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? Watch what the warriors do, and if they start to hurt him physically I would take my bow, and hit one of them in the leg, and then if the other one runs I would help the halfling. But if the warrior comes at me and wants to fight I would get my sword out and stab him in the leg. So they don't die. And I'de take the halfling with me and take him back to his home.

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 am just looking-Window shopping, you could say *little laugh*"

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?:Take the sword and the bars, and hide them in my satchel/pack. Wouldn't tell anyone about it and use the sword incase danger rises.

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 respond nicely and tell them I had been lost in the wilderness. I also tell them I am hungry. When I am done there I thank them for their help and offer them something of high value.

Why did I deny you?

Your definition of roleplaying was incorrect...

Your roleplaying defintion was incorrect. It did not hold all the information that you need to know in regards to roleplaying in the world of Asulon. You need to know how to do it correctly, and thus, you cannot be accepted without us knowing that you know what it means.

Your definition of powergaming was incorrect...

Your powergaming definition was incorrect. This is a roleplaying server, where you make your own path, not an RPG where you select skills, grind mobs, etc. This is a server that we use our imaginations on! The form of powergaming you mentioned was the type only seen in RPGs. Our type of powergaming is more focused on player to player reactions and how these reactions play out. I will not give you any further information, you will have to find that out yourself.

Incorrect lore...

Your character cannot be Spanish. This is a roleplaying server. You have to be either an Elf, a Dwarf, an Orc or a Human upon entering the server. There is no 'caucasian' subrace. Each race has their own original and unique subrace, like a Wood Elf or a Southerner.

You need a skin...

You need to upload a screenshot of your skin to an image upload site such as imgur, then copy and paste the link into your application.

Your ORQs were much too 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.
