[Distansera 0]

Out-Of-Character:

-Minecraft Account Name: Distansera

-How old are you?: 15

-Time-Zone/Country of Residence: -5 GMT. I live in Canada

-Do you have a good grip on the English language/good grammar?: Only language I know, so I'd hope I'd be good with it.

-Small 2-3 Sentence Description of yourself: I'm just a typical teenage boy. I get good grades and always have, and always will. I have a strong passion for minecraft, and gaming in general. Even though I love gaming, I also spend much time with my friends, just having fun and overall enjoying ourselves.

-How much time could you be on the server weekly?: I spend a lot of time playing minecraft, but only if I'm having fun. If I enjoy this server as much as I suspect I will, I'll spend an average of 3 hours a day, probably 8 on weekends, so in total 31 hours a week.

-How long have you played minecraft?: been playing approximately half a year, 7 months maybe.

-What do you know about roleplaying? How long have you been doing it? What kind?: I accually am what's considered to be "new" to RP'ing, since I've only been doing it for a year, but I do know what it is like and how to do it effectively. Role playing is all about fully immersing yourself in the role. You become your character, not yourself. You know what your character knows, not what you know in real life. When you role play, you are not, well, you. You're your character, experiencing his life. That is what I think roleplaying is. I've just been doing standard medeival roleplaying (example- world of warcraft rp server)

-What do you expect this server will be like?: I think that this server will be a completely interactive world, where your decisions forge a path for you to follow, with many players and lots of freedom.

-What other server(s) have you played on and why did you leave them?: I used to be on Voxelbox, but everybody was way out of my league. I was redstone savvy, while they were redstone pros. I also used to be on the stronghold rp server, but the rules were way too strict, I felt like I was in a cage, limited to only a few things to do.

-Have you read, understood, and agreed to the rules? What about the lore?: Yes, i read them, agree to them, and understand them. I did not see any rules that were out of the ordinary, or unfair, so yes, i definately agree to them. I've read through all the lore and i am excited, but also exhausted. The Lore is in-depth and seems like it will be very immersive. I am looking forward to it.

-Name the 4 races on this server: The four races are Human, Dwarf, Elf, and Orc. But don't forget about the two sub-races, ascended and undead.

-How did you hear about us?: browsing the mc forums and your post caught my eye.

Did you vote?: yes, twice.

What was your favourite law?: My favourite law is no 1337 speak. I hate 1337 speak because I just find it childish and annoying. Plus it is not rp at all.

What was your least favourite law?: I don't really have a least favourite law, because they all seem reasonable. I guess if I had to choose, it would be no destroying the world's landscape, because it makes me afraid of if I break one thing, to improve the look of an area, I could be punished for it.

-What is your The Lord Of Craft forum account name?: Account name is Aulmon, but my display name is Distansera

In-Character:

-Character Name: Aulmon

-Lordofthecraft.net/forum forum account: Aulmon, display name is Distansera.

-Biography: The childhood of a dwarf is quite enjoyable. It is no different from a human's. Dwarf children just have fun, go to school, do chores. The chores is where they differ from everybody else though. Their chores are all about their future professions. I wouldn't even call them chores. They just hone their mining, repair and axe skills. Now Distansera, despite being a dwarf, this is not the peaceful childhood he lived.

Distansera was raised through war, shedding blood for food for his family, doing nothing but fight and hide. War is a terrible thing, especially against such large brutes. The orcs did nothing but slaughter and burn buildings, shops, and many other things. This is what all of them were raised to do. Distansera was a royal, believe it or not. He did not act like a royal or speak like one, that wasn't what he was like. He was not a goody two-shoes, he was a fighter, born and raised. His one priority was his family, he would give up everything for them, including his life. Oh how he cared for them. This is the reason he was so stricken by their death.

He was 15 when he lost his parents, they were captured and killed by the dreaded, merciless orcs. He did not see this coming, for they had all lived and survived in hiding for 10 years, despite the fire and chaos constantly surrounding them. They had moved from place to place, avoiding the danger. It had taken the orcs all this time to reach the dwarven capital, and by that time, most of the dwarven forces were dead or surrendered. The only thing left was the royal guard and the 3 royals (Distansera and his parents). Finally, the enemy had started to withdraw. for they were low on numbers as well. Aulmon was extatic, he was ready to live a normal life. But it was already too late for him, he was battle hardened and would never be the same. At this time, when he felt most safe, was when his parents had been taken. The mass of the army leaving was simply a distraction. All the most elite orc assassins had stayed underneath the dwarven capital, waiting for the perfect time to strike. When they did, their task was easily accomplished. All the royal guard was dead within seconds, leaving Aulmon and his parents, breathlessly staring at the scene before them. Distansera's mother used her powerful magic to teleport him far away, to the Cloud Temple of Aegis. Nobody had known that his mother was honing her magical skills, nobody even knew that she had magic. Her magic will never be used or broadcasted again, since she was bound and gagged, and hung from a noose in front of the remaining dwarves and orcs. A new king had taken the throne, but he did not care. Royalty was unimportant to Distansera.

This is when Distansera decided to get revenge. He continued to strengthen himself, practicing day and night. All the while, the orcs searched for him. He figured that he would not be able to hide much longer, so he disguised himself. He became a commoner, changing his appearance and his name. He was now Aulmon, the miner and smithy. He has lived like this for 5 years, trying to plot an attack on the orcs. He could have executed this plan long ago, but there was constant interference from the undead. Even though the orcs were his main target, he knew what the immediate threat was. He hung up his hammer, grabbed his axe, and walked out of the blacksmiths, confidant in his abilities to dispatch of the undead quickly.

-Character Age: 20. Young, but battle hardened.

-Character Appearance: Wearing peasant clothing, long hair and a fluffy beard. His trademark is the diamond axe that was handed down his family for generations.

-Character Personality: Seclusive, doesn't like to be in crowds, because of his fear of being recognized as royalty. Also independant, doesn't like to be under the rule of somebody else, but can easily act like it does not matter to him.

-Your ambitions: Aulmon wants nothing more than to kill the supreme warlord of the orcs. Sounds tough, but this is his goal in life, and will use any means necesary to accomplish it

-Can your character read or write?: Can read, but does not know how to write yet, all he knows is battle.

-Can your character mine?: It is in his blood, even though he has never held a pick before, he would be quite skillful at it if he so pleases.

-Are you a capable builder?: Much repair work was constantly done on the crumbling keep with which he grew up in, so he has a knack for it.

-Can you wield a sword?: No, axes are Aulmon's weapon of choice.

-Enjoy Farming?: Not at all.

-Does your character have any special skills?: His greatest asset is his nimbleness with an axe, although he does know repair quite well, from his years as a blacksmith.

-Other Information: I would just like to say that I spent 2 hours on this application. I worked very hard on it and I am quite proud of it. If I am not accepted, I will keep trying until I finally get in. Thanks!
