Hary Smith's Civil Authority ApplicationOOC Name: That Guy in a Box
IC Character Name: Hary Smith
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.Upon learning about the CCA, Hary became instantly interested, its reputation was undoubtedly superior to many - especially that of his own citizenry. In his short life in C45, Hary has found the streets to be befouled with lawlessness, murder, and many other things that are not in line. He also sees the UU as a second chance at life for the Human race, without their help we would all plunge into darker times. Although the farthest back he could remember was after the 7-Hour War, he still knows that life before was basically a crash course. He has grown tired of minimal contributions to the UU's progress, i.e. requesting when he sees something amiss, or cleaning up the streets. Hary knows he is capable of doing, learning, and supporting more. The Combine Civil Authority is the perfect vehicle to drive these mutual common initiatives/missions.
He barely remembers life before the 7-Hour War, but Hary has always instinctively wished to become something along the lines of enforcing the law and restoring order for the greater good of the world. This is also part of the reason he yearns to join; a mysterious feeling at the back of his mind that he has always been one wishing to be a unit. Of course it goes without saying there are obvious advantages to unit living with a respectable organization. Being a part of a highly respected union, receives an extension of respect, upgraded living conditions, and an escape from a life of cleaning graffiti off the streets - Hary cannot deny he has ambitions.
As part of his extensive effort to join the highly admirable CCA, Hary has created networks with similarly interested citizens to gain insight and tools to prepare him for his ultimate goal. Hary only hopes his determination will eventually payoff and he can start proving his value.
2) Please detail your characters traits. (Eg, Pure, Lawful, Trustworthy)Hary is:
Loyal - He will always, has always, been a loyal man to the cause of the UU.
Trustworthy - Hary can be trusted with many tasks, as well as many secrets.
Obedient - Hary does not dare resist his superiors and his orders.
Lawful - Hary only believes in maintaining order, and protecting Civil Society.
Polite - Hary has always been one of manners and politeness.
Cooperative - Hary has always been one to cooperate with the orders of those superior to him.
3) Please provide 2 paragraphs about what you are expecting the Combine Civil Authority to be like for you and your character.I expect the CCA to be a different, more exciting RPing experience then that of the Citizen RP. I am excited to interact and learn from more seasoned and serious players. The possibility of independence from the oppression of Citizen RP, is like a light at the end of the tunnel. Although I don't expect to be a key player from the beginning, I look forward to developing my character and my skills to that of the CCA's higher standards.
As for Hary, the prospect of broadening his limited knowledge of the military and training, it will be an invigorating and stupendously challenging experience. It would be his only desire to assist the CCA and the UU as much as he can. Hary as always looked at himself as more of a enforcer, the anything else. He'd much rather go on patrols, and do some of the dirty work then other things with meager results.
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.WHAT HE REMEMBERS-
Last Hary remembers, he was walking down the street, was startled by gunfire and strange crafts appeared in the air. Soon enough a building would begin to crumble and Hary's head was hit by some concrete debris, knocking him out cold. He then awakens in a very dark, strange room, accompanied by robotics and strange creatures fitting him with a blue jumpsuit, he could barely remember how to speak. A small room with a screen taught him about life and history, and how to speak, the voice having an English Accent, strongly influenced Hary's own accent. He then was escorted to a train station where he boarded a train for City 45. Hary found himself being closely watched by masked men and cameras, as he finally got off the train. He was searched for anything out of the ordinary, such as weapons or other contraband. As he finally got out of the train station he found himself in a orderly society, with all the necessities needed and at no cost, which surprised him, the generosity of his conquerors was great to him. He then went to the UCH, where he was assigned a new apartment, which further baffled him to learn he was not the only one shown such hospitality. He felt great appreciation towards the UU, and how generous they've been to his kind.
WHAT HE DOES NOT REMEMBER-
Hary, ironically was not born in England, it was actually the hit to the head that forced him to relearn language with the computer English accent. Though he does not remember it, his real name is Lorenzo. Hary was born in New York where he lived in a small town, having a nice life for a child at the time. He grew up around a unruly set of children in his young life, always being influenced to do drugs, and alcohol. He was always the one above those sort of unlawful things that he would never in his life partake. He loved school and it's teachings, especially the subjects of Science and History. He grew up being one to like the histories of fallen militaristic empires. Hary grew a liking towards the tactics of City style Guerrilla Warfare and interested in the methods of certain terrorist/rebellion groups such as the I.R.A, and the Taliban. He also had a growing interest in Science, and the workings of the world and how things worked. As he grew older he started to become interested in becoming a law enforcer, though with all is school work he never had the time to really become one, this saved him from death in the 7-Hour War. That one, faithful day when the Combine launched their attack upon the Earth in which devastated the world's population centers, and the Combine rule had begun. Hary on his way to the grocery when strange crafts flew upon the air, and strange creatures roamed the land. He began to run to his home when a large building started to crumble, and the falling debris knocked him out.

7. What�s your most memorable quality RP experience?It was on a WoW RP server, whitest I was still in The First Regiment. We had just received orders to attack a enemy fortification by Twilight Cultists in Loch Modan. As we charged we EASILY took the battlefield against our cultist combatants. I and some other charged straight for the highest point in the mound, in which we took on some of the heavier defenses. I engaged a female Night Elf in which I had knocked over, thus getting the attention of her angry friend. The two easily overpowered me as I was thrown straight back. I was then cooked in my own armor by one of the two women. It took maybe ten minutes before a friendly Gnome Medic came by, and another Dwarf who eliminated the female and helped me heal up, and get up. I soon went straight back into the heat of the battle, assisting a friend in a dual combat against an enemy Death Knight, we fought hard against him but we soon prevailed.
