3. GAMEMASTER EXPERIENCE

• Previous GameMaster or Event Planning Experience (if any): (Include server names, roles, types of events, and duration. If none, state "None.")
  While I wasn’t officially a Creative Writer or Event Coordinator on Atlas Uprising, I frequently contributed behind the scenes by offering ideas and brainstorming with event staff. Outside of GMod, I’ve organized multiple events in other games like Minecraft, ranging from lighthearted minigames to more involved lore-based events. The most ambitious one lasted nearly two days and was driven by an overarching story and player objectives.

4. CREATIVITY AND SKILLS

• Why do you want to become a GameMaster for OdysseyRP? (Explain your motivation and how you can enrich the server’s roleplay.)
  As someone deeply invested in creative writing and already contributing to the lore, I feel being a GameMaster would allow me to further enrich the server's roleplay. I’ve noticed a lack of consistent roleplay activity and want to help reignite that spark by encouraging immersive experiences. I want to introduce unique, engaging events that inspire player creativity and bring the community together in memorable ways.

• What skills or qualities make you a good fit for a GameMaster role? (e.g., storytelling, creativity, knowledge of GMod tools, organization, etc.)
  I’m highly organized, reliable, and consistently available. I have a strong background in writing, storytelling, and character development. My ability to craft detailed, immersive narratives and coordinate them into engaging events makes me confident I’d be a valuable addition to the GameMaster team. I also have no problem adapting on the fly, and I enjoy collaborating with others to create fun, story-driven experiences.

5. EVENT PLANNING

• Describe an example roleplay event or storyline you would create for OdysseyRP: (Include the theme, objectives, player involvement, and how it enhances roleplay.)
  Theme: Mystery, Containment Breach, Psychological Horror
  Summary: After a sudden blackout affects a major sector of the Foundation, all communication is lost. When power returns, an entire research wing is found abandoned, with strange symbols burned into the walls and files corrupted beyond recognition. Security footage reveals glimpses of a humanoid entity that shouldn't exist in Foundation records.
  Objectives: Players must piece together what happened by searching the area, analyzing corrupted logs, and fending off anomalous threats. Certain players (with prior briefing) will be affected by subtle “memory tampering” effects and have hidden objectives.
  Enhancement: This event promotes investigation, encourages roleplay between departments, and gives players agency in how the story unfolds. It also creates a longer narrative thread that can be revisited in future events.

• How would you handle a situation where an event you’re running goes off track? (e.g., players derail the story or technical issues arise.)
  If players derail the story or unexpected issues occur, I’d adapt the event in real-time to maintain immersion. This could mean improvising new objectives, refocusing the narrative on a different threat or mystery, or using in-universe explanations (e.g., anomalous interference) to account for player decisions or technical issues. Flexibility and keeping the experience enjoyable are key. I'd always prioritize player engagement over rigid scripting, and I would ask another event coordinator to help out.

6. AVAILABILITY

• Weekly Availability: (Describe when you are typically available to plan and run events, e.g., weekdays, weekends, specific hours.)
  I’m available all week, at nearly any time, even as early as 5AM if needed. I’m very flexible, though I may occasionally take a day off for real-life appointments.

7. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

• Anything else you’d like to add? (Optional: Share extra details, creative ideas, or reasons why you’d be a great GameMaster.)
  I’ve written a number of documents and lore suggestions that could easily be converted into interactive, lore-rich events. I’m excited about the opportunity to collaborate with other storytellers and help expand OdysseyRP’s narrative depth while keeping things fun and engaging for everyone involved.

+1  Pouch at a leadership position is already good enough. I believe she is fit for this position and she would be a great addition to the Event Team.
