Slayerofbrooms' Second Application

[SlayerOfBrooms 1]

Application

Out-Of-Character

Minecraft Account Name: SlayerOfBrooms

How old are you?: 13

Time-Zone/Country of Residence: Australia

Do you have a good grip on the English language/good grammar?: Definitely. I would be disappointed with a ‘B’ in English.

Small 2-3 Sentence Description of yourself: I am the fifth shortest person in my class, have ginger/brown hair, love my computer, running/athletics, fencing, anything middle-ages, Lord Of The Rings (obviously!) etc. I also love collecting things, like crystals, gemstones, wooden boxes and small trinkets. Also, I love anything random, or of seeming unimportance.

How much time could you be on the server weekly?: I probably spend about 1-2 hours every weekday on Minecraft, and I am tiring of single player and so would spend all of that time on LOTC.

What do you know about Roleplaying? Give a definition of what it means to you: Roleplaying is stepping into someone else’s shoes, you create a character and then live as them, in their city, with their job, and their life etc.

What experience have you had in Roleplaying, if any?: My roleplaying experience is very limited, although I fully understand the concept.

In your own Words, define what the act of Meta-Gaming is: Meta-gaming is playing the game, using information that, ordinarily, your character would have no way of knowing. For example, if you were friends with someone on the server in real life, and they told you that they were planning a raid on your place, then you would take all your stuff and leave. That would be meta-gaming.

In your own Words, define what the act of Power-Gaming is: Power gaming is making your character superior to everyone else’s, or not giving the other person time or an opportunity to react. For example, you are about to commence a fight with someone, and you say *Me pulls out knife, throws it and kills Fred instantly*. That is power gaming.

What do you expect this server will be like?: I’m thinking that the server will be a copy of the world that the lord of the rings is set in, in Minecraft. I don’t really know how to explain it in any other way.

What other server(s) have you played on and why did you leave them?: I have not played on many servers, and they were not very good, as in, boring with hardly any PVP or anything interesting to do. LOTC looks a lot more promising. The servers are: Pitforge, PVP Pitforge, Mafiacraft, Keystone and The Battlecraft.

Have you read, understood, and agreed to the rules?: I have.

Do you promise to abide by said rules, and laws? This includes the Server, Forum, and Teamspeak set Rules: I solemnly swear to obey the laws and rules, which I have been set.

How did you hear about us?: A friend of mine, Thrain_Ironmail was looking for good servers to play on as he was very bored with the ones he had. He was at my place at the time, and suddenly exclaimed ‘Wow! Oh, look at this!’ He had stumbled onto your website.

Have you previously made an Application? If so could you link us to your last Application?: This is my second application. I have not changed it much, apart from taking out the villain application part. :( http://www.lordofthecraft.net/forum/index.php?/topic/52037-slayerofbrooms-application/

Character Name: My name is Valinor Everloch.

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.):

When I was a young boy, I was very happy. Well, as happy as a Mori can be. I was born into a rich family, with a high political position, with many followers, servants and admirers. But one day, the other Mori grew jealous of us. They plotted an attack, and destroyed our entire city. I fought bravely, but was given inadequate weapons to defend myself with. I was lucky, however, and survived. i was the only one. So, for a long time, I wandered the caverns, searching, searching for something; I did not know what. Back then, I was just a young lad, only 92. Only four years have passed since that dreadful day. At any rate, I eventually found and opening to the surface.

Back then, when I first emerged from the caverns, the light stung my skin and blinded my eyes. But I grew accustomed to it, and my flesh began to change from grey to the pink of the native people. I have slowly built a life for myself, up here in Asulon. But I am still haunted by the events that occurred in my childhood. And so, I wish to destroy crime, through a course of non-violence, and one day eventually return to my homeland.

What is your Character's ambitions?:

To become the leader of the political empire, and abolish crime throughout the world.

What is your character’s favorite tool? (sword, pickaxe, shovel, etc): My favorite tool is a sword. It is simply a necessary protection, against bandits, thieves, and the monsters that crawl the street at night. And, as an elf with worse than usual archery skills, it is like a natural extension of my arm.

What is one of your Character's most skilled talents?

I am a very persuasive speaker. I can change people’s minds, stop a revolution, and even turn entire armies around just with words. This is why I believe I should become a politician.

A screenshot of your skin (must be in proper format):

Other Information about your Character: None

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?

‘Hey, you!’ I call. ‘Put him down!’ The warrior sneers at me, and continues to harass the halfling. ‘GUARDS!’ I cry. ‘GUAAAARDS!’ After the two me have fled, I proceed over to the hobbit, and make sure that he is alright.

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 politely decline the man’s offer, and continue 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. This hut seems unoccupied, and so I take the items from the chest. I will probably sell the golden sword, they are worthless as weapons as they are of a soft metal and break easily. It’ll be worth more melted down again. And then there are the iron bars. These I can use, although I will not make anything with them yet unless I need them for something in particular, later.

Hungry and lost in the wilderness, you stumble across a small trading camp nestled among the forest, they greet you in the common tongue, how do you respond?

I stumble into the trading camp, and after the initial shock of finding a trading camp this far out into the forest, ask if they have any food to spare. It turns out they are very kind, and I receive a hearty meal. Fully nourished and healed, I ask if the nearest town is far away. It is still some miles, however, and so the traders allow me to stay in their company until they arrive there. I promise to repay their food, and along the way I manage to hunt and catch several wild cows and sheep, which I give to the traders who supplied me with food.

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’m sorry, but I must refuse this offer’, I tell the captain. As much as I dislike bandits, I cannot harm another living person. I turn away, and follow another long, winding road back around the outskirts of the town. Then, I walk down the road and continue on my way.
