How much time could you be on the server weekly?: Approx 7-8 hours a week.

What do you know about Roleplaying? Give a definition of what it means to you: Roleplaying is when you leave reality behind and assume the role of any character you wish (within the confines of the game).

What experience have you had in Roleplaying, if any?: ?: I have been on many Roleplay servers on Minecraft and played far too much World of Warcraft!

In your own Words, define what the act of Meta-Gaming is: : Meta-Gaming is when you use information acquired when out of character, in character. For example:

Player A: [to player B] Hey, Sam, ur skype name is sammy678 Right? And Player A: OMG! Did u no that easter is really early this year, I mean OMG!

In your own Words, define what the act of Power-Emoting is: Power-emoting is when one player destroys the freedom that another player has assumed when playing on a particular server. For example, if Player A stabs Player B and steals their Gold that's power-emoting; Player A has reduced Player B's opportunity to play uninterrupted. This is highly frowned upon in role-playing games as it limits the victim’s freedom

In your own Words, define what Out of Character (OOC) is: OOC means Out-of-Character. For example: One minute you might be your fictional character then the next be yourself and talking about reality. When you talk about yourself [in reality] you are OOC

In your own Words, define what In Character (IC) is: IC is the opposite of OOC, which means that when someone is IC they're pretending to be their fictianol character and they will say or do nothing about reality.

What do you expect this server will be like?: I expect this server to be better than all the other Roleplaying servers.

What other server(s) have you played on and why did you leave them?: MassiveCraft, HeroCraft, SolarRealms and many others whose names I can't remember. I left them because after a while they became limited and Role-playing was not a key factor

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.

He was born into a family who were not too poor or too rich, but in the middle. His father ran his own shop making bows while his mother ran a simple laundry business. In his youth he worked for his mother doing basic tasks but then turned towards his father’s career. He found this much more rewarding. He then, one day, was using a bow for his first time. He ventured deep into a forest. After half an hour of venturing mindlessly he spied a small camp of orcs. He tried to be quiet but failed as he tripped in a rabbit hole. He felt the adrenaline rush through his body, but for no use. The Orcs would get him whithout a doubt.

The Orcs ran towards him, even though they were slow Kyre was scared frozen. Four Orcs got his limbs and thrust him into a small iron cage which was being pulled by a small, mistreated horse. He spat in the Orc’s faces, this made them furious, they clubbed him until he passed out. The next thing he knew he was in Arethor. There were no Orcs in sight, for they had dropped him here because an elf was of no use. For the first time in Kyre’s life he saw humans. The city was bustling with merchants, running children and guards. He fought through the crowds until he got to the port. He then stowed away on a large boat named: ‘HIMS Syrio’s Beard’ which was headed for Normandor. After days of travel with little food and water, he arrived at his home city. He ran back to his small cottage just outside the Grand Tree. When he arrived he was filled up with joy.

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? ((Kyre walks down the large steps and to his horror, he sees a halfling being mistreated)) Kyre, after being abducted by Orcs, never wants to have anything to do with agresive beings. But as he tries to avoid the armed warriors they catch his eye. He is rigid with fear, yet he still has the courage to raise his bow. He looks at the bigger warrior and finds there is a small patch of unprotected skin, his shin. Kyre quickly shoots him, as he does so he feels the blood rushing through his body and runs for his life! Hoping he'll never see them again, he curses to them.

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? As he sees the well dressed man he lowers his head and pretends not to see him. 'Young man, can'ya 'ear me or not? Do you want some of my goods, I've got everything from a fine sword to the softest silk, there must be something I can interest you with.' Kyre then mutters 'No thanks, I-I don't want anything, thank you for offering. He then runs round a corner so the merchant cannot see and keeps on wandering in Alras.

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?: After traveling in the wild for days with only scraps of food, Kyre finds a thatch hut, to see if there's anyone in the hut to give him food, he goes in cautiously and sees no one in the hut but a small pot fire in the center and a large chest. Kyre looks in it, after seeing what's in it, he would not like to upset anyone, so leaves it there, and continues wandering mindlessly through the forest to get some food for his family.

Hungry and lost in the wilderness, you stumble across a small trading camp nestled among the forest, they greet you in the common tongue, how do you respond? As Kyre fights his painful hunger, he finds a bustling trading camp. He looks in his pouch and finds he has a few minas to spare. He runs to one of them and asks where food is sold. The tall man points towards a blue striped stall. Kyre drags himself top the stall and trades 2 Minas for a small cooked chicken. He eats it with such haste he feels sick, but he thinks to himself:' At least I won't die'. He then tries to find his way back to Normandor.

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?: After Kyre pays the inn keeper his rent, Kyre sees a large crowd buzzing round four or five guards. He joins the crowd and pushes his way to the front. They say there is a party of bandits on the road outside. The guards then ask for agile young men to step forth. Kyre steps back as not to get chosen. One of the knights points him out, but as this happens Kyre runs out of the scene as not to be picked, since his self esteem is so low.

Anything else you would like to say?: Thanks to the AT for their constructive criticism to help me get this far.
