IC Character Name: John Rueth
1) Please write a minimum of 3 paragraphs OOC'ly detailing why your character wishes to join the Metropolice Force and what lead your character to do so.My character wishes to join the Combine Civil Authority because he believes that his life in City 18 would be better that way. He is sick and tired of living everyday off a short amount of food from the rations and living everyday with no kind of muscular development just skin and bone. It really hits him hard that he is skinny and malnourished because before the Combine took control he was an avid weightlifter and would love to build up his body to show off the girls. He also has many stomach pains from the hunger, and it's really breaking down his morale to even stay alive.
John Rueth was always a power hungry male. Before the Combine took control John was a very confident. He worked in an office building and was slowly crawling himself up the corporate ladder. One of the reasons he wanted to be a boss of a big company is because of the power and responsibility that comes with it. He wants join the Combine Civil Authority because he will have that feeling of being in control again, he really likes that.
Another reason why he wants to join the Combine Civil Authority is because he is extremely bored with his life as a citizen. Spending all the day sitting on a bench maybe or laying in bed is boring him to death. Most citizens are in the city are either somewhat crazy or just plain boring to talk to. He wants some action in his life again, and he thought that his would be a good opportunity.
2) Please detail your characters traits. (Eg, Pure, Lawful, Trustworthy)Confident, Strong-minded, Lawful, athletic mindset (before combine took over earth), Intelligent, Independent, reliable, hard-working.
3) Please provide 2 paragraphs about what you are expecting the Combine Civil Authority to be like for you and your character.I'm expecting the Combine Civil Authority to be a fun experience for me. I believe this because I've been HL2RP roleplaying for 2 years and I've always had fun on the CCA. I just love raiding citizens, beating them with my stunstick, doing training drills with other units. It's honestly a blast. I used to be quite addicted to HL2RP back in the day and I just had a sudden urge to play it again.
I think the Combine Civil Authority will really fit my character because of his powerhungry attitude and wanting to be in control. He is very confident in himself and would fit right in with the other units to follow orders and protect the civility of City 45. He thinks his life would be much better because he can eat filling meals and gain muscle again. He also likes the way the officers look with there neat and clean uniforms and there intimidating gas masks.
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.John Rueth was born in the Chicago area of Illinois. He grew up with two parents, and a brother. He attended highschool and was a outstanding student graduating with honors. His high school years were tough because he was a skinny nerd who played video games on his old Windows PC. He never had a girlfriend, and got quite lonely. After high school he decided that he will go to college in business. While attending college he started to hit the gym a lot to train his body. It boosted his confidence when he started gaining muscle, it made him felt like he ruled the world somehow. With a sudden boost of confidence he was able to get girlfriends and such, which made him happy compared to his high school days. When he got out a fun life of College, he joined a company that specialized in selling cleaning equipment. He was in charge of filling out documents and sales reports from the company. He quickly became very eager to climb up the corporate ladder. He tried his best to get promotions, and he found himself quite high ranking as he became the manager of the sales report section of the company. He lead about 50 men, and people loved his confident trait and get-the-job done attitude. John Rueth lived a good life because he worked hard to set himself up for it. He was a hard-working man.
When the combine attacked, it was devastating for John. He didn't know what to do, so he took cover in the basement of his house with his girlfriend. They cowered in fear as the big explosions rocked the city nearby, luckily for them they lived in the outer suburbs and the big bomb blast did not kill them off. He knew he had to get out of the suburbs, because whoever was attacking was going to get to them sooner or later. Him and his girlfriend packed up as many supplies as they could and left for the farmland up north in Wisconsin. They settled in an abonded farmhouse and waited out the cold nights with canned foods. Weeks later, they ran out of canned foods. They harvested as much as they could from the abandoned farms, but it simply was not enough to feed them. They were starving a couple weeks. One day, John's girlfriend finally died from starvation, he couldn't believe what he was seeing. His life of always being well-fed was coming to an end. He knew he was going to die soon, and he just walked outside the barn. He knew what he had to do, he was going to kill himself to stop the pain. He stood outside the barn for a bit, contemplating his thoughts. Out of nowhere, he heard beeping and it sounded like radio chatter. He looked around for a bit before being hit by a butt of a rifle in the back of the head, he went out cold.
He woke up in a strange place, it looked like a train station. He saw people in blue uniforms, he looked down and saw he was in this blue uniform as well. He thought it was strange, and actually thought he was dead. He was nudged by strange looking soldiers to go into a train. He was relocated to City 45, where he spent a month in misery. He was then moved to a different city.. City 18. Once he entered the city he knew what he wanted to do now, he decided he was sick of living his life in misery and wanted to sign up for the Civil Protection. He went to the Nexus Lobby, and grabbed an application sheet to fill in. This is his chance to live happily again, he thought as he signed his name and CID down on the application.

It was quite a fun experience because we took her to a warehouse in the outskirts of the city. Out of nowhere the door was opened, and a flash grenade was thrown in.
