[maxomillion547 0]

Out-Of-Character:

Minecraft Account Name: Maxomillion547

Did you attend minecon and sign up at the LOTC booth?: No, I was unable to attend Minecon.

How old are you?: I am only 15, but very mature.

Time-Zone/Country of Residence: EST - USA

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

Small 2-3 Sentence Description of yourself: I am a bright 15 year-old young man that attends a very high level private preparatory school in Florida. My most favorite hobbies are Minecraft, surfing, practicing guitar, and tennis. I am very experienced in Minecraft, but I'm rather new to role-play.

How much time could you be on the server weekly?: I will most likely be on the server anywhere from 10 - 15 hours a week. This may vary on the weekends.

What do you know about Roleplaying? Give a definition of what it means to you.: Although I am new to the idea of Roleplaying, I think I have a good grasp on the what it is. My definition of roleplaying to me would be to act in the ways of your character rather than as your real self. Also, to play and say what is supposed to happen to the character and not base your character's actions on what I want to happen. My gameplay should include me resulting to fall to an enemy and play what is meant to occur.

In your own Words, describe what Metagaming and Powergaming are. My best definition of Metagaming is to use out of character information to your advantage in any role-play situation. This includes giving the coordinates to a place when they should have been guiding the person with directions, as if a real life situation. Powergaming is to play the role of your character but by means of having yourself be stronger than another without means of reason in an RP situation.

What do you expect this server will be like?: I expect to see good, serious role-players who like to have a fun time. I also believe I will see some great architecture.

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

He was born as the only child in a small wooden cabin in his home kingdom. All of the other children in the village were rambunctious and immature but Maxo stood out by being timid and shy. His mother died at birth. At the age of 21, Kal'Urguan was under attack and he was given his first weapon to help defend. It was the bow. Unaware of what was happening Maxo was caught from behind by an intruding thief. The enemies sword slashed at him hitting his side of his face and nocking him to the ground. Anger raged out of him as he drew his bow back for the first time and let the arrow fly at his opponent. The raider fell with a dark thud after the arrow pierced through his heart.

After they had moved all the raiders out of the village Maxo was rushed to a healing team. He was unconscious for many years from a dramatic amount of blood loss. When he woke up he had a bandage on the front of his face that slightly covered the corner of his mouth. He now wears a helmet to cover his heavily wounded face. Working for many decades he became a master of stealth and trickery. First he practiced with his father in the forests hunting for wild beasts. They practiced in duels between each other with weak wooden swords to train him, so he would be ready to fight with the sacred Crystal Katana, his fathers favorite and most powerful weapon. His childhood consisited mainly of training and gathering items to craft weaponry to prepare for war. His father tought him to take a different approach to attack his enemies. He would sneak through the trees unseen and take out enemies from afar with the bow or if he can get close enough, quickly assassinate from behind and muffle the noise while the enemy is bleeding out.

At the age of 148, Maxo's father has been suffering from a plague that has been spreading throughout the village. Hoping to not get sick, Maxo avoided staying around his father and left the village for a few days to hunt for food to feed him. Off in the darkness Maxo spotted movement. A subtle sound coming from the bushes around him. He just thought it was just some easy pray to kill and eat. He quietly creeped over around the noisy bush to get a better view. An arrow flew over his shoulder and landed on the tree in front of him. It was a trap. A pulse of danger flew through his body and he quickly took cover. On the ground he kept hidden in the brush. Not too far, he saw the attacker. He was heading towards him so he drew out his sword and stood up behind the tree unseen. 100% silently he climbed the vines of the tree to take the duel to high grounds. The enemy wanders around unaware that Maxo is right above him... stalking him. Slowly he places an arrow into the pulled strings of his bow. Aiming down the sights, he releases. Like a missile the arrow impaled his right leg. He fell the to ground and let out a horrible cry. With the sound of scratching metal, Maxo drew out his Iron dagger and finished his prey. Placed on his head is a Beautiful Helmet made out of diamond. Wiping off the blood Maxo put it on his head and let out a feeling of relief.

Maxo retreated to the village with his findings and his new helmet. Abruptly he rushed into the wood cabin. His father was not there.

* while Maxo was gone *

Maxo's father grew too hungry so he went to go out and buy temporary food. During his travels he came across a hooded stranger. They both had a long and awkward staring contest. The stranger placed a Golden Apple on the ground below him and vanished. Dying of starvation his father ran to the apple and picked it up to take a bite. He finished the whole thing and was very satisfied until the poison kicked into effect. Maxo's father fell dead...

To this day Maxo is 255 years-old and still learning the ways of the swordsmaster. He is always dressed into camouflage clothing because he believes battle can break out any time and anywhere. Maxo still has the scar on his face from his first encounter with evil. He wears his diamond helmet and uses his father's Katana to show his dominance. He mourns his father who has tought him everything there is to know. He now has no one but his allies in war. Maxo writes poetry and novels about the saddening events that occur during his life and he is widely known for them.

Your characters ambitions: Maxo wishes to avenge his father by tracking down his killer and making him pay for the sins he caused.

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? With bow at hand Maxo hides behind a tree to get closer to the action. Maxo draws his bow back with multiple arrows to at least weaken them without them being able to spot Maxo. While they are on the ground impaled with arrows at their legs, Maxo pulls out his iron dagger and finishes them both. He then approaches the Elf slowly, making sure not to alarm him as if nothing had just happened. Without talking, Maxo picks one of the bandit's sword and hands it to the Elf. He tells him to hold on to this and always have it with you to defend yourself at any time and any place. For a few moments they both stare at each other and nod seriously as if making an agreement. Maxo walks away with one hand of blood and the other his bow. The elf watches him in shock holding his new weapon.

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? "Why hello there! Have you any bread? I have just run out of arrows to hunt for my own food. Owner responds, "I would be happy to bring some out, how much would you need?" Maxo replies, "I will buy all you have available for me good sir" *hands bread to maxo*

I see your improvements from your first app, although the bio is a tad cliche, I am willing to let it pass because I feel you would be a good addition to the server. Please wait for an GM to implement you, congratulations.
