Minecraft Account Name:Torrazzo

How old are you?:19

Time-Zone/Country of Residence:GMT+1 / Italy

Do you have a good grip on the English language/good grammar?:Obviously, being an Italian guy, English isn't my first language, however my "grip" is quite good i think.

Small 2-3 Sentence Description of yourself:My name is Lorenzo Guzzeloni and i'm a young farmer.

I have four farms: Two in Italy, one in Ireland and another one in South Africa.

I love listening to alternative rock music "made in Italy" like "Ministri","Subsonica" or "Afterhours".

Sports cover a real important "role" in my existence, in fact i've been playing soccer since I was a child.

Gaming is one of the most important thing in my life and Minecraft is my favourite game.

How much time could you be on the server weekly?:In summer i cant spend all my time on the server because my job takes me all the "day time"so i can spend approximately 3/4 hours per day.

In winter just the opposite. Work disappears and i can take all the "free time" that i want.

What do you know about Roleplaying? Give a definition of what it means to you:Roleplaying is an imaginative way of acting out what a character would do at a certain time and situation but "RP" is also become someone that you can't be in real life and live a "new reality" in a "new wolrd"."RP" is the first peculiarity that i search in a minecraft server and i truly love to bring my story to the other players.I believe that almost all the videogames are based on character roles and it’s basically what I love doing.

What experience have you had in Roleplaying, if any?:I played for one year in the only italian "RP server" called "The lost lands", now "Forgotten World".

In your own Words, define what the act of Meta-Gaming is:Metagaming is when one person playing a character uses knowledge that the character doesn't have, which means that something from the outside affects the inside game’s mechanics. For example, in most of the roleplaying videogames, forums make a great part, as concerns wars indeed, I could read people arguing about places and fights in general, that would help me understanding where to go.

In your own Words, define what the act of Power-Gaming is:Power-Gaming is when a player manipulates game mechanics in a way that makes him more productive and efficient.

In roleplaying, giving yourself an unfair advantage by basically forcing an outcome, either in conflict with another player or in the world alone, in which your character wins the outcome unrealistically or unfairly.

What do you expect this server will be like?:Simply awesome.

This server has what i'm looking for in a minecraft server.I expect only great things from this virtual reality.

What other server(s) have you played on and why did you leave them?:I played for one year in the only "RP server" in Italy called "The lost lands", now "Forgotten World" and i stopped playing there because the "Roleplay component" was totally forgotten.

Character Name:Torrazzo Magnus.

What Race are you?:Human.

What Sub-Race are you? (note, you aren’t required to have a sub-race):Southeron

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.):Torrazzo Magnus was born on the 29th of September, in the Kingdom of Hanseti. He was the first born son of Edward Magnus, a simple peasant who unfortunately lost his wife, Mary, who died shortly after Torrazzo’s birth.

Since he was worried for his village’s fate, he taught his son how to fight and to rule the village itself, in case something happens.

When Torrazzo was 16, Edward died, due to a siege laid to the village from a few bandits - whom even destroyed it - while protecting the only road which could allow the women and the children to flee. Torrazzo managed to escape aswell, and while suffering serious injuries, he took a few brave fighters with him and sought for unclaimed lands, to build a new village for his folks.After a long wandering, Torrazzo met the massive stone statue of a seated man with a sceptre that guards the front entrance to the cracked platue of the Dresden, the capitol city.

Without wasting time, Torrazzo and his brave soldiers explored Dresden in search of supplies for their journey. Being Hanseti's primary directive the military might, Torrazzo found a lot of swords and armours merchants outside Dresden walls, very useful for arming his troops and resume his journey well-equipped.

Now Torrazzo Magnus is 20 years old, 1.84 meters tall, green eyed and black haired and the hard workouts imparted by his father assured him a sculpted body.

He terribly hates his back because of that huge scar obtained during the siege, that inexplicably doesn't stop bleeding.

Incredibly cocky, egocentric and megalomaniac, Torrazzo also has a unique charisma that encourages his people to thrive.

What is your Character's ambitions?:To build the most amazing and glorious kingdom in Asulon and become one of the most powerful kings.

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?I try to start a conversation to understand what's happening:

T:”Hey you folks, stop it!

W: ”You’d better keep silent, human.”

*Draws the sword out*

T:”What I told you was not a suggestion, leave him alone, immediately!”

W: ”You do not understand then, ye be warned, get ready to die.”

T: ”Couldn’t ask for more.”

After leading them astray, he rushes to the halfling.

T:”Is everything ok?”

H:”Yes, thank you, but I’m injured and I can’t walk back home, would you land me a help?”

T:”There is no problem little halfling! But let’s hurry, night is coming.”

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?T:”Greetings”

M:”A wayfarer uh... take a look, something might interest you.”

T:”Apples! I’m crazy for those! I can pay you quite well.”.

M:”Thank you. Hope to crisscross your pocket again, young wayfarer.”

T:”Farewell!”

Torrazzo keeps being aware of any possible ambush and goes ahead.

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?:E:” Remember, dear son of mine: stealing is for viles and cowards. A virtuous man never steals, creates and then, donates.”

By reminding those memories, Torrazzo covered the chest with a few brenches and the followed his path.

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?Torrazzo:”Hey, you ! Please, give me some food. The journey was dangerous and the monsters even laid me astray”.

Nomad:”Don’t worry, rest and recover your strenght. Meanwhile, I’ll cook a mushroom soup.”

Torrazzo:”I thank you, If I didn’t meet any of you, I’d be victim of night now.”

Nomad:”We’ve set a hut for you, over here, you can stay until the sun shines if thy wish.”

Torrazzo:”You’re very kind, it’s wonderful. I’ll always be in debt with you for this.”

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?:Captain:”Quickly draw your weapons, we’ve got to get ready for the fight!”

Guard:”Sir, we’re not as much as they are, we cannot win!”

Torrazzo:”Captain, my clan and me will give you a hand, faith and arms!”

After a very long fight, the bandits are bowing out.

Captain:”Your help was fundamental, Sir; here’s your reward!”

Torrazzo:”I don’t want to accept it, Captain. The reward itself was seeing those bandits running away from here.”

Captain:”Aim high and keep your clan’s name above all legions, thank you”.
