How did you find the faction? What caught your interest?
I've been curious about it's evolution since the beginnings. Solid writeup along with the effort you put into the faction was a big adventage and some valid point to start with. Your story also has caught my attention itself. A fresh approach towards the Blue Jelly Nation is also appreciated.

Have you read the faction writeups? Do you know what a Nomad is and do you have experience roleplaying them?
Yes, I have read it, although it's been quite a while ago, like nearly a year or so. I'll need to freshen my informations a bit and will do so shortly. Uni should provide enough time for catching up. I've been playing as a Nomad for quite a while, including some 5 or 6 ships in the Omicrons and 1 or 2 trial Morphs somewhere in Sirius over the time which's passed. Despite that, my Nomad knowledge nor nomspeech skills have not been the best,
I'll not try to make false assumptions by saying the opposite. I'm looking forward to improving my skills and knowledge by flying along some experienced players.

How long have you been playing Freelancer? Do you have experience leading factions, etc.? Have you ever been sanctioned and if yes, why?
Since about 2 weeks before registering on forums. I've led BMM- for a short while, so I kinda know the necessary requirements which OFL has to deal with everyday. I've been sanctioned only once, not so far after my arrival at Discovery. It's been shooting withno RP at some Junker ship if I recall it properly. Well, I've learned my lesson and it hasn't repeated since then.

As a Nomad, you are the antagonist. Are you aware that you are to play this role and that others will treat you as such? Do you have a problem with that?
I'm kinda familar with people's reactions to Nomads. No problems with that.

Do you have roleplay experience outside of Discovery? Did you ever play on other Freelancer servers and if yes, which?
FLU, there's been a friendly group of people to hang with. Over the time, some of them have left, some are not logging as often as they used to and I've made my way to Discovery then, which's became my new home since then.

We have a clear code of conduct. We expect decent behaviour from our members on the forums as well in the game. Do you believe you will be able to do that? Do you acknowledge that your membership can be terminated if you violate the faction code of conduct or the server rules?
I'm trying to be an user-friendly user. I might not be perfect, but harmful behaviour has never been my intention.

While not strictly necessary, getting a grip on your roleplaying ability is crucial for our evaluation process. Please provide links to roleplay that you have done on the Discovery Forums as well as a list of character names you use ingame.
Well, I've never been a RP-whore, I won't say the opposite. I've never had enough time to develop a detailed char stories. There've been some attempts, but none of those has actually reached it's end nor aimed borders.

Application: conmann35

How did you find the faction? What caught your interest?
I've had a passive eye on the Vagrants that's been growing since its intial inception. The faction's unique take on Nomad roleplay and the structures it has put in place are a strong draw.

Have you read the faction writeups? Do you know what a Nomad is and do you have experience roleplaying them?
I've given the Vagrant lore/writeups a good looking at, and I'm pretty sure I know what a "space-squid" is although I have no practical experience with them whatsoever from their perspective, though.

How long have you been playing Freelancer? Do you have experience leading factions, etc.? Have you ever been sanctioned and if yes, why?
I have over a year's experience or so with Disco at this point. I am the current faction leader of SCRA and take up active roles in other factions as well. I've never been sanctioned.

As a Nomad, you are the antagonist. Are you aware that you are to play this role and that others will treat you as such? Do you have a problem with that?
Performing hostile actions within the scope of roleplay is nothing that I will have a problem with. Let the world tremble.

Do you have roleplay experience outside of Discovery? Did you ever play on other Freelancer servers and if yes, which?
Disco is my only Freelancer server and that will probably remain as such. I've some other forms of roleplay experience outside of Disco.

We have a clear code of conduct. We expect decent behaviour from our members on the forums as well in the game. Do you believe you will be able to do that? Do you acknowledge that your membership can be terminated if you violate the faction code of conduct or the server rules?
I'm willing to follow any regulations necessary alongside global server rules.

While not strictly necessary, getting a grip on your roleplaying ability is crucial for our evaluation process. Please provide links to roleplay that you have done on the Discovery Forums as well as a list of character names you use ingame.
Personally I'm not a big fan of writing big biographies in Disco, I prefer much more "practical" RP for Discovery such as comms and in-game activities. As such I would direct you to any message dumps or communiques out there that I've done and to people in the factions I currently operate in.

RE: The Nomad Vagrants — Recruitment - Chronicron - 12-29-2017

Application: Chronicron (aka Opo)

How did you find the faction? What caught your interest?
The very concept of your faction. Who Vagrants really are and how they develop as characters, how they treat humans or basically everyone else around them.

As for the interest, I basically wanted to come back after the hiatus... pls?

Have you read the faction writeups? Do you know what a Nomad is and do you have experience roleplaying them?
I had to refresh my memory on both the old Nomlore and Vagrants' lore, so yeah, fresh and new.

How long have you been playing Freelancer? Do you have experience leading factions, etc.? Have you ever been sanctioned and if yes, why?
Well, I've played Freelancer single player campaign for a couple of times and it was the very moment when Nomads cought my attention. As for Disco, the first time I logged was somewhere in .85, however, I started playing more actively in 2014-2015.

And no, I've never led neither an unofficial, nor an official factions before. As for sanctions, I remember being sanctioned for two things - parking my zoner whale at Baden-Baden and shooting a random Bret GB in conn.

As a Nomad, you are the antagonist. Are you aware that you are to play this role and that others will treat you as such? Do you have a problem with that?

I swear to be independantly neutral/nice to every single member of your faction and keep in mind the common sence if it still exists.

RE: The Nomad Vagrants — Recruitment - Exe - 01-18-2018

Application: Exe

How did you find the faction? What caught your interest?
I was always looking for a good and active nomad faction. Especially the Vagrants caught my interest, because they are the remnants of the great Nomad war, what has alot of RP potential. Also as biologist it triggers me alot to witness the life of a fully autonomous, social and xenomorph creature.

Have you read the faction writeups? Do you know what a Nomad is and do you have experience roleplaying them?
I've readen it a few months ago, yes i know what a Nomad is and i have a bit experience about how to act as one. I did some RP as nomad indie with K'Hara ingame in my past.

How long have you been playing Freelancer? Do you have experience leading factions, etc.? Have you ever been sanctioned and if yes, why?
I am enjoying Freelancer since it was released when i was a kid. I have some experience in leading factions, but on a totally different Server with different conditions for them. So take that as a no. And of course i got a few sanctions in my past (like anybody). But they are too far away from today's timeline so remember them.

As a Nomad, you are the antagonist. Are you aware that you are to play this role and that others will treat you as such? Do you have a problem with that?
This is what i love about the nomads. They act versus nearly anyone. More enemies= more enjoyable situations.

Do you have roleplay experience outside of Discovery? Did you ever play on other Freelancer servers and if yes, which?
I've played on the HHC Server before i jumped into Disco. And i've got no RP experience out of Disco.

We have a clear code of conduct. We expect decent behaviour from our members on the forums as well in the game. Do you believe you will be able to do that? Do you acknowledge that your membership can be terminated if you violate the faction code of conduct or the server rules?

RE: The Nomad Vagrants — Recruitment - Keltrayn - 05-08-2018

Application: Keltrayn

How did you find the faction? What caught your interest?
I found this faction listed as one of the official factions in the Nomads section. I am a returning player and had a little experience as a K'Hara Nomad before. The Nomad Vagrants seem more interesting due to the fact that Vagrants are supposedly a small group of returning Nomads from the other galaxy. K'Hara do not see Vagrants as their own which makes it possible to explore RP with other Nomad factions. Since K'Hara and Vagrants do not share the same mindshare network it seems as though we are two different houses which makes it fascinating. Plus the military power K'Hara has is more advanced (looking from RP perspective) and taking the weaker side is always more fun.

Have you read the faction writeups? Do you know what a Nomad is and do you have experience roleplaying them?
I have read Faction Information ; Evolutionary System ; Trials faction writeups. I do understand that Nomad is a creation of Daam K'Vosh and Vagrants are returning Nomads from another galaxy. I had some experience playing as a K'Hara Nomad before, but it was long ago I would start as a newbie in Nomad RP.

How long have you been playing Freelancer? Do you have experience leading factions, etc.? Have you ever been sanctioned and if yes, why?
I have played Freelancer in 2012-2014 now I am returning. No experience leading factions and never been sanctioned.

As a Nomad, you are the antagonist. Are you aware that you are to play this role and that others will treat you as such? Do you have a problem with that?
Yes, I am aware. But that is what makes it interesting. Flying as a LN in Liberty space where most factions are Friendly or Neutral to you and rarely finding a few rogues is not the game I am looking for. Plus I really hate Order so becoming a Nomad seems like a must.

Do you have roleplay experience outside of Discovery? Did you ever play on other Freelancer servers and if yes, which?
Sadly, only Freelancer server I have ever played is Discovery.

We have a clear code of conduct. We expect decent behaviour from our members on the forums as well in the game. Do you believe you will be able to do that? Do you acknowledge that your membership can be terminated if you violate the faction code of conduct or the server rules?
Yes, I agree my membership could be terminated in case I do not follow the rules or misbehave/swear etc.

While not strictly necessary, getting a grip on your roleplaying ability is crucial for our evaluation process. Please provide links to roleplay that you have done on the Discovery Forums as well as a list of character names you use ingame.
I do not really use forums that much. I mainly just read forums and look for information, tips, advices and such. Right now my characters are:

Peril (HL ID I use it just for fun and PVP)

RE: The Nomad Vagrants — Recruitment - Miaou - 08-24-2018

Application: Miaou

How did you find the faction? What caught your interest?
Found the Vagrants through word of mouth, then running into them ingame on my own Nomad-adjacent ship. Having flown with the faction a few times and having looked into the lore and various aspects of how the faction is ran, I believe it is a good step in Nomadic RP and wish to partake.

Have you read the faction writeups? Do you know what a Nomad is and do you have experience roleplaying them?
I have read it, and know what they are. I've long experience playing Nomads, Infected/Wild, and a Hybrid.

How long have you been playing Freelancer? Do you have experience leading factions, etc.? Have you ever been sanctioned and if yes, why?
Been playing Discovery since early 2009. I've led the official GRN, GRP, GMS, Aoi Iseijin factions, momentarily led the BMM official faction, and led a number of indie factions such as the RG| (Ryukyu Guild).

The only sanction I remember was due to me naming a tridente "Dabtastic.Tridab". It was seen as offensive to a then forum moderator named "Dab" and was deleted.

As a Nomad, you are the antagonist. Are you aware that you are to play this role and that others will treat you as such? Do you have a problem with that?
I am aware, and none.

Do you have roleplay experience outside of Discovery? Did you ever play on other Freelancer servers and if yes, which?
I have roleplaying experience via forum RP for other universes, and via other games where the setting is more focused on the roleplay than the PvP content, unlike Disco. The only other server for Freelancer that I have played on was the Tides of War server during it's beta and release.

We have a clear code of conduct. We expect decent behaviour from our members on the forums as well in the game. Do you believe you will be able to do that? Do you acknowledge that your membership can be terminated if you violate the faction code of conduct or the server rules?
I believe I can, and acknowledge the above.

Here is my story dump. My best effort went into Lucas Gerald/Vatan, Malachy Marshal, and Merlin. Do note that Merlin was a satire character, and was played with that in mind.

What is your Skype-name?
I use Discord mainly, but have Skype installed. I can give via PM if required, though rather not post them here.




RE: The Nomad Vagrants — Recruitment - Aaron_Cianci - 09-19-2018

Application: Aaron_Cianci

How did you find the faction? What caught your interest?
My Unioner character, Hunter Wolff, was brought into Omicron Lost without warning when accompanying Katherine Pennybrooke and Nyctophilia. We ran across Melia and another Vagrant and I experienced Nomad role play for the first time since joining Discovery. After that, I spent a lot of time reading up on Nomad role play in Discovery, and I created an independent Nomad because I wanted to embrace the challenge. My first night on my new Nomad character, I bumped into Melia again. I mentioned how much I want to embrace the RP challenge that is being a Nomad, and the stories that they can create. Melia suggested that joining a Nomad faction was really the only way to dive into the Nomad role play and have experts to learn from, so here I am!

Have you read the faction writeups? Do you know what a Nomad is and do you have experience roleplaying them?
I've completed a review of the Vagrant faction information, the Evolutions and the Trials. I understand the very basics of what a Nomad is - a creation of the Daam K'Vosh that is a silicone-based life form, left in Sirius to tend to it by them. I also understand the primary difference between the Slomon K'Hara - who remained in Sirius after the Nomad War - and the Vagrants - who were pulled through the Hypergate and had to fight (though it was more research) their way back to Sirius. However, I have not role played a Nomad before, but I am excited to take on the challenge.

How long have you been playing Freelancer? Do you have experience leading factions, etc.? Have you ever been sanctioned and if yes, why?
I started playing Freelancer when it first came out in 2003. Yes, I'm that old. I am new to Discovery though, having only been here about a month. I currently have a very active Unioner character and a new Liberty Police character, with role play examples provided below. I have never led a faction, and feel that I need more experience in Discovery's world before I could ever even consider a leadership position. Right now it is my time to learn. I have never been sanctioned.

As a Nomad, you are the antagonist. Are you aware that you are to play this role and that others will treat you as such? Do you have a problem with that?
Although Nomads are primarily an antagonist, I have learned that they are not to all humans. I've seen in my brief role play interactions that there are humans who have non-antagonistic relationships with the Nomads. That being said, I know that's the exception, not the rule. I have no issue with being everyone's enemy, and being the focus of destruction for most humans in Sirius. I think it just adds another fun element to the challenge of being a Nomad in role play.

Do you have roleplay experience outside of Discovery? Did you ever play on other Freelancer servers and if yes, which?
I am currently 36, and I've been role playing since I was 15 years old. I started out in play-by-email Star Trek games when I was a kid, which expanded into tabletop role playing and independent co-authored story writing. These stories and role plays have spanned genres from science fiction to fantasy to political dramas to romance. I have played on other Freelancer servers (whose names I cannot remember) back when I first started playing the game, but I never really role played on them - just the game mechanics. My time on Discovery has been my first in-depth role playing experience in the Freelancer universe, and it has been amazing so far. I'd be honored to be considered for the Vagrants to be my next step in expanding my role play experience.

We have a clear code of conduct. We expect decent behaviour from our members on the forums as well in the game. Do you believe you will be able to do that? Do you acknowledge that your membership can be terminated if you violate the faction code of conduct or the server rules?
I am fully capable of complying with the server and faction code of conduct, and promise to treat everyone with respect and dignity as a representative of the faction. I also understand that my membership is conditional, and can be revoked at any time.

RE: The Nomad Vagrants — Recruitment - Timinator - 10-20-2018

Application: Timinator

How did you find the faction? What caught your interest?
Originally by playing on Gammu| Charrs. I've had some roleplay with Melia and got interested in the Vagrants. The alternative roleplay of "less" aggressive and lingual higher advanced roleplay interests me, as well as the Jumpdrives of course Tongue (While still beeing able to kill everything as a nomad is supposed to do it).

Have you read the faction writeups? Do you know what a Nomad is and do you have experience roleplaying them?
Yes i'm familiar with the Vagrants Lore. I know what a Nomad is, i know the Vagrants, K'Hara, Indie and Wild Lore.

How long have you been playing Freelancer? Do you have experience leading factions, etc.? Have you ever been sanctioned and if yes, why?
I'm playing Freelancer quite a while, Disco since 2014. I did never lead any faction. Yes ive been sanctioned once, for ganking a Liner with half of the Gammu| faction. Evidence here: Link to my sanction

As a Nomad, you are the antagonist. Are you aware that you are to play this role and that others will treat you as such? Do you have a problem with that?
As a member of |Aoi, im already familiar with this fact, yes. No i do not have a problem with this.

Do you have roleplay experience outside of Discovery? Did you ever play on other Freelancer servers and if yes, which?
I have no RP exp outside of Disco, and i did not play on other Freelancer servers before.

We have a clear code of conduct. We expect decent behaviour from our members on the forums as well in the game. Do you believe you will be able to do that? Do you acknowledge that your membership can be terminated if you violate the faction code of conduct or the server rules?
I'm familair with the faction specific rules, and i always follow them as it is my personal belief to treat everyone with respect. Jokes are alright imo, but beeing offensive not. If im ever offensive by accident, i do apologize on my own without others needed telling me to do so.

RE: The Nomad Vagrants — Recruitment - Dark_Knight - 02-13-2019

Application: Dark_Knight

How did you find the faction? What caught your interest?
The LSF-Doomsday, on my character Sun Koken of the Bodhi I followed the Captain of the Doomsday, a IC friend of Suns to Omicron Delta. I had been there before, but this I was introduced to Vagrant.Daeira upon seeing how much detail was put into the language and behaviour of a alien species (That admittedly at the time I did not know much about OoRP) I went forth and decided to make Sun fearless and talk to Vagrant.Daeira. My character Sun is a devout Buddhist and a pacifist, so I was suprised that Buddhism seemed to gel well with the Vagrant's philosophy and behaviour.

It was a philosophical conversation about existentialism, Buddhism and what it means to be a self in the grand cosmos of the Universe. That was fascinating, that was rewarded and that was one of the best RP I have experienced in a long time especially for someone who joined two months ago now. I am a new player, yet I was treated with respect and not waved off just for being curious ICly

Have you read the faction writeups? Do you know what a Nomad is and do you have experience roleplaying them?
I have read the information here and on the old Wikipedia. I completely understand the differences now between the K'hara, base Nomads and indeed the Vagrants. At first I will be honest, I did not know the different but upon researching a little more I completely got them from my past experience RPing aliens in other RP settings.

How long have you been playing Freelancer? Do you have experience leading factions, etc.? Have you ever been sanctioned and if yes, why?
2 months. I did briefly play years ago but only for a week, I do have experience leading factions but not in Freelancer and I have never been sanctioned. My characters are Sun Koken of the [ND]TV-Bodhi and Doktor Valentina Margarethe Angelika Katrin Depperschmidt III of the UN|Hammonia

As a Nomad, you are the antagonist. Are you aware that you are to play this role and that others will treat you as such? Do you have a problem with that?
No, I enjoy the antagonist role

Do you have roleplay experience outside of Discovery? Did you ever play on other Freelancer servers and if yes, which?
Yes, I have over 10 years of roleplay experience outside of Discovery. Mostly I lead Vortigaunts on a HL2RP server that shall remain nameless as I don't want to break any rule of advertising and I found that the hivemind nature of Nomads plays into my experience as a Vortigaunt leader in HL2RP. I also have experience with Stalker RP, Fallout RP and some Discord RP I do on the side with some friends. I enjoy RP, I immensely enjoy rping characters that are out there from myself. OOC and IC are always separate for me, I will RP with people regardless of how new or how old they are. I despise elitism and think it actually reduces RP in the long run. I enjoy my time in creating characters that are interesting to RP with but also interesting for others to RP to. I find that a general openness to take risks, dive in and rejoice in RP is why I continue to this day to RP.

We have a clear code of conduct. We expect decent behaviour from our members on the forums as well in the game. Do you believe you will be able to do that? Do you acknowledge that your membership can be terminated if you violate the faction code of conduct or the server rules?
I will follow all rules to the letter and I accept any termination if it comes to it.
