Small 2-3 Sentence Description of yourself:

Well, I'm a freshman in Highschool (Grade 9). I've currently had Minecraft for little over a year now (Beta 1.2), and have played on a multitude of servers. I've played on everything from Survival to Creative to PvP and back.

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

Anywhere from 12-16 hours.

What do you know about Roleplaying? Give a definition of what it means to you: Well I don't really Roleplay often. I've played on a few Garry's Mod servers such as Jailbreak servers in which you've had to Roleplay, but I wouldn't really count that as serious Roleplay. Roleplaying to me is the changing of ones self, to behave like and act-out something your not. Usually a fictional character in a fantasy world. Roleplay can be somewhat of an escape or release, into a world where you don't have to be yourself, because you simply be whatever you want to.

What experience have you had in Roleplaying, if any?: Not much, like I said above, I've played on a couple of RP Garry's Mod server, but that's about it.

Using a form of OOC or Global Chat to gain unknown knowledge. Like telling your equals to meet you at a certain locations, through the use of OOC.

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

Power-Gaming is using unfair in-game emotes to give yourself a upper advantage during RP.

What do you expect this server will be like?:

An open world where a user can go an explore, bind together with equal players and enjoy themselves in an an LoTR based RP.

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

MineTown, quit because it got way to dull. FyreUK, building became to much of a chore and I lost interest. SiegeCraft, the PvP became way to easy, as more advanced players left (mostly because of world-reset).

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:

Yes.

How did you hear about us?:

Saw you thread on MinecraftForums and watched your trailer.

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?

Not my business, don't interact, especially if no orcs are involved.

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?

Implying that the merchant is selling supplies that pertains to potion brewing, I looks through his stock and pick out what I need. Once I've found everything I pay the man and go along on my way.

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 look around to make sure its completely abandoned, and then proceed to take the items inside and continues on my way.

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 kindly greet them and ask if they could spare me some grub, and explain to them that I'm lost and starving. If they ask for something in return I tell them I can provide a couple of potions in the future.

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?:

If the bandits don't effect my personal, then its the guards job to protect their town. I do nothing and continue doing whatever I'm doing.

Why did I deny you?

Your ORQs were extremely short...

Short answers in the ORQ section are not adequate. We need to know what your character sees, thinks, smells, feels and hears in that situation, to an extent that we are there, and we know exactly how your character would react if it were allowed into the world of Asulon.

A problem with lore...

You mentioned:

The Sword, when going into the Nether to retrieve your potion supplies, the sword is every creatures best friend.

The Nether was destroyed when the Axe was removed. It was the hive of the Undead, and when the power that was flowing through it was removed, it collapsed killing most of the expedition that were sent to obtain it. This outlines an obvious problem with your understanding of the lore, and I suggest you read more about the move from Aegis to Asulon, and the events close to those dates.
