Grulin Segroa

Recommended Posts

Out-Of-Character:

-Minecraft Account Name:Bloodwyvern13

-How old are you?:20

-Time-Zone/Country of Residence: GMT/United Kingdom

-Do you have a good grip on the English language/good grammar?: Aye

-Small 2-3 Sentence Description of yourself: Myself? Well, all anyone really needs to know about me is that my attention span is similar to that of a gnats, I'm British and I am rarely serious, until politics gets involved of course. And I have a love of RPing insane characters.

-How much time could you be on the server weekly?:That entirely depends upon what goes on in my week, anywhere between half an hour to 40 hours. It will likely vary.

-How long have you played minecraft?:Uhm... i'm unsure to be honest, I've played it on and off for a year or two I guess? Lets say a year

-What do you know about roleplaying? How long have you been doing it? What kind?: I've done a little bit in Planeshift, and I've done forum RPs since 2008. I'd say I'm fairly experienced.

-What do you expect this server will be like?:I'm hoping it will have lots of interesting RP and opportunities to have conflict and drama without all the whining you normally get.

-What other server(s) have you played on and why did you leave them?:On minecraft? None, it's never appealed to me before now

-Have you read, understood, and agreed to the rules? What about the lore?: Yep, read it all.

-Name the 4 races on this server. Human, Elf, Dwarf, Orc

-How did you hear about us?: Random internet browsing, if I remember right I found myself here when looking at the photo realism texture pack

-Did you vote?: aye

-What was your favourite Law?: Odd question, if were talking about server laws it would be the one about not destroying the environment, Kingdom laws, the harassment thing I suppose

-What was your least favourite Law?: For the server, it would be the law about HAVING to follow your kingdoms laws, it's probably just the wording, but it implies that it is not okay to play an unlawful character, it would make more sense if the rule was more about accepting the consequences of your actions. Kingdoms, no murdering, no stealing, oh the list is endless :P.

-What is your The Lord Of Craft forum account name?Grulin Segroa

In-Character:

-Character Name:Grulin Segroa

-What is your Race?: Shamanic Orc

-Lordofthecraft.net/forum forum account: Grulin Segroa

-Biography:

Grulin Segroa, a member of the mighty shaman bloodline, an orcish sub-race with the power to control the very elements themselves and tear the earth apart in a primal rage as all consuming as an ordinary Orcish warriors blood-lust. When Grulin grew up, it was clear he had the gift, and an incredibly powerful variant of it, but it came at a price... A terrible price.

The gods never give anybody anything for free and in Grulin's case, he lost his sanity in exchange for controlling the powers of the shaman. He couldn't block out or stop the constant, incessant chattering of the spirits, always clawing at the edge of his mind, always clamouring for help, assistance, company... Control. He spent weeks lying in bed awake, hearing the sea of voices crash against his conciousness, begging him to help them, urging him to do things, never giving him a moments peace. Throughout his child hood and younger years he showed continual signs of becoming more and more unhinged, more and more dangerous, unpredictable. But he passed every test of strength, excelled even, so he was not stopped.

Eventually, Grulin reached adulthood and to fulfil his rite of passage left his tribe to fight in the wilds. Driven further and further into insanity he roamed the wild lands, falling upon any he came across in a swirl of blood and pain and death, ripping them apart with his magic, falling the sway of the voices, becoming a creature of chaos and destruction, his mind sinking deeper and deeper into it's darkest recesses...and he began to revel in it. He followed the spirits voices and their whims, helping, harming, destroying creating in a seemingly random fashion as the voices vied for control and influence in his head, his mind a battlefield as chaotic and splintered as the outside world.

It has been Seven years, seven years of the voices, seven years of insanity, of pain, of an all consuming feral rage and Grulin has returned to Sanhar, he is lost to the chaotic forces that govern him, lost to his insanity, lost to the voices. All that remains to be seen is whether he will a boon to the tribe, or whether he will be an agent of destruction too terrible for even the orcs to accept.

-Character Age:22

-Character Appearance:He is of around 7 foot in height and as is normal for an Orc of shaman blood, is skinny and sinewy when compared to another orc (although still larger than most humans). His head is shaven bald. His face and body are covered in scars from numerous types of weapons and some parts of his body appear to have been severely burnt at some point in his life. His most striking features however, are his eyes, they are a bright blood red, almost glowing in the dark, and if one was to stare into them too long, they might gain a glimpse of the chaos that is Grulin's mind.

He wears what many would consider to be quite traditional shamans clothing, it is generally lightweight and designed not to restrict him during rituals, after all, orcs must know how to travel light.

His voice is usually a reasonably deep one with a slight gravel to it's tone, but depending upon which voice he is favouring, that can change drastically.

-Character Personality:Due to his...condition, Grulin's personality is a complex beast, it is filled with contradictions and his morality and views can change like the wind, but, there are certain parts of himself that never leave, perhaps the single most overriding factor of his personality is lust for power, in whatever form. All of the spirits and voices may disagree on how he should get that power, but they all agree he needs it.

Generally, he is hard to read or understand for most, he regularly speaks in riddles, most of which is complete nonsense but he does possess a strange...insight into the world, perhaps because of his shattered mind, so sometimes he will say something incredibly profound, if you can pull it apart from the rest. Unfortunately his nature also makes him very unpredictable, and due to his blood and inability to control himself, he is quite regularly a violent individual.

-Your ambitions: Power. Political, physical, magical it doesn't matter. The voices tell Grulin that to make it stop, to make it ALL stop, all he needs to do is use them to gain the power to shatter this earth as the gods shattered his mind, let them help him to become the most powerful Shaman in Orcish history. Whether he will listen to the voices desire for dominance, or destruction or a myriad of other aims, some more tasteful than others is unknown.

-Can your character read or write?: a little, but he no longer has the concentration for it

-Can your character mine?: not really

-Are you a capable builder? He can build small shacks and temporary shelters

-Can you wield a sword?: yes, although Grulin tends to rely more upon his spells

-Enjoy Farming?: no

-Does your character have any special skills?: Shaman magic, and sometimes as surprising insight during his babbling.

-Other Information:

Despite being insane and the epitome of chaos in many ways, he is still able to communicate, in a roundabout, confusing way yes, but he can communicate.

Okay, i've done the standard application, but I'm unsure whether he counts as a villain...he probably does, but there's no point in filling it all out if I don't need to, if you believe it would be helpful/necessary, if you drop me a letter I'll gladly fill out a Villain form.

It's a great application, but you will need to post a separate villain application. It asks more detailed questions of your character. You will probably still be accepted with this app, but you can't kill or steal until you get an Approved villain app. Villains still have some, albeit less, rules to follow, like RPing every kill well. If you look in the ban report section, you can get an idea of what NOT to do. Great app though.

And that i'm having major issues on the minecraft forum, as I've explained under the username Bloodwyvern13, Any posts of any size are being deleted, so I cannot get my application in that thread...it is frustrating to say the least.

Edited to add, sorted it out, everything is now where it should be
