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

What experience have you had in Roleplaying, if any?: As I said earlier, my brother and I used to role play in the yard when we were kinds but I don’t really know if that counts as experience. I haven’t really found a good roleplaying server which is why I am interested in becoming a part in this one.

In your own Words, define what the act of Meta-Gaming is: Meta-Gaming is when somebody finds out personal information in game and uses it to harass another fellow gamer

In your own Words, define what the act of Power-Gaming is: It’s when someone in role playing who is very powerful doesn’t give someone with not a lot of power any chance to defend themselves. So basically in a two words, spawn killing. This also includes blackmailing that person into not telling anyone.

What do you expect this server will be like?: I expect this server to be serious unlike most other servers.

What other server(s) have you played on and why did you leave them?: I have played on many various other servers and I mostly left them because people were being idiots and griefing and giving everyone a hard time.

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

In-Character:

Character Name: It is currently soctopus also, but I will change it as soon as possible. When I was making it, I was in a rush because I had to go to haircut. I just put it in very fast. My new one would probably be Luken Monahan.

What Race are you?: I’m a human.

What Sub-Race are you? (note, you aren’t required to have a sub-race): I have no 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, Luken, grew up in the distant country of Alterindon. My family was the wealthiest in 1,000 miles. My dad owned a prospering warrior school and as a young man he was the best fighter in the country. I was trained as a warrior at his school. My teacher taught with brute force and I was soon a poised, well prepared young man. But from there, it all went downhill.

On the night before my 17th birthday, our house and the school burned down and everyone but me was killed. From then on, I would stay up most nights planning my very own rise to success and to be the next link in my father’s legacy. I am willing to do anything to get there, but mark my words, I will prosper once again.

OOC: He is a very strict, serious man and nothing will stop him from reaching his goals. He is a very skilled warrior trained in all weapons. If he is in a good mood, you can see the light heartedness in him but otherwise he is very straight-forward.

What is your Character's ambitions?: To regain his father’s honor and to be a ultimate victor in battle. If accomplished, he might like to settle down with his fortune with a woman and start that same warrior school.

What is your character’s favorite tool? (sword, pickaxe, shovel, etc): Definitely the sword. This is his main weapon in battle and he always keeps it by his side.

What is one of your Character's most skilled talents?: Combat. He is an expert at fighting.

A screenshot of your skin (must be in proper format): I couldn’t find a proper format photo but it is a knight with a red cross on the front and it is a fairly simple knight. I’m very sorry and I hope this doesn’t affect anything.

Other Information about your Character: I think I’ve covered it all.

Luken would immediately draw his sword and tell the warriors to leave the man alone. Luken isn’t afraid of anything and especially not a fight.

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? Luken would ask the man if he had some extra arrows for his quiver and would be along after that. Luken usually crafts his own swords and arrows but a few extra never hurt anybody.
