Kingsir's Application.

[Sir Kibble (KingSir) 12]

Out-Of-Character

Minecraft Account Name: KingSir

How old are you?: 15

Time-Zone/Country of Residence:GMT, Ireland

Do you have a good grip on the English language/good grammar?:I have been told that I possess a lush vocabulary. That’s a yes, then.

Small 2-3 Sentence Description of yourself: Prophetic, strange person. Likes cats. Dutch, friendly and cheerful, even in the worst of situations.

How much time could you be on the server weekly?: My non-existent weekly schedule makes it hard to plan these things... >_< But if I had to say... about 7-14 hours.

What do you know about Roleplaying? Give a definition of what it means to you:Fun! Roleplaying is a way to break free of normal life, and live a life only known in comic books and the most obscure of video-games. It is a way of enjoying games more, as you attach a story and various traits to your character.

What experience have you had in Roleplaying, if any?:Randomly go in and out of it in everyday life, I guess. Otherwise Skyrim, Fallout New Vegas, The Sims 3, Mass Effect 3, and any other game that lets one pick classes or traits.

In your own Words, define what the act of Meta-Gaming is:A way to prevent TRUE role-playing. It’s when you know something that your character SHOULDN’t, yet he seems to get the magical power of acting upon it anyways. Acceptable if stuck, but it tends to ruin the whole experience. i.e. Not taking a specific road because your off-character knows that there is little there but monsters.

In your own Words, define what the act of Power-Emoting is:Unfair. It’s when two players keep contradicting each other needlessly during an encounter, taking actions without letting the other player react back. Unacceptable, and frustrating for both involved. i.e. "He tackled the man to the ground." "The man gets up and runs away quickly." "He catches up to the man and blocks his path." "The man gets sprinkled with fairy dust and flies over him."

What do you expect this server will be like?:Role-playing while those around me are role-playing themselves? My hands will secrete glue to stick myself to the keyboard and/or mouse!

What other server(s) have you played on and why did you leave them?:I've played on Madgaming. I'm not planning on leaving it, but I'm in the mood for something different!

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

Do you promise to abide by said rules, and laws? This includes the Server, Forum, and Teamspeak set Rules:My word of honour!

How did you hear about us?:Friends on MadGaming we're talking about you.

Have you previously made an Application? If so could you link us to your last Application?:No. This is my first one.

In-Character:

Character Name:Mikhail Aleksandr Volkov.

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

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.):Growing up in the slums of Arethor was difficult for young Mikhail. Never knowing his father, he was forced to try and make a living for himself and his mother. With no skills, he quickly descended into a life of crime and violence. Deep in debt, and unable to make enough money to pay loan sharks, Mikhail made a dash for freedom at the age of twelve. Shamed, with a heart full of rage, he escaped into the wilds. He met a wandering traveller, who taught him everything about medicines and toxins. Mikhail listed as an apprentice to this traveller. After many happy years, his master was taken by bandits. Full of despair and righteous fury, Mikhail took up to a life of crime once more, hunting down those who took his mentor; and his childhood.

Standing tall at 1.73 metres, I'm is a skilled Herbalist/Toxicologist, gifted with a bow. However, I have the same skill in hand-to-hand combat as a dead squid. Growing up in the wilds does wonders for your skills at survival and traversing rough terrain. I value teamwork, especially if that team includes at least one meat-shield. Distrusting magic, I tend to dislike mages, viewing them as instable, and down right insane. My life so far has scared me mentally, and I often get visions of my old mentor, leading me to my next objective. All races are equal in my opinion, although, I must admit, I am prejudiced against bears. I prefer the company of animals as opposed to people, but I know the importance of teamwork.

What are your Character's ambitions?:To kill those who took my mentor and my childhood. Perhaps learn to make pottery and keep a cat. Or a dog... Pets for all! Perhaps own a house, or start a farm. If wealth is involved, I’m in. Perhaps find my sweet mother too...

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

What is one of your Character's most skilled talents?Archery, Herbalism/Toxicology, Being nice to animals.

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://imgur.com/izv6l

Other Information about your Character:Likes cats. Is a thief, sort of Robin Hood style. Only instead of giving money to the poor, I just don’t steal what little they have.

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?

If a small halfling is being harassed for money, then money he has, no? Perhaps he has other valuable trinkets... But Mikhail a fair thief. Mikhail knows that these guards saw the man first, so they get the right to steal from him. Of course, once all is said and done, there's nothing stopping him from stealing from the guards, is there? The halfling could be a big burly orc for all he cares; It matters little to Mikhail. For all he knows the guards have starving families to feed, so he can relate to them... But if they find anything, Mikhail will be sure to relieve them of the burden of carrying the valuables.

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?This seems like a good chance to stock up on equipment and food. This good man may know the location of some treasure, or a bandit camp. Mikahil always acts cheerful when talking to merchants, for they seem to have forgotten that there are daggers in men’s smiles. Arrows are always a welcome sight, so he tries to stock up on them as much as he can. He sells any melee weapons, except for axes, which can be used in both close-quarters and for chopping trees.

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?:The sword is worth something. Mikhail will rest in the hut. He uses the iron for arrowheads. If the hut is of strategic value to him, he might stay there for a while. He is sure the owner won’t mind, and if he does, well, they'll have a problem, won’t they? And if THEY have a problem, the OWNER has a problem. But, he’ll make sure to pay rent in his own little way, usually with knowledge, or an early warning in case of bandits or less friendly wildlife.

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?A man of the wilderness lost? Bah! But, then again, hunting may be sparse, and the sky may block the moon, dulling Mikhail's path. Food will be useful, and he could restock while he's here. But he must keep moving in search of revenge, and fresh hunting grounds. Mikhail will thank the men for their assistance. He has no quarrel with those who help him, and in time he may repay them if he ever finds them again. But Mikhail knows that to stay in one place too long in the wilderness is a death-trap, and he knows that only fools and bandits use roads. He warns them of the potential dangers, but hr knows that they won’t heed this warning.

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?:A reward, you say? This seems like something for Mikhail... He grabs his bow, grabs some herbs, smears his arrows in toxins. These bandits may be those who killed his mentor, so why miss the chance for revenge? If they are not, word spreads quickly. He'll make an example of these fools... If the reward is sparse, he will help myself to some more gold or ammunition. These men have the bandits’ swords anyways, so he's sure they won’t miss some supplies...

Anything else you would like to say?:I hope that direct speech was not needed in the above encounters! >_< Also, I often consider myself to be one of the “good guys”, if they really exist, so playing as a thief seems to be both a challenge and a nice contrast. Just a shame my old “Lord Steampunk” skin doesn’t fit the role of a thief... Maybe if I were to become an oil-baron... XD Hope to see you all soon! ^_^
