IC Character Name: Johann Steiner

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.

Johann Steiner was born into a military family in Germany.  His father was a soldier and HIS father was a soldier.  This cycle goes all the way back to th 1700's.  Johann was taught to never break tradition and to always respect authority.  Johann never diobeyed his parents and would always help enforce the rules to his unnaturally unruly siblings.  When Johann was in school, he enrolled in the local Reserve Officer Training Corps in hopes of future service.

At the time of the Resonance Cascade, Steiner was already undergoing training at the local Police Academy so he can enter the Army a rank or two higher.  He was never accepted into the Army, nor did he ever complete training, due to the abundance of better candidates already from the military who would constantly take his spot on the force.  He decided to continue training for a while in hopes that a spot would finally open up for him.  Just before the 7-Hour War (about 2 years, to be precise), Johann's father, Manfred Steiner, died of Cancer.  This caused Johann to quit his job as a Police Officer and work at his mother's small general store.

During the war, Johann stayed clear of as much Combine as he could.  When Civil Protection was formed, Johann could not decide whether or not he wanted to continue police work.  He always respected the new police force, even when he was treated badly himself.  Now, Johann has put all of his troubles behind him and is ready to make all of the necessary sacrifices to help his new authority, community, and mankind as a whole; whatever the cost.



2) Please detail your characters traits. (Eg, Pure, Lawful, Trustworthy)

-Honest
-Loyal
-Respectful of authority
-Obeys orders
-Sometimes forgets small things, but not too often
-Committed to whatever he does
-Courageous
-Honorable

3) Please provide 2 paragraphs about what you are expecting the Combine Civil Authority to be like for you and your character?

Johann expects the CCA would be a redemption to all of his past wrongs and a way to serve others, knowing full well the prices he must pay in the form of beatings, harassment, etc. to keep order and help mankind.  He wants to keep tradition, up until he dies and is the final generation of his famliy.  He also wants to help support his mother, who lives in City 17 and is not making enough of a living to even eat without rations.

I, myself, would like to see what it looks like from the other side.  Having played through Half Life 2, Episode 1, and Episode 2, I wondered what it was like to view the Resistance as a main antagonist, instead of the other way around.  I also like the look of the Combine, especially Synths and Elites.

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.

Johann Steiner was born in Germany about 35 years ago.  He was born to Manfred Steiner, his father, and Katja Hoppe, his mother.  He lived in Berlin for about 3 years before moving to Hamburg.  Johann was raised to be in armed service almost from birth.  His mother worked at a local general store, which soon after Johann's brother, Andreas Steiner, was born, she bought for herself.  Johann's sister, Gizala Steiner, is an odd one, no matter how her parents raised her, she was defiant.  Johann and Gizala grew very distant asn Johann became lawful and Gizala became chaotic.  Andreas was respectful of authority, but never had any interest in continuing his family's tradition of joining the armed forces.

Before the 7-Hour War, Johann trained to become as great a soldier as he could while in and out of school.  He generally ignored many distractions during training such as television, sports, hunger, and even his girlfriend.  Johann applied for police training because he was never really able to get into the military.  By the time the portal storms started hitting Hamburg, Johann was still in training and could not help defend the city as much as he wished.  Just before the war began (about 2 years), Manfred, his father, died of lung Cancer due to smoking.  This was one of many personal reasons that Johann decided to quit his police and military training and help his mother at the general store.  When the war finally hit, Johann was very respectful of his new superiors.  He tried to get as much on their good side as possible so as not to be hunted down and killed or treated as bad as others by following the law.

After the war, Johann was still a bit distressed over many personal issues, including his father.  This conflicted with his desire to fulfill tradition and join the armed forces.  Eventually, his friends encouraging him, Johann found his willingness to proceed with this, realizing that dwelling on his past does not help people around him.  Johann finally gathered enough courage to pay the price of order and security by attempting to join Civil Protection.

OOC Name: Reager [Sub-Zero occasionally]

IC Character Name: Aisha Owens

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.
Aisha thought that loyalists were the only people apt to be guaranteed a place within the CCA, and she had never favored the CCA herself. Her tastes weren't within the resistance too much either. The reason for this concerned her ideas of the CCA. So for the beginning of her life in the city she had stayed a citizen and didn't favor toward either faction.

Pondering, while hanging lonesome in her empty apartment, she forced herself to think of reasons to join the CCA considering she wasn't too much for the resistance. She felt that she belonged somewhere other than in the neutral zone, she wanted to isolate herself from the dull and repetitive life of a citizen. It felt like she did the same exact thing everyday; sleep, work, loiter near a shop, then sleep for a few hours. A change was indeed needed.

The only reason she felt herself obligated to join the CCA instead of the resistance was because of sheer facts such as: the Universal Union had won the war and enslaved the entire planet in 7 hours, as well as having a large army and having more resources. This convinced her that she'd have no chance staying alive if she were to immerse herself in the rebel life. The other reason she felt up to joining the CCA was because it would provide a better life style, in her sense. Being given meals that wouldn't have a foul and undernourished taste, and whenever a CP walked by she could always just imagine herself within one of those uniforms; these were other reasons she felt like applying. She also, but didn't really feel strong about it, wanted to insure the safety of other citizens. She doesn't really care much about others as she should, but will use it as her excuse.

2) Please detail your characters traits. (Eg, Pure, Lawful, Trustworthy)
Obedience is a key trait she has, able to follow orders (as long as they stay within a logical and reasonable zone)
Her thoughts are slightly discursive, barely does this correspond with her speech,though sometimes it may interfere with her duties, but not often.
She has common sense, knowing what to do to avoid trouble or pissing off a higher command. This helps her know when to keep her mouth closed or to isolate herself from another situation/argument that isn't her own.

3) Please provide 2 paragraphs about what you are expecting the Combine Civil Authority to be like for you and your character?
I have never had a character in the CCA so I expect it to give me a different/new aspect of RP as well as more knowledge on the CCA. This could help expand some of my role playing into other depths I haven't explored before, such as actually falling into ranks and having to obey commanders. So I guarantee that it'd be a fun and learning experience as well as something that may progress my RPing capabilities.

I expect this opportunity to give my character a new insight on the CCA, which in return would shift her thoughts accordingly and would make the CCA gain her trust. My character would expect the experience to be (oddly) fun and very rewarding, something that could also expand her abilities and skills. She also expects it to keep her in-tune and help her focus on what is currently going on, to help her keep her mind off other things.

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.
1991-
   Aisha Owens was born August 20, 1991 in San Antonio, Texas. Her mother was rushed toward the San Antonio Community Hospital to give birth to Aisha early in the day. She was born into a Hispanic heritage, which she ended up living a quite decent life as her family was above the middle class.
   She was home schooled at an affordable price and lived a quiet life for a small part of her youth. Because of the quiet and dull scenario surrounding her, she began being involved in gang-related activities. She never went as far as to start gun shootings or even drink an alcoholic beverage at the least. She mostly hanged with a small chunk of the gang and did minor public offenses such as stealing or pickpocketing. Most of her actions were very unnecessary considering her family was above any financial problems. The saddest part was that she was only twelve and thirteen when she was in the gang.

2004-2009
   Most of her education was wasted as she planned on joining the military without a doubt when she grew older. Most of her expectations shifted for the future when the portal storms had arisen in 2004 and she was forced behind the walls of a protected city. Even though life was expected to be protected and safe, she was kept indoors and lived, once again, a dull and quiet life. She never had saw a face of her small gang again.
   Behind the bars of the city, and being eighteen now, she wanted to help out with the protection of the city. Before she even got the chance though, more portal storms opened up and her life in the protected city was changed.

Seven Hour War
   With the walls being destroyed and the Universal Union taking over the world, she was forced to abandon her home with her family into a community shelter. Nearly three hours had passed before the shelter had been popped open and the odd, never seen before units rushed in. Many were murdered, anyone with defects or those who were too old, too young. Aisha was happy her prayers were answered that she had been eighteen, old enough to not pass off as a kid to be either killed or sent off to a  cremator factory. Was it better she had not died though?

2009-2016
   Life happened to be even more boring than before. Life was cruel at the start of the new city life. She was soon malnourished and had worked long hours at the labor camp. Not often, but sometimes she'd be transferred to different cities and she'd have to get use to the different cultural surroundings and faces. She was able to make a friend in one city who was of the CWU, the man provided her with part of his more nourishing meals. This helped re-boost her strength a bit and help her out while at the labor camp.
   Sadly she was reassigned to a new city and once again started out her life as before. Upon entering City 18 she figured to try something new with her life, something that could help put her in a better situation. Applying to be a CP.

7. What’s your most memorable quality RP experience?
TnB, a while back when my character was just introduced to the out lands there was a COTA Raid. Whiteforest was the location and the place was calm and quiet, birds canopying the nearby trees. Everyone was alerted and rushed into an underground basement. The sounds of hunters echoed through the forest and had created a stale and quiet moment between the hiding rebels. It seemed like an hour passed as the hunters roamed the seemingly empty town. Suddenly violent screams were heard as some (supposedly uninformed) rebels were being introduced to the hunters in a grotesque way, being torn apart and shot up. More time had pass and much passive RP was created as the rebels whispered among themselves. This experience was memorable for the seriousness, fun, and passive RP introduced and conducted.

8. Do you consider yourself a good listener?
Yes, I do consider myself a good listener.

OOC Name: [GM] I Eat Chich

IC Character Name: Mike Noir

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.

Before the 7 Hour War, Noir worked for a manufacturing company that produced calculator parts, which had its assets stripped and production moved abroad to China. From that moment, Noir knew what true hunger felt like. He could not feed his three children on welfare and he lost his youngest child to malnutrition as the recession took a deeper hold on his community and the welfare he was promised could not even provide basic sustenance to the millions of people left destitute by the second Great Depression.

When the Combine arrived, the hunger which he thought had been true before was nothing compared to what he felt now. Determined to survive, Noir stole from fellow citizens as his community resisted the occupation and therefore rations were withheld. After a month of Combine occupation, Noir weighed 3/4's of what he weighed before the occupation. Noir was determined to secure more food for himself, even if this meant working against the community that once supported him.

Noir doesn't particularly feel a love for the Combine, and he feels that their occupation has made matters worse. He's treated like a slave, starved, beaten and humiliated and the only way he can escape this suffering is by joining the CCA. Noir marched into the application office determined to become a recruit and work his way up through the ranks, in turn receiving a weapon to defend himself against people who also felt the need to survive by stealing from others, and receiving enough rations so he would not lay awake for many hours, his insomnia induced by the great hunger he felt constantly.


2) Please detail your characters traits. (Eg, Pure, Lawful, Trustworthy)

- Determined/Perseverance
- Unmerciful
- Cruel
- Loyalty to the most powerful organization present
- Uncompassionate
-Severely malnourished

3) Please provide 2 paragraphs about what you are expecting the Combine Civil Authority to be like for you and your character?

OOC'ly

I expect to get pushed around as a recruit which is what should happen in HL2RP. I don't expect to be given much forgiveness for any mistake I make so I won't make any mistakes. I've been in the CCA before on Kuromeku's community (the name has slipped my mind) so I know that I've gotta take orders from my superiors. I'm hoping that I'll get involved with the Inquisitor side of the Combine, the guys who extract information from citizens; before you ask, I'm not a sadist, I feel that my roleplay is of a very high quality and this position offers a very good method of showing my skills.

IC'ly

Noir knows that he's going to have to accept being not much better off than the common citizen for a while. He won't be recieving a fantastic amount of rations, so he will not be in prime physical condition, so he must not be too lenient and unperceptive to anti-citizens as they only have a slight disadvantage in physical build. Noir needs to be prepared to hand out cruel and unfair punishments if his superiors ask as they can have him terminated whenever they wish; they're not his friends, he knows that, so he has to be just as afraid of them as he is of the rebels.

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.

When Noir first got fired, he was shocked. He knew that life was going to be difficult once he had no source of income, but the welfare state could keep him and his children alive at the very least. The company he worked for, Casio Calculators, had sold off the property and the first Mike knew of his unemployment was when he approached the building at 9am on a Monday morning and was faced with a 'CONDEMNED' sign.
Mike went home and informed his children that he didn't have a job anymore, and that for the moment they couldn't buy new clothes or go on holiday during the summer.

Mike started receiving his welfare cheque a week after he lost his job. At first, the welfare allowed him to live relatively comfortably, whilst obvious making cutbacks, but nothing so major that it affected his children's lives.
Then, one morning, Mike was watching the television when the news reporter's coverage of the troubles in Burkhina Fasou was cut short; the camera switched over to the Financial sector of CNN. On the screen, there was a projection of a plummeting graph indicating that the FTSE 100 and many other major stock markets were crashing. The dollar was worth virtually nothing, and his savings may have just as well been burnt. Mike lost everything in a matter of hours.

The next winter was extremely tough. The welfare fund was slowly drying up as more people became unemployed and it had to be spread even further, and eventually he couldn't afford the bacon he usually cooked for his family every morning. Mike cancelled his heating payments in order to be able to buy himself and his family two meals a day, and they mainly consisted of bread. His youngest child, Dave, fell ill with pneumonia as his house was so frighteningly cold. Dave died within two weeks of falling ill, and Mike never recovered.

During the summer, there were shimmering blue lights, called Portal Storms, that deposited frightening monsters around the town. 
"Am I going mad? Has Dave's death really affected me that much?" Mike asked himself.
But he knew he had not been driven insane; half of his town had moved into Cleveland after fleeing from the monsters that Mike frequently saw roaming the fields. Mike refused to leave and so did many of the other people in the town; they gathered arms and fought off many of the monsters. They did not fight as effectively as they could have since many were so hungry that they could not even hold a gun without shaking, but they held off the monsters for many weeks.

Then the Combine invaded; nobody could believe it. The news arrived in the morning that gunships from some unknown country, which Mike now knows were not even from any country, were flying across America and slaughtering the armed infantry that were fighting so desperately to defend the country. The war felt like it had raged for years due to the intensity of the fighting, but in reality the UN declared that their forces were surrendering to the Combine after a mere 7 hours.

Mike was arrested by the Combine for simply being outside of the city and was deported to City 17 where he now resides. He was forced to leave his children behind when he was arrested and Mike remains convinced that they have been deported to some other city. At first in City 17, many of the citizens rebelled, refusing to believe that Earth had simply given up. Mike refused to join in as he had heard the blood curdling screams that penetrated the walls behind where so many of the rebels were tortured.
As a result of the resistance, many rations were withheld and Mike feared he would died from starvation. They recieved barely 1000 calories per day and were made to work backbreaking hours for their new 'benefactors.'
 Mike realized he had to join the Combine as soon as possible as he grew frightened when he could see hair falling from his head due to the starvation.

7. What’s your most memorable quality RP experience? I was detained by the Combine on a HL2RP server.

Jeff Johnson

It was a normal day in city 45 Jeff Johnson had the order to clean the streets. After getting his rations Jeff talked to some guys he met when cleaning the streets. After his little chat with his fellow citizens.
He has gone back to his apartment for a nap. But when he was about to close his eyes he heard his door open, immediately Jeff stood up and tried to hide but he was to late a man aimed a gun at his head and said: “On the wall NOW!” he immediately did what the man asked. “Give me all your tokens and possessions or I will blow your brains out” the man said Jeff gave all of his tokens and possessions. But when he turned around he saw 2 other guys one with a SMG and one with a pistol. Then the man who threatened  Jeff said: “Turn around, guys look for anything valuable.” After some time The man came back and said: “on your knees” Jeff did so. "make it quick" Jeff said. But when the man was going to fire, the door of Jeff’s apartment fell and 3 officers stormed in. They shot the other two raiders but when they were going to shoot the third, he quickly grabbed Jeff and said: “Don’t fire or he will die!” the leading officer did not doubt immediately and shot the third raider.
When the other officers removed the body’s the leading officer said: “Citizen, stand up.” Jeff did so and said: “Ok, officer.” Then the officer asked: “Are you alright citizen?” Jeff answered “Yes, officer” The officer said: “here are your belongings” and gave Jeff’s stuff back. Jeff thanked the officer and had a sit. After a while Jeff stood up to go back outside but when he left his apartment he heard screaming coming out of the apartment next to him. It was Mia his neighbour he turned on his requesting device and called officers to help. “Is this a raid party?” Jeff thought. Then he heard a gunshot and screams. It was Mia, immediately Jeff stormed in and overpowered the raider. He took his gun and shot the raider. Then the raider's companion tried to shoot Jeff but he immediately took cover behind he cough. Then… he saw Mia lying there, dead. Jeff got angry , got out of cover and shot the man when he was reloading. After 2 minutes officers came in. “Hands up! Get on the wall!" The officer said. Jeff did what the officer said. while going out of the apartment Jeff looked at his neighbor Mia for the last time. After that he followed the squad to the nexus. After telling his story his facts where confirmed by the leading officer who saved Jeff the first time.

2 days later Jeff still thought: "I need to do something about this! I can't just sit here and do nothing while get mugged all around the city."

When Jeff came outside he saw an application for CCA and knew what to do.

-he likes sporting and is fysicaly very strong

3) Please provide 2 paragraphs about what you are expecting the Combine Civil Authority to be like for you and your character?
I would like my character to join the CCA because I can learn from it (I have already been CCA in 2 other HL2RP servers.)
And I really want to bring order because when people think like: "wow in this server, I can do what I want, I won't be punished/arrested" people will automatically break the rules. And I hate minges/lolrebels and they need to know that they are NOT the boss here the CCA is and if they think they are then we/I will teach them a lesson. I also expect it to be serious and hard work. I would really like the patrolling the streets and possibly defending the entrance to C6 so that we would not get a possible rebel attack.
It will also really enrich my character because he wants to help the CCA stop the raids that killed his friend (Mia) so that there will be no more deaths caused by raiders He will also try to help inform officers where to search because he is a important citizen and knows where raiders/rebels might hide because he had heard story’s of their hiding places by fellow citizens. He also thinks that if the CCA do their jobs good and would have enough recruits that the Combine/CCA might bring peace to the world. He also knows what he is allowed to do and not to do on his rank/in general.


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.

Trinity Hospital, Evocity, Oregon, U.S.A.
May 23rd, 1984
 
Jeff was born to very rich parents. His dad had companies all over the world which made him very rich (he was worth 9 million dollars) . Jeff's mom took care of him mostly.
 
At 8 years old Jeff's family moved to evocity for his dad's work. His dad promised Jeff he could go to the best school in the evocity area. Jeff was happy because he really liked to study, he was popular in school because he was smart, played the guitar and had rich parents, then jeff graduated from school, he was the 2nd best student in school. His dad was so proud of him and gave him his very first car a dodge charger.
Because he had to visit his dad when he had gone to New York. Then he went to collage (Harvard) but it was a really though school but Jeff managed to survive his first year. Then he took drugs and his grades dropped. But then his girlfriend came to know and talked him out of it. Then Jeff realized that he had to proof himself he learned better then ever.  After that, he lived a good life, He studied hard and was about to graduate. But when Jeff had dinner with his mom and dad for the first time in years. When they came out of the restaurant an ex-college who had mental problems of Jeff's father, jumped in front of them and shot his fathers bodyguard while he tried to take his gun then he shot Jeff's father in the head and tried to kill his mother because his gun blocked, Jeff tried to help his mother but got pushed on the ground, then Jeff saw the bodyguards gun took it and shot the murderer. After that Jeff and his mom got to a local PS (police station) they explained everything and Jeff could go on with his life, but without his dad.
Jeff was at his  biology class when he looked out of the window and saw portals coming out of the sky everyone in the school was at the courtyard they saw something coming out of the portal some kind of plane. But then it started to shoot everyone was scared when Jeff though of something his parents he ran to his car and drove to his mother. On his way there he saw chaos everywhere, crashed cars, planes falling out of the sky, cops trying to prevail over these aliens and getting killed in many horrible ways. Jeff couldn’t take in anymore. He drove as fast as he could.
When he finally  arrived at his mom’s  house it was empty. He kept searching for someone When suddenly another portal came out of the air. When he came back outside he saw some people getting in a shelter. Jeff asked if he could get in to the owners were friendly and let Jeff in. after an hour or so Jeff and the other family heard footsteps they kept themselves quiet. When the sound was gone they were relieved but not for long, right after they wanted to make an escape plan the shelter door opened and some human-like things pulled Jeff and the family out of the shelter. Jeff tried to resist, he took a plank and hits the alien. When he was about to hit the downed alien, his companion took his gun and said, drop it. Jeff dropped the plank and suddenly  someone pulled a sac over Jeff’s head. The last thing he heard of the family was the daughter of the man and wife getting shot.  After a long ride in some kind of APC Jeff arrived at a city where other people were they all weared the same Jeansy clothes and there also were a lot of human-like things like the ones who kidnapped Jeff then, Jeff saw a man calling himself “the city administrator” explaining that  Jeff was in city 45 and that the “things” that kidnapped Jeff where called combine and that these were the CCA also known as the combine civil authority. Jeff knew that this City 45 was the place he had to stay in for the rest of his live so he could better make the best of it.

OOC Name: Super_Killer6501

IC Character Name: Carl Samson

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.

All of Carls life since he was a little child he had wanted to join the military and fight for his country. His Dad and Mom did it, There parents before them, and there parents before them, to a long history of military relatives. When the portal storms arived Carl had just turned 18. He was ready to join the military and fend off against the alien invaders.

Sadly his Mother and Fath did not feel the same and forbid him to join. They told him to keep himself and his sister safe in the cities while they went to work as Soldiers. Carl Obeyed his parents and kept himself and his sister safe. Sadly, near the end of the portal storms his parents were killed from an antlion assault on there camp. Carl being wildly upset ran out of the house leaving his sisters and all his belongings.

Then the seven hour war started and Carl was in the crossfire. By the end of the war Carl frightened, angry, and lonely saw a human face on a huge screen. His name was Wallace Breen and he explained the Combine were here to help us, and sadly Carl believed him. Carl blamed the military of what happened to his parents and trusted the combine. He thought that if he joined the Combine he could live his dream as a military occupant and also avenge his familys death by driving out the antlions and other mindless alien creatures. He would serve the Combine who to a lost, confused, teenager seemed like the best choice!


2) Please detail your characters traits. (Eg, Pure, Lawful, Trustworthy)

He is very lawful to the Combine. Anything the Combine say is right is right to him because it means it will only get him closer to living his dream as a soldier or law enforcement. Yet he still has a soft side for civilians not armed for not being involved in the human military he considers evil.

3) Please provide 2 paragraphs about what you are expecting the Combine Civil Authority to be like for you and your character?

OOC'ly

I expect it to be hard but yet rewarding knowing that I am helping keep the peace. I expect to follow orders and to do as I am told no matter my personal opionion. I will be pushed around a reqruit but also learn on the job and perhaps soon move up the ranking system. I know not to use weapons to abuse anything and will roleplay all matters of law enforcement neccesary.

I want a real roleplay experience. I want to actually feel like im a comnine in a Half-life world. I have always been so fascinated by the combine when I started playin Half-life 2 and would love the oppertunity to roleplay one.

IC'ly

Carl is glad to be part of the combine. His young mind has almost got him brainwashed to thinking most humans are evil. He feels closer to the combine than any human being including his sister who he doesnt even know is alive or not. He knows that sometimes he will have to give citizens cruel and unfair punishment but as long as the combine demand it he will obey.

Carl knows it will be hard to live up to the expectations of being a combine. But now he has something new to make proud. He will always clean his equipment and make sure to follow every proper rule.

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.

When Carl was young his parents were always gone. They were either on duty, at base, or doing things together. Some times they only spent a mere 10 hours a week with Carl and his sister. Although Carl didn't have much contact with his parents, he always tried to make them proud. He got straight A's at school, but the response was only a pat on the head. He would clean the house, but they barley ever noticed. Then Carl realized the true thing that Would make his parents proud would be to join the military.

Soon Carl was busy working out every day. He watched old war movies, studied tactics, lifted weights, and ran track, He was determined to be the best soldier he could be and make his parents proud of him. All of this sucked up his life. He knew nothing more but war and military. His grades suffered, he dropped out of school, the house got dirty, he didnt make friends, and he ignored his sister. Yet none of this got his parents attention.

When the portals arrived he was old enough to join the military. When he was ready to apply his parents forbid him and this crushed him inside. His whole life he had worked for this one moment to make them proud and still they wouldn't let him join. He sat at home and basically was a zombie(dead inside). He only hoped that the portal storm would end and they would come home and stay. He only hoped to see his parents again and hug them and say he only wanted to make them proud. But it was all too late.

When he learned of his parents death he left his house and all his stuff, including his sister. He lived his life hiding and running, confused, upset, and angry. When the 7 hour war arrived he was caught outside in between the war running for his life. Many times almost getting killed. When the war ended Carl was inside one of the main cities and saw a huge screen with a man on it. The man was Wallace Breen and he told the people that the combi were here to help. Carl belived him. He thought that his parents death were the militarys fault and if he was going to avenge his parents he would join the combine to do it.

Most human soon seemed evil to him except for the ones who were completly defenseless. He was more combine than human and he knew he had to live his dream now through the combine. His life now was to only serve the combine because war and enforcement was all he knew. If he would of met the resistance first he might of been a different person, but now he has been brainwashed into loving the combine.

OOC Name: Rainbow Dash

IC Character Name: Amber Rose

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 has always been loyal to the union. Ever since they first arrived on Earth. Her family all became rebels and she couldn't handle that. She knew they were going to end up dead so she decided that the Civil Protection was her family and devoted her life to it.
   She eventually gets raped and it only pushs her closer to the UCA. So she ends up snitching on her own family because she knew it was the right thing to do. Everything in her life seemed to be going good. Her obsession with drinking breen's water soon made her forget her family and everything
other than serving the union.
   Eventually one of her friends gets killed by the resistance and she can't take it anymore. She vows to one day join the UCA and serve the union and protect all the innocent citizens. She aspires to become a high ranking unit.  One day she hopes to help get rid of the remaining resistance and make what she thinks is a "Perfect World" free of trouble.



2) Please detail your characters traits. (Eg, Pure, Lawful, Trustworthy)
Loyal,Depressed,Honest,Brave

3) Please provide 2 paragraphs about what you are expecting the Combine Civil Authority to be like for you and your character?
   For me I am expecting it to be a good fun way to roleplay on the server. As a UCA I want to roleplay to the best of my ability as a UCA. I also want to serve the union and have fun. but I also want to help make the server better for others by reducing minges and trying to teach them how to roleplay.  If that doesn't work I will at least handle them the best I can so they are not a distraction/mess with other roleplayers.
   For my character it is a way for her to serve the union because they have done so much for her she thinks she needs to start giving instead of just taking. She doesn't want anyone to have to deal with the things she has had to deal with. She wants to help keep the streets clean and make the world a better place for everyone. She also want's to be able to assist any wounded or person in need of help in any way she possibly can.

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 was the youngest born into a rather large family with 4 other siblings. Two of her siblings were girls the others were boys. Ever since she could remember she did everything in her power to keep them all out of trouble. Eventually when the union came she immediatly fell in love with them but her family on the otherhand all hated them. They all eventually got moved into city 45. Amber always stayed as close as she could with the combine but her family decided they would rather go into S6 and fight the combine's powers. One day she was upset and needed to visit her family,
because after all even if they were resistance it was her family. So she decided to go into S6.
   While there she asked around and tried to find them but instead she found a group of black men who had raped her. Upset and distraught she looked harder and harder for her family. With no luck she went to a bar and asked if anyone knew where they were. She was told where they stayed and went to the apartment room they stayed at. She was hoping the reunion would be amazing, but she was wrong. They all hated her and told her to get out and that she was a disgrace to her family for loving the combine.
    So she left, alone and sad she decided to do what she did best. She went to the combine and told them that her family lives in S6 and lied and said they came to the city to visit her telling them their exact location she waited to hear from the UCA again. One day she was outside drinking breens water and she saw her family being brought into the nexus. For one of the first times in her life she felt joy and started reporting everything she say from that point on.

OOC Name:
Heineken

IC Character Name:
Gerard Heineken

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 was a big bad boy first, he almost never left the slums and tried to resist as much as possible.
He was dealing contrabant items like booze and radio's. He was also spreading propoganda about the CCA and always lay traps at the metro station.
After a while there was this big plan with some resistance members. They wanted to mug some Units that were in the metro station.
They all climbed on this empty wagon waiting for the perfect time to jump them, but when it happened, it all failed. They all jumped down at
the same time, but what they did NOT notice was the two oter units that were at the entrance. After they jumped down the units called for backup
the two units started rushing fron the entrance. The first thing they did was shoot, Gerard got hit in his left leg and Hasan got hit in the head, the third member George ran away while Heineken was calling for help, but George didn't even look back. Gerard struggled a lot while trying to get on his feet and hide in the back of the empty wagon.
The units first called for medical backup for the injured units that were getting jumped. And after that, they ran after George to catch him.
After that incident, Gerard realized how dangerous and unloyal the resistance was. He never got caught and.or identified. He's currently scavenging the city for contrabant
to turn in for loyalist points. He is completely living off of rations of the moment and changed his path of life.


2) Please detail your characters traits. (Eg, Pure, Lawful, Trustworthy)
He is currently a loyalist, he scavenges the city to find as much as contrabant as possible to turn it in for Loyalist Points.


3) Please provide 2 paragraphs about what you are expecting the Combine Civil Authority to be like for you and your character?
He expects to not be fucked over like in the incident that happened at the metro station. He thinks that everyone in the CCA tries to help eachother AND the city. Since he has turned his back totally to the Resistance, all he tries is to help the citizens. Also, he wants to use the CCA rank to get revenge on the resistance. That incident above was one of the incidents of the dozens. It happened to him, a lot! He also expects to have a better life, he is sick of the default routine of all the citizens! Wake up, get ration, sit in appartement, get another ration and sleep. This repeats over and over every single day, and now he is sick of this! He expects more respect! More domination! And more power!

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.
Gerard Heineken's life is a total blackout, well not totally, but he can't remember anything from his life before city 45. Gerard was a bad boy since City 45, he was a though guy with no mercy. He was also in the resistance. He was a very sneaky person, and also dealing contrabant to citizens, like safe food and water. He also spreaded propoganda constantly. His life had a good cycle, he had more rations then other people and could get his hands on anything he wished. But then that day happens, the day when you get relocated to anoyher city.

The first thing he had to do after he got off the train was simply apply'ing. Even though he never got cought with anti-civil behavious he was a bit shaky in the line. One of the units noticed that and pulled him out of the line and made him apply his full name and CID. He was looking around for a exit, but unfortunately he couldn't escape. He told the unit his name and CID, after that he got patted down. He was still a bit shaky, untill the unit said "Move along!", with a loud voice.

After he got out, he did what everyone did, get a appartment room in the CCH. Almost all of the rooms were full, except room 4B. He claimed the room and went inside, the first thing that went trough his mind was "Do I have to stay in this shithole?". He just went to bed and slept. The next day his back kind of hurt cause of the hard bed. After he washed his face and put his new clothing on, he went to the city to look if there was some kind of passage to the slums.

After a while, he found it but it was restricted. But suddently this retarded citizen was causing lots of trouble at the Ration Distribution Center, and the units at the checkpoint ran there to get a hold of the situation, he took the chance and went trough the checkpoint, he saw this Metro Station and went inside of it. After he got inside he got jumped by a couple of citizens, he was getting beaten up and robbed. But suddently one fo the citizens fell down with blood coming out of his head. He thought it were some units, but it wasn't. It was George, someone from the Resistance he knew from C45. He took out the other two with something looking like a brick.

When he was done with the citizens, he helped Gerard up, laughed and said "What the hell are you doing here!". Gerard explained that he got re-located and George told him to come with him. He followed George to the XCCR and he explained everything to Gerard that he also got relocated and he is picking up his business of what he did back in C45. After he told him the complete story, he asked Gerard if he wanted to join him again with trading contrabant items in the slums, Gerard agreed and everything went like in C45, but then with different people.

After a while they decided to get some firearms by mugging a Unit at the metro station. (( I would really want to retype this part buy it's already explained in question number 1 ))


Now he completely changed his path, he is ahonest citizen, trying to get as much as Loyalist Points as possible. He always scavenges the city for contrabant to get extra rations and buy stuff for his appartement, like toilet paper. He is currently trying to get the Loyalist Armband to show off to the other citizens. Every time he see's something anti-civil, even if it's something minor, his finger automatically presses the button on the request device. He reports almost every single anti-civil behaviour to the Combine Civil Authority and keeps them posted with all the updated.

He's now trying to enjoy his life, he has more rations then all the other citizens since he is very good withs scavenging.

OOC Name:
- highvoltage56
IC Character Name:
- James Arther Johnson
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.
   
        James had been hiding for months before being found and thrown into a city. In the city he found a room in the union civil housing, it had a decent view, the plumbing sometimes works and the bed wasn’t completely full of bugs. After awhile James was able to scrounge up enough tokens to open a shop. For a short while, James felt good about where he was. But that wouldn’t last.

   He’d been hearing about rebel activity in the city for awhile but he didn’t believe it. That is, until he found the bolts. James had been wandering through the city and stumbled on a box of bolts for a crossbow. What scared him most though, Is that they appeared to be intended for use. Immediately James was on his request device calling for help. A unit arrived faster than he expected. The apex unit shoved him against a cold brick wall to search him, but James didn’t care. He had helped for the greater good and at that moment, he knew what he must do.

   He sat in his house thinking, not emerging until almost days later. Immediately James started walking, his destination: the Combine Civil Authority recruitment office. When he arrived he sat down, the clock on the wall matching his heartbeat as he waited in fear for the office door to open. When he was called in, he was sat down with an application and a black pen. With his hand shaking, James filled out the application as fast as he could, making sure to read back over his writing. His finished application was picked up and carried away, James was left to sit and wonder: Would he be accepted into the ranks of the CCA or would he be tossed to the street like garbage? Forgotten like so many before him. In the end, who will make the choice? And what will it be?

2) Please detail your characters traits. (Eg, Pure, Lawful, Trustworthy)
- loyal, inventive, Lawful.
3) Please provide 2 paragraphs about what you are expecting the Combine Civil Authority to be like for you and your character?

   For me, The CCA will be a great RP experience. I used to be a CCA officer in an old HL2rp server, but the server was dyeing and almost no players were active. I mostly hope to become a member of the GEAR division. I look forward to RP building objects and sometimes controlling a scanner. My favorite part of the CCA will most likely be the militaristic feel, and the pure depth of the role-play.

   For my character, I think it will be an interesting trip if not a completely terrifying one. In his eyes he’s walking straight up to the biggest military force in the universe and asking to join it. He will be afraid, but happy that he is finally doing something with his life. James is a quiet individual so I think it will take some time before he starts mingling with his co-workers. All I know is I won’t be the only one looking forward to being a CCA officer.

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.

   He glanced away from the newspaper towards his night stand. Tired of reading the old newspapers, he sat and thought. The news had made it abundantly clear: Humanity had lost and “They” had won. He thought back to that faithful day. The day that the war took place. He had sat cowering in fear, but then again… what else could he have done? The world was dead and everyone knew it.

   From that day on it was a constant battle for survival. He had heard what was happening, the killing, the slavery, and the “cities” popping up around the world. His only choice was to hide, so that is what he did. The house he lived in had been boarded up so that no light could escape and alert any onlookers. He scavenged for food during the night and set traps to catch any unwary animal that may pass by. Life was hard but he managed to scrape by just barely. After all, when the day was done he was still alive and that’s all that mattered… right?

   Returning from his deep thought to reality, he stood up from his old cracked leather couch and walked towards his bed. Sitting down and flicking on the old flashlight he had saved, He picked up his journal. The light from the flashlight shined on the book and illuminated his face. The page he turned to was his project for an award: A biography.  A single tear rolled down his cheek as he read through his life.

   The year was 1989, on that day I was born. My parents: Marissa and Calvin Johnson couldn't be any happier.  Their new baby boy was as healthy as could be. After all the commotion they finally settled on a name. My name would be James, James Arthur Johnson.  My childhood was normal. I had a stable household, adequate grades and even a few crushes here and there. One of my fondest memories is when I was about 10, my brother Don was playing a prank on his old friend Jaden.  The prank in question was to throw a spoiled egg into Jaden’s mailbox.  My task was to throw the egg into the mailbox, although upon throwing the egg into the mailbox Jaden’s dog started barking. Hearing the dog barking I ran as fast as I could. When I finally tired down, I laughed at the fact that I’d almost run a mile in my fear.  Not to mention that I had left my brother behind at Jaden’s house. Years later I finally became of age and started college around 2003. A few parties and pranks almost cost me my education, but I managed to get my doctorate in electronics around the year 2013.

   The rest of the page had been torn away, but James new what had happened just three years after his degree. He knew all too well…

OOC Name: Wingedillidan

IC Character Name: Zalor Malorax

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.

During an abrupt outbreak of rebels on the upper floors of my apartment complex, Zalor Malorax's parents and siblings were killed by the rebellious scum. Now Zalor seeks out justice and revenge on those who had wronged him prior, and joining the ranks of the Combine Civil Authority will get him on the right path to a true law system and a hard-working job. As-well-as seeking out and detaining, in any way possible, rebellious scum. Though revenge is a powering factor, Zalor tries to suppress his feelings in order to become more accepted with the Combine.

In addition to being directly affected by the rebels and their murderous actions, Zalor is a citizen of the oppression and stands under the Combine Civil Authority with grace and respect. It would be most honorable if Zalor Malorax were to become a member of this dedicated group and he promises to put his efforts to the best and most efficient use of the CCA. He will also attempt to use his unique personal traits to the best of the CCA's aid, as he wants to put most, if not all, of his efforts towards dedication in any way to help the Combine. If his traits are not needed, he will not attempt to force them to interfere less in CCA operations.

Since growing up passed the traumatic events of Zalor's past, he has closely inspected the rigorous routines of the patrolling officers near his apartment complex; he eventually learned a lot about what the CCA are there for and there performances. He strongly agrees to all actions done by the Combine Civil Authority and would respond to any command and/or requests from his superiors with grace and 100% loyalty. He also hopes to help, in any way he can, to battle any rebellious citizens who are causing trouble with the CCA. But will still follow orders in the event he is prohibited from doing such actions.

2) Please detail your characters traits. (Eg, Pure, Lawful, Trustworthy)

  • Kind - Zalor is kind to all who are non-rebellious to the CCA.
  • Loyal - Zalor would effectively take his own life if it were to fill an active command.
  • Vengeful - Though kind and loyal, Mr. Malorax falls victim to a stalled period of flashback whenever someone mutters a comment or name that relates to his tragic past. But once returned to his normal state, he can be very edgy.
  • Dedicated - This man is truly a hardworking citizen regardless of being enacted into the CCA or not.
  • Respectful - Zalor respects all of his peers, fellow citizens, and authorative counterparts alike, as long as they are loyal to the CCA themselves.

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 CCA to be collective team of awesome roleplayers who rarely abuse their positions and never break their roleplay stride. And I expect that said team is a carefully selected group of GMOD players who aren't annoying toddlers who just run around and troll the entire server for their leisurely activities. In addition, I foresee that the CCA will be similar to most other RP communities I have participated in, fun, filled with roleplays, non-abusive, and giving the citizens the same amount of fun in the form of RP. All while following server rules and those admins who have set, and/or enforce, those rules.

Zalor expect the Combine Civil Authority to be a collection of hard work and dedicated labor. Whether it be broken spirits and souls during training, or breaking spirits and souls of those who resist, the CCA will provide it all. Zalor also expects to be worked and demanded upon by his superior officers on a regular basis to keep his status and efficiency levels in check and to increase his hard work. All while trying to quench his lust for revenge on the rebel citizens and his goals for acceptance with the Combine oppression.

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.

Zalor Malorax was born on August 30th, 1992 in Seattle, WA within a close family of 5, a loving sister, a mischievous, though still caring, brother, and 2 parents who loved and cared for their family, regardless of any obstacles that would oppose them. Zalor carried out a life of an average citizen of the US, who was close to his family at nearly all times. He carried on through college education in Chemical Engineering at the University of Seattle. His family and himself lived downtown for most of his life and enjoyed being together. He commuted back and forth between his house in the suburbs of the city and downtown onto campus. Unfortunately, in 2004, his studies were interrupted as the portals began to errupt and he was forced into secure shelter to await further instruction. For several months Zalor lived in what felt like captivity as he saw the world around him change for, what seemed to be, the worse; luckily his family remained with him through these troubled times and they all supported each other.

The Seven Hour War struck and Zalor's hideaway was exposed fairly quickly, he and his family were forced into City5 for relocation. The Malorax family continued their lives under the new oppression that faced them. Regardless of the dramatic change in everything, they were still happy and loving.

After being forced to transfer from City 5 at the age of 20 in 2012 with his family, for a reason that is still not known, Zalor finds himself in the midst of City 18 in hopes to resume his normal life as a citizen loyal to his new authority, the CCA. However, nearly 3 months later, a band of rebellious citizens gathered in the upper levels of Zalor's assigned apartment complex. Only to create an abrupt outbreak of violence and anger towards the Combine Civil Authority, during which the Malorax family was brutally murdered in an example of outrage towards the Combine. Fortunately, Zalor was safe as he was returning from his routine errand of delivering approved rations to his home. But to his dismay, Zalor returned and was shocked as he slowly opened the door into his corpse-filled and blood-stained apartment.

4 years later, Zalor is still found in City 18 and still seeks revenge on those who have dared perform such a horrific display of murderer on the innocent, let alone murderer of the only people he truely loved. He feels that joining the CCA would give him more power in detaining the rebellious threat in the city that once wronged him, and give him a place in society to show off his hard work, loyalty, and respect. However, his work may be interrupted by his past, as he desparately fights the remaining thoughts of his loved ones' bodies murdered across the floors and walls of his apartment. He believes that the issue would be resolved with his thoughts on a new job. He has been getting medical attention whenever the CCA permitted him the access, though he has asked very sparingly as to not interfere with the jobs and duties of his respectful authority figures.

Zalor Malorax now anxiously awaits results from his recently submitted application, hoping he was accepted. Until then, he carrys out his duties as a normal, loyal, citizen of City 18.

OOC Details

1. How long have you played on role-playing servers in general? At least 3-4 weeks in playtime, real play time, not just 3-4 weeks in life playing on a server and going out with friends and stuff... A good 504+ hours of GMOD RP playtime.

2. How long have you played on serious servers? At least 40% or more of those 3-4 weeks of RP server playtime.

3. How long have you played on Catalyst Gaming? 4 hours.

4. What Time zone are you in? Eastern.

5. In what country do you live? United States

6. How old are you? 18

7. What’s your most memorable quality RP experience? The one true RP moment I had, was when I first really felt connected into an actual story within an actual world of Roleplay. Though this was before Catalyst has taken Orange Cosmos as a server. I was being placed in a real scenario as a medic in a hostage situation atop the radio tower in the city. Roleplaying in nearly 15-30 minutes of continuous hostage and fear RP actions, it was great. The mayor came in, got us out, and we were waved out; I believe the mayor paid the posted demands by the criminals; regardless, it felt pretty quality. Especially when everyone actually RP'd and had fun at the same time without being stupid trolls.

8. Do you consider yourself a good listener? Yes, many atimes have I been asked something to do and never had I asked, "Wha?" In response, but that can happen at times, I'm only human.

OOC Name: Shoebacca

IC Character Name: Jayson Jackson

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.

Jayson was a part of Children Service's and worked most of the time with children, but also with a lot of parents too. Daily, he would see children that were abused, hurt, raped, and so on by their parents, strangers, or bullies from the school. Sometimes it was the parents getting the hurt from the child, but nevertheless he had to put up with it. He almost felt like he should be doing more. He would then soon find out... After the Seven Hour War

After the Seven Hour War, Jayson was transported to a camp, where all families were being separated before his eyes, but alas, there was nothing he could do. But, as this was happening, a large group of rebels came, are started opening fire at everyone. It didn't matter if they were man, woman, child or combine, they sprayed all those bullets with no sign of mercy. He ducked for cover, as combines were determined to kill the rebels, they were destroy his cover he had found, and as he got up, he was shot twice in the arm.

Many hours later, he had found himself in a hospital bed, and his shoulder bandaged up. He looked up and saw an armband on the Combine, and saw it read: "City 18" on it. He knew he was in the aid of the combine, and ever since that raid by those rebellious scumbags, he would sign up to become part of the CCA. He promised he will take care of all Rebels and Resistance with-in the cities, and keep all citizens safe and peaceful.

2) Please detail your characters traits. (Eg, Pure, Lawful, Trustworthy)

-Loyal
-Honest
-Menacing

3) Please provide 2 paragraphs about what you are expecting the Combine Civil Authority to be like for you and your character?

From what Jayson knows about, CCA are one hell of a tough, well-kept Combines. He knows that they will stop at nothing, so that all Citizens are kept at peace. Jayson knows that he will need to be dedicated and loyal to the CCA, so he needs to keep his head up, and learn to be one with the Combines.

When Jayson was at the camp, he always heard light talk about how the Combines are bad people, and their torturous beings not from this planet. Jayson had thought this was true, until the Rebels attacked the camp. The second that happened, he knew that they were protecting us from them, not about to throw us into a pit of fire. He even saw some of them telling the people to find cover. 


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.

Jayson was born on July 12, 1990. His mother, once had given birth to him, died from what the doctors called a "Maternal death". Jayson's  father could not take this lightly and began thrashing about the room, screaming "Why God!" . He was an atheist. The doctor pulled Jayson out of the room, and since Jayson's father was in such a mental state where he could only repeat those 2 words, he was put in a mental institute for 8 months. Even the doctors said that this was no mental breakdown. During that time, the doctor gave the liberty of naming him "Jayson".

Ever since that, they put Jayson in an orphanage until his father came out, but for some reason, his father never came to pick him up. So he spent 13 years in an orphanage. Everyone of the kids there would fight constantly, so one day, Jayson thought he would see what made these children fight. After every fight, Jayson would ask every child why they would fight, what they got out of it, and so on and so forth. Once Jayson interviewed all the kids, they finally came to a resolution to the point where there was not a fight at all for 2 months, until most of them were adopted and new children came and it just started all over again.

Not 1 person would come pick him up, because he was so silent during this. Jayson constantly saw children come and go. Jayson would always ponder to himself, "When will I be one of those kids where I'll have a nice home, instead of this crummy old place..." . Then, one day, 2 very rich, nicely dressed couples came and saw him. Jayson knew that this day was the day he would finally leave, and live a normal life. Boy, was he wrong.

Once they had adopted Jayson, they took him to there nice mansion, gave him nice clothing, shoes and whatnot. They enrolled him in a private school, and from that day on, he thought this was a normal life. Apparently not. They forced him to study day and night, no T.V., no hanging out with friends, and even if he gave the phone number to his friends and such, his parents would always be the first to answer and if they asked if Jayson was home, his parents would say "Wrong number".

Once Jayson finally hit the age of 19, he got a apprenticeship to the CSC (Child Services Care) and was earning enough money to get away from his parents. 2 years past, and he was getting no promotion, and he was growing tired of all this abuse that these children and parents were getting. So Jayson was about to complain to the CEO of CSC when the word of The Seven Hour War hit. Thus, leading up to the events of the combine camp, the rebels attacking to camp, being shot in the shoulder, and City 18.

IC Character Name: Andrew L. Roberts

    Andrew Roberts lived a luxurious life all the way from birth to age ten. He harmed no one, he respected everyone. He was never told what to do, he just did what he did. At the age of ten, his mother died in a local store robbery. Devastated, he tried to find a way to cope with this event. He became interested in revenge, though he knew he could never get it.
   Since his father was never around, he got into much trouble with the police. After years of incriminating things, Andrew was 17. He decided to change his ways for the better of the people. Robert forgot about his past, his father and his mother. He looked only towards the future, a improved society he contributed to. Little did he know that is vision was about to be made seemingly horrible reality.
   Andrew was nineteen at the first threat of the unknown. During the rise of the still unknown, Andrew applied for placement in a Police Academy. All other form of authority was neutralized, thus leaving Andrew to try to join his horribly realized dream. Time passed it is now 2016, and Andrew is more than ready to improve the Human society and race,in general.

-Honorable
-Set minded
-Commen sense
-Thinks he knows whats best.


3) Please provide 2 paragraphs about what you are expecting the Combine Civil Authority to be like for you and your character?
OOC:            
   To be honest I've never been in any C.C.A, I am truly looking forward to it. Hopefully it will be a more enjoyable experience than I can imagine. And maybe I can finally have a useful role in the server. I expect there to be a lot of problems that I have to deal with, sounds fun to me. I expect some challenges from higher ranks, or maybe just pressure. I'm only doing this because I like a challenge, and I hope the will provide.
IC:
    My character expects to be able to help general society, and promote civil action. He wants a challenge that is not easily overcome. For he feels he needs to tame man of there beastly side (Mother being killed in robbery). He also feels he needs to make up for his crimes, by helping others not commit them.
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.

    Andrew was born in 1986, His life from birth to simply age ten was plush, and delicate. He never had a worry, he never harmed a thing. He did as he did, no one told what was right nor wrong. His father owned a couch dealership in <INSERT CLASSIFIED INFORMATION HERE>, and was always busy with business. When his mother was killed in a local store robbery by a gang, this made him have all then time in the world. Thus as in an corrupted family,the son committed crimes.

    Andrew at the age of 16, committed a act of robbery. He was horribly disgusted with him self, for that was how his mother died. After a year in a local prison, Andrew decided to change his ways. Hey paid for all damages and fines, and even donated his fortune to the local government. He had A new mind set, improve the human society.

    A year later, Andrew had given most of his time to society. He had not committed one questionable act of crime. In fact, he had prevented most crime in his area by helping the police force spot criminal hideouts. This all soon came to a end when the unknown appeared. During this immediate takeover, Andrew was finally signing up for a placement in a local Police Academy. To bad the unknown neutralized all other force of threatening authority. Andrew did no take this takeover lightly, for he thought they had only bad intentions. The Unknown took every civilian in his area to a new city. Andrew was aboard a train, and he heard a voice that sounded of secretly evil intentions. Although he
was suspicious, he passed this as nothing more than a wrong judgement.
    Since Andrew was 19, he was moved to City 32. There he lived for eleven years under the oppression of the unknown. During his time there he earned respect for them. The more he learned about their goals, the more excited he became. He soon realized he wanted to join them. No question.

    Before applying in City 32, he was moved to City 18. Andrew is now fully realized and ready to aid Humanity in good civil actions. He is now awaiting orders for signing up.

I was having the time of my life playing like 'Roger that' and 'Over'. Things didn't go down hill from there either, I found a weapon. Got some ammo and my Char was suddenly a bad-ass. After all this crazy recruiting shit, I got in a massive firefight with Over-watch. Sadly I only killed one, as I was playing shoot to miss (It is pretty fun). I got PK'd and thanked the people for a awesome role playing experience.

IC Character Name: Thomas Anderson

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.

Since Thomas Anderson was a little boy, he dreamed of a society. A society perfect and with no crime or any fighting, but his dream, he thought would never come true. In Kindergarten, Thomas was a troubled and lost soul. He was fighting and hitting kids with rulers, throughout his whole school career, he was expelled from six schools, and two entire school districts.

By the time he was fourteen, he dropped out of middle school and started to work at Wendy's. He was living in a rundown apartment and was a pure alcoholic, his girlfriends were all skanks and crackwhores that were too helpless to resist the beatings he gave out. By the time he was sixteen, six of his ex-girlfriends were missing, and Tom murdered one and was convicted of first degree murder.

He was sentenced to life in prison, he was in jail for three years before the unknown invaded Earth. Within those seven hours, he escaped and was captured by the Combine. He was shipped to City 17 at first, then to City 8, and finally he was shipped permanently to City 18. Since he was shipped to City 18 he realized that the society he dreamed of, was right in front of him the whole time. He was glad to be in City 18, and he wishes to help keep the city and society safe and secure.

2) Please detail your characters traits. (Eg, Pure, Lawful, Trustworthy)

1. Cold-blooded
2. Vicious

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 CCA to be a great experience for myself, and my character. He's already beaten enough people and has the guts to do it again. So this should be a reuniting experience for him and his past self. Tom likes the way the CCA does things. I personally am expecting a nice experience, I've never roleplayed a serious police officer before. So this should be an awesome experience for myself and my character.

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.

Tom Anderson was a troubled person. He was a bully in his school days and failed every year. He barely made it through middle school. During his High School years he became a drug addict, guzzling down beer bottles and smoking blunts like there was no tomorrow.

He also formed a gang. They were basically a group of guys who wanted to get drunk and shoot people. However, Tom only took place in one robbery, that was at a liquor store. Tom accidentally shot a woman in the neck and he ran away without taking any money. He later found out that the woman he shot was the mother of a child. He decided to crank up the drugs to ease the pain.

He then turned his anger on his girlfriends, killing seven of them, he hid six of their bodies successfully. However, one of his neighbors heard a gunshot and called the Police when he was killing his seventh girlfriend. Since then he had a large disrespect for authority, until he was transferred to City 18, he realized the dream he had long ago. Came true.

OOC Name: Danger of Death

IC Character Name: Mark Wilson

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.

   Mark Wilson wants to join the Combine Civil Authority for a few reasons. The main reason he wants to join is because he wants to exact a small revenge on those around him who complain about the poor living conditions. He is angry at them because as a young child, he was beaten and abused by his parents. He feels that citizens have no reason to complain and it’s his duty to show them what true pain is like.

Mark also want to feel like he is part of something significant. Throughout his life, he had nothing, both before and during the occupation. He was shunned by citizens and had no family, long-term friends, or anyone to really talk to. If he were to be accepted, it would be an easy transition, as he has nothing to leave behind.

Despite being emotionless towards others around him, Mark is still curious to how things operate from the inside. He wants to see things from the Combine’s point of view. He wants to learn why the Combine treat people like this. He is also interested in hearing the opinions of Civil Authority officers regarding the citizens.

2) Please detail your characters traits. (Eg, Pure, Lawful, Trustworthy) Lawful, Loyal, Self-Sufficient.


3) Please provide 2 paragraphs about what you are expecting the Combine Civil Authority to be like for you and your character?
   
   For myself, I am expecting the Combine Civil Authority to be exciting as it would be completely new point of view for me. Previously, I would have been always role-playing a character that goes through the same routine all the time, is bossed around, and is meaningless to others. I’m hoping that being a Civil Authority would not only increase my role-playing skills, but I feel my hardened and emotionless character, Mark Wilson, would fit in well with the Half Life 2 Universe as a Civil Authority officer.

   Speaking through Mark Wilson, he expects the Combine Civil Authority to be a refreshing experience. As stated previously that his reasons of joining are to get revenge and cause pain, he would expect this to be a fitting job for him. He knows that the Civil Authority involves a lot of patience and there is a lot to learn about how things are done. He is hoping that if he does well enough, he may be able to increase his rank and importance to others.
   
   
   
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.

   Mark Wilson was born on July 14th, 1983. He lived in a suburban neighborhood filled with drugs, violence, and crime. His parents were avid drug users and he saw firsthand what those drugs did. He was beaten often by his parents and was malnourished. At the age of 9, he finally had enough of this treatment and fled from his home. Although Mark had nowhere to go or any idea of what the world was like, he knew nothing could be as bad as his home. Being a homeless child, he had nothing. A few days after he ran away, a police officer found Mark sleeping on a park bench and took him in. Because his parents never bothered to look for him or inform anyone of his disappearance, the police knew nothing about his past and placed him in an orphanage. At the orphanage, he was sent to a local elementary school and was placed in the third grade class. At school, Mark finally was able to speak to children his own age and make friends with a few. Because he had never received the most basic of education, Mark struggled to keep up with his friends and others in his class. Despite his best efforts to learn the material, Mark was held back a year while his friends went ahead.
   After being held back two more years, he was finally allowed to move onto the fourth grade at age 12. Being the largest and oldest pupil in the grade, the other students were afraid to approach him. Mark felt isolated and alone from everyone else. He didn’t know why others were scared of him, or why he even went to school. It was at this point he decided to work hard and vowed to graduate from high school. For the rest of grade school, middle school, and high school, Mark was never again held back and scrapped by with C’s and the occasional B. Finally, on June 6th, 2003, Mark graduated from high school at the age of 20. He didn’t plan on continuing his education after this, and set off with no idea what to do. He worked at odd jobs here and there, and earned enough money to eat. Mark continued with this until the fateful day when the world changed forever.
Mark was working at a carwash when the Portal Storms suddenly erupted around the world. Marked stopped his work and watched as a blue wave from a Super Portal approached him. As it came closer, he saw buildings shaking and falling apart as the wave passed over them. Mark knew something was wrong and he turned and ran. He only got a few yards before the wave reached him and he was knocked to the ground. After a few minutes of being knocked out on the ground, he regained consciousness and crawled over to a nearby building as the sound of gunfire came from nearby. From a window, he saw giant tripod like creatures firing into windows and doorways while bodies were sprawled all over the street, some still stirring feebly. He quickly backed away from the window and searched for the basement stairs as one of the giant tripods turned towards his building. He found the door, opened it, and dived down the stairs as the building above him came apart. Mark hid behind a washing machine while the screams of the dying and the sounds of guns came from overhead. What seemed like days passed before Mark ventured up the stairs to the surface. He was greeted by the rubble of the building strewn around him and thus began his new life as a citizen of the Universal Union.

After a period of about 20 minutes, the police reached an agreement with the raiders and secured the release of all the hostages and the Mayor. It was very well RP’d by both the police and the raiders.
