Do you have a good grip on the English language/good grammar?:Yes, my English grammar is excellent.

Small 2-3 Sentence Description of yourself: I am currently enrolled in an online high school and am hoping to someday be a robotics engineer. I enjoy playing computer games, especially online, and conversing with friends. I also love cats.

How much time could you be on the server weekly?: Maybe 8-10 hours.

What do you know about Roleplaying? Give a definition of what it means to you: I haven't done any roleplaying before, but when I think about what it means to me my heart begins to race. You see, to me roleplaying is when you discard your ordinary self and enter the skin of someone new that is your own creation. You then begin to develop a new way of talking and even thinking that were not your own. You become your imagination.

What experience have you had in Roleplaying, if any?: I have had none. But it seems like tons of fun!

In your own Words, define what the act of Meta-Gaming is: I had to look this one up to be honest. It seems that Meta-Gaming is when you use knowledge that your character in the roleplaying does not possess and use it to your advantage in the game.

In your own Words, define what the act of Power-Gaming is: Another new term! Gee, I'm learning a lot today! Well, from what I read it appears that Power-Gaming is when you cause an unfair advantage against an other player and force upon them an action that they cannot counter.

What do you expect this server will be like?: Epic. Full of things to do, places to see, fascinating people to meet, and adventure.

What other server(s) have you played on and why did you leave them?: I have only played on my friend's server before, and it isn't even a roleplay server. I still play on it, but only when it is up.

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

Do you promise to abide by said rules, and laws? This includes the Server, Forum, and Teamspeak set Rules: I vow to uphold these laws or my guts be spilled upon the ground to be eaten by carrion.

How did you hear about us?: I found you on the Minecraft Forum.

Have you voted for the Lord of the Craft on Minestatus? Which vote number were you?: Yes, I voted. And I guess I'm number 326.

Character Name: Arnok Torgan

What Race are you?: Human

What Sub-Race are you? (note, you aren’t required to have a sub-race):

Biography (Please make this at least 2 paragraphs long. This must include the history of your character and his life as well as age, appearance and personality, etc.): I never really knew my parents. I was told by Ziran, my wizard master, that I had been left on his doorstep one night. I have been raised by him since. When I was six, my aptitude to magic began to show, and so my training began. I mastered many of the basic skills of wizardry that Ziran could teach me and decided that I hungered for knowledge, both of magic and my parents.

And so, that is how I came to be where I am today. I am 20 and have just begun my quest. I wear a red wizard's robe and dark navy blue pants. I have blue eyes, brown hair, and a beard. And a thirst for knowledge.

A screenshot of your skin (must be in proper format):

Other Information about your Character: I despise those who take advantage of others who are weaker and use them to their own advantage instead of trying to help them.

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? He steps between the guards and tells them to stop. They laugh at Arnok and tell him to be off. He hesitates, then says "Sorry," and teleports away with the halfling. When they are away and the effects of the teleport wears off, the halfling thanks Arnok and offers to pay him. Arnok refuses and tells the halfling to go home to his family. The halfling explains that he has no family, and so asks if he could come with Arnok to keep him company. Seeing how the halfling is alone in the world as he is, he allows the halfling to accompany him.

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? "Hello. I see you have many fine items. What are their prices?" When Arnok hears them, he nearly faints. "I apologise, it appears that your fine items are much too fair for my purse. I wish you luck in your enterpenuerall ventures." Arnok then leaves, waving goodbye.

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?: Arnok decides to take a single iron bar, but leaves the rest in the hopes that another adventurer who is much lesser off than he is discovers this treasure as well.

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? "Greetings! I appear to be dreadfully lost and am quite famished. Could you possibly provide some food and information on where I am? Maybe even where I can find the nearest town?" The traders offer him a bit of food and tell him where he is and how to get to a nearby town. With this information, Arnok pays them for the food and info and sets off in the direction indicated.

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?: First hearing of the bandits, then the reward, Arnok offers his assistance immediately. He then works with the guard leader to devise a plan and strategy to defeat the bandits and capture them. When the bandits are taken care of, the guard thanks Arnok and gives him the promised reward. Arnok replies, "It was a small matter, but I am glad that I could be of such assistance." He then leaves to continue with his quest.

I am sorry to have to inform you that your application for the Lord of the Craft, Minecraft Roleplay Server, has been denied. The reasons stated below will be in rather short statements, however, if you wish for an in-depth detailing of your denial, then throw a Private Message my way. I'll be happy to reply.

Reasons why you were denied?

• Your biography contains magic, which unfortunately, I am unable to accept. If you want your character to have magic, then it must be learnt in roleplay, in game.
• This renders quite a lot of your application in-character area invalid. I suggest writing up a new character.

Please remember and wait twenty-four hours before re-applying. As I said before, throw me a PM if you need any help.
