, one of the troops spoke into a megaphone. "Attention. You are all here to be protected from an invading force heading to Moscow. We have recieved word that the United States has been invaded by unknown hostile forces three and a half hours ago. These hostiles have already taken much of the United States and have already pushed across the Atlantic and through European territory. The hostile forces have already made an advance to the western border. Fear not, for our brave military has been sent in to fight back these hostiles. In the meantime, you are to remain here." he said in russian.
Boris took out his phone and opened the radio application on it. He sat down and flipped through different frequencies until he could find the main frequency used by the Russian Armed Forces. From there, he evesdropped on everything that happened. The radio operators spoke in russian. "Tsar, this is Drajon 1. Battalion en route to defence line, over." "Copy, Drajon 1. Advise on all occurences from here on, over." "Affirmative, Drajon 1 out." "Tsar, this is First Air Fleet 1. Confirm on offensive on hostiles 200 miles west of defence line, over." "Confirmed, First Air fleet 1. Proceed 200 miles west to predicted hostile location, over." "Affirmative, Tsar. First Air fleet 1, out." "Attention all ground and air battalions, this is High Command. We have confirmed all lost communication with invaded countries. Sattellite Reconnaissance confirms. Hostile forces are large and considered very strong. We must strike the hostiles before they reach the defence line. All remaining battalions who have not been assigned a position are to go along side First Air Fleet 200 miles west of defence line and further if neccessary. We must also place priority of defending the entire Eastern Bloc if possible. Our forces will rendezvous with armed forces from Ukraine. All forces are now to carry out their orders. High Command out." "Kraken copys all." "Miko copys all." "Hammer copys all"(the rest of the battalions said the same.)
Some time later, radio chatter increased as the offensive was made. "Tsar, Kraken here. Armed forces have rendezvoused with Ukrainian forces and are now proceeding to hostile engagement, over." "Copy, Kraken. Do not show mercy, over." "Affirmative, Tsar. Kraken out." Then thats when the battle of the offensive started. They did not stand a chance. "Kraken, this is Tsar. Sitrep, now, over." "*cough* *cough* The *pant* the hostiles have managed to defeat our battalion, I do not know of the others, but our numbers have reduced greatly. I fear that we- OH NO! HERE COMES ANOTHER ONE OF THOSE HUN-*flechette fire heard*" "Kraken, come in Kraken, do you copy? Kraken! *sigh* Miko, come in Miko, do you copy? Miko? Anyone, do you copy?" "*radio static*" "First Air Fleet, this is Tsar. We've lost contact with our ground forces. Do you copy? over." "First Air Fleet 1, copys all, over." "First Air Fleet 1, give me a sitrep. over." "It is not looking good, the skies are filled with hostile air forces. We are having a hard time-*explosion heard*" "First Air Fleet 1, come in First Air Fleet 1, do you copy? over" "*more radio static*" "Drajon, this is Tsar. We've lost contact with forces in the offensive. Do you copy? over." "Drajon copys all, over." "Drajon, be ready for intense hostile engagement, over." "Affirmative, Tsar. Preparing for attacks, over." "Copy, Tsar out." Drajon didnt stand a chance either. "Tsar, hostiles have pushed our forces back. Some have already proceeded into the country, we are having a lot of trouble fighting them ba-*strider cannon heard*" "Drajon? Come in damnit! High Command, defence line has been breached! Advise."
Not too long later, an entire massive fleet of gunships and dropships was above Moscow. They began firing at anything in sight. Boris took cover where he could. The battle lasted for an hour, and then the hostiles seized fire.
The Russian defence in the west border and the offensive was futile as the hostiles, or otherwise known as the Combine, had defeated them in a matter of two hours. The Combine finally arrived at Moscow where the battle continued. Boris knew the military stood no chance. Russia, along with all the nations of the Earth, surrendered shortly after.
Boris was then transferred to City 45. Boris is enthusiastic about life under Combine rule. The way everyone is at the same level and civilization is valued highly, it reminds him of the old Communist ways of the Soviet Union. Because alcohol has been out-lawed, Boris has been able to overcome his alcoholism. Because of all the good the Universal Union has done so far for him, Boris is a Loyalist.

Citizen identification(CID): 62789
Last Assigned Apartment Number: UCH Apartment A3
Age: 51

Why do you want to join the CWU?: I wish to join the CWU for many reasons. I believe I can do a lot for the CWU and it can do a lot for me. It will teach me more about the city and people. I think I will make a lot of new friends. The CWU is a way for me to reach out to the people and help them more than I already am. I am not very busy anymore. I usually spend my time walking around the streets making sure to pick up any trash and help people as best as I can. I have reported many people for countless violations. I do not like violence at all and I am highly agaisnt anything dangerous. Growing up in the middle of Europe, I learned several languages, I can also use this to help people who are unfluent with english. I want to work not for the award of wealth, but for a healthy city. I want to set a good example for people, so we can have a better future that we share with the Union. The CWU is something I have wanted to do for a long time. On my second day in the city, I was somehow lost. It makes me laugh now, as I know my way everywhere it seems. However, a CWU member showed me around and helped me find a place to rest. This was my most memorable experience in the city. It inspired me to want to become a part of the Civil Workers Union. These are small things I have done, I wish to take the next step and go bigger. I wish to join the Civil Workers Union.

Have you ever been detained before?: I have never been detained, or done anything that would get me detained... this includes before and after the war. I was a busy man, trying to make money for my old mother. I had no time for crime or anything like that back then, or now.

Past experience with work/labor: Before the war, I worked at a small pastry bakery in Italy. I was one of the chefs at the bakery. Many times (Since the bakery was very small), I would also serve and take orders from customers. This gave me a lot of experience with dealing with people and serving them. When I was a teenager I worked for a small fishing company which has taught me a lot about patience.
What will you do for us?: I have much to offer for the CWU, people, and city. I will put all my work, effort, and time into the CWU. It is something I have been wanting to do for a while now. I wish to help other CWU members. I would help and sell the CWU goods to the people of the city with my former experience of selling. I will also help the citizens become more fond of the Civil Workers Union. I will offer help to everyone as I always have. I will do jobs for the CWU like making positive propaganda to help the CWU and the city. The CWU has helped and inspired me a lot. It is time that I do something for it, the Union, the city, and its in-habitants.

How long have you been in City45?: I have been in City 45 for roughly three months now. It has proved to be my favorite city so far, and I am told that I am staying for a while. I have been living in an apartment in the UCH.

Can CWU members be in possession of Alcohol?: No, they can't have alcohol in their possession, reach, or whatsoever. It is contraband and I will and always have reported it. Back before the Union came, alcohol was one of the biggest problems. Most violence and deaths were because of it. I have however heard of many doctors using alcohol to sterilize a wound, but it should not be used or held either way, unless a CWU member has permission and medical experience to use it.

Can CWU members be in possession of Knifes?: No they can't. This is a very strict rule, and I understand it very much. I am agaisnt violence and I personally and strongly agree to this rule. No citizen or CWU can have any sort of weapon. If I were to see anything like this, I would no doubt report it. It is a big offense as it can cause violence and even killing to occur. Under some circumstances some CWU can use tools like these (Which are not really knives) to preform medical procedures if needed.

If a citizen runs up to you and starts swearing what do you do?: If a citizen walks up to me and starts to swear I would listen, at the same time they could be blabbering illegal information which would be useful for the CCA to hear. After this, I would ask the citizen why they are swearing. Now probably feeling more comfortable with me, I would ask them for their name and/or CID. I would then explain that it is uncivil to curse. I would also explain that is it punishable and against the rules. I would not tell them that I would report them so I could evade any possible violence. After they walk away, I would watch to see where they go and then take out my request device. Now, I would explain what happened and the violator's location or where they were heading. If the CCA member who responds asks me to come, I would now have plenty of information to tell him about the person.

Any disabilities?: (May not really count as a disability) Sometimes when I concentrate, I will begin to breath heavily. However, I almost always notice it and I stop immediately. Also, I have a very minor limp which seems to slowly be getting better, and it is barely noticable as it was caused by an accident years back. The limp doesn't slow me or my work down, and I am just as good without the limp. Other than that, I have no other medical disabilities, issues, or problems.

Have you ever been in a CWU Related Activity?: Yes, many times. I buy food from the Civil Worker's Union on a regular basis. I was once also in a situation in which a CWU worker was helping me, it was the most memorable time I have had in the city. I have also been near or in several situations which a CWU was helping a another person and I was involved (In a good way).

Who are the Organizers of the CWU?: The current Organizers of the CWU are Ted Simmons and James Tavener, I learned both ICly via an RP. The Organizers keep it maintained and assign tasks, work, and activities for the CWU members.

Roleplay Experience: I have been roleplaying since 2005. Roleplay is what really got me into gaming. I first started with singleplayer roleplay games. My first was Morrowind, which I did not play to just be the best character I could get. I actually roleplayed by my self doing quests. I then played the other games in the Elder Scrolls series which I still play today. It has become my favorite series. Very soon, I wished to experience roleplaying with other characters. I played World of Warcraft for a while. This did not really help me much with roleplaying, but it did introduce me to WoW private servers. I played on very serious WoW RPs. I still did not think it was much, because well... World of Warcraft is not really meant for that. I played much more games like this for a while. That is untill Half Life came out, I got steam in 2007 which I played Half Life on. I played it and all the expansions, so when Half Life 2 came out I was already on it. Soon, after playing the full Half Life series I started watching videos of Garrysmod. I bought the game. I played singleplayer and soon started Multiplayer. I played some of the first RP gamemodes. I soon joined a very popular community, DTH. Their main RP server was Epic RP. It was a HEAVILY enhanced darkRP. You really could not tell it was darkRP as its base. I started playing it from the beginning of the community and soon I was a superadmin. I became an exellent roleplayer and I helped a lot of people do so. But after a few years the gamemode broke and the community shut down. I had played many different RPs and Half Life 2 RP was very suprising to me. I have been playing Open Aura since it came out. One of my good friends had a Fallout 3 serious RP that ran on Open Aura. I became very fluent with the commands and RPing with it. So apon my arrival to Catalyst I knew exactly what I was playing at the beginning. I am also very fluent with the Half Life 2 canon, because I was interested in it, and I did lots of research on the wiki.

Why do you want to be accepted into the CWU?: I want to be accepted into the CWU, because it is an new way to Roleplay. To be honest, I enjoy passive roleplay MUCH more than any other type. I know for a fact, as I have seen it, that the CWU will definitly hold this type of roleplay and much more to me. I do not just want to join the CWU to become more popular, or to use the privalages for my own good. I want to join because I think I am ready to take this new step, and I wan't to have fun with others. I want to help the CWU expand. I think most of the roleplay in the CWU will be relaxing, but I know that sometimes it will be faster roleplay. I always take my time to roleplay and relax. If I get accepted into the CWU, I will continue roleplaying as the same character. Just because someone is in the CWU doesn't mean that their character is comepletely different. Just maybe the roleplay is a change. I was actually going to apply for the Civil Workers Union before I applied for the CCA. There was no recruitment at the time so I waited. I soon applied for the CCA and got accepted. I still did not forget about the CWU and how much I had been wanting to participate in it. Everytime I came on the forums I checked to see if the applications were up. The day they were, I began to type.

Character Backstory(Must be one paragraph):
   Yagrum Bagarn was born in 1965 in Genoa, Italy. Both of his parents were American born. So in his early years, he was learning two languages at once, American and Italian. He lived in a very small apartment in a crowded and building stacked area. The town was old and it still had all of the old buildings. A little ways down the street, well you could call it an alley, was Gogrell's Bakery. It was a very small bakery right on the waterfront. One of Yagrum's favorite activities was to go down to the bakery. He became buddies with the owner, Gogrell. At the age of 5, Yagrum's parents were extremely poor. They could not afford to take care of Yagrum anymore. One night, they disappeared leaving Yagrum sleeping in his bed in the apartment all alone. For a full 3 days Yagrum stayed in the apartment worried and crying. His parents had left everything so he could still eat and drink. After 3 days, he went to the only person he was friends with, Gogrell the baker. There he stayed with him as his parents never did come back. Gogrell's bakery included the downstairs, which was the bakery and an upstairs which is where he lived. Gogrell had a spare room which he let Yagrum stay. By age 8, Gogrell introduced Yagrum to the buisness and he started helping. Gogrell taught Yagrum much, including his two favorite activites, fishing and cooking. This was a great coincidence because the waterfront bakery offered Yagrum fishing and at the same time he could cook the fish in the bakery.
   
   By age 14, Yagrum and Gogrell had a father and son relationship. Yagrum had learned much from the baker, but needed money if he were to go to a school. So he began to work for his "Father" in the bakery. He continued fishing and very soon he had two jobs. When he was available he would work for the bakery, and all the other days he would fish for a small company on the waterfront. With all of this he attended a small school which taught all grades for all kids in the area. There was not many kids however and many of the ones who did live in the area did not attend school. Many of these were troublemakers which Yagrum had no time to get involved with. Soon Yagrum was a fine fisher and cook. He was 17 now and heading off to college. It was now 1980. He decided to major in buisness and medicine. In high school he was interested in medicine as there wasn't much doctors near him. They taught little about it, but it still made him wonder. He enjoyed college a lot. It reminded him of growing up and learning all the things Gogrell taught him. His degree in medicine kept him in college for a while, which was fine with him as he loved it. He was not in the best college, but he was okay in money as he saved up from all the years of working.
   
   Once he was out of college he went back to Gogrell and continued doing what he did before college. He wanted to help repay for Gogrell who had helped him all the years. He stayed like this for a while, as he did not have a lot of money from college. He slowly gained it back. He would remain doing this untill he had enough to get his own house and maybe open a shop with his knowledge of medicine and buisness. After a few years this was no longer on his mind. Gogrell was becoming very sick, with his knowlege Yagrum helped Gogrell. He helped him untill a year later when Gogrell got cancer. Yagrum knew there was no way to fight it as it was brain cancer. Gogrell died and wanted Yagrum to keep the Bakery open. He did this for many years as he wanted to keep Gogrells word. He made lots of money. Later, the Black Mesa incident happened. Very soon, portal storms began to occur everywhere. He was just as amazed as anyone else.

   When the Combine invaded, Yagrum's small town surrendered without a fight. Yagrum hated violence and this was good for him. The town was so poor it didn't even have anything to fight with. He was shipped from city to city. It was okay for him, because he stayed in Europe. From the many people he met, he learned a more of different languages. He loved to hear peoples stories. He became very fond of the Union. Growing up in a small and trouble infested area, Yagrum became suprised when seeing the cities. They were very clean, organized, and there was near to no violence. He thought the Union wasn't so bad after all. When arriving to City 45 three months ago, Yagrum was told he would be staying for a long time. He knew he wanted to use his skills to work again. He did not want to join the CCA as he knew he would have to deal with violence. The Civil Workers Union soon became familiar to him, and he knew he wanted to join it. He had also been helped and inspired by many of them. He went to sign up for the Civil Workers Union. He knew he was ready for a new step.

Why do you want to join the CWU?: There are a number of reasons as to why I'd like to join the Civil Workers Union. Ever since my arrival at this city, I've seen the definite potential it harbors to be the most beautiful city out there, but I'm constantly confronted with the garbage and litter of lazy citizens who feel that it should be responsibility of others, or even the metropolice. This absolutely disgusts me, and I would leap at the opportunity to clean this up and do my part for not only the city, but for the greater Universal Union.

I believe taking on this job would not only be an amazingly great chance to develop character in myself, learn a bit more about the union and do my bit in furthering the advancement of a civilized community.

Have you ever been detained before?: I have been on a tour through the prison, and even had a simulated cycle in there to get a feel for as it was as a prisoner, but that is it.

Past experience with work/labor: In my previous, miserable life before the UU came and enlightened me, I jumped around from job to job, mainly in the rural Spanish town Grenada. There, I worked on a farm for two years, just generally lending a hand out whereever desired, but in the later few years I liked to work as both a tour guide and marker crier.

What will you do for us?: I will devote my soul and body into making C45 a more attractive and comfortable place for our superiors to stay in, and to allow citizens to rest at night knowing they're safe from disease. Maybe one day I could even help with the ration terminals.

How long have you been in City45?: Two months and thirteen days.

Can CWU members be in possession of Alcohol?: Alcohol is contraband and extremely illegal to own, possess and especially to traffic. If any contact was made, or knowledge gained, of such a substance I would be sure to report it to my local civil protection team.

Can CWU members be in possession of Knifes?: Knives are highly illegal to own for an unauthorized citizen. Although any potential terrorist attacks by any deranged individual would be thwarted immediately by the CCA, I will do my absolute best to report every and all case of contraband, especially such malicious weapons as this.

If a citizen runs up to you and starts swearing what do you do?: I would not lose my cool. I would simply retain my proud, civilised posture and report him straight to the nearest civil protection unit, as they know what to do with the citizen better than I.

Any disabilities?: I am not disabled in any way, shape or form.

Have you ever been in a CWU Related Activity?: I have most definitely helped civil protection officers in numerous ways, and lent my hands at public labor events such as refurbishing and house painting. Every time I spot a bit of litter on the ground, I'll grab that up and throw it right in the bin, where it belongs.

Who are the Organizers of the CWU?:Reception has informed me that the managers of the Civil Workers Union are Ted Simmons and James Tavener.

Last Assigned Apartment Number: Apartment B-1
Age: 22

Why do you want to join the CWU?: To feel like I’m doing a greater for good for someone other then myself, and hopefully make this new city, city 45, a better place.

Have you ever been detained before?: No

Past experience with work/labor: A few times I would take a broom or a mop and start cleaning up the streets.

What will you do for us?: Hopefully make city 45 by cleaning the streets, or administering medical aid to people who need it.

How long have you been in City45?: About a week and a half, I was just transferred from city 14.

Can CWU members be in possession of Alcohol?: I would assume they can be in possession of alcohol that can be used for medical purposes, but they can’t have the drinkable alcohol.
 
Can CWU members be in possession of Knifes?: I would guess that they could be in possession of a scalpel for medical purposes, but not knifes that could causes bodily harm to someone.

If a citizen runs up to you and starts swearing what do you do?: I would listen closely to what the citizen is saying briefly, and then find a Civil Authority Officer and explain the exact words he said to me. If none are visible, I would use a request device to contact one and explain exactly what the citizen said when he or she arrives.

Roleplay Experience: I hadn’t roleplayed much before CG, occasionally hopping on a darkrp server (Eeew, I know) to dick around and such. I’d say with CG, I’ve had about 8 months of roleplay experience (6 months if its just serious)
Why do you want to be accepted into the CWU?: I want to join the CWU for rp purposes, like everyone probably does, and to give my character more back story and depth. as well as being able to rp having a store, or treating a citizens wounds, and rping with other CWU members.

Character Backstory(Must be one paragraph): When Michael Autumn was sent on to the long train ride to City 45, all was quiet... at first. If you were to ask, he would say about a quarter through the trip, people started getting quite angry at each other, and they would vent all of their frustration on Michael Autumn. Whether being yelled at or just simply beaten by his fellow “citizens” Michael Autumn soon learned to only speak when spoken to, and he kept his head down, to nervous to make eye contact with any of the angry occupants of the train. Slowly, the occupants of the train left one by one, each time a destination was reached, more people would get off, glad to be off the train.

Michael Autumn’s stop, city 45, was the last stop for the train, so he was bullied until no one remained, and he was the last on the train. When the train arrived, Michael Autumn stepped off nervously, expecting some form of abuse to strike at any moment. Michael Autumn went to get his things that he needed for city 45, his new uniform and his suitcase, looking down at the ground, still too afraid to make any eye contact with anyone. Upon leaving the train station with his things, he looked out at the plaza of City 45, and walked down the stairs, he would never forget his time on the train, and because of that, he was now too nervous to speak to a soul for more then a few minutes...

Character Backstory(Must be one paragraph):
Kaden, a simple labourer by trade, worked hard during the days leading up to the incident as a carpenter and helped build with his family. But then it changed. Kaden can't remember much about the portal storms, or the war. He can only remember the fear and the pain. The screams of his friends, family, everyone shaking in fear in their cellar.
The British army was scrambled and on high alert, every ship, plane, and infantryman were patrolling the streets. It was a nightmare. But what no one realised was that what was about to happen would be worse.
Explosions, flashes of light, orange, blue, green, red, purple. None of it made sense, but no matter where you looked. Everyone was dying. The combine had begun their invasion, a fleet of what appeared to be gunships hovered eerily over London. The funny thing is they didn't even shoot. They didn't need to.
Buildings fell and exploded, debris flying everywhere, kaden, hiding with his family in the basement. Something burst through the door, it was too dark, no one knew what it was. "Everyone down here Move!" A commanding voice echoed through the basement. It was a military figure, what rank was unknown, but I don't think that mattered.
The british army ordered a complete retreat to the west coast of the UK only minutes after the fire fights began and everyone was rushed out. Or at least if they could get out that is. Kaden looked out of the back of his convoy seeing the towers in the distance, an orange glow.
it was 4.23 AM according to the clock in Penzance. Dark, tired, and lonely. Kaden was separated from his family in the hundreds in front of him, behind him, and in any direction he looked. They were being herded onto large what seemed to be cargo ships. One already sailing in the distance.
Kaden found himself upon the "SEASHELL". An odd name at that, but still, if it was safety then fine. No one knew what was happening until they got aboard.
The intercom buzzed on around the overcrowded ship. The captain alerted them that they were sailing to the US. A full retreat of the UK as it was lost. The war was over for now.
5.12 AM, the ship was out of the harbour and about 50 miles out to sea. In the horizon Penzance was but a smouldering plane. Already? How did it come to this in less than four hours?
The ship sailed for days, yet no one said a thing. No one spoke a word. The hundreds of innocent civilians just sat and looked at eachother for hope. There was none.
A day had passed, Many strange metallic ships flew overhead, all seemingly passive to the ship. Did they think the occupants were dead? No one really knew.
The US was now in sight. And the first ship docked.. But this wasn't the US that anyone knew, a huge metallic tower stretched high into the sky, with what can only be described as attack helicopters in the sky. They weren't human.
As the ship docked the helicopters, about four or five, just circled it. Weapons terrifyingly primed.
One person at a time, the ship was evacuated and sorted by a force.. A race of people that have never been seen before.. Who were they? What did they want with us?
Kaden was within the second hundred taken off the ship, and as he approached the group of new armed aliens to the world, he was thoroughly searched, handed a Card, and send down a row of other civilians, Row "?". Kaden looked at his card. "#20823" was printed on it along with a small holographic logo.
His row was then moved onto a train, everyone fell silent as the train left a makeshift, metallic platform onto a rail line.
He looked out of the window, at the devastation. Burning embers and rubble of buildings were all that were left. And silently, even now, Kaden knew he had to make this world a better place again, he had to re-assemble what is a broken humanity. He knew he couldn't, but wherever he is going, if he lives. He's going to do good.
Kaden stepped out of the train into a large city plaza, Someone on a digital screen proclaimed "Welcome! to City 45! It's safer here."
It's safer here...

Character Backstory(Must be one paragraph):

Elizabeth Clover had grown up in New York her entire life. She always seemed to be shoved around - her parents forcing her to learn the piano - constantly being bullied at school. Luckily she soon graduated from her high school, slowly collecting money for her one dream - Travel around Europe. She eventually did get the money, and went on a vacation around Europe. She had a lot of fun, but near the end of her trip, something terrifying happened. Portal storms, Elizabeth quickly fled like everyone else did - to a city, where they could recieve protection. But eventually, the seven hour war had struck. The Combine attacking there city like all others. And Elizabeth - trapped in a forign country - was overlooked as another European citizen, being captive in a place known as City 9.

Elizabeth stayed in City 9,  where she began learning a language used away from the ears of units - German. She eventually liked it in City 9, minus the horrible units and starvation, that is. But as soon as she liked it was as soon forced onto another cramped little train. She was forced to ride the train for nearly 18 hours. She awaked into a new city, the city known as City 45. In City45, she started constantly watching the BreenCast - mostly becuase of her boredom.  this lead to her beliving, "Maybe this is a good thing that happened to us. That the combine took humanity captive." And started to feel an emotion, an emotion to begin helping the combine. But she never thought of the C.W.U. until one day when she met one. She simply asked for a new request device - the one she recieved before was old and breaking apart. And after a little talking with the worker afterword, Elizabeth made her mide up. She was going to apply as a Civil Worker, for the combine. (And for the benefits of it.)

I think citizens would come talk to be about their probelms because I am not in a suit. Also I would like to be a small shop owner and help bring up the number of loyalists.

Character Backstory (Must be one paragraph): Ryan Peters was born in 1974 in New York. He was a normal boy trying to grow up in a city full of scum and crime. His father was a part of the NYPD making ends meet, his father was investigating a homicide in the lower Manhattan projects when he was struck by a car that was fleeing from the scene of the crime. Upon Ryan finding out he was torn apart and at the time he was around the age of 17 and decided it would be best for him to get a job. The only jobs available where in the construction field that he could get with having a good pay. He took a job up in Brooklyn that had a good pay and reasonable benefits. About 10 years later he was out of the house and still in the construction business, now owning his own company using the skills he got from his later jobs. 8 years later he was at a site with his crew of 10, they were building homes for the needy in a development near the Hudson River. There were a couple tremors that morning followed by rumbling but nothing that would be noticed if busy. Later on in his day he noticed a strange gleaming light in the sky and also heard it on the news and how it was showing up everywhere around the world. About 1 hour later the gleaming lights started getting brighter and started to lower closer to the earth, he could head loud noises and wondered what the hell was going on, the lights where flickering and eventually went out. That was the time the Portal Storms arrived, Ryan ran with everyone else including his crew to a local city where police where helping others get to safety. Sometime later the 7 hour war began and the Combine arrived taking citizens to locations, they were not told where they were being taken to. Ryan arrived in a city the Combines called "City 18" The units there where mean and the food was horrible, Ryan did not like the atmosphere at all. About 5 months into his time there he was put on a list to be transferred to another city that some people where calling "City 45" Upon his long arrival by train he was forced into an apartment and forced to watch the city administrator give a speech. After staying in the city for a short period of time he liked the atmosphere that it possessed and started getting situated in. Ryan made a couple friends and also having the thoughts of helping the Combine better themselves. Ryan began cleaning the streets by picking up trash and cans that he saw and through them away in the designated zone. Ryan got to the point where he had over 19 Loyalist points. Ryan made up his mind that he was going to apply for the Civil Workers Union and help the Combine by doing what they need and what the Organizers need.

Roleplay Experience: I have been roleplaying for about a year and a half.
Why do you want to be accepted into the CWU?: I wish to be accepted into the CWU because I usually don't see many CWU members on, and people are sometimes complaining that, because noone is on, it takes away an aspect that they could sue to roleplay with, and I wish to bring that aspect back. Also, I think it would be a fresh new set to roleplay in.
Character Backstory(Must be one paragraph): Ben Rose was never the most physically inclined kid, and he was constantly bullied for it because the school was very physically inclined. Even through all of that, he pulled through and managed to get a good education, working part time jobs everywhere to get enough money for a good car. Even though he had a bad past at school he loved to help people and tried his best at it. When he was fifteen he was told by his father to 'Shape up or ship out!' which was his way of saying "Get focused on what you want to do in life.'  So he began thinking about what he wanted to do, when one day his mother suggested he become a doctor. He loved the idea! So he took the money he was saving for a car and put it into a bank account to earn interest.  He worked all the time to pay for his education all the while he was made fun of at high school for not having a car. He smiled at the thought of being the only one to afford college by himself. When he finished high school, he was excited that he could finally begin being a doctor! But first, he still had one thing he had to do, he had to go to college to learn the more advanced medical procedures. He took out all the money he had earned over the years and counted it, getting more and more excited with every dollar counted.  When he was done with the counting, to his despair, he  found out that he was ten thousand dollars short. Seeing as how much he had looked forward to going to college, Tyler Rose lent his brother the ten thousand dollars, money he had been saving up for his own college education. Ben quickly promised to pay him back. He moved out of his small Ontarian home and moved west, hoping his application to the University of British Columbia was accepted. A week after moving to Vancouver, he got a letter from the University say that he was accepted! He spent four long and hard years vigorously training and learning to become a doctor. On the fourth year, during a break in his studies, he decided to take a plane ride home to tell his family how good he was doing in all his classes! On the second day at his old home, the monsters started showing up. He and his family were forced into the city of Toronto, where they lived for a year, in fear of the creatures outside. Then the Combine came and he was separated from his family, only remaining with his brother. They were both shipped off to City 45. They were quietly talking aboard the train when Tyler was struck with an amazing idea! To jump off the train and live in the wilderness. Tyler wanted to do this because he heard he was to be amputated when he got there, due to his hunting expertise. But Ben was too scared and after a long argument Tyler jumped out by himself, leaving Ben alone on the train, heading into the city, scared. When he got there, he was quickly relived that it would be safer here, then it was before and that the ‘CCA’ would protect them, and because he was so grateful to be alive, he did whatever he could to help the newfound ‘Union’. Over time, he slowly forgot about his brother and is now working hard to enter the CWU., for he really wants to help the union better.

Name: Jack Trez

Citizen identification(CID): 94351

Last Assigned Apartment Number: A1

Age: 31

Why do you want to join the CWU?: From what I have seen the last couple weeks is that the Civil Worker's Union majorly tries to help the union and citizens in anyway they can from their current status. Since the day I first saw one help another citizen in need I aspired hopefully jion their ranks.

Have you ever been detained before?: I have never been detained before and I do not plan on being detained anytime soon.

Past experience with work/labor: Lately it seems I end up being told to clean the Union Civil Housing blocks. I have no problem with this since I just want to help others. Even if it is just cleaning their homes. I have also done some lifting for a female citizen. She wanted come of her furniture moved around so I helped her.

What will you do for us?: Mainly I want to keep the city cleaned. I will most likely try to keep a Civil Worker's Union store up and running so the citizens are able to get more food and supplies that they require or want. Maybe I will try to join the medical ranks and help injured citizens because it seems I like to help others that are hurt but it is contraband for me to have any supplies to truly help them.

How long have you been in City45?: I think a couple of weeks. I am not sure because I have not been keeping track.

Can CWU members be in possession of Alcohol?: Negative. They would never carry contraband.

Can CWU members be in possession of Knifes?: Negative. That would be a high level contraband and very bad for them.

If a citizen runs up to you and starts swearing what do you do?: First I would try to get him to calm down and ask him what is the matter. I would inform him that what he is doing is very bad and a violation both audio and mobility. Then if the situation called for it I would request for a Combine Civil Authority officer to come handle the situation. If I think the citizen is up to no good or any anti-union/civil actions I will try to walk away and notify the CCA of what he looks like and what he is up to.

Any disabilities?: I have none as of this moment but the future can withhold anything.

Have you ever been in a CWU Related Activity?: I have helped some CWU workers a couple times cleaning but other then that no.

Who are the Organizers of the CWU?: James Tavener, Ted Simmons, and John Bourne.

Character Backstory(Must be one paragraph): Jack Trez was not happy at first getting situated to his new life under the Union's rule. By as time slowly progressed he didn't really get much of a choice. Seeing his friends try to rebel and be put down,death, he decided he was not going to join them. He met a man one day. He was very strange but seemed very kind. Jack got some food from him since he wasn't allowed to get his ration. They talked for hours. The man slowly convinced Jack that he should just help the Union make the world a better place. Not rebel and make it harder for the citizens. Jack then decided he would help the Union hoping to become a CWU worker to do this best.

It  almost killed Jason, he felt demoralized. When the Combine had come and taken over Jason was moved into City 45 where he began to sell his stuff again however did not have the means to do it legally, so he did it illegally. As he began to build up a customer base he came across an associate and they teamed up too make them one of the best black market dealers in the city.

Character Backstory(Must be one paragraph):

Mikhail Koslov was born on the 28th February 1986. He was born to the parents Aleksei Koslov and Anna Koslov in the city of Saint Petersberg. He was baptised in Saint Isaac's Cathedral on the 9th March 1986 as his parents were Christians. His father was part of the Soviet Air Forces as a Private of Aviation, who was shortly killed in a firing practice drill accident in 1987. Mikhail's mother moved with him to the town of Luga after his father's death, where he was raised and lived until the Seven Hour War. Mikhail attended school but received poor grades except Mathematics, which he received outstanding grades in. As he grew into his teenager years, he continued to study Mathematics, along with Business Studies and also learned basic English, which he still struggles with today.

2005, Mikhail Koslov now runs a Corner Shop called Mikhail Merchandise along the main road through Luga. The business skills he picked up during his educational years paid off as he made enough to keep him well fed, clothed and watered. He managed to even make enough money to purchase a Double-Barrelled Shotgun for self-defense, which he used on one occasion in 2014 when a shoplifter attempted to steal cat food from the shelves. With the shotgun aimed at him, he attempted to toss a tin of cat food at Mikhail to blind him, which he missed and was taken out with a quick blast. Mikhail felt remorse from this action, and proceeded to dig a hole in the back of his shop where it was secluded by a brick wall and bury the body.

2015, portal storms occur throughout the world. Mikhail walks out of the front of his shop to observe what was going on, then it began, and they came. The Seven Hour War began. Chaos filled the streets of Liga, and throughout the world. Gunships, Hunters, Combine Synth Soldiers and other Synths and non-Earth lifeforms began entering Earth and invading. Mikhail screamed in fear, and as he turned to run, a Gunship flew past, shooting his shop and exploding it. The explosion knocked Mikhail over and sending him flying down the street. It knocked him unconscious.

At the end of the Seven Hour War, Mikhail transfered to City 17, the Citadel under construction. He was transferred by RAZOR Train and it was where he lived alone, starving, scared, for the next year. He then boarded the next train to the destination of City 45, where his story shall continue...

Character Backstory(Must be one paragraph):

Coulter Derkoh was born into a strong and healthy environment. Raised by a sailor, mothered by a stay-at-home mom. Born in Nova scotia, he'd soon learn to fish and sail. His family settled in a small cottage house near the southern shores. Being pushed into labor and hard work, he quickly learned to rig boats, sail the shores and eventually go on to sail various and devastating seas. Whilst him and his father were dedicated and die-hard sailors, they left his mother at home and neglected. They had no clue of how she felt though, as many situations within the family were left untouched and eventually were buried deep down beneath the seas. By the time he was 20 he already had plans to sail all the seven seas, ventured to every ocean, and battled every see monster... In his dreams.

Coulter, even at the age of 21, was a very imaginative man. He had dreams of sailing some of the biggest boats, the tallest masts, and the mightiest hulls. Eventually, he would. In fact, after he had turned 18 he moved out and pursued his dreams. Although, after a year none of that worked out. Almost broke, Coulter had to find a job and fast. By this time he moved to Prince Edward Island. Lost, he traveled back to Nova Scotia to move back in with his parents. His father had started a shipping business that hadn't made much progress, Coulter was hesitant at first to become a part of this, then realizing he had no other option. Finally, he'd have some financial freedom even though his father was a bit sneaky with the payments.

On his father's boat he had some of the best moments in his life. He had his first drink on that boat, Coulter wasn't the most tolerant person to alcohol. Spending most of his nights drinking over a good song, cherishing the moment with his crew mates. Speaking of crew mates, he'd made some great friends that he'd spend the rest of his life with. In fact, for almost 20 years he'd been on that boat now. Not a single argument or dispute had happened - that involved him. All this was soon taken away from him though. A tragic event that he will never forget.

The day was hot, Coulter and the rest of the crew had been working all day. The sun reflected off the deck of the ship. The best part was, half the crew was drunk. The sunlight infected the crew with nice, heavy, and painful sunburns. Yelling, dancing, and of course drinking was making it hard for the captain to focus... Funny thing is, most of the crew was stumbling off the boat, drowning, and even passing out from the alcohol. No one did anything, because they were either drunk or asleep. Little did they know, they'd soon meet there end too. Hours later, they'd docked in a port in Figi. A tropical island, only to be swarmed by clouds and rain. This is where Coulter's crew would meet there end. Lucky for Coulter, he's the main character of the story.

Leaving the ship, some of the crew was sober enough to help out. Coulter, just beginning to unload the ship had noticed something strange soaring in the skies. Something he'd thought to be from the drinking. Ignoring it, he continued to unload the boat... Which seconds later had exploded. The remnants raining from the sky, falling down to the ground leaving Coulter shocked. Before Coulter could act, he'd been knocked out himself. The cause, unknown.

He was soon transported across the seas and brought to City 45. This - this is where his story really begins.

Kevin was born with a loving mother and father. His father owned a general store in their local town. His mother stayed home and took care of Kevin at his young ages, watching over him. They were pretty wealthy and all had a very great life.

His father was a great person and was loved by all in the town. Everybody spoke about his shop and him in general.

At the age of 20 he took over the shop because his father was getting old and retired. Kevin kept the shop cleaned and original as his father liked it. The people still came to the shop and had long chat's with Kevin and bought stuff. He worked day to night, watching the sunset at dawn.

At the age of 26 his father died of a heart attack. It left his mother and him in shock. He deiced to close down the shop and stay home with his poor old mother. Town folks walked into the store to find a new shop owner and questioned him. They all heard the news and were heartbroken that a great friend is gone in their life.

The next year his mother also died from cancer that was unexpected and left Kevin depressed and very sad. He couldn't sleep, eat or speak for a long time. He woke up the next morning turning on his TV finding that 'Aliens' were attacking Earth. He looked out his window seeing many drop ships flying over the town. He then unlocked his door, and opened it. He was then hit in the face, he fell back onto the floor dizzy. The last thing he saw was combat boots moving past his head, he then fell unconscious.

Kevin was then brought to City 45 and became a citizen of his new City.

He could sell, He could sell a broken shoe to a rich man, and a house to a poor man, he could bargain to the lowest price, and raise his sales to the peaks he eliminated his rivals, but in this age, there was not much room for a salesman, before the 7 hour war he was too young and even now, he is not exactly old, but when the CWU was introduced he saw a path, another way for him to go, He wanted to take it with open arms. But could he?

Citizen Identification(CID): #70430

Last Assigned Apartment Number: UCH Complex, A2

Age: 26


Why do you want to join the CWU?
To help the community of City45 by, cleaning, medical help, or even just helping citizens get supplies they would need. I also want to make every citizen living in the community to feel safe and feel as they are well treated.

Have you ever been detained before?
Yes I have been detained. It must of been a miss understanding of some sort. They came to get me out of detainment earlier than told.

Past experience with work/labor:
I used to be a RN or a nurse before the war. I worked at a UT South Western Medical Center Dallas TX. I was only trained to apply medicine, treat wounds, and help with emotional support for the patients. My family used to own a small corner-shop earlier on, before the war, as I was a teenager, I helped around there and took over the shop time to time.

What will you do for us?
Well if I must I could become a medical helper, but I lean toward the business side. I did love working the shop back with my parents. I still do work a small shop in City45. When in training I would help out around the shops, or take over if I must. I would also try to set up shacks/shops around the city, selling citizens lemonade, oranges or other items.

How long have you been in City45?
I have been in City45 for at least 5-6 months now. I enjoy the city and how its turning out so far. I did transfer from many cities, so far loving this one the most.

Can a CWU member be in possession of Alcohol?
Yes, for medical reasons, I would believe, as in sterilizing a wound by applying it, but for reasons such as drinking, or selling it, then no.

Can CWU member be in possession of knifes?
Yes, knifes are used as a tool for some medical needs, but they would not be allowed to be held by a regular citizen, it would equal to danger and harm.

If a citizen runs up to you and starts swearing what do you do?
Well, I would try to calm the citizen down to see what the real problem is, but if its to be offensive to the Union, CWU, or to the Combine, then I would get an officer to stop the problem and to keep it from getting worse.

Any disabilities?
Yes I do have a small disability, I have minor OCD, little things annoy me, such as, to much trash lying around, dirty windows, and unnecessary sprays, or propaganda on random building walls or windows.

Have you ever been in a CWU related activity?
Little things such as a CWU member getting a small group together to clean windows, but nothing recently that comes to mind.

Who are the organizers of the CWU?
The organizers are Ted Simmons and James Tavener I believe.

Roleplay Experience: Eight years total with four years on Garrysmod.  Two years of that has been dedicated to Half Life 2 RP, mostly. I have played a Civil Administrator as well as a Sector Commander in my previous year and a half at PubGamer HL2RP. I have also led the Civil Service District (closely related to the Civil Workers Union though with a few differences) and Lambda at the same community which required massive amounts of attention. I was in charge of an intelligence collection and analysis group known as Third Eye which was one of the highlights of my time back at PubGamer. Obviously I didn't hold all these roles at the same times due to various conflicts of interest. At Catalyst Gaming, I currently manage my own group and I play Doctor Lauren Neil.

Why do you want to be accepted into the CWU?: Under the recommendation of some of the other players, it has been suggested to me that I should join the Civil Workers Union due to the quality of roleplay that comes out of the group. Having led a similar group back at PubGamer, I'm almost certain that they speak the truth.

Character Backstory(Must be one paragraph):
Nicole Mason was born an only child in Sydney, Australia. Her parents adored her very much, although that love was noted by several sources close to the family to be ‘difficult to maintain’ – due to work commitments. She grew up considerably well off despite the fact that her family lived in a working class suburb. On the eve of her birthday, the occupation had taken the world by storm. From the ground, she saw the urbanised districts emitting a sickening orange glow as fires broke out across the skyline. Screams and explosions echoed through the streets. She emerged from the rubble of her home to a new world. What was once a vibrant city was now a wasteland of flame and ash - the sky filled with stray shots of both conventional ammunition and the signature pulses of energy.

After relocation, Nicole found herself residing in City Forty Five, somewhere in Europe. Nicole began to believe that she was in the game for herself. That meant that she had to be the last one standing, no matter the cost. As a result of her thinking, she began to make use of what she could to survive and this was the beginning of a path that almost brought about her destruction. Having made several regrettable mistakes of which she was remorseful for, Nicole began to actively participate in Civil Workers Union work tasks whenever the opportunity arose. With time, Nicole began to improve her attitude towards the Union and shift away from the life of an undesirable member of society.

A chance encounter with an application for a full-time position with the Civil Workers Union appeared to be her salvation.

Name: Jenna Hartlan
Citizen identification(CID):84603
Last Assigned Apartment Number: UCH Apartment B5
Age: 27

Why do you want to join the CWU?: Joining the CWU has always seemed like the best way I can help my fellow citizens and others, in my opinion. I'm not strong, or fast, or at all cut out for the CCA, but I still love the place I call home, and helping make it a better place seems fulfilling and worthwhile. Plus, it's a great opportunity to learn business and medical skills. I personally am mainly interested in the business side of things, but learning a few medical skills does not seem at all a bad thing to do, and the CWU would give me an opportunity to do it.

Have you ever been detained before?: I have not been detained before, my record is spotless.

Past experience with work/labor: My past labor experiences include co-managing a small grocer before the war, as well as my father being a suit-and-tie fancied up business man. He taught me a multitude of things when I was young, including basic economical ideas. He was a great teacher, and was quite exceptional at getting a point across. Also, I've taken fondly to running a small shop selling items to citizens, such as paper, water, backpacks, and other basic goods.

What will you do for us?: For the CWU, I will attempt to help whomever needs it to the best of my abilities. Whatever I can do, I hope it can help, be it assisting with a shop, or helping out with any medical procedures needed. Although I won't be as much of use in anything medically related, I can definitely help out with a shop or stand.

How long have you been in City45?: Around 2 months, and I've acclimated to the layout of the City quite well, in my opinion.

Can CWU members be in possession of Alcohol?: Only if they are using it in medical procedures, or are otherwise allowed by the CCA. Otherwise, alcohol is contraband.

Can CWU members be in possession of Knifes?: Yes, but only if it is being used for medical procedures, but only during medical procedures. otherwise, they are not allowed.

If a citizen runs up to you and starts swearing what do you do?: First, I would attempt to calm the citizen. If he refuses to calm down, and keeps shouting profanities, I would request assistance using a Request Device. If I do manage to calm down, I would work with the citizen to isolate the root of the problem. If possible, I will help to solve the problem. If the problem is out of my power, I would direct him to the area the could most easily assist him.

Any disabilities?: I have OCD, in that i must have doors closed, and if I spin in one direction, I must spin equally in the other direction to even it out. Things lacking symmetry irritate me, but I can generally ignore that in items I cannot change the appearance of. I am also a serious neat-freak, and i must have everything very orderly. I simply cannot stand a lack of organisation.

Have you ever been in a CWU Related Activity?: I have not been in a specific activity, however I have actually bought milk from a milk stand the CWU was running. (Which, I might add, was refreshing and worth the price.)

Who are the Organizers of the CWU?: Ted Simmons and James Travener I believe are the organizers of the Civil Workers Union. I'm not 100% sure, but it sounds right in my head.

Name: Saint Kairu

Timezone: EST (Eastern USA)

SteamID: STEAM_0:0:24712918

Roleplay Experience: I've roleplayed in Play-by-Post for around 5-6 years. I've only picked up on GMod RP, specifically HL2RP in the past 1-2 years. I was first involved with Our Benefactors/Relentless RP (When they were combined.) WHen they shut down, I grew apart from HL2RP. I only picked it back up when I discovered Catalyst-Gaming. I fell in love almost immediately(Cue montage of me spinning around with any character model from CG in a grassy field backed by the cliche love montage music). The admins were great and active, the members were respectful and, for the most part, friendly and superb Roleplayers. On RelentlessRP, I had a CCA unit, and a CWU member, whom was very enjoyable to roleplay as.

Why do you want to be accepted into the CWU?: I want to get into the CWU because I enjoy passive roleplay, and I think participating in the little things that the CWU does would be a grand experience. Another reason, which is not a very good one, but a reason all the same, is that I am a bit of a completionist. I like to do everything that is within my power to do. Don't get me wrong, I always develop a single character at a time, and I never fully abandon a character if I can help it. It's just that, with so much to do I want to do it all.

Character Backstory(Must be one paragraph): Jenna is a simple person with simple goals. She hails from what was New York state. She lived just below Ontario, in what I consider to be Canada's right pocket. Her life was simple, and her education was average. Her parents, however, we not as average as the schools. He father was a big business-man. He ran his own company, a plumbing company, and was very strategic when it came to his line of work. Jenna's mother ran a small street-corner grocer that sold basic items like bread, eggs, milk, etc. Jenna started helping out around the store at about 10, but she kept taking on more and more of the work as her mother grew older and weaker.

At 16, Jenna's mother died, and Jenna took over the store. When people inquired upon her mother's health, Jenna learned to reply that she was simply resting. It was, in a metaphorical sense, true. Life moved on, though, with school, work, and her father's small talks about different aspects of business. Then the war came. Her father gave in quickly to the Combine, and, although she did not live with him, she followed his example. She was quickly separated from her father, ushered into different Cities. for a while, Jenna was transferred around from city to city, until finally she ended up in City 45.

She was average early on, but she wishes to be extraordinary, now.

Accepted for Interview.  I see you being a good medical person :P.

(IC PART)
Name:Kyle Fendi
Citizen identification(CID):#44008
Last Assigned Apartment Number:A2
Age: Twenty nine (29)

Why do you want to join the CWU?:I would like to join the civil workers union to help citizens with their problems, as a therapist. I think citizens would come talk to be about their probelms because I am not in a suit. Also I would like to be a small shop owner and help bring up the number of loyalists. As a therapists I would get to know the citizen and if he or she is a anticitizen I would report them to the Combine for a brainwashing/detainment session.

   Further more, I would like to be a criminal profiler and help solve anti citizens cases, which later I will use to try to apply for the Combine Civil Authority. The Division that would suit me in this senerio, would be JURY. Right now, I am training myself to get better in the art of profiling, and therapy, so I make more use to the Union, the life style, and the job is a big step up from being a citizen, and I know the job will change my life forever.

Have you ever been detained before?: I think once.
Past experience with work/labor:I remeber, helping citizens with their problems, and I've worked in a shop and cleaned it for a while.
What will you do for us?:I will help citizens with their problems ensuring no malcompliant citizens, After detainment if the citizen is very angry, he/she can be sent to me for help.
How long have you been in City45?:Hm... About a month or so
Can CWU members be in possession of Alcohol?:I will not be able to, but yes only for medical purposes such as disinfecting cuts.
Can CWU members be in possession of Knifes?:I will also not be able to, but yes for medical purposes such as sealing cuts.
If a citizen runs up to you and starts swearing what do you do?:Because I am a therapist I would either ask to help him with his problem, or report him if he seems unhelpable
Any disabilities?:I have a slight vision problem, it will most likely go away in about a year or so.
Have you ever been in a CWU Related Activity?:Yes, actually, I've sweeped the shops and assisted in the shop
Who are the Organizers of the CWU?:The Organizers of the Civil Workers Union are James Tavener and Ted Simmons

(OOC PART)
Name:|| BBI || Joe
Timezone:Eastern
SteamID:STEAM_0:1:32294015
Roleplay Experience:I've been roleplaying for about two years now, a few months on catalyst gaming, most of my time spaced out
Why do you want to be accepted into the CWU?:I think the Civil Workers Union would help develope my loyalist. Also it would be a really nice roleplay experiance being a CWU in catalyst. It would also fit me because I LOVE to passive roleplay and can do it all day, I really don't care much about medical roleplaying but passive roleplaying like helping citizens with their problems seems very nice and calm to me.
Character Backstory(Must be one paragraph):Kyle Fendi an very kind man, although he really doesn't have much abilites over the normal man, he can talk to someone and convince them to do whatever he wants them to do. Because he is really not a fan of hurting people he doesn't want to join the CCA until he feels more fitted for it. So he thinks helping them would be way better than sitting there waiting for a gut to emerge. He actually helped save a few people from getting shot because of his relaxing tone and his convincing intelligence. His life is helping the CPs and thats what he loves to do. He would love to keep the city safe, by letting citizens release their anger and having their mental disabilites fixed. Not only would he help anti citizens  with their problems, he would also like to learn how the anti-citiziens act, and would like to join the Combine Civil Authority, to join the JUDGE Division. *Kyle starts to feel happy as he hands the worker his application, and walks out into the open feeling happiness, something he hasn't felt in a long time.*
*Side note* I now have ttrust, took a long wait but I got it now.

Format Not Properly Done(Missing all the bold tags). Reapply when cycle9 starts, no wait period.
