Yrrahd'lo Ytrid (Silent Stalker)

[Dirty Old Harry]

Byond ID: Dirty Old Harry

Marine Name (so we know who you are; if you play alien mostly, state that here): Mathias/Sasha Crassman

Name of the character you want whitelisted (The name your predator will use. This must match your in-game predator name): Yrrahd'lo Ytrid

Are you familiar with the Predator Code Of Honor? I have taken the time to study the Code of Honor and i am fully aware of it.

Character background (An ADEQUATE description and story of your predators background): Yrrah's story begins on a planet still unknown and unseen by any human eye, far from any human world and farther still from the ever expanding frontier. This world was almost entirely oceanic save for a few tropical islands that dotted the planet like small specks of dust laying on a forgotten shelf, these islands were tropical and most would barely stretch to the size of a football field but there were larger ones that could hold the length and width of that of a small continent, few and far between however. On one such island was a clan of Yautja's that held old and honoured Hunters from other clans who formed together to create a breeding ground for newer generations of Hunters, the clan was known as "Ytri'd". Most of the young were birthed on the island from experienced hunters that coupled but sometimes the young from other clans were given as a means to grow and train under those that were experienced in the hunt, to create Yautja hunters of legend. One such Young Yautja was given to the clan from an outcast mother and a long dead father, the clan had done as they always did with the new that joined their tribe, they were raised and taught the tricks of the hunt and the skills from honoured hunters were passed down with training. Yrrahd'lo, or simply, Yrrah was like the rest that were given, not from birth and old enough to walk and talk, it was through the years of training and mentoring that they learned of their culture, customs and heard of stories of great deeds carried out in bloody battles from honored hunters. Yrrah would train with all manners of weaponry but to truly excel in the hunt, chose to master no fighting techniques but to become adept with all forms of weaponry available to them to be more flexible in combat, planned or otherwise.

Yrrah himself had not felt saddened that he was raised with no parents, in his eyes and in the eyes of many others, he had been given an excellent opportunity to train without parental guidance but rather under the harsh teachings of the trainers of the tribe. Spiritual and humble, making an effort to utilise trickery only when absolutely necessary, if his prey could see him and he could see his prey then there was no lies to be seen or believed, no trickery to cloud the mind and the hunt would be pure and sporting. Following the many years of training and hunting of what prey was available on the planet, Yrrah had learned enough and surpassed his superior's tests, with the clan elder's approval, he wast taken to the stars to seek out and hunt for his glory. Knowing stories of the Hivemind and of the nature of the serpent along with the naive foolishness of the Human mind, he was to find and earn his place as a true hunter. Every Yautja has their story and their trials that they have passed, Yrrah will face these trials with wit and honest ruthlessness.

How do you intend to play your predator (as in, describe HOW you will act/play your predator)? I would dedicate myself to learning to work with a specific weapon or fighting style but it's all been done before and i feel like making things interesting by constantly changing weapons after rounds, using traps as a form to bottle neck a target into an area or if said target insists on fleeing from a duel. Cloaking will be used in a defensive fashion in the sense of cloaking to evade the entire Hivemind breathing down my neck or if a full on squad of Marines are focusing me, otherwise, when observing prey and moving around, i will remain uncloaked so that my target may witness me, watching and stalking them around the map. No sudden flash attacks where i'll uncloak two tiles from a marine to chop their head off and then disappear with the head, if you do this, you're a dick. As far as RP goes, i will interact with fellow hunters and with others through emotes, speaking only when totally necessary or when speaking to an Elder, in the sense of that silent, creepy figure lurking just out of the light.

Why should we whitelist you? I would like to believe that i'm responsible enough and sensible enough to be trusted with this whitelist, being fully aware of the CoH and the server rules while also bringing in a diverse loadout and (frankly) non-dickish way to play Pred. For what it's also worth, this should give newer players and even more regular players a view of how different weapons work.

Have you been banned from CM in the last month for any reason (we will check, and lies may result in immediate denial)? Not to my knowledge, keep note however that i do have a history of some offences on CM but as stated above, i would like to think i can be trusted given the time that has passed and with the recent change in my behavior.

Are you currently banned from any other servers and if so, why? Yogstation, was permanently banned several years ago on my first round of SS13 in which i tried to refuel a lit welder with a fuel tank, accidentally killing myself and another crew member.

Do you understand that any player - donor or otherwise - can have their whitelist status revoked should they break our rules or disobey the Predator Code of Honor? I fully understand that my whitelist status may be removed should i break the server rules or ignore CoH.

*Wipes face off, feeling like utter trash* Jesus, I feel like shit (Cuz of the Sniffles) and I shouldn't be writing a review. But someone's got to do it.

Alright, this application. As I've said many times to many countless ones, have a lot of effort put into it. The problem is, not enough effort was put into it, to appease the reader's mind that you will live up to being a whitelisted member. While I believe you have potential, you have not showed that you can live up to it. Your backstory, is more about your clan than your predator. Your predator is more bland than a bagel, he has clearly no defining features or personality that separates him from the rest. He is in a nutshell (A Coldstone Hunter that doesn't talk much, has no parents, and was treated poorly but is an absolute badass while hunting) He has absolutely no defining feature, while that's not bad in it's own sense. It's bad because your execution of it, is bad, and the being able to be a standard is nulled in my opinion. I'm not too familiar to you either, so it doesn't help your case.

You blend into the many not accomplished attempts of being a predator. I'm not trying to discourage you, but I see no reason to want you to be a predator. Your antic is to be a normal predator, you use traps? You don't use the same weapon? Woopie Fukin' Doo. Predators do that all the time, some don't but that's your character arch? You liking to use a variety of weapons? That's soo unoriginal. Seriously, and your reasoning to be predator is to not be dickish? To be "Diverse"? No one cares about your weapons, seriously. Like I'm not trying to be mean, but people are going to just be like "Oh, it's that one predator! Man he's so original with his many different weapons every single round." No.

By looking at your "Why should we whitelist you?" You seem to come off as those who just whine about being killed, that's my impression at least. I honestly doubt that those kind of situations happen often enough to warrant you genuinely believing that's why you intend to be predator. I get your intentions, but I doubt those intentions will end well for anyone.

My condolences, -1.

I've never been this keen on someone being denied, but maybe it's because I feel like shit? I don't know. Anyway, I'd recommend if you were to be denied. That you severely think up of something more original, or put more effort into your backstory and be a little be more original and less edgy when it comes to a backstory.

P.S. You're suppose to capitalize every I. Not sure why you don't. Also there wouldn't be a breeding ground for Yautja, mostly because the Females choose, who or who isn't a viable choice for that kind of shit.

Well sorry i couldn't win over your approval but here's a few little notes on what you've said:

The whole backstory to this predator is that he is just recently coming out of training, young and possibly naive as he is and is yet to have this glorious battle that sets him apart from others. For personality i'd say he has plenty, he's honest, humble, still young and learning of new species.

As for fighting style, you can never win on this part, there's always going to be a predator before you that has done that same fighting style so why focus on one when you could use them all? As for being dickish, the amount of salt preds rack up from appearing out of nowhere, charging up to someone and cutting them up is monumentous, it's a given when you play pred that someone, somewhere WILL get angry at you but i feel like there's no way to avoid that, can only hope to stem the amount of people it happens to.

And finally on the breeding grounds, i'd like to imagine there's a place where veteran hunters go to when they aren't actively hunting, teaching and training unblooded and the young in how to hunt, occasionally leaving to go off on hunts across the system to come back with tales of how they defeated so in so in honorable combat with a belt adorned with fresh trophies.

If i couldn't win you over then fair enough, i'll take what you've said into consideration but i'd like to ask why you would put up a review when you feel ill, would it not be smarter to let it pass then post a review once you're better rather than putting one up when you feel bad and such?

More feedback required

I've talked with Harry a good amount of times whether it be OOC or IC, he's level headed and can RP well, he can be a predator I believe.

+1.

Anyone else got further feedback

[Mook476]

I've seen Harry on a couple times and they're pretty decent. I like the story it's not that bad. The play style isn't bad I think it'll be interesting to see you as a predator. The name is also pretty unique so why not. +1

[Nightwolf901]

I have to agree with Mook here. I've talked and played with Harry, hes not a bad person and the back story wasn't horrible to read. I like the name, Uncommon to my eyes and Hes a great friend of Pinko. +1

[Dirty Old Harry]

Just about thought this was dead and yet i'm pleasantly surprised with more feedback, thanks to both Nightwolf and Mook. Much appreciated, guys.

Denied.
