A Guide To Roleplay Skins!

Recommended Posts

Description:

So many of you new players have probably spent hours finding your skin, but soon find someone else with your same exact one!

 

For example, this is a very common Elven skin I have found:

While yes, this skin will get you accepted into our community, is it really you or unique?

 

A few ways to get your unique skin:

  1. Make one! If you're good at skinning, find a reference picture and build off of that!
  2. There is TONS of talent already here on Lord of the Craft. Look around the forums and I'm sure you'll find a skin shop. Here's a few that are currently active:

          - Saint Pat's Skin Shop!

          - Skin shop of Jade and Leetles!

          - Wandering Skinners!

          - ~ Jade ~ (Offers free skins to newbies!)

          Of course you'll have to save up a bit of coin, though it is truly worth it!

   

      3. Search specific keywords in Planetminecraft, or other skin sites. I find Planetminecraft to be the             most unique, as they have a massive community of skinners. 

          Keywords to use while searching:

         

          For Dwarves:

          -Nord

          - Dwarf

         

          For Elves:

          You can actually be very specific on your sub-race, so I would suggest searching simply your Elf's           subrace.

         

          For Humans:

          - RPG

          - Roleplay

          - Human

 

          For Halflings:

          - Hobbit

          - Halfling

           

          For Orcs:

          -..... Orc

 

          You may have to use a variety of these keywords mashed together, though they are typically                 easy to find.

         

Do's Of getting a skin:

  

Do, make sure that this tag isn't under the post:

3e74ce3eab45cc668b8228efb42ebbe7.png

You can still use these skins, though it is likely someone on the server already uses it.

 

Do, make sure its unique, and very unlikely to be used already!

 

Do, make the skin to fit your character's personality and looks!

 

Don'ts of getting a Skin:

 

Don't, use a modern day skin. Example:

Don't, steal someone's skin that is already on the server! That's mean :c.

 

Exceptional Skin Examples:

Note to skinners! If I used one of your skins as an example, please comment which one is yours so I may give you credit!

a good place to send new players is Here

Also I do not charge new players (need leets to fix the post)

I will skin anyone applying to the server or still a newbie (less than a month on) for free

Sadly I am only good with female skins

The second example skin (male wood elf) is one of mine! Also, I wouldn't say that you can't use skins tagged with LotC. Some of my skins on PMC are for specific people, but some are just generic skins I put up there so other people can use. I indicate which ones are already in use on the page.

Good post, and any newbies are free to click my PMC link in my signature and look through the skins.  Most of them are generic or no longer used, just don't use any names of specific characters on there, those are all names of characters on LotC.

With a little tweaking they can be made to suit a variety of unique characters, I don't mind people using my skins as a base model if they want.  I've got over 200 skins posted and no time to make new ones now I'm afraid, but if any of them help a newbie, good!~

      Stein's Final Moments
      Alone, that was the feeling he felt, as he laid on the table in the surgical room in the Hohkmat clinic. Fear made itself  known as well, as he was recently cured from vampirism in that very room. The fear only grew as the restraints seemed to get tighter and the room spinning. Two others made there way in, separate, and at different times. They were once friends, family even if it came down to it. But his actions caused them to forget him as someone good. Hour's passed by as Stein, now called Almer, laid there on the surgical table, waiting for his fate to be decided. The door creaked open and his restraints came loose, allowing himself to sit up. His fate had been decided, the only thing he could do, was make it painless. The choices were simple, die a painful death, or be put to sleep, feeling nothing. The decision was simple, as he took the Nightsap juice given to him.
       
      Before drinking, memories of his life flashed in his mind, memories of his childhood on his farm with his family, that he had forgotten so long ago. Now taking a drink of the juice, memories of his time in Reinmar, the friends he made that grew into a family outside of his original home on the farm. And as he slowly drifted away, his memories were of his new friends, now wishing him dead. The last image that made it's way to his mind was everyone he knew, gathered together. Almost like a final farewell, even though he did not deserve it. As his death drew near a tear rolled down his face, before his heart stopped, his limbs and body turning cold, and his image, slowly fading away, into the darkness, as he drew his very last breath.
       
      --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      OOC NOTE:
      Finally, after almost three months of playing as Stein/Njal/Almer, I have finally made the decision to pk him. This wasn't the ending I wanted for him, however this is the ending I am giving him. I am taking this time to thank everyone that was a part of his life, these past three months on the server have been a blast. Stein and myself have made a lot of friends that I hope to keep and play along side them with other characters I make. So for those reading this thank you and to anyone that knows, give a salute as "The Stone Fortress" has finally fallen.
       
      I will now take the time to thank those that have impacted Stein's life greatly @FunkehMelon @melonth @ickyNuN @confusedjester @Rocky_Wolf @SmothBM  @Irishmanmichael  and of course many more that I am sadly too lazy to actually search up and apologize for it. However though not everyone that has impacted Stein's life will be on here, I have not forgotten you and will never forget you. So thank you all for the fun three months, and I will see you all in my next lives <3!
