[b]Out-Of-Character Information[/b]
Please fill out the following questions as accurately as possible, and ensure the essential details are accurate.

Main Account Name: Thornrose
Alternate Account Name: JarsofPickles
How old are you?: 20
Time-Zone: GMT

Yes.

What previous experience have you had in role-playing?:

 

I have role-played in paragraph format outside of minecraft for around eight years. I am also an aspiring author and I currently have a story-in-the-making posted at wattpad if you would like to see the quality of my writing. 

How did you hear about the the Lord of the Craft?:

 

I've seen it around the forums on Minecraftforum.net, and I've had friends playing for a while.

 

Link any applications that you have previously made for the server:

 

None, sorry.

Have you posted this application on the Minecraft Forum? If not, then please do so (link above):

 

Yes. 

Have you read the Elven lore, and shall you ensure you make use of it and follow it in your biography?:

 

Yes, but I can't guarantee that it will be mentioned too often. I find it hard to reference other writings in biographies.
 

Definitions

In your own words define the following terms. Do not take any definitions from elsewhere!:

Role-playing:

 

Roleplaying is the act of writing cooperatively with other users to form a fictional world and story, and interact with it and other characters. 

Meta-gaming:

 

Metagaming is the act of using information that your character does not know or cannot know in roleplay; ie, seeing someone say "She's secretly pregnant" in OOC and then telling others IC that this person you do not know IC is pregnant.

Power-emoting:

 

Powergaming or power-emoting as you call it is the act of making your character do something or making it seem as though they are all powerful. For instance, "Mary jumps into the fight and instantly overpowers all the people in it, dusts them off, and asks them what's going on" or "Mary blocks the way out and smirks, for there are absolutely no other ways out and now John is trapped" or "Mary pins him against the wall". Neither of those are allowed because they do not give other characters a chance or a way to respond and/or stop them and/or roleplay in kind. Another kind of powergaming is "Mary jumps twenty feet in the air to catch the ball". Not possible, not going to happen, or instantly overpowering others without roleplaying it out and seeing whether or not they would are all ways to powergame.

 

In-Character Information:
Complete the following biography on your character:

Full Name:  Nova Tarre

Current Age: 22

 

Gender: Female

Race: Human

Past / History:

 

Nova grew up in a forest with her parents, Tamriel and Gorran. She learned an ancient language that she puzzled out of an obscure book as well as the common language. She grew up loving mushroom stew, ale, and tricks. As she grew she began to grow conniving, fueled by the ignorance of her mother and the disdain of her reluctant father. Soon she found herself kicked out of her home, for she was too much for her parents to handle. She found herself a fast learner of anger and shadows, and was shunned for her acerbic, sarcastic, almost caustic nature. She learned how to sprinkle sweetness atop her actions, how to coat her words in sugar that hid the venom, even as she learned how to do more harm with them.

 

Shortly, Nova became a master of saying the most disturbing, hateful, harmful things in the most gracious manner. She also learned how to sneak around and dig up dirt on people she didn't like.

Ambitions for the Future:

 

Nova hopes to become powerful and gain as much power and money as she can.

Personality:  Nova is witty, but acerbic and caustic. She can smile at you in one instant and in the next wipe the blade that killed you on your cloak; this is the type of personality she has. She has not killed another without just cause thus far, but it is likely that one day, she will.

Skills: Charisma, Speech, Sneaking, Lying, Languages

[b]Open-Response-Questions[/b]

[i]Each question in this section must be answered with a minimum of one paragraph which must describe the event in full. Please be as descriptive as possible and do not break character or lore at any point.[/i]
____

[b]1. Whilst in the mighty human capital you notice a dark-clothed figure stealthily making his way towards the Emperor’s palace - he is clearly up to no good. There are guards within shouting distance - what do you do?[/b]

Answer: Nova noted the cloaked figure and the guards. With a laugh, she headed towards the guards and began making a distraction for the other. Her fellow comrade-in-shadows would not do anything she disliked or she would find retribution for the actions, and it wouldn't be too hard to fix whatever was done. In fact, before they got anywhere past the inside of the walls, she'd be finding them and making sure of their intentions.


[b]2. Whilst wandering in the deep oak forest you come across a large clearing, in which sits a small cobbled cottage. Outside it stands an unstable old man armed with a small iron blade, surrounded by two heavily armed bandits - they appear to be threatening him. You are armed with leather armour and an iron longsword, how do you react?[/b]

Answer: Nova would smirk and dispatch them-- the guards, that is. Whether or not they felt ready to face her, they weren't. When both lay dead, she confronted the man and began negotiating the price of her assistance. Once she found out he had a decent amount of money, she killed him, too, and usurped his household, planning only to stay there as long as it took to find a new place.


I already answered three open-ended-questions for my other char, and these weren't found on the 'second account application' form, so I figured I'd just do my favorite two. :)

 

I know I didn't put quite as much effort in for poor Nova as I did for Velu but I'm a bit tired.

 

 

EDIT: Someone was concerned that I may have been plagiarizing; I copied from my own app, so don't say that.

Congratulations it was a good application. Please wait patiently for a GM to implement you, it can take some time.
