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

Role playing to me is acting, most of the time in a game for me. It is like being in a movie with no script and you are a character that you have made. Another definition from me reading some of your definitions half way through me righting this app is basically immersing your self in a role that you have made.

What experience have you had in Roleplaying, if any?:

I have role played on few other Minecraft servers such as TrueMineCraft witch wasn't really RP all the time and more us helping a soon to be found crazy (after some extensive raging about a server that he was merging with stealing players) with his book, and I am Currently playing on a GTA rp server.

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

Meta gaming is when you use OOC info to affect your actions IC, such as using the nameplate above someones head to find them while they are hiding or finding out on TS that Bilbo the knight is sending two of his friends to your house to kill you and you with this info immediately

drop what you are doing to lock all your doors and hire guards.

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

Doing something to gain an advantage over other people such as spending more time than they would IC gathering diamonds in the mines or striping the landscape bare just because you want all the wood.

I doubt this is right but its what I think meta gaming is.

What do you expect this server will be like?:

A fairly larger server with a fairly large player base that will provide a great RP experience, and what I hope to be a friendly community

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

I played on Trueminecraft and left because lawman the owner went crazy and sklas witch was great and filled with pretty EPIC story's but sadly it just died out after a while.

Arkio's life has been filled with slavery, death and tragedy.. but also with hope and love.

As a child Arkio lived on a small farm with his parents Mandy and Helix Elthain along with his older brother Umune. Life was good.. they were not poor but not rich, and Mandy and Helix raised there sons teaching them the importance of love, compassion and friendship. Most days Arkio would stay inside and play with his toys, for the world outside was filled with danger, and sadly in the middle of a calm night evil struck there humble farm. The crops were set ablaze as Arkio's mother fell to the ground in front of his farther's dead, lifeless corpse screaming for her child as he was shoved onto the back of a slaver's horse.. his hands and feet bound with rope.... Arkio was only five when this tragedy unfolded and child slaves could, and were sold for an extremely high price as training from a younger age proves to be much more efficient. Arkio was brought and sold many times and by the age of 16 he ended up the slave of a kind old Steel smith.. Arkio's new master treated him more like a son than a slave, teaching Arkio how to forge steel into beautiful weapons, he taught him to read and right and the basics of welding a sword along with many other things, and one day the master asked Arkio to travel to a distant island to trade spice, when Arkio asked why his master was not going he simply said "I trust you.. now go there waiting for you at the docks". The journey was long and it seemed like they were going to make it without a single storm, but just when the men were preparing to lower the sails and drift for a bit something struck them, they thought it might have been rocks, corral maybe, but that wouldn't of explained the sudden storm that hit.. The sailors rushed in a panic to secure loss cargo before the storm got so ruff that the cargo would do more bad than good, but in the panic something happened, something unexpected, something that couldn't be explained. An explosion below deck blew men off the ship left and right, Arkio one of the men who fell of the side, landing on a large plank of wood and being knocked unconscious.

This was just the beginning of a great chapter in Arkio's life.

Arkio soon found out that he wasn't alone on this strange island, for after only a few minuets of walking he found a city, not a large one, but one filled with life and sound, wonderful sound for it was the festival of the seventh dawning, a festival held every seven years in honor of a new king being crowned. That new king would soon turn out to be a tyrannical mad man thinking he had the power of the gods, and Arkio would soon lead a rebellion to free the land and be rid of this evil king.

The battle raged on for several days before Arkio's forces pushed through to the main gates of the kings citadel.. slaying all who did not surrender to him and as they downed the doors to the throne the king, standing on the marble steps of the throne room, drew his sword swinging at Arkio with all his might, narrowly missing and falling froward.. Arkio plunging his sword into the kings back, pulling it out, blood spurting from the wound, the kings dying words drown out by the cheering of Arkio's soldiers "Evil.. coming... you cannot...." Arkio plunged his sword once more into his back whispering in his ear "Your lies will no longer fill these halls"... On that day a new festival was held, one that would pronounce Arkio the new king....

The mad king was not wrong, for evil did come.. and evil that cannot be defeated.. the city's were set alight by warfare and endless destruction, demons filled the land, and as the last ships fled from the har

bors, the land was left a war zone, each city's army held as long as they could but non were strong enough to stop the horde of undead.. many family's were killed during the many sieges, and when the fighting finally grinder to a halt, the island vanished, some say it was eaten by a sea monster, others say it was never there in the first place, no one really know's what happened to it, not even Arkio. And this is were Arkio's adventure really begins, for his ship has sunk and he found by fisher men, taken back to there port, given something to eat and sent on his way, out into the land of.... Auslon! (Of course Arkio has no royal status in Auslon and isn't anything more than a homeless man.. for now)

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? Arkio would slowly walk towards them saying "Is there a problem here" attempting to intimidate them, if that doesn't work he would attempt to bargain with them, after all whats a little money, or a sword for a poor mans life, Arkio does want to change the world for the better so saving lives would work towards that. And at last if that didn't work he would attempt to get them to chase him giving the halfling time to escape, what happens when he stop and fights them isn't for me to decide.

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?

Arkio would lift his hand up waving to the man while saying "Hello.. what can you do for me well nothing really... but can I do something for you?" Arkio would attempt to help the man in anyway possible if there is nothing he needs help with than Arkio, depending on the status of his supply's would buy more from him.

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?: Arkio would look around for a while to see if there is any trace of someone living there, then if there are none Arkio would wait, and if no one comes, he would take it for there is no reason to leave supply's behind that could help my over all goal.

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? Arkio would great them back saying something like "Ahhh it's good to see someone out here" then explain his situation to the traders asking if there is anything he could do for some food and water maybe even a map, if they offer him food for nothing then he would take the food thanking them, if they do have a job he could do for food and water he would do it for once again it will bring him closer to his goal of turning the world into a much much better place.

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?: Arkio ask around to find out were the town guard offering this reward are, if he finds out he would diffidently help them, if the bandits pose a big threat then he wouldn't hesitate in killing them, but if they give in Arkio would turn them back to the guard.
