---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Experience with staffing [ULX, other servers, etc.]

I do not have prior experience of Staffing on Gmod at this time. This would be a learning experience.

How active are you on the server?

Very Active.

When are you usually available? [Days of Week/Time/Time zone]

I am usually available past 12-1pm CST. This only slightly varies on job schedules.

What do you believe to be your best qualities that can contribute to being a Gamemaker?

I myself am someone who aspires to be a Writer. Coming up with Stories, Campaigns, Characters, name it. I wish to pursue and become proficient in it. So much so I played a minor writing role in a YouTube Animatic Series. Going from that, I have a extreme Love and Dedication to Halo and trying to immerse myself and others in it's Universe. I understand and read the lore, and if I have not read something I ensure I do to improve my greater understanding of the Universe. This also applies to the Custom Lore of the Server too, whether it be basic IFF's or the whole Epsilon Europa System.

I also have a dedication to the server as well, with a willingness to learn and adapt to accomplish and become efficient in what I need to do. I have seen and witnessed many ages which includes the many gamemakers, what idea's were liked, what was unpopular, styles and ways of doing and providing RP. To Generally explain; I Believe I would provide interesting and new stories and RP for Players to discover and react to, Having the Willingness to learn in my GM duty, weather it be Dupes, NPC Spawning, anything. I seek to show humility, know that there are people who have worked hard and far to get to where they are, I would show respect and acknowledge their thoughts, advice or Criticisms and not go behind ones back. I will see this as a experience to show my abilities and also to learn so that I may provide a fun and immersive experience to the server.

What do you plan to do as a Gamemaker?: [50+ Words]

I mainly plan to as mentioned in the above paragraphs to provide New Stories and things for the Detachment to Discover, Fight or whatever path they may choose. Weather it be new Factions or Worlds with Unknown Secrets or Enemies. While often some groups must be prioritized I seek to provide a unbiased and equal experience; not leaving any Factions or Groups out for personal reasons, giving each group a chance to Interact with the Situation at hand. Making each event a complete story in of itself or a fulfilling part of a ongoing story. I want things to feel like you're in the Halo Universe, albeit altered. With good communication provided. For example, if the detachment was sent to a Unknown Uncharted Colony World, I would utilize the environment, Event Characters and other means of presentation to give off the proper feeling of Mystery, uncharted lands, what threat could be lurking here. I wish to experiment and bring each person into the world they are visiting. So generally summarizing, I wish to Experiment and provide a experience that brings the players into the world instead of just another shoot NPC's, blow up planet and leave mission. Make the players feel they are actually apart of something, a progressing universe while being true to Halo.

What 10 Commands do you know about that are in SAM and what exactly do they do?

![un]god: You no longer take damage in this state.
![un]freeze: You are Frozen and Unable to Move or do anything
![un]cloak: This turns you completely invisible and only your name can be seen if close by.
!goto: This teleports you to a specified player
!bring: This teleports a specified player or group of players based on the text given.
!slay: This Kills the even Target(s)
!menu: Opens up the SAM Console Menu.
!setmodel: Gives a Specified Model to a Targetted Player
!hp: Changes a Specified Player(s) HP level.
!respawn: Respawn's given player(s) to their spawn point

What is In character and what is Out of character?:

[In-Character]
IC or In Character means the action, text, place or situation; no matter the size or scale or person is a action that has happened in the Revival Halo Universe, or in other worlds apart of it's "canon" or "timeline" meaning one can ICly respond or react to said thing. Another examples would be IC information, A Terminal found on mission and extracting data would be IC information, you now know that Information as that character and not on any others.

[Out of Character]
OOC or Out of Character are Texts, Actions, Situations or places that are out of the given Universe. Meaning anything done here is not an action of your given character but you outside as that character. Things gained from OOC places cannot be used in IC interactions such as being messaged on the action of another player. OOC is out of the Universe or story.


Do you believe you are able to work with a myriad of different people, some of which may have different opinions than yours?

Yes. The More time you spend on the server, the more people you meet and have to interact and share with. This means differing views, opinions or directions. Even if say I did not like a given person, I or anyone should simply keep it as a personal opinion and continue working professionally to provide entertainment to the server. Gamemakers should be willing to work and compromise with their peers for the betterment of the server.

What do you believe the job of a Gamemaker entails?

On the most basic level they are the entertainers of the server to keep players happy and positive. On a more in-depth level they are to provide RP and be a Builder of the universe. To Provide Roleplay and a experience that feels like Halo that's fun and keeps players immersed and engaged with the server, other players and the World itself.

Give us a full event idea that you have. [3+ Paragraphs]:

Resurrection Detachment is called to the debrief room and is informed of a UNSC Expeditionary force that went dark dark on the Uncharted World dubbed "Logos" 4 Weeks Prior. The World would be a Massive Forest World with areas of plains, lakes and seas. The CENTCOM would present a Audio Distress signal detailing a SOS call from the Marines with it cutting off before mentioning the cause. The CENTCOM tells Resurrection They are tasked to head to the Last Known Coordinates of the Expedition and investigate. Once on the Odyssey the CENTCOM inform the active ONI Personnel they are not the first to investigate. 3 Weeks prior a ONI Strike Force from the "Genesis" Detachment was sent to the location and went dark 2 days ago. Unlike the expeditionary force the ONI were able to transmit information on the threat. Simply called "Unknown Covenant" ONI will be given a special tasking to find the Strike Force and retrieve all sensitive information and bodies. Rescuing Survivors would be a Secondary Objective.

Once in the System Resurrection would prepare on the Odyssey and would give each group their tasking. They would give beforehand a more detailed explanation of the environment landing in a area surrounded by a Large Dense Forest. It will be increasingly difficult to see as Night Approaches. Due to the nature of the Mission the Detachment will stay in large groups. The Bulk of the UNSC will stay together and setup a FOB once on planet. Once the FOB is setup groups of UNSC will be sent out to investigate and scout the area. These groups would be determined by their active Leaders. ONI instead would take their own Pelican to a different location, investigating the last known sight of the ONI team. Finding damaged gear and tacpads and dried blood stains. If they follow the proper trail they would find a Pelican which contains a hastily written warning. "Watch the Forest" with a tacpad with Helmet Footage attached. If watched it would display a Quiet Agent, Peaking out from the side of the Pelican, with another Agent with a Silenced Pistol next to him. After peaking out for the 3rd time Plasma Fire would start coming from the Forest as the Agent is seen taking his tacpad and placing it on the Pelican Seat, the Footage ends once the Helmet is taken off. The Tacpad would also mention a Secret ONI base established in a nearby Cave System. During this time the UNSC would find several small outposts with little signs of life there besides Crates and Left over AR's and Magnums. Notebooks or Notes could be found, detailing simple Marine Banter, Idealistic Explorers and a Letter from a Marines Mother and Sister. They would be ordered to repair and fix the outposts, building a extensive base in the area. One of these Outposts would be a now disabled Communications Center and Engineers would be tasked with repairing it.

The SoS at this time would be tasked with investigating the Forest itself looking for any signs of UNSC Presence in the Forest. In Reality this move would be done believing the SoS would fair better against whatever the Strike Team saw. The Forest would seem almost barren, normal with no signs of life. Although if the SoS pay attention a Energy Sword, Curveblade and Carbine can be found in the Large Dense Trees. Implying a Sangheili Presence at some point. At some point during the search in the forest a Energy Blade can be heard faintly in the distance and if investigated, SoS would find a ONI Agent bruised and battered impaled to a tree with a Energy Sword. Confirming a hostile presence. Small amounts of Cloaked Spec Ops would attack around the SoS, initiating the first combat on the mission.

Around here ONI would reach the Cave and Investigate finding it nearly untouched. They would find the Central Room of the base and discover a Corpse. It would be a Section 1 Agent lying on the floor with a pistol to his side. On him would be a note. "Seal the Base. They are watching. No Extract. Asset Denial. For the Office. Semper Vigilanis" and on the main Terminal would be a file with footage attached. This Footage would show Agents Arriving and Investigating the Area, cutting hours at a time. By the Second Week the Agents discovered Several Crashed Covenant Cruisers, most notably a CCS. According to the Agents the Ships seems to be Years Old. Estimated 10-15. Skipping to the Third Week the Agents believe the Covenant are still present on the planet but all attempts of communication to Command has been failures. They suspect some sort of Jammer. The Team Chooses to enter deep into the Forest to attempt to find the source and ends up being ambushed, losing over half the team. Returning back the Agent theorizes the Covenant must've crashed here during the middle of the war and did not have any means to escape or communications." It would cut to their return and more Agents would be missing. Only 3 remaining. It would cut to them moving trying to find their way back to the Pelican before the Third Agent is suddenly impaled by a Curveblade. The Remaining Two Agents Run and eventually cuts to finding the Pelican. At this point the footage from ealier happens but instead from the perspective of the Second Agent with the Pistol. Agent One tells the other the Pelican was sabotaged and to run to the Base to await extract. He takes his Silenced SMG and tells Agent Two "Semper Vilganis" as Agent Two runs away as Gunfire can be heard. Eventually the Agent Reaches the Base and Seals it. It would cut through the last days of the Third Week, going all to the day prior. Through this Covenant would be outside the Bunker at all times. And Attempts to Contact UNSC Command would fail. One the last day he begins attempting to send a last transmission. Detailing a "Unknown Covenant" Threat and to "Beware". Stating however he believes it will fail. Simply stating "Asset Denial" before the Footage ends.

At this point the combat section would begin. Covenant would assault the SoS and ONI first. Trapping the ONI into defending the Base while SoS retreat from the Forest. Once the SoS escape the Forest UNSC would have been put into defensive positions, watching all sides of the Forest. If ONI, SoS ect investigate any of the Corpses or Bodies they would find the Armor is camouflaged to match the Planets Environment. (Think of Real World Militaries) Regardless of this the Detachment besides ONI would hold the Outposts, slowly being pushed back to the main FOB. With ONI holding the Cave Base. The Covenant would be utilizing basic ground troops, but adapted and very skilled in the given environment. From here forward the outcome is dependent on the defense of the FOB. If Resurrection performs Well and Holds off the Covenant, Airborne Reinforcements Arrive and the Detachment has the choice to pursue the Covenant out of the Outposts and into the Forest, Forcing them into a Ultimate Route. After taking the Forest CENTCOM would order a Extraction. ONI could either be rescued by UNSC or push out themselves. Once Extracted CENTCOM would congratulate the Detachment and inform them they may return in the future to reclaim the Planet for the UNSC. If the Detachment is failing the CENTCOM will order Extraction Immediately, and Informs a Orbital Bombardment of the Area will Commence in 5 minutes. He informs ONI they must push out and return to FOB, or otherwise this will be considered Asset Denial. When everyone is extracted he says they may of lost the battle, but we will return to Finish off what remains of the Covenant Presence soon.

Event idea is nice, long but nice. I know you aspire to write but that is a very linear style of story telling where GMing is very non-linear. It is full of shit that goes wrong or into an inconceivable direction. So just make sure you're not married to a certain outcome.

I fully agree. I did wish to expand abit on varying actions or outcomes. But it was already very long. In a real situation I got to be ready to adjust to what people do. Will keep that with me.
