Biography(This should include the history of your character and his life as well as age, appearance and personality, etc.): I Kronos am an elf archer. I live on a farm on the out skirts of (that elf place). I hunt and farm for a living. I only fight to defend myself. I go into town to buy and sell goods. I hunt wild animals and slay mobs. I have also learned to fight and live for myself and just me and my family. I am a ranger/ archer . I grew up as an orphan and was raised by horrible parents who whipped me to work for them. When they died I had to move away and have lived on the outskirts since then. Then I met a beautiful elf and we were married. I am now 30 years old. I try to stay alone, but help anyone who I see need it. I also give to the poor and needy. I look as an assassin for I am. I know I've said I'm a ranger, but I'm also an assassin. Sometimes I kill as a bounty hunter(if possible).

Now I will tell you of my meeting of my wife. It was a beautiful spring day when I was walking into town. Then I heard a very slight shriek, at first I thought I was just hearing things. Then, I heard it again and I ran to the call. It was a beautiful elf with dark brown hair and the brown eyes with the face of an angel. But that wasn't important, she was being robbed and the bandit was running away. I pulled out my bow and shot the man in his back. I heard the woman shriek as the arrow hit the man's back. He was still. Then I ran up grabbed her coins and jewels and returned them to her. She asked me my name, I said Kronos. Then I asked her her name. It was Glathadrial, the most beautiful name I had ever heard. It was love at first site. She asked me what payment I would have liked for my valiant deed. I said just being able to look upon her beauty a greater prize that 10 diamonds. We shared our first kiss that night under a tree and the full moon.

Once I was hunting for the great thief Bloodnut the cruel. We had actually met before and he had cut two marks on my face. I swore I'd get revenge. Then was my chance. I was then able to shoot him on sight. I had heard he was traveling with 5 other bandits, that coward. Then, I heard a horse and I dashed for the cover of a tree. Luckily it was him. I thought I would have to take out the guards and then get to him. I took my bow and fired three arrows in perfect harmony. Two dead and one bleeding out. Two more arrows shot two more down. I came out of cover and saw Bloodnut right in front of me. IN hand his 2 handed sword. I drew my sword and there was an epic battle. I finally tired him out and cut his throat. I took his body to the king and gathered the bounty. But in battle I nearly lost my arm

Your characters ambitions: I want to be an incredible archer/assassin living on the outskirts with a farm as my home with my beautiful wife.

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 kill the 2 bandits. It would be an epic battle. I would pull out my bow and take down the first bandit. Then, when the other charges at me, I pull out my sword and stab him right in the heart. Then I'd give the elf some materials to keep him/her alive. Perhaps even escort the person.

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 day sir do you have any cheap items at high rareness?" or "No thanks I'm fine for now."

A screenshot of your skin:I believe I'm an assassin from assassins creed.

Other Information: I' very excited to be eligible for recruitment.

Your application has been:

But don't lose hope! After two days you can re-apply which gives you plenty of time to fix up your application and plan it out, as well as use all the advice I am about to give you to make it spot on. Also check out the links at the bottom of this page, trust me they really help.

Your definition for powergaming is incorrect or partially correct but not the definition we are looking for; to find out the correct definition you can do a google search, join our Team Speak channel and ask around or search for Powergaming on our wiki.

Please make sure you have voted as it is a requirement to join the server. The link to the website is here: http://www.minestatus.net/6317-the-lord-of-the-craft/vote

To find your vote number look at the total number of votes for this server, because you were the latest to vote, this number is your vote number. If you do not want to vote because you don’t know if the server is worth your vote or not, log in to the server (IP: login.lordofthecraft.net) and walk about as a wandering soul.

Your biography needs some work put into it. You need to add some more lore into your application such as town or kingdom names, or even people or events from the history of the server. You can find all about the lore of the server from the Lord of the Craft wiki (link at the bottom of this post) or the History/Lore sections of the website and forums. Your character cannot be an assassin if you do not have a villain application which can be filled out after you are accepted. You have also shown that your character has some skill in a bow, but you have not properly justified why your character has such skills. Please add why your character has any skills that he does other then: "I have also learned to fight and live for myself". While this may say that he did learn to fight and live by himself, you havn't shown how he learned etc.

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 as well as the actions of all those involved. This goes as well for the shop question, do not just write a single line, write a full scene. Write the actions of all involved in the situation and what they say, how they interact with each other.

I want to see how good you REALLY ARE at RPing and I want you to try as hard as you can when answering these questions.

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 :)
