You would also notice my glasses, as well, and the casual clothing I wear, such as khaki Pants, and a nice casual shirt.

How much time could you be on the server weekly?:

7 Hours on week days, and probably all day on weekends, depending on if I have anything to do on the weekend.

What do you know about Roleplaying? Give a definition of what it means to you.:

I think I know a bit about Roleplay, considering I have roleplayed in Wow, and some in Swtor as well. When I play Skyrim for example, or any RPG, I try to assume the role of my character. Roleplaying as I see it, is assuming the role of your character, and interacting with other people as your character.

In your own Words, describe what Metagaming and Powergaming are.

Metagaming and powergaming, to me, are controlling the outcome, of just about anything, to your liking through the means of anything not in the spirit of roleplay. An example of this would be using information gained OOCly for IC means. Or maybe in an RP fight, you don't take a hate or you try to force an action onto someone else. Powergaming and Metagaming are just plain ruining the fun of Role-Play.

What do you expect this server will be like?:

I expect the server to be filled with quality Roleplay, hopefully, and filled with unique characters, and people.

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

I have played on the Yogiverse (Yogscast) Rpg Server. The only main reason I left, is because the server is gone, and been gone for quite awhile, and now searching for a new server with quality roleplay.

Have you read, understood, and agreed to the rules?:

Yes, I do.

A few of my friends found this server, and now I’m giving it a try, and liking the lore so far, and the race lore as well.

Biography(This should include the history of your character and his life as well as age, appearance and personality, etc.):

Thoak_Sludgefist was born as a fighter, and with a pickaxe at hand. Sludgefist grown up in the Dwarven mines, where he was raised around dangers, and the chemicals of the rock, and minerals, however that did not bother him. Sludgefist learned how to mine the rock with his father. His father taught him how to mine the minerals at the perfect spot to get the most ore.

After many years of mining in the caves, Sludgefist needed a way to defend himself, as the undead flood into the mines, causing the Dwarves to seal them. Sludgefist decided to learn to a fighting profession. When he decided to either wield the sword, or axe, he wanted neither, and wanted to fight with fists. When he started to learn how to fight with his fists, he would fight in pit fights, and enter competitions in the Dwarven bars. After a few years of training, and fighting, Thoak entered many arena's and competitions.

After years of fighting, Sludgefist decided to retire from the arenas, and learn a side profession. Sludgefist wanted to work with the metals, and irons that where being hauled from the mines. It was decided he wanted to work as a Blacksmith for the Dwarven Kingdom of Kal’Urguan. After a five day travel to the Kingdom, Sludgefist learned the arts, and crafting skill of a Blacksmith, and forged weapons for the Kingdom.

After years of forging weapons, and armor for the Kingdom, the Undead of Iblees was approaching Kal’Urguan. After the undead had storm the gates, and now marched the surface of the Kingdom, Sludgefist went into hiding. After a few days of the undead siege, Sludgefist fought his way through the undead that where left by the attack. After he reached the exit of the fallen Kingdom, Sludgefist made his way to the new found world of “The Verge”, and sprinted to the Dwarven Steamboat. After a year docked, the ships finally set their sails for new land, and away from the fallen world of Aegis, and away from Iblees, and his Undead.

After three years of staying in the Cloud Temple in Asulon, Thoak has been getting sick lately, and having nightmares of the Undead attack of Kal'Urguan. Thoak has been coughing hard, and been loosing his breath. Thoak also been having troubles running, or climbing long sets of stairs without loosing his breath. Thoak believes this is from the cause of "Black Lung". Thoak thinks this is from the long mining days in his childhood. Thoak also been having Nightmares of the Undead, and the attack of Kal'Urguan. This is resulting in Thoak fearing the mindless undead, and skeletons roaming the wilds.

Your characters ambitions:

Thoak's ambition would to adventure in the ruins, and depths of Asulon, and hope to find the rarest minerals, and metals, and hopefully set up shop, and settle down to work his orginal job as a Blacksmith.

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?

Thoak would notice the three in battle, and make his way over there. When he notices the Bandits, he would ready his fist, and attempt to intervene by punching the Bandit in the face, attempting to knock him out. Thoak then looks towards the Elf and the bandit who are in battle, then kneels down to catch his breath. When he looks back up he waits and looks at the Elf, and Bandit again fighting, and after a few minutes of waiting, and after a hacking cough, Thoak unclips his blacksmithing hammer from his belt, and walks up towards the bandit. Thoak then swings his hammer into the tailbone of the bandit. The bandit then tumbles over in pain. Thoak then turns towards the Elf and nods. Thoak then walks away from the sight, and back onto the road, leaving the two bandits to the Elf, and continues his day.

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?

Thoak enters the shop looking about. He then turns toward the Shop keep, walks up towards the counter, and notices that the Shopkeeper does not notice him because of his height. Thoak grunts, and raises his right hand, balling it up into a fist, and slamming it into the counter getting the shopkeeper's attention. When the Shopkeeper looks down at the Dwarf, Thoak asks if he has any ale, even though this is isn't an inn, or Tavern. When the shopkeeper responds Thoak would cut him off, and start to shout loudly "Wot kinda shop doesn't have any ale?! Ye belong in de Nether!" After Thoak is done shouting, he would storm out of the store, and continue his day.
