Past experiences as a Game Master: [Optional] None. But Staff experience: DRP S. Mod, SWRP S. Mod.

Why should we choose you over other applicants? [minimum 2 paragraphs]

Being a staff member on DRP and SWRP has taught me a great deal. It taught me to roll with the punches. A way that could help with being a GM is if an event doesn't go my way, I will hold my temper and adapt to the scenario. Another reason is that I know this community. I know what types of events the players want, and what events are the most enjoyable for the player base. I see myself including lore into several different events I have in mind. I know a ton of lore on Star wars and I believe that having that knowledge makes me stand out more than other applicants. 

I've always been level headed in my daily life no matter what. Normally don't get mad too easily and I'm a very understanding person. I believe these traits will help me if an event doesn't go my way. Now with the server being without a SA, I feel like I can help contribute a lot during this time on the server. I'd like to be one of the Staff Members who doesn't sit around hoping for things to change. I want to make that change and help get this server back on its feet. I've never been one to sit around and wait for things to change. I've always wanted to get up and do things myself no questions asked.

Another reason you could choose me is that I'm active at low population hours. I'm normally on late nights and would love to run events for the players dedicated enough to be on at that time. I also believe that me being up late, I could provide fun events for people in other time zones. This will keep the EU players involved and hopefully keep them active during these low pop times. 

Have you ever been banned or punished on any server? If so, Include details: A few warnings here and there on DRP. But other than that, nothing severe. 

How much time do you have to contribute to the role?: Several hours a day.

In your own words, what  are the responsibilities of a Gamemaster?: In my own words, the responsibilities of a Gamemaster is to provide fun RP scenarios for the players online at that time. Gamemasters are there to run fun, helpful, and lore filled events to keep the server interesting. Another responsibility is to involve all battalions in events. Not letting one battalion do nothing in an event. To sum it up, make a fun RP environment for all players to enjoy.

 Describe how you would contribute to RP as a part of the Gamemaster team: One of the ways I could contribute greatly to the GM team is through my activity. I'm on most of the day, trying to keep my peers interested in the server. I do this by doing Passive RP in the Medbay, with speeders, or just patrols. I believe I could contribute a better role as a GM than just being a player trying to keep people online. Another way is that I am a fast learner and am able to adapt to scenarios fast. I believe these traits will help me if I become a GM. 

Explain your single most creative idea for contributing to the RP environment of the server: I want to play out multiple back to back events, spread out by a day or two that pick up where the last one left off. I want to make new players feel at home and give them an experience like they've never had. I wish to provide lore-based, fun, active, and exciting events to GG SWRP. 

Please list and explain 5 unique event ideas of any scale: [Be sure to include any additional context that may be necessary to your explanation]

1.   Rescue Team (Similar to the episode "The Bad Batch" in Season 7 of TCW)

A distress signal is sent from OP Bravo on the planet of Anaxes. The signal is coming from a CT who was reported MIA several days before. The Anaxes station calls 91st and 41st to meet at Main Hangar Bay where they will be briefed on their recon mission to OP Bravo. The naval tells them the following: "You will be sent to OP Bravo on speeder bikes to patrol the area and scout the inside of the facility. You are not clear to engage, if you see any hostiles you report back to base and RTB, Understood?" The recon squad is sent out to OP Bravo and upon arriving they see a huge squadron of droids guarding the outside of the facility, as well as a few Vulture Droids on standby within the walls of the OP. The Recon squad uses their comms to report to Command that there are several droids as well as vultures. The naval tells them to RTB and calls 501st and 104th to MHB for a special mission. The naval tells them the following: "You are going to be a strike team to infiltrate OP Bravo and find what is inside. Comms in when you arrive and we'll give you the go-ahead to breach inside. Expect the worst here gentlemen. Dismissed." The strike team is sent out to OP Bravo, on arrival they get the call to bust inside. 501st's job is to clear the droids while 104th breaches the interior of the facility and finds out what was in there. They find the CT they got the distress signal from in a bacta tank in critical condition. They Comms it in and a LAAT comes in to pick them up. Medics are called to the medbay on arrival and surgery is done on the CT. 

2.   Assassination

(The Bounty Hunter will be handpicked for someone who knows how to RP well) A bounty hunter was hired by the ominous Count Dooku to breach the Anaxes station silently and take one of the ADM's dead or alive. The whole Anaxes station is called to Main Hangar Bay for an equipment inspection. The Bounty Hunter sneaks in through Hangar Bay 2 while the Anaxes station is busy in MHB. The bounty hunter slips into a corner on the 3rd floor and awaits for the ADM to be done with the inspection. When the inspection is done, the ADM heads to his office to finish some work. The Bounty Hunter, before CG returns to guard his office, slips in and takes him as a hostage. Takes his Comms and any weapons on him. He escapes through the door that leads to MHB. The Bounty Hunter makes a run for a nearby speeder on base. As he's running he is told to put his weapons down and leave the ADM. He then stands behind the ADM basically using him as a shield. 

Now from here, this event could go a few different ways. The players have a few options:

A.   They let the Bounty Hunter go on a speeder to save their ADM, and make this a long event hunting the Bounty Hunter down.

B.   They send snipers up to the ridges to snipe the Bounty Hunter before he can injure the ADM

C.   (Dumb Option) All open fire upon the Bounty Hunter endangering the ADM's life and most likely killing him.

A Outcome: The Bounty Hunter takes the ADM to OP Zulu where he awaits a CIS Frigate to come and pick him up. All available troops meet at the front gate and begin breaching all OBJ's searching for their ADM. They find the Bounty Hunter at OP Zulu just as the CIS Frigate arrives on Anaxes. They bust through several squadrons of droids and several vulture droids. They make it to the ADM uninjured and with the Bounty Hunter down. The CIS Frigate retreats and they're all called to a DB.

B Outcome: (Simple one) The bounty hunter is taken down by the snipers and the ADM is saved without being injured. Everything goes back to normal. 

C Outcome: The ADM is most likely dead or severely wounded. If he is injured, he is taken to the Medbay and we have the best MedRPers perform surgery and attempt to save his life. Or, the ADM died in the crossfire before being able to get medical attention.

3.   Antlion Infestation.

The Anaxes station receives weird signals from the Crystal Caves. They send responses back to the Clones who are deployed there with no response. They are expecting the worst. The Anaxes Station calls 91st and 41st to go on foot to the Crystal Caves to find out what is going on. They arrive at the caves and proceed with caution expecting waves of Droids to pop out. They arrive at the main area in the caves and they see waves and waves of Antlions. They quickly run out of the cave and call for reinforcements. 501st and 212th are then sent to the caves to aid 41st and 91st on their mission. They then gear up and breach into the Cave. They bust in and take out the Antlions at alarming speeds. They find several wounded Clones and RTB to get them medical treatment. 

4.   Battle of Kachirho (Kashyyyk)

The 34th battlegroup is sent to Kashyyyk to halt all CIS from the planet. The CIS forces are making daring attempts to take the planet of Kashyyyk because they want to be in control of the hyperspace junction. The 34th battlegroup arrives on the planet and begins speaking to the leader of the Wookies. (AKA a GM RPing as the Chewbacca class). They call all CDR's and Officers to a meeting to discuss their current progress in holding back the CIS forces. The Wookie army is slim, but the clone reinforcements should give them the extra push to get rid of the CIS from Kashyyyk for good. The 34th battlegroup takes cover in the buildings on the trees and attempts to hold back waves and waves of CIS forces. They see a big opening for them to take and they send all units to the W side of the beach and they make one huge push to take the CIS forces position. Their attempt fails and they call for all forces to retreat and regroup. As they're discussing a battle plan, 2 MTT's are in full pursuit and heading towards the Clones. The 327th swiftly hops in their tanks and destroys the MTT's before it wipes out all the troops.

The CIS is attempting to make one huge push on the Clones. Sending in several vultures, MTT's and huge waves of droids. They're forced to retreat into the woods behind them. Again they regroup and decide to play the offensive and run at the droids head-on. 327th takes the tanks in front of all other troops and begins clearing the waves of droids. 501st and 212th are ordered to fire on the vultures overhead. They bust through waves of droids and make it to the other side of the beach. The battle is won and the 34th battlegroup returns to Anaxes and holds a DB to congratulate the Clones for their hard-fought battle.

5.   Venator Escort 

The 34th battlegroup is called to escort a high valued Senator (Padme Amidala) safely to her home planet of Naboo after numerous assassination attempts on her life. While on the Venator a group of bounty hunters latch onto the Venator and board the ship (Bossk, Assassination Droid, and Dengar) They board and begin killing off numerous Clones while making their way to the deck of the Venator. (Might need to give them a lot of HP). As Dengar and Bossk fight their way to the deck, the assassination droid breaks off from the group and makes his way to the Generator. He plants a few detonators, walks out and blows it. 104th and 327th are sent to the fire fight and see what they can salvage from the generator that is set ablaze. Meanwhile, Dengar and Bossk make it to the entrance of the deck. The 501st is sent up to flank the two bounty hunters. The 501st opens fire upon them while the Assassin droid comes up behind the 501st and opens fire as well. With the 501st troops getting thinned out they Comms in for reinforcements. 212th are quick to react and head up to the floor to aid the 501st. The 3 bounty hunters are apprehended. They're all taken to the brig to be interrogated. As they were being captured Bossk sent a distress signal to a nearby CIS fleet. Out of nowhere 3 CIS Frigates fly out of hyperspace and deploy several vultures. The 34th battlegroup responds quickly by deploying ARC-170's to apprehend the Vultures before they can do any damage. A big dog fight breaks out before the CIS sends in boarding ships that are swiftly deployed to MHB. Droids flood MHB and the 91st and 41st react quickly to destroy all those clankers. They succeed in destroying the clankers but in all of the mayhem going on, Dengar and Bossk escape the Venator on their ship.

Thanks so much for reading my application

+1, Great application, I like the detail and the structure. You will make a great gamemaster you're dedicated and active on the server as-well.

[AlexConway 1,157]

Your application is solid, and the events are thought-out. I'm worried about your activity, that is my concerning part. I need reliable people on the Gamemaster Team.

[Snapper 36]

Huge +1

Eli has shown time and time again that he’s dedicated to the server. Whether it was stepping up while 41st had no commander, to leading and doing everything to keep the 41st stable, to taking the closure of the 41st in stride, he has consistently shown that he puts what’s best for the server over what’s best for himself.  He would make a great addition to the GM team.

Since I am also a GM who’s active later, having another GM at those times would allow us to work together and creat quality events later in the night. I agree with what @Alex Conway said about actively, but I think Eli is the type of person to rise to the challenge and go above and beyond. 

[special 318]

+1 The application is well written. You are a very trusted staff member and I know you can fulfill the role as a gamemaster perfectly. 

[AlexConway 1,157]

+1 - I'd be more than happy to have you apart of the GM Team. You'd be someone I would feel can competent well though out events. The decision is up to @Garnet - but you'd be a very good fit.

[Nutter 15,181]

Accepted

Welcome to the Gamemasters team, I have let you skip past the training phase as I feel you're adequate enough at this point to not have to go through that.
