Game Master
Quick note before you start reading, if you've gone through my other game master application you might find some parts of that application recycled here, this is so as to bring up key points and factors about questions which ask for previous experience, current experiences and so on. I am only adding them to have my time frame on this server match up to what I'm saying here on this written application. Parts with a slight discolouration of darker, grayish tone are the blocks of text copied from my previous application, as for mentionned above.

Q: Do you have any previous experience as a Gamemaster/Event Manager in a community?
A: Previously, I had held numerous positions across several FiveM servers which ran off of the DOJ Roleplay theme. This kind of roleplay was much stricter, more serious, and highly immersive, requiring the entirety of the playerbase to stay in character at all times. It involved developping and improvising on situations continuously, meaning that even during OOC situations, staff scenes, and such, everyone had to remain in roleplay until the situation was resolved and taken to a staff sit or VC. On one of these servers, which I will not mention here, I once held a high civilian rank that involved planning roleplay for the entire server on both the Law Enforcement (LEO) and Civilian sides. This ranged from simple "strangers and freaks" events, to larger scale and Special Roleplay event scenarios with the actual Event Team, certain Admins, and even the Owners who often joined Special Roleplay events to record content for their respective channels.
I was also a Game Master for a few months on SCP-RP (here), whilst I did get removed I would like to include this as it not only gave me really good building experience for Garrys Mod, but also profound experience with GMObjectives and event characters which has allowed me to render a few events perfectly with very positive feedback from players who were involved and engaged themselves, even eye-witnesses of the event who hadn't participated yet still chose to voice their opinion.
Q: Do you have any previous experience with serious roleplay?
A: During my tenure on SCP-RP I held and still hold several, diverse positions across many Departments and factions, all these positions have taught me the fabrics of how to really immerse a character and play it through in the aspect of Garry's Mod which was a very new roleplay setting for me. This can also be said for SCP-RP as when I joined this server first I was clueless to the SCP Foundation's lore and its GoIs. I however quickly learnt things the right way and picked up pace to develop two main characters which I still play on today, they have a depth of lore and a well-developped reputation and background to each of their name and I believe that sums up my experience within serious roleplay on SCP-RP.
Now as for outside of this, I have been on the ranks of a few FiveM communities who hosted DOJ (Department of Justice) styled roleplay - this style is focused on the general game lore of GTA and actually taught me a ton of basics and fabrics on how to develop a character, be fully immersed and immerse others in your roleplay and also with traits that you act with when playing a certain character like your voice acting, moods, the type of person they are and generally how you would act if you were said character. With this in mind I've gathered so much past-experience and skill with serious-rp and fully in-character (meaning all OOC is banned for except in Discord/TS5 and or staff tickets) that as of today I still got it with character development and roleplay creation. Outside of combative acts and PvP, I am very active on the side of passive roleplay, and act in as a non-combative sort of with what I do. I really enjoy non-combative roleplay, be it for Ethics Assistant or in-base as CI BCOM I love documentation and roleplay interactions that involve building a story and telling that same story.
Across all my tenures in DOJ-styled roleplay servers I have held two high-ranking seats in PD roleplay and the rest was mostly supervisor work, I'd like to mention this at last because these positions had ran through 2 - 3 years of my time playing FiveM; alongside gang roleplay (more so cartels) all these positions and past experiences which I have have taught me all my skills which I use today to really build a character and act as that person with a unique, fitting trait.
Q: How many hours can you be on everyday?
A: It depends on my work schedule and overall mood/free-time, and I am quite busy on most working days, and even sometimes on holidays. However my ability to continue playing and provide quality interactions and roleplay isn't necessarily disabled even with such a small window of time. I can still be on for up to 5 - 7 hours a day if I am not busy or finish work early enough. When I am offline I also try my best to reply to announcements, dms and such so I believe I am most avaliable for who I am outside of this community.
Q: Why do you want to become a Gamemaster on our server?
A: Initially and for the first time I applied to GM I was inspired to do so by @Lord Mirai (未来) and this motivation he had gave me was very good and so I applied. I however fell short and just a few months after my discharge I believe I am ready again to try and do better this time, try and be as good all-around and perform my work like before; I thank @Julien White for telling me I should try and reapply again someday, I had been talking to him for a while and he has motivated me to keep continuing my roleplay and eventually look forward to an application for GM again which brings us here. As for my main intentions and reasons to why I want to be a game master again, it is because I believe being a game master brings creativity and efficiency together from a non-game master and a roleplay leader to a new person whom can do the following all-in-one instance:
- Host quality, supervised and thought-through events for all factions, privately or publicly
- Play out a character with the help of their tools for roleplay enhancements (props, GMSwep effects) and utilise all of their tools avaliable to their belt for positive outcomes with every roleplay scenario.
I would like to become a game master on CN because I would love to be able to perform events again, do voice acting and play out characters like I always did; another thing that strikes out to me is building, since I was discharged I lost passion to building but I've gotten back into it lately and I strongly believe I was a good builder and utilised the advdupe system for good with roleplay enhancements between CI and Foundation but also for regular events. I'd really love to be able to put my brush and pen together again to paste dupes, set up lighting and have people immerse themselves into new, high-quality scenery with an in-depth storyline and character ready to welcome them.
Q: What do you think you would be able to help us with on the server? Why are you special over the other applicants?
A: I don't exactly think I am special however I believe I am quite unique from the rest of the future applicants; as it stands currently there are zero interested applicants whom have taken time, effort and self-reflect on their background and actions to really be considered "unique" or "special" from the rest of the server in such a way that would really make them stand out for a role, Game Master. I can think of a multitude of players who had that trait to them and could've easily become a game master yet chose to be staff, not to name anyone since all of them are truly great and their roleplay and background is outstanding in my opinion - but it goes to show that for me I'll always be ready to choose GM over anything else if I was given the chance. My strengths really set me aside from the others in a positive light which brings me to argue on what those strengths are. I believe I am a competant and trustworthy roleplayer with my long-standing tenure in CI as a Brigade Commander, during this time I've been through the ranks in and out but I believe that I have achieved the only thing I dreamed of: an extensive character background
I am currently the lead of IRU, an intelligence unit that has been around for a while now within UK CI and I have been doing well in my own eyes at taking initiatives to interrogation roleplay, spying and espionnage roleplay and also in-depth character development to fit around the norms of a spy; one who can act really well and blend into the SCP Foundation's ranks perfectly without being caught by suspicion or direct cover-sabotage. I also hold the title of ECA and while I am not as active there I maintain my roleplay standard and in the past when I was most active on that role I had provided very good interactions, experiences and roleplay for others, it can also be said for my past as Chief of Security. I believe this all around makes me stand out from others as a dedicated player who is truly ready to create events for the server with a high level of detail and paid attention to what the community really wants when it comes to events.
What I believe I can provide for the server if I were to be a Game Master is that I could be able to provide quality and thought-through events at my best time when I choose to do one, so really always. This can also be applied for roleplay enhancements and large-scale events (unlikely to be done early on); with roleplay enhancements my past as a GM has taught me that these kind of events can truly be really good just like small-scale events in order to add depth to the Foundation Lore in live-action. Think of it like for example, adding yourself as a Logistics character and using comms with Site Administration to discuss something brief but something that just can't be done by a non-GM. This is really what sparks interest.
I also do want to bring this up that, while I do have all these qualities and such; strengths and bare weaknesses that set me apart as a unique candidate - I have also changed. It goes without saying that I did take a hit mental health wise not because of anything related to CN but it did affect my performance and professionalism as a player. I have changed however and as of today I am to not be the same, be a better-standing community member as I already am (though I have an award for most salty, which is heavily biased!). I believe that I've learned from my past mistakes and rule misunderstandings so to that I believe that I can be trusted once more and without a single issue to worry about should I be accepted.
