How much time could you be on the server weekly?: Most of the time depending on my college schedule which will no longer apply after july although afterwards a work schedule will have to be taken into account

What do you know about Roleplaying? Give a definition of what it means to you: Roleplaying is a mixture of experiencing through your character what is impossible to experience in real life as-well as showing sides of you readily accepted by the community which might not be so acceptable in reality and using this alter ego to band up with others that have this interest and act out events like a play which has no script and limitless possibilities

In your own Words, define what the act of Meta-Gaming is: transcending what the character knows and implicating actions onto the character to react to these unseen events

In your own Words, define what the act of Power-Gaming is: a little bit like godmodding e.g. maximizing a characters potential past what a normal character of its type would have, to give it some overpowered abilities or to remove limits so become invincible or a character that can do anything (for example a frost mage that can cast any spell it wants or an archer that has a mastery of blades and bows)

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.):

dragon-human version

Wicyaer, once a dragon lord that lived upon the mountains of high talon-glade proud of his empire and his people and with the heart of a true and fair ruler, a perfect king some may say although his only happiness was in his people's happiness as life went on slowly in the glade with little to disturb the peace.

until humans came along

they first demanded land from Wicyaer and when he declined they then threatened to make his people their slaves, not standing for this Wicyaer took up arms and rallied his people telling the humans to retreat or die in their advancement across his small world

the humans quickly took up arms in response and thus the first draco-humanis war was to be written in the blood that stained the sands of the battlegrounds where they fought

great casualties ensued on both sides with the dragons coming out victorious but at a cost

7 of the greatest dragon heroes where lost, Wicyaer, Scarlett, Woricallia, Riaw, Poluarius, Rankaris and Lirus

now forced to exist in human form each wishes to return home to the land they once knew but with the blood fang, a group of dragon hunters on the prowl it will be a battle to the finish and with the odds stacked against them the dragons seek aid from their neighboring races, elves, dwarves and humans who believe the atrocities that occurred against the dragons where a blight on their race's name

elven version:

wicyaer was born far away from the other elves, far from the tree lined cities and magical pure white fortresses in a humble town across the border into human territory, his mother had fallen to raiders and his father framed for her murder, beheaded by the outraged townsfolk who found her body

raised by human parents yet always knowing he was different he asked an old sage to tell him all that he could about the boy's past, what unraveled astounded him

wicyaer is the last in a royal bloodline that was overthrown a long time ago by the corrupted elves that eventually became the orcs of mordor, learning of his family's mastery of the bow and hunting skills he took up an enchanted crystal bow which had been left to him by his father and began practicing as a poacher trained in the use of magical arrows by the sage

the sage then gave him 1 final gift, his own soul to give on what little powers he had left to the now fully grown elf and giving him a mission, to reclaim his lands and end the reign of the orcs

however he knew he could not do this alone, he must become a leader of races to take this land taking whatever alliances he could he strives for the power to avenge his family and his honor

the lost prince must find his way into the heart of darkness with an arrow to pierce the eternal night

What is your Character's ambitions?: dragon-human: to avenge his family and defeat the bloodfang so he can return home

elven: to bring his homeland back from the ashes and to avenge his family

(i know they are similar but both of these characters where based off each other)

What is your character’s favorite tool? (sword, pickaxe, shovel, etc): dragon-human: sword

elven: bow

What is one of your Character's most skilled talents?: dragon-human: can survive the harshest wilderness

elven: hunting

A screenshot of your skin (must be in proper format): http://img708.imageshack.us/img708/9008/skinforbothcharacterswo.png

Other Information about your Character: i will limit both of these characters even if it means cutting racial advantages to make it not seem overpowered just please tell me which i can use (dragon-human prefered)

Try to find clues as to who lives here and if it appears that someone was here recently leave the stuff in the chest for them and even wait until they come back so it doesn't get stolen however if nobody turns up after a while use the hut as shelter and take what i need from the chest leaving the rest for somebody else

Other Comments:

You've got quite a few errors, all of which are disclosed (marked) above.

Take a read at our wiki, where you can acquire a knowledge of not only the lore of Asulon, but also how we define some of the roleplaying terms here at Lord of the Craft and perhaps how to Roleplay.

PLEASE RE-APPLY AFTER A 24 HOUR PERIOD, THANK YOU.
