Tom James Palmer's Civil Authority Application

OOC Name: Triangle

IC Character Name: Tom James Palmer

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.
My Character, Tom Palmer, wishes to join the Combine Civil Authority team because he wishes to protect, to serve, and to help all in City 45, He is will trained and has been Civil Protection in many other cities (servers) and is capable to join.
Tom Palmer is also a very well trained CCA, and has the fitness, strength, and agility to join the combine civil authority team.

He has been transferred from C32 to C45, and has had many experiences in the half life 2 world. He respects the Combine Authority, he has never been in trouble with them, and has the respect and attitude for the job. Tom has also lost his family due to the rebels, and he now supports the combines help across the world, and would like to join them and help protect city 45.

Tom has also has had much experience as a CCA, as back before he got transferred to C45 from C32, he was born and brought up in C18, where he became a combine civil authority. He is very skilled with role-playing as a combine, and has the activeness and loyalty to join the team.

2) Please detail your characters traits. (Eg, Pure, Lawful, Trustworthy)
My character will be very loyal, he will be very supportive and will take commands without doubt from higher ranked Civil Authorities.

He will also be 100% trustworthy for the job, and will never abuse, will never do his job in a way that is not expected by the City Administrators.

He will without doubt be active and respectable towards other civilians and other CCA's.

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 Combine Civil Authority job to be difficult for my character, without doubt, but as the phrase goes, "We do things not because they are easy, but because they are hard." And my character as a CCA, will not give up, will not whine about the laws and rules, and will be a very important new life for my character.

I also expect it to be important for my character, not many civilians get this opportunity, and he will pull through and be an extremely good CCA. Every new opportunity will be difficult at first, but he will not fail, he will not give up, and most of all, he will do you proud.

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.
My character, Tom Palmer, has been moved around a lot. He is only 33 years of age, and has been transferred to 3 different cities. He was brought up in C18, and at age 20, he became a CCA, he was a great CCA, and was the most respected man in the city. He was raised by his father, Bryan Palmer, who was head of the nexus in City 18, his brother was also a CCA, and they were the best CCA'S and respected people in the city. Unfortunately, rebels raided the nexus, killing hundreds of civil authorities, including his father and his brother. Since that massacrer, Tom had to run and go far away and start a new life, and this is how he ended up in City 32, at age 24, Tom arrived at C32, and lived a quiet, normal civilian life, he had an apartment, he had 4 room mates and enjoyed his rations, some of them anyway. But after 9 years of living in C32, an evacuation took place due to a a nuclear combine plant leak, causing many deaths, and head crabs to escape the plant, Tom now had to move to city45, the best running and safest city in all of half life 2, Tom is planning on staying here for the rest of his life, and has been here for 2 months, he has met many civilians, and goes to the park every day to feed the birds, he salutes the nexus and the statue every day, and has met many civil authorities that have helped him and supported his new life in City forty five. Tom has gone through a lot in his life, but these have manned him up more than ever, and now, Tom is ready to become a CCA once again, but better than ever before.

5) Have you ever had a CCA character here at Catalyst Gaming?  If so, explain why it was removed.
No, I have never had a CCA character. I hope for this to be my first.
