Why are you applying for Executive Researcher?

-I am eager to take on greater responsibility in overseeing experiments, ensuring they are carried out effectively and with attention to detail. By strengthening processes and supporting collaboration within The Research department, I aim to help the Research Department thrive and steadily expand into new areas across the site. My focus will be on building a strong foundation, encouraging innovation, and creating opportunities for gradual growth that benefit both the department and its Researchers.

What makes you suitable for Executive Researcher?:

- As a researcher, I’ve always taken time to support colleagues across the Research Department, helping ensure projects run smoothly and effectively. Right now, what the department needs most is fresh, creative ideas — something I have plenty of and am ready to contribute to strengthen our work and encourage steady growth.
  • Encourage researchers to share and develop creative ideas that strengthen research projects
  • Provide a supportive environment where innovation can thrive across the department
  • Contribute my own fresh ideas to help the Research Department expand steadily into new areas
  • Focus on practical, achievable improvements that build a strong foundation for growth
How many excellent-graded documents have you written? What makes a document excellent?

Currently, I hold no documents graded as Excellent, though I have written many. What truly makes a document Excellent is the following:
  • Grammar – ensuring accuracy and professionalism in writing
  • Punctuation – providing clarity and flow to the text
  • Imagery – using vivid and relevant examples or descriptions to engage the reader
  • Formatting – presenting information in a structured, organized, and visually accessible way
A document does not need to be lengthy to be considered good. Instead, it should be easy to read, understandable, and contain information that is clear and strong enough for anyone to grasp.
What are the responsibilities of the Executive Researcher in RP?:

Responsibilities in RP are as follows:

  • Onboarding junior researchers and guiding them into their roles
  • Helping the Research Department with planned tests and documents
  • Ensuring effective communication between departments
  • Approving or denying proposed experiments based on safety and ethical standards
  • Ensuring that RSD members can do testing without any Issues

Please give some lore about your Executive Researcher character and what storylines they would be involved in:

Dr. John Old Man grew up in a fog‑covered town marked by radio towers, where he developed an early habit of listening for patterns in static. As a child, he sketched thresholds and boundaries— doorways, shadows, and seams between environments—that later became the foundation of his professional focus. He studied physics privately and apprenticed under a cartographer who believed maps retained memory of their travelers. By thirty, he was working at the Institute for Applied Topology; by forty, his unconventional publications had earned him both ridicule and reluctant respect. The designation “Old Man” became standard among colleagues, reflecting his persistence and eccentricity.

Storylines:

* Tests that involve dimensional travel, combining two dimension to access a new one
* Tests that involve Reality bending, changing SCP’s that are replicable into something new or rather beneficial.
* 008 Tests to give consciousness to the SCP-008-2 Instances, or rather change the form of 008
* Interdimensional watchers, Project {KEYHOLE}, The art of surveillance

Always has new and refreshing test ideas and brings along a fun environment for new researchers. I've seen this man conduct a test with countless Jrs watching and each and every one of them seem engaged.
