Frzncld's Application #3

[Frzncld 7]

Out-Of-Character

Minecraft Account Name:

Frzncld

How old are you?:

17

Time-Zone/Country of Residence:

England

Do you have a good grip on the English language/good grammar?:

I was born English and attended a grammar school so I hope so. :)

Small 2-3 Sentence Description of yourself:

I feel that I am Creative and Logical. As well as a person who looks to challenge the boundaries to go further. I enjoy creating alliances and strive for close to 'perfect'. I also aim to get things right first time by spending time creating quality and quantity where needs be.

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

I could play most nights. For around 2-4 hours.

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

Sinking into a character and becoming something which either represents you or represent what you might wish to achieve.

What experience have you had in Roleplaying, if any?:

Honestly, little. That is why I’m here.

In your own Words, define what the act of Meta-Gaming is:

Meta-gaming is the use of out of game knowledge such as statistics to create an advantage or transcend certain scenarios. A common example would be using information your in-game character does not know which you do. Within the server environment this could be using the mechanics of a plugin to increase your advantages detracting from the role-play. This is meta-gaming within a game mechanic situation, but meta-gaming can also be cheating by giving your character knowledge about other characters. For example, another character gives your character a drugged drink. Only you know that the drink is drugged, but your character doesn't know. If you then proceeded to throw the drink away and accuse them of trying to drug you, you would also be meta-gaming.

In your own Words, define what the act of Power-Gaming is:

Declaring or acting as though your actions are always best or successful creating unrealistic role-play. Normally by using physical actions such attacks or through role-play use of /me to give your character advantageous ground.

An example of this could be my character having an unsuitable role or power during character creation or development during in-game play.

Within an acting sense power –gaming would be killing another character on sight or inappropriate /me actions such as *Rotsu rushes around the corner and vanishes from the battle.*

What do you expect this server will be like?:

Expansive, in-depth, rewarding, fun and sociable.

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

I've played on multiple servers such as survival, creative, faction-based, MMO and redstone-creative.

I left many due to their shutting down. The redstone servers lost my interest and so I left.

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.):

Rotsu was the only child of dwarven shaman father Hargin-Godsoath and flax weaving mother Nerka-Godsoath. Rotsu spent his early childhood helping with ritual work and alchemy throughout the expansive family cave system. Rushing from storage room to brewing stand and back again Rotsu would hand his father various oddities. His real interest in life became apparent when on his first herbalist expedition, with father Hargin, he discovered his love of caving and collecting new and interesting ingredients. Throughout the years Rotsu studied the plant-life and creature appendages which he came to hoard in his room. When he was 15 and his father died Rotsu continued the various shamanic tasks which kept the Godsoath family fed.

At the age of 22 he was old enough to venture into the darker and more dangerous realms searching rarer and more potent ingredients to enchant and brew with. His long curls of blonde hair distinguished him from the other cavers who had deep pitch black wisps. A trimmed beard and green emerald eyes decorated the otherwise dirty and coal dusted facade.

What is your Character's ambitions?:

Rotsu's ambition is to one day create a school of shamanic lore. Lecturing on various studies within his encyclopedic knowledge which his father passed on.

What is your character’s favorite tool? (sword, pickaxe, shovel, etc):

A sturdy wooden or iron hoe is Rotsu's preference. However, shears help him with his daily herbal tasks. Such as; vine, leaf and grass collection.

What is one of your Character's most skilled talents?

Herbal study throughout Asulon. Mainly focusing on vine and grass study throughout the elven regions as these hold more value to him. Malinor plant-life is his specialty.

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?

*Rotsu studies the warriors from a distance trying to distinguish race and strength through the slits in their leather armour* -They appear rather weakly armed carrying club-like weapons. Their skin is fair and dotted with scars-

"Stand down from that halfing brutes!" *Rotsu opens his shears and brandishes the sharp guilotine edges towards the warriors*

"Who be you dwaff?"

"Rotsu-Godsoath" *Leaning ever closer to their throats.. Rotsu shouts:*

"I SAID... stand down."

*The warriors mutter and fumble away from the halfing, lifting their feet in a heavy manner.*

"We'z come back for ya dwaff.."

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?

"G'day sir. Any paintings in your stock?"

*The merchant produces various poorly drawn landscapes and offers them cautiously to Rotsu*

"These are real good.."

*Rotsu studies their poor artistry and stares blankly at the merchant*

"I'll be on my way.. Quite worthless items here."

*Rotsu shuffles along to the next stall in the row*

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?:

*He searches through the items systematically and picks up the sword, stuffing it hastily into his shoulder bag of herbs.*

"Mmmmh" Rotsu grunts deeply.

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 elves! Any room I could take for the night?"

*The elves hurry Rotsu inside and tend to his hunger and injuries*

-The night passes by as the traders tell tales from their road going adventures-

-Rotsu listens diligently to the stories of ork raids and human delicacies which they encountered-

-As the morning sun rises Rotsu takes an elvish map handed to him and travels back to Kal'Urguan to seek refuge with his dwarven brothers.-

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?:

"I, son of Godsoath, will take your offer. These bandits will fall!"

*Rotsu steadies his nerves and grips his new guard sword firmly within its sheath*

-As the guard party leaves the gates Rotsu encourages others to take the offer and follow him-

-To no avail he wanders quickly after the guards lifting the sword from its long case towards the sky-
