Describe your activity on the server:
If I had to summarize my activity on the server, I'd say I'm fairly active. I do have plenty of real life obligations to attend to, such as school and family, but for the most part, I'm able to be online every day. That being said, I usually spend three to five hours online (if not more), most of this time spent role playing on either my team character or adult character. I'm equally active on both weekends and weekdays cause of my current schooling situation, thus I'm usually online from 11am to 10pm Gmt+3.
That being said, I joined SRP in late 2017, but didn't get into it until late 2020. Admittedly, much like a lot of other players on the server, I started out with Gang RP. Even with its current state, it still makes up a large part of my experience on the server. I credit it for shaping a lot of my current abilities, especially when it comes to managing large groups and handling complex situations. I’ve also met a lot of people and formed meaningful connections that I still hold onto today. Though my focus has shifted less towards gang-oriented roleplay and more towards crime RP itself.
It was around 2023 that I applied for teacher, I had never been in a faction prior so it was something of a learning experience for me. Fortunately, i got denied settled in quickly. I found myself really enjoying the (for the lack of a better word) chaotic environment. I found a lot of joy and excitement and experiences for new players and normal players alike, making class activities and games were some of my favorites. That being said, my biggest hurdle here was managing disruptive players, where I had to learn to assert myself when necessary.
I eventually i didn't get in in hopes of getting involved in something new, which to me was Jock RP. The first team I was on was HS female football, and although the team and people were lovely, I quickly figured out that the plugin just wasn't for me. But during the few months I was on that team I learned a lot about JockRP, and most if not all my first experiences with it were on that team. After that I took a small break, and it was also around the end of the year where I applied for builder and looked forwards to trying out for HS male basketball.
I did end up getting into both, but it was only a month later that my school load suddenly increased, especially nearing ACT season and preparing for college with the end of my junior year. My time on the build team was inevitably cut short, deciding that it was too much responsibility ontop of the already piling ones. But, my short time in the community team was nothing less than great. That being said, I left for roughly three months before returning, bringing me to where I am today.

What experiences do you have with roleplay?:
I’ve been on the server for a long time and roleplaying for even longer, which has given me a variety of experiences, not just here, but across other communities as well. Writing has always been a major part of my life and naturally ties into roleplay, especially as an AP English student planning to major in English. With that in mind, I've interacted with plenty of players and factions on the server. The most notable I've taken part of are teams and crime. Despite the reputation of the latter, I've had the most enjoyable experiences in roleplay within these communities, thanks to the people within them and the opportunities and unique scenarios/experiences they provide. Of course, the opportunities from these factions are what you make of it. And that's whats so special about roleplay, you aren't the sole mastermind behind your character or their story, and the same goes for other players, it's a collaborative effort.
What is your motivation for applying?
The reason I'm applying isn't just because I want to expand my scope, but because I genuinely enjoy detailed, serious roleplay. I've had a number of friends and acquaintances in the faction, and have heard both the ups and downs of the role. And although I've been a part of a number of factions and groups, I found myself seeking something more intense, and I know that's something EMS would bring. Also, as someone with many nurses in my family in real life, I've always found medical topics and protocols interesting, and it'd be something I'd enjoy dabbling in and expand my knowledge on especially with my writing.
Which role are you applying for? (Doctor or Psychiatrist)
I'm applying for the role of Psychiatrist.
What knowledge do you have of the roles within the Hospital Faction? (This is to gauge at your current understanding of the faction prior to acceptance)

So, here it goes!
There are three departments total. Going in order its psychiatrists, doctors, and emergency. Psychiatrists are different from doctors, in the way they deal with emotional and mental conditions. This is usually done through therapy and medicine. Doctors, on the other hand, deal with external conditions, specifically physical ailments. This is treated using a variety of things such as surgery, physical therapy, medicine, and other medical practices. My understand of the emergency department is a bit slimmer, but from what I understand (I might be wrong!) the emergency department is only open to experienced players who have been in the faction for awhile.
That being said, within those departments there are five different positions;

Korean

Character Backstory (Optional):
In the 18th century Hanseong (modern-day Seoul) Korea during the Joseon Dynasty (1392 - 1910), a son from a wealthy family was born named Ji-Yeong Takahashi. Ji-Yeong was a highly intelligent man and highly skilled despite coming from a poor family. Ji-Yeong managed to secure a government position which was the Ministry of Taxation, one of the six ministries. He managed to convince his way to his position without anybody knowing he lied his way into this position. See, a thing his father taught him was manipulation and demonic worship rituals. Long before Ji-Yeong was hired for the Ministry of Taxation position, he was just a merchant at his family store. He didn’t want this to define his life so he made a deal with the devil so they say. Ji-Yeong demanded the “devil” to quote “give me a position of government where those bastards would know what it’s like to be in the position of power.” So the “devil” gave Ji-Yeong what he wanted, a position of power that demands from others but at a cost. Ji-Yeong had to sacrifice his "humanity" in order to gain the power of government. Making him quote unquote “demon” and everyone in his future bloodline will inherit this trait of “horns.” Ji-Yeoung gladly accepted it, unknowingly cursing his bloodline and future descendents. After receiving the power he wanted, Ji-Yeoung rose through the ranks before landing on the position at the Ministry of Taxation. But the price of power was never forgotten. Behind closed doors, whispers of dark rituals persisted, Ji-Yeong would vanish at night to commune with the “devil” that had granted him his powers. Over time, the influence of the pact seeped deeper into his family, shaping the morals, desires, and temperament of his descendants. Many who bore the bloodline would rise to prominence, yet all would carry the weight of Ji-Yeong’s choice, inheriting not just his cunning, but the shadow of the demon within. After some time, the influence of the pact seeped deeper into his family, shaping the morals of his descendants. Many who bore the bloodline would carry the weight of Ji-Yeong’s choice, inheriting not just his cunning, but the shadow of the “demon” unknown to him. After years of this deal from a man who wanted power, Ji-Yeong’s time was up and mysteriously disappeared into the night.
In the coastal city of Kobe, nestled in the backstreets of the Hyogo port was a two-story wooden structure. Peering in from the bustling street, it'd appear as if you were looking into another era. Its traditional tiled roof and weathered ShiKai walls straight out of the early 1900s. But upon closer inspection, there'd be signs of renovation—freshly varnished wood, the faint of hum of appliances, and the recently poured concrete that led to the entrance. Etched just above the doorway read;
sato's—Long Family Clinic
sato's grandparents, both renowned physicians who fled Korean to Japan, brought their skills to the Western port. Fortunately, with the urgent need for medics at the time, they quickly found work. They eased into the everyday life of the port-city and their earnings eventually allowed them to open up their own practice. However, they had just one hurdle before they were allowed to do so. Japan doesn't allow foreigners to buy property, and in order to naturalize, they were required to take on a Japanese surname.
At first, they were reluctant to let go of their origins, eventually choosing that if they were going to settle here, it'd be better to fit in. They chose 'Oboro', but didn't hesitate to pay homage to their heritage, naming their clinic after their Chinese surname. They looked after the citizens of Kobe, and the citizens in turn depended on them. Families from around the area frequented the clinic, even for small things such as a mere twisted ankle.
It went on like this for a long time, Sato's father eventually taking over the clinic along with his relative and uncles who also immigrated . Leading up to satos’s birth, Daiki Takahashi—his father—met the woman who would later become Takahashi Oboro. They crossed paths while Daiki was still training at the clinic; Hibana, a slightly older woman, had come seeking employment.
Enamored with her, Daiki pleaded with his parents in hopes of winning her over. You know how simple things were back then—and Hibana, already past the typical marriage age, wasn’t opposed. oboro gave birth to sato a year into their marriage, and a few years later, to Reijiro. The two boys were born and raised in the clinic. They spent their childhood wandering the wide halls and running minuscule errands for the staff.
Growing up, Sato had little interest in the clinic’s affairs—and even less in becoming a doctor. Instead, he preferred darting through the back alleys of Hyobo, collecting snacks as well as odds and ends from elderly locals who were far too kind to the mischievous boy. From adolescence into his teenage years, he never quite outgrew his trouble-making tendencies.
Satos got swept into delinquency—bleaching his hair, racing around on mopeds, and engaging in petty theft. He wasn’t home often yet every time he returned, he’d hear his father nagging about his appearance or the clinic. It was always something with him. His mother, on the other hand, never seemed to pay much mind, if at all.
This went on until his first year of high school. His father, finally deciding he had enough, enrolled Satos into private boarding school. With his current grades and record, Satos wasn’t able to enroll into any good high schools, so they didn’t have a choice but to pay him in. Daiki had high expectations for Satos. The boy was meant to take over the clinic, their family’s prized possession, and his behavior just wasn’t cutting it.
One day while Sato was walking around town, looking for shops, he met a woman named Ailiseu Jeon or better known Angel who happened to be his age at the time (which was 18 at the time). Sato asked Angel where a shop was which she pointed in the direction of it and showed him where it was. They started to talk to each other whilst walking. Sato explained what had happened with him and his parents to Angel, still feeling hurt from the situation. But surprisingly to him, Angel understood him completely, having gone something similar to her with her own family. Sato was shocked by this revelation from Angel who seemed like a girl who had everything at her fingertips but it wasn’t the case. Over time, they grew as friends.
SECTION 2: MEDICAL HISTORY
What is your character’s medical specialty? Why did they choose this focus?
sato specializes in family medicine, which often comes with a broad range of patients. Although, it wasn't him who chose this path, but his family. The Oboro clan (originally the Long family) fled to Japan Post World-War II, his grandparents, who were both physicians, brought their medicinal knowledge with them to Kobe and preserved it. Over time, the clan continued its longstanding tradition of healers and physicians, adapting their practices as the world modernized.
However, family pressure wasn't the sole reason for him to pursue family medicine, he was exposed firsthand to the many patients they treated and the wide variety of health issues they faced. Naturally, the tender hearted child ached for these people. Watching their health improve under his brothers and sister inspired him to follow in their footsteps, choosing to care for people in each stage of life.
Does your character have any work experience in medical positions?
Sato has a hefty background in medical positions, stapled to his resume would be as follows;
[X] Kobe Central Medical Hospital, Kobe, Japan
Medical Intern | 2010 - 2012
☓ Gained experience in patient communication
☓ Preformed basic medicinal procedures under supervision
☓ Monitored and recorded patient progress
☓ Learned to interpret lab results and diagnostic imaging
[X] Oboro Family Clinic, Kobe, Japan (Closed)
Family Physician | 2012 - 2023
☓ Completed rotations in internal medicine, pediatrics, and emergency departments
☓ Conducted routine check-ups, screenings, and preventive care
☓ Managed clinic operations during periods of financial and staffing challenges
☓ Mentored junior staff and medical trainees in clinical and patient care procedures
SECTION 3: CHARACTER KNOWLEDGE
Describe your character; how do they look, what makes them unique? How would they be perceived by others?
sato is a middle-aged man with a healthy figure, maintained by only by his dedication to his health. His features were elegant, marked by subtle imperfections that only time could have refined. He possessed natural tact, and whether his face was thick or thin would be impossible to guess. Even his moments of panic seemed to carry a quiet sense of self-assuredness that could only come with his experience. Despite this composed exterior, Sato was far from humorles. Having worked with patients young and old, he knew the value of lightness. He wasn't above idle chit-chat or corny jokes, after all, it was his job to ease others burdens.
How does your character act around the hospital?
He doesn’t demand authority as sato is a non-confrontational individual, but it naturally gathers around him due to his reliability. Interns might be intimidated by him at first, but over time they realize he’s not unkind—just incredibly serious about his work. Those lucky enough to earn his trust might even catch a sarcastic remark or a deadpan joke in the middle of a stressful shift as he likes to keep the mood lighthearted even at the most stressful times.
Off Duty:
Off the clock ,Sato's guard doesn’t come down entirely, but it softens quite a lot. He’s quieter than most in the break room or cafeteria, usually sitting with a book, a black coffee, or just watching the room while zoning out slightly. His exhaustion shows more plainly when he’s not “switched on,” but he still keeps a quiet readiness in his posture, like he's never fully relaxed and always anticipating something to happen. He likely spends his time off in the staff lounge tucked away from the crowd or walking the quieter parts of the hospital, letting his thoughts wander.
And if Sato chooses to leave the hospital that day, he'll often find himself at the beach or a pond taking care of his kid and feeding ducks. Almost as if he's trying to quiet his mind from whatever's bothering him. He doesn't usually bring much with him—maybe a book he won’t actually read or just his hands in his coat pockets, letting the sound of water and rustling wind doing a number on the leaves do the talking. It’s one of the few places he allows himself to breathe, away from sterile lights and urgent footsteps whilst alarms from hospital beds blaring. There’s something about the stillness of the wind, the trees rustling and the birds chirping, the quiet presence of nature, that makes things feel a little less heavy and more relaxed. He rarely speaks during these moments, but if someone happened to sit beside him, he wouldn’t mind the company—as long as they understood the silence is part of the point.
Does your character function better on their own or with others?
Sato is a versatile man, having been in the field for so long, there was no doubt he got used to fluctuating situations. His ability to work on his own and with others are on par with each other. However, he'd undoubtedly prefer to be around other people. Even with distractions and idle talk he preforms well, and if anything, it motivates him.

In this role, you can help patients with mental health diagnosis’, as well as treatment to them. Adding onto this, you give out therapy sessions to patients, As well as monthly ones to KPD officers.

However, he'd undoubtedly prefer to be around other people. Even with distractions and idle talk he preforms well, and if anything, it motivates him.
What plans does your character have for the future?
All Sato wants to do is settle down in his life, and live peacefully. he isn’t wanting much more, and only plans to help out others.
If anything else, it’d possibly be adopting a child. he believes that it could make him feel better having one, as well as making him know that he helped out someone else who was in a rougher place. Though, to see if that would actually happen will come another time.
How is your character perceived by others? How does it contrast with their perception of themself?
Sato is a man who is classified under many things by others, ‘angel’ is one of them. Many people find him way of not always getting into arguments to be a life with barely anything in it. Outside of that, he could be seen as someone quiet, someone who’s somewhat normal.
This doesn’t contrast much with him perception of himself, with his only difference being how he sees himself as someone who’s only useful for his skills. If he’s not helping someone, he may as well be gone!

| Attending | These are considered senior members of their respective departments. They know the ropes and are allowed to train the trainee's |
| Supervisor | Another senior position with only two slots, (one in the Paramedic's case) in charge of overseeing the Attending doctors as well as the trainee's trainings. |

Making him quote unquote “demon” and everyone in his future bloodline will inherit this trait of “horns.” Ji-Yeoung gladly accepted it, unknowingly cursing his bloodline and future descendents. After receiving the power he wanted, Ji-Yeoung rose through the ranks before landing on the position at the Ministry of Taxation. But the price of power was never forgotten. Behind closed doors, whispers of dark rituals persisted, Ji-Yeong would vanish at night to commune with the “devil” that had granted him his powers. Over time, the influence of the pact seeped deeper into his family, shaping the morals, desires, and temperament of his descendants. Many who bore the bloodline would rise to prominence, yet all would carry the weight of Ji-Yeong’s choice, inheriting not just his cunning, but the shadow of the demon within. After some time, the influence of the pact seeped deeper into his family, shaping the morals of his descendants. Many who bore the bloodline would carry the weight of Ji-Yeong’s choice, inheriting not just his cunning, but the shadow of the “demon” unknown to him. After years of this deal from a man who wanted power, Ji-Yeong’s time was up and mysteriously disappeared into the night.
In the coastal city of Kobe, nestled in the backstreets of the Hyogo port was a two-story wooden structure. Peering in from the bustling street, it'd appear as if you were looking into another era. Its traditional tiled roof and weathered ShiKai walls straight out of the early 1900s. But upon closer inspection, there'd be signs of renovation—freshly varnished wood, the faint of hum of appliances, and the recently poured concrete that led to the entrance. Etched just above the doorway read;
sato's—Long Family Clinic
sato's grandparents, both renowned physicians who fled Korean to Japan, brought their skills to the Western port. Fortunately, with the urgent need for medics at the time, they quickly found work. They eased into the everyday life of the port-city and their earnings eventually allowed them to open up their own practice. However, they had just one hurdle before they were allowed to do so. Japan doesn't allow foreigners to buy property, and in order to naturalize, they were required to take on a Japanese surname.
At first, they were reluctant to let go of their origins, eventually choosing that if they were going to settle here, it'd be better to fit in. They chose 'Oboro', but didn't hesitate to pay homage to their heritage, naming their clinic after their Chinese surname. They looked after the citizens of Kobe, and the citizens in turn depended on them. Families from around the area frequented the clinic, even for small things such as a mere twisted ankle.
It went on like this for a long time, Sato's father eventually taking over the clinic along with his relative and uncles who also immigrated . Leading up to satos’s birth, Daiki Takahashi—his father—met the woman who would later become Takahashi Oboro. They crossed paths while Daiki was still training at the clinic; Hibana, a slightly older woman, had come seeking employment.
Enamored with her, Daiki pleaded with his parents in hopes of winning her over. You know how simple things were back then—and Hibana, already past the typical marriage age, wasn’t opposed. oboro gave birth to sato a year into their marriage, and a few years later, to Reijiro. The two boys were born and raised in the clinic. They spent their childhood wandering the wide halls and running minuscule errands for the staff.
Growing up, Sato had little interest in the clinic’s affairs—and even less in becoming a doctor. Instead, he preferred darting through the back alleys of Hyobo, collecting snacks as well as odds and ends from elderly locals who were far too kind to the mischievous boy. From adolescence into his teenage years, he never quite outgrew his trouble-making tendencies.
Satos got swept into delinquency—bleaching his hair, racing around on mopeds, and engaging in petty theft. He wasn’t home often yet every time he returned, he’d hear his father nagging about his appearance or the clinic. It was always something with him. His mother, on the other hand, never seemed to pay much mind, if at all.
This went on until his first year of high school. His father, finally deciding he had enough, enrolled Satos into private boarding school. With his current grades and record, Satos wasn’t able to enroll into any good high schools, so they didn’t have a choice but to pay him in. Daiki had high expectations for Satos. The boy was meant to take over the clinic, their family’s prized possession, and his behavior just wasn’t cutting it.
One day while Sato was walking around town, looking for shops, he met a woman named Ailiseu Jeon or better known Angel who happened to be his age at the time (which was 18 at the time). Sato asked Angel where a shop was which she pointed in the direction of it and showed him where it was. They started to talk to each other whilst walking. Sato explained what had happened with him and his parents to Angel, still feeling hurt from the situation. But surprisingly to him, Angel understood him completely, having gone something similar to her with her own family. Sato was shocked by this revelation from Angel who seemed like a girl who had everything at her fingertips but it wasn’t the case. Over time, they grew as friends.
SECTION 2: MEDICAL HISTORY
What is your character’s medical specialty? Why did they choose this focus?
sato specializes in family medicine, which often comes with a broad range of patients. Although, it wasn't him who chose this path, but his family. The Oboro clan (originally the Long family) fled to Japan Post World-War II, his grandparents, who were both physicians, brought their medicinal knowledge with them to Kobe and preserved it. Over time, the clan continued its longstanding tradition of healers and physicians, adapting their practices as the world modernized.
However, family pressure wasn't the sole reason for him to pursue family medicine, he was exposed firsthand to the many patients they treated and the wide variety of health issues they faced. Naturally, the tender hearted child ached for these people. Watching their health improve under his brothers and sister inspired him to follow in their footsteps, choosing to care for people in each stage of life.
Does your character have any work experience in medical positions?
Sato has a hefty background in medical positions, stapled to his resume would be as follows;
[X] Kobe Central Medical Hospital, Kobe, Japan
Medical Intern | 2010 - 2012
☓ Gained experience in patient communication
☓ Preformed basic medicinal procedures under supervision
☓ Monitored and recorded patient progress

☓ Completed rotations in internal medicine, pediatrics, and emergency departments
☓ Conducted routine check-ups, screenings, and preventive care
☓ Managed clinic operations during periods of financial and staffing challenges
☓ Mentored junior staff and medical trainees in clinical and patient care procedures
SECTION 3: CHARACTER KNOWLEDGE
Describe your character; how do they look, what makes them unique? How would they be perceived by others?
sato is a middle-aged man with a healthy figure, maintained by only by his dedication to his health. His features were elegant, marked by subtle imperfections that only time could have refined. He possessed natural tact, and whether his face was thick or thin would be impossible to guess. Even his moments of panic seemed to carry a quiet sense of self-assuredness that could only come with his experience. Despite this composed exterior, Sato was far from humorles. Having worked with patients young and old, he knew the value of lightness. He wasn't above idle chit-chat or corny jokes, after all, it was his job to ease others burdens.
How does your character act around the hospital?
He doesn’t demand authority as sato is a non-confrontational individual, but it naturally gathers around him due to his reliability. Interns might be intimidated by him at first, but over time they realize he’s not unkind—just incredibly serious about his work. Those lucky enough to earn his trust might even catch a sarcastic remark or a deadpan joke in the middle of a stressful shift as he likes to keep the mood lighthearted even at the most stressful times.
Off Duty:
Off the clock ,Sato's guard doesn’t come down entirely, but it softens quite a lot. He’s quieter than most in the break room or cafeteria, usually sitting with a book, a black coffee, or just watching the room while zoning out slightly. His exhaustion shows more plainly when he’s not “switched on,” but he still keeps a quiet readiness in his posture, like he's never fully relaxed and always anticipating something to happen. He likely spends his time off in the staff lounge tucked away from the crowd or walking the quieter parts of the hospital, letting his thoughts wander.
And if Sato chooses to leave the hospital that day, he'll often find himself at the beach or a pond taking care of his kid and feeding ducks. Almost as if he's trying to quiet his mind from whatever's bothering him. He doesn't usually bring much with him—maybe a book he won’t actually read or just his hands in his coat pockets, letting the sound of water and rustling wind doing a number on the leaves do the talking. It’s one of the few places he allows himself to breathe, away from sterile lights and urgent footsteps whilst alarms from hospital beds blaring. There’s something about the stillness of the wind, the trees rustling and the birds chirping, the quiet presence of nature, that makes things feel a little less heavy and more relaxed. He rarely speaks during these moments, but if someone happened to sit beside him, he wouldn’t mind the company—as long as they understood the silence is part of the point.
Does your character function better on their own or with others?
Sato is a versatile man, having been in the field for so long, there was no doubt he got used to fluctuating situations. His ability to work on his own and with others are on par with each other. However, he'd undoubtedly prefer to be around other people. Even with distractions and idle talk he preforms well, and if anything, it motivates him.

All Sato wants to do is settle down in his life, and live peacefully. he isn’t wanting much more, and only plans to help out others.

How is your character perceived by others? How does it contrast with their perception of themself?
Sato is a man who is classified under many things by others, ‘angel’ is one of them. Many people find him way of not always getting into arguments to be a life with barely anything in it. Outside of that, he could be seen as someone quiet, someone who’s somewhat normal.
This doesn’t contrast much with him perception of himself, with his only difference being how he sees himself as someone who’s only useful for his skills. If he’s not helping someone, he may as well be gone!
