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 Details1. 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.
