[Denied] Adric Wavecrest's Application

[Shuggie_ 252]

What’s your Minecraft account name?: Shuggie_

How old are you?: 17

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

Have you read and agreed to the rules?: Yes

What’s the rule you agree with the most?: Easily the rule on Powergaming. It's so frustrating to initiate a conflict with another player, only to have them, "Catch the arrow in mid-air". Then proceed to completely incinerate my character with a god-like fire ball spell.

Are there any rule(s) that confuse you or don’t make sense? (if so we can help clear it up!): Nope

How did you find out about Lord of the Craft?: I was recommended to come try the server out by my friend "cornivore". He knew I was into medieval role-play, so he said I should give this server a shot.

Link(s) to past Whitelist Applications (If applicable): N/A

 

 

Definitions

Feel free to Google the answers or browse our forums, but make sure that you write the reply in your own words, not those of another website or person! Plagiarizing will result in the automatic denial  of your application!

 

What is roleplaying?: My definition of roleplaying is assuming the role of a character and immersing yourself in a fictional/non-fictional world/scenario. Your character carries out different actions and slowly crafts their own story. You meet friends and go on wild and fun adventures together making memories all the while.

What is metagaming?: Metagaming is using OOC knowledge for your own character's personal use. This breaks immersion and generally ruins roleplay for you and everyone involved. For example someone can kill your character in their sleep, and your character could come back knowing that that person is murderer. This is not permitted and I do not endorse it.

What is power-emoting (powergaming)?: Powergaming is making an action that your "target" cannot respond too. Example: "Fires an arrow landing in (Char. Name)'s chest." This completely destroys the fun medieval atmosphere players are trying to immerse themselves in.

"Adric Wavecrest... Man's a monster, you should see the way he wields that blade of his. He's not a man I'd like to cross..." That's what they say about me, and I honestly can't blame them. I was taken from my biological family of Highlanders at a young age by a group of Uruk bandits. I'd say I was about four or five at the time, they came and burned down my families farm. The chieftain of the bandits name was Grog'Nacc ,an old orc blind in one eye with dark green skin scarred from the countless battles he'd been through. The Uruks murdered my eldest brother and killed my parents as well, but for whatever reason Grog'Nacc couldn't bring himself to kill a weeping child. Instead he threw me in shackles and had me carry his blade all the way back to the Orchish Isles.

 

Once I we'd arrived at the Isles, Grog'Nacc brought me to a slavers camp. I could see many children like me, shackled, crying, hopeless. Grog'Nacc brought me to a tent and handed me a short sword. "Take this, you either fight in the pit or die". Obviously I took up the sword, and soon after I was thrown into a pit a forced to fight a series of wild animals. The experience was traumatizing, but it forged me into a veteran fighter. I remained fighting in the camp until my early teens until I had decided to escape. After a day of fighting Grog'Nacc was taking me to my cell. As he was placing the cells keys on his belt, I managed to steal them off them. I waited until the late hours of the night and made my move. I managed to sneak through the the guard's defenses, I then proceeded to sprint into the woods near by and didn't stop running until the sun came out.

 

Time went by and I grew tired of living in hiding. I left the woods to try to find my destiny. I found a dirt path and began following it north, I had my slaves clothing and a rusty short sword. As I traversed the path I came across an old man, traveling with a cart being pulled by two oxen. Being the savage I was at the time I proceeded to mug the mans cart. I chased the man off and began to search through the cart. I was disappointed to find that the cart was full of books. This turned out to be my salvation. I taught myself to read and write and slowly accumulated a vast knowledge of the world and swordsmanship. After reading many heroic novels I had decided that the life of a hero wasn't for me. I dedicated my life to being a bandit, hellbent on fortune and fame. Selling my services to anyone with enough coin.
