Battalion or squad you are applying for: Null
Experience: Alright so here it goes, gonna try and keep this brief so I don't make this an entire god damned essay.
Grand Master Of The Order Yoda:
As Yoda I had the fortune of being in the position when we swapped servers and therefore had the opportunity of setting Jedi up as it’s first Yoda. In this time I ensured the activity and strength of the Order as a whole, each branch, and the Jedi Council. And I personally feel that I left the Order in a strong place and gave it the tools it needed to succeed. I also worked hard to choose a successor who may not have been perfect but he worked hard and carried the torch going forward. During this time I built a reputation as someone who put RP first and focused on building a strong order full of hard working people interested in playing their characters to their fullest extent.
Null-12 A'den
This is probably position on the list, I am gonna break this position up by the time I was in it. I was Synergy’s first A’den under Dragon as Ordo and Duck as Kal Skirata. During my time in this position I strived for Null to have a strong reputation on the server, I went about this by working very closely with Rancor under Vint, during this time I built a very strong relationship with the members and leadership of Rancor and I believe left Null better than how I found it. I helped Duck setup the original outreach system as well as trying to carry myself in a way that created a feeling of professionalism and seriousness. In my recent stint as A'den before Tino chose me as Ordo I worked hard once again to build a strong reputation for Null, as well as focusing on SO BDE internally by advising Washington and Tino on policies moving forward.
Recon Regimental Commander
As Recon Regimental Commander I did my best to help the Battalions under me without at any point trying to be directly running the batt for them. I think a good Reg should be focused on helping the Battalion as an adviser and stepping in when they need to if a BCMD is making the wrong moves or has become inactive or a detriment to the Battalion. I ran training's when I had the opportunity and mostly focused my time on advising my battalions and attending their meetings to provide input.
Marshal Commander
In my short stint as Marshal Commander I focused, along with Ginyu who was a General at the time, on making changes to attempt to promote and improve roleplay on the server, as well as to allow each battalion to shine in their own individual way. During this time we focused mainly on encouraging roleplay on the server and working with each BCMD individually to find what each battalion needed from us in order to be the best they could be. What we found was that just by being active and attentive to the Battalions both in game and on TS we could actually make a huge impact on the enjoyment of the people playing in those battalions and therefore improve the numbers and roleplay experience of said battalions.
Why should you become a Battalion Commander?:
Well besides my extensive experience as a leader on this server I believe I should be the squad lead of Null because of my strong lore knowledge, roleplay focus, and seriousness. So to address the first of my points, I believe that I have the necessary lore knowledge to ensure that each member of Null, and SO BDE as a whole, has the tools and knowledge they need to play their character effectively and in a lore accurate manner. Armed with this knowledge I will put a huge amount of focus on being as lore accurate as possible in our representation of these characters who I have loved ever since I read the Karen Traviss Republic Commando Novels. My second point is my focus on roleplay. I want to make sure that our main focus is always on playing our characters and setting a strong example for the server. My main focus being on the roleplay experience itself, both in and out of Null, is what will allow me to ensure this occurs. My third point is my level of seriousness. You can ask anyone in SO BDE but when it comes to playing our characters I am borderline obsessive, I constantly talk about lore and give pointers on how each member of the regiment can improve on playing their character and being more lore accurate. I have also as Ordo made a huge push in Null towards being more serious on the server and we are now on a zero tolerance policy for any and all mingey behavior be it in public or in private.
Do you understand the lore of your battalion or squad?: Yes I have read every novel and adore these characters.

Estimate of how long you've played on Synergy Roleplay?: since the server opened in July of 2017
Do you have a microphone?: Yep
Where do you want your battalion or squad to be at the end of your term?:
I want Null to be in a strong place in three factors. 1 I want the squad to obviously be full and active as all Squad Leads are expected to. I want each of us to be active, and when we can't be we communicate and LOA as real life does happen. 2. I want the server and the rest of SO BDE to see Null as a shining example for how to roleplay seriously, how to act, and how to carry oneself on the server. This will come through setting and promoting a tempo of being Serious in roleplay, respectful to everyone at all times in and out of character (except where Null's character demands that we be rude although there is a big difference between being rude in and out of character) and helping other battalions when we have the opportunity to do so. And 3. I want Null to be full of people who genuinely care about one another and push each other to do better, I want Null to be a real brotherhood where each of us feels they can talk to the other about IRL stuff, play games with each other outside of the server, and that we look out for each other as best we can.
Do you understand that if you go inactive that you will be removed from your position?: Of course
Do you understand that your position has a three month term limit and you must reapply after three months to maintain your commander rank?: Yes I do.
