Sonystone's Application #5X2

[Sony 3]

Out-Of-Character

Minecraft Account Name:Sonystone

How old are you?:14

Time-Zone/Country of Residence:PST/Canada

Do you have a good grip on the English language/good grammar?: Yes I have a very good grip on English. I lived in Canada for my whole life and spoke English a lot at home and at school. My dad is also knows English so he was able to teach me some when I was young.

Small 2-3 Sentence Description of yourself: I’m friendly, talkative and really love to RP. I enjoy playing basketball and soccer. But I actually like anything that I start to get into.

How much time could you be on the server weekly?: In a school week I could probably spend around 24 hours on the server and if you’re talking about summer I can easily spend about 100 hours on the server since school is out!

What do you know about Roleplaying? Give a definition of what it means to you:Roleplaying is when you act as another character. Roleplaying to me is to escape reality and play what you want to be as.

What experience have you had in Roleplaying, if any?: I had been learning drama for quite a while now since secondary school. I enjoy it very much and very always Roleplay during the class. Some things we work on are Romeo and Juliet plays by Shakespeare.

In your own Words, define what the act of Meta-Gaming is:Meta-gaming is when you play your character using knowledge that is not already known in your character. If you see the person’s name in their character card and your character actually doesn’t know what his/her name is, this is Meta- Gaming. Your character does not know the name till he/she hears it. When you die you lose 30 mins of memory which means you can’t remember anything that happened 30 mins before your death. If you know the name of the person who killed you and you tried to kill them back, this is called Meta-gaming.

In your own Words, define what the act of Power-Gaming is:Power gaming is like when you character doesn’t have interest in Roleplaying. Their goal is to become super powerful and equip their character with the best loot. This affects other characters gameplay. If we were to say that I shot you with an arrow and your head falls off forever, this is Power-gaming since the other player would dislike that is they had no head for the rest of the game which affects the entire gameplay of that character which ruins it for him.

What do you expect this server will be like?: I expect the server to be full of fantasy and adventures you can have while Roleplaying. I recognize that many other servers have a lot of griefers but I have faith that this server is really protected to prevent griefers.

What other server(s) have you played on and why did you leave them?: I think I have played on hundreds of servers by now. I left them basically because there are just not that good. It is either there are problems with the admins or problems with the players which affect my gameplay.

Have you read, understood, and agreed to the rules?: Yes, I have read and understood the rules. I agree to the rules.

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

How did you hear about us?: I saw youtube videos of LOTC while I was browsing some minecraft videos. That is when I got interested.

Have you previously made an Application? If so could you link us to your last Application?: http://www.lordofthecraft.net/forum/index.php?/topic/58553-sonystones-application-3

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.): My father and mother died while I was young, they had been killed by bandits as they travelled back home. I usually talked to my dad because I admired the way he used the sword. As a guard he told me that a man needed to be brave and strong. He taught be how to use the sword when I was young since there were always wars and conflicts between nations of Asulon. Soon I got pretty good with the sword. At the age of 15 I entered events to see who the best teen fighter from 13-17 in Alras is. I signed up and won the competition, the prize was a silver necklace that I wore. Now since they passed away, this is the only thing I had that reminded me of them.

Five years had passed and I’d come from my grandma’s home in Alras. I am a young adult now at age 20, 6.2ft not chubby or skinny. I have black hair as dark as a raven's feather. My eyes are glowing chestnut brown. Now, with my grandma and sister and brother we’d play near a lake beside out home in Alras. We come into the city once in a while to purchase our supplies. One day while we were walking in the market there was a women being harassed by a group or drunken Dwarves. I stand brave and took out my sword to warn them. “If you keep harassing her I would not let you here.” ”You’re going to stop us in what army?” I picked up speed while running towards them. Then struggling to fight them my brother comes in and helps me out. We see a hang lamp above us and we cut the rope to release it. We successfully took the Dwarves down. I looked carefully at the women. She was a young lady actually; she had light brown hair, peach skin, and a bright yellow dress.

It was love at first sight I felt the warm soft feeling which I had with my mother and father before they passed away. Now her dad arrived with his guards. Her dad was the King! Now longing to find my true love, I have faith that we will see each other again. So days went on and I had come to the city again. She is nowhere to be seen. I overheard the folks said that she had been captured by bandits.

I walk back home asking to myself where could she be? I see the group of Dwarves on my way back home. Franticly I see the Princess all tied up in their cabin. I approached the window quietly without making a sound. As one of the drunken Dwarves came out of the Cabin, I knocked him out slowly by covering his mouth with my hand. It exhausted me a lot because he was really big. This alerted the other drunk Dwarves. I used a potion my grandma gave me for emergencies and threw it at the Dwarves. This made them stick on the ground for 1 min. I dashed inside the cabin and quickly grabbed on to the princess and ran as fast as I could down the road. She was very pretty when you were close to her. I untied her once we were safely away from the Dwarves. She thanked me and hugged me. That is when I realized that I saved her. She hugged me so tight that I wasn’t able to breathe. I walked her back to the castle and she gave me a kiss before she walked in.

What are your Character's ambitions?: I long to find my true love. So I could obtain the feeling I had once with my family.

What is your character’s favorite tool? (sword, pickaxe, shovel, etc): Ai, I always loved the sword. The blade the way my father used to hold it was inspiring. It brings me together, without it I don't know what I have to remember from him.

What is one of your Character's most skilled talents? Wielding the sword. Why have they made this weapon, it was for war and caused deaths. But for me I shall use it to serve for justice.

A screenshot of your skin (must be in proper format, if you do not know how to acquire one, copy and paste this link into your browser: ( http://tinyurl.com/Lotcscreenshot ):

Other Information about your Character: Romance is my middle name.

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? Hey! you there. Keep your hands off the young one or else. "Or what? What are you going to do? Oh I'd tell you what I’m going to do. I take out a gold coin and give it to them. Now leave him alone. "Alright, whatever you'd say." I take the small Halfling back to the Cloud Temple and leave the monks to take him home.

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? Ah, ello. I'd like a shiny broad sword over on the left. I find out the price is $1000minas. That is too expensive. He then offers me $500minas. I feel the blade of the sword and could easily tell it was fake because of my experience in swords. Ah, You hear that? My mother is calling me! And I stroll away. While walking away, I say to myself "but my mother is dead" and then start to snicker.

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?: Who'd must be this rich to leave all these items here. I'd must take these back to town and look for the rightful owner. Ah, wait. Here'd you see a note. “Will be back in 3 days to reclaim the things" Ok then, I stroll along the path again and do not take the items out of greed.

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? Ello! Can I purchase some fresh meat for my soul? “We’ll of course my sir." How much will this be? "50 Minas please, my sir." I hand him 60 Minas and told him to keep the change. Shortly after, I see some homeless children on the side of the road. I offer them the meat.

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?: "Aeh, I would like to take on the challenge." I walked along the path of which rumor state that they were there. He takes on the bandits which there only was 2. With his brother and finds out they were just doing it because their family were in deep need of money because they caught a serious illness. He could tell in their eyes that they were not lying. I come back to the town and say to myself, I would rather let some live then turn them in for greed.

Anything else you would like to say?:4th time. Ok I think this is the time I would get in.

You show a clear understanding of all the definitions.

Your biography was interesting to read, and you also managed to implement server lore.

[ A good job of removing the Power-Gaming! ]

Your ORQs are all well written, and contain solid RP.

Please wait for a GM to implement you. This could take some time.

I suggest you take a look at some of the in-game guides here.
