Tharor

Recommended Posts

Out-Of-Character:

-Minecraft Account Name: Tharor

-How old are you?: 15

-Time-Zone/Country of Residence: EST, or -5 GMT

-Do you have a good grip on the English language/good grammar?: I'd think so, although, all of us make a grammatical of spelling error every once-in-awhile. It's also my fault if I make a fool of myself in-game anyway.

-Small 2-3 Sentence Description of yourself: Let's see... I'm in school on weekdays from 7:20AM-4:00PM. THAT DOESN'T INCLUDE HOMEWORK. I have fencing on Mondays, so I will have little to no time to RP then. I do go on occasional vacations (without my laptop), so that's usually the cause if I'm not there besides homework. I do enjoy roleplaying, I really do, it's like a haven after a chaotic day in my life.

-How much time could you be on the server weekly?: On average, erm... probably 20 hours or so, depending on: how much time I had that Monday, homework amount, a test or project or vacations.

-How long have you played minecraft?: Since 1.5 I think.

-What do you know about roleplaying?: How long have you been doing it? What kind?: I love roleplaying, it's definition to me is to make character, then set him free. It's like the character makes his own way through life, and you're the observing specter. My main roleplaying type is fantasy of sci-fi, much like this server.

-What do you expect this server will be like?: I expect to be as exciting the YouTube trailers suggest.

-What other server(s) have you played on and why did you leave them?: Eh, only un-satisfying community servers. I left them because they bored me too easily.

-Have you read, understood, and agreed to the rules? What about the lore?: I have agreed to the rules/server law, and I greatly admire the lore and backstory.

-Name the 4 races on this server: The races are as follows: Elf, Human, Orc and Dwarf (and their respective sub-races[Not including Aengul, Daemon, Ascended or Undead. As they are given as in-game bonuses to whom moderators deem worthy]).

-How did you hear about us?: Through the stunning advertisements on YouTube.

-Did you vote?: Of course, I'd love to see LOTC get widespread attention

-What was your favourite Law?: All of them, I think them fair enough.

-What was your least favourite Law?: I can't say I like all of them and have a least favorite now, can I?

-What is your The Lord Of Craft forum account name?: Tharor

In-Character:

("Luneatic" is spin off of "Lunatic." Relating to being insane towards the moon)

CHARACTER FOREWORD:

Formatting:

Before you read, understand that "Luneatic" is a term I made, NOT a misspelling, which is what the original reviewer thought. I've never played an eccentric/insane character before, so it'll be a good way that I can locate the extent of my role playing ability. Applications should be reviewed mainly for content and creative ability, not for: grammar, spelling or things irrelevant to role playing(like bracket usage). It's their fault if one looks like a fool because he types something wrong or responds in the incorrect way! Although, it still doesn’t hurt to at least add punctuation.

All the parentheses are used to help you understand details of the character. It’s difficult to get certain details of an eccentric’s personality in first-person perspective, as they usually unique to the world. I’ve seen much more generic and grammar-lacking applications accepted, just look around the applications and you’ll see what I mean (Besides, using parentheses in game is bad RP anyway). Now, the reason I have the insane notion of an Elf-child’s parents abandoning him is because I imply in biography lines 2-3 that the parents must have been “off their rockers” (or could he have been born illegitimately?).

Finally, one moderator wanted me to change the thoughts jumping around excessively in the bio. Understand this, I’m trying to get my character’s eccentric/crazy personality shown the best I can. The bio was written as if he was actually talking to a band of people. Although he is usually quiet, if gotten to talk with enthusiasm, he loses track of what he’s saying and therefore he ends up jumping around his thoughts (so yes, it was INTENTIONAL!). But I admit I may have gone a bit overboard with it.

In term of application placement:

One moderator suggested I'd apply as a "Special Villain," here is my explanation:

He may appear to be a psycho to some but: Tharor is NOT, will NOT and NEVER will be a "villain." Sorry if you're taking offense to my judgment but, a crazy person is not the same as a messed-up psycho. A crazy or very eccentric person is usually harmless; keeping to themselves and muttering quietly. Psychos are very unstable most of the time, and are also dramatically bipolar.Tharor is more crazy than psychotic, but he isn't lost to the condition.

Tharor if talked to normally will usually respond in monotone, he doesn't really show his emotion when he speaks. His thoughts tend to jump around a lot when he gives long speeches, as stated in the application, but he does respond according to what the other player said. Now if for example, he and another player were standing next to each-other he would probably say "Isn't the moon beautiful tonight?" (even when it's a new moon of course) or if one says "Yeah, beautiful as a rat's arse. *spits*" he of course would be highly offended and may suggest that the other to leave by sword-tip or arrowhead. That doesn't make him a psycho, it just makes him very adamant in his passion.

He isn't a bad person, he has his own thoughts about the world and will fight the good fight, if it has good reason, to the bitter end. If the application had a "favoritism in Ascended or Undead?:" he would say Ascended then in addition: the moon too, if it were possible... *sad face*.

So you see, the reason I didn't already post him in the "special villains" section already was because of him being so unique. If the section were was named "Characters with special conditions" or something similar however, he would have been placed there because he is classified as crazy or very eccentric.(sorry about being so critical)!

(END OF FOREWORD)

-Character Name: ("The Lune") Tharor

-What is your Race?: Elf, High-Elf sub race.

-Lordofthecraft.net/forum account: Tharor (non-number names are versatile, no?).

-Biography:

(Talking to a band of people in a village near Kal'Urguan by torchlight) I was said to be brought up by travelling, and most-likely insane, High-Elves who didn't want their child. Insane because no Elf in the right mind abandons one of the very rare children! Anyway, they supposedly abandoned me in a village square, and when I opened my eyes I saw the full winter moon overhead. A band of nomadic (and maybe a bit crazy) Dark-Elves found me and took me in to raise until old enough to live on my own. They trained me in speech and politics early on, I listened but yet ignored them, my soul was trained upon the moon. I believe the moon as the most beautiful thing in Aegis, earning myself the nickname "The Lune" (A spin-off of Loon). Anyway, my adopted guardians, fifteen years later, thought it was time I started travelling Aegis to give them tales to sing about. I considered it, and eventually decided it would be a good opportunity to know the land. Although, it will be difficult, my love with the moon restricts me to travel at night... When the hellish creatures emerge from their dark dens. I'm elated that you could hear my story, most are asleep at this time.

Back to what I was saying, before I left my guardians gave me a suit that would double as nightclothes, being made of the finest Elven silk. Didn't mean much to them, they lived off the forest and so spent money without hesitation. It shimmers softly in the moonlight (Yes, they took notice of my habits, probably because I wouldn't wake up in the morning) and being made of Elven fabric it will last probably as long as I'll live (probably from my sneaky habits, 1000 odd years). Unlike you it seems, most villages I stay in deem me crazy for my eccentric ways. It’s probably because I lurk on the roofs and treetops, causing a ruckus for building's owners. I stopped here on my way to Kal'Urguan since it is one of the nearest nations to my home. I don't think I'll be returning to my guardians, I'd prefer that I stay alone with the moon until my dying day.

Summary: An Eccentric High-Elf who is adamant on his beliefs on the moon. [Could be a potential threat to certain individuals, if they try to undermine his belief he may get angry. Or potential magnet for followers, if some are also "lune" for the moon. who knows? his story has only just begun!

Summary comment: If his passion is criticized, he wouldn't just attack mind you! That's bad RP! He would say firmly to leave, if he/she didn't comply then a bit rougher. If they didn't leave after that, he'd point his sword intimidatingly at him/her and angrily tell them to leave or "the point of this sword will be bloodied tonight, before the moon."

-Character Age: 15 years old (Incredibly young for an Elf [i know, same age. But, I'll have a good basis for his emotion that way])

-Character Appearance: I'm pale, 6'0 and I wear a suit and matching cap while keeping my face covered by my coat-collar. (I actually genuinely cover my face for fashion, the only thing vaguely Un-Eccentric about me)

-Character Personality: Distant, eccentric. (My nickname among his community "is" [quotations because no one else but me and you {the reader} would know this] "The Lune" Tharor)

-Your ambitions: my current ambition is to travel all of Aegis, and to settle in a secluded open-roofed house or as a traveling merchant or story-teller. To understand why people stare at me funnily... Oh yeah, and to of course go to the moon, although I know it's unrealistic.

-Can your character read or write?: As my guardians had the grand idea of me becoming an Ambassador, they taught me literacy. Now I sometime find myself walking around, reading by moonlight.

-Can your character mine?: NO! I hate being underground! I can't see the sky, hear the birds or feel the wind! But... I guess I have to if I want to visit Kal'Urguan. *shudders*

-Are you a capable builder? My buildings are usually open-roofed for the moonlight, so they aren't desirable among other races. If they replaced the space with glass it may be fashionable. (That is in-character; I can build according to codes if required)

-Can you wield a sword?: Traveling isn't the safest of occupations, so I've been formally trained, but I'm nothing compared to trained military officials. I use the quick light swords (Rapier or Epee [only in RP since the swords are the same model...]) and prefer to jab instead of slice (like fencing).

-Enjoy Farming?: As long as I can see the moon (so NO cave-farming). Also, I enjoy fishing and seafood.

-Does your character have any special skills?: Story-telling somewhat, although I won't get much of an audience because of my habit of sleeping during daylight.

-A screenshot of your skin: I'm not good with the inserting of pictures, so the screenshot is my profile picture (if the attachment didn't show up). If I tried to add the pointy ears (and I wanted too!) it would interfere with my hat, sorry if that displeases you. (High-elves love to refine their elegance with fine clothes, and he's a bit crazy so give his tacky appearance some slack!) Skin Link<- click ("Skin link" links to minershoes)

Alternative: post-23631-0-96533200-1316828051_thumb.p

-Other Information: I am usually very quiet, and my personality usually hinders relationships. I dyed the suit to be "Moon-like" (which explains the odd colors). I mainly get taken note of because I lurk on the roof-tops to get a better view of the moon (I guess I AM a bit of a "lune")

(WITH ALL DO RESPECT! IF THIS IS DENIED, I WANT A REASON [bECUASE THIS IS THE CHARACTER I SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED AND SKINNED FOR THIS SERVER])

Basically, if I'm denied, my revision WILL feature the same character and skin. Give specifics in your reasons, not just a copy-pasted list. I appreciate your input!

Thank you for your consideration-

Tharor

I'm hoping I can get in before I turn to dust! I've been waiting for ages, not even using MineCraft so I can edit my applications. No matter how much I've explained and explained, the next mod that reviews it doesn't get one certain detail. Then before you know it, I'm adding another three paragraphs to the foreword I included!

Sincere hopes that kindly mod will finally get it,

Tharor

You really took the etymology of the word lunatic and ran with it ^.^

Make sure to pop in a villain application to cover your more erratic and potentially aggressive reactions. From the character your're shaping here, I do not think you would have a problem.

The reason you need a "Special Villain" is because in the olden days, violence was sadly a part of their condition...

And hey, it means you can kill for the hell of it, and snab cool junk like Cannibal traits...
