[Dntbckdwn 2]

Out-Of-Character

Minecraft Account Name: Dntbckdwn

How old are you?: 15

Time-Zone/Country of Residence:Central Timezone US

Do you have a good grip on the English language/good grammar?: Yes, I do. I have a college reading level and can speak English, thoroughly.

Small 2-3 Sentence Description of yourself: I am 15 years old, love to play video games, and of course computer games such as

mine craft, runescape, world of Warcraft, and any other MMORPG or Role-playing games, i can get my hands on. I will be 16 on July 29th, and hopefully by then, be embracing the server's quality of game play. I find myself, very mature, and handle situations whether they are bad or good, thoroughly, and calm.

How much time could you be on the server weekly?: 6+ Hours a day, Minimum 48 hours a week. If i am on vacation, but hope to be spending alot of time

on this server.

What do you know about Role playing? Give a definition of what it means to you: Role playing, to me i probably would take seriously, seeing

you have to manage some things, like your friends or clans, your nation, and defend who you really are, role playing games are the best category i could play because it

gives you time to really think about the game, and it takes time, and makes the game really interesting to be involved in. And basically if i was an Elven

I would act as an Elven in-game and not out of Character.

What experience have you had in Role playing, if any?: Depends on the game, I have not played much role playing in Minecraft, but hopefully

i can get better with it while i play here and get used to the surroundings and make the game more enjoyable for myself.

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

Meta-Gaming, would act as if, you were to Walk up to someone in a random set of armor, or in a random place,

and notifying them, using their name for instance, Rouge Velan you walk up to and introduce yourself, you basically used

OOC information to verify who that is, but in IC you wouldn't have the slightest clue who they were, without using

OOC information

Or

taking OOC information and transferring it

to IC information, and then applying it back into OOC, for example

*Faction A Knight Is notified that they will be attacking Faction B.

*Faction A Knight stumbles into Faction B Knight

Faction A Knight: ((We will be attacking your faction))

Faction B Knight: ((really? thanks.))

*Faction B Knight: Runs back and informs everyone Faction A will be attacking them soon.

*Faction B Knight Everyone! We will be under attack from Faction A, a knight told me this information.

Thus turning IC information, informing Knight B with OOC Information, then turning it back into IC information, to gain an Advantage.

and using OOC information IC. Not aloud on the Rules.

A Little confusing but this is what i have understood.

In your own Words, define what the act of Power-Gaming is: Power-Gaming is when One person makes the game unfair to another player, leaving them no chance to resist, or attack back, by forcing them into something making yourself already win without them getting a chance to RP, you basically power-gamed just so yourself had an overpowering advantage that made the game unstable, and unfair, not leaving the other person any room to talk at all, and i do realize this is against the Law.

Or

When a player overpowers another, leaving them no room to role-play back, like forcing yourself to win.

*Knight A asks Knight B*

((Knight A: How about coming to dinner with us? and getting to know each other more?))

*Knight A secretly knowing he is going to kill his opponent with food poisoning.

((Knight B: Sorry, I have plans but hopefully next time maybe?))

*Knight B starts to walk off

*Knight A grabs a-hold of Knight B putting rope around his hands, and bringing him back to the castle where they are supposed to eat

Knight A, Took advantage of Knight B leaving Knight B no way to counter-act the arrest, or resist against it, not making the game fair, and forcing himself to win.

What do you expect this server will be like?: The server to me, feels like it can be enjoyable to play on, give me more of a realistic

experience seeing this will be the server that i have ever played on with alot of players, i feel as if i can become comfortable with the game in helping out

or just being there to help others. And you always have to make decisions on the spot, to keep the game rolling.

What other server(s) have you played on and why did you leave them?: I have not really played any major server needing white-listing, i have

played miscellaneous servers that were not white-listed, but of course as many good things sometimes come to an end, i was forced to leave alot of servers due to no player count and of course losing everytime i have put into the game itself, so i decided to come here, hoping what i do can matter and i can actually keep the progression flowing and make something out of myself, and make others proud.

Have you read, understood, and agreed to the rules?: Yes, i have read and understood all the rules, and i will make sure i follow them

under any circumstance, and if i ever do break a rule i will be greatly ashamed. And you can expect a written apology.

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

How did you hear about us?: Ace Soul-blade (Brother) , he is a former player here, and looks like he is doing a really good job.

He is a tan Elven, with his bow on his back, and always having a dagger of some sort to his side, if he ever needs it in the moment. His ears are sharp, and pointed at the top, making him hear really well, and see really far and in bright areas, He wears his hood almost all the time to hide his true identity, He is noble and loyal to the ones he loves and always carry's out the order if he is given one, He is really skilled with his bow, where he trains with it almost daily, in order to keep his marksman skills in order.

He is found protective over his Family and Friends, caring for them as his father taught him too, and always keeps an eye on the surrounding nations. He never broke any lore or law that was taught to him from his father himself, but as a young-in he always was the little trouble maker but his father was sure to punish him in the correct manner, and then he never had broken one again after learning from his faults. He respects every Elven and looks up to those who have higher power than him wanting to become a legend one day, And lead on his race, He loves to be around anyone that he can have a nice conversation with, and especially people that are stronger than him, and usually asks them to duel, so he could learn some new talents or tips on how to successfully defeat your opponent.

Open-Response-Questions

Whilst traveling from the Cloud Temple you see a small half-ling, being harassed by two armed warriors. They appear to be trying to steal money from him, how does your character respond?: *Jump in front of the half-ling* Ask who the Knight's are and ask what they are doing here, if they offered to tell me what was going on, i would ask when this occurred, and why? If they are too good for small talk, i would ask the half-ling what he has done, or if he has any clue on why they are bothering him, If he told me i would try to confront the guards to see if this was true, if they responded with Yes, and it was something that needed to pay the price, i would talk to him, and try to turn himself in, if it's nothing of offense i would try defending him, and if they wanted his life, I would reveal my sword, protecting him if it wasn't anything bad that someone needed to die over. There is many ways my character could approach the problem, but it all really depends on the back story of this situation.

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 would ask, who he was, If he was not a familiar name, i would ask why he was there, or what he had to offer, if he had nothing that i really needed, i would tell him to have a good day and move on with the day, and hopefully he isn't out to get me after i turn my back.

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 would look around more, and call out

if anyone was there, I would wonder why the chest was abandoned but i would look around for scraps or clues on if someone has been taken or killed, if so i would grab the items, and take them for collecting, seeing as it is abandoned, but if nothing seems out of place or someone could possibly be away, I would leave the items and then return on a later note to see if anyone has returned, or if anything was moved, then i would act upon the situation, If nothing was removed i would take what was there and leave a note of some sort. Leaving my name and hopefully they can get back to me, or find me to claim their items back and apologize in return.

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?: I would ask who are they, and what brought them out here, ask for names or find anyone with a familiar face that i possibly have seen before, i would ask if anyone could help me out by sparing me a few rations of food, or water if they had any to spare, if not, I would keep walking and thank them for their time. Or i could stay there and try to make friendly communication and work myself into getting some food, to help me and keep me alive for the time being. Then i would thank them with a few Mina's if i had any on me and then taking off to wherever i was headed in the first place.

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?:

Valandil, would offer his aid, but for no reward. He would ask how many there are and if there was a great location for him to use his archery for a strength in battle, holding his bow in his right hand, the guard replies

on the castle wall, so valandil responds and quickly walks to the top, and grabs his bow and arrows, putting 3 arrows onto his bow, and holding them all back, waiting for the moment to come, The sun comes up, and flashes right into the guards eyes, blinding them, and through Valandil's vision, he see's the bandits charging at us, "Show no MERCY! They are coming, get ready!", as the guards quickly steady their view, Valandil lets the three arrows go, and they pounce into the chests of the bandits, leaving two down, but the third one deflecting off of the bandits shield, Valandil, springs down the castle wall, making way towards the ground, steady's an arrow, running towards the bandit and lighting his arrow on fire, with an oncoming torch, he shoots the arrow into the bandits wooden shield as it set's fire, and then plunges the dagger into the bandits chest, After defeating the fleet that was coming towards him, Valandil offered aid to the wounded seeing if there was anything

that he could to help out, He walked around aiding food and water, and then talking to the ones that were scared and didn't want to die, Valandil, sat next to them, talking to them, while they slowly died, Valandil, closed their eyes, then reported a dead body, to the guards who took the dead body away. Valandil, was offered a reward, but turned it down, and said that no reward was needed, the Guard thanked him, Valandil walked off into the sunset to find more people to aid.

Anything else you would like to say?: This World has very much potential, and i am finding myself amazed at all the features, and hopefully i can become part of the community, and hop right into the game play. Thanks for Reading.
