[onegarion 1]

Out-Of-Character

Minecraft Account Name: onegarion

How old are you?: 20

Time-Zone/Country of Residence: Eastern/ USA

Do you have a good grip on the English language/good grammar?: I believe I do.

Small 2-3 Sentence Description of yourself: I work long hours and love to take long hours and relax. I like RPG games and the medieval era.

How much time could you be on the server weekly?: A minimum of 14 hours.

What do you know about Roleplaying? Give a definition of what it means to you: Roleplaying is taking the persona of someone or something you are not. You get inside the head of a person who is not you and you "become" that person when you are in the game. Roleplaying gives an outlet to see how it can to be evil and not care about anything or live a life that I could only wonder about.

What experience have you had in Roleplaying, if any?: I have played many RPGs and have partaken in a number of real world roleplaying.

In your own Words, define what the act of Meta-Gaming is: Metagaming involves knowledge gained about the game through methods outside of the game. This is like you and a friend talking over skype. While in game your friends is being ambushed and you are no where near him to know of this, but come to his aid after he tells you of it through skype. It would also include emailing a friend about a location of an enemy base and letting them clear it and prepare while you are offline.

In your own Words, define what the act of Power-Emoting is: This involves a couple of scenarios. One is which a player ignores RPing and will simply kill a player without a notice. This gives no chance of RP. This takes the fun out of the server and gives no chance of the many options that occur. This is also symbolized when a bandit attacks and starts talking, but does not allow his victim to reply and strikes instantly killing him. The other is breaking the limitations that a normal wouldn't be able to do. This would be like building an entire castle in a day or fighting off an army by oneself. This is not realistic and makes your player to powerful and unreal. They should feel the limitations that come with building a castle and fighting an ongoing battle against many opponents.

What do you expect this server will be like?: an interactive server being able to join in others and make for a community that works together and is interactive. it will be one that I will enjoy coming back to.

What other server(s) have you played on and why did you leave them?:mc.minecraft.com, The community was very dead and spread out.

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.):

Onegarion is the son of a blacksmith. Their house was located in the wild within a days travel of Arethor. Onegarion grew up alongside his dad in the forge. He had been told of the creation story many a times. Being in the wild he had to learn to use his creations and not just forge them. He has learned to wield a blade. He has engaged in a few battles traveling between home and the city.

This has lead him to look for a life by the blade. This dream was put in motion on a trip to Mt. Ire'heart when August Flay attacked his caravan. Leading the group they fought off the small group of bandits with only one lose of life. With the lose of one of his friends he wants to gain the power to protect his family and friends from invaders.

After that he gave up the life of the blacksmith and only worked on armor to protect. He traveled to the capital of the Oren Empire and joined the guard to learn to fight properly. After a year in service he decided to leave so he could use his knowledge to improve his home.

When he returned home the village he once knew was gone. All of his family and friends, other than one who joined the guard and stayed with them. He took the trek to tell his friend of the news. After telling his friend of the dire news, he relayed to him the plan he wanted to implement. He wanted to make a town where the inhabitants are free of worry of attack. He now strives to defend the innocent.

What are your Character's ambitions?: To build a settlement that protects its own and form a group of warriors to protect those around them.

Height: 6'3''

Weight: 220 lbs

Age: 28

He is built from working the forge when he was younger, but his build comes mostly from learning to fight. He doesn't care to wear armor because of the added weight slows him down and reduces mobility when he is not in combat. He is rough and rugged.

With his desire to defend and train he has cast aside a big portion of his disdain of others if they will take the oath to join and live and die by the blade next to him. He only trusts his closest friends and will be cautious around any who have not proven themselves beyond without a doubt.

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

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

Crafting armor, but By far combat of the sword first and the bow second. (1-10 scale.) Armor 4, Sword 7, Bow 5.(Just another aid and everything else would be 0. No real relevance other than it being an aid to show he isn't OP or a master of anything).

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?

*Sprints towards the flank of the attackers and charges at the closest one* "Halt bandits!" *Grabbing the first man and locking his arm behind him with the point of the blade to the mans neck* "What is the problem here warriors. What has this halfling done to you?" *Finding the halfling is being robbed* "I have your companion so lay down your weapon and leave him be or face the steel of my blade. *Finding the halfling has stolen from the warriors* "You halfling return what you have taken and be thankful they haven't pierced you through. You warriors, what allegiances do you have? I would like to see if you are worthy to join my cause."

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?

*Glaring at the man* "Why are you bothering me merchant. Can i not just walk down the road without being heckled by your kind. If I wanted some of your wares I would have approached you." *Walks away with his hand on the hilt of his blade*

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?:

*Observes the craftsmanship of the sword* After examining the weapon and looking at the level of skill on the bars.*Patiently sits on a stump outside of the house and awaits the inhabitants* "Any such man with the skill to craft this golden sword is a man I want in my company, but a man who simply bought this weapon is no friend of mine. If he is a thief he must be talented and work for me and foolish and be taught a lesson."

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 am a warrior willing to provide my services to your camp for some food and a place to stay." After staying at the camp and having time to regain his energy. "This camp is now far from my encampment with my fellow companions. In exchange for pay we will provide you security in your trade and travel. I give you two days to decide. i will return at that time for your answer." *Leaves the camp and heads in a direction away from his camp and once out of sight he moves in the direction right at his camp.

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?:

*Stands in the middle of the group* "Hail! Lets us take down these bandits and make these lands safe again. I gladly lie my life on the line and all who are men will join me. Any man who stands and fights can call themselves my brother." *Storms into battle blade drawn leading a group men gathered to aid the town guard*

Anything else you would like to say?:

I was wondering if my guy would be good for a villain application. I would take the position of like a merc leader with a group that may rob and steal, but also protects. Does this even qualify? It would not be the OP Evil ruler, just a band of warriors that will do what they need to survive and it involves evil things.

Also like stated earlier the numbers above are aids and do not represent anything in game, just the level of competency of my character at a couple of things.
