1. Forum name of the owner:
@The Core
2. What exactly are you requesting?
100% On Liberty Dreadnought with Core/Codename Turrets with Core|ID & IFF
3. Exact name, identification and affiliation of the character:
Currently: "Illustrious" LN ID/IFF
To be, if SRP is approved: Core|WV-Illustrious Core| OF ID/IFF
No access to "foreign" faction equipment is requested. No special ID lines.
Note: Ship will be shared with Core| High Command, again, if approved.
4. Why is this request necessary for the continuation of this character's roleplay?
While the ship exist in game, and has existed for the past five years or so as an LN ID ship, it can no longer function properly without Core/ID IFF.
Initially, this SRP was put on ice, because no valuable progression options were present, however, with the Core now in control of Gammu, a new arc was made available.
It is meant to be a mobile base of operations for AReS-N, a brand new Core AI with Gammu tech integrated into it. No human crew onboard, everything is to be ran by automated systems and remote drones.This, in turn, required a complete conversion of the ship, meaning most of the Liberty tech was ripped out anyways and replaced with Core tech. The AI itself has a personality algorithm loosely based on former Core Guildmaster Jack Daniels. (Killed off mainly because I felt that name was so inappropriate.) With this new outcome, AReS-N's entire processing power is located on the Illustrious, effectively making the ship and character one and the same. There is a functional CIC on board, in case a human captain and/or a research team is to take control of the vessel for the purpose of exprimentation. Example: Core HC members. For this sole purpose, a secondary "caretaker"AI has been left operational on the Illustrious.
All this would be impossible, of course, if the ship is at 10% power. It will be unplayable in game and therefore, irrelevant and will be eventually abbandoned. And since this character is bound to ship itself, progressing the story for both it and the ship wouldn't be an option without ingame presence.
5. What short-term and long-term goals are you planning to achieve on this character?
Short term - short term's already been done in the RP threads it was involved in. It was captured from infectees, repaired and converted to be ran by an AI with minimal to no biological crew. Everything is handled by remote drones and automation.
Long term - to establish it as the primary "testing field" for Core| AI ship tech, including captured Gammu AI tech. (Not actual equipment, just AI tech and know-how.) Basically, the foundation for Core and APM's AI research and live-field experimentation.
7. Provide a cliffnote/summary for the links provided above.
1: How the ship came into the possesion of the Core. - It was a joint project, in which I included Core| members and a mercenary.
2: Repairing the damages caused by previous events. - Not a very complex operation, mostly there to stimulate people to log their APM ships.
3: Illustrious as a fully automated AI ran vessel ran by a failed expriement of an AI. - An attempt to save the life of former Guildmaster Jack Daniels gone wrong.
4: Background story of Jack Daniels. The person AReS-N, the new "captain" of the Illustrious, has been based on. - Not that relative to ship itself, but rather it's pilot.
8. How long has this character been building its backstory?
The story arc itself has began on 24.02.2023. This ship itself has been on the server for around five years (estimated.)
