Out-Of-Character

Minecraft Account Name:Mas881

How old are you?:13

Time-Zone/Country of Residence: Pacific Coast Time/Canada

Do you have a good grip on the English language/good grammar?: Sort of I am not the best at grammar nor with spelling, but am not horrible so yes I have good grammar but not the best.

Small 2-3 Sentence Description of you: Well I am thirteen years of age, I like play other games like minecraft and maplestory. I also like athletic and sports like badminton and going for a jog with my buddies every weekend while we talk. I am good at academics but my weakest subject is in spelling/language arts.

How much time could you be on the server weekly?: Right now I can only play about 13 hrs a week because of Friday, Saturday, and Sunday I can play longer.

What do you know about Role-playing? Give a definition of what it means to you: To me role-playing means your taking a role or a position of a character and acting like him or her. For example: you are hired to be taking the part of a character like... Juliet, you would be acting like what she would be like depending on what she is like and her characteristics. This is what role-playing is.

What experience have you had in Role-playing, if any?:Yes I have experienced in role-playing. When I was about grade 4 or 3 I liked to role-play as Pokémon with my friends and have pretend battles at our school at recess and lunch breaks.

In your own Words, define what the act of Meta-Gaming is: My definition of metagaming is metagaming is a way when a player uses outside infromation or outside advantiges to use for the player's uses, normally not able to while in a game of roleplayer for example. Example a player looks through a wall and sees a the tag of another player, now he is able to know that the other players is right behind the wall which normally he is not able to know.

In your own Words, define what the act of Power-Gaming is: My definition of powergaming is taking the avatar or character and making it, godly let’s say. You are in a game and say you have the ability to shoot an arrow blind and not even facing a person. This is extremely unreal and unobtainable. So I would say it would mean that the character would someone how describe or make a character unreal.

What do you expect this server will be like? I would think there might be some people that might be sort of rude since no server or at least not at least any I have come across had been anywhere near perfect. But from what I have seen I would think the server would be a good environment to role-play in and some nice ops and people. I would also think it would be so fun, to be truthful I have never found nor played a role-playing server. Just survival and creative with my friends.

What other server(s) have you played on and why did you leave them? I have my own hamachi server so does my friends which makes a total of 3. I have also played marecraft, the reason I left it was because the ops were extremely rude. They swore ALOT and I mean a lot and the people there were actually nice but the ops were making unfun. I also played legendarycraft, I left that because of mainly it was way too laggy. I have played a lot more but the rest arte just go on after 1 hr I go off because of some of the same reason: laggy, rude ops, rude people, glitch, and ops that just don’t care about the server like someone is breaking a rule and he doesn’t even do anything about it.

Have you read, understood, and agreed to the rules? Yes I have ready and understood all the rules stated.

Do you promise to abide by said rules, and laws? This includes the Server, Forum, and Teamspeak set Rules: Yes I promise right here to abide by the said rules and laws.

How did you hear about us?:I saw this once on the popular page on PlanetMinecraft.

Soon enough I was 18 and I was ready to join the army, they said I could not join since I was lacking the basic skills of an archer. The thing was after my parents death I had never practiced archery so my skills were depleting. After I had told my uncle what happened he said he would help me train, soon enough I was in the army.

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?

What I would do is first is go up and ask why he is picking on this small Halfling, but if he responds in a way that could lead into a fight I would try my best to defeat the two and protect the Halfling. Then if I win I would take the Halfling to a safe place and try to help him in any way I could.

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?

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?

First I would try to see if anyone is in the village, and then ask who and why everyone is gone and why is there an abandoned house with free things in it. If the response was because they all went to do something I would try to help them, because of the security I would ask or suggest he makes changes to the chests and doors so each. I would try to help set them up and after when we are done I would leave a note saying "Here’s is a key to your chest and house." Walking away hoping that the owner would found the key instead of a bandit or thief.

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?

You hear word that bandits occupy the road outside the town in which you have been staying. The town guard has gathered, and is asking for assistance to help eliminate them. The leader of the party is offering a reward for any who offers their support. How does your character act on this information?:

I would first ask the leader about the situation, about what the bandits have done. If it was a reasonable answer like "they have stole the entire town's food" or "they have assassinated a villager" then I would agree to help. But in the other situations, saying that it was "I don’t like those guys I just wanted them nowhere near our town!" or "I just want to get rid of them because they are annoying me" then I would try to sneak out first and warn the group of bandits about the assault. I would neither be helping either of the teams because I don’t want to betray my own town on the other hand I don’t want to get involved in a unneeded assault.

Denied.

Please research the term power-gaming more in depth and provide a definition that demonstrates clear understanding of the term.

Your biography lacks lore related material and could use with some expansion around who your character is.

Expand upon your ambition. it's somewhat cliche'.

Why is his sword and bow his favorite tools? Elaborate, where did he pick up the talent to use them? And for what purpose?

Your open response questions are far too short, please expand upon these. They are there to give you the opportunity to show off your mettle as a roleplayer and give us, the application team, the first taste of your character and how you are going to play him. Please don't get lazy! Allow for realistic outcomes, and don't be afraid to get more creative!

You will be allowed to reapply in twenty four hours, if you have any questions regarding your application feel free to drop a PM in my inbox.
