Age: 28
In what country are you located?: England

Foundation Name (include your regiment and rank if applicable): O5-4 'The Cortex'
Chaos name (include your rank): N/A
Civilian name: N/A
Steam ID: STEAM_0:1:24655601
Do you have a mic?: Yes
What server are you applying for?: SCP=RP UK
Is this the first application you made? If no, link all previous applications:
- First GM Application
Have you received any kicks/bans/warning? and why?:
- Never
Do you have any previous experience as a Gamemaster/Event Manager in a community?:
- A plethora. Allow me to explain:
Discovery Freelancer Roleplay (Space RPG) I ran a faction on this server and created fantastic roleplay scenarios involving various fleets and alien forces. This old game allowed players to create objects in space to which was used for props and even ship editing. Contributed to the mod development as it developed according to the player, leaving my own stamp on this mod nearly 12 years ago. A very fond memory and my first step into roleplaying.
The following was a battle which determined the actual fate of a star system:

World of Warcraft Private Servers allowed me to become insanely creative within the lore of that universe. The specific server I played upon had the world as a building sandbox with your own independent "phases" to which other players could join. I created and DM'd for at most 90 players at once doing various scenarios in the world of Azeroth. Persistent RP phases enabled seemless RP for all to enjoy. Images of my work below.

(Players marching through the blasted lands to battle at the Dark Portal)

Do you have any previous experience with serious roleplay?:
- Yes, as previously stated I have about 12 years of RP experience. I've noted my most memorable ones however.

How many hours can you be on everyday?:
- 2 Hours minimum
Why do you want to become a Gamemaster on our server?:
- After holding no staff or GM rank for over a year, I'm eager to produce and enhance the roleplay on the server for all to enjoy. Being an Overseer once more and starting the -4 Laboratory storyline has lit a fire inside of me to take the next step. I enjoy RP tremendously for the immersion and creativity for all to enjoy.

What do you think you would be able to help us with on the server? Why are you special over the other applicants?:
Due to my extensive past in RP and my track record on the server, I feel I am the most suitable candidate to aid the team in the development of roleplay on the server.

Please List 3 small event ideas (Which would involve at least one side of the server):
UNGOC: "Where do they cross the line?"

- UNGOC receive a tip off by a concerned Citizen in the Pinewood area. Reports of an anomalous individual causing fires in the local town. The Sheriff department will make first contact attempting to ease the individual, however, the UN Assessment teams will soon discover when this individual is under stress it will trigger their pyrotechnic tendencies. An innocent civilian plagued with disastrous abilities, what line will the UN cross, especially in front of the eyes of countless Pinewood Civilians and the watchful eyes of the Foundation and Chaos Insurgency.

Medical Mania: "Create the poison, Sell the cure."
- The medical department will receive a visit from an MC&D medical professional who in their infinite wisdom wishes to sell his medical skillset to the Foundation, for a hefty price. Players must be vigilant of this crafty "salesman" and attempt to discern their true intentions before mishaps start to happen to "sickly" Foundation staff. Coincidence? That's up to you to decide.

Sarkicism forms roots in Pinewood: "Religion is a unifying tool"
- This would involve the UN/CI and External Foundation Departments/MTFs. A small cult following would settle down in Pinewood for the purpose of enhancing their cult. Fake calls for a religious ceremony would be made to which civilians would be enticed to join. External forces should disguise to understand and uncover what is taking place here. If they fail to do so then constructs of flesh will begin to appear across Pinewood to which all forces will be encouraged to engage them. If the Factions involved are unable to determine where these constructs are coming from then they will progressively get stronger/bigger, however, it will be more obvious as to where these sprout from as time progresses. The results of this event entirely come down to player intuition and their espionage RP skills.

Please List an Map change event idea (Involving both sides and the entire server)
Players enjoy the deeper lore and the shady dealings of the Overseer Council and the Chaos Insurgency Cell Command. Not everyone will have the opportunity to walk in this world, Unless we do a one off that they will remember. This map change event would, for a brief time, expose the world of Clearance Level 4/5 and encourage players to apply for roles post-event.

SCP-006
The Overseer Council guard this secret closely at every chance they get. This SCP ensures their continued survival for an indefinite period of time. Having all the power in the world means nothing if you lose it to something out of your control. This secured Site will play host to a full Overseer Council who adjourn for their drinking of the waters to prolong their lifespan. However, the Chaos Insurgency have learnt of this via the fading loyalty of certain MTF Alpha-1 members who quietly caught glimpses of this sacred stream. Cell Command conjures up Operation Shellback to secure large quantities of SCP-006 to be used by the most intelligent and skilled amongst them to outlive the Foundation research and combative teams.
The opening to this map change event will allow players to be split into two forces. The extremely proficient Mobile Task Force Alpha-1 will play escort to the entire Overseer Council who will arrive at the SCP to begin their decadal ritual. Site security forces are of Clearance Level 4 knowledge and are also elite soldiers to protect this SCP. Researchers on Site will endeavour to aid the Overseers in their rejuvenation efforts.
The Chaos Insurgency will send in their most elite units to infiltrate and extrapolate vials and vials of SCP-006. The catch is, they are completely unaware that the Overseer Council is present on Site. This creates the following objective conditions for both sides:

Chaos Insurgency Win Conditions:
- Secure XXXX amount of SCP-006 by transporting it to an exfil zone.
- Wipe out the current Overseer Council, cutting the head off the snake.

Foundation Personnel Win Conditions:
- Hold SCP-006 for XXXX amount of time and ensure the Chaos Insurgency are cut off from the area.
- All thirteen of the Overseers are extracted safely out of the Facility after all of them consuming SCP-006.

List an example mission for each of the following:
O-1: The Committee calls an emergency meeting to conduct their vote on the removal of an Overseer (Non-Player). Primary Action is agreed upon for this specific Overseer and Omega-1 are deployed to a Blacksite in a neighbouring area. (GM Plane). MTF Alpha-1 will be on standby in this area and MTF Omega-1 must use the element of surprise and espionage to which they are notorious for to assassinate this Overseer. Ideally this plays out via infiltration and espionage, however combat may occur.

A-1: Whispers of the Chaos Insurgency attempting to extract a traitorous Alpha-1 member from the Site echo to their ears. MTF Alpha-1 must use their skills and subversion tactics to isolate and identify the traitor and flush out the disguised CI extraction team. The Insurgency will leave clues across the Site to guide this traitor to a rendezvous point and Alpha-1 must intercept.
Nu-7: MTF Nu-7 brings the Hammer down on a local Chaos Insurgency Cell. The Department of External affairs locates not too far from the Pinewood area a supply route which the Chaos Insurgency uses to fuel their attacks on Site-65. MTF Nu-7 are tasked with the assistance of the DEA to assault and destroy this compound. It will be heavily defended so subversion tactics would be recommended via briefing.
E-11: MTF Epsillon-11 are the most feared unit to combat SCP breaches on Sites that cannot contain their charged SCPs. To encourage this image on Site-65, E-11 will be dispatched into a failing Site to repel and re-contain breaches anomalies. This Site however, hosts SCP-354 'The Red Pool'. E-11's task will be to recapture the small Site and get the facility operational again. Further exploration into this anomaly is not advised....
CI: Cell Command, frustrated at their efforts to not destroy Site-65, conjure in the most heinous strategies to turn Pinewood into a warzone. Cell Command issues their espionage teams to take the disguises of Foundation personnel and commit war crimes in Pinewood. This in turn will actively challenge the UN x Foundation treaty to which the DEA will have to respond heavily to counter this attempt to fracture relations. An event like this can go either way depending on the players. Chaos Insurgency players would act the hero and repel the Foundation to further warp the views of the locals.
Foundation Staff: An anomalous shopkeeper pays the Site a visit to sell people his "wares". The catch is, he does not accept local currency, any currency for that matter. The shop keep deals in favours. Foundation Operatives will attend the Site after some time passes to advise that SCP-738 was last seen in the area. Players will be granted various deals by SCP-738. Site-65's reaction to this SCP will determine the response by external Foundation Operatives. Do a deal with the devil.

+Support - Potential is there.

Small Event 1 (The GOC Try Not To Get Cancelled One)
  • Interesting concept.
  • Definitely seems like a fun small interactive event.
  • The minge nature of most civilian players may undermine the "line" as you put it. Foundation SOPs and CI do not really take much care of UN activities in Pinewood as it currently stands.
  • Story and lorebuilding could definitely be more developed.
Small Event 2 (The Suspect Doctor One)
  • Again, interesting concept.
  • Nice to see the medical department getting some attention.
  • Medical contracting isn't exactly MC&D's... thing? They're hyper-rich people who sell anomalous objects, as opposed to offering services.
Small Event 3 (The Flesh Cult One)
  • It's nice to see a somewhat developed story for this one, however "enhance their cult" is very vague.
  • Attempting to involve the civilians is great,however the minge nature of civilian players alos becomes an issue here.
  • I do like the idea of allowing players to determine the outcome of the event, however an improvised ending is not commonly a good one.
  • Would love to see the planned implementations of SK-BIO organisms in this idea.
  • Lorebuilding.
Map Change Event (The SCP-006 One)
  • This doesn't really seem like a map change event (but then again, neither was the one in my app)
  • Objective missions for CI are great fun.
  • For an event that should aim to include as much of the server as possible, it seems very limited in that regard.
  • I don't think that having researchers being involved with an SCP that information regarding it is restricted to O5 makes much sense.
O-1's Mission (The O5 Assassination One)
  • Would love to have more information regarding the O5 and why EC want to get him.
  • Great event idea.
A-1's Mission (The Mole One)
  • Another great idea.
Nu-7's Mission (The Han Solo-style Supply Train Thing One)
  • Again good.
E-11's Mission (The Lore Accurate One)
  • This is definitely one of my favourites one here.
CI's Mission (The PR Stunt One)
  • This is... brilliant.
  • Perfectly captures the idea that CI are Freedom Fighters, when in reality they are Terrorists.
Foundation Staff's Mission (Another SCP-738 One)
  • Definitely one of the more interesting SCP-738 ideas that I have seen.
  • Doesnt seem like this would work with how SCP-738 works. I would recommend creating a custom SCP for this.
Good luck Darth Vader!

probably more experienced than half the GMs from the looks of it
all of the events sound very cool
i like that most of these events are cross-faction & unique rather than a mysterious man with superpowers in the facility

some of them seem quite closed off (ie not many people interact in them, mainly the map change), but they still sound very interesting and would play out well
map change event isn't really worthy of a map change (but would work as a fun major event)


as i've said all these events sound really fun, if/when you get into gm team i'd love to see how they play out

Broda is simply one of the best if not the best roleplayer(s) in the server. His event ideas are great and he would be a good asset in the gamemaster team. Godbless and good luck!

Not going to break down the events as Millzy already did that, my concerns are the same as well as what Bill said.

Best of luck
