Out-Of-Character:

Minecraft Account Name:ArcturusLight

Did you attend minecon and sign up at the LOTC booth?:No, I did not.

How old are you?:16

Time-Zone/Country of Residence:Eastern Standard Time, Vermont U.S.A

Do you have a good grip on the English language/good grammar?: Yes, I might occasionally make a mistake, but I would never use text speak, I hate it.

Small 2-3 Sentence Description of yourself: I'm just a normal guy really, I've always loved music and I've played the guitar for 5 years. My favorite genre is Grunge, particularly Nirvana and the rest of the 90's Seattle scene. I've always loved gaming, especially online with other people. Assassin's Creed and the Elder Scrolls series are among my favorites.

How much time could you be on the server weekly?: Typically 3-5 hours per day. Or 21-35 hours a week.

What do you know about Roleplaying? What is it?: Roleplaying is taking the role of a character to live out their lives and see the world like they would, as well as respond as they would. Also, just because somebody's roleplaying character dislikes you, doesn't mean that they dislike you, I've had friends who's roleplaying characters have disliked mine before who are really nice people in reality. I have not had as much Minecraft roleplaying experience as I would have liked, but I've been on one or two good RP servers.

In your own Words, describe what Metagaming and Powergaming are: Metagaming is using OOC information such as a secret location in character to further your characters goals unfairly. Powergaming is unfairly making your character stronger or in any other way better than other characters to an extreme and immersion ruining extent.

What do you expect this server will be like?: A very good server with a good community. I've watched multiple youtube videos by candle DunHagen and the official channel, so I have a good idea of the lore and the feel of the server.

What other server(s) have you played on and why did you leave them?: Kingdom of Aeonis is the last server I've played for an extended period of time, and I don't plan to leave, but chances are Lord of the Craft will take the vast majority of my time in Minecraft, as this server seems to have more to offer.

Have you read, understood, and agreed to the rules?: I have, I've never had any past bans or violations of rules and these rules are very similar, with a few differences such as the griefing system being altered to allow raids and the whole "No returningto your point of death for 30 minutes rule"

How did you hear about us?: Through a Youtube video, which led to me watching several more youtube videos, and it snowballed until I just HAD to sign up.

Have you voted for the Lord of the Craft on Minestatus? Which vote number were you?: Sorry, I've never heard of minestatus.com, but I'll check it out and vote if I see fit.

What is your The Lord Of Craft forum account name?: ArcturusLight/Nemantius

In-Character:

Character Name: Nemantius

What is your Race?: I would like to be an Elf, High Elf subrace please.

Biography(This should include the history of your character and his life as well as age, appearance and personality, etc.): Nemantius was born to two Mages from the small town of Serpent's Ridge, so growing up, knowledge and magic were the two greatest virtues in his home life. He gladly filled in the shoes of his parents, hoping one day to go to Laurelin and train with the Druids, meet the royalty and the commoners alike to make new friends, and train in magic until he can't learn any more (metaphorically speaking). He is welcoming to all, but he personally dislikes the Orcs quite a lot for their lack of literacy and knowledge, except for shamans whom he respects with high regard. He is a 7 feet tall, and 250 years old, with pale yellow skin and red war paint on his face. He often wears a blue mage robe, staying away from armor if he can avoid it. He lacks physical skill, and the only thing he can do is cut lumber, and not exceptionally either, he does however have a good grasp on architecture, and can plan buildings well.

Your characters ambitions: His biggest ambition is to become a prominent wizard of Malinor, and to make as many friends and books as he can.

A screenshot of your skin: Here (PlanetMinecraft link) is my current skin. it is based off of the Skyrim High Elves. I hope that is acceptable.

Other Information: None, I hope this was a good read, or at the least acceptable. Thank you for reading.

Have you posted this application on Minecraft Forum? If not, post it here:http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/832121-the-lord-of-the-craft-enter-the-world-of-asulon-o-f-f-i-c-i-a-l-l-y-t-h-e-n-o-1-r-p-s-e-r-v-e-r-100-unique-gameplay/!: No.

Definitions

In your own words, define what the act of roleplaying is:

Roleplaying is the act of playing out the role of a character, and experiencing their life through the given medium, in this case Minecraft. Popular forms of RP'ing include LARP, Video Game RP, and Tabletop RP.

In your own words, define what the act of meta-gaming is:

Metagaming is the act of using OOC information in character. For example, if I learned of everything about the Dark Brotherhood through reading forum pages, and then became an expert on the Dark Brotherhood in-game, it would be metagaming. Common knowledge is an obvious exception, or something practically obvious, such as the location of Arethor, or the fact that someone is a Dwarf without asking.

In your own words, define what the act of power-emoting is:

Power emoting, or powergaming, is a bit hard to pin down. Several definitions include forcing an act upon someone, ex.: "Acaele stabs Larry through the heart, killing him." Another definition includes overpowering your character, loading it with abilities and positive traits, and/or giving him new traits/abilities to help yourself when you need them.

In-Character Details

Character Name: Acaele Lazul

Character Race: High Elf

Character biography - Make this at least 2 paragraphs long, which must explain your character’s history, appearance, personality, age and any other details you deem necessary:

Acaele is the one-and-a-half-year-old child of Arthane Lazul (aaaa1188) and Ante'vuln Lazul (mixikitkat, KannAllyEnd). He has had little behind him so far in life besides mindless cooing and feeling around his little world. He has had very little contact with the outside world outside of Haelun'or, and thusly has no experience with other races.

He is going to be blonde, with green eyes, and a rather short stature for a high elf, taking after his mother as far as height. Everything else about his personality, appearance, and obviously life, will be determined through RP.

What are your characters ambitions?:

To be determined through RP, as he is but an infant.

Please provide an in-game screenshot of your skin here:

It is currently on my other computer as I am away from home, so if it truly must be provided, I will edit it in later on.

Is there anything else you would like to say about your character?

Nope, but I can say that roleplaying a child for the first time is promising to be quite the experience.

Open-Response-Questions

Each question here must be answered with a minimum of one full paragraph, and detail the scene you are given in the way it would happen in roleplay. These questions should be answered in first person. Be detailed, not short.

As a quick note, I'm going to have to turn these into a third person description rather than a dialogue,as Acaele is too young to talk.

Upon entering the Mighty Human City of Arethor, you come across a shop-keeper calling out to sell his wares to passers-by. The shopkeeper is not a Human, he is a poor dwarf looking to make a living in a new city. What is your response?

Acaele looks around, peering out of his mother's arms at the bustling city. Having never seen so many people of so many kinds before, he is rather confused and begins to cry in response. The hum-drum of the city allows little more than a small few to notice, though even they wish they hadn't. His mother rocks him softly, attempting to quiet him while softly cursing the impure for scaring her child.

You’re in the Cloud Sanctuary late at night, when a large Orc begins to threaten a nearby dwarf. The only present monk is fast asleep, and the situation looks like it will escalate into violence soon, what does your character do?

Acaele immediately begins to wail in tears and writhe around in his mother's arms as he sees the Orc. So drastically different and intimidating that Acaele is instantly in terror. His mother carefully attempts to calm him as she slips out of attention, and towards the docks to Malinor.

Whilst walking down the road to Malinor, you stumble upon an old man. His walking stick , looks weak and frail, and just as you are about to ask something, the stick breaks, and the man falls to the ground. As he falls down, a bag of Minas falls to the ground, and splits open. As you watch the multiple coins spill out, you peer down at the defenceless man. What does your character do?:

Acaele looks in interest at the old man, as his mother puts him down to help the poor soul out of pity. Ignoring the demeaning advice being spewed at him by his mother, he grabs at one of the coins, putting it in his mouth and proceeding to play with it in his hands. After the old man recuperates, he smiles at the child, allowing him the coin as a plaything before he is whisked away, further down the path by his mother.
