In-character name: Roq (Kig Yar), Beckeral Greene (Human)

general character info: Sheepish chemical savvy marksman Kig-Yar, Excells in quiet long range scenarios, panics when they get too close for comfort.

Reason for joining : Recommended by another user, wanted to try my hand at roleplaying an Elite.

Roleplay Example/History: Have managed to roleplay out of being a covenant prisoner as a human civilian by complying with demands and realistically dealing with the threat of violence as a civilian should. Been playing Citadel for almost two years now, joined CM13 about six months ago. Preffered support and roleplay oriented roles over combat heavy roles.

Character(s): David Warren


How does your character interact with the world around them and the people in it?: 
       David can usually be seen chatting with the locals when not in an active combat zone, and is generally seen to be an open person for anyone to talk to. He is usually the first to jump into the action, leading charges and breaching doors first. David makes sure to get all of his comrades out alive, and isn’t there to make any suicidal moves.
       David views his fellow UNSC members as his family members, no matter their rank or title. He makes it his priority to save as many lives as possible, but understands that sacrifices must be made for the greater good.
       He views insurrectionists as nothing more than a bunch of poorly armed rebels, and doesn’t speak or view highly of them. He knows that they will do whatever they can to defend their homes and lives, and is ready to combat them lethally or non lethally.
       For the Covenant, he sees nothing more than a faction of brutal and savage aliens, who should be treated as such and does not make it his top priority to non lethally detain them.


Provide a brief description of your character:
       David Warren is a larger built man, and has black hair with a buzz cut and goatee. David Warren was born in the inner-colonies to a wealthy family who owned a large mining company, which he didn’t want to take any part in. In his younger years, he would often fantasize about travelling the stars and what it would be like to fly a ship. When he came of age, he enlisted into the UNSC and fit in well with his peers. He made great friends while in the corps and was seen as a very relaxed man when not in combat. David excelled in many of his classes, both physical and mental, and his superiors recommended that he should try out for the ODST candidate training. He agreed, and took up the opportunity. David struggled at first in his training, but grew accustomed to the new rigorous training that he would be taking. He graduated ODST training with only minor difficulties, and is now awaiting deployment on the UNSC Bertels as a graduated ODST.

Character(s): Riley O'Keeffe

How does your character interact with the world around them and the people in it?: He's an optimistic youth and a bit of a drunk. He's loyal to the people he cares about, and sympathetic towards his enemies. He knows how bad the Covenant are, but has had experiences with them that didn't immediately end in someones death. The duality of war, as it were. He's open to taking prisoners, but isn't afraid to pull the trigger if he has to. His personality around friends could be described as 'Friendly alcoholic with a great amount of care and friendship."

Provide a brief description of your character: 5'9 Anglo-Irish lad spacerborn, his citizenship is Geminus. That's right, a Geminus native. He was born aboard a small shuttle ship, which then landed on Geminus. He grew up happy, friendly, and fierce, having been rather poor in his days. He joined a gang at a young age, being struck into the local URF cell as a child. From there, he grew up as a URF Loyalist... Aye, until he realized the truth of the matter. He saw the holotapes. He saw the videos of people being butchered in the streets by aliens. He heard the planets going dark.

He knew friends, people from those planets. Gone forever. It terrified him. But he knew he had to fight. And sitting around with the URF wouldn't get him anywhere. He went to a local recruiting office, enlisting for the ODST before he was sent to Mars for training. From there, he went through the grueling process of training, through hell and high-water, before he was finally accepted. 

Now, he fights on the frontlines, your average ODST with a streak of mercy to him, ready to protect all the lives he can- Be they human or alien. But with a finger on the trigger.. He's not afraid to take a life or two if they seem like they might be a threat.

Discord name (username####): Fanatic Materialist Walaski

Character Name(s): Joe Walaski, Alex Walaski, Greyson Blisk (ODST Character),Harper O'Neill (command character)

Do you understand the RoE? 


I do

Do you understand that you are not above the law, and may be persecuted for not following the RoE?

 I understand that command members are not above the law, orders specifically breaking the RoE, rules and causing harm to a round with ill intention are to be avoided and i understand that i will be removed for doing so.

Do you understand that you can be removed from the whitelist at any given time, based on your behavior, even when not playing the role you applied for?

I understand

What do you think your job is as the role you are applying for?

 The job of the commanding officer as stated is to lead the marines (and by extent ODST) through the round to accomplish the tasks of the UNSC. Their job is also most importanty to provide a fun and enjoyable experience to their subordinates and present new Roleplay opportunities.

Why should you be whitelisted?

I have been playing as the UNSC in total for about nearly two years now (granted in between i had taken a minor break from the UNSC to experience new opportunities in the URF) and in that time i have noticed that the UNSC is lacking in (competent) command players. Most of the round you do not even see a platoon leader, much less an officer and i would like to contribute to solving that issue with contributing to rounds as command roles.

Character Name(s): Xuro 'Sekamee


How long have you been a member of the Covenant Faction?
 1.5 years

Do you understand the restrictions that Honour Guards have placed on them?
 I fully understand that they are an esteemed body guard with all the rights and restrictions that entails and not soldiers, leave leading charges against heretic positions to the Majors and Minors.

Do you understand that you are not above the Covenant law, and may be persecuted for not following the RoE?
Completely.

Do you understand that you can be removed from the whitelist at any given time, based on your behaviour, even when not playing the role you applied for?
 I fully understand.


Situation: 


Your fellow Honour Guard has been killed, as well as your prophet, by a human. You saw the human do this and follow him to find a group of humans. After engaging, you manage to kill the offending human, but the others manage to retreat where you could easily follow. What do you do next?

According to Honor guard regulations and the fact that i've already killed the one who dishonored me, my next course of action is alert the battlenet of the prophet's death and either begin guarding the Shipmaster if one is present. Or returning to the Mantle and guarding it until someone of a suitable position appears for me to resume my duties. Depending on circumstances i may instead commit suicide to restore my honor.


Why should you be whitelisted?

  I believe i could add to the general fun and RP of the covenant side, the chance to RP the dynamics of the honored bodyguard of a VIP appeals to me from an RP perspective as an avid fan of the halo games and lore. I generally fulfill the combat requirements a role such as Honor Guard entails and am able to Roleplay to a relatively high degree when required. Ultimately it all boils down to the fact that i believe playing the dynamics that this role entails could make for a great deal of enjoyment for every one involved in both RP and combat situations.

* My covenant title on the forums isn't removed, but I contacted James to remove my in game whitelist.

Who were you banned by: The grey tide

Date of ban: 12th of June

Length of ban: A month. 

Full ban reason: Killing three people without reasoning as the ban message stated. 

Appeal details/ Why should you be unbanned:

PLEASE READ THROUGH THIS, THANK YOU. 

Because I feel like there was major miscommunication in the initial conversation with Allakai and the  The Grey Tide, who I know listened to what I had to say, but don't know if they asked the killed players and my teammates, how they felt regarding my actions, which I also udnerstand isn't something that matters in that situation. Anyways, this is my first ban, and I really had to appeal it as I play here daily. So here's why In my opinion, I need to get unbanned:

The round itself started normally, I was playing a bit of a stupidly built character, who I did give a reference picture from Deus Ex, and a detailed description as to not make it just mingy trash. One of the reasons I joined covenant is because I enjoy roleplay.
As the round progressed, I was still on my Walter Simmons character who was a URF Infiltrator, aka the first character I spawned as. My colleague went to the mayor's office, so I followed him in, beforehand announcing my intentions to murder the mayor. I entered the office with my assault rifle that I took out behind close doors, just to be met with a gun trained on my character by the Mayor himself, so because I IC'ly wasn't armed for such a confrontation (lack of protective gear), shot and killed the mayor (Who I initially thought was UEG, like I thought the GCPD were UEG aswell, until I was corrected). My colleague gave himself and myself all access, but as that happened, a doctor saw us and began to scream like a maniac, running around like crazy.

The doctor was kill number two, killed to cut loose ends as I knew he'd snitch, due to his manic behavior. I shot him, dragged and hid him away in the slums, planting a holdout gun next to him. (After the ban I held a conversation with the player who roleplayed as the doctor, who then told me that he clearly understood the reason I killed him for.)

Kill number three, a more brutal kill that sparked the whole "murderbone" trial. The GCPD officer, the only officer on the station. During that kill I had already respawned on another Infiltrator. It took place probably an hour or so after said respawn, but the reason behind that kill was because of the wish to avenge the death of William Westmore, who got gunned down by a UNSC Marine, and I think a character named Sarah, a PMC that put on a whole set of GCPD armor. As they killed my teammate, my cover still wasn't blown on the new character, but he got his foot fractured by a round during the crossfire. The officer was a casualty caused by the fact that I ICly accepted the officers as an active threat.

This is a breakdown of the kills. Was it done in a way that could be considered low rp murderboning? Sure, from an OOC standpoint yes, but from a situational/roleplay standpoint, no. I like the server, I'm on here daily. I thought the point of the URF are to be terrorists, freeing the system by killing active threats to the cause like i did. I do apologise for any inconveniences that I might've caused, and for bugging the admins in DMs. I was never trying to be toxic or rude, just disappointed by the fact we never got to a consensus before such a hefty ban was hammered on my account. Thank you for reading.
