Hello! I'm Darius, the current Wilde 1ic and the person some players, veterans, returning folk or completely new on Discovery, may have met in recent months flying about in my super snowflakey Donau cruiser in the Omicrons, either for RP or PvP; I sincerely hope that I'll get to see at least some of those individuals work with us or even join the faction, as ultimately the goal here is to create an enjoyable environment. Down the road, some time earlier in 2024, I decided its best to have another go at a Wild faction, though one focused less on posting walls of blue texts and more about the lore niche that the Rheinland Wild will have -- revolving less around playing the role of "infiltrator" and more about that good ol' combo of fanaticism, a hard on for creating chaos and topped with a sprinkle of crazy. For better (or worse, we'll see) this faction attempt is in full swing and we've just one month till we get a proper reply on the officialdom. But! That is not the aim of this thread.
As it currently stands, the faction has a trial period policy for recruitment, handled seldom outside our Discord server, and with a focus on knowing the lore aspects of the new infected lore (you may read 'em yourself at this link) and playing along as a tightly knit squad of friends. But I realize that this may lock some others, not present in our Discord server or not knowing we operate mainly through Discord (or that we may have an invite-only system, heavens forbid). So, ahead by a few days of the Rheinland Update -- Patch 5.1 -- and stretching until the start of June, this thread will be open and, to my best attempts, bumped every Sunday or so to allow players not yet in our Discord server to apply for membership.
Obviously, this will require you to join the server if accepted, but otherwise, simply fill the form below. We'll reach out to you in about 1 day or so tops from posting over PMs. As a "PS" of sorts, please keep in mind that having an already-established character won't be a necessity and I'm more than happy to help out with lore aspects.

Die Wilde Jagd - Wild which operate, and infiltrate Rhienland.
What is the Infiltrator Caste? How does Die Wilde Jagd differ from it?
Infiltrator Caste is a force guided by a single K'hara advisor linked to the mindshare, where as Die Wilde Jagd, operate more autonomously, with no direct advisor guiding them.
What is Die Wilde Jagd's connection to the K'Hara Mind? Include as much detail and nuance as you know.
Though Die Wilde Jagd has since reconnected with mindshare of K'hara, they continue their actions and plans autonomously.
As I understand, to save a cat from a tree, the Die Wilde Jagds would take a chainsaw to the tree, or maybe plant some dynamite beneath, to retrieve said cat. Where as K'hara would simply use a ladder.
In essence the K'hara would look upon Die Wilde Jagd's as weirdo's with illogical ways of doing things, though continue to entertain Die Wilde Jagds ways. In the grand scheme of things, it doesn't matter how to get to end goal, as long as the goal is met.
How would you play a character that embodies both the personality of the character and the personality of Die Wilde Jagd at the same time? What would that psychology look like?
Certainly at the start I could imagine some serious conflictions between the personalities. Certain choices which could be seen as simple, would be resolved by overly engineered brainstorms, and arguments - Though the "end result" would be the same.
Through time I would imagine the personalities begin to 'negotiate' with each other, finding common ground where possible, easing the process of decisions and attitudes.
Untill ultimately the personalities would 'merge' - Leaving little trace of the original personalities before. The human, could lean towards violence to resolve problems, where as the Die Wilde Jagds could learn empathy, or take pity on lesser beings.
How would you play a Hybrid that is formerly human, very clearly neither Nomad nor Human, and very aware of that fact? How would Die Wilde Jagd pacify that existential crisis? What would that psychology look like?
From the outside, I would imagine it would look similar to someone having psychotic episodes ever so often. Possibly change in appetite, hobbies, and behaviours. Someone left handed changing to become right handed.
The Die Wilde Jagd would slowly feed it's hosts it's desires, always leading them, keeping the host blind from the larger picture, whilst the host achieves it's small, short term goals, slowly relinquishing control.
If asked, would you change your answers to these questions (and by extension your roleplay) to better fit the intended goal for the faction?
I am very new to Wild / Nomad RP, so of course I will admit when I am out of my comfort zone. Any feedback, corrections, brain storms I will reflect upon.
I'm extending this onto the forums as an official recruitment post for an indefinite amount of time. If you want to join us from the forums, here's the place to do it.
