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? Talk to the warriors and tell them to leave the boy alone. If they do not stop, I fight them off while the halfling runs away. I block their attacks hoping they won't notice the halfling running away.

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? Greet him back and say," Hi do you have food, also I could use some arrows." I buy the supplies and wish him farewell.

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?: Leave it be, even if I were to take it, it would be no use to me. I carry on exploring.

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? You ask for any supplies. If they don't have it I go find some food myself. If they do, I buy it from them and ask them where the nearest town is.

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?:Walk up and offer my help, I wouldn't want the town to be unsafe for new settlers to come. I gear up and plan on how to take them out, then put my plan into action. If the guard has a plan I just follow his plan.

Welcome to Lord of the Craft, Jimacat! Unfortunately, your application is not suitable for acceptance on Lord of the Craft, thus was denied. Do not fret! You have a total of 1 application attempts left to achieve implemented (whitelist) status on our heavily populated, high-standard server! You will also not be able to post another application 24 hours from: 14/03/12 (time of this post, located above). Below I shall outline outstanding aspects of your application which specifically affected the decision making system.

Incorrect Definition(s): Your wording of powergaming and metagaming are the primary reason you’ve been denied. It is important to have an advanced grasp of the two in order to have a shot at playing with the community on Lord of the Craft to avoid tarnishing the experience of other roleplayers who understand these concepts. Also, your roleplay definition is incorrect! Please go about searching for the definition on our forums, our on the world-wide web.

Character Name & Biography: Cinder Foot is not an acceptable name for a character of Human descent. Also, your biography is very generic and lacks Lore. You need to have a good understanding of Lore in order to play on LOTC, along with a creative; yet well written application in order to be implemented. I suggest going about searching for the Old Wiki link located in two indefinite sections of the forum. Use the Old Wiki to help improve your biography accordingly. Also, you should look for something significantly more creative instead of the overly used death and revenge scenario. This will provide more roleplay for the community and yourself!

Open-Response Questions: These questions seemingly lack effort. I request that you re-write them in a manner that portrays your characters physical attributes, yet properly represents your characters personality when in situations like the ones stated. Doing so will help the application reader develop a connection with your character, thus improving your chances of being implemented.

Simply improve on the outstanding items listed above and I’m sure you’ll get accepted the next time around! Just take your time, and remain patient for the next application reader to process your application!

Good luck!
