Usual character name: Storm Trashwitch
BYOND username: Trash_Witch
Discord username (if you are on our discord): Storm#0257
Recommended by (if applicable): Slazzy
Goon servers you play: Goon 3: Morty and sometimes Goon 4: Sylvester
Reason for application: A HoS is someone that brings the security team together, guiding them and helping direct things amidst the chaos of a round. All too often, I find myself wishing there was one around when I play security, however most rounds go by without one ever joining. I want to be someone who can fill that role and help facilitate fun RP, for both sides of the law.
Security experience (300 word minimum): I’ve only been playing since March, and after experimenting around with roles I immediately found myself drawn into sec work. I skipped past Sec Assistant to try out being an officer, and quickly fell in love. Walking the beat was a great way to get myself more familiar with the stations, not to mention get to meet the fine folks I serve and protect. And while I’m not too keen on paperwork, I enjoyed (and still enjoy) doing desk duty simply because I never knew who was gonna come up to me, or what they might need. That part alone is one of the biggest reasons I love sec: You get to RP with pretty much everyone! In particular, facing off against antags is always a blast, I’ve seen so many creative gimmicks and evil schemes that it’s hard to keep track.
Typically, my playstyle is a bit more reserved in terms of ‘go out and catch the baddies’. If we have no one on the front desk, I’ll usually take over. I view the front-desk as the first line of defence for Sec HQ, not to mention the primary spot for people to air their issues and seek out help. It’s important for sec to have a ‘face’, and I always try to be upbeat and considerate of those I listen to, no matter how ludicrous their story or requests may be. Elsewise, I’ll take breaks from my desk to patrol around and visit the different departments, looking out for crime but also people to RP with. The whole time, I’m keeping an eye on the radio chatter, looking for people screaming ‘help’ or trying to report crimes. I’ve been trying to improve my communication lately, and make sure I let other officers know when I’m responding to a call or what I’m up to.
As far as dealing with antags, my approach is always to let them talk first, try to reason with them and learn more about what they’re doing, before finally trying to bring them in. I wouldn’t call myself ‘light’ on crime, but I always try to give the antag leeway to have some fun and get some good interactions in.
