Hello there! Since my last application got denied due to a lack of activity, which I have to admit was true. But now that I have been a lot more active recently I decided that I want to give it another try and apply for the position of DoR again. My last application received a lot of support which made me very happy and I would love to work together with those people as a Director of Research. Thank you for taking your time to read this application!

Why are you applying for Director of Research?:
The position of DoR is the next step in progression within the Research Department and I personally think that I possess the necessary experience to be a good Director. During my time as Executive I have witnessed multiple directors, some of them became good friends, who were more than ready to answer all of my questions. That is one of many reasons why I have always looked up to them, especially Mirai and Pennington. I would love to be someone, who most of the people within the community can trust. Being a DoR would allow me to help other Researchers better than before. It is also a position that is crucial for RP, not only within the Research Department itself, but also for other Departments such as GENSEC or E-11.

What makes you suitable for Director of Research?:
I have been an Executive for a long time now and gathered a lot of experience in terms of Research and the SCPs that are on-site. As I already mentioned I have witnessed many Directors of Research and assisted multiple of them with their work (Giving my opinion on some documents, organizing some major RP, etc.) I try to help any Researcher as best as I can. My last application for DoR got a lot of positive feedback from a lot of people.
I also received some feedback in Discord telling me that I would be a good fit for this position and that I should apply again once the application cooldown is over.

What are the responsibilities of the Director of Research in RP?:
• Managing the Research Department and choosing/removing the Executives
• Authorizing certain Crosstests if their approval is needed
• Enforcing the Research Policy and ensuring that no Researchers act unethical/mingy
• Creating/maintaining relationships with other Departments
• Assisting/informing any Researchers that ask for help

Please give some lore about your Director of Research character and what storylines they would be involved in:
Executive Researcher Reiner Zephyran can be seen sitting in front of a computer in his office, with another person standing in the shadows
There is a notebook next to the computer, it is opened and a page with the headline «The Valley of Tears» is shown.
Several notes at the edges of the page have been crossed out with only one paragraph still visible: “Crossing the Valley of Tears first takes one through a river of blood.”
Reiner logs into the SCIPNET system with his keycard and opens the archive.

Reiner: If we manage to repair this machine, we could use it to understand what this river of blood or the valley of tears is.
Unknown Voice: Do you really think so? Remember what happened last time we activated it. Maybe we should just leave it in this condition. Or at least get someone who can actually do something in the case this goes wrong.
Reiner: And who do you think would actually support this test? It’s most likely too unethical for the Committee to approve tests like this and would be too high of a risk to be supported by the O5.
Unknown Voice: I think I know someone who would support this test and help fund the upcoming tests. Although he won't help us as an official representative, he still offered to support us with the resources that are available to him.
Reiner: Do you mean C██████ W██████?
Unknown Voice: Yes, W██████.
Reiner: And those resources you mentioned, do you mean ██████-1?
Unknown Voice: Not only them, but he also agreed to fund the materials needed to repair SCP-9384.
Reiner: Are you sure that we can trust C██████?
Unknown Voice: We can’t be 100% sure, but it’s still worth a try.
Reiner: If anything goes wrong it's your fault J██████ keep that in mind.
J██████: In that case we still have a sleeper agent in ██████-1.
Reiner: An agent that won't listen to you, remember? But that’s not important at the moment. We need to find out when C██████ is on site the next time and arrange a meeting with him.
J██████: There is something you should know before we go.
Reiner: What is it?
J██████: I will transfer to another site soon to work on a major project. That means that I won’t be able to work with you in the future. I won’t be able to assist you with any tests on SCP-9384 anymore. I have to leave in a few days, maybe even just a few hours.
Reiner: What? Why? When are you going to return? Without you it will be a lot harder to reach our goal. And it won’t be as much fun. We were so close to finishing our project, why now?
J██████: The O5 requested me specifically. Sadly I am forced to go there and have no other choice. I don’t know when I am going to return, I might be gone forever. Maybe I will be able to visit Site-65 for a short time. I am not sure.
Reiner: So you won’t come with me to meet with C██████?
J██████: I’m afraid not. You will have to do that on your own. I have to go now and collect my stuff.
Reiner: I really hope you return to this site. As I have already said, it won’t be as much fun without you here.
Reiner logs out of the SCIPNET, walks around his desk and pulls out a little picture.
It shows J██████ in front of the GOC AA with a member of the GOC standing next to him.
Reiner: Remember that day?
J██████: Yeah, I do. It was a lot of fun.
Reiner: Yes it was, I want you to have this picture, so you don’t forget me, alright?
J██████: I won’t forget you or anything from this site. Please keep the picture, instead give me the one with you in front of the armory.
Reiner: Oh yeah, I nearly forgot that picture existed, wait a second. Found it! Here, take it.
J██████: Well, I guess this is the end for now. Goodbye my friend.
Reiner: Goodbye J██████. I hope to see you again soon.
Reiner and J██████ leave the Executive’s office to go on their separate missions.
I want to thank @Jimmy Swan for a lot of funny and epic moments! I hope that we can try to join GOC as Researchers again someday.
