What do you know about Roleplaying? What is it?: To me role-playing is when you live out a second life in a different time, area, dimension, or whatever the role-play is about. It lets you escape from your life and go into your "avatar's" life.

In your own Words, describe what Metagaming and Powergaming are. To me, Metagaming is where you use external information to affect one's in-game experience. While Powergaming is where the user aims to maximize the power the user wields in game.

In-Character:

Character Name: Ryan

What is your Race?: Elf

Biography(This should include the history of your character and his life as well as age, appearance and personality, etc.): A young, brown haired, blue eyed elf named after his father's human friend. Ryan was born in a small community, with only his mother and father close by. He is a rebelious 50 year old who is hated by most in his community. By the age of 1 he was able to quickly load a bow, but he had, and still has, a hard time with his aim. One of the most scarring moments of his life was because of his bad aiming skills. When he was 14, his father was being attacked by a pack of 13 blood thirsty wolves, when he ran out of arrows with one wolf left. He was feeling weak and called out to Ryan to shoot the wolf and save him, but when Ryan shot he missed, and the arrow lodged into his fathers leg, immobilizing him while the wolf killed him infront of Ryan's eyes. Because of this, he became hated within his community. Even to this day his entire family, including his mother, practically disown him.

Your characters ambitions: Ryan's ambitions are to help those in need without showing that he cares. This way he can help others without getting too attached to anyone.

Out in the Wilds, your character comes across a small cottage. Outside, there appears to be an elf struggling combat with two bandits. What does your character do? He would help out the elf, then just leave him there.

Your character walks up to a shop in the middle of Al'Khazar. "Hello, my good sir!" says the shop owner. "What may I help you with today?" How does your character answer? He would most likely buy a few arrows to stock up and a sharpening stone to sharpen his dagger.

A screenshot of your skin:

Other Information: He usually wears grey and black to blend with the shadows.

Your application has been:

The out of character part of your application is pretty good, it is just your In character section that needs work.

First of all your character age is incorrect. On this server an elf becomes an adult at the age of around 200 and 2000 is considered relativley old.

Please include some lore into your application, you can find the link to all the lore you will need in the below links.

I would like to see at least a PARAGRAPH for each role-play question and make sure for the combat question you abide by the rules of combat for the server. In role-play you will need to warn a villain before engaging in combat. At least a couple of lines from each person is needed for combat to initiate or it is considered a no-rp kill and you can get banned on the server for it. Do not just write:

I suddenly pull out my sword and kill the bandits. Then I ask the elf for money for helping him.

Write a dialogue with speech coming from all of the people included.

Do not post another application within 2 days or that application will be skipped.

If you need any help don’t be afraid to send me a PM on the forums.

Good luck :)
