Ah yes facebook, you know what I might as well put my name, address, phone number, bank info and personal life story here on the forums at that rate.

No thanks.

I don't remember it being said that it is a requirement to join the CG Facebook page, this would be for the people who like to do stupid shit and take selfies of themselves (*cough* cow). I don't think anything bad could come of this (aside from drama, but fuck dat shit). It is good exposure for CG and could allow the community to blossom into a bigger clusterfuck then it already is.

Updated the backstory, it should now be atleast 300 words long.

Mark Daffen's Metropolice Force Application

OOC Name: Napalmmonkey

IC Character Name: Mark Daffen

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 has seen the police officers patrol the streets and guard his whole life. Ever since he was a little boy he somthimes dreamed of being one. He sometimes thought about how he would look in the outfit with the shinny boots. Oh how he lacks entertainment in city 18, he only wishes to be one of the brave men and women who protect the citizens.

My character doesn't only want this job to benefit his fellow citizen but to assist his family. As I presume many are poor such as my characters family. This job could bring in an extra few coins to assist in taking care of his family that has helped him always in his time of need.

He wishes to get respect in this world, and he believe this will help greatly, to help him be important in life and to have meaning. He wishes to make his family proud and bring them honor and glory for his accomplishments.

2) Please detail your characters traits. (Eg, Pure, Lawful, Trustworthy)
My chacter is trustworth, loyal, helpfull, honest, cautious, intelegent, logical, devoted, aggressive, and calm. These are but not limited to my characters traits.

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 to be serious and hardcore job. Meaning that every moment is life or death, that every action has repercussions and possible rewards. I think that I will get into a firefight or two while on the force.

I believe I could really assist the citizens of city 18 and also serve and protect my superiors and fellow officers. I will most likely give my life to protect someone no matter who they are. I will fulfill my duty as a CCA and do my best to protect the Universal Union and every one under it.

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 characters name is Mark Daffen, Mark grew up in the United States in Ohio. All his life he had seen law enforcement agents, for he lived in a city filled with crime (kind of like Detroit). Every so often his home would be broken into, he depended on the police to bring his stolen stuff back home and more importantly put the criminal that kept stealing his stuff behind bars. At the age of ten Mark's father was shot by a criminal attempt to break into there house, Mark's father had attempted to fend off the criminal with one of his golf clubs but had failed as a gun has a lot longer range than a blunt object. Lucky his father survived the shot and Mark was scared that he may be next to take a bullet. Mark began to have nightmares about scenarios of criminals shooting him, soon his parents realized his fear of being shot and quickly moved out of the town. They moved to Columbus Ohio about 3 hours away from where he used to live. Soon Mark's nightmares stopped, he soon began to make new friends. His life was finally looking up, he had made the middle school basketball team and was in the best shape of his life. He soon hoped that he would receive a scholarship to go to college. But he would still not have to worry about this for another 6 years, during this time his brother who was 25 had at last passed the requirements to become a patrolman for the Columbus PD. Mark felt even safer knowing that his older brother was out there patrolling the streets.

Lets skip to high school, As soon as Mark came to high school he applied for the basketball team. He made the team and was still hopeing to get a scholarship, he didn't care where to so long as his parents didn't have to pay for it (Mark and his family where a middle class so they would most likely not beable to aford college). But this scholarship never came, Mark graduated high school not knowing what to do with his life. At last he found something that interested him other than sports, he found woodworking. He soon rented out an old garage and bought some wood cutting, trimming, and sanding machines. He began receiving orders for chairs, benches, and even children toys. Mark worked hard for a few years and then realized that he could be making a lot more money. He quickly went to Trumbull Business College, he learned a lot and spent a lot of money doing so. He soon found that his bank ran dry after his first 2 years and so he had to start working a part time job. But at last he graduated, he learned a lot and got a degree in business. He soon planned to turn his business into a giant company with many employes, but that is when the combine came. The seven hour war began, soon his business was ruined before it even started. He soon was moved to city 18, and that bring us up to present day.

7. What�s your most memorable quality RP experience?
My most memorable RP moment would be on Clockwork Military RP, As I played as a soldier we were being attacked. Me and a few other men gathered in the barracks and await the commanding officer. As the door opens the CO stands there and begins to talk. Just as he finishes his sentence a bullet pierces through his chest and he dies, The CCO was no where to be found either and we needed a commander. All of us just being privates I decided I shoud be the one, As I was the only one actually assigned to a platoon, Marauder 2-1 Rifleman Bravo Company was my title. We where brave fighters who specialized in search and destroy missions. I'm not going to lie commanding 30 people at once is very hard, I had to assign people jobs, as algida members ran in and shot at us. Eventually we exhausted their supply of ammo and they ran, we retook the base and every thing went back to normal. And did I get promoted for this? Hell no because the server shut down a few days later. Still pretty memorable and fun experience.
