Basic Information Section
IC Character names, ranks, and brief overview of their duties/everyday activities in a list format:
Wolff von Haugwitz-Nachtnebel, SKK-Major
This character is a member of the Drachengruppe. The prime duty is guarding. I have to protect the members of the Sovereign Office, like the Praetor and the Emperor. Maintaining order within the Pantheon by enforcing strict security procedures is also an important everyday activity. This can be when I stand guard at the Pantheon to maintain order and ensure no one without proper authorization attempts to access it.
Dick Bigmackën, Ministerialdirektor
This character is a member of the Ministry of Truth and Society as the director of the Correspondence Office. Here I act as a reporter for the weekly newspaper. My everyday duties consist of walking around the city to interact with people to find fun and interesting stories for the paper that I can take pictures of and write about.
How long have you been roleplaying?: I have primarily roleplayed since around 2018/2019 when I started getting into the roleplay community on Garry's Mod.
Have you received any infractions i.e Notes/Bans? If so, what were they for and what could you have done to prevent getting them next time?: I do have one ban on my record, but no notes. The ban is from when I and another member of the community badmouthed each other in-game which turned into me talking shit to the person in LOOC, which I shouldn't have done of course but it happened, but that was a one-time thing that I have not done again after that situation. That person was a member of the staff team which ended up in him banning me for only two hours.
Staff Knowledge Section
What previous experience do you have as a staff member either within Garry’s Mod or the Nutscript Gamemode? I have not been a staff member within any Garry's Mod community or Nutscript Gamemode.
Why do you believe we should pick you for the Prometheus Networks Staff Team?[300 words or more]:
Even though I have never been a member of a staff team on Garry's Mod before, I believe I could be a valuable addition. People who know me from in-game, know me as a nice and fun person to be around. I have a good understanding of the rules, and I am sure I know the fairest way to enforce them. When it comes to conflicts I always try to resolve them calmly and in a manner where I ensure all parties feel heard.
A big strength of mine is availability. I live in Norway, which makes me six hours ahead of EST. I often have spare time during hours when other staff members from the States might not be online. I also tend to stay up for long periods, where I am still on at "late hours" on the server when there is a lack of staff. This is something that annoys me when I am on late and there is no one to do tickets which makes it difficult to recruit and maintain the minge-level to a minimum.
I am an active member of this server and have been in this gamemode community for years. I have an understanding of what members of the community like myself expect. I tend to go out of my way to newer players of the community quite often to help them out with understanding the server, and also getting them started.
This server is quite frankly a big part of my free time now that I have a lot of free time on my hands, and I really do enjoy my time here. And I'd be more than happy helping out with upholding the standards and contributing even more to the server to make sure it remains fun but also in order. I have never considered joining any staff team before, I understand what it's like to focus on having fun as a player. But, I also know when the line needs to be drawn.

What are the duties and responsibilities of the position you are applying for in your own words? [150 Words or more]:
As a staff member on the server, my responsibilities would mainly consist of enforcing server rules, assisting players through tickets, and resolving conflicts. I would also need to take a more active role on the forums, and I'd be expected to be more strict on my behavior in-game, to make sure I am seen as a good example. The staff team do serve as role models and is expected to set an example for others to follow.
I would also have to always attempt to create an environment where players respect the rules and take the roleplay seriously. By maintaining the immersion and the integrity even at late hours where it can be difficult because "mingey" behavior tends to be a lot more popular at these hours. This means such as, that I don't encourage other people to act like "minges", and make sure they understand the importance of maintaining seriousness in roleplay at all times.
