Mentor Application

[aft2001]

Recommended by (if applicable): Jan.antilles, Nexusuxen, Varshie

I recommended that Varali apply for a few reasons, though I do want to make it clear that she is a friend of mine, and I'd rather make that intrinsic bias clear as I try to explain my recommendation as neutrally as I can. Varali has consistently shown a desire to not only learn the game's niche mechanics, but teach them to others. Numerous times I've seen her spend entire rounds helping newer doctors or roboticists or security officers. In terms of aptitude towards helping others and game knowledge, she absolutely scores well on that front.

Additionally, I personally trust her with metaknowledge - Varali actively avoids powergaming, and I know full well that she will meet up with someone who, OOC, she absolutely knows is a changeling, but will still go along with it anyways because it's far more interesting and realistic that way (as realistic as a spaceman fart game can be). I would be genuinely surprised if she took advantage of metainformation based on how she reacts to things going on in a round.

I still support my recommendation, and would be rather disappointed if she did not become a mentor, as we would be missing out on someone who genuinely wants to help this community and those who wish to play this wacky game. +1
