[Robert082885 1]

Out-Of-Character

Minecraft Account Name:Bobert082885

How old are you?:26 (that's not too old is it?)

Time-Zone/Country of Residence:EST Canada

Do you have a good grip on the English language/good grammar?:That I do, thanks for asking.

Small 2-3 Sentence Description of yourself:My name is Robert and I have a wild imagination. I'm the type of guy you would hang out with and just listen to him make up silly songs all day. I have two children and another on the way... the two I have are just as, if not more, silly than I am. I love Minecraft for it's creativity and the way it allows me to just do whatever. But, I get lonely in the world of Minecraft sometimes and would love a chance to immerse myself in a world that I can share with others.

How much time could you be on the server weekly?:20-30

What do you know about Roleplaying? Give a definition of what it means to you:Role playing? Isn't it exactly what it sounds like? I'm playing a role, I am no longer me. I am whatever I say I am (within the worlds rules) I am a great hunter and leather worker. I take pride in my humble life and work hard for what little I have. I have a wife who loves to mine, she has done it her whole life. She was taught it at a young age as a slave. We met shortly after she made a daring escape from a slave camp. She was just lucky enough to run into me. LOL.

What experience have you had in Role playing, if any?:Uh... I used to do drama class? JK. I love role playing and have played on many servers... unfortunately I find that too many Minecraft servers are run by power tripping fools.

In your own Words, define what the act of Meta-Gaming is: Meta gaming is when a player uses out of game experience to help make an in-game decision.

In your own Words, define what the act of Power-Emoting is: Power-Emoting is unfair role play in my opinion. Some moron comes over and suddenly decides that he is the most epic zombie killer ever and anyone who challenges him swiftly gets shot in the head without a chance to react. Player 1: HAHA! I shot you in the face, cuz you weren't looking. Player 2: How do you know!? All you said was POW! Your dead, I win.

In your own Words, define what Out of Character (OOC) is: Can anyone tell me how to set my skills? C'mon guys how do I level up? Where is the menu button? Wow! A quest!? Wait I did this one already!

In your own Words, define what In Character (IC) is: I am Dante, the famous knight gone rogue. I have traveled far from the City of Sand to find the fabled Red Opal. I have searched for the Red Opal for years... ever since Eliza went missing. It's the only thing that will bring her back to me!

What do you expect this server will be like?:Fun! (Too short an answer?)

What other server(s) have you played on and why did you leave them?: Atherus' Acsended... evil server that it is. MMOs I have always played on RPPVP. WoW, Rift, DDO. Love Role Play. Not much Minecraft RP tho...

Have you read, understood, and agreed to the rules?: I liked that part! Yes I did.

Do you promise to abide by said rules, and laws? This includes the Server, Forum, and Teamspeak set Rules:I will be obedient.

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.): Edward Vines grew up with his father, who was a great hunter. Edward's mother had died giving birth to Edward and so he had never knew her. Edward and his father lived off of the land, Edward learned all his father could teach. How to cook, how to kill, to to prepare his meat and how to work with leather.

Edward was happy with his life and loved his father dearly. But when Edward turned 16 years old his life would turn upside down. Edward's father suddenly became very ill from a bad infection he had got while out hunting. Edward was no doctor and all he could do was rush off to the nearest town to get help for his father. This would take Edward three days on foot. Edward walked for three days, the whole time worried sick about his father. Edward arrived in a small village and began pleading for a shaman, doctor and any other type of healer he could think of. Within a short time an elderly man approached Edward and asked "Who is hurt young man?" Edward quickly told the old man what happened and soon they were headed back towards Edward's home in the forest.

But when they arrived, it was too late. Edward simply left his old life behind that day. He changed and became cold, he wandered aimlessly, searching for something to fill the void that had been torn into his soul. One day while scouting a beautiful valley for something to eat Edward heard a young woman screaming. Edward stood up as a young woman came rushing down a hill and through the bush towards him. Three men were chasing her. Edward, without even blinking, pulled his bow from his back and took an arrow from his quiver, drew the string and shot. "Aack!" one of the men screamed as Edward's arrow pierced his chest. With one of the men dead, the other two ran off back into the distance and over the hill from where they came. "Wait!" yelled Edward to the young woman "please wait!" She stopped and looked back, she had been running so fast she didn't even see Edward stand up as she ran by him. "They are gone, you are safe now." exclaimed Edward. She looked at him in fear, she had been a slave her whole life. She was abused and hated, she had never had a man treat her with respect... until she met Edward. Nor did he know the love of a woman until he met her. Now Edward, a middle aged man of 32 spends his days hunting and fishing, caring for the woman he loves.

What are your Character's ambitions?:Edward wants to be happy and to live. He is humble and believes that you should never take more than you need. He understands nature and because of this he wants to protect it.

What is your character’s favorite tool? The Bow is Edward's tool of choice. He is a great shot. (sword, pickaxe, shovel, etc):

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

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? Edward doesn't talk to people much and is known for doing one thing and one thing alone in a situation like this. Edward pulls out his bow and engages the warriors from a distance with deadly accuracy.

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?Edward is not interested in fashion, Edward continues on. He didn't come here to buy a coat.

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?: Edward takes the iron as he may have use for it. He leaves the sword though, Edward prefers not to use one anyways. And if he was going to... it would be his father's.

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 would follow their actions and show respect, once I had been invited in I may ask about getting something to eat.

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?:Edward offers to help, but refuses to accept the reward. He asks instead for a few arrows and a hearty meal in return for his assistance.

Anything else you would like to say?: This was kind of fun actually... thanks for your time!
