The Core Recruitment

[Tenacity]

InRP Form Pilot Name: Marcus Mekal Pilot Age: 32 Pilot Region, House or Location of Origin: Libertonian/Bretonian Are You Applying for The Core Paramilitary, or our AP Manufacturing Sub-Divison?: Paramilitary Previous Jobs/Roles/Experience: Liberty Navy (Flight Academy), Bounty Hunter's Guild Detailed Background, One Paragraph or So (the more we can learn about you, the better): My father worked for the LSF, and I joined the Liberty Navy to follow that tradition, but to be perfectly honest here, I didnt get far; I had... disagreements... with my instructors, I might've brought their mothers into it, apparently that kind of thing doesnt take you far in the Navy. After dropping out of West Point, I found work with the Bounty Hunter's Guild and have been flying for them ever since. I've done freelance work, been a hired gun, convoy escort, you name it. Why do you want to join The Core/APM?: I found out about the Core through some old guild contacts, they said you're doing some kind of important work out here, fighting terrorists and aliens instead of just petty thieves and drug runners. I want in on that action, and I hear there's some real nice bleeding-edge tech involved too. Recite Our Motto: Pain is temporary, Glory is forever. Not too much different from the guild, though it was always "credits are forever" to them. OoRP Form How long have you been playing Freelancer Discovery for?: 10+ years Have you ever played a Core character before? Have you read the lore of The Core? Do you know what The Core is?: I've only recently made a core character, but I used to play (and still do) on the opposite side of things, so I've seen them from the outside in through the eyes of the Order and Nomads. How familiar are you with the Edge Worlds?: A lot has changed in the past couple of years while I was absent from the server, but I'm getting re-acquianted with them pretty quickly. I've always spent more time in the edge worlds than anywhere else in disco, so my knowledge of them is pretty spot on. How would you rate your RP skills out of 10?: Ingame, probably a 7 or 8. On the forums a 10. I'm an excellent writer, but sometimes I dont improvise quite so well on the fly as I would like, though writing character backgrounds, stories, and personalities out on the forums often helps me sort in my head what they'd act like in live encounters. How would you rate your PvP skills out of 10? What ship-types are you good in?: 6 or 7 on the pvp skills, though it depends on the situation. In the past, I mostly used a Geb carrier for the order and did relatively well in it, though not amazing. However, I've always been relatively good in gunboats and bombers (I primarily flew a bomber for the Keepers all those years ago). Since my return to discovery, I'm finding that my skills are best suited to Gunboats, and the occasional SHF. My Core character currently has an Pleco Gunboat, and would like to keep it. Why do you want to join the The Core?: I used to be a hardcore indie player, either making my own unofficial factions and working with the officials (as in the case of the Order) or just staying on my own. Times have changed though, and I've changed with them; I've come to realize that it's quite invaluable to have the resources of a faction to draw on, particularly other players - flying with a group is always more fun and more rewarding than flying alone, no matter what ship you're in or what you're doing. Do you already own a Core ship? If yes, what ship(s) is it?: Yes, a Pleco Gunboat. What Country and/or Time Zone do you operate in?: USA/San Antonio, GMT -5 I believe What is your Discord ID (mandatory)?: TenacityDGC What is your Skype (optional)?: TenacityDGC, though I dont use it anymore
