Cie's Introduction

[Methuselah 24]

Hello!

 

I have been role-playing for about ten years on many different games and platforms. Haven't role-played on Minecraft in about four years, but a few friends recommended this server to me so I figured I'd give it a try. Looking forward to becoming a member of this community!

 

I've role-played on Runescape, GuildWars 2 and WoW. I am also a proud Mamma to three English Bulldogs.

Do you enjoy roleplaying as pure Human in the most powerful nation on earth? Who maintains good religious values?

Welcome, my friend! I too am a former WoW and GW2 RPer. The communities are very different over there, but I still like them all the same. What are you planning on roleplaying?

Welcome to LOTC. My main recommendation is you find a group to join, which is the best way to get settled in and be provided with RP. Haelun'or, Linandria, Sutica and Johannesburg are all active cities.

 

I also recommend you look for a settlement's lore/guides to learn a bit about them so you have some basic background knowledge you can choose to use in RP.

 

Good luck, have fun!

Thanks, Esterlan. Which server(s) did you RP on? I usually stick to human characters, so I'll probably be floating around Johannesburg for awhile.

Pure blooded humans fit in well in the Imperial Capital, you will do well on here.

Hi there, welcome to the server!

 

LeoWarrior's advice is pretty much the best anyone can give to a new player. For your first character, get invested in a big safe group to learn the ropes and the expectations of the nation/group you're interested in. The majority of people here are very accomodating to new players, so you should be fine.

 

I see the character on your application is human, so I'll tailor this next bit for Humans but if you want to make another character of a different race this advice may be radically different - for example, due to current wars, Orcs and Dwarves are arrested or killed on sight in cities and vassals of Oren, the main human state. For a Human character I'd recommend jumping straight into RP in Oren, as it is the main racial nation of the Humans and has a high number of players in its major cities. Good Orenian areas to go for regular RP are the capital of Johannesburg, the eastern city of Metz near the Wood Elves and Haense in the North. Orenian RP is based on Medieval Europe, notably the Holy Roman Empire, and has a nationalist imperial policy toward the world. As would be expected in a medieval world, deviance from cultural and religious norms is frowned upon. Good quality RP of the Witcher universe type can be found in most sectors of Orenian society, from commoner to high nobility, catering to both peaceful and more militant RP tastes. All of Oren's major activities are on the island of Tahn.

 

If Oren doesn't suit you after trying it there are numerous other places to RP for a Human. The neutral city-state of Sutica is dedicated to peaceful, multi-racial RP apart from the conflicts on the larger nations. Its generally more open in regards to things like magic use, inter-racial relationships and political opinions. Sutica can be found on the snowy island of Ceru.

 

A nice place to visit that's safe for a Human are the lands of the Wood Elves in eastern Tahn. Linandria's a beautifully built city with a high player count and generally more peaceful RP than in Oren. Nearby are the multi-racial guilds of the Druids and the Ascended, both groups that are exceptionally welcoming of new players.

 

If one wants to go further afield, the Shamans are also a good group to look into.

 

If you're looking for a different experience entirely you could attempt to join more renegade groups of Humans opposed to Oren, albeit more PvP focused militant ones or if you want a more generalised RP experience in that side you could join the Dwarves or Orcs. The Orcs are a tribe-like meritocratic culture of warriors. Although generally racist against outsiders, if one seeks to joint their ranks you can become an honourary - a non-Orc fighting in Krug's name, considered to have an Orcish soul. Alternatively you could simply be a tribute paying wanderer wanting to experience life amongst the Orcs without that level of commitment. For the Dwarves, they're relatively accepting for peaceful players and their military is historically multi-racial.

 

 

Hope this helps and you enjoy our stay with us!! :)

 

 

P.S.    If you want to make another character aside from the one on your application, no additional application is required for this after your first application is accepted, and a new character sheet can be made instantly using the persona system accessed through /me in game.

Moon Guard US for WoW and Tarnished Coast for GW2. Haven't played in years for both of them, though, I always think about going back but never end up doing it!
