I Might Make A Return, But I Have Questions...

[FluorescentSky 20]

Hello! A quick little intro into who I am before I go and ask the questions I need answered (Also i would like to apologize if this is on the wrong board,, I wasn't sure where else to put it). I'm yoku651, or Yoku. I used to play LOTC a long time ago. Like 4 years ago. I'm not sure why but something has sparked my curiosity of this place I once called home. After thinking about it, I might want to come back and enjoy roleplaying again, but I just have a few questions.

1. Is there somewhere I can read up all the patch changes and lore changes?
2. Am I free to play my old characters, or did something happen in the lore required everyone to restart?
3. If yes, are their villain applications still intact, or do you need to re-apply.
4. Actually, are there even still villain/magic applications?
5. If no, how do those things work now?
6. Are there race applications (For example, when I played, you had to apply for Mori, Kharajyr...)?
7. PVP and war changes?
8. Faction changes?
9. Race changes, additions, or removals?
10. Basically, can anyone guide me around this new place that was once as familiar as the back of my hand?
11. EDIT: What mods (including texture packs), if any, should I download to be more immersed?

1. The wiki, but not a comprehensive guide on changes. So, not really.

 

2. You can play your old characters.

 

3. No villain apps

 

4. There are magic apps

 

5. Read the rules located here https://www.lordofthecraft.net/forum/440-server-information/

 

6. There are race applications for like, really small niche races, like Cervitaur, but nothing for Kharajyr. Mori are no more.

 

7. Again, read the rules here https://www.lordofthecraft.net/forum/440-server-information/

 

8. Lots.

 

9. Mori can no longer be played, and a lot of sorta of 'small' races. Like byrophites, cervitaurs, golems (although they were probably around when you played).

 

10. As in /help channel or /ooc, you will usually get a response. The best place to go for lore and stuff is http://wiki.lordofthecraft.net/Front+Page

1. http://wiki.lordofthecraft.net/Front+Page
2. You can play your old characters
3. Villain applicants almost made a comeback a couple months ago after a year or so of removal but they were boycotted back out. Villain apps are a sin.
4. Magic apps were taken away but brought back, they're still here. If your characters have magic then you should make an app for it, can be found here: https://www.lordofthecraft.net/forum/494-magic-applications/ 
5. N/A
6. Some races require asking a LM to play, or being and ET. More info here: https://www.lordofthecraft.net/forum/429-racial-lore/
7. A lot. PvP is default but there must be sufficient RP leading up to it. As for war changes, damn son. More info here: https://www.lordofthecraft.net/topic/123958-combat-rules/ https://www.lordofthecraft.net/topic/123960-war-rules/ https://www.lordofthecraft.net/topic/123957-villain-rules/
8. In Vailor you either bend a knee to a nation or go through the guild charter: https://www.lordofthecraft.net/topic/129700-vailor-charter-system/
9. Kha are no longer a main race. The Mori are no more. A lot of new minor races.
10. I'm not sure I'm the best but I'm sure someone can!
