Reason for application: 

During my time as secoff I have been trying to improve my skills and knowledge regarding the mechanics of the game, learn about the culture of a security member, and be able to depend only on my skills to help others during the round, I think that the potential for round security to have a large-scale impact on the game is underrated, and relies on capable and competent officers to keep the round consistently level, which is why I want to be involved in the lead, learning, and coordination of a security team capable of bringing order but at the same time a fair deal that allows the fun of the round to flow.

Security experience (300 word minimum):  

Since I started in this game, the security role is the one that has given me the most intrigue and fun, in addition to having provided me with all the current knowledge I have from the game, since the role itself forces you to obtain all the knowledge of the game, the types of weapons, chemicals, heals, forms of stun, movement and effects the different strategies that the antagonists use during the round. My experience as a secoff is made up of failures, deaths, and victories, I have learned all the types of antagonists, their abilities and potential mechanics as well as the types of tools they use to deal with the security team, how to subdue a person without dealing any type of damage or how long they should be imprisoned before being executed if the situation does not require it, which person should be arrested for their crimes or how to help someone in a dangerous situation, intuit who is the one who really is committing a crime or is harming a member of the station, using different ways to locate a suspect, either through fingerprints or through AI, maintaining a level of order between antagonists and the crew. All this type of knowledge is what I believe brings the greatest potential to a secoff that seeks the level of competence that the crew deserves. When joining a round I try to look for the safety of my teammates, a lone security member has a potential risk much larger and therefore will not be completely effective when helping the station and will have to rely on somewhat more aggressive methods, I maintain a fairly active level of communication to be aware of the different threats present and prepare to deal with this if necessary, on many occasions it is not necessary at all to have to catch an antagonist just for being one unless it is a blob or a nukie that in any case will be treated differently than a common antagonist, I am attentive to the requests from my superiors and the needs of the crew as well as following the orders that benefit the well-being of the station, as secoff I always have my tools for good use and not become a tyrant who only abuses them for his amusement own. Finally, I try to help any security member new to the game who is looking to have fun and meet the needs of the station, whether it is teaching them how to get their tools, what to do when arresting a suspect, what to put in the contraband box and what should be confiscated, as well as when a certain type of force should be used or how an antagonist should be dealt with.

Answer two or more of the following:

• What advice would you give to other sec players?
  

A common mistake of early secoffs is that they often falter when exposed to high-action situations, whether it's someone in the security wing trying to wipe out the remaining team or a vampire dragging a staffie into maints they should always be active and be quick to help someone who is in danger, likewise, know when to withdraw when you are alone and cannot do anything else, regrouping is always a good option and there are ways to recover a fallen teammate. (cloning, disk, clone scanned, etc.) Apart from your usual equipment take something else with you, tools, something to heal yourself, or stun grenades as flashbangs for large groups of suspects, (revs, nukes, etc...) Always be aware of your surroundings and the deterioration of your health, Are you starting to drool? Are you suddenly yawning? if these effects continue, you are probably poisoned!! run towards the nearest infirmary and make sure to use your crisis alarm and that no one follows you. Pay attention to the way someone moves and interacts, do they cover their face? Are they staying very close to you or trying to keep you still for a long time talking? that person you suspect, possibly just someone harmless, retire to an area where there are people or try to keep him close to sight. Always listen to the alerts of your colleagues and listen to the radio on the general channel that's where you will get your first jobs as a security member. Finally, to ensure the well-being of all the crew members you can become a doctor helping someone in critical condition or an engineer by repairing depressurized places.

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 play hide and seek in the station where the objective is to hide from the security team loaded with weapons that do instakill which little by little will leave fewer players eventually leaving a single winner, or not necessarily use lethal weapons if not something that disqualifies players when tagged or shot, like a special baton or something.
