Discord name: MAGNUM

In-character name: Randomized as grunts, Tar 'Strangam if I'm whitelisted.

General character info: My RP as grunts vary from overwhelmingly cowardly, to being ignorant about the danger in front of them.

Reason for joining : I've had fun playing the server as the default roles of both sides, and want to try/play more of the covenant roles.

Roleplay Example/History: I've been playing medium to high rp servers for a year or so now.

In-character name: Kipyap as an Unggoy, Tiz as a Kig Yar.

General character info: Kipyap is a stereotypical Unggoy. He's dumb, brave, and hates those stupid Kig Yar. Kipyap only references himself by using his name. Ex: 'Kipyap see stupid Kig Yar!'. Tiz, on the otherhand, is a dedicated Kig Yar, and loves to shoot at Heretic ships with the Glassing Beam...heh..

Reason for joining : I just find the Covenant a more interesting faction then the Innies or UNSC. Their culture and government is just..well...more interesting. 

Roleplay Example/History: I've played on CM, and SS13 in general, for a good 3-4 years, including roles such as XO/SO and Squad Leader. I believe that will help me here, if I was in a Major/Ultra position in-game.

Do you understand that whitelisted Spartans are expected to comment on and observe the conduct of other Spartan, on the forums as well as discord?
Yes

Name of the Spartan you want to play (Name-000. Try and avoid commonly known numbers like -117.):
Cody-003


Explain what you would do in the following scenarios and why:


Scenario 1:

You’re on the ONI Aegis and the ONI RD requests a Sierra team to deploy to VT9, as the covenant have been spotted and are attacking. They have not breached the gate and it is unclear as to the size of their forces. What do you do?

prepare for a rapid deployment and assess known information enemy force size, status of the defense and its defenders. there is no need to deploy Spartans unless the base gate falls and the security force is overwhelmed by numbers equipment. or superior tactics or all of the above.
if the time came to deploy ideally we'd drop into the AO. rapidly approach the flanks of hostile attackers. cause as much devastation as possible then EVAC out after the initial attack has been broken and enemy forces have been routed. (and after Assuring Critical ONI Assets are secure.)
Scenario 2:

You’re on the ONI Aegis and receive an urgent request from a Platoon Leader to deploy onto the UNSC Warship as the Insurrectionists have deployed a sizeable force and are taking control of the ship, and arming the nuclear device as they request assistance. What do you do?

Confirm that the platoon lead is the ACO on-board the warship. then assess the situation. Taking control of the ship suggests the UNSC and ODSTs have already tired and failed to repel the Insurrectionists forces from boarding the warship and taking key locations on the ship. and while it is not a priority to ensure UNSC warships survival or continuation of operations in the sector. the ships fate is directly linked to the fate of future operations for oni and spartans in the sector. if the UNSC falls ONI is in danger of being discovered if insurrectionist forces discover the nav chip. without the Marines and ODSTS of the Light brigade spartans may face a ramp up in deployments if hostile forces discover the classified ONI site on VT9.
to prevent possible discovery of ONI and to safeguard ONI's interest and operations in the sector. I would deploy. a quick in and out, to secure the bomb and UNSC's continued command of the UNSC Warship. then go back to standby on the prowler.
Scenario 3:

You’ve been deployed on a mission to give the covenant back their bomb. You manage to arm the bomb, but your fellow spartan has been cut down and his body is being dragged away by the Covenant towards an escape pod. What do you do?

I would be forced to chase after my Battle Buddy to ensure that the classified gear that I and my battle buddy carries is secure. either by destruction. or by the return of the gear to the prowler. if i managed to prevent my battle buddy from being taken i would take the option that was more viable. 
Either A. Destruction of the gear Via completion of my mission. defend the bomb to the bitter end. ensuring the destruction of cov forces in the sector (if EVAC is not possible for whatever reason.) and the destruction of My gear, and the gear of my fellow spartan.
B. Evac with my fellow spartan and his gear. failing my mission in-order to uphold protection of classified gear. I will not be able to deploy again with out somebody to team with me.
There are many ways this situation could go with the many factors found in the field. but these are the choices i'd within reason make.

Name of the Spartan you want to play (Name-000. Try and avoid commonly known numbers like -117.): Eva-077


Explain what you would do in the following scenarios and why:


Scenario 1:

You’re on the ONI Aegis and the ONI RD requests a Sierra team to deploy to VT9, as the covenant have been spotted and are attacking. They have not breached the gate and it is unclear as to the size of their forces. What do you do?

Who's attacking? Deploying for a jackal or two that are taking potshots at the gate is excessive when the local ONI Sec team can handle it. I would prod the RD for more info to see if it's a group of Ultras and Majors or a horde of grunts. The latter can be handled by an UNSC/ONI Sec while the former would kill them all. Then I'd ask if they have a mission beyond "show up, shoot some grunts, go home". An example of a mission I would deploy for is: "Kill the Shipmaster and Ultras leading the attack, and recover their gear for the base to examine."

You’re on the ONI Aegis and receive an urgent request from a Platoon Leader to deploy onto the UNSC Warship as the Insurrectionists have deployed a sizeable force and are taking control of the ship, and arming the nuclear device as they request assistance. What do you do?

Are they aCO? No? I will tell them to tell the CO to request assistance. Again, prod for more specific details. Do they want me to decapitate the Insurrectionists' chain of command? Do they want me to take back the ship? Disarm the nuke? These three are valid missions that I would do and I won't deploy if I don't get one along these lines.

You’ve been deployed on a mission to give the covenant back their bomb. You manage to arm the bomb, but your fellow spartan has been cut down and his body is being dragged away by the Covenant towards an escape pod. What do you do?

Get the body back. If the bomb gets disarmed, so be it. Once the body is recovered, what I do next depends on if the bomb is on or if I can get it back on without dying to the Covenant. If possible, do that then leave with the body. If it isn't possible, just leave with the body. The loss of two Spartans for one ship isn't an equal trade. The only time I would leave the body behind to be destroyed with the bomb is if I absolutely know it won't get yoinked by some Elite with sticky fingers the moment I leave AND if I can't take it back with me. If I'm the last Spartan standing, then I'll fax HC and defend the Aegis until new orders from them. Honestly, I would always prioritize recovering the gear or making sure it's destroyed.

In-character name: Liyis

general character info: I enjoy acting like the race from the lore, like grunts not being that bright or elites having honor in battle, i like the whole idea of multiple races and many ways to roleplay 

Reason for joining: I liked the aliens in sci-fi and the covenant are no exception, I find their lore fairly interesting and the matches i played as a grunt gave me enough inspiration to write an application 

Roleplay Example/History: I played a lot of fallout, a little bit of paradise and loads of TG

In-character name:duk

general character info: one of the many foot soldiers who populate the covenant empire, duk tends to be quiet and reserved, but prone to panic in stressful situations.

Reason for joining : ive been playing for a couple of days now and want to try and get whitelisted for some of the other roles, as i feel they would be interesting and fun to play.

Roleplay Example/History: i have played on other rp pvp servers and try to use the situation to determine how my character would react, not me personally, as rp is sorta about being able to get into character.

Reason for joining : Love Halo and want to play as the invaders. I think roleplaying as a grunt would be silly fun.
