Kallisti here, ladies and gentlemen,

Whew, finally I got here. That's quite a mess what's going on around Gran Canaria, haven't seen such in my life, hermanos and comrades hunting down each other and the local populace in the name of liberating them from the other, that's not the peaceful planet I have born on and been living so far.

As you see, to look for a great hub of other Zoner fella's to my liking, I could either go fly out into the wild Omicrons, or the sacred land... ahem, I mean, the sacred space of Baffin. Weird rumors come from the Omicrons about a more weird group calling themselves Zoners and then acting quite the opposite, so as you see, I'm here. And while I'm already here, I thought I may try my luck and join you popes and... umm, popettes... (is that even a word?)

So... yeah, the questionnaire...

-Do you know what you want to roleplay as a Temporary Autonomous Zoner? (The type here : trader, templar, etc...)

Trader, explorer, causer of troubles who also get away with it... can I?

-Do you have a character in mind in which you would like to roleplay? If so, tell us the history and general Roleplay. (Here you explain the character background/history, his mindset, everything related to his story. If you don't have any character in mind, no need to answer anything here)

I don't think I am a good actor and I don't want to fake anybody, so I think the best is just to act as myself. Just like pretty much the guy I've been on Gran Canaria, the one who avoids the bigger troubles.

-Do you have a recommendation from a TAZ? If so, name them. (Note: This is a requirement)

Carl Fatal
Sabre
(probably others too...)

-Will you follow TAZ roleplay guidelines?

Of course.

-What is your experience? When did you join Discovery?

2011 September

-Have you roleplayed TAZ before?

Nope.

-Are you in other factions? If so, name them.

[C]ouncil
Gallic Royal Navy

-What will be your level of involvement in TAZ?

Don't know, what comes, but it sure won't be my main faction.


Zoner Lore :

-According to you, what is a Zoner? (Answer with your own words. No concise answer please. No copy pasta)

Your regular folk, who got fed up with being told what to do, how to do, pay for this, pay for that, got fed up with governmental control, bureaucracy, and basically the negative things you can name in a house, who got fed up but did not revolt, rather leave to start their lives anew. Your grey mouse hiding in the corner, unnoticed by anybody, not disturbing anything, therefor not being disturbed by anything. Your "friend-of-everybody" trader from the edge of civilization, hauling supplies around in the harshest environments, who bought his survival and well being with things such as money, cargo, regular shipments, deeds, favors. Your wise diplomat, reaching their goals with words, and resorting to physical harm only in self defense and in last resort, talking his way out of brawls and earning his connections through well-placed words.

Trader, diplomat, pacifist, or just a guy making a living far out from the crowded houses... the palette is colorful... and as I see, religious folks seem to fit on it as well.

-Describe the main asset of a Zoner as compared to others? (Answer with your own words. No concise answer please. No copy pasta)

Mouth. If used well, it can save lives. Yours, others, you just need to know what to say, when to say, how to say, to whom to say, if you master these things, you will know how to have mutual trade pacts with arch enemies about which they know and still remain neutral to both. (Not sure if possible.)

-What is the most important thing for a Zoner in the Sirian community? (Answer with your own words. No concise answer please. No copy pasta)

Be ourselves. Be Zoners. Be helpful of the community and in return it will be helpful to us. Aid and earn where we can. If you do good deeds, people will not forget it... who do, well, leave that guy alone then...

I hope my answers are fine. May Eris guide your decisive minds.

Tei Kallistei Andrew Koetzer,

You made it clear you are worthy of the highly respected robes of the Temporary Autonomous Zoners. After your contact on private channels I am convinced of this. I will sent you the keys for the Fnord communication channel and you are expected on Pueblo Bonito where a ceremonial will take place to babtise you as a Pope of the Temporary Autonomous Zoners.

You can expect a certain amount of bruising due to the seasonally low head room and high coffee table marks.

Hello mates,


I think i should start with a short introduction of myself. Well, my name is Jason McMillan. I am a Zoner, such as you although i do not wear those 'robes' you wear. I am 25 years old. I am really willing to learn your ways as i have told one of your pilots recently.

Now, i shall give you my questionnare as you have requested of me.



Do you know what you want to roleplay as a Temporary Autonomous Zoner? (The type here : trader, templar, etc...)

I myself am a kind of researcher. I am eager to explore and search for items i am unfamiliar with and i love to search for any scientific use for such items. This is why i often am a target for Outcasts.

-Do you have a character in mind in which you would like to roleplay? If so, tell us the history and general Roleplay. (Here you explain the character background/history, his mindset, everything related to his story. If you don't have any character in mind, no need to answer anything here)

I recently started with my character. His history is a quite lengthy one so i will give you a brief description of it. Jason McMillan was born on Java station. He was the son of Lisa McMillan and John McMillan. They both were combat pilots for the Independent Miners Guild. He spent his childhood quite lonely because his parents often were gone to fight Outcasts or to protect the IMG's interests. So he spent his time with his grandpa: A retired miner. He told him al kinds of stories about his mining experiences and his encounters with pirates. When Jason was 18 years old, his parents got killed by Outcasts. Ever since that he had hated them for it. This explains his quite amount of hostility towards them.

Jasons minset is that he approaches all situation with the same attitude. He tries to be friendly with everything and he keeps his fingers of the trigger. But he can defend himself when needed. He is no fan of violence and tries to stay on the friendly non violent terms with everyone as best as he can.


This is about all i have tought of at this moment.


-Do you have a recommendation from a TAZ? If so, name them. (Note: This is a requirement)

No i do not, unfortunately.

-Will you follow TAZ roleplay guidelines?
I will. I will have to learn some about their roleplay though.

-What is your experience? When did you join Discovery?

I joined back in 2012. So i got quite the experience. I am very good at roleplaying. At least that is what some say of me.

-Have you roleplayed TAZ before?

No sir, i have not.

-Are you in other factions? If so, name them.

No i am not. I get rejected because i do not have skype most times.

-What will be your level of involvement in TAZ?

Depends on how many times i think of playing discovery. I only have one char so when i do i always play that one.

-According to you, what is a Zoner? (Answer with your own words. No concise answer please. No copy pasta)

A zoner is someone who does not agree (or does but does not want to be under control of) the authority the Houses lay over their citizens. Thus they choose to live independently of the houses, mostly outside in the dangerous Border and Edge worlds. He has a free set of mind and does not like to be ordered around like the ordinary military unit of the Houses.

-Describe the main asset of a Zoner as compared to others? (Answer with your own words. No concise answer please. No copy pasta)

His independency, his words, and when there is nothing left to do about it, his guns. (which i tend to not use at all) When he can he avoids a conflict. Zoners are a peacefull folk so they dont engage in fightings when they can. *He hopes the Zoner Alliance didnt see this*

-What is the most important thing for a Zoner in the Sirian community? (Answer with your own words. No concise answer please. No copy pasta)

Himself, and the others around him. He does not care for wealth as much as others but he cares more for the wellfare and health of others and himself.





As it seems this was the entire application questionnare, I hope my answers satisfy you and may Eris guide your decision.

Good luck out there and i hope to hear from you soon.

Regards,

Jason McMillan

This Galaxy is vast; its wonders and beauty are almost unfathomable. But the galaxy also hides dark secrets, some of which have lain dormant since the beginning of time itself. There is a danger in secrets, both in seeking and in knowing. Some things are meant to be hidden from view. Some mysteries defy understanding, and sometimes even the things we think we know are untrue. Some secrets should remain untouched.
