City Administrator / Re: Reconcerning CA Apps
« on: November 20, 2011, 11:49:12 PM »
I second this, not only with CA apps as they are needed and not many are as active as I'd hope but also for others such as OTA and authorization. The authorizations section has quite a few apps in there that are just drifting along waiting to be observed...

Also, another thing that people do if failrp in certain situations, like if a CP is there pointing a freakin' shotty in their face they stay there like, "SHOOT ME FUCKER! FJKSKSDK" that is really obnoxious and makes me want to kick a duckling.

Mapping / Re: Mapper Introductions

I'm Sexy Frog, I'm a mapper.
Now I've never completed an RP map but I have done a TTT map before known as TTT_Giant_Daycare. Good or not, that is debateable but non the less I made it and it was when I was less experianced. I will say that with a recent TTT map I'm working on I'm having a problem where whenever I load the rendered .BSP into Gmod it crashes Gmod entirely. If anyone can help me with this I would love you long time. Oh and how to impliement custom models/props that are not source ready would be awesome too. Anyways, yeah, that's pretty much it.

Okay, well can I have some time to dumb down her speech a little? I really am excited to RP in outlands with something other than a human, I would hate to have to wait another week....i just got home so it would not take more than 30 minutes to edit and proof read.

How is several years not long enough? I don't see how that isn't a sufficent period of time. We arent talking about like 2 or 3 years, Tekel'Pakem had been captured longer than this like atleast 8 or more years and has had been trying to learn english since her captivity in C18 and went through all transfers learning along tge way and practicing while held in holding. If this many years is not enough for an alien to learn english, mind you an 85 year old very intellectual organism who is essentially much smarter than the average human, what is?

Age: 85

Affiliation: None

Write a detailed in-canon back-story how your character obtained these authorizations.
The air was crisp and warm, the sun lazily beaming down over the outlands landscape. The vortigaunt known as Tekel’Pakem sat along the wall of the sewers, its muck smearing onto her back as two humans, both of which had weapons joined her. One was armed with an “MP7”, as the humans referred to it; she had blonde hair and green eyes and went by “The Rita”. While the other had nothing but a pipe, he had black hair and brown eyes and went by “The Eric” both of which were on the opposite wall from Tekel’Pakem looking about alertly for possible OTA. The female spoke up, her voice weary from a long days travel, “Now that we are finally in the safety of the sewers, Tekel, why not tell us how you ended up here? You know, in outlands…” The Eric nodded in agreement to her statement and said curiously, “Please do!” Tekel’Pakem looked at the too, her large round eyes darting about thoughtfully, as the noise of choppers rang about in the distance, “Very well, Tekel’Pakem have grown to trust the humans. Listen, for Tekel’Pakem shall only tell tale once and once alone.” She looked down into the murky sewage water and began, “Once, long ago Tekel’Pakem came from border world known to the humans as, Xen-” Her tale of how she came to be of this world had begun.
“Tekel’Pakem was there, her kin and Tekel’Pakem, we been awaiting the Renar’kek’s ritual, as the Renar’kek choose extend training and study our kin’s not well past. We, one of few peaceful tribes of Xen, and this was before time that Tekel’Pakem spoke your “English”, so expect Vortigese, Tekel’Pakem’s native language. As Tekel’Pakem was telling, yes, we were awaiting the Ranar’Kek’s ritual… the Denok’Alar gone to the Renar’kek’s hut to call him over for ritual in most befitting wear. We been waiting this moment for several decades, the Denok’Alar had returned with the Renar’kek and they strode to ritual grounds proud, all our kin watched on with glee and all proud!  The Denok’Alar had begun saying words of our people; Tekel’Pakem still remembers exact words the Denok’Alar spoke, even now. “Gala gol, henok gong tar amak, Dagok atag ga magoi-” The Denok’Alar had cut off when great tear scratched sky. Tear opened swiftly and showed image, like of world Tekel’Pakem never seen, many kin of Tekel’Pakem’s scattered, fearful. Tekel’Pakem, like most, joined panic and began to flee as rift began to absorb all in path! Tear lifted tightly rooted Xen plants and fungus from right under hoof, Tekel’Pakem had seen the Renar’kek holding plants and onto the Denok’Alar, after they too, swallowed by the abyss. Tekel’Pakem ran but not make very far as Tekel’Pakem had begun lifting off of ground, Tekel’Pakem tried to hang to anything she set claw on, but to no use! Tekel’Pakem had been sent skyward into tear and last memory Tekel’Pakem have of her home world was shrieks and vision of villagers fleeing or lifting away with her.” Tekel’Pakem looked up focused, her eyes became blurry; and then without warning, she realized her eyes had begun to leak. She lifted her arm and wiped at the tears and looked back to the humans whom had looks of sorrow and sympathy upon their faces. “No pity Tekel’Pakem; she not need the humans attempt for sympathy. You want listen, and so Tekel’Pakem tell.” She looked to the water again and begun recalling her tale once more.
“First memory Tekel’Pakem had of planet she on now, was of her falling great distance from unknown height, her eyes little blinded by rushing gusts of wind but Tekel’Pakem was able make out tall, curious flora. All green and Tekel’Pakem kept falling, she fell until she landed in one of tall, wood creatures the humans call, “trees”. Tekel’Pakem fell into tree, hitting many limbs on way down but Tekel’Pakem managed landing onto lush green ground without serious injury. However, hitting ground, Tekel’Pakem had fallen unconscious. When she had woken, there was not much about, lush green trees and grass only. Tekel’Pakem gotten to her hooves and limping in random direction, soon meeting rather….unfriendly creature. It was creature Tekel’Pakem had never laid eyes on, nothing same compared to those of Xen, was of color yellow with odd black spots and bellowed its attack call fiercely, though Tekel’Pakem cannot recall name it-” Tekel’Pakem was interrupted by the Rita as she said, “I’m quite sure that was a Jaguar…they were beautiful animals. Actually quite-” The Rita had stopped mid-sentence as she saw Tekel’Pakem glaring at her angrily and stuttered, “Uh…s-sorry…” Tekel’Pakem nodded her thanks and began again, “As Tekel’Pakem had been saying, this “Jaguar” as the Rita say uttered  fierce roar and jumped at Tekel’Pakem, she been wounded at time and was knocked off her hooves as it tried to slash at her, luckily for Tekel’Pakem she had heard call of her kin as they rushed Tekel’Pakem’s aid! They charged green powers of Vortessence and shot them at creature. It feel aside, limp with large scorch where blow had hit. Tekel’Pakem lifted herself and held her side as the kin rushed to her saying, “Togel den awak, golek gullam?” Tekel’Pakem simply replied, “Togek, regok Tekel’Pakem.” Tekel’Pakem’s kin landed in lands several hours ahead of her and created small camp not far from where she had been. Tekel’Pakem was able, with help of her kin to get to camp, where the kin used their Vortessence to areas of her injuries order for healing.  We stayed put many days, hidden away from sight and surviving off of unknown plants and animals, when peace we had kept for small amount of time undone as the “Combine” began to invade! They fired, left and right killing most of Tekel’Pakem’s kin as we fled through trees, a small amount of us lived but those who did such as Tekel’Pakem forced to slavery as what Combine called, “Conscripts”. At this point Tekel’Pakem still knew little to no English, the bit she did know was what Combine said over communication devices. Soon, we arrive to “City 45” Tekel’Pakem and her kin met up with others her kind within confides of, “Nexus”; however, we was under constant watch. Eventually, Tekel’Pakem’s kin and herself managed to take moment to speak with others and we learned of Vortigaunt who been killed for fiddling with Combine machinery. It was then that Tekel’Pakem was told of name and she fell into depression for several month as was her kin, the Renar’kek had perished and that when Tekel’Pakem decided to learn the English, where she excelled at the tongue rather swiftly,  the humans use constant. In the midst of Tekel’Pakem’s depression, she been released from holding by unit as they took her out to clean city; it there Tekel’Pakem met the humans as the humans attacked officer before he call for help. The Rita took units instrument of death and the Eric dealt unit great damage with pipe.” Tekel’Pakem ended her story with a sigh.
The humans nodded understandingly as they too peered into the murky waters of the canal. The humming of chopper propellers suddenly grew much louder and swifter, as a helicopter which at first appeared as a dot in the horizon and then began to grow and grow until it was too near for comfort! The trio shot up alarmed, “Run, humans! Run!” hissed Tekel’Pakem as her hooves clopped on the ground from trotting deeper into the darkness of the sewer, The Rita and the Eric following at her heels, they managed to escape, but were certainly not free....

What will these authorizations give your character in regards to perks or defects?
Perks
+ Can speak both Vortigese fluently
+ Can use Vortessence
+ Does know some English


Defects
- Huge target of OTA forces
- Over usage of Vortessence can cause her to faint
- On the run, and tries to avoid contact
- Her English is not at it's best and she refers to herself in third person



What do you plan to do with these perks/defects?
Become more active in the outlands server than I have been in the past and try to bring as much interesting roleplay into this server as it's population has been dwindling. I hope to lead people who walk the path of IC evil to the path of good and teach them from their errors.



Will anyone else need these auths? (If so, list OOC and IC name(s))
No.

Which server does this apply for?
Outlands

Extra Notes (optional):
 I have done much reading on the Vortigaunt canon since my incident with my Vort slave and now, I truly believe I'm ready. I have asked Lewis to review my backstory before submitting it to make sure it was good enough and he said it was, I even contacted Teh Penguin, though he has not responded, I will tell you what he said when he does check it out. I think I have gotten better, not only have I been looking at the history but I've also carefully been watching how the Vorts in Outlands roleplay and how they speak. I believe I captured this in my backstory as best as I possibly could. Also, incase nobody noticed, I tied Tekel'Pakem's backstory in with Renar'Kek's (my vort slave) so I thought it was a neat touch. Also, regarding the edited backstory, I'm pretty sure the though during the time of C18 we didn't OOCly have Conscripts, I'm pretty sure they were around ICly. Though I'm not sure I think cities has Vort slaves to clean the place up.

*Edited it to fix the backstory and make her english understanding plausable for the amount of time she had been learning, she misses words and does say some wrong in the text on purpose as this is the only way she can speak english. I hope this is satisfactory now.

The humming of chopper propellers suddenly grew much louder and swifter, as a helicopter which at first appeared as a dot in the horizon and then began to grow and grow until it was too near for comfort! The trio shot up alarmed, “Run, humans! Run!” hissed Tekel’Pakem as her hooves clopped on the ground from trotting deeper into the darkness of the sewer, The Rita and the Eric following at her heels, they managed to escape, but were certainly not free....
What will these authorizations give your character in regards to perks or defects?
+ Can speak both Vortigese and English fluently
+ Can use Vortessence
- Huge target of OTA forces
- Over usage of Vortessence can cause her to faint
- On the run, and tries to avoid contact

What do you plan to do with these perks/defects? Become more active in the outlands server than I have been in the past and try to bring as much interesting roleplay into this server as it's population has been dwindling. I hope to lead people who walk the path of IC evil to the path of good and teach them from their errors.
Will anyone else need these auths? (If so, list OOC and IC name(s)) No.
Extra Notes (optional): I have done much reading on the Vortigaunt canon since my incident with my Vort slave and now, I truly believe I'm ready. I have asked Lewis to review my backstory before submitting it to make sure it was good enough and he said it was, I even contacted Teh Penguin, though he has not responded, I will tell you what he said when he does check it out. I think I have gotten better, not only have I been looking at the history but I've also carefully been watching how the Vorts in Outlands roleplay and how they speak. I believe I captured this in my backstory as best as I possibly could. Also, incase nobody noticed, I tied Tekel'Pakem's backstory in with Renar'Kek's (my vort slave) so I thought it was a neat touch.

Yet Gordon manages to get an advisor killed. Human, mind you.
