Application for Arthane Lazul

[Arthane_Lazul (aaaa1188) 4]

Out-Of-Character:

-Minecraft Account Name: aaaa1188

-How old are you?: 15

-Time-Zone/Country of Residence: United States of America, EST[-5]

-Do you have a good grip on the English language/good grammar?: I would like to think so, yes.

-Small 2-3 Sentence Description of yourself: I am the quiet, awkward type when it comes to speaking around those whom I do not consider a friend. However, when surrounded by friends, I can have quite a good time. I usually do not start things, but tend to tag along after they have begun.

-How much time could you be on the server weekly?: 13-15 hours.

-How long have you played minecraft?: Ever since beta was released, so about 9 months.

-What do you know about Roleplaying? How long have you been doing it? What kind?: I know that role-playing is the act of becoming a character, and living out their lives as that person would in the environment that they inhabit. Although I have not had extensive experience with role-playing, I do occasionally write fictional stories, most of which are from the perspective of a certain character. I would imagine that the two experiences of writing and playing a character are not all that different, as in both cases you must truly become the person to succeed in what you are attempting to accomplish.

-What do you expect this server will be like?: What I would expect from this server is an interestingly new way to become immersed in a fantasy world only attainable through such means. An experience that truly allows me to become a character, live out their life, and affect the world around them.

-What other server(s) have you played on and why did you leave them?: My experience with minecraft began on a now discontinued server called kazcraft, in which I was a member of the nation of Valoria. Here I ran scouting and intelligence gathering missions to insure the survival of our group. Once kazcraft was ended, all the members were directed towards a server named topica-rp. Despite the name, there was absolutely no actual role-playing involved, and I quickly left the server. I then joined Realm of Conquest, an interesting light rp world with a good community. Unfortunately, that good community began to fade, and I grew tired of the complete ignoring of rp and the chat spam.

-Have you read, understood, and agreed to the rules? What about the lore?: Yes.

-Name the 4 races on this server.

Elves, Humans, Dwarves, and Orcs.

-How did you hear about us?:

I noticed an, "I am an orc" tag on the forums one day, thinking it would lead me to an interesting mod, I followed the link.

-Did you vote?: Yes.

-What was your favourite Law?: No mindless spamming.

-What was your least favourite Law?: You must have a forum account to continue playing on the server.

-What is your The Lord Of Craft forum account name? Arthane_Lazul

In-Character:

-Lordofthecraft.net/forum  forum account: Arthane_Lazul

-Biography: I was once a rich man, a man wise beyond his years… the prodigy of my people. I sought the sweet nectar of my world, attempted to find satisfaction in the pursuit of knowledge, honor, and balance. But that all has changed. What I remember of that fateful day is patchy, scattered at best, but it is enough. Enough to feel the pain of a life lost, the sorrow of a nation that was once home… become a place so foreign. The event which I am referring to is the loss of memory I endured at a young age, brought upon me by the savage blows of those who's faces, even now, I cannot remember. I know little of my life in that place, only that I was expected to be a great scholar, one my nation could hold high, but after that attack, and my loss of memory… I could barely speak. How could I return to my people, a mumbling idiot who could not even remember, or pronounce for that matter, my own name? So I ran, I ran to far away places, gradually regaining the knowledge I had gathered so many years ago. I'm not even close, but when I finish, and have taken up all the sweet nectar this world has to offer, I will return to my home. That is why I have come to this place, under the new name Arthane Lazul, to reclaim that knowledge I once held dear. And this time… I will defend it with my life.

-Character Age: 30

-Character Appearance: I am tall and thin, I am not of the strongest build, but can usually perform the actions required.

-Character Personality: I am always on the search for knowledge, and can be a bit desperate to learn all that I can. I do not trust other very easily, and it will take a great deal of action to truly befriend me, but once you do, you have me on your side, no matter the stakes.

-Your ambitions: I aim to collect knowledge from throughout the land, and I am willing to protect that knowledge, I will NOT lose it all again.

-Can your character read or write?: Yes, fairly well, but will occasionally draw a blank or make mistakes do to the lasting effects of my loss of memory.

-Can your character mine?: Barely, while I know many of the techniques used and can identify most ores on sight, I have trouble putting this knowledge to use.

-Are you a capable builder? Unlike mining, I am able to put to use the knowledge I have gathered regarding construction. I may build a bit slower than others, however, due to my lack of physical strength.

-Can you wield a sword?: I have trained with both the Bow and the Sword for many years after the attack on me. I am prepared to defend what knowledge I have gained at any cost, even my life.

-Enjoy Farming?: My interest in farming comes and goes, I am patient, but I learned all there was to learn from crops long ago, or so I thought, nature always has a way to keep the seeker busy…

-Does your character have any special skills?: Due to my never-ending quest for knowledge, I am familiar with most subjects, but always open to new ideas or techniques. I am in no way the man I used to be, so I am not an expert on all, but that is not to say I am not intelligent.

-A screenshot of your skin:

-Other Information:The above skin is a variation of an old skin I used to use, seeing as the link to the skin pack was not working when I last checked. I hope this one works just as well, however, if it is a problem, I am more than willing to change it.
