ciansmyth's Application

[Cykan 1]

Out-Of-Character:

-Minecraft Account Name: ciansmyth

-How old are you?: I am 13

-Time-Zone/Country of Residence: GMT -8:00 Pacific Time

-Do you have a good grip on the English language/good grammar?: Yes, I do.

-Small 2-3 Sentence Description of yourself: I'm really into reading and writing. I mainly write about post-apocalyptic things, but have written a few short stories set in more LOTR-type settings. I LOVE roleplay, and minecraft!

-How much time could you be on the server weekly?: If this IS the kind of server that I've been looking for so much, then every single day of the week for at least an hour. EVERY SINGLE DAY.

-How long have you played minecraft?: I've played minecraft since Beta 1.2_02.

-What do you know about roleplaying? How long have you been doing it? What kind?: I know a lot about roleplaying, I'm very experienced with tabletop games and have some experience doing it in online games such as minecraft. I got into roleplay about 3 years ago, loved it ever since. My favorite type of roleplay is fantasy, such as on this server. Roleplay is when you step into the role of another person, or character, in another universe, such as a LOTR-based one. You act as that character and play out what they would do if it was actually you. It's a great way to have fun, but you have to remember that roleplay means you ARE the character. You can't sometimes just let some stuff slip about school if you're not in the OOC chat.

-What do you expect this server will be like?: I expect it to be an AMAZING experience, from what I've gathered from all the posts I've looked at and the tutorial video, I'm almost too excited to type, this looks like the BEST minecraft server I have seen!

-What other server(s) have you played on and why did you leave them?: I've played on Ruined World, which I left because it went down for quite a while and hasn't gone back up. Takes a lot to get into that server, and I'm proud that I did! I currently play on a server called Iconicraft, don't know if you've heard of it but it's got a reasonable player base, just not enough roleplay.

-Have you read, understood, and agreed to the rules? What about the lore?: I agree to the rules, and have read all of the tutorials on the forum site. I'm a bit nervous that I missed something, but hopefully not! I tried to find a lore database, but the only thing I can find is bits of it scattered throught the minecraftforum post. Maybe someone could direct me to where I can read it? EDIT: Nevermind, found it on the Wiki! Loving the lore!

-Name the 4 races on this server. The races are Elves, Orcs, Humans, and Dwarves.

-How did you hear about us?: I glanced over your forum post about a month ago, but was too busy in other servers to get involved in this. Just today I saw it again, and read fully through it, and pretty much wanted to slap myself for not applying earlier.

-Did you vote?: I did vote on all three links, but I just want to say that you should probably let the players see the world before they vote, instead of putting it as a requirement for being whitelisted. It seems a bit down-and-dirty...

-What was your favourite Law?: That you always must remain in RP character! (Except for OOC chat!) Also, the unlawful murder! I hate random killing!

-What was your least favourite Law?: Hard to say, you guys perfected these!

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

In-Character:

-Character Name: Hawker Goldbloom

-What is your Race?: I am an Elf!

-Lordofthecraft.net/forum forum account: ciansmyth (It's my login as well as my screen name)

-Biography: Hawker was born out in the woods, up beyond the tree-city of Malinor. His mother died in childbirth, but was happy to have born a child. He lived with his father, secluded from civilization, but his father once lived in Malinor and visited the Human kingdoms as a scholar. He taught Hawker how to read, write, and play with circuitry. His father also instructed him in the art of the bow. Hawker had to hunt for most of his food, although his family did have a small farm. He lived peacefully in his home, but eventually decided that he wanted to see the cities as his father had done. When he came of age, his father gifted him his bow, and bade him good luck. He asked that Hawker might return before his father became so old that he could not care for himself. Hawker promised his father that he would make his fortune in Malinor, and would bring it back to his father for them to live out the last of his father's days.

I know this isn't required, but I have included a picture of the cottage that he lived in:

INSIDE:

OUTSIDE:

-Character Age: Hawker is 119.

-Character Appearance: Hawker has long, blonde locks of hair, but it is hidden by the hunter's cowl he wears to remind himself of his origins.

-Character Personality: Extremely moral, and always means well. Fairly intellegent, but very inexperienced socially as he has not been in a city or with other people besides his father.

-Your ambitions: Hawker plans to make his fortune in the cities, and return to his father to see him off to the next life. He doesn't know it, but he has the makings of a great soldier, albeit a very moral one. He might get involved in ways he never intended, but that's part of what makes life interesting!

-Can your character read or write?: He can do both very well, his father has been tutoring him since he was only a child. One of his interests is reading stories of great heroes, and is eager to see what the cities might have to offer him the category of books.

-Can your character mine?: Hawker never found the need to mind, and is completely incapable of it.

-Are you a capable builder? Hawker has an eye for interior design, and likes to make spaces look homely, but all he can manage in the category of actual buildings is survival shelters for overnight.

-Can you wield a sword?: Hawker has never touched a sword in his life, so giving him a sword would probably be disastrous.

-Enjoy Farming?: Hawker knows how to farm, but doesn't actually enjoy it. He thinks of it as an extra boost to his food supply.

-Does your character have any special skills?: Yes, Hawker is extremely good at archery, as he has had to hunt for food all his life. He has honed his skills to a professional level.

-Other Information: My hands are shaking in anticipation. Seriously!
