Character name: Enrico de Madrid
Character profession: Merchant Leader
Character affiliation: PFTC (Purple Flower Trading Company)
Character location: Pascua Florida (Florida), PFTC Trade HQ
Character nationality: Spain
I have read the expectations, and promise to follow them: Yes
Character backstory (Summary in ~100words): Enrico Arrenez was born in Madrid, Spain. He is commonly referred to as Enrico de/of Madrid. Enrico became interested in trade by his father, Juan Arrenez. He moved to Pascua Florida at 21 years old. He lived there for a few years and finally was able to get his first ship, the Barco de Arrenez (Ship of Arrenez). He set out as the Captain of a small 20 man crew. They first only traded in domestic Florida ports. But when they had become rich enough, he bought more ships, and sailed to different places, like Cuba, Colombia, or the present day Bahamas. They have a total of four ships, all with captains. At the age of 43, Enrico settled back in Florida, where he built the PFTC HQ and leads the companys trade ventures. They own two ports in Florida and Colombia. Enrico is not in bad standing with any faction, even Pirates, who have agreed to not raid their ships after Enrico agreed to do trade with them. But rogue ships still try to loot PFTC ships. But none have been sunk, yet.

~IC PART~ Full Name: Sarah Collins Citizen identification(CID): 10508 Last Assigned Apartment Number: A1 Total Loyalist Points: -No more loyalist points- Sex: Female Age: 28 How long have you been in City45: I have lost accurate track, but it should be about three weeks, give or take a few days. Why do you want to join the CWU?: I would like to help out around the City as much as possible. I have thought about this for a while and I think that being in the CWU would be the best possible way for me to legally help the population of City 45. If possible, I will help everyone in City 45 in the best way I can. I have always wanted to help around the City when I saw what some of the conditions had ended up as. I did think and I noticed that the main reason may be the invasion. But I understood that there isn't any fighting what has come and gone, and besides, we have no overpopulation, low crime, and little to no air pollution because of the electric APCs and other synthetic vehicles. Have you ever been detained before?(If so why): No, I do my best to not cause problems around the City as that would be opposite of why I would like to join the CWU. Past experience with work/labor: When I was young I used to be a medical intern. But that wasn't my only employment, I also volunteered to help around our city and clean up pollution and plant trees. Although it was not a paying job, my parents helped put me through college with the little money I could make by working at Target as an assistant manager. Name 4 things the CWU Can possess, and 4 things we cant. Also state why.: The CWU can possess the power to help others and to save lives. They can do anything from simply showing a citizen where they can get some knowledge about keeping healthy, to actually saving lives or teaching how to save others when they have to. The CWU also sells important items to citizens who would like to add something special to their life, like maybe some delicious CWU approved lemonade or an orange. They can also organize small citizen events that would bring everyone together to help clean the City, or help after a disaster. They do all of this because this is their job, this is what the CWU is really for. But the CWU has it's limits. They aren't peacekeepers like the CCA. They aren't there to uphold the laws and keep the City safe. They cannot possess weapons to help the CCA in efforts to enforce law. The CWU cannot, in any way, shape, or form, assist in unlawful activity like assisting a criminal or disrespecting an officer. They cannot do these things because some of these things are the CCA's job, and some are counter-productive to the CWU's cause. Tell us about what you can do.: I am kind of a universal helper, if you will. I can assist in basic medical treatment from the internship I had. But one thing that I oddly have to do with some things, is organize and categorize. I really just love keeping things symmetrical and tidy. Clean and perfect is what I aim for in whatever I do. I also consider myself a people person. I get along well with others, I have a hard time making enemies. One last thing I can do is have a good work ethic, when I have to do something, I get it done, sometimes better than expected. If a citizen asks for help and is new to the city, what would you do?: I would first introduce myself and what the CWU does around here. I would show him around, where to go and not to go. I would show him where the CCA headquarters was and where the CWU headquarters was. I would also teach him about some of the people here, how they react to certain kinds of social interaction, and how to look good in front of officers. If he was unfamiliar with our current laws and restrictions, I would help him understand them so that he could stay out of trouble. I would, in the end, ask if I had answered all of his questions and if wanted to know more about our City. If he said he did not need anymore help, I would guide him to the UCH and tell him that these are the apartments and to speak to an officer to be assigned a room. ~OOC Section~ Name: cfitz22 Timezone: GMT -1 SteamID: Steam_0:1:26392319 Roleplay Experience: Generally, I have been roleplaying for about 4 months. Serious Roleplay Experience: I have been playing serious role-play servers for about 1 and a half months or more. Detail a regular day as a worker of the CWU?: A usual day as a CWU worker would probably include stressful days and hard work. My character will encounter seemingly impossible tasks, and a lot of labor. She will have to sometimes work with imbeciles to complete tasks that citizens must participate in. She will also have to follow procedures and sometimes meaningless orders and do useless jobs. But she knows what she signed up for and what she is working at. She knows she is working alongside the other CWU workers for a better future for their City. But towards the end of the day, Sarah will have met new people, helped the City she lives in, and know that she is working toward a new and better future for others. The overall day for Sarah will be stressful, headache-causing, and annoying. But with enough effort and self-determination, she will make it by. Character Backstory: Sarah was born in Idaho in 1988. Her family moved to New York when she was 11. She attended a private school in New York and grew up with a high quality education. She later attended Mount Sinai Medical School and was an intern at the local hospital. When she was 23 she went to see her boyfriend she met over Facebook in Russia. When she arrived, she spent four days there before the invasion began. They were separated in the chaos. His whereabouts are unknown, but Sarah survived in an old apartment which later became the UCH. Later, she met Carson FitzGibbon, a man who had been living there for a long time. He explained to her how he saw the first officer and rebels. Sarah took in the information and stayed with him until people were later assigned apartments. She stayed in apartment A1 for a while until she heard about the new CWU program. She learned about what they do and their purpose. She thought about joining for a while and finally said to herself, "I want to do this." And made her application. Sarah is currently enjoying her stay in City 45. She really likes the layout of the City. Now she is awaiting her applications reviewal.

Carson FitzGibbon's Civil Authority ApplicationOOC Name: cfitz22 IC Character Name: Carson FitzGibbon 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. Carson FitzGibbon had always wanted to join the CCA after witnessing the death of his brother, Nikoli. He wants to help out and be a part of the good the Union does for the city. The big push that made him want to join up was the death of his brother though, nothing was more moving, more motivating than that. He began his training by trying to stay in shape. He lifted cinder blocks that were found lying around trash piles. He is as loyal as he can be to the CCA and respects every officer. Even before the invasion he always wished to do good for the human race. Even after they wiped out most the population he still wanted to be with them, they would have survived if they just didn't fight back. They would of just, been left aside, there on Earth to live another day in a world where pollution was common and crime was thriving. He knew he was wise to make that decision to stay hidden. Now his life is leading up to this moment, the application that will most likely change his future in city 45. He will forever remember all the training he did, all his hard work to get to this point. Carson has worked for a long time to get here. He has, like I have stated, trained his best with what he has, challenged himself physically and mentally by his hard work and determination to do his best and surpass even his highest expectations. His dedication, his sacrifice, and his determination have all led him to the one goal he really has, to reach his dream of being able to do good for everyone. Please make your choice wisely and to the best of your idea of what's right and best for us all. Thank you for your time and careful reading. 2) Please detail your characters traits. (Eg, Pure, Lawful, Trustworthy)Carson FitzGibbon is very trustworthy, he will take many tasks seriously and get them done. He is also quite strong; his ability to run fast also applies because of his strong calf muscles. (He walks on his tip-toes quite often.) But he cannot run as long as others could. 3) Please provide 2 paragraphs about what you are expecting the Combine Civil Authority to be like for you and your character. The Combine Civil Authority will be, at some times, brutal and challenging with obstacles to overcome. But sometimes the life as an officer will be slow and relaxed. When on patrol, it's always going to be relaxing and slow paced. Listening to the sounds of the city, the noise of the occasional train arrival. And the noise of quiet civilians talking amongst themselves. But at times of unrest, when people come out to fight with no reason. The life will be fast paced. Every step you take could be your last. Everything you do takes part in deciding if you live to save the city, or die trying. Sometimes will be filled with frustration and agony. Getting angry at all the citizens who run and jump around while you cannot respond. The uncivil activities! All the unrest building your anger like the Citadel on the first weeks of the Combine arrival! Overall being in the CCA is a bumpy road to salvation. 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. Carson FitzGibbon was born in Fort Worth, Texas. He attended a poor Catholic School. Although the school did not look perfect, the academics were at high standards. He then moved on to Nolan High, and got a scholarship to M.I.T. He moved to Michigan to attend and left his family in Texas. At this time, his adopted older brother, Nikolia, was living in Russia. At age 23 he flew to Moscow to visit his older brother, Nikolia. On his last day there, the Combine took over and he fled the area and got to a nearby bomb shelter built in the 1970's as a result of the Cold War. His retreat was a dangerous one because he had to cross through streets of raging fires and dead police officers and military personnel. He survived on simple canned beans for a few weeks, rationing his food and water. When he emerged, he found the city in ruins. He wandered for a while and then got his first glimpse of the partially built Citadel. It was already huge, towering over the city like a skyscraper. He fled to a nearby apartment complex and stayed there living off another man's food. He stayed there for at least a month, maybe more. He left when the food was running low and he needed to restock. He soon found an abandon Wal-Mart where he stayed for about three months. Later one day he was met by a small group of men wearing torn up military uniforms and helmets. They were holding pistols. One confronted him about how he was starting a resistance, how he was going to fight back. But Carson just ignored all the influence. They left after they had gathered some food from the store. Another month passed until he saw a man walking through the streets with an MP7. His armor was sleek and dark. He was obviously not one of those savage looking rebels. This was the first CCA officer. He was at the rank of 01 because he was one of the first to come to his senses and join their new CCA program. Carson got out of the store and confronted him asking, “What’s going on?” and, “What’s happening?”He explained what had happened and how Wallace Breen surrendered humanity. He sounded rather proud of himself. After years of staying loyal, he finally began to understand what the real good of the Union was, how they saved us from so much evil. The officer led him to an apartment complex where he was to stay. And he did stay, for about one year, watching as so many people began to live in it after getting orders from the new officers. He began to work for them, cleaning and helping out. Then, he witnessed a nightmare that even he could never dream of. He was going about his business, walking through the streets, when a group of men emerged from the alleyway, all armed with weapons. They fired upon the nearby officers. A hail of bullets hit the man about 4 feet away from him. After the rebels were killed, he ran to the injured man. He recognized him as Nikolai. He died that day, he wasn't able to move at all, and he never got any help because of how severe his injuries were... He died in the CWU hospital. This set Carson on his path to the Union. Now, he wants to avenge his brother more than anything in the world. 5) Have you ever had a CCA character here at Catalyst Gaming? If so, explain why it was removed.No. OOC Details1. How long have you played on role-playing servers in general?5 months, max. 2. How long have you played on serious servers?4 months, max. 3. How long have you played on Catalyst Gaming?

I replaced bulbs, painted walls, and picked up trash. In the end we were released to go back to our lives. 8. Do you consider yourself a good listener?Yes, from time to time I tune out.

Yea, except the Mongols seemed to bring stability to trade later on. The Combine just killed everything and ruined lives.

Not the same, similar. And I already adressed this, they are separated by the technology of their times.

The Combine and the Mongol Empire aren't very different... They both conquered cities swiftly and efficiently. And if you go by HL2, both later fell apart by rebelions. But the Combine brought stability to the world. So did the Mongol's Kubilai Khan, though that was only some of Europe and Asia. And they both let the previous occupants live in their countries. Who here thinks that Valve used the Mongol Empire to model the Combine? The only significant difference is that one was existing in 1260 and the other in 2015.

He stayed at MIT for a six years and earned a doctorate. At this time, his adopted older brother, Nikolia, was living in Russia. At age 23 he flew to Moscow to visit his older brother, Nikolia. On his last day there, the Combine took over, he fled the area and got to a nearby bomb shelter build in the 1970's. His retreat was a dangerous one because he had to cross through streets of raging fires and dead police officers and military personel. He survived on simple canned beans for weeks. He left when he was all out of food. When he emerged, he found the city in ruins. He wandered for a while and then got his first glimps of the partially built Citidel. It was already huge, towering over the city like a skyscraper. It also had an odd glow from the top of it, this errie glow seemed like a vortex of some sort. He fled to a nearby apartment complex and stayed there living off another man's food for about a month. He left when the food was running low and he needed to restock. He soon found an abandon Wal-Mart where he stayed for about two months. Later one day he was met by a small group of men wearing tattered uniforms and greenish beanies. They were holding pistols. One confronted him about how he was starting a resistance, how he was going to fight back. But Carson just ignored all the influence, he didn’t want to make a final decision on what side he was on yet. They left after they had gathered some food from the store. Another month passed until he saw a man walking through the streets with an MP7. The first CCA Officer. He was the rank of 01 because he was one of the first to apply. Carson got out of the store and confronted him asking, “What’s going on?” and, “What’s happening?”He explained what had happened and how Wallace Breen surrendered humanity. He sounded rather proud of himself. After years of staying loyal, he finally began to understand what the real good of the Union was, how they saved us from so much evil. The officer lead him to an apartment complex where he was to stay. And he did stay, for about one year. He began to work for them, cleaning and helping out. Then, he witnesses a nightmare, he was going about his buisness, walking through the streets, when a group of men emerged from the alleyway, all armed with weapons. They fired upon the nearby officers. A hail of bullets hit the man about 4 feet away from him. After the rebels were killed, he ran to the injured man. He recognized him as Nikolai. He died that day, he wasn't able to move at all, he never got any help because of how servere his injuries were... He died in the CWU hospital. This set Carson on his path to the Union. Now, he wants to avenge his brother more than anything in the world. 5) Have you ever had a CCA character here at Catalyst Gaming? If so, explain why it was removed.No OOC Details1.

It threw me back and if it wasn't for that radio communications augmentation, I would have been dead. When I was hit it immidiently got word to the Nexus.

Carson FitzGibbon's Civil Authority ApplicationOOC Name: cfitz22 IC Character Name: Carson FitzGibbon 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.Carson FitzGibbon had always wanted to join the CCA after whitnessing the death of his brother, Nikoli. He wants to help and be part of the good the Union do for the city. The big push that made him want to join up was the death of his brother though, nothing was more moving, more motivating than that. He began his training by trying to stay in shape. He lifted cinder blocks that were found lying around trash piles. He also began working his loyalist points up, he reached a total of 8 loyalist points. He is a proud member of the loyalist program. Even before the invasion he always wished to do good for the human race. Even after they wiped out most the population he still wanted to be with them, they would of survived if they just didn't fight back. They would of just, been left aside, there on Earth to live another day! He knew he was wise to make that decision to stay hidden. Now his life is leading up to this moment, the application that will most likely change his future in city 45. He will forever remember all the training he did, all his hard work to get to this point. It's all up to you. Will you be a cold anvil? Crushing a single man's hopes to do the good you do? Or help him onto the metaforic train of salvation, going on the path with the others to live a new life on this planet. A new life, in the CCA. 2) Please detail your characters traits. (Eg, Pure, Lawful, Trustworthy)Carson FitzGibbon is very trustworthy, he will take many tasks seriously and get them done. He is also quite strong, his ability to run fast also applies because of his strong calf muscles. (He walks on his tip-toes a lot.) But he cannot run as long as others could. 3) Please provide 2 paragraphs about what you are expecting the Combine Civil Authority to be like for you and your character.The Combine Civil Authority will be, at some times, brutal and challenging with obstacles to overcome.

Listening to the sounds of the city, the noise of the occational train arrival. And the noise of quiet civilians talking amongst themselves. But at times of unrest, when people come out to fight with no reason. The life will be fast paced. Every step you take could be your last. Every thing you do takes part in deciding if you live to save the city, or die trying. Some times will be filled with frustration and agony. Angering over citizens running and jumping around while you cannot respond. The uncivil activities! All the unrest building your anger like the Citidel on the first weeks of the Combine arrival! Overall being in the CCA is a bumpy road to salvation. 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.Carson FitzGibbon was born in New York City, at age 23 he flew to Moscow to visit his older brother, Nikolia.
