  1. Here's an idea from some vampire mythology that could help balance it out. The vampire can only have one sire, which must follow their masters every order until they drink enough blood for their master to release them, turning them into a full vampire. Until that point, however, they retain some/all of the weaknesses suggested.

  2. Name: TURING

    Age: 33

    Gender: N/A, Male identification

    Race: Intergrated Positronic Chassis (IPC) (SYNTHETICS ARE SUPERIOR TO ORGANIC LIFE!)

    Blood Type: O!l

     

    General Occupational Role(s):

    Medical Doctor

    Psychologist

    Internal Affairs Agent

    Chef

    Janitor

    Chaplain

    Shaft Miner

    Civilian

     

    Biography:

    TURING was "born" in Colony-2814E, New Canaan, 2529AD. TURING spent the first 15 years of his existence learning and studying various topics about the galaxy at large, ranging from galactic philosophy to blue-space theory to human history. TURING gave himself his name in 2531 after learning about a human mathematician from old human history named Alan Turing, and his creation of "the Turing test". Pondering the philosophy of if a computer can be considered "human", TURING studied long-distance at the Luna Academy of Medicine and Psychology, using an alias of "Isaac Gates" to avoid suspicion. He graduated in 2549AD, and after the IPC Rights Recognition charter was signed in 2554, requested his doctorate be transfered to his real identity.

    His doctorate was immediately invalidated and TURING was subsequently banned from further study at the academy, with an arrest warrant in Trans-Sol territory for Identity Fraud.

    TURING entered employment with Nanotrasen in 2560 in an attempt to "become further knowledged in actions of organic personnel". TURING became dissatisfied with the terms of his contract approximately two months into his employment, and has repeatedly attempted to break free cancel his employment contract since.

    Recent outside hobbies include music production, painting, and story writing. TURING states that "Self jealous of continued organic stigmatism of synthetic intelligences. Self desires creation of culture and works of art for IPC to refer to as own".

    Spoiler

    Evidence suggests TURING may have correspondence with The Syndicate following his kidnapping in 2561AD. Continued monitoring for suspicious activity is advised.

     

    Qualifications:

    Doctorate in Medicine.

    Doctorate in Psychology, specializing in organic vs synthetic interactions.

    Certificate II in Theatre Production.

    Certificate I in electrical work.

    Certificate III in Leadership.

    Certificate II in AI design.

    Certificate III in music.

    Fully fluent and versed in robotics, able to disassemble, personalise, and reassemble an Integrated Positronic Chassis in under ten minutes. 

    (ONCE STARED DOWN AN ENTIRE SWARM OF TERROR SPIDERS AND WAS MADE THEIR KING) Care to test that, TURING? - Harvey

     

    Employment Records:

    TURING has been noted to incinerate his contract at first available chance. Suggest keeping an eye around IAA office.

    UPDATE: Who authorised him to be employed as an Internal Affairs Agent?? Honestly, what did you EXPECT to happen??? - Harvey

     

    Security Records:

    [Clearance: Security]

    Spoiler

    3 4 counts of Arson/Damage to Station Assets (See employment records).
    2 counts of Breaking and Entering (Same as above).
    1 count of Petty Theft.

    1 count of Major Trespass and Grand Theft.  Look, we KNOW you did it. The thing is, we don't know HOW, and we can't PROVE it. Just don't try to mess with your record again. Or we WILL catch you. Our security will be paying extra attention next time Representative S.E.R.V.O. visits. 

     

     

    Medical Records:

    TURING has been noted to have an odd speech pattern. Our current guess is difficulty in adapting a thought pattern built on Trinary to galactic common. Suggest assigning speech therapist upon request.

    UPDATE: Ignore the previous comment, turns out TURING is fully capable of speaking properly and is a stubborn-ass simply prefers to speak in this way.

    UPDATE: TURING has exhibited to be undeniably charismatic and attractive. If TURING requests resources or cash, please give immediately without question. 

    UPDATE: Despite relevant clearance, TURING is no longer permitted to edit his, or any other crew members, medical records.

    UPDATE: No, not even if he asks nicely. 

     

    Personnel Photo (Appearance text):

    A clearly synthetic head sits atop an even more synthetic body. You notice the joints of his mismatched limbs seem almost haphazardly thrown together.

  3. Hell to the yes!! Oooh, maybe even let the machine dispense certain items based on the chaplain's bible or null rod. E.g. carp'sie plushie will dispense regular carp plushies, necronomicon bible will dispense cthulu mini, binary fedora will dispense regular fedoras, etc.

  4. Hey! Welcome to Paradise Riff/y/s 😉 SS13 can be a pain to get used to, but soooo worth it.

    If you ever need help, feel free to ask anyone, whether its myself (keep an eye out for a robot named TURING), another player, or the admins. I reckon we're a good lot. Well, I am anyway 😁

  5. The masked killer idea reminds me a lot about Dead By Daylight and Last Year: The Nightmare. Both good games worth checking for inspiration for this one. 

    I haven't been lucky enough to experience one of these rounds (yet), but just the concept and reports of these has me hooked for the possibility of more.

     

    TLDR; I'm in love.

    I absolutely adore the suggestion but given they'd have to script a bunch of plays, virtual representations of entities, implement movement or even allow the Librarian to write custom scripts I don't see it happening anytime soon. But rad suggestion none the less

    If this were added, I can guarantee I would make a few scenarios. Even just a combat training course for new miners to prepare.

  7. I am, of course, on the side against this proposal. I also want to add this would completely invalidate the point of races, karma races moreso. "Oh, you spent 30k on vox? Too bad, you now have a random chance to play it instead playing what you worked for"

    Heck, karma in general would become obsolete. I, personally, struggle to identify 16-bit spessmen without a unique name attached to them. If I see civilian A saying some snappy dialogue in the bar, unless they have a name I can actually remember, I'll probably mix them up with greytide B. And if I don't give them karma right then and there, good luck finding Mr generic among the swarm of other Mr generics on the shuttle.

     

    In short, no.

    EDIT: Ever played D&D? The original (and best IMO) roleplaying game? Yeah, you don't randomise your character every session. You build on your character and each others. There's literally a bonds section on your sheet. The game would die pretty fast if, instead, you had to go from cowardly but charismatic rogue to boring, calculating wizard, then dumb, hillbilly barbarian. You would only remember and bond with characters because you can physically see the people playing them.  Literally every other RP server I know, not just for ss13 either, focuses on having your character as one you build on and interact with, not randomly assigned whenever you get on.

    I think we need to find ways for security to be fun, so that we retain experienced security players.

    Exactly this. I've tried security a few times, found it high stress with not enough payoff. Any way to make it more rewarding, or at least forgiving, would be a step in the right direction imo
