16

Time-Zone/Country of Residence:

United Kingdom

Do you have a good grip on the English language/good grammar?:

Yes

Small 2-3 Sentence Description of yourself:

I am a generally good natured person, preferring to work with others than go 'lone wolf' on things. I also maintain a policy that if you are nice to me, I will return the favour.

How much time could you be on the server weekly?:

Varies depending on my school work. Probably between 2-10 hours a week.

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

Role playing means taking on the manner of a character which you choose, and acting how they would act in response to certain situations.

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

I have done some minor role play on MMORPGs with my guild members.

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

Metagaming is considered cheating by many. Its' when you mix OOC Information with IC Information. It is essentially acting out of character. For example, if I have not met someone before, but see their username, I may greet them with said username, which would be meta-gaming

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

'levelling' your character to make them over powered/strong, and essentially unbeatable. This would include getting full diamond armour/enchanted weapons as quickly as possible.

In a roleplay environment this may also include actions such as saying “I cast a spell, and your head exploded” to get out of situations, which is of course, both boring and wrong :P

What do you expect this server will be like?:

Hopefully with players dedicated to making the most out of the experience which the server is attempting to provide.

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.):

Hamdir always loved the forests, ever since he was just a young boy. He used to run through the cold northern forests with his toy bow, re-enacting the great battles of men, and playing hero. Despite his humble background in the snowy lands of the north, Hamdir’s family was close, and happy. What little food they could find was divided between them (however, Hamdir always seemed to end up with the largest portion.) His father taught him how to cut lumber, whilst his mother taught him how to sew, and properly prepare meat. However, Hamdir’s childhood was soon to be cut to an abrupt and bloody end. A horrible disease killed his once loving parents, and fear of facing the same fate drove the young boy into exile. The forests he had once loved became a place of fear, and despair, but despite these terrifying circumstances, Hamdir never surrendered to the creatures lurking in the shadow, for the blood of the Northmen was with him, and the Northmen do not die easy.

For what seemed like years, Hamdir roamed the dense forests, doing what he could to survive in this harsh, and barren environment. However, as every Northman knows, hard lands, breed even harder men, and Hamdir soon became a near giant, even among his powerful cousins. Stories began to emerge of a man who killed without fear, or sound. Destitute travellers would find fresh supplies resting by their beds when they awoke, or lost men would find the paths through the forest lit with mysterious fires. Stories would circulate of a man with hair as brown as the bark of the great trees of the forest, and eyes so blue, they could freeze a man who stared too long into them. However, despite all his acclaim, the life of solitude was hard on Hamdir, and he yearned for the company, and respect of others, for all that the forest had taught him, it took away his humanity. He found himself forgetting the faces of his mother and father, their dying screams all he remembered of them. He found himself abstaining from human contact, choosing to work in the shadows. But most of all, he found himself forgetting what made humans, human. The ability to speak.

The fall of Aegis served almost as a blessing for Hundir, as it gave him a new start. He could be who he wanted to be, however, no matter how far he ran, even to the new lands of Asulon, he could not escape the call of the wild. He would, just as he wished he had done in Aegis, protect the lands from those who would wish do destroy them, slaying monsters and bandits to keep this new world, this pure world from falling to the vices of the old.

What is your Character's ambitions?:

Protect the people of Asluon, especially his Human kin. If necessary, he will create a neuteral “ranger camp” of which to base his actions in preserving the beauty of the land, and helping those truly in need.

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

Sword

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

Surviving in the wilds.

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

Other Information about your Character:

Despite his gruff demeanour, once you gain his trust, Hamdir is a firm friend and ally, often risking death over dishonour to his close friends.

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?

Warn the warriors to step aside. If they oblige, he will leave them in peace, if they do not, they will feel the sting of his blade! You shall be grateful of any supplies the Halfling could offer you, as they are famed in their farming abilities, however you shall neither force, nor press the little man to offer you such goods.

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 have little need for your trinkets sir, however, if it is supplies you are selling, I would be willing to trade some in return for my services as a hunter, guard, or maybe…” *Hamdir gives a sly wink* “more… shall we say erroneous activities”

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?:

Regard the hut with mistrust, you never know what may be lurking within its dark depths. Station yourself outside the hut for a few hours, if all appears well, set up camp there for a few nights, regaining lost provisions and resting for the long journey ahead. Hamdir does not take any of the equipment from the house, as they will only serve to slow him down, however, if he expects to be returning to a town any time soon, the gold sword will serve as a great bargaining tool for more effective, and hardy items.

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?

Wary of false friends, Hamdir keeps his distance, attempting to glean what little information he can from the settlers before he draws near. If they appear trustworthy men, I shall offer my skills as a huntsman and tracker to help provide them food in return for board and supplies. If not, I shall melt away into the forest as if I never existed.

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?:

Hamdir does not directly commune with the guardsmen, instead choosing to move ahead of the party. By the time the guardsmen arrive at the camp, they find it filled with corpses, and a note which reads

“These men shall trouble you no more, however the loot they stole is my reward”

and signed with nothing but an “H”

-Powergaming has more to it than explained by you.

-ORQs need to be a bit longer.
