HELLO EXSILIUM! In honor of the CR meme going up tonight I have another opportunity to propose. If you want to get instant CR with someone newly introduced but will have too much zombie killing happening to tag the intro log, read on!
Kanaya here has recently gained a position in the Department of Initiative-Transport Relations (DITR) as an Assistant on account of her volunteering to coordinate a program pairing new arrivals with seasoned Transports starting this November to facilitate group missions. Read some reasons why this is a good idea in universe below:
In keeping with the spirit of the moonbase, we would prefer to keep veteran signups IC voluntary to an extent! (Someone else bringing up your character's name works in a pinch.) There are plenty of ways to have heard of this, such as the DITR post or the Town Hall Meeting. Pairups will be made with Kanaya, anyone who shows interest in helping her, and the aid of a computer program, which DITR liaison Sollux will write. (OOC I will be using discretion, possibly a random number generator, and whatever notes you write in your form, the last of which will be attributed to the interference of the computer program.)
Given the presence of zombies, the plan is to put up a post on the network by November 5th and have pairings formulated by November 7th. If you're interested, whether as a long-standing player or looking to app a new character, feel free to fill out either of the following forms below (you may wish to put VETERAN or NEWBIE in the subject line for maximum clarity):
You don't have to write a novel here but the more information you give, the better your matchup will be! A matchup is all you will receive from this post; any resulting missions will need to be conceived by your characters and written by you. Even whether your character is listed as a veteran or a newbie is up to you! There's a lot of range between someone who's taken thirty days to put their ear to the ground and get as integrated with the Initiative as possible, and a relatively recent arrival still struggling to get on their feet after a single month.

Read some reasons why this is a good idea in universe below:
- The current situation with the United Earth is dire, with the end of 3313 being the longest there's no risk of a lunar skirmish. Ideally as many transports should be engaged at once as possible.
- Sending transports alone has always been rarer than groups, however. With the Aristeas system not functioning, a Transport could go into the past alone, die, and have no way at all of informing the Initiative.
- This threatens both new and old Transports who lack traveling companions. Old transports' connections may be sent home at any time, while new transports often arrive literally alone in a universe of full strangers.
- Due to the lack of discrimination on the Transporter's part, new Transports may lack safety skills entirely, rendering them especially vulnerable.
- In general, the universe of Exsilium is novel to Transports by definition, and mentorship has its own benefits.
