Hankrecords - Ignar - Application

[Hankrecords 0]

Out-Of-Character:

Minecraft Account Name: Hankrecords

Did you attend minecon and sign up at the LOTC booth?: I wasn't at Minecon.

How old are you?: 15

Time-Zone/Country of Residence: I live in Italy, GMT +1:00

Do you have a good grip on the English language/good grammar?: I can handle English language and grammar quite well. Sometimes my grammar may not be perfect, but I do my best.

Small 2-3 Sentence Description of yourself: I study Information Tecnology. I play Minecraft since Alpha 1.1 or something like that, and I love it. I like drawing, writing, roleplaying and swimming. I am not really social, but I can easily make friends. I am a good builder (in minecraft) and a teamworker.

How much time could you be on the server weekly?: From 14 to 21 hours a week or more, it depends on the amount of homework.

What do you know about Roleplaying? Give a definition of what it means to you.: Roleplaying means leaving daily thougths and venting your imagination, becoming who you want to be where you want to be. It's also a great way to improve your grammar, expecially if you roleplay in a different language.

In your own Words, describe what Metagaming and Powergaming are. It's called metagaming

when you exploit OOC informations IC. (Example:

(OOC) <Mrbubba98>: yo dawg were building a giant underground castle

(IC) <HotPotato11>: My lord, the elves are building a giant underground castle.

(If HotPotato had seen the castle IC, it wouldn't be metagaming)

Powergaming is when you act like your character is God and can do everything.

In a simple RP (not in minecraft), an example could be:

Paul looks at the bullets and smiles, so he does a quadruple jump and dodges all the bullets. Then he pulls out his gun and kill all his 69 enemies with two shots.

In a Roleplay Minecraft server an example could be:

-Player-, with fullbody diamond armor and a diamond sword, goes to an enemy village and kill everybody because they didn't have good armor nor weapons. Then he goes to the village supervisor, kill all of his guards and then tell him "I'M A PRO, NOW DIE".

What do you expect this server will be like?: A great place to roleplay with other people, other roleplay lovers like me. And I love the lore, too. I expect a server that doesn't give much importance to building, but still has wonderful architecture. (As i have seen in the screenshots, it has.)

What other server(s) have you played on and why did you leave them?: I played on a lot of servers, mainly survival factions ones, but I left them because there were too few players or because the players were stupid kids. Actually I play in one server: a roleplay italian server (the only one I think), but I want to try this one because there are a lot of players. But I will not leave the other one, I'll probably play on both. If you accept my application, it's implied :)

Have you read, understood, and agreed to the rules?: Yes, I did.

How did you hear about us?: I saw the topic on Minecraftforum two or three months ago.

Have you voted for the Lord of the Craft on Minestatus? Which vote number were you? I didn't, I don't even know what Minestatus is.

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

In-Character:

Character Name: Ignar

What is your Race?: Dwarf

Biography(This should include the history of your character and his life as well as age, appearance and personality, etc.): Ignar is fourty years old. He is five feet tall, sturdy and strong. He has red, rough and long hair and beard, with a few white streaks coming with the age; he always keeps them loose. His eyes are jet black, with some dark brown shades near the iris. He has a big, knobby nose and a big rough mouth. He doesn't have any distinguishing mark.

Ignar is a calm, simple dwarf warrior. He isn't really greedy, he only mines for passion or necessity. He loves to fight, but he isn't properly brawling. He loves beer, friends and axes; the caves, the dwarven architecture, he also likes building underground. When he hasn't got anything to do, he often reads.

Ignar was born in Kal'Urguan from a smith, Durinor. His father was a severe, hard and cold dwarf who only gave importance to his work; and his mother was the typical invisible housewife. Since the early age he was trained as a warrior and a miner, and he became a dwarf like each other. He made some friend, but still he didn't have a real, faithful companion. He learned something about blacksmithing from his father, but he really didn't mind that job. He was helping in the armory only to occupy the time. He reached the adulthood, and started working to earn something: he mined, he became a city guard -for one year-, he chopped wood, and other things. He met the rest of his family: something like 10 dwarves living in an other part of Kal'Urguan. From his uncle, Thorin, he learned how to cook -not the most widespread thing among the dwarves- but he realized that he was really an awful cooker. His parents died not long ago, but he already went over it. He sold his old home and moved to another place in Kal'Urguam, and he's going to work for someone to earn enough to buy an house.

Your characters ambitions: It isn't ambitious, he doesn't properly have an ambition. He only wants friends, beer and fights.

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 doesn't love elves nor he hates them. He would take his axe and go to fight the bandits.

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? “Good morning. I don't know... show me the best armor you sell here.”
