Reason for application:
Security is one of my most played roles and I feel like this is the next step in security players life cycle. I think I have gathered enough excperience to handle the job of HoS.

Security experience (300 word minimum):
Security was really the last job i got into, because I was mostly scared of messing things up or just being deadweight. But I have shed these fears and now security is one of my favorite jobs on station. The most intriguing thing about playing sec is that every round is different. One round is action packed combat maddness and the next one is completely opposite.

Playing security can often be bit rough since you have to play the roles of judge, jury and executioner. (Sometimes even all three at once). But moments like that are usually the fun of playing security. As a member of security you have the chance to interract with and influence the people around you, so in my opinion its important to find the balance of carrot-and-batton to keep the round flowing smoothly.

Antags are people too and they deserve their piece of the fun. Thats why its important to aim for fair punishments depending the the severity of the crime and other factors. I do feel little bit sorry for antags, when they force my hand and i have to kill them. Which is why brig time is my preferred punishment over just throwing antags out of the nearest airlock.

Part of the role of HoS is teaching and with the many hours of security under my belt it would be easy for me to teach a trick or two to new security personel. I dont know any super advanced sec tech but I have a firm hold on the basics and more.

I have learned that communication is the name of the game. If you dont cordinate with other members of security and keep them out of the loop, you are shooting yourself in the foot. They cant really help you, if you are silently dying in some distant maint. Commucation is also a huge help when tracking witnesses and forensic evidence.

Answer two or more of the following:

• What advice would you give to other sec players?
  - Dont be affraid of making mistakes or asking questions.
  - Communicate. Security has strenght in numbers so lone wolves usually get eaten by the various evils that inhabit the station.
  - Remember to have fun, but also remember to let others have fun.
  
  
• Describe any differences in your playstyle when part of a full security team and when being the only security officer.
  When playing solo I tend to act more paranoid and tense, since you dont really have any backup. When playing with other security members I play more relaxed and I try to interact with crew and other security as much as I can.
  

Answer one or more of the following fun questions (because it's important for the HoS to be fun):

• What's a security gimmick that you've ran or wanted to run?
  I have always wanted to do a round where I bake all of my equipment into pies and fight crime by throwing them at crimers.
