[✔] [Accepted] Aythy's Application

[Ankan 2875]

What’s your Minecraft Account Name?:

Aythyinae

 

How old are you?:

I'm 17, soon to be 18.

 

Are you aware the server is PG-13 (You won’t be denied for being under 13):

Yes. I'm fully aware of that.

 

Have you applied to this server before? (Please link all past applications):

This is my first application to LotC.

 

Have you read and agreed to the rules?:

I have read the rules thoroughly and I, of course, agreed.

 

What’s the rule you agree with the most?:

 

"Players who willingly kill their characters (i.e forum post/RP.) have seven real life days to reverse the perma-kill. After the seven days are up, the perma-kill is no longer reversible and the character must stay dead. This does not cover suicide however, if your character continuously kills themselves, they’re perma killed."

 

I think this rule is important. Meaning that a perma-kill is a real perma-kill. Very often in roleplaying, people tend to get extremely attached to their character and regret their decision after a while. This rule will raise the quality of the roleplay by eliminating that issue.

 

Are there any rule(s) that confuse you or don’t make sense?(If so we can help clear it up! You will not be denied for having a question on the rules):

I found the rules to be clear and easy to understand. I'm not the greatest of Minecraft players, so I might have misunderstood some Minecraft terms.. I have no questions about them yet though. I reckon I'll understand them as soon as I get into the game.

 

How did you find out about Lord of the Craft?

I actually got recommended LotC by a friend many years ago, but I declined the invite. I have recently found some more interest in roleplaying and Minecraft again, so I thought I would give this a shot!

What is roleplaying?:

Roleplaying is acting out of your own character, playing someone else (most often someone/something fictional).

 

What is metagaming?:

Metagaming is using knowledge in character that you gathered outside of roleplay.

 

What is powergaming?:

Powergaming is most easily explained as roleplaying your character better, stronger, faster (list goes on) than he or she really is. Using invented-on-the-fly spells or suddenly rolling in a tank into the High Elven village is powergaming!

Biography  (Please make it a decent two paragraphs long. Remember to add server lore, and events that happened to your character so that they don’t contradict history.):

"High standards lead to absolute purity."

 

That was the family motto, engraved into the fragile neck of a beautifully crafted harp. Odessa Visay kept the harp perfectly still as the boat she was travelling in crashed against the waves. It had been her only company and possession for many years. Odessa had left the safety of el'cihi after reaching adulthood and ventured out to refine her musical talents. It had absolutely not been a journey without setbacks, but she arrived at Armaluna, an island famed for it's unique bard college. She had only been on Armaluna for a few years before the great catastrophe happened, leaving all of Asulon in ruin.

 

Together with a shy and mellow wood elf from the island, she was forced to set sail, lost and far away from ever reaching shore. The two girls, being as naive as they were, had brought more instruments and books than life necessities. Only by luck, would they later that week drift into the beaches of Elysium, where they would find enough food and water to get around. When she later was unable to find safeguard amongst her kind, being in a time of turbulence, she stayed with the wood elf she had gotten to know, practicing the arts of music together.

 

Odessa had at around this time, begun engraving in her family's motto into the fragile neck of her most valuable instrument, her harp. The harp had been her instrument of preference since she began showing interest in music and she would rather be hungry for days, perhaps weeks, than giving this specific piece away. The wood elf, who had accompanied her for all this time, decided her journey had to come to an end, finally settling amongst her kin. And for the first time, Odessa were left all to herself. The engraved words on her harp reminded her of the importance of blood. It drove her insane, not contributing anything to her kin nor family.

 

By caravan, she rode with her harp, straight in her back and a slight smirk across her lips. She would make her return to el'cihi.

 

Personality Traits:

Just like most High Elves, Odessa is very proud of her heritage. She believes very deeply in the  importance of purity, loyal to the city and kin. She's a very forward and socially active High Elf, often the one engaging in conversations. Her passion for music is doomed to shine through in most of her interactions with others.

 

Ambitions:

While Odessa has no specific goals or ambitions, she wants to be integrated back into the High Elven society, reunited with family and proceed to assist her kin to grow in numbers and strength.

 

Strengths/Talents:

Odessa's skill with the harp and her passion for music is her one biggest asset. She has a great singing voice, which have made her be seen as a musical talent. Apart from the musical stuff, she is extremely competitive and refuses to lose any discussion, no matter how small the issue is. Her loyalty to the Silver Council and City can both a strength and a weakness, but most often a strength, allowing her to fit into the rest of the group.

 

Weaknesses/Inabilities:

Her competitive way of being has it's downfalls and she struggles choosing her battles wisely. This, in combination with being overly convinced about the importance of High Elven purity, makes for a destructive combination. Odessa lacks physical strength and she is built quite small, making her far from effective in combat. She has never worn armor, nor learned how to properly use any weapons.

 

Appearance (List the extra details of your characters appearance, IE; height & weight):

Just like most High Elves, Odessa is slim and tall. She has the very common High Elven characteristic of blue eyes and blonde hair.

 

Appearance, please provide us a screenshot of your character’s skin:
