[Spike823 90]

Out-Of-Character

Minecraft Account Name: Spike823

How old are you?: 14

Time-Zone/Country of Residence: United Sates of America. :D

Do you have a good grip on the English language/good grammar?: Yes, grew up in it.

Small 2-3 Sentence Description of yourself: I love Minecarft and can get very addicted to it if I find a fun loving server. I like all type of servers, but feel R.P. are the best because you actually have task at hand. Trustworthy, loyal, and helpful minecraft player.

How much time could you be on the server weekly?: I would be on about 10-15 hours weekly, but most of the hours will be on weekends (during school) and about 12-17 hours weekly (during summer)

What do you know about Roleplaying? Give a definition of what it means to you: To me roleplaying means having a second life, where you act, feel, and control like you are irl. With roleplaying you stay as your character no matter what.

What experience have you had in Roleplaying, if any?: I've been on a few roleplaying servers before this, but none this organized and devoted to. Some had vampires and werewolves others had halflings, dwarves, and humans. They got very boring after awhile.

In your own Words, define what the act of Meta-Gaming is: Meta-gaming is using knowledge to help the player become more alive and to help the player be more of his/her role in the game. Knowledge outside of the game to help give the character in game.

In your own Words, define what the act of Power-Emoting is: Power-emoting is to inflict your actions into someone else...like killing someone. So power emoting is like declaring victory over someone you touched or not letting them react to your actions.

What do you expect this server will be like?: I feel this server will have a different mix of people who love, help, hate, kill, friend, or be enemies with you. I also expect the staff to be helpful but still be in character (friendly or hating because of race). This server seems like the real world where you can travel the world and go to different lands and different cities and towns. I expect to see a lot of cool architecture and cool things around Asulon.

What other server(s) have you played on and why did you leave them?:I have played on a magical rp server and it was never updated and soon died away. Also played on faction servers and soon after got boring. The ultimate reason why I left roleplaying is because many people didn't really roleplay and soon got boring and there was nothing to do.

Have you read, understood, and agreed to the rules?:Yes

Do you promise to abide by said rules, and laws? This includes the Server, Forum, and Teamspeak set Rules:Yes and I promise to check rules regularly to see if there"s updates (don't know if there would be some) and to refresh my memory

How did you hear about us?:I was on Youtube looking up minecraft servers and happened to see a video about this server. The guy interviewing your server made it seem a lot of fun to roleplay, live in towns, and just explore!

Have you previously made an Application? If so could you link us to your last Application?: Yes I have but I can only find my first one not my second...here's the first application http://www.lordofthecraft.net/forum/index.php?/topic/59991-applying-for-lotc/page__p__469523__fromsearch__1#entry469523

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.): Spike came from a small town called "TroubleStone". He lived with a poor family with his two brothers and sister, but his family taught him many tactics of surviving, hunting, shelter, and war. All these tactics were very hard to learn around TroubleStone because not many families taught them to their kids. Soon Spike was able to hunt fish, pigs, and cows! He knew how to build a proper shelter in minutes! No one showed others dwarfs' ability to be excellent miner, but Spike learned that on a mining trip one day bringing back ten diamond!But war was a bit complicated for Spike since he was so kind and generous. He went through the pain and misery of war and that's how he got his nickname.

It was a joke for others and they called him Spike the baby dwarf because he didn't have the guts to fight. Well that got Spike mad! So after a few days of being called the nickname Spike got a little over it and finally struck back. He stabbed the next person who teased him (by chance it was the creator of the nickname) and he was soon dead. Spike felt bad, but knew it would serve as a warning. He left TroubleStone and went to a small hut just outside of town. There in the hut was an old guy. Spike asked for directions and he later learned of a new place called Asulon and left on a boat that day in search of Asulon. Before he left the old guy looked up and said one last thing before Spike departed..."Goodbye Spike, The hard headed dwarf, and fulfill your destiny to be a young adventurer...there will be many more dwarfs in Asulon, find them and make your own city!"

What are your Character's ambitions?: To live in a small town with others and to stay out of trouble, but if needed will fight for what's right.

What is your character’s favorite tool? (sword, pickaxe, shovel, etc):A pickaxe because Spike loves to mine, and always keeps one side of the pickaxe clean and sharp just in case he needs to fight back.

What is one of your Character's most skilled talents? Mining up precious and rare treasures with ease.

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? Spike watches the two army guards punch and throw the little halfing around from a bush. He ponders on what to do next and decides to help the halfing in hope for friendship or money in the end. Spike smiles and runs towards the two guards. From afar the guards didn't look as big and Spike is now worried he may not be able to defeat them with their size. He throws his worn out cobble pick right into the head of a guard and he falls dead. The second guard comes charging at him screaming that Spike will pay for he has done! Spike puts out his leg and the fat guard trips over Spike's leg and falls down. Spike spares his life and goes and rescues the halfing. Soon Spike and the halfing are running back to where Spike lives in hopes to find the halfing a 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?Spike knows he can not resist treasures and goes to the dressed man. He asks the man if he has any tools and armor. The dressed man chuckles and says he wouldn't sell anything to a dirty, poor looking man like Spike. Spike is sad by this thought and leaves the stall sniffing himself to see if he really is dirty. Spike goes homes, washes up, and returns to the man. The man chuckles again and looks at Spike coin bag and says "Looks like you'll never have enough money! HAHAHA!". Spike looks at the man and says one thing "You'll pay for that". The man runs off with a worried look and Spike returns to his home wondering if the man will have nightmares...Spike half smiles and says "I hope so".

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?: Spike looks at the small hut and wonders if it would be a trap. He senses danger and sees that there is an elf trying to hide behind the shack. Spike runs off thinking the elf had seems him. Without having anything on him Spike wanders off in the opposite direction of the hut. Hoping to never return to the hut without proper precautions.

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?Spike greets the campers and ask for some food. He puts on a good smile and acts as a happy, friendly man. The campers help Spike to three servings of cooked pork chop..by then Spike is full. It is getting nightfall and the campers ask Spike if he would like to stay in a tent. Spike takes the offers and when dawn comes will leave the campsite unnoticed and would leave a piece of gold for each camper to say thanks.

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?: As the news came Spike was remodeling his house. He was just hearing the news boy shout out "War Soon! People Now!". Spike jumps down into his escape exit off the mountain into a pool of water. He then runs to the boy and ask whats hes screaming about. Spike takes the offer and before you know it spike as full leather armor on and an iron helmet. With his diamond pickaxe Spike sets off to go help win the war. Spike sees danger before you know it's coming and swings his pickaxe at the right moment, and with a hard clunk the orc falls down dead, bleeding in the stomach. Spike helps win the war with only loosing his leather boots. The head chief comes limping to Spike, since he lost his leg in battle, "You were great out there and I truly think YOU were the main reason we won this war, thanks again for joining the battle and here's 100 Minas, spend it wisely and many hopes for greatness in your future!" Spike leaving that battle stage smiling and when he finally got out of sight of the chief he lets out a tear and says "Thank You".

Anything else you would like to say?: I really hope to be accepted in this server and since this is my 3rd time and summer vacation is only two and a half months long I really want to be able to play before I start school again.
