Steam Name: Robby RP Name: Vice Admiral Jan Dodonna Steam ID: STEAM_0:0:99236673 Battalion or squad you are applying for: Naval / Admiral Experience:
5th Fleet - Private to First Sergeant (IFN 2017) This was the first battalion I had ever joined on a Clone Wars server and it is what ignited my passion for Star Wars RP. If I didn't join 5th Fleet I probably wouldn't have stayed as long as I have.
Naval - Crewman Apprentice to Commodore (IFN 2017)
Within a few months of joining Naval I made it to the rank of Commodore from Crewman Apprentice and stayed in Naval for a total of 6 months. I was around the age of 12 when I made it to Commodore and it remains one of my most prized achievements on a Clone Wars server. During my time as Naval I had many different responsibilities but the one that stuck with me throughout my time as an officer was managing our main document, I was in-charge of keeping the roster and all other naval docs up-to-date and nicely formatted. Some other roles that I held throughout my time in the Navy were Quartermaster Lead where I and a few other Naval members kept an up-to-date list of all supplies on the ship as well as performed battalion inspections. I was a Medical Officer where I helped to ensure the quality of medical roleplay and provided ideas to be implemented into the medical handbook. I was one of the senior Naval officers in charge of making sure tryouts were hosted correctly and contributed to writing new tryouts for the Navy to use.
Shock Troopers - 2ndLT to Captain (IFN 2017)
After being in Naval for a while I needed a change of pace and the Shock Trooper battalion seemed like the place where I belonged at the time. When I joined I got a rank transfer and joined as a 2nd Lieutenant, a few weeks later I was promoted to Captain and was one of the leading officers of the Coruscant Guard sub-division. Throughout my time I made tryouts for CG and ensured that everyone in CG was carrying out the responsibilities given to us.
Naval - Crewman Apprentice to Lieutenant (Synergy 2018)
When I first joined I was close-minded and didn't like that things were different than what they were like on Icefuse. After being in Naval for a little while and meeting some amazing people, that helped to open my eyes and see that things don't have to be exactly what they were back in 2017. Throughout my time in Naval here I joined the intel team so that I could focus on up-keeping documents because that was the one thing I knew I was good at, towards the end of my time in Naval I was promoted to Intel Director. Towards the end of my NCO days I was promoted to Quartermaster Officer where I hosted Quartermaster Trainings and gave my input on changes to the program.
Base Ops/Naval - CSM to Vice Admiral (Current)
I joined at the very end of Boutineer's term on a reserves rank of CSM. During the first two months I was in Base Ops I primarily did comms rp during events where I tried to keep all battalions in touch with each other and made sure that everyone had the most up to date information on all situations. During the second month I was in Naval the Intel Team was opened up to applicants and I was primarily the only person to do intel work and was swiftly promoted to Intel Officer, when Foxey became Admiral I was promoted to Intel Director where I got a team of active personnel who all shared the work instead of one individual doing all of it. I spent roughly a month in each rank and have now made it to Vice Admiral. Throughout my time in Naval I have written our Handbook, Revised the Intel Handbook and have set up weekly meetings for our officers and the battalion. The responsibilities I have as Support Vice Admiral include overseeing the Medical and Intelligence branches of the Navy and ensuring that both branches are running smoothly. I have grown and learned a lot from being in this position and serving under two amazing Admirals, Bro and Foxey.
Why should you become Battalion Commander?: I should become Admiral because I have the drive and the motivation needed to help the Navy excel. During both Bro & Foxey's terms as Admiral I would constantly approach the Naval High Command with ideas on how to further improve the Navy and that has not stopped even with me reaching the rank of Vice Admiral. There is nothing I would not do for the betterment of the Navy. I care so much for the people in the Navy and the battalion itself that I couldn't stand if the Navy went under because this is the only battalion I have ever really been a part of in the server. When I achieved the rank of Rear Admiral my care towards the Navy only grew and I made it a personal goal of mine to also grow as a person so that I would one day be able to apply for this position. I still have work I need to do but it is not something that would keep me from applying towards this position of Admiral.
Do you understand the purpose of Naval on the server?: Yes
Availability: I am always available to be contacted via Discord. My in-game availability is as follows:
5:30 - 11 PM EST on Weekdays
3:00 PM EST to 12 AM EST on Weekends
Give a brief overview of your achievements on the server: Trainer Officer (Twice)

Intelligence Director within Naval (Twice)
Vice Admiral of the Navy
Do you have a microphone?: Yes
Where do you want the Naval to be at the end of your term?: At the end of my term I hope for there to be at least 2 Fleet Members on the server all the time, for there to be trainings more consistently than there are now and for Naval to have a good reputation with other players in the community.
How do you plan to change the Naval under your command?: I plan on implementing a tryout system that tests a person's ability to roleplay as well as their server knowledge to ensure we have a good quality of personnel within our ranks. I will be taking a more active approach to leadership by being in-game and leading roleplay first hand instead of just preaching for it to happen. People within the Navy will be heavily encouraged to create roleplay at all times to bring some life into the server during the times where there are no events. How we currently go about promotions will also change and be based more off of roleplay and hard work in-game, the system will be based off of our current certs system with a fair bit of modifications to how it works.
Do you understand that if you go inactive that you will be removed from your position?: Yes
Do you understand that your position has a two month term limit and you must reapply after two months to maintain your Admiral rank?: Yes
