Jason_Brainbarge's Application

[S.T.So5 1]

Out-Of-Character:

Minecraft Account Name: MrBull

Did you attend minecon and sign up at the LOTC booth?: No.

How old are you?: 18.

Time-Zone/Country of Residence: My timezone is -6 Central, United States.

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

Small 2-3 Sentence Description of yourself: I'm a calm playful gamer eighteen year old. I don't let my emotions take over my actions, but if I'm mad I just relax and take a small quick nap. I'm clumsy in real life, but that doesn't effect me at all in some cases.

How much time could you be on the server weekly?: Most likely I would be on for around 1 hour or 2 hours a day, but weekends I have much more time on my hands.

What do you know about Roleplaying? Give a definition of what it means to you.: To me, role-play is a role in a character that you're not in real life. Like a simulator of another person's life and how you would act if you were on that person's shoes. To feel his emotions and do what he would do in that situation, not what you would do.

In your own Words, describe what Metagaming and Powergaming are. A farmer goes up to a stranger and sees the stranger's nametag, the farmer then shouts his name according to his nametag without knowing it in-character. This is metagaming. While also taking OOC text IC is metagaming, such as browsing the forums and knowing the location of a secret ship. Powergaming is when a person does/has something that isn't realistic. Example: Ronnie beats up 2 knights with his own bare hands and manages to come out unscraped. Another form of powergaming would be disregarding other's RP just to better yourself or because they're not playing out the scene to your liking

What do you expect this server will be like?: I don't expect anything, but the role-play I get to enjoy in-game.

What other server(s) have you played on and why did you leave them?: N/A

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

How did you hear about us?: I saw a thread about this on a SA:MP community forums.

Biography(This should include the history of your character and his life as well as age, appearance and personality, etc.): The Brainbarge family can follow their family blood line all the way back to Lavandros Brainbarge the very first Brainbarge family member, formed by the uniting of two families by the act of marriage; the marriage of Hovos Brain and Luxius Barge. The Brainbarge family is known for being well accustomed with the act of commerce and trade, many of the family members spending their entire adult life in trading caravans earning their fortunes so they may continue this form of lifestyle, while also sending back their profits to the family household.

Although the Brainbarge family has now whittled down to a mearge number of sixteen family members ((four of these will be people playing as the characters themselves)), many of them in caravans and several back at the family household raising the Brainbarge children. However there are several exceptions to the Brainbarge trader lifestyle where some of the offspring go on to become farmers; healers; adventurers and, although unfortunate, a few have become bandits.

Jason became a farmer after travelling with his older brother. Although his brother didn't enjoy the thought of leaving Jason behind on his own with strangers, he knew it was the best option for him, as not to corrupt him further. The two brothers had a long discussion about their future and what they wish to be able to do for the rest of their life. Jason knew he would love to become a farmer until his bones would no longer support such a trade. He loves the dirt, mud and mother nature all around; he would once go out to look upon the stars at night, wondering how he could ever of been a human, since he was always more Elven. Jason's older brother then agreed with Jason to stay in the small town that they had been visiting for a short while. They began to search the area until they found a local wheat farm and the owner working on his crops, they asked if it would be alright if Jason could stay with him to learn his trade, in repayment he would gain an extra farmhand and all it would cost is some food and a roof over his head. The farmer chewed over the idea of gaining an extra worker, rubbing his chin for some and examining Jason. The old farmer gave Jason a basket filled with rice and told him to sort it out, to see how much he'd need to learn. Before the day turned to night, Jason went back to the lodgings to find that his brother had packed and shipped off to join his other relative which required his assistance, leaving nothing but a note reading "One day, we'll be together; all of us, together."

Many years had passed and Jason stuck to being a farmhand, until the farmer passed away leaving all of his possessions to Jason due to having no immediate family of his own. Jason used his new assets to continue manning the farm, until a letter arrived one faithful day reading "It's time, a cart will be there for the next blood dance, we need you." Jason quickly sold all of his property and bought as much equipment as he could before setting off.

(The reason the story has no past history of Asulon/Aegis and is being ambiguous is because the Brainbarge family chronicals are currently being written down and I don't wish to contradict those as I'm partaking in writting them and I simply don't wish to contradict the history by guessing what my character was doing at a certain point in time as Aegis fell when the family may have been doing something other than what I state. But I do not wish for this to seem like I haven't read any of the Lore in this server, as I have spent several hours reading it and discussing it with my OOC friends who will also be playing with me on this server.)

Your characters ambitions: Jason's ambition is to live and pass on his wisdom to the next generation.

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? After glancing at the elf fighting the bandits, Jason would quickly scan the area and the three individuals fighting to ensure he wasn't spotted before making a quick dash away from the scene. Jason isn't a fighter and can only hold up a sword because of the many hours of working the fields. He knows he'd be outmatched even with the assistance of the Elve.

Your character walks up to a shop in a quiet market. "Hello, my good sir!" says the shop owner. "What may I help you with today?" How does your character answer? "Good evening sir, I was wondering if you have any boots for a bargain price? Working the fields takes it toll, even on a handy pair of boots like mine! I'm looking for something that can last twice as long and not make me sink as if I'm in the marsh. And while I'm here, do you know any local Inns that cater to specific items in abundance? It's quite a trip back home and I haven't brought enough supplies for me and my children to make it back."

Please be patient as it can take a GM up to a day or so to promote you in game. If you have any questions in the mean time, feel free to contact me on the forums! :)

Even though you did not include lore into your biography, you have shown that you actually have read and understood the lore.

Although the second RP sitution could do with a bit of work (because it is rather generic, Hi can I please buy ___), the rest of your application makes up for it.

Welcome to Asulon! :)
