Out-Of-Character

Minecraft Account Name:Beast720

How old are you?:15

Time-Zone/Country of Residence:Eastern Standard time/Canada

Do you have a good grip on the English language/good grammar?:Yes. It has been my first language all my life. I also speak french as a second language.

Small 2-3 Sentence Description of yourself:I am a Canadian who was Born in South Africa but moved to Canada when I was four months old. I currently live with my parents. I'am in grade 10 and absolutely love video games.

How much time could you be on the server weekly?: About 15 hours. It's hard to judge with school. School always comes before video games in my family, however my semester has been very relaxed. I might be able to be on for 20 or more, however during exams my time on the server will be limited.

FFF"]What do you know about Roleplaying? Give a definition of what it means to you: Roleplaying is taking on the role of a made up character. While you are roleplaying you make decisions on what your character knows and not from information that you already know. You pretend that you are the in-game character and you need to act as the character would. Your character can be anything but whatever you are you must act like it. So if your character is dumb but you are really smart in real-life then you need to act dumb in game. It is a way of pretending to be someone or something that you are not.

What experience have you had in Roleplaying, if any?:I have played many Roleplaying games on Xbox 360 (for example Skyrim) and have very much enjoyed this genre of gameplay. I do however understand that this will be a completely different type of roleplay and will embrace it.

In your own Words, define what the act of Meta-Gaming is: Meta-Gaming is using information that your in-game character would not know from sources like TeamSpeak or public chat. So if you hear about a raid on you village, but it was spoken through TeamSpeak then you must control your character as if he did not hear it because in the game he hasn't. Another example is if some broadcasts coordinates to a secret house, then your character can't go there unless he talks to another character in-game that tells him where to go.

In your own Words, define what the act of Power-Gaming is:Power-gaming is when you do not give another in-game character the chance to counter act you actions. For example if I said “I Killed (In-game name) and stole all of his money and jewels” then I would be power-gaming because I did not give the other character the chance to counteract my actions. It is an unfair style of playing the game.

What do you expect this server will be like?:I expect that this Server will be a lot of fun and will be a good environment to have fun playing minecraft on a whole new level. Also that this will be a great roleplaying server.

What other server(s) have you played on and why did you leave them?:I have played on an uberminecraft server and I left that server because I had collected all my resources and they were in my inventory and when I logged in one day they had all been taken away.

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

Do you promise to abide by said rules, and laws? This includes the Server, Forum, and Teamspeak set Rules:Yes

How did you hear about us?: I heard about you from one of my friends.

Have you voted for the Lord of the Craft on Minestatus? Which vote number were you?:Yes. I was voter 3767.

Mattias as a Kid

I was born in the City of Al'khazar. Me Da was part of the town guard. Tis a sad tale about me mother, she passed away when I was a wee boy. From a very early age I have been forced to grow up by me self. Me Da works late hours and often came home too tired to do anything but rest his head. From a young age I was a troublemaker. Oh the fun me and the lads had. We once let out all of the horses belonging to the guards. Haha me and the lads were on the ground laughing so hard watching the guards scramble around to round em up. Me Da was not so pleased. After I had returned home me Pa was a waiting for me and before I could explain me self he gave me three whips with the cane. Me father was a strict one and did not like me being a troublemaker. There are so many other stories I could tell ye but now is not the time. The destruction of Aegis was coming.

The Escape to Asulon

Twas the wee hours of the morning when the Undead attack Al'Kazar. I was in me bed fast asleep when me Pa roused me. Told me that I was to escape the town. I quickly went and gathered me most prized possession. Which included a picture of me mother and me favorite blanket. Then me Pa dragged me out of the house and took me to the neighbors. They were headed for the protection of Alras and me father told me to go with them. When I had asked me Pa where he was going he frowned and handed me his own sword and bow and said that he had to defend the city. Lemme tell tears welled up in me eyes when my Pa launched himself into the fray with nothing but an ol sword. The neighbors quickly bundled me into there chariot and set off. The rest of the escape was a blur to me and I would't of made it if hadn't been for me neighbors. I was so grief stricken that the next thing I knew I was on a boat headed for who knows where. I had quickly found me neighbor and had questioned about me Pa, he frowned and said that no news has been recovered and that he was most likely dead. The trip to the new country was long and by the end of it I was over me grieving. I could not help me Pa now. We had arrived at an unknown land call Asulon.

Life begins in Asulon

When we arrived at Asulon, me neighbors took me in as there own to raise me. When I turned 20 however I left to explore Asulon to get to know the country side. I practiced more and more with me Bow and sword and eventually became very good. My age is now 22 and I have began to search the country side for adventure, to take life as it comes at me.

Open-Response-Questions

Whilst traveling from the Cloud Temple you see a small halfling, being harassed by two armed warriors. They appear to be trying to steal money from him, how does your character respond?

Mattias: Aye, what is going on here lads.

Warriors: we be trying to get our money back, we lent some to this halfling over a week ago and he needs to pay us back.

Halfling: But I have no money sir.

Warriors: Then ye be paying in pain and labour.

Mattias: Hey now, i'll cover the charge.

Warriors: It'd be 200 minas.

Mattias Hands over money.

Mattias: Now be off men.

Mattais leaves.

Your character wanders into Alras, and comes across a small stall, behind which a well dressed man is standing. He’s offering various wares, the merchant turns to you and says in a posh accent " 'ello there, what can I do you for today?" What is your character response?

Mattias: Hello there lad what have you for sale?

Merchant: Aye well I have the best wares in all of Asulon.

Mattias: Well then let me see them then.

Merchant shows him his produce, inside there are some diamonds that spark Mattias' interest.

Mattias: How much fer the diamonds lad?

Merchant: Aye 500 mina lad.

Mattias: That is a lil expensive, I give ye 400 for them.

Merchant:Aye, but me robbin' me self.

Mattias: Thanks lad and and may the land of Asulon give ye many blessings.

Merchant: You also.

Whilst wandering in the wilds, your character comes across a small hut, which looks abandoned. Inside it you see a chest containing a few iron bars, and a golden sword. How would your character respond?:

Aye, I wait around for a while to see if anyone comes to claim thee house. No ones comes by for a many hours so I decide that if it's in the wild then it is fair game for anyone, and with that I take the items and continue on me way.

Hungry and lost in the wilderness, you stumble across a small trading camp nestled among the forest, they greet you you in the common tongue, how do you respond? Common tongue being the only language I speak I respond:

Mattias: 'ello there can ye by any chance spare some food for a hungry lad.

Men at camp: Aye, but only if ye have something to trade us for it.

Mattias: I have this golden sword and some iron ingots. Also I have some leather if ye would want.

Men at camp: Aye how about that sword and bow there.

Mattias: Aye me Pa gave me these before he died and there'll be no chance I will ever part with them, but I'll throw in a diamond.

Men at camp: That'll do here is some soup and ale.

Mattias: Aye bless you sir, will there be but a chance you can show me the direction of the nearest town?

Men at camp: Aye it's that way (Gestures towards town) about a days hike from here.

Mattias: Aye sir, well i'll be off then.

You hear word that bandits occupy the road outside the town in which you have been staying. The town guard have gathered, and are asking for assistance to help eliminate them. The leader of the party is offering a reward for any who offer their support. How does your character act on this information?:

Mattias:Aye so I hear that you be needing some assistance.

Town guard: Aye, there be some bandits that have been threatening the village, can ye help to eliminate them.

Mattias: Aye, but what is in it for me self?

Town Guard: Aye, there be a 500 Mina reward for anybody who aids in the capture.

Mattias: Aye I will join ye then.

I have tried to include as much as I could from the escape from Aegis to Asulon. From the forums I've read this is what I take happened. However since I was not on the server at that time I cannot be sure. Also I do know that I will start with nothing.
