My 4Th Application

[bloxant 0]

Out-Of-Character:

Minecraft Account Name: bloxant

Did you attend minecon and sign up at the LOTC booth?: No, i'm too poor to have gone to minecon

How old are you?: 12 (but very mature)

Time-Zone/Country of Residence: GMT, England

Do you have a good grip on the English language/good grammar?: I would think so, I am called names (in a friendly way) by my friends for being OCD when it comes to grammar

Small 2-3 Sentence Description of yourself: I go to school everyday and when I get home I always do my homework as soon as possible (I am reliable)I am very intelligent and have a history in roleplaying.

How much time could you be on the server weekly?: I have school, so 4 until 9 every day except weekends and holidays which could probably be all day.

What do you know about Roleplaying? Give a definition of what it means to you.: Roleplaying is when you pretend to be someone, perhaps another person, or yourself, there are many forms of roleplaying, such as roleplaying games, in which you play a certain character. There are also games where you can create a character. To roleplay as well as possible you must immerse yourself in the world and the character. I love roleplaying as I used to play LEGO as a child, but focused more on the figures than building. I hate when people are bad at roleplaying, and start powergaming or speaking in language like: Yo mah homies I is in da place, wuu2? LOL in medieval situations.

In your own Words, describe what Metagaming and Powergaming are. Metagaming is when you use OOC information in character for example: OOC chat: 'I'm enjoying Laurelin (I think that's how you spell it, can't rememeber since it's Asulon now) very much' Whilst in character someone goes into Laurelin and kills the person who talked in OOC, using the OOC info. Powergaming is when someone claims to be better than they are, which involves saying stuff like: /me kills Steve with my amazing power which makes people implode and then I get all their health. Or suddenly claiming to be a prince/princess or king/queen

What do you expect this server will be like?: I have looked through the site and watched TeamLDU's playthrough of it, and it looks really nice

What other server(s) have you played on and why did you leave them?: Couldn't find a server that was good AND popular except this one, which I applied to but wasn't accepted because of a not detailed enough bio

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

How did you hear about us?: Through candle's videos (I think he's banned though) but mostly TeamLDU

Have you voted for the Lord of the Craft on Minestatus? Which vote number were you? Yes I have, I was number 1848. I got the 502 error for a while so that number may not be correct.

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

In-Character:

Character Name: Wistonis

What is your Race?: Elf

Biography(This should include the history of your character and his life as well as age, appearance and personality, etc.): From his birth, Wistonis was very intelligent and wise. He quickly grasped the speak of Elves, Humans and Orcs as his parents travelled Aegis. As well as learning their language, he learned their way of life and soon he developed traits like the stereotypical races. He became a fierce, strong warrior like the Orcs (not as good as most orcs though, that would be powergaming) but got honour and integrity from the Humans (once again, not as much as the humans). But last of all he became a proper Elf and developed an architectural expertise, a peaceful personality, and a great ability in archery. Soon his parents stopped travelling and settled down in Laurelin where they had a daughter. Ten years passed, and his parents split up. He was already 16 by that time, and he had become a strong, young and attractive boy. He began to hone his archery skills, and used to use his sisters dolls as target practice. His sister soon grew fond of her mother, whilst Wistonis was on his fathers side. Soon his sister started to hate Wistonis and when she became 14, she developed a magic expertise. She used her hatred to channel that magic, and became a dark mage. She left to join a coven, after she fatally wounded her brother. Wistonis was fine, using his talents in herbology to heal himself. He never saw her again and despite their hatred of each other, hopes she made it to Asulon. His parents got back together when his sister left, just a year before Aegis was lost, they didn't go to Asulon, and perished at the hands of the undead. He has brown hair and a beard, and prefers the colour green. He also has the habit of getting too attached to his friends, as he isn't very charismatic and has few friends, he also has a deep sense of loneliness since his parents left him leave in the boats to Asulon, therefore he is also independent (money, work and skill- wise).

Your characters ambitions: Only to help others.

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? 'Hey, you there! Get away from that poor soul!' he shouts. 'Ha, what are yer gonna do?' says one bandit. Then Wistonis withdraws his bow and reaches for his quiver. He then aims for the bandit's knee as he charges at him. He releases his grasp on the arrow and it immediately hits the knee of his attacker. The bandit falls on the floor, gasping for breath. The elf, now not overpowered or overrun, defeats the other bandit, who falls to the floor. I then tell the Elf to get inside and recover before questioning the bandits. I heal them both and send them on their way, after they promise to never attack people again.

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 morning(or Good day, or night) I was just passing by when I noticed you were selling (etc.) Might I have the amount you are selling for 10 Minas? (or however much I have)'

Take time to expand upon your character, proof-read your application, read up on server lore and rules and fix the problems with your app. Do not repost you application with 24 hours, use this time to build upon it and ensure perfection. Feel free to contact me on either the Teamspeak channel or through the forums if you have any questions, comments or concerns.

#1 You posted inside of 24 hours from your last denial. Please wait the full 24 hours before reposting following a denial.

#2 There are elements of Powergaming in your biography. You are a strong warrior, but also had time to learn all these other things from other cultures, including expert archery?

#3 Lore inconsistencies. You are an elvish family, but your parents managed to have two children in an apparently short time span, more importantly these children were allowed to just free roam the world, going to places even as dangerous as Orcish lands rather than not being sheltered and coddled safely in elvish lands?

#4 More lore inconsistencies. An Orc apparently taught you to fight, but you didn't learn honor from the Orc, instead you learned from a human? First, virtually no Orc would take the time to teach some traveler's son when they them self is not an nor a member of the Warnation. Second, Orcs were specifically the race blessed with Honor and Valor, and spreading that Honor and Valor where they go. Yet for some reason the Orcs did not teach you honor even as they taught you to fight, where Honor and Fighting go hand in hand for Orc society?

#5 More explanation needed in the following questions:

~Character's Ambitions

~Merchant Scenario question (Ooc "ect." is not acceptable in this IC scenario. Unless your character would actually walk up and say "I noticed you are selling ect." please play out every part of the scenario. If you have nothing to purchase, take a different approach. Use you imagination.)
