Heh.
It’s been a few months since this application was posted. I’ve gone ahead and updated some bits and parts of it, the main being the change of characters at the last minute. Enjoy dewd ^_^

Describe your activity on the server:
Admittedly, during the time of this application (June), my activity was reaaaal good. If anything, during the few months this application sat unreviewed, I’d say my activity probably doubled when I left the town faction and focused solely on EMS. In regards to quota, I was easily hitting over thrice the max amount and even got promoted to the newly established Emergency Department!!! My time zone is EST, so it's the most ideal in terms of being available for events and just the player base in general.
However, during the first week of October, I grew extremely ill and had to take a week off from my EMS duties. Like, what the freak dude? Why am I sick the only week KPD apps are open?? I’ve been resting the past few days to recover and, well, haven’t really been on that much. There isn’t a lot to say about this, but other than this gruelling week plagued by an illness I will not be going into detail about, I’m a pretty active person on SRP.
Yeah. Heh. Clock it!
What is your motivation for applying?:
Finally, let’s address the elephant in the room.
“Why is this FREAK applying again after being kicked from KPD cuz of inactivity?!”
I was accepted into KPD at the end of 2022— where I completely bombed my first evaluation before passing shortly after. I was in the faction for barely two months as a level one grunt (insert: patrol officer) before being removed by Yonio due to inactivity. If I could use one word to describe my time in KPD, I’d use the word; “Lacklustre”.
I was juggling a bunch of stuff during that time; including school, both a florist and law firm internship and just in general working late hours which resulted in a heavy decrease of my motivation to log on. The main thing that really steered me away from logging on however, was the lack of interaction between the members in the faction. It felt extremely cliquey, and it was as if nobody actually wanted to interact with one another unless it was strictly within their friend group. This, normally, isn’t an issue for me personally; however, considering how the faction was run at the time, I found it incredibly boring and. . Underwhelming.
When I first applied, it was alongside a very close friend of mine, where both of our motivations for applying were the same. It was to have fun and make friends in the faction, while also being able to log onto the server for wild situations that, with a single missed roll or wrong action, could put our developed characters at risk, or even, death. When my first application was denied, I lost this motivation, and with my second one, I felt as if I only applied to really just prove a point, or whatever. I didn’t take the trainings seriously, nor did I put any effort into logging on or to increase my activity as an officer. Fighting people for arrest quota, the lack of inclusivity for interaction within the faction and KPD itself just felt like a chore. A biggggggggggggg ole chore.
Again, with this application, I understand that I’m already at a disadvantage due to my previous history within KPD… And the fact that I’m already in EMS… Thankfully, though, I’m in good standing for all the other recommended requirements, which is my suspiciously clean record/reputation, working microphone, and SERVER KNOWLEDGE!!!!!!!!!!!
With this third application to this faction, I want to emphasize in this section specifically that I truly want to experience KPD as a whole and will be dedicated to this role if I am accepted. My motivation for joining is still the same, which is to make friends, have a guuuuuuuuud time and I hope I’ll actually be able to show off this motivation rather than being inactive like last time!!!!!
What knowledge do you have of Police Work?
I would say I’m pretty confident regarding police work with all the information as Ivette practically beat the knowledge into me, alongside the previous training I was given in my rather short time in KPD. However, I decided to keep it short in this application as I didn't want to flood it with general knowledge regarding the hierarchy of KPD with all their given equipment and stuff. I’m totally open to learning much more, as most of this knowledge is probably really outdated!
Station Procedures;
CCTV - Officers have access to all CCTV cameras that are scattered across the town. This plugin is actually super cool as officers can check in real time if anything is going on in a specific area. Certain cameras, however, will need permission by the land's owner to access, such as private properties.
Taking/filing reports - If someone wants to file a report, they'd first have to be searched before being able to enter an interrogation room in the station. This is a mixture of both IC and OOC questioning, where the officer has to fill out a form before actually submitting it.
Inmate visitation/care - Individuals arrested often have the opportunity to roleplay out their arrest in the prison, whether it be a simple visitation or even inmate care, which usually consists of exercise, giving them meals and overseeing community services.
And of course, the situational priorities that KPD strictly follow:
Officer’s safety → Victim’s safety → Law enforcement
Why is Police important to SchoolRP?
The main type of roleplay you’ll commonly have in this server, stated in the name, is school roleplay, lawl.
Police are important to SRP due to a multitude of reasons; the most notable one being the opposing faction; the crime faction. They go head to head in terms of what the factions do, where KPD keeps the city safe and enforces rules whereas the crime faction does the opposite. Through selling illegal contraband on the black market, illegal services and even a crime clinic, without a police force on the server, it’d be a literal dystopia.
Police are vital to SchoolRP as they prevent characters from doing illegal actions that could endanger the community around them and even themselves. By enforcing rules, fines and even arresting criminals, KPD ensures that a balance is set in SRP, and even poses a risk to others who want to roleplay out their character as a criminal or who actively engage in criminal activity.
Do you acknowledge that if training is held whilst you are online, you are needed to attend or you will be punished?
Yes. . Heh.
In-Character (IC) Section :3
What's your character's full name?:
Tanya Ogawa
How old is your character (if accepted)?:
Twenty-six years old | 26
What are your character's gender and pronouns?:
Cisgender Female (She/Her)
Please select your highest academic role at the time of writing this application:
(Grade-12/Bachelors/Masters/PhD):
Baccalauréat— though Tanya did pursue higher education in the medical field whilst in the military.
What languages does your character know besides Japanese?:
French & Japanese Sign Language
Describe your character; how they look, what makes them unique?
The physical appearance of Tanya Ogawa was quite simple: a Japanese woman with a tan complexion clawed with various scars. Her hair was dyed to a navy tinge– often styled to cascade down her back freely. The most notable feature about her, though, were her violet, almost gemstone-like irises. Taking her already sharp features into consideration, Tanya stood at a tall 186cm (6’1”) that basically cemented her entire “rough” gimmick she had going on. Two silver hoops hung from her right lobe, one piercing her upper helix and the other a snug. Occasionally, Tanya can also be seen readjusting two metal military identification tags tucked into her shirt at all times. It’s never visible in sight, though one may catch a glimpse of it, and if questioned, the blue-headed woman will simply shrug it off, chalking it to the questioner’s imagination.
Any words that fell from her lips were rough, a deep tone previously affected from a delinquent adolescence. Tanya picked up smoking from her teenage years, and this bad habit carried from the military to the present day, where she can be seen frequenting any rooftop available for these smoke breaks, though, with herbal cigarettes instead of regular ones. She hates the stench of tobacco, even as a smoker, and will often mask the scent with any sort of perfume available. Tanya’s always grateful if offered a cigarette, nonetheless.
Even taking all of these mannerisms into account, Tanya Ogawa is friendly if you are.
This exact mindset was tested by two EMS workers during her short stay at the Karakura Hospital, Dr. Kurai and Dr. Ōkinabe, where she got into a physical altercation on her first day, and this only continued throughout the week, much to her own dismay, and, well, reciprocation. Half of the entire workplace disliked her for a simple misunderstanding, and, long story short, Tanya ended up committing malpractice against one of her own co-workers after a long, private and tension-filled conversation on the Hospital rooftop.
..?
How does your character act in a professional/casual situation?
Professionalism for Tanya isn’t a concept she enjoys, nor follows. She’s mature enough to understand the difference between a professional setting versus a casual setting, though, often or not, is the same during both. Tanya tackles everything with an extremely laid-back composure, which ensures comfort from both parties.
What is their outlook on the idea of co-workers & teamwork?
Even with the heaps of misunderstandings Tanya caused previously during her time in EMS, she holds an exceedingly optimistic outlook on teamwork. KPD wouldn’t be able to function without teamwork and fellow officers, and this is the case with many other factions. Being able to cooperate with one and another is extremely vital to making sure the KPD runs smoothly. She’d be most comfortable with a partner while responding to calls, if anything.
What's your character's backstory?
This section of the application is solely based on her description and recollection of her "backstory" (background, dewd, background), meaning it's a plausible one, yes. Still, it might not be the truth of her actual origins.
Tanya dislikes questions regarding her childhood, though to quell such curiosities, she does reveal that she was born in a small, unnamed town in France. She lived in France for the first seventeen years of her life before choosing to enlist in the military right after graduation. Her French citizenship and fluency in French back up these claims, and a ramble continues on her experiences in the military as a medic for the next several years. Eventually, though, through unforeseen circumstances that she doesn't elaborate on, Tanya leaves the military for Japan. After some stagnant years, she became a part of the Ogawa family through adoption and obtained a position at the Karakura Hospital as a doctor.
Her stay at the hospital alongside the workers was short, though she achieved many feats during her time, but most of them weren't significantly... Exemplary. These include getting into a physical altercation during her first day with a psychiatrist, committing malpractice against her co-worker, and, after getting in trouble for this, pepper spraying her higher-up. Even with all these bad accomplishments under her belt, Tanya did leave on a good note: treating the infamous Saiky-Akihito after an internal conflict arose between the worker and the director himself. Now, Tanya is residing in Karakura for good, and she decided with her past military experience that becoming an officer of the force would suit her best.
It's clear that her story doesn’t add up.
What is she hiding? Her backstory is a mystery: veiled in a thick cloud of fabrication, deception. Something that should stay in the confines of a rooftop, before it envelops and suffocates them, like cigarette smoke.

If you see your co-workers physically abusing an inmate, what should you do?
Quickly turning my body-cam on, I’d try to separate them from the inmate. If I’m alone and this doesn’t work, I’d radio for backup where they’d be forced to be removed from the inmate. After they’ve been separated, I’d assess the inmates' injuries, confirming if they need immediate medical attention or not and in some cases, even radio for EMS. This situation would obviously be brought up to a higher up with the body-cam footage being submitted as evidence of misconduct.
…Right, that’s the standard procedure, at least. It’s a “what should you do question”,
though, if this were to actually happen, Tanya would probably stand back and watch the scene unfold; keeping her body cam off and covered. Why would a cop be abusing an inmate? Was it because of a personal vendetta? Or, simply a power trip? There are a lot of roleplay opportunities within this specific scenario, and Tanya's interest would most definitely be piqued. If it comes to the point where the inmate is fighting back, or it seems to be getting out of hand, that’s when she’d intervene, allowing the body cam to catch her stepping in.
What should you do if you see your co-worker being assaulted?
Firstly, I would radio for backup and make sure my body cam is turned on. If it is needed, I’ll also radio for EMS to treat my co-worker if their injuries seem life-threatening or severe. This depends completely on the situation, meaning if there are multiple people involved in this assault, I’d try to make use of my taser and attempt to intervene before detaining the suspects and checking my co-worker for any major injuries. This prioritizes my safety first, then my co-workers, before trying to apprehend whoever is assaulting them.
What do you do if you find out that your co-worker is corrupt and is helping criminal organizations?
I’d attempt to discreetly gather as much evidence before immediately bringing this to the attention of a higher-up. I wouldn’t want the co-worker to be aware of the fact that I know they’re corrupt to avoid them covering up/destroying evidence. After that, it’s all in the hands of the higher-ups to decide what to do.
Again, this is a “what do you do” question, and this is the standard protocol. If Tanya were to find out that one of her co-workers was corrupt, perhaps she would even threaten the officer in question for information regarding their corruption. It’s all situational-dependent, but I just want to emphasize that Tanya’s character would probably handle this much differently.
How would you react to a criminal trying to bribe you?
I’d let them off with a verbal warning and a limp wave of dismissal. If they continue to persuade me into taking a bribe, I’d fine them with the charge of bribery. In the worst case scenario, though, if they continue to push it even after the fine, I’d arrest them with obstruction of justice.
