3) Please provide 2 paragraphs about what you are expecting the Combine Civil Authority to be like for you and your character.Well for me,I feel like this would help expand my role-playing opportunities quite a bit.Being a citizen was only step one to develop my RP better even though I have been RP'ing for quite a long time(3 years)
As for my character:
He expects the CCA to be strict,harsh and frightening.He thinks that making a mistake could be fatal to his position or even his life.That's why he would always be respectful to his superiors,lest he get punished.The road will be long and tough but he always knows his limits.He knows that he will need to learn a lot,observe his superiors.Truly,he would much more power than the common citizen and could strike pure fear into their already crumpled up hearts.And while he could rule the citizens with fear,that does not mean fear does would rule him,as well.
His superiors know that well.They know that he should always be polite,orderly and fearful of his superiors.Always obey orders.Never question the higher-ups.After all,hes just a guy in a suit right now.Who knows what might happen to him now that he finally has this job?
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.On the day of the Black Mesa incident,Kuro Akai was born in an apartment building,floor 7 room 67.As the Xen and the combine began ravaging earth,it's cities and it's inhabitants,Kuro was laying in his mothers arms,being breast fed.At that moment in time,for Kuro's parents it seemed like all their troubles disappear once they look into their newborns eyes.They were having the time of their lives just being with each other and the baby.For them,it seemed like they finally have something that they can dedicate every ounce of their being to - their baby.
An hour later the attack finally reached their city.They suddenly heard screams,gunshots and an explosion.Kuro started to cry.The father went out to see what's going on just to be immediately pushed back in.He never saw anything like them - black uniforms and a ghost white mask.It was the combine.They seemed incredibly alien to him. The combine punched him in the gut and he fell to the ground - all the while Kuro and the mother are screaming and crying.He proceeded to shoot the father in the head.A feeling of massive denial fell over her.One of the combine ripped Kuro out of her arms and the other started mercilessly beating her.She started screaming:"Please,you can kill me just don't hurt my baby!"In truth,the combine were annoyed most by the baby and it's painful crying."So,you are willing to sacrifice your life for his own - a tiny,bleak and worthless existence?"Yes,yes!Just please,don't kill him! - The mother screamed.''Alright",he said."Hey,how about we use that thing he gave us?"."But it's the only one of it's kind!What if it breaks?"- The combine replied."Stop worrying so much and just use the damn thing."
As the combine reached near the woman,he pulled out a green tube of some kind.There was a needle pointing of both ends.He pierced the mothers heart with it.The green color started changing into red.After the tube had fully turned red,he turned to the baby and stabbed him in the chest.The tube started draining and glowed a very intense red light.Kuro started to age rapidly.In less than two minutes,he was 19.Faced with incredible pain and only having bare animal instincts,he attacked one of the combine.And with temporary superhuman strength from both the tube and the adrenaline,he tore one of their throats out right through the armor.He started punching and kicking the shit out of the second combine.He felt his ribs breaking and piercing both his lungs,heart and even penetrating out of the armor.Kuro rushed out of the apartments and ran according to his instincts.
Five hours have passed and he ended up outside the city near a waste disposal facility,somehow avoiding all those Xen and Combine.Tired,hungry and finally overcome by fear,he decided to sleep inside an abandoned shed.Twenty-four hours passed and Kuro woke up from a deep sleep.As he ventured outside,he saw a human with a gun.It was a refugee.Instantly,his head filled with the memory of him killing the combine and he attempted to attack the female refugee.However,once their eyes met Kuro turned to stone,stopped naked in his tracks and stared crying.He didn't know why,but his heart felt like it was about to explode.The female approached him and asked what his name was.He didn't know what to do because he couldn't reply,so he just started hugging her as strong as he could.She assumed Kuro had a total mental breakdown because of the attack and vowed to keep him alive and help him.
A month had passed and Kuro learned basic English from her.She asked him,what would he like his name to be.He thought about it and not really knowing how names work replied : ''Black,red". ''Black and red?" - She replied.''Well then,your name will be Kuro Akai.'' "Kuro......Akai?"- He replied confused,never hearing the words before and somehow deciding they don't fit in with what she was teaching him."It means black and red in another language".
Two years have passed and Kuro decided to leave the waste disposal plant.The female died a month ago and it started getting dangerous.He approached the city because she instructed him to.As soon as he saw the Combine again,his head became blank and fear filled his heart.As he approached the city gates,the guards told him to ''apply'',whatever that is.He told them his name and now he's in the city.Distraught,scared and angry at the female.''Why did she send me here,of all places?!'' Then he realized - revenge.Knowing he couldn't do anything without the proper tools,Kuro has since been trying to get into the combines ranks to get some proper equipment.But he feels as if he want a better life more than anything and he noticed that even though the combine hurt people,they can also improve their lives greatly.He wanted to do that.He wanted to keep peace and give them a better life.Who knows if he'll try to carry out revenge or succumb to a better life for himself and for others?
