[Actor] Cyberdefault's Application

[GodEmperorFlam 3447]

Sidenote about why I’m reapplying!

So, I self-denied myself a while back even though I was doing rather well support wise for a few reasons. Those reasons are now gone and I’ve spent the past few months expanding my roleplay area. I’m now involved with RP in Oren, have dabbled with the dwarves, and stuck my hand into the spook zone. I am confident I can now pander to a much wider audience when it comes to my events and have grown between now and the time I applied.

What are your characters? Are you willing to sacrifice any to become a Event member?

 

Katari Stirling (aka Richard de Norfolk) is my main and only character that I play actively. I will only sacrifice him if I feel that it's needed, otherwise I'd like to keep playing him.

 

What race / group do you think your events would best cater to? If none in particular, give an example of the type of group that your events would entertain.

 

I can cater towards most, but I’d have to do some preparations if I was doing events for orcs/kha as they are not really my strong suit when it comes to RP.

I believe I can cater towards most as I enjoy most forms of RP, from tavern to military RP.

 

What do you believe are key factors for a successful event?

 

1. Organization of both the event and the ET. This basically means, the event has a rough outline of what's going to occur (as long as this is a /planned/ event and not a spontaneous one). I say the ET as well because if the event is organized, all the people are there, but the ET doesn't have all his character stuff organized (I'm talking lore and things like that, such as what would happen if it got shot by a fireball), the event is going to lag behind and people lose interest.

 

2. Enjoyment. The event should be enjoyable for the vast majority, if not all of the people present. You can't please everyone, but you should try to put a smiley face on as many people as you can.

 

3. Feedback. This is for after the event is over, but I feel people should be asked to see if they liked the event and whether or not they have any idea on how to improve things for the future.

 

4. Patience. Not everyone types at the same speed nor can everyone handle the chat spam in larger events. It's important to know when to slow down and make sure everyone is up to speed on what is going on. Also, new players may not exactly have a perfect grasp on things (such as commands, waiting for another person to respond, PG'ing, etc.), so being able to cope with that while running an event, in my opinion, is important.

 

 

When was the last time you saw a event?

 

Alter was playing a fish in the river, that is the most recent event I have seen (4/20/15).

 

What strengths could you contribute to the Event Team? Are you knowledgeable in lore or great at organizing?

 

I am adaptable, been around for a while so I know a lot of people meaning I won't have issues plopping an event down in various places, I don't mind partnering/grouping up for an event, and I have a loooot of time on my hands.

 

Lore-wise, I'm well read on most of the more used magics and their red-lines (Voidal, Clerical and Druidic), the alchemy lore, Spectral lore, and the basic races. I know some of the creature lore as I have been recently going over it in anticipation for if I get ET, the ones listed in my Events (down below) for example. I am a quick reader and learner, so if someone has an event they need help with or if I'm going to do an event, I do not believe there will be an issue with me going over the lore that I am not familiar with.

 

I am pretty good at organizing folks and don't believe I'll have any trouble with that.

 

Why do you want to be part of the ET?

 

Well, during the off hours (12-7am PST) there aren't many things going on, and we only have a small handful of people who are active during those hours. I feel like I could contribute/help out by spreading the events around. I've been playing on and off on this server (first on halt99 then my switch to Cyber) for over 3 years and I feel that it is time for me to give back to the community.

 

Create three distinct RP scenarios/events based on LOTC lore that you would organize. These are pitches to the Managers and Ouity, not to the community. Note: Not all of the group must be handled at once. Eg: 20+ people via 5 person increments in a dungeon.

 

1) For 1-3 person

 

Draiochta Lore:

https://www.lordofth...ckless-forests/

 

A wandering Draiochta is travelling around until he spots a person/small group. Thereupon he approaches the group, asking if they want a small performance in exchange for minas. From there, the Draiochta starts to cause mischief and its up to the players how to handle him. The Draiochta would pull pranks such as stealing a small item, doing a bit of magic, and basically being an overall nuisance, but not showing any hostility. There will be a list of items/articles of clothing that the Draiochta will fancy and try to steal. Upon taking one of these, the Draiochta will offer to give it back if the player beats him in a game. There will be no set game and it will differ from person to person. It could be as simple as rolling dice to something more complex as a series of tasks the player(s) have to complete.

 

If the players decide to take a different approach and attack him, the Draiochta will (depending on how armed/dangerous the players are) either put up some resistance by say, magically tying the player's boot laces together, or simply running away by transforming into a flock of butterflies.

 

If the player wins by beating the Draiochta in either the game or in combat, they will receive some sort of RP item that was most likely nicked off another person.

 

2) For a group of 5-10

 

Man-Frog Lore (If this lore is no longer applicable since it's in the outdated archives, I have a backup event written):

https://www.lordofth...frog-completed/

 

It's a pleasant day in Gimblewood (can be another city however if need be), citizens are roaming about, doing their thing. However, something is wrong... A citizen stumbles upon an open storage door and spots some odd and muddy footprints leading in and out of room. Should the player investigate, it will be revealed that some of the carrots and ale have been stolen! The people follow a trail of dropped crops and eventually stumble upon the lair of the Man-Frog!

 

Depending on the number of players present, there will either be a few Man-Frogs living in a cave or one Man-Frog resting in a muddy puddle. On the way to the lair/upon entering, the players will have to bypass some minor traps the Man-Frogs have constructed.

 

If the players are hostile or come in armed, the Man-Frog's wolf companions will come and interfere. (This may be a mob-spawn event of PvE, depending on what the players want/how many there are). After slaying the wolves, the players can choose to attack the Man-Frogs/drive them out. Upon doing so, the players will notice some stolen goods in the corner of the cave/sticking out of the puddle.

 

If the players take on the more peaceful approach after bypassing the traps, they will stumble upon the wolves, who will growl and be spooky, but won't immediately attack. The players will have a chance to interact with the Man-Frogs and see their odd way of life. There will be hints dropped during the event for a way to please the Man-Frogs, in which completed, the players will be given compensation in the way of a reward.

 

3) For a group of 20+

 

Mimic Lore:

https://www.lordofth...lore-the-mimic/

 

It's a party! A seemingly wealthy person wanders around gathering folks that are interested in having a good time and takes them to his mansion. There is a planned schedule of games and festivities and each of the winners is taken into the back to get a prize. However, as the party moves along, the winners don't come out of the back. Eventually, someone investigates, and finds the winners are no where to be seen! In the center of a room is a rug, where all the prizes are laid out. Upon closer inspection, the rug reveals its true form, a mimic! The house has a few mimics inside of it and the owner is no where to be found. If the players try to flee, they will see a note on the door, from the owner, explaining that they need to find the all the fakes (mimics) and then they'll be let free. All the exits are blocked off, whether by magic or by sturdy lock, and it's up to the players what to do now. There will be other rooms in the house, including a basement that the players can hide/explore. These rooms will have surprises in them, which may or may not be triggered after the mimics begin their attack.

 

(This is a mob-spawn event with slimes and a few other surprise mobs depending on where the players explore as others have noted. I realize that not everyone enjoys PvE, which is why there are the other rooms in which other surprises will be).

 

How long do you plan to stay in the ET?

 

As long as I am needed.

 

Tell me a joke.

[Lirinya 4021]

Katari has been somebody I have actively roleplayed with since I came back a handful of months ago.

 

While I am disappointed he is with Oren now, I have never had a moment of bad roleplay with him nor had I heard anybody complain.

 

Event wise, we won't really know unless you are given the chance, but you are quite adaptable from what I have seen. I don't really have any negatives or criticism to add here. I only have good things to say about you. Apart from the Oren bit.

 

I'm pissed about that.

 

Edit: Oh and the beard, shave it.

[Birdnerdy 1539]

He'd be an excellent addition to the team, +1

[TavernLich 324]

Ew nonononononnonono.

Jk. Katari is a really chill guy, from whay I have seen he is a great RPer and an active one as well. HUGE +1.

[mitto 2312]

[Heff 2460]

I would put a gif but im not a loser 

 

+1 good rper total lad

[✿Honeybear✿ 84]

He is a beautiful peacock and y'all need to let him fly!  +1

[The Great Mongol Khan 1110]

+1 One of the best rpers I've ever met, non biased and very friendly

[Harri 4815]

- 1 for innapropriate name :(

 

 

But for real, Cyber is a great RPer. He sticks to his characters through and through, is creative, friendly, patient with others and doesn't get angered easily, like at all. I'd honestly love to see Cyber on the ET, and think he'd be great for it. He has the drive, knowledge and attitude for it.

 

+1 and a good luck from me.

[Salvo 1852]

Supportive, friendly, willing to help newbs.

 

Good RPer, knows when to be serious, sticks to his character and doesn't meta.

 

A tad too edgy, but we are working on it.

 

+1

[Kaiser 2347]

You gotta love kalamari. He's really an above average RPer, and a good friend both IC and OOC. I'd recommend him at anything he does.

+1

[Gone 869]

This man is friendly, hard working, patient, and he really knows his stuff. I mean look at that beautiful use of lore in his event ideas! He didn't just come up with random things. Like everyone else I believe he'd make a great, and active, addition to the team.

+1

 

[Taylor 504]

I don't know, man. He pugsied me this one time and I was really angry. I don't think he's fit for anything tbh.

 

Just kidding. Usopp's a good guy, qualified for the job, and I've roleplayed with him for while. I'd say he's a great RP'er and mature.

+1 from me. : )

[Runabarn 1028]

I agree with everyone so far. He'd so an outstanding job.

 

+1

[ThumperJack 927]

+1

 

Cyber gives out enjoyable roleplay, and is a calm and collected sorta guy. Would make a great addition to the team.
