IGN: DivingBlues Rp Name: Rini Kōraru Age: 29 Backstory: Childhood In a small in-land town of Clovelly England a young daughter was welcomed into the family of a young couple. In 1995 amongst the bright coloured spring month of May a child was welcomed into her new family by Emma Di Rosa and Asai Kōraru. Being born in May, the spring month, on the 15th she was given the name of Rini, meaning little bunny. For most of her babyhood Rini grew up having her parents guidance beside her all her time. While they were busy with their jobs, they tried to make room in their days to spend time with their daughter. As time passed young Rini learned what it was like to be an only child. Rini learned quickly how to fit in well with her family. However, while spending time with her mother who commonly tended to look after the young girl, Emma found her daughter was very clumsy and lacked the coordination most kids had at her age. Concerned for her safety Emma took Rini to the hospital to take a scan on her daughter's head. Yet, when the doctor came back with the results they showed nothing and he advised that she was just unstable in her early years of life. Paranoid Emma took Rini home and continued to keep a close eye on her daughter. Because of their location, the small town only housed one school. Being rather small and unknown to the world the school was short staffed and most kids who attended were from the local town or villages around the area. The school only was able to teach kids from 7-10 as the teachers were unqualified to teach any kids above the age. But Emma wished for young Rini to experience school life in the local school before she wished to leave her home town. At first Emma thought nothing of the school and thought a small charming school for her little daughter would be a good opportunity. But, as Rini slowly grew up amongst the local kids she tended to find her daughter upset or scared. Due to Rini’s petite frame and background nationality the kids in school picked on Rini. Rini found that she was constantly being marginalised and an outcast to most of the school's friendship groups and teams, losing hope for her place amongst them. Coming home, she’d tell her parents at dinner about her mistakes or bad experiences. Concerned, they worried for her but wished to lift her spirits and kept encouraging her to go further and show them what she could do. During her early years of schooling. Rini tried to find her feet and stabilise herself before taking off in her learning, putting her time and dedication into her work to impress her parents. She also found an interest in trying to join the local sports teams and clubs but were turned down by the couches. So, Rini chose a different path, keeping optimistic and taking an interest in the small theatre, acting and drama program the school offered. But when PE came around the young child would drop her interest in those clubs and give her best shot at the sports they taught each class excelling in most aspects. At the age of 9 on her birthday, Rini ran out to see her parents excitedly. But, her parents surprised her with packed boxes and suitcases that piled near the door. The young girl was confused and asked her parents about what was happening. Both ready to tell her they spoke to their young daughter explaining that they’d chosen to move away and back to her fathers homeland. At first Rini was confused, why would they want to leave their home? However, curiosity got the better of her racing mind and she got excited. But Rini didn’t know that she was leaving a small quaint town to the bustling busy streets of Tokyo in Japan. She was oblivious to what lay ahead of her but stuck by her parents closely trusting them. They raced through the airport and boarded the plane in almost panic but thrill of a new place. Most of her plane ride the 9 year old slept out cold and ignored their landing in Tokyo. Rini grew aware of her surroundings when her father carried her up to her grandmother's small house. Overwhelmed with emotions Rini became exceedingly excited to meet her grandmother and someone who she’d look up to. Just like Rini, Himari Kōraru and elderly woman and grandmother to the young girl, was equally excited to meet her and see her son again. Rini and her grandmother instantly clicked, and the young girl found a love for her grandmother and her calm, control on life. Commonly Emma and Asai would find their daughter sitting on the floor, or beside her grandmother everywhere she went like her little shadow. Spending time with her grandmother and getting to understand the world through her eyes. Closely following their arrival did their belongings find them. Rini found boxes full of her stuff and slowly pieced together the fact they’d moved to this new place with her grandmother. After 2 months of living with their grandmother, she overheard them speaking and found that she was being sent to a special academy in the area. She rushed out to her mother and asked her curiously about where she would be going. Emma reassured her daughter that everything would be ok and she’d make plenty of friends. This excited Rini and she sat there happily listening to the conversation, but failed to understand half the words they spoke. Walking into her new school Rini was determined to prove to everyone that she was better than she looked but became confused when she found people spoke another language!? The young girl freaked out and became excessively confused hearing words and seeing characters that made no sense to her. With her head spilling she ran through the halls trying to find her parents who no longer were in the building. Rini found that asking people did not work as they never could understand her until she met a young teacher. The young woman was confused as to the child's behaviour and why she was so scared about seeing Japanese lining the walls. But before she was able to overthink the situation she realised that the young girl was one of her students. She knelt down and confronted her trying to support the confused child. Rini, never understanding anything until now, was surprised that the teacher could understand her and slowly calmed down. Miss Leah then became fond of Rini, seeing her every day in her classes and getting to know the young girl and how she ended up in Japan. Rini was determined to prove to her new teacher that she could learn Japanese like the rest and studied hard. She’d spend hours in the school library reading and learning about the language when she could while also spending time with her new friends. While she was quite young Rini admired and looked up to the popular athletes, actors and found an interest in some medical work. But while she was taking off and finding her feet she found people still judged her and made fun of her. She turned her back on those who doubted her and worked harder each time to prove they were wrong and came home every day with a new story or achievement. Her family encouraged her every time she felt down and Rini would pick herself up over and over again and keep going. On an autumn evening while young Rini was doing her homework in her room she heard the sound of her grandmother and mother coming home. She focused on her work, committed to finishing it when her mother poked her head into her room. Emma told her daughter to come out as they had someone they wanted her to meet. Rini jumped up out of her seat curiously and followed her mother before she paused in the main room to find another child. Rini looked at her grandmother and then her mother confused about what was happening. Her grandmother explained to Rini that this was her new brother, his name was Lev and he would be her older brother. Rini was unsure and scared at first ducking behind her mother as she stared at the unfamiliar face of her new brother. It took a few weeks to adjust to her new brother and became overly jealous when Rini found her mother and father giving him attention. But as time passed she slowly grew fond of Lev and accepted him as her brother. Teenager As time flew by, Rini found herself stepping foot into a new high-school as she moved from her primary to secondary school. While Lev was ahead with his schooling Rini and him stuck close to each other when they walked to and from school. Rini found she became quite popular and fit in with her new friends quite well becoming popular amongst the girls. While she tried to keep her grades and interests up Rini constantly found she was getting side tracked with her friends and messing around. At the age of 16 Rini became envious of her friends who all had part time jobs and other things to do after school and begged for her mother to help her find a job. At first Emma was unsure if she wanted her daughter to go out into the streets of Tokyo alone and find a small job to work at. She thought over the idea for a few days even going to her husband to run the idea through him. Asai suggested it would be good for his daughter to go out into the real world and experience real world issues and jobs. And after convincing Emma, she let her daughter go out to find a job. Delighted Rini burst out the door and ran through the streets of Tokyo trying to find a small job that caught her attention. She set her sights on a small cafe tucked away from the packed streets and started her time there as a waiter. 2 weeks after Rini’s 17th she walked home alone excitedly. Having a skip in her step Rini zig-zagged her way through the houses and streets before running up the stairs to her house and walking in. Both her parents were out working, she wasn’t needed for work and her brother was out with his friends. Plus Rini knew her grandmother was home so she was able to hang out with her. However, after calling out her name and making her way into the main room Rini found no sign of her grandmother. She’d wandered around the house curiously calling out her name and checking each room when she found her grandmother out on the floor. In panic she rushed to her grandmother's side and called her name, shaking her slightly. Her face swelling with tears she quickly punched in the emergency line and called for an ambulance. After she got confirmation that they were on the way she called Lev and both her parents. They understood the panic in her voice and rushed home. Lev got home before the ambulance before they rushed Himari off to hospital leaving the two kids alone clutching each other as they waited for their parents. Emma rushed in to comfort her kids and Asai packed some of Himari's things. They then rushed to hospital and after 2 hours of patiently waiting, they then soon got word back and was told the hospital couldn't save her. Devastated Asai took his wife and kids home keeping quiet as they let the news sink in. When they arrived home Rini ran to her room and slammed her door, keeping herself locked there for weeks grieving over her grandmother. With 2 weeks of school left Rini dragged herself out of her room and focused hard as she took her exams and missed tests praying that she’d pass even though she missed 3 weeks of learning and school. (and onto adulthood...)

IGN: FlowerRp Discord (ex. Taco#0503) ❀ Lotus ❀#5332 Do you have a working microphone? Yes, I do have a microphone and I am comfortable in voice chats. Time zone: Eastern Standard Time Zone (EST) Previous ban/warns: None. Previous applications: https://lotusapplications.carrd.co Which position are you applying for? Judge! Describe your activity level: I would describe my activity level as an 9/10. I am extremely active within the server everyday besides the handful of hours per week I need to complete college modules for homework. Though, this college is online, and I can complete it whenever I please. I am generally available during the day. I also take one week breaks every month from online for a detox, though if any emergency icly/oocly arose, I always have my phone on me. What is your motivation for applying? I have been a part of the roleplay community for over a year now, mostly being a part of gangrp and the school faculty. Over the last 6 months, it has become repetitive, and I’ve grown to want a different form of roleplay. I started SPD on Seoul which has only grown my love for the government factions, and I am looking to join the District Court faction for three main reasons. The first reason is my experience within the faction itself. Though, it is only one case, I grew excited for it. I wanted to be a part of this experience in more ways than one, for ooc and ic reasons. The people and characters that carry these roles hold a responsibility for the city of Seoul. The decisions they make need to remain unbiased, they need to keep an open mind for each case they are given. I believe my character can provide these characteristics. The other reason for wishing to be a part of the District Court Faction is due to the friendships I’ve made with individuals who have this role and being able to interact with them both oocly and icly. These people have shown me the different scenarios that each role participates in and how each character can handle them to influence Seoul. All of these are unique experiences I have grown to love being a part of. The last reason is simple. Both my grandfather and my brother are police officers in real life. I have experienced many legal situations and have grown an oocly love for criminal justice. I have watched several criminal and law documentaries within my life, even seeing some in real life. I was very interested in the case of Johnny Depp and Amber Heard, researching it further than just watching the trial itself. If I didn’t have a deep love for animals and wished to work with them in Conservation, I would be studying criminal justice alongside my family who are current members of the force. Have you thoroughly gone through the Court Trial guide and the Justice & Legal Information? Yes, I have diligently read though the information provided to me and will continue to refresh my knowledge throughout my possession of this role. Character name: "My full name is Aodhan Doyle." Character age: "I am 42 years old." Preferred Position [Judge, Prosecutor or Public Defender]: "The position desired is that of a Judge." Nationality: "I am Australian." Preferred Pronouns: "I go by He/Him pronouns. I am a cisgender male." What motivates your character to join the faction? "The answer is quite simple. My mother was a lawyer, my eldest brother a judge. I have a clear understanding of the harmonies of court and justice. I've spent a majority of my life devoted to this role I wish to take on and I look forward to the chance to be given this position. As you can see from my resume below, I have a plethora of experience working in this field, among them including my remarkable achievements working both a public defender and a judge. I look forward to the opportunity to bring a dedicated and unbiased sense of justice to Seoul just as I did my previous projects. I have confidence in myself to be an incredible candidate for the job as Seoul District Court Judge. I have extensive levels of education and experience in law and criminal justice, being one of the most knowledgeable in my class. I have both personal, educative, and real-life experience on top of my intelligence. I believe I could not only be an intellectual candidate but also a sociable and kind-hearted one. I have confidence in myself, and love for my family and town. I wish for growth, rehabilitation, and justice. I promise to bring nothing but time and dedication towards this role. I will be hardworking, self-motivated, communicative, unbiased, and moral with my all the decisions I may bring.” List your characters set of soft skills: "I have an abundance of soft skills developed throughout my years of study to the law along with my projects done with the legal teams. I will list my most capable ones below, but some others I have obtained are listed in my resume below." 1. Critical Thinking - "I am able to perform the act of analyzing facts to understand a problem or topic thoroughly. This skill gives me the ability to collect information and data, asking thoughtful questions and analyzing possible solutions." 2. Organization - "This skill allows me to use my resources efficiently and effectively. Being organized means I am able to manage my time, energy and workspace well and can accomplish all the assigned tasks successfully." 3. Problem-Solving - "My problem-solving skill helps me solve issues quickly and effectively. It's one of my key skills to show that I am self-reliant. Problem-solving skills able me to quickly identifying the underlying issue and implement a solution." Explain any weaknesses your character might have: "Weaknesses come and go naturally for me due to my ability to adapt well in the unknown. Though, one weakness I have always struggled to overcome is my ability to be creative. I tend to perceive myself as a left-brained individual, mostly analytical and methodical in my thinking. I have the ability to be creative, just not as expressive as most." Level of education? [Bachelors, Associates, etc. "My resume is shown below." Backstory [100+ words]: "I grew up in a small town in Australia with my mother and two brothers. I lived a relatively normal childhood, not much to that. Was a good kid with decent grades, played some sports in high school. I was recruited to the military not long after high school, finding no real calling to devote my life to. I stayed in the military on a four-year contract doing heavy training throughout the years. After the four years, my mother who is a lawyer and my eldest brother just becoming a judge, both had pushed me into their line of work. I grew up around the idea of justice and what holding this role entails due to my family, so I had nothing against following in their footsteps. I attended a decent college and got good grades, nothing much happened there besides study and the occasional party I wasn't too fond of. Graduating from my first round of college was a breeze, earning a bachelor's degree in Political Science with a minor in History. Though, getting into Law School deemed quite the harder task to complete. I decided to give myself a better chance at this accomplishment by adding onto my resume. I went back to the same college four years later to earn my master's degree in Criminal Law as well as studying a minor of Psychology for the next two years. With those successfully secured under my belt, I tackled attending Law School. The second time around went smoothly, starting classes the next coming fall. The first year proved to be difficult, most of the professors’ expectations being above average. I followed a course of study with the following subjects: Civil Procedure, Constitutional Law, Contracts, Criminal law and criminal procedure, legal method, legal writing, property law and torts. I also participated in moot court exercises, arguing hypothetical court cases. Past my first year, I started to focus more on my foundation courses. I learned many valuable skills within my three years attending Law School which includes the past, present and future of the law, analytic and critical thinking, drafting, learning cases, dignified argumentation, negotiating and meditation techniques, the process in which the administration works, and leadership. I also did a handful of research papers along with an internship within a law firm that I later got hired at as a public defender. Graduating from this Law School with my Juris Doctorate, I continued to work at the law firm I interned at after passing my Bar's Exam. The law firm ended up getting shut down due to the owner's unwarranted ways, though I was quickly hired at a neighboring business. Venturing more into the present, I started to look up to my eldest brother who was a judge, working my way to his pathway. In Australia, I needed to seek admission to legal practice before being appointed to judge. I was appointed to judge in the early year of 2015 by the local governor. I stayed in the same area working alongside my brother until I started to yearn for something different. I loved my work and the help I was bringing my state, though, it didn't need me. There were more president areas which needed a man with my knowledge, areas I could expand my creativity within. I set my sights on Seoul's Court District after a trial they held on the news over a man by the name of Bitagram Hoe. The nature of the crime and justice served interested me and pulled my gaze towards this city. I hope the opportunity is given to me to become an influential piece within Seoul's District Court as a Judge." What is an opening statement? An opening statement is a factual statement given by each trial party before a trial can begin. Opening statements contain factual evidence that establishes the burden of proof or the standard that the prosecutor must meet for their charges proven. Opening statements cannot be argumentative. Opening statements must consider a variety of facts and evidence to create a concrete argument with valid claims or charges. The themes of the opening statement should be presented clearly in one or two sentences at the beginning of the statement. A story or chronological timeline may then be used to explore the evidence, explain facts, and support claims. Opening statements should not include contradictory facts but should provide a conclusion that asks the jury/judge for their support. An effective opening statement does not simply include factual evidence. The prosecutor and the defendant must both explore a number of considerations such as the information being presented in the argument, the order in which the information will be presented, and how each party will respond to the claims made by the opposing party. The prosecutor and the defendant should also engage the jury/judge during their opening statement to establish their claims and persuade the jury/judge to agree with their argument. When is the verdict given? A verdict is a judgment or opinion given after considering the facts of a situation. A verdict is given after each trial party has provided all the evidence to the jury/judge. They are then dismissed to reach a verdict of guilty or not guilty. A verdict can take a mere couple of minutes or as long as a week, as long as every person agrees to the decision made. What is it called when a witness does not answer or outright avoids a question? If a witness ignores or refuses to answer questions, they are determined an unresponsive witness. Extra Thank you for reading! I hope you consider me for this role!

Yeah, let's not differ from the topic of this suggestion. If a concern about bullets within SPD is an issue, make another suggestion for the opinions regarding it. This suggestion is to provide an easier way to restock for BOTH spd and ems.
-
We do pay for them. Both our faction and the EMS faction.
-
This is already a thing. Cadets at the time are still learning the rules and how things work. There is a lot that goes on within PD, lots of rules and regulations. Also keeping multiple things in mind during situations. Mess ups will happen with people who are new to it. Just be patient with us while we learn and talk to the higher-ups if you have any questions!

Sorry for Hyun, he a booty. I love you

The beta is honestly really fun, even if I'm stuck in the station as an SPD cadet. I've been able to tour the map and try most things available on my alt account. The only concern I hold is how easy it is for civilian to get guns at the moment, most of the gangrpers having them. Though, this topic is being discussed! Other than that, I find the beta to be extremely fun. I enjoy how involved the staff team is with the players and how well made the map is.

IGN(In Game Name): LotusRp What Language are you applying for?: Russian How did your character learn the language? (100+ Characters): Makoto had a rough life growing up on the streets, though, it was what he wanted. He enjoyed the ways of street life and continued his travels in the chaos of the roads from Italy all the way to Karakura, Japan. Between that, he stopped in Russia for quite some time due to joining a gang called "Сокол". Here, he learned the Russian language to its fullest. Makoto was a thug level when he was first introduced to the language, learning from a fellow thug who had been born in Russia. They first started with the basics of vocab everyday then moved on to full conversations. The thug helped Makoto every day, speaking to him in normal conversational pace, though, Makoto struggled quite a lot with the subject. This was the first language he learned besides his native tongue of Italian. He struggled with some words and the plural versions of them. Though, after around a couple months of continuous practice and dedication with the help of this thug, Makoto was able to master the Russian language. How does this benefit your character's roleplay?: This will be beneficial to my character's ropleplay due to the fact that it is an important language that goes with his lore back when he was in a gang in Russia. He uses the languages quite often now due to spending years there.

IGN(In Game Name): LotusRp What Language are you applying for?: Italian How did your character learn the language? (100+ Characters): Makoto grew up on the streets, participating in petty crimes to survive. It wasn't until he met Don Forelli, that he wasn't alone anymore. Makoto was taken into the Forelli Crime Family. He noticed there that it was an Italian family, which he was of Italian descent. Though, due to his life on the streets, Makoto never learned the Italian language, he only knew what they spoke on the streets which was Japanese. He took it upon himself to learn the family language so he wouldn't come off as much as a burden as he thought he was with this disadvantage. He would first start off with buying an Italian translation book, listening in to the conversations his family had around him, trying to decipher what they were saying. Of course, this was an awful way to learn- so he decided to download a language app and learn that way. He struggled with certain words and the plural versions of the language as well as gender identification for various words- but he practiced with this app for around two months before he felt confident to have small conversations with his family. It wasn't until two more months later that Makoto was fluent in the language, practice makes perfect, of course. How does this benefit your character's roleplay?: This would benefit my character Makoto's lore due to him being Italian descent but not learning it till later in life. It is a part of his lore and will further be useful towards him due to his relationship with the language.
