[elsewb1939 25]

Out-Of-Character

Minecraft Account Name: elsewb1939

How old are you?: 13

Time-Zone/Country of Residence: Central time, USA.

Do you have a good grip on the English language/good grammar?: Yes, I have a firm grip on the english language. I may make mistakes at times, but usually I don't make that many.

Small 2-3 Sentence Description of yourself: As being 13, I have to go to school. I like to hang with friends a lot, I really love minecraft, xbox, playstation, ect. I get good grades in school. :)

How much time could you be on the server weekly?: Since it's the summer, probably about 2-3 hours a day. When school starts, maybe 1-2 hours.

What do you know about Roleplaying? Give a definition of what it means to you: Well I know roleplaying as being very fun.

I find it cool to be acting as what YOUR character would do. You have to think back, since this is medieval times, to words such as, "Aye!" and "lad." And my favorite, "BASTARD!" :)

What experience have you had in Roleplaying, if any?: I've had some in WoW, and I've played a few minecraft roleplaying servers, but none near as big as this one. And even sometimes, when im not on a roleplaying server, it's still fun to rp. :)

In your own Words, define what the act of Meta-Gaming is: It's like, any out of rp actions, can make the game different. Changing the way you play, pretty much. Like if you know some things you shouldn't know about the character (like out of game), you can use it against them in-game. Which I think is pretty mean..

In your own Words, define what the act of Power-Emoting is: Example, "Player1 steals player2's sword." That kind of thing. It's like, you don't give the other character a chance to emote! A better way to put would be, "Player1 draws his sword, ready to strike at player2." I would completely understand why power-emoting is disliked through roleplaying games.

What do you expect this server will be like?: I expect this server to be a lot of fun. I hope to bring out my creativity if I get accepted to this server. Well I already know this, but I expect the server to have a large community. And by looking how many people have registered on the forums... oh boy..

What other server(s) have you played on and why did you leave them?: I played on a large server called Gldesert. I was a well known player on the server. I haven't left it, but I don't play it much anymore, because it ruined the point of minecraft! Diamonds were common! That just ruins minecraft.

Have you read, understood, and agreed to the rules?: Yes, I really like the war rules. :)

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?: YouTube, minecraft, minecraft servers.net.

Have you previously made an Application? If so could you link us to your last Application?: Yeah, I have. Made it yesterday. Sorry, im not sure how to link it.

In-Character:

Character Name: Bruce.

What Race are you? (You may only be Human, Orc, Elf or Dwarf!) : Dwarf!

What Sub-Race are you? (note, you aren’t required to have a sub-race): None

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.): Bruce is a nice, gentle dwarf. But when angered, it is not pretty. He has a long black beard, greenish skin, and a armored helmet on his head. He is friendly to his other kind, but has little liking for humans and orcs. He does not tolerate breaking rules of the city, nor does he like people being mean to one and other. Bruce is a quite mature dwarf, with a high liking for mining.

Bruce was born in the kingdom of Kal'Alras. His parents, Heather and Terran, lived in a small home. They lived a nice quiet life. When Bruce was 14 years old, his parents let him set off on his first mining trip. Bruce and his buddys set off to the mountains, where they would stay up there mining for... maybe a few weeks. They thought everything was going to be fine. But they were wrong.

Their crew had 5 members. Bruce, Entire, Tarry, Pipe, and Quin. On the 4th day of the trip, they had dug down pretty far. Then, all of a sudden, the mine collapsed. It all happened so fast. It was just a loud crash and then darkness. All darkness. It took them a while to register what just happened. Bruce had packed a bag with little food. They had nothing but their picks and the clothes on their backs. Every night for 3 weeks, Bruce prayed to Urguan, and to his ancestors, who had help fight Ibless. Tarry and Pipe couldn't take it after 2 weeks.. they killed themselves. But Bruce, Quin, and Entire just kept hoping.. hoping something would help them.

On the 3rd week, pretty much all hope was lost. Yet, one morning, they all awoke to a noise.. a small sound. The sound of a pick! They started shouting, "HELP US!" "WE ARE DOWN HERE!" "HELP!" Then, through the ceiling, a man broke through. "Well there ya lads are!" "We've been looking for days!" And they were saved.

What are your Character's ambitions?: To be a big time miner, and maybe purchase a large mine.

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

What is one of your Character's most skilled talents? Mostly mining, good at fighting.

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 ): http://www.minecraftskins.com/newuploaded_skins/skin_20120629060743197788.png

Other Information about your Character: None

Open-Response-Questions

Each and every question must be answered with a minimum of a single full paragraph and entirely in RP.

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? Bruce walks over to the guards. "OI, leave the lad alone!" The guards draw their swords. "Now I don't want to fight...." Then quickly, Bruce draws his iron pick, and hits one of the guards in the head with the hilt of the pickaxe. The guard falls to the ground, unconscious. The next guard swings his sword at Bruce, and cuts him on his arm. This enrages Bruce, and he charges the guard. Bruce runs at him and plants his shoulder right in the guards chest, knocking him down. And with a quick swing of his fist, Bruce slams the guard in the face. "Now, think twice before you mess with a lad like this again, you have a nice day now."

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? "What have you got for sale?" asks Bruce.

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?: Bruce is very tempted to take the sword, but he moves on. When he is a few yards from the hut, he sees a man walk inside. Bruce thinks, thank god I didn't take that.

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? "Please, Im starving, could you please spare me some food?" asks Bruce. "Well sure lad, no problem." Bruce thanks them, and is on his way.

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?: Bruce could really use some money. And here is his chance. Also, he hates when towns people, like bandits, break the citys rules. So he goes up to the guards. "May I please help you with this?" The head guard smiles, "Yes, yes! Not many have come to help, we need you!" Bruce gears up, and him and the guards are on their way. When they reach the site where the bandits are, they ambush them. The bandits were not prepared, and they were all captured. After the ambush, the head guard pays Bruce. "Thank you for your assistants, lad."

Anything else you would like to say?: Thank you for reading, I've putting a lot of effort into this. I would really like a chance to play your guys' server.

A nice Application, but..

You need to add an actual screenshot, from & back of your skin.

Also some of your ORQ's need a little work.

Please fix these, and re-apply in 2 hours.
