Re: Morganmc's App

[Morg 10]

Out-Of-Character

Minecraft Account Name: My account name is morganmc

How old are you?:I will be 18 in a month but as of now I am 17.

Time-Zone/Country of Residence: I live in the U.S.A in Central Time Zone (more specifically Alabama).

Do you have a good grip on the English language/good grammar?:I am a Senior in high school taking high level English, so I think I know English grammar pretty/ spelling fairly well.

Small 2-3 Sentence Description of yourself: Like I said above, I am a 17 year old senior in high school. I am on the school soccer team and choir, and involved in a couple other school activities. But outside of that I like video games, reading, and jumping on my trampoline. I have always wanted to get a chance on the server.

How much time could you be on the server weekly?: I can get on everyday for about an hour or more (depends on homework), I would say about 10 hours a week.

What do you know about Roleplaying? Give a definition of what it means to you: I actually have never really role-played before officially but it looks like a lot of fun. From what I get from it, it looks like people just getting the chance to act out another person's life. Or immerse yourself in another world through words and actions by playing out what you/your character would do in it.

What experience have you had in Roleplaying, if any?: Besides Skyrim, not much.

In your own Words, define what the act of Meta-Gaming is: Meta-Gaming is when the player does something in the world that his/her character wouldn't do or know about. Some could say looking at people's name plates is meta gaming. Another example would be if you found some secret out from a friend and took advantage of it, but your character would not have known about it at all.

In your own Words, define what the act of Power-Gaming is: Power Gaming, from what I have seen is gaining the upper hand over another player by unfair means. Like attacking when he is not looking or unprepared, this makes the game a lot less enjoyable for everyone.

What do you expect this server will be like?: A great Role-playing server filled with adventure and overall good times. A place to meet new people while doing something I couldn't do on any other server.

What other server(s) have you played on and why did you leave them?: I currently play on the Zelda Universe SMP server. I used to be a head admin of Little Craft but then it went offline. I have played on numerous other servers and left either because it got stale/wasn't what I was looking for, or I didn't feel like I was progressing a whole lot.

Have you read, understood, and agreed to the rules?: I don't know why anyone would disagree to the rules, but I agree. Yes, I understand them as well.

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

How did you hear about us?: I was looking through Minestatus.com and saw your name in the listings. Right when I read the description, I had to check it out.

Have you voted for the Lord of the Craft on Minestatus? Which vote number were you?: To tell you the truth, I have not voted yet. By the time you read this though, I should have voted.

Have you posted this application on our minecraft forum thread yet? If not, just finish it up on here and then copy + paste is over there. (http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/832121-%E2%96%91%E2%96%92%E2%96%93-the-lord-of-the-craft-%E2%96%93%E2%96%92%E2%96%91-enter-the-world-of-asulon-o-f-f-i-c-i-a-l-l-y-t-h-e-n-o-1-r-p-s-e-r-v-e-r/):

Character Name: My name is Morg......short for Morgan.

What Race are you?: I am an honorable human.

What Sub-Race are you? (note, you aren’t required to have a sub-race): None

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 was born the son of Jacob the Woodsman, and Marian of Ravenwood. My father was a successful hunter in the lands of Asulon, he mainly sold leather and other products made from animals:bows (spider web), arrows (feathers), and leather armor. My mother, Marian on the other hand grew up very sheltered in the town of Ravenwood. But one day my father came to Ravenwood on business and met my mother. They always told me it was love at first site, whatever that means. They moved out into a cabin outside of Ravenwood. My dad's business flourished there, and soon enough they had me, Morgan. I was never too fond of the name, for it sounded too feminine for my taste. Morgan was my mothers maiden name so I didn't care to argue about it. My parents were "understanding" about it though, so they shortened it to Morg when I was 4 years old. As I grew older my dad taught me how to use a bow to hunt and collect skins for his business, I had gotten really good at using it. Using a bow was second nature to me. My strong arms could pull back the string with ease and my dark bangs were cut short so I could see clearly. Life was great, living with my Mother and Father in the woods, not a care in the world. Until that day. I was 14 when it happened. One night I heard a terrible scream coming from my parents room, thieves had come to take all of my fathers wealth that he had saved up from selling his goods. I don't know who they were or why they would do such a terrible thing, but they killed my parents in cold blood. I grabbed my bow and ran out the door. I cant believe I was such a coward, I should have helped them. I know there is nothing I can do about it now. I am now an 18 year old young man. I have sworn to protect innocent people like my mother and father, whether it be from thieves or the unholy undead. I hope to also redeem my fathers business. Its what he would have wanted. Most people would say Im brash and foolish, but I just say I'm courageous. With this growing darkness closing in on our lands. our people are in more need of heroes than ever before.

What is your Character's ambitions?: I hope to rid this land of evil or foul ambitions with my trusty bow., while also continue on my father's business in selling animal made products like a true woodsman.

What is your character’s favorite tool? (sword, pickaxe, shovel, etc): Bow and Arrow is what I use the most, I also always bring a stone sword with me just in case.

What is one of your Character's most skilled talents? My most pronounced skill is Archery and hunting. Hopefully one day I can put these talents to good use for the good of our land.

A screenshot of your skin (must be in proper format): (in attachement) I'm pretty good lookin' if I do say so myself.

Other Information about your Character: I am kind but young which means I am a little less mature than some other characters but I try my best to keep up with seasoned warriors and business men.

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? I would probably jump right in and try to stop the guards with smart talk. If that does not work, I threaten them with my bow. If they don't take me seriously I shoot.

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? I would ask what he is selling. But I would be more interested in getting tips to run my business from seasoned merchants such as him. After I had gotten words of wisdom and maybe even a cool new item I would wish him farewell and continue on my journey.

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?: I, having a strong sense of justice would not have the heart to take them, though I would feel very tempted. I would walk on leaving the items for someone who has a better use for them.

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? I try my best to understand with the ringing in my head from exhaustion. I would try to get water from them by describing it, and when I am well offer to sell some pelts.

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 would surely help, for bandits are the very type of people that killed my beloved parents. I would stay at a distance and take the bandits out quickly and quietly with my bow. After it was over I would, take half the money. I'm young, I like money and he offered it too me but I would feel guilty for taking all of it.
